Be very still and listen. I ask for
nothing more, for when you become still you become emptied of all that
would clutter you up, emptied of all the old and are ready to be refilled
with the new. As long as you are straining and striving you are not free,
you are not empty, there is no room for the new to enter. You cannot put
new wine in old bottles, you cannot put an old piece of cloth on a new
garment any more than you can expect to be filled with the new while you
are still clinging on to the old. In absolute peace and stillness you can
become emptied of everything, waiting to be filled with the Spirit of
truth.
