How well do we accept things as they are, without feeling the need for improvement?
Can we be silent and serene like the current full Moon?
What example do we set for others?
Are we truly living in harmony with All That Is?
How sympathetic are we to another’s point of view?
These are some good questions from Kua 20. Particulary good ones for me to be asking myself after yesterday’s ego trip—see blog of 7-15-11.
Today’s message is inspired by the I CHING Kua 20. It’s time to lighten the mind.
Reverent Solitude enables one to gain an overview, observe from a detached position, increase understanding and integrate through refection. The current full Moon energy can enhance such contemplation.
The result of contemplation can be this insight, “I am all that I perceive; all that is resides in me.”
Sometimes we don’t want to admit that to ourselves—we believe that any disharmony that we experience comes from outside of us. In contemplation we can see the truth clearly—we just need the larger view that meditative equipoise can provide. It is like going to the mountain top again and attaining the overview.
