The human journey moves through a spectrum of experiences and understandings that vary from intricate complexity that is hard to make sense of, to having epiphanies of simple it could be. Our minds do tend to overcomplicate things, so sometimes it is really helpful to embrace simple concepts that further our understanding.
Gary Zukav’s message for us today, breaks it down to as simple as it can be.
“The human emotional system can be broken down into roughly two elements: fear and love. Love is of the soul. Fear is of the personality.” – Gary Zukav
“Every decision that you make either moves you toward your personality, or toward your soul.” – Gary Zukav
“With each choice that you make to align yourself with the energy of your soul, you empower yourself. Love is the energy of the soul. Love is what heals the personality. There is nothing that cannot be healed by love. There is nothing but love.” – Gary Zukav
To be clear, ‘the personality’ that Gary speaks of here is not ‘bad’ or ‘wrong’ and doesn’t deserve judgement or criticism. This personality is just the very human part of who we are and its nature is to be heavily invested in the survival of this ‘flesh and bone’ vessel that we occupy.
Naturally as a means to survive, FEAR is the mother tongue of this meat suit. So don’t get involved in a war with this scared human but also, if you don’t learn how to get beyond the fear, you will remain limited to a life of survival only. The choice that you have is to ‘remember’ that this is not all that you are. You are also soul, for whom the mother tongue is LOVE.
When you start paying attention you will see how every decision you make results in your body experiencing either LOVE or FEAR.
“It is for you to decide what you will contribute to this world… Will you contribute to the love that is in the world or the fear? This is the same opportunity that presents itself each moment.” – Gary Zukav
The choice is ours: to remain trapped in the cycle of fear or to break free and embrace the love that resides within us. By aligning ourselves with the energy of our souls, we empower ourselves and heal our personalities. Love is the ultimate antidote to fear, capable of transforming our lives in profound ways.
A few questions to reflect on your relationship with love and fear:
- What is driving my choices today: love or fear?
- How can I break free from the cycle of fear and embrace love?
- What are my fears holding me back from?
- What can I do today to contribute to the love in the world?
Today’s meditation is a clear choice to contribute to the love in the world. You are invited to come and sit in our circle.
