Being one's self and showing it...walking it...cannot be a self-determined objective. According to me, a self-determined objective is all about saving self...face, rep, money-honey...self in any and all forms.
Even as we pray to be, we do not have a clue how God will work that out. If we did, we'd no doubt back off p.d.q. The spiritual fact is that we have shown our being already in our life, too often listening to our ego's doubts and ignoring God's grace. Ego always speaks the loudest in our head.
It is in looking back that we know appreciation for the results, the gift. The gift not to us alone but to others, with us being included...almost as an afterthought. There...grace in a sliver of gold.
I seem to be at that me-unknown-to-me place. The inside change is I am loving and laughing before reason sees it for true. I only know my Santa Fe meeting frees me to be me and suffer the egoic regrets after...with my ego chanting "They must think I am a fool" and my Spirit loving and laughing. Whole new world for me for sure.
This morning I was led to read some recent BFOs, and they comfort me on this my journey:
3/29/22 Blinding flash of the obvious: Shuck the shield of what i know...detach from learned, let new-born flow forth...not to impress others but to depress self's image...return to the Cloud of Unknowing.
3/24/22 Blinding flash of the obvious: I may need to quit my reliance on the KJV's Sermon...for that is the consciousness of then, without regard to the fact that consciousness has risen. Every word written in the Sermon was Truth then...is still Truth, but that same Truth has risen deeper...each direction has a deeper meaning in higher consciousness.
3/2?/22 Blinding flash of the obvious: My learning-error in agree with your adversary quickly (and with resist not evil) is in saying nothing while continuing to mentally judge. We speak not for the egoic win (for self) but for open-ended agreement (for unity). Which cannot be done by the reasoning mind but by collaborating with the Spirit.
In the face of the unknown, of physical, mental, spiritual unrest or upheaval, go with God, stay with God, trust and be not afraid...or be afraid, it's just another nevermind to ever-present God.
So be it with us as with God. Love and laugh.
Thank you.
