If we want to see change in the world…
Our responsibility is to effect and be that change…
Practical implementation, an essential part of that change – of course… But for social transformation, our part is in our own individual transformation…
We must be that change.
By raising our level of consciousness in every moment; moment by moment by moment.
Every single moment, never ceasing in our awareness…
Can we always, with each breath we take, be kind, clear, non reactive – with the thoughts that flow from us always loving ones… ? If we cannot do this, and often we only have to look across at our own families to find we cannot – then there is work to be done…
As Ram Dass, the spiritual teacher said ‘ if you think you are enlightened, go spend a week with your family…’
Walking in the park on a lovely sunny evening; Anadi and I heard two young women – walking too – talking, not very kindly, about another; snippets of conversation… Disregard, dislike distrust often prevalent.
Observation is very different to criticism, and only we truly in hearts know the difference….
For true global evolution, all must be cleansed from within our own hearts…
By going within and not looking out – at the other. ‘Their fault, they are to blame…’
Instead look within…
‘Where am I cutting off love to those in front of me? And so cutting off love to myself’…Our own inner work driving the social change is the change that will change the world.
Raise consciousness… Deepen the healing
Within
And so without…
Energy playing out, in an ever repeating cycle…
Until we are still; and see beyond the madness of this samsara
This duality
This dark and light
And find the silence in our hearts; and feel the love which heals the world
Infinite love
