Step 11 — Prayer and Meditation – Joe C. – 1998 – Session 34
About This Speaker Tape
Joe C. maps out the 'sixth sense of direction,' a tool for the spiritually bankrupt. He remembers the days when prayer was just a plea to get out of a 'damn mess' or treating a Higher Power like an errand boy.
He describes the morning struggle where the 'sucker' of a mind turns on and won't clear out. To combat this, he uses a literal sheet of paper, marking a slow migration from the self-willed left side to the Higher Power-willed right side. He argues that most men spend more time checking the air in their tires or feeding the dog than they do checking the fuel in their own minds.
The result of this discipline isn't a vague feeling, but the concrete ability to ride a train through the English Channel at 200 miles an hour and tour Reykjavik, Iceland—milestones that remained impossible as long as he was drinking.
