The headliner is so true, but at the same time questions may arise when trying to implement this phrase in real life.

When looking at the outside world, we see with our eyes and feelings arise. That is the most common happening for most people. And there is a huge variety of feelings at our disposal.

What is meant by the phrase about "the Sage is guided by what he feels, not by what he sees" is that the Sage has at a certain point in life started investigating his inner world. It may have started by feeling inside his body, sensing the movements and activities going on in the body during each moment of the day. For example, you drink a cup of tea and you follow the tea flowing into your body and witness the sensations from that happening.

Or, you were confronted with something in the outer world and instead of the action - reaction habit, you first turn inwardly to start witnessing your inner movements and feelings to find out what is really going on. 

Many times you will be surprised about your own inner world.

What is required for this 'witnessing' is becoming still, just turning your vision back inside yourself and noticing what happens.

Of course, you will have to be alone for that at first without distractions from things around you. Maybe you will not notice immediately, there may be thoughts coming up or other issues that are going around on the inside of yourself. But there is no need to go with those, except if you feel you need to. There is nothing to be afraid of either, because there simply is no reason to be afraid of yourself (you are your own best friend!)

If you keep doing this practice every day, you will begin training yourself at a regular basis, on the long run it will become natural to turn inwardly more frequently and in the end you will not even notice that you are doing it this anymore. It has become natural again.

What we want to share here, is that it is possible to become much more aligned with yourself and your most subtle inner body (your natural state of being).

From your natural inner state of being, you will become much more clear towards the happenings in the outer world as well. You do not always need your eyes anymore to tell you what you see, because your intuition will guide you.

What we present here now, are the first basic steps to start with. But we can assure you that a tremendous deepening will start to grow gradually, as long as you keep inquiring into the depths of your own being.

This is what is meant by "the Sage is guided by what he feels, not by what he sees".
