This is just such an intriguing topic and goes hand in hand with Diana's post about healing the world. With so much going on right now (and one could make this same remark about many times in human history), how do we help? Are we doing enough?
Much wisdom and discernment is called upon when offering help, in my experience, so as not to infringe upon another's journey of seeking. LU raises some good points: each of us has a unique lens and journey. What one person sees as help may be an impediment to another.
Sometimes the way to get to deeper spiritual matters is through the transient, so transient matters have value. Some of us start at the surface, and then work our way deeper and deeper making connections as we go. Others may start at the "deep end."
There are so many different paths of seeking, it's hard to know with certainty how to help. That's why I keep returning, in my own journey, to love and acceptance of self/others. It's kind of that multi-function, versatile tool that can be used in any situation. Like duct tape can fix almost anything, perhaps love can too.
That's what I enjoy about this forum: there are often many perspectives presented from our different voices. And these different perspectives may open up someone else's doors. Or, perhaps some doors are not ready to be opened yet and thus, remain closed for the time being.
Re new members, when they are called to seek further, post, or ask questions, I trust they will do so as they are led to do. I dove in to this forum cuz I was so hungry for Law of One, but there is no one-size-fits-all path. Each will find (or ask for help) in their own way, in their own time.
