We the Choir Gather and We Learn to Sing Together

[Sacred Fool]

 
Good for you!

Well, when you show up for rehearsal or a performance, do you tell people, "I'm a wanderer, so I'm just going to radiate my high vibration self and not do the work of learning the music?"  I kinda doubt it.

Anyhow, this is sort of what I'm trying to get at.  That quote in the OP is about validation from others just for showing up.  That's fine, but if you really want to do the work of making music, you must "pay your dues," no?  Ergo, a wanderer can just show up and hang out--and maybe that was a carefully chosen pre-incarnative choice, for example, sometimes you just need an easy lifetime to balance out the rougher ones--you can just show up and vibrate casually, or maybe you wanna do serious work in consciousness?  Maybe you want to go so deeply inside the music that your sense of self becomes transparent?  Maybe not.
