I was reading Sanat Kumara’s talk to us on An Hour with an Angel and I reached a point in it where my heart swelled with love.
And I remembered how much love – not transformative love, but very pleasant all the same – I felt in the years after the vision (1) because of a decision I made.
I resolved from that moment on to read nothing but the works of enlightened authors.
Oh, my heavens, what a wonderful next ten years I had. For ten years after that, I wrote on nothing but enlightenment, drawing on those sources.
And now, as I search for ways to refashion all my behavior so that it is “of love,” I feel a great attraction to making that decision again.
I felt a little embarrassed to find that a crisis had erupted in Indiana over gay rights and I hadn’t been aware of it. But I still don’t want to go back to reading mainstream media.
We all will have to specialize at some point and I feel the need to bear down and specialize to find a new way.
So I’m letting go of the guilt I feel at not keeping up with world news and burrowing down into the literature that I’ve always loved – the literature of enlightenment. The draw on me is almost impossible to resist at this moment.
If I can’t go off to a Himalayan mountain because it isn’t in my soul contract, I can bring the mountain to me. In no other time could we do that, but in this one we can.
