Thoughts on transforming fear & self importance
I wrote this a couple days ago but didn't get it posted...
As I see it, the human ego is becoming more & more polarized, as is the planet. We, the human ego, as a collective thought form, are creating a more & total separation from God. We are running frightened, scurrying around trying to fix & analyze everything that presents itself to us. We are supporting all the current wars & battles on the planet with our thoughts of dangerous others. They are not like us, they must be killed or they will kill us. This perpetual (ego) war will never be won until we are one. One mind, one soul, one belief in the goodness of all mankind. One transmuted ego.
We have the potential to be a peaceful, gentle ego living on a healthy, prosperous , as in creative, planet. Our planet is in trouble. We can change this by changing ourselves. Transforming ourselves into the whole & beautiful beings we were intended to be. Let us all walk, in simplicity toward a new planet, created by newly tranformed human egos. The simplicity of super conscious thought is what we need to move toward... thinking in a new way!!! Real Magic 101.
We define ourselves by our disease, our limitations. We see this as real, as truth, because we feel the pain of it. What if our joy, our beauty, our Grace was real! Can we feel the truth in that?
My self importance comes up so often at work, at least I see it more clearly in that setting. It can be so busy & chaotic. I respond with my usual, safe form of "self importance," which comes across as anger & irritation, yes, petulance. I think & suggest out loud that it might be fixed this way or that & it is often misinterpreted as judgment & criticism. I can see myself in these moments, in hindsight, as egocentric in the ego jungle at work. Instead, by practicing silence & simplicity, as suggested in a recent reading by our teacher, thank you Sylvia, I can be in Grace, where my spirit can soar in love & cooperation. As I transform myself, I transform the world, one person at a time.
