38. What is the dharma?
Following the truth in your heart will always lead you towards the
greater, happier and brighter possibilities. Sometimes this is winning,
and sometimes it is following the rules. Sometimes it is coming out
of the closet, and other times it is looking the other way.

As you say, there are too many variables, and indeed the situation is
continuous, and even, for that matter, it is true right now. If your
life is following your dharma, your personal truth, you are living in
light. There is a feeling that though you might die tomorrow, there
is nothing more you could have done... no regrets.. none.

So what is the dharma? Sometimes it is the dharma to be wrong, to
lose, to win or to be right. Then by awakening, you are better
equipped to know what the dharma is. Books and advise are from the
past and can only guide you to a certain point, ultimately leaving you
stranded on the island of "now".
