| Summary of Tape No 150 20 January 1980 "Simply Sit and Be" |
| In this brief communication, Bartholomew addresses the common pursuit of happiness, suggesting that instead of altering one's external environment, one should focus on cultivating inner stillness.
He emphasizes the significance of allowing life to unfold as it is and recommends developing the ability to listen deeply within oneself, as this leads to the discovery of the true self. Many people often feel disconnected despite following a spiritual path, and he attributes this to the lack of inner silence and joy of simply being. The goal is not to reject life or become unproductive, but to experience calmness, openness, and an appreciation for the present moment. By embracing this inner stillness, one can find genuine delight in existence and the journey itself, without the need to constantly seek external validation or accumulation. |
