SYMPATHY

The mortal world has various views on Sympathy. Is it to pity? Is it to lessen? Is it to separate or divide? Think of how your culture specifically reacts with its grieving population: Do they treat the widow of a recognized war hero differently from the widow of an avowed murderer of innocent masses? Which widow might feel more emotional pain, isolation, guilt, suffering, shame, and burden?

How does your culture view its orphans, its homeless, its very poor, its insane, its displaced, and its incarcerated populations? Do they treat each group the same, or do they blame some, and hold others blameless? How is the regional/ cultural/ social Sympathy applied to these peoples?

What of unique populations that are considered dangerous to the culture that contains them? Whether we speak of Lepers, masses of unexpected immigrants, war- or disease- orphaned families, violent persons, or enslaved others, does the Sympathy given come with a negating dose of justification that explains why the entrapment, injustice, cruelty, or torture, is necessary and vindicated?

What is Sympathy? Is it the state of looking upon a lesser condition and being moved by pity, or feeling compassion for the state of the entity involved? You remember the difference between Looking and Seeing. Your mortal self, led by ego, fears involvement with anything that reduces the current state of the mortal self, whether that be physical comfort, status, or standing. Your current beliefs and fears have formed an illusory ground beneath you, causing you to feel false security—your standing—where you make your stand, the place from which you view your world and label things. Your current brand of Sympathy is birthed from your standing and filtered from all the riggings your ego, your busy mind, and your mortal self, have constructed for it.

But . . . real Sympathy is Accord. It is a very High and very Pure state, driven by what is Eternal. And as we frequently remind you/You, you/You are part of That Eternity.

When you Have Sympathy, you Become Sympathy: that is . . . you begin to harmonize with the conditions of what is needed, accepting with unconditional love, and without false judgment, what is presented. We often need to fill uncomfortable spaces with words and objects, and ceremonies that have long ago lost their meaning, when what is needed is what is Real and True.

Imagine that you are the grieving widow. Person ‘A,’ with whom you are well acquainted, enters the reception line at the funeral. Though you are exhausted and feeling only half in your body, the tenseness of Mrs. A is palpable. She does not want to be here. She does not want to see you like this. She’s very glad your sister is in town, so that she was not ask to step up and fulfill those selfsame duties. She’s been practicing what to say, but when she gets to you, she falters, and like the people before her, says, “I’m so sorry for your loss . . .”

Mrs. A has erected a fence. Each person who will not come into Accord with the widow’s grief, rejects the widow’s grief. Instead of being a support system for the widow, the widow is being asked to be a support system for those in attendance, because death makes them uncomfortable.

Extending Sympathy is a state of being entirely present for What Is . . . As It Is . . . 

Wholly . . . Without Condition . . . Without A Price. 

Sympathy conveys the message: “We see You. You are Here with Us and 

We are Here with You. Always. We Understand. 

There is Love. For You. For Me. For All of Us. 

It Is Everywhere, and UnEnding.”

Sympathy is not pity. 

Sympathy is Accord. 

Accord is the state of Great All, 

and The Great All is All That Is.

When you share Sympathy, you are in the Moment, 

sharing All That Is, and at perfect Accord with the Heart of Great All. 

It is the greatest Illumination . . . and It is called Love.

 THE WAY

The Way is more than the path before you; it is the collaboration of behavior, experience, and intention that plots the points on the map ahead. It tells you when to walk softly, when to sit and rest, and when to move with great speed and authority. The Way works in tandem with the Spirit and Soul, helping to move you ahead, and also making sure that you meet with the beneficial points between doorways.

The Way is your Dance combined with your Song. It is how you move and why you move. It calibrates what you would like to experience with the delight of what you didn’t consciously know you should or would experience. The Way is your tour guide, your confidante, your companion.

At what point do you currently stand? What point appears on your horizon? Which points between seem most likely to be experienced? How do all the points change as you move? Which shifts in the great tapestry bring the greatest delight?

You may come to wisdom through difficult and even tragic circumstance; you may gain wisdom through deep study and solitude. You may acquire authority by external means or by internal. You may meet your self at age 40 or 100. You may move with purpose, and you may move when you are forced. The Way guides it all.

Way: mode/ manner/ perspective

When your mode, manner, and perspective is Loving, The Way guides you in Loving Ways. When your mode, manner, and perspective is Diminishing, The Way guides you in Diminishing Ways. It is your self that programs The Way. To experience the Highest and most Loving journey, make sure your input is helpful and true.

SHUSHAN

 from Hebrew: “lotus or lily, to feel joyful or cheerful”

Do you expect Joy?

 Do you believe that attaining

 Joy will offer Satisfaction?

Is Joy a goal?

Look at the Lily. Does the Lily expect Joy, chase it, believe that it will lead to the next (and better) thing? Does the Lily enjoy the soil, its roots, the crawling and wriggling things? The sun and the stars and the moon and the rain? Does the Lily enjoy What-Is-Already-Here?

Does the Lily feel complete? Connected? Does the Lily feel its Purpose? Does it give and receive Joy? Does it Listen and does it Sing? Is a Lily’s life balanced and whole? Is a Lily’s life complete?

How does your Life compare to the Lily? If you are contemplating Life, you must be at least grateful for the ability to contemplate. What else can you be grateful for?

 ALONE IN THE NEVER.ALONE

You are never Alone. You are a sentient being living among sentient beings. You are a product of magic and an amalgam of history, future, and the Co-Creative ebb and flow of What Is. There is always someone nearby who Sees you, Hears you, and Understands you. Help is always within reach. 

