Beautiful Minds Inspire Others
This is such a beautiful quote. It's been created in gold to represent The Master Work of alchemy... turning less precious elements into more precious ones.. more precious because they are uncommon...
The Master Work is not a common journey so those that learn & do it are few... when a mind like this shares it's wisdom... it has the potential to ignite in the heart of the listener... a spark of awareness of their true life path.
The other morning we were listening to an audiobook about Near Death Experiences (NDEs) & there was a common thread that ran through each story. The soul temporarily free of it's body was shown a review of their life by the spirit of God (an unconditionally loving energy)... they felt first hand the suffering they had caused others & they were also shown moments in alignment with God.
God aligned moments (aka love) were often the smallest of things the person had no memory of until they were shown it again. The message was these small, kind gestures reflect the heart of God. The soul got to feel what that meant to the other person. Maybe they were kind to someone who many are mean to or maybe it was when they held a heavy door open for an elderly person.
I believe that my own life journey has the purpose of teaching me first hand the importance of compassion & empathy. We can be infinitely resilient when we believe our life has a meaning & a purpose. A resilience & peace that surpasses all understanding. I feel with my limited human understanding that I have embraced this lesson deeply into my heart & being.
It's almost like my life review is happening now during my life - with this thread anyway. It is of the utmost importance to me to treat others with compassion & empathy because my life has blessed me with an ever-present awareness of what the absence of these does to the human heart. I endeavour to never to be the cause of someone feeling that way.
As I've grown in wisdom I've also become a lot more discerning of what I am accountable for & what I am not. A new behaviour of mine is to let go of other people's responsibilities. They may have themselves utterly convinced that I am the cause of their pain & they may have even convinced the whole world of that too. And it doesn't touch me. To pick up somebody else's responsibility would be to deny them of their most powerful lessons & potential growth.
The most loving, compassionate & empathic thing I could do for anyone is to allow them to be, to learn & to grow & to fully accept the freedom we all have to do so or not. At this time in my life I am not interacting with many people on a daily basis. I initially felt sad while listening to the NDE audiobook that I wasn't exercising acts of compassion & empathy toward others on a daily basis.. yet I've just realised well actually I do. Every time I connect with the energetic world & simply observe the physical world go by / do what it does / that is an act of compassion & empathy & forgiveness.
It is also not wise or recommended to connect by interacting with energies that are not in alignment with our goals & purpose. When I am operating completely from my mind / ego I have reactive moments of judgement. And then my higher self teaches me "Every time you connect with energies not aligned with yours you are choosing to alter your own energy in a direction that is not true to you".
Keep it light & bright. Keep the focus on oneself's journey & goals & give energy ONLY to things aligning with that. Master your mind, master your life. Every time we get distracted by other energies we are diluting our power, messing with our mix.
I've been reminded of the importance of connecting regularly throughout my waking moments with God. To get still, slow down & deepen my breathing & be. Connecting with God energy is an infinite source of unconditional love & is the source of everything I will ever need. I realised that although I am not interacting with people much these days... God is there all the time, anytime... the most beautiful mind of all is this one... always honest, always has my best interests at heart, unconditionally loving, infinitely inspiring.
