Here we are the
morning after last night’s total lunar eclipse labeled the Super Blood Wolf Moon! Above is my best photo. At sunset time, the skies were starting to
cloud over, but by the time the eclipse was starting, around 8:45 PM, it had
cleared up quite nicely!
Today, I just wanted
write a bit more about the discussion our launching group had yesterday before
we did the actual launch. There is great
benefit to getting together in person every once in a while to share insights
and information. The key concept here is
“in person”. Our discussion centered on
the fact that because there is so much information that is widely available out
there on the internet, many people are using that forum as the main way that
they are getting information on spiritual topics. The benefit is that they are exposed to information
that they would not have ordinarily, which can be a good thing.
The down side is
that information alone does not assist one in their spiritual evolutionary work. There is the temptation to think that the
more one knows, the more spiritually adept one is. That just isn’t true. Your spiritual path is mainly an internal
one, and does not depend on feeding the mind with externally acquired information. Remember, your mind is just a tool, and
should not be running the show.
Long time readers of
this blog may notice that I do just a rare bit of referencing or quoting of other
people’s information. I do not have time
to go out and seek that information. If
it comes to me spontaneously, then I am meant to have it. It is also how I keep my teachings clear and
original. Of course, the one exception
is George Kavassilas’ work. I consider
his original teachings to be timeless and invaluable.
If the internet with
its YouTube videos, a monthly subscription that you are paying to a spiritual
expert, or even books are all you have available, then that is better than
nothing. At a certain point, though, the
real internal engagement has to take precedence. By connecting with your body’s sensations and
emotions instead of your head, you are employing your internal guidance system.
You have all you need within you, and you can source the “All That Is” for any
information that you require. If you can
get together in person with like minded spiritual individuals from time to
time, all the better.
