Vision Quest – 4

The Right time

 

Sorah (Susan) Strum Dubitsky, PhD, is a psychologist and Fellow of the Center for the Study of Spirituality at Florida International University, where she also teaches.  The author of A Chorus of Wisdom:  Notes of Spiritual Living (Ulysses Press, September 2005), Dubitsky set out on her own quest for life meaning 25 years ago, prompted by what she describes as feelings of chronic emptiness.

 

These feelings manifested in a periodic barrage of who am I,” she explains.  My own religious backbground, conservative Judalism, never provided the answers to my existential questions, so I did not turn to religion for help.  Instead, she says, a combination of therapy and astrology led her to begin exploring her deeper, innermost needs.  Astrology opened her to the possibility of an unseen fabric to life, to the realization that she was part of something larger.

 

“I believe that once the seeker’s spark gets ignited, something shifts in the seeker’s DNA,” says Dubitsky.  “The right path makes itself known, and that parth will be different for everyone.  So it becomes like a flight plan or a trajectory; but when you do, the discomfort of being off it becomes too difficult to ignore.”
