Session 89 - Two Negatively Polarizing Wanderers

[redchartreuse]

Not sure if I express this well... sorry !

Hiya flo! Well first off, no need to apologize. But secondarily- and not that you should or would care much about my impressions of you- however I get a sense that you are somehow veiling your power, or are toning yourself down so as not to appear overbearing... if that makes any sense. I could be totally off myself here, however you appear to have come across quite a bit of wisdom in your journey, and I believe this would earn you the right to speak with a bit more authority that, in turn, may aid you with finding more clarity.

Or not, such is your choice. But maybe experiment with it a bit, and see what happens. But in any case, it is all good and welcome. As for your interactions of me, please don't hold back anything for my sake.

as long 'equanimity' of sort was not reached, how it was a balancing process,

I feel quite sure this is correct.

as he cited "as ye measure to others it will be measured to you'

Yes, I think this is a fascinating concept to explore, though it often receives a glib treatment.

With respect to our sleeping friends, the yardstick so-to-speak is growth, evolution, or change. To be sure, we are not privy to the innermost workings of another's being. But we can see their actions, and we can hear their words. And so, if somebody is doing the same things, saying the same things, over and over again, I believe this is a fair indicator of a lack of evolution.

As for me, am I prepared to be measured by this selfsame yardstick? Yes, I believe I am. Because growth and evolution is always at the forefront of my mind, and I can attest on my own behalf (or find others to attest on my behalf) that I have grown, and continue to grow, into higher versions of myself.

And why should we expect anything different? Since this is the natural order of things... to grow and evolve. It is a basic function of life itself.

would perhaps the 'sleep' state  not to be as  evident  as it may seem ?

Do you mean for us to consider that one who appears to be sleeping, may in fact not be?
