With many of the peoples of this world being forced to curtail their social activities during this time of the Coronavirus pandemic, it occurs to me that this is increasing the possibilities for interpreting one's experiences with others through the lens of fear, perceiving others with a sense of critical assessment and harsh, prejudicial judgement. With a hardened heart, and a view of one's self as more important and other's as less so, one is quickly on the path of separation and service-to-self, with an increased perspective of one's self-importance.
With the personal objective of these times being to "to open the heart in compassion, love and understanding", this type of reaction to the Coronavirus situation might be considered spiritually limiting and counter-productive to one's evolution.
Following my meditation yesterday morning, I was left thinking how I might avoid such a trap and instead, confirm and support my efforts to open my heart in service-to-others.
Later in the day I happened to pick up Book 3 of The Law of One. I thought that it was strange that I would do so, as I had not really been drawn to that subject matter for a number of years. With that recognition, I decided to take a step of faith and open the book randomly to read the first thing that presented itself. It was, perhaps unsurprisingly, on the topic of the conscious processing of Catalyst (the events and circumstances one is presented with in this incarnate experience) to engage the higher energy centres, such as the Heart Chakra.
Without a spiritually informed world view, one might conclude that there was no relationship to my prior concerns about lockdown. Instead, I observed the synchronicity of the passage read as actually being an answer to my earlier concerns and recognised the reward of purposefully taking a step in faith, to be influenced by a higher intelligence. I would never have had the keenness of mind to so succinctly conclude that consciously processing the situations experienced in lock-down through the heart chakra is the answer. Yet there it was in black and white on the randomly opened pages in front of me.
The lesson was, that even though there may be limited opportunities to interact with others in enforced isolation, one can still commit to their practice of developing one's awareness and spiritual growth on the positive path, by:
- providing support and encouragement to others where they can;
- recognising and appreciating the support and encouragement offered by others; and
- processing situations through the heart and the filter of loving kindness.
For more perspective on the "vulnerability" of loosing the intensity or focus of the Heart Chakra, consider this quote from the Law of One. In it, the "rays" correspond to the respective Chakra energy centres.
The portion covered is this: the green-ray activation is always vulnerable to the yellow or orange ray of possession, this being largely yellow ray but often coming into orange ray. Fear of possession, desire for possession, fear of being possessed, desire to be possessed: these are the distortions which will cause the deactivation of green-ray energy transfer.
The new material is this: once the green ray has been achieved, the ability of the entity to enter blue ray is immediate and is only awaiting the efforts of the individual. The indigo ray is opened only through considerable discipline and practice largely having to do with acceptance of self, not only as the polarized and balanced self but as the Creator, as an entity of infinite worth. This will begin to activate the indigo ray.
I hope everyone who reads this may find some small benefit from it.
Namaste.
