"It's Getting Better" - this Sunday - explores the subtle (or not so subtle) energies of our attitudes and provides an inspired vision for a future we can actively work to create.
"Impressions" - on Dec. 10th - a heart felt exploration of our power to choose what stories we live through as our lives.
Thanks for being part of this conversation
The Power of Friendship
It is good to have a sangha of friends. It's even better to do important work with a sangha of friends. Sangha, if you don't know the word, means a community of spiritual companions who have a common purpose.
Compassion begins as an openness, a giving, a non-judging, a no demand trusting, an offer of friendship.
...Fair and honest trade will bring societies together. If the people in a society are able to restore personal responsibility, compassion, and service to others, before competitive trade collapses the society, they will evolve into a contemplative community of friends. Values will shift from acquiring material wealth to exploring consciousness. Spiritual disciplines become common practices. The sangha is born.
Two groups in conflict will consume (my guess) a hundred times the amount of resources than they would consume if the two groups were friends.
You want to know how to conserve natural resources? Make friends, because friends share.
Future generations will need to direct their greatest efforts toward tolerantly coming together. The world needs less superpowers, and more friendly tribes.
Compassion starts with a feeling of friendliness toward your self (self-acceptance) and then it grows into a feeling of friendliness toward others. You don't have to find someone who is suffering to be compassionate.
