ON LOVING OUR EGO...RESIST NOT

We are learning unto accepting that the Sermon's resist not evil means precisely that: Resist not evil. Not to put too fine a point on it, but not resisting resist not evil is a spiritual education on its own.

Resist not evil must needs take us way deeper into higher consciousness...where we breathe in loving kindness and breathe out peace, love and joy. In that, our meditation mantra, evil is transmuted, and loving kindness begins to grow from within out. 

We accept that this is not the place where we live 24/7, yet we recognize our ongoing need for ego-deflation in depth which clarifies our goal...to adjust our self spirtually to the world we live in.

Comes now the turning point: The place where our exchanged mind ceases to fight our ego and commences to love it...or, in truth, to be willing to love it. What else but our own ego would keep us seeking still more spiritual growth so diligently, so urgently? 

Blinding flash of the obvious: Loving our ego is akin to loving an incredibly spoiled child...wanting to gets us nada, and giving in to the child or to ego is not loving it. We need a power greater than ourself to break the code.

There's our key. Our road back to God lies in the inner realization of resist not evil. Loving the rough and rutted road paved by our rues, regrets and remorses, God's slivers of gold, is our way back to God. 

When we can love our ego, then we have ceased fighting everything and everybody. We resist not. 

Thank you.
