GUIDED, NOT GUARDED...THANK YOU

The senses have been conditioned by attraction to the pleasant and aversion to the unpleasant; [we] should not be ruled by them; they are obstacles in the path. - Sri Krishna (Bhagavad Gita) - from Eknath Easwaran, "Words to Live By," October 2

My following note, written in 2018 - "I am becoming unruled and it does not yet feel pleasant...thank you."  

Morning blinding flash of the obvious: I need open to love for Trump for who needs it more? He is akin to the monster that Golas wrote about in "Lazy Man's Guide" who, when others ran from it, asked, "What was it that you thought needed to be loved?" Love and love alone is the change needed in my attitude to and for Trump...and also for his followers (afterthought).

The conditioning of my senses continue being unruled...only now I am mostly comforted, usually at peace, often happy, and...who's kidding whom?...completely surprised. More than a few "this ain't me!" changes have happened within me/without me, and I pay my respects to the Father within who does the work. 

I know for certain sure that I will stray, that I will be returned, that I am being guided, no longer guarded, and there it is, the great get up and shout alleluia! news.  And thank you.  

Thank you.
