The hook is that we come to nonresistance, acceptance, gratitude by way of resistance, etc. We tend to reject the idea...no, the need...to accept that which is unacceptable to our own thinking, our reasoning mind.
We take a step upward with the realization that our reasoning mind is but a way station on the road to spiritual consciousness, a necessary way station, apparently...there for us to meet the error of our thinking, a.k.a., crash and burn.
The word without the bark on it: ego-deflation in depth.
We do not get to that level of ego-deflation without our egoic mind feeling shame, pain, regrets and remorse...in effect, mentally beating our breast and wailing, "Why me?"
Our gut-bucket desire for still more spiritual growth is the invisible gnawing that brings us to the "Why me?" answer. Namely, personal powerlessness...that place where we are mystically peaced.
We rest in the realization that our Father is our need.
Thank you.
