Working on uncontional sharing & a quote
Mood:  bright
Topic: Spiituality, Dreams

Working on unconditional sharing & quote from Honey From the Rock a book by Lawrence Kushner
Current mood: awake
Category: Religion and Philosophy

Things always happen for a reason as the cliche goes & since I have made a more active & proactive committment to my spiritual path I am beginning to see that the only reason is to give us opportunities to transform our issues at a soul level so we can reveal Light to the world. Yesterday I posted a meditation tool, a phrase I learned in the Kabbalah class I am taking at the Kabbalah Centre, "I only want to get the Light of the Creator." This phrase is the key to understanding what real unconditional sharing means. It means we dont need to take or steal Light or energy from others. It means we dont need recognition, thanks or anything in return for anything we do or say. It means that the only motivation in unconditional sharing is to receive the Light of the Creator from the Creator. This Light is endless & when we tap into it there is never any need to take from others & also others can never drain us or harm us. However, it is important to never judge others who are not able to unconditionally share. The moment we blame others for anything it means we are focusing on ourselves and no longer connected to the Light. We also must have undrstanding and compassion for ourselves. It takes time, persistence and perseverence to get to a place of pure unconditional sharing all of the time and the first step is awareness of our own selfishness, our own reactivity and our own issues that we need to correct ourselves. We are always the cause of our own lives. This is where my understanding of what I am learning and where I am trying to go with that learning in my own journey of healing and transformation. I hope it helps others to reveal the Light to themselves and each other. We are all in this together. Separation is an illusion. With that I am going to end with a quote from the book, Honey From the Rock by Lawrence Kushner. Part of this quote is in my status for today. "Where does a person end and begin?....Where does anything begin and another thing end?....Why have we so ruthlessly superimposed borders on things?....Maybe there are no 'objects.' Maybe we have only invented them." (pp145-146). :)
