Throughout his life, my mentor J. Krishnamurti maintained that Truth is a pathless land. However, he clarified that unless order has been created in one's life, one would not touch the cosmic order usually referred to as Truth, God, etc. According to him, once you set your own house in order, you don't have to DO anything for Truth to knock your door; you just have to WAIT (until Truth enters your BEING like a breeze), which doesn't mean that other activities in your life come to a grinding halt. He also talked of laying the right kind of foundation in one's life, emphasising moral uprightness and righteous conduct.
Apart from an intense awareness of the movement of life in one's immediate environment as well as whatever is going on in one's mental environment, WAITING, to my mind, implies floating rather than swimming OR effortlessly soaring rather than laboriously flying through the immense sky of life.
