WE, THE WHOLE

Miracles and Grace reveals–through story–the abundance of ordinary/everyday miracles presenting themselves to our consciousness every single day.
Raising consciousness expands the mind to perceive more of a truth that we are not an insignificant dot on the globe, but are constantly reflecting and affecting each other.
Long before modern physics came up with the hologram as an essential model of the Universe, an ancient Indian teaching story, the Avatamsaka sutra, spoke to the unity, interconnectedness and interdependence of all creation.
“Indra’s Net” ~ In the heavenly realm, the god Indra cast a net that extends infinitely throughout space. A multifaceted crystal is attached at each of its nodes. Every single crystal reflects, and is being reflected in, all of the other crystals, endlessly. The slightest change in one crystal is reflected as change in each of the others.
This alignment of modern science with ancient philosophy allows us to imagine each of ourselves as a single crystal on that net, affected by and affecting each other in infinite ways. Simply considering the impact our every thought, feeling, word, or deed has on everyone and everything brings a profound awakening. . .and a sense of responsibility for not only ourselves, but the whole organism we call our world, of which we are an integral part.
There have been civilizations who understood our interconnectedness, and lived in ways that supported it. The ancient/tribal way was to band together in Community. All was organized around the principle of WE (not me vs.you).
Every thought, word and deed accompanied by heart-feeling strengthens our conversation with the entire Universe. Together WE have the power–with just one action–to manifest a change for the whole of our planet Earth. WE are essentially that crystal.
Today, I am projecting a visualization and an intention for a world where we live in peaceful balance and harmony, sharing our best with our neighbor and demonstrating caring for the quality of life of future generations.
What we intend, we create. WE are All One; WE are the WHOLE.
