A theme i have been playing with for eons is the impulse to do something about the suffering of the world in a way that feels burdensome and depletes this life force. The deepest part of me Knows the Being is the answer. It knows that any action taken from the mind may end up exasperating the situation. I have been witnessing how the density and suffering of the world have prevented me in engaging fully in life at least until now. I needed to shield this sensitive energy AND I took on the suffering as a personal burden less and less but still in a way that does not serve.
This was just highlighted to me in a group I was facilitating. Like I have to do something that the circle was ending and seemingly big suffering was still present. This impulse to do, to figure out something to do actually blocks Presence and depletes me. Just saying. I set the intention which is now in motion to maintain the aspect of self that cares deeply without feeling impelled all the time to do something in a way that actually blocks me from living fully, living joyfully. Play in progress to find the way through. Many thanks to the friends with me in this exploration especially the beloved Friend who pointed out this still semi conscious pattern.
