Blinding flash of the obvious: We are the source of all the upheaval we are experiencing in our world today.
The key there is "in our world." In our consciousness. The view of the univerdal upheaval I am seeing is probably not the view of billionaires, preachers, teachers, and teen queens.
My letting others have their view (hard!), shucking me of mine (harder!) needs be realized as one seek...the spiritual quest. Each requires inside help which can't even begin without trust...then God, God's slivers of gold (our uh-ohs), God's will, God's way all work together for good.
Changing our mind, which we have learned cannot be done by self-will alone, is the way out of our turmoil. Nonresistance...resist not evil...is the way to not enter into turmoil, and neither can that be self-willed. We go to God for God...the help we need shows up.
It all...i.e., life itself...comes down to God alive and active in our consciousness. With side trips for the egoic mind to strut its stuff else what's spiritual growth for?
Our reasoning mind doing its thing, i.e., thinking, happens with God's knowledge and, apparently, approval...hard lessons learned are God's gifts to us. Face it, we need a way to hone our basically base nature.
If God didn't approve, he would have long since changed life as we live it. Only he has the power which he channels through us however we choose to make ourself available for him. According to me.
There's no wrong way to do the right thing...just longer ways to get there.
Thank you.
