Peace that passes all understanding.
I don’t know why I clicked here but oh well- I did. Ahh 2017, the good ole’ days 🤣. Ironically, I’ve never been happier or more at peace in the midst of war.
I don't completely disagree with Figgles 2017 there, the absence of SVP after all, does have ramifications in terms of experience, but I clearly see now the subtle "bridge" I was still imagining....the failure to fully see through/realize 'absence'.....the attempt (need!) to conceptualize where only seeing through/realization will do.
I think is why I am presently so focused upon pointing away from those conceptualizations in certain posters posts.....it's still pretty fresh in the big scheme... Not so long ago....I was doing it too!... fell prey to that very same misconception.....that very same personal drive to keep one SVP foot in the game.....
Found this old post of mine on the same subject kind of interesting--speaks well to current circumstance...again, don't necessarily disagree content wise....that said, it's really obvious to me in that one too....I was clinging subtly (maybe even not so subtly!) to 'some-thing-ness.'
Figgles: Being abidingly at peace means seeing all the lousy stuff happening on earth, but also being certain that in spite of that, Love prevails. It really is the best position to be in to receive inspiration as to the best ways to immediately 'help.'
When one is mired in heartsick pain over the 'horrors' of physicality, he might indeed be launching very strong desires for something to change for the better, but if he stays stuck in that position, he's simply not 'open' to receiving the inspiration for solutions that will come the moment he steps beyond that, towards hope, towards faith, towards knowing that despite appearances, all is fundamentally well and good.
