There is evidence of that which is celestial in the common. If we can recognize this then we can learn. If you've ever seen a tree grow, you see it gain stature, strength, and mobility - it becomes a Beauty. But what do you see in yourself? We know we should be growing into gentler and more patient, wise, fearless beings. But the opposite is what manifests itself in us. Something has gone wrong with our growth process.
You have lost the ability to put yourself in the place of another. How many of you have trouble getting along with others? A person's presence produces a certain type of pain. Why is it so obvious where others are wrong? It's so easy to see because the same parts of ourselves are set off by what is seen - it's revealed, not caused, by it. What you can't stand is what the person stirred in yourself.
We don't grow in nobility; we grow in our ability to isolate ourselves so we don't suffer. When we react to another's pain we just reinforce it. No one wants to be angry or cruel - but when we are we blame someone else. We can't heal ourselves or change our natures by ourselves. Pain is never aware of itself. Have you ever been cruel and made yourself sick from it?
Begin to think in terms of "the one of us." You have given me something to work with. How I feel is a part of the moment, not meant to be pushed away. Let the light of awareness perfects the moment.
