4 Exercises to Remember and Work In Deed
1. Work - INDEED - to drop any negative reaction.
HOW? Instead of being the passive instrument of a dark state, REMEMBER to be the active, impersonal observer of it... the sacrifice of our will and its familiar suffering so that we might embody a new Will that can't act against itself.
2. Honor the teaching moment when it comes and you're given a glimpse, an insight into a new, higher understanding.
HOW? Work in that moment - IN DEED - to deepen and strengthen the glimpse. REMEMBER your first and most important task is to work in the garden of the revelation, come rain or shine.
3. REMEMBER in any trial or unwanted moment: your aim is to test the reality of any resistance you may feel to that moment.
HOW? Work - IN DEED - to at least attempt to take one step past what you are sure is the end of what you can do. The way out is through. Find out!
4. Practice conscious patience with what you see in others, and in yourself.
HOW? Work - IN DEED - to REMEMBER your first obligation: before you blame anything for your negative reaction, bring it - consciously - into awareness of yourself... that you might suffer yourself before you pain another.
