THE BRIGHT ASUNDER

Anything made Asunder can be viewed in more than one piece, 
can be studied for its integral parts. It might be like studying a recipe. 

Something bright is illuminated. It is ripe.
 Therefore, The Bright Asunder is a staging area wherein 
you may study brightly lit aspects of the Whole.

We suggest you begin this survey by studying the self. List, without prejudice and denial, both your best three and worst three character traits. Let us look at them in The Bright Asunder, viewing the pieces separately, as unrelated yet to the Whole. What do you find? Have any of these six characteristics been hidden? Have any grown larger than the other aspects? Have some hidden behind others?

Are you remarkably angry—or is your fear, which is hiding behind the anger, driving you to lash out in angry behavior? What then is the concern? Is the concern the anger, or is it the fear? Be honest with your self. Anger can be justified, cathartic, and a powerful tool. Anger can also be a knee-jerk reaction, covering the source-cause in caustic fire.

Are you a victim—or are you covering for the apathy that causes you to avoid any responsibility in making changes, empowering the self, and hiding behind excuses? Are you dull-witted—or does your need to be accepted keep you from voicing opinions that go against the group? What is the status quo worth to you? What is the source of your suffering? After removing fear, dread, guilt, and doubt, how can you grow the self through unobstructed empowerment?

Sometimes we see the portrait of self as so balanced, shadow and light, left and right, up and down, back and forward, we avoid seeing the flaws. We avoid the missed brush strokes, the aggrandization of what is noble, and the avoidance of what is rotten. Study your portrait in The Bright Asunder. Look at the pieces that combine to make the Whole.

Your are a reflection of Great All. You construct and reconstruct Its parts. If you see something in the world that is ugly or unsatisfying, what has been your contribution in creating It? Do not look to others for this blame (though certainly hold others accountable where needed). Look to the self and the aspects of the self. Embrace both the beauty and the grotesque.

Paint your own portrait. Place each color and stroke with care and accuracy. If you are unhappy with the final rendering, work to change its components. Studying the self in The Bright Asunder will make you a better artist—a better Creator—and a better Spirit and Soul.
