A Rabbinic text from the ninth century declares that every person is accompanied, at all times, by a procession of angels crying out, 'Make way, for an image of the Holy One is approaching!'
Every time I come across that quote, I shiver in awe ... sometimes in hopes of the truth of it and sometimes trying to picture the truth of it. There, my reasoning mind trying to raise me up...I hug her, I kiss her, and I whisper thank you as I let her float/fly.
Comforting lesson learned...our reasoning mind is on our side; she just needs to remain in the backseat to our still-evolving spiritual sense. What peace...to know a friend in reasoning mind. Now I welcome friendship in egoic mind.
Or...here's a better thought...our reasoning mind is one in the procession of angels accompanying us, making way for the Holy One. That being so, our egoic mind cannot be far behind as one in that same procession of angels.
Earlier, as I was being stripped of my old and welcoming my new realization of reasoning mind, I had a mini blinding flash...the thought eased up from my Soul, and I knew: I am not alone.
Ah, my reasoning mind is working her new wings for my spiritual growth. She is with me, within me, for me... I am not alone.
Thank you.