Who are you—this human living on this planet, circling the sun in this universe? What is the goal Of You? What is the Purpose Of You? What story has been devised For You? 

The quieter you are, the more you will feel the support. Quiet brings calm. It makes connections. It allows you to hear things—especially the things you didn’t know were lacking. The Quiet brings you closer to your True Nature. It confirms that you are Never Alone, but that you can have an individual experience (Alone) in the Never.Alone. 

Embrace your larger nature. Take time to manage the space where you can be quiet and listen to the Never.Alone. Once acquainted, you will never feel Alone again.

 ASSEMBLAGE

Your solar days contain twenty four hours. You use your days differently than anyone else. How do some accomplish much and some, so little, and what is the difference? Your Assemblage, and another’s Assemblage can contain the same pieces, yet yield remarkably different results.

Give a child a crayon and paper and see what they create. Children are idea manufacturers. Encouraged, they reflect the world in colors of Joy. They seek Love and share Love. While quantifying the absolute core of their world and Its living inhabitants as similar and unified, they still display the irrevocable and inimical Self-ness that is a Gift to each.

Do you make lemonade from your lemons, or do you dry the seeds and make a necklace? Do you study your materials and without judging them, bring them together for the best and most beautiful result—or do you see inferior materials and complain that you can make nothing? Somewhere in your materials there is a masterpiece waiting to emerge. Can you see it?

 WHAT IS FOREGONE

What Is Foregone is illumined more brightly once it has passed. We think of the many ways we could have changed a circumstance, our reaction to it, and the outcome. With each experience we learn, grow stronger, and gather wisdom for future events. With training and repetition, we can dramatically change our relationship to what is Foregone, and therefore, the frame of reference from which we observe it in our present.

If you believe in simultaneous realities, you realize that what you change in the present shifts away from that center with a force that becomes change itself.

Remember the details of something Foregone, 
something you wish you could change or delete. 
Look at it as new information, delivered in the now, 
but perceived through the lens of who and what you currently are. 
How does it change your remembrance, and your relationship to it?

We can feel broken, and utterly destroyed. We can believe that life holds nothing for us, not in the present and not in the future, the weight of what is Foregone pulling us down and back. We may feel we have nothing left with which to continue. Look around you. Look back, forward, up and down—but do it freshly. Don’t return to the old tropes; make your assessments new.

What do you learn about your self? What do you learn about your life? How do you shift and change? Let old ideas be Foregone. Let new ideas expand your Light. 

Standing tall, look unflinchingly at Life and the World.
 To unplug from past wounds, 
you must be plugged-in.

 TELLING

Telling a story that is engaging, and engagingly shared, involves more than just what is captured by the physical ears. The flavors and textures of a story revealed is strengthened by the communicator’s voice, facial expressions (if applicable) and body language (same). Add illustrations to the story, and other rooms in the Telling house open.

You have heard it said that to be told how to do something unfolds a level of learning—and that its effectiveness can be increased by also showing—and increased further still by allowing the listener or pupil to actively participate. To do a thing as you are told and shown a thing makes the greatest impact. So: how does one best share an important story, concept, or idea? The greater the amount of senses activated, the greater is the impact.

Your core is constructed to respond in certain deep ways. Some of these ways may be socialized in you to be weaker, and some stronger. Are you a good listener? Are you a good story teller? What makes for High skill in these essential communications? Make a list of trigger words that cause immediate and predictable responses (or reactions) in your self.

Perhaps you are sensitive to curse words. 
Perhaps certain words remind you of negative experiences. 
Some words may feel magical. Some may feel empowering.

If we say: don’t forget your car keys, is this the same as saying: remember your car keys, or be sure to take your car keys? The first, using the words don’t forget, could be heard by your listener as more negative. To remember your car keys, depending on the tone and the references, may be neutral, positive, or negative. To be sure to take your car keys reflects surety. For most, this way may be the most empowering (unless the word sure or the idea of sureness reflects badly for you).

This must be first considered in your Telling, how you choose your words. Much is dependent upon your audience, and some is dependent upon your delivery. BLUE SKY is a popular neutral/positive. Most people feel soothed by a blue sky. To begin with Telling your audience that the sky is an angry gray and yellow sets a different mood.

We communicate this to you—these common ideas—because we urge you to consider all of your communication (mundane and important) as a storyteller considers it, as a poet, writer, singer, and artist considers it. Communication is powerful. Words are powerful. The delivery of words is powerful. Be strong, clear, and as uplifting as possible in your communications.

In an age of shaming, anger, exclusion, and hatred, we are also gifted with greater means to share what is filled with praise, love, compassion, and acceptance. Be a leader in this. We do not mean that you should inflate your Telling with empty phrases and promises. We mean that to communicate with direct and clear integrity allows you to speak not only to a listener with their mortal ears, but to reach beneath, into the subtle bodies, and make contact with the Listener

 that is eternal and sublime.

Speak to the Spirit and Soul, as well as the human. Consider that the world itself is alive and intelligent—that a rock is not a dumb stone, nor a snake a vile and mindless combatant. 

See the aliveness all around you. 
As you Listen to your World, your Spirit and Soul can 
guide you to the best lines and styles of communication.

 Embrace the many Songs of your World. 

To be an effective and compassionate Teller with the ability to 
shift your World, you must begin by listening.
