Today's reading is around your five extensions of being,
Which are self,
Family,
Community,
Work or business,
And Mother Nature.
Now forgoing any of these extensions will prevent you from finding your purposehood,
Leading you to a life of suffering.
Mindless living is a result of the illusion that each extension circle is independent,
Which leads to a destiny of striving to create life family balance or life work balance,
Only to end up with total dissatisfaction.
Without any of these extensions you will be like a car missing a wheel or an engine.
There will be no chance for you to make the journey out of the jungle of life towards Eden.
So many people are totally consumed with only self pursuits,
Even if towards what they think is enlightenment.
Others are consumed only with their family's work or community issues,
Such as politics,
Sports,
Religion and environmental activism.
Or they may be focused on just two or three of those extensions,
Such as themselves,
Family and work.
Still,
Without embracing all five extensions,
Their being will not be in sync and harmony with the existential purpose of life and the universe.
You may know a person who is a great man or woman in his family working community,
But cruel to some animals.
Such a person could never find peace within himself and will always fall into negative states of living.
You may also know a person who is well connected with four extensions,
But their work is making them miserable.
If you're in this situation it's impossible to fully benefit from your other extensions of being.
That poison from that one single extension will eventually spread to the others.
If any extension is toxic,
Then all will have some level of toxicity.
My friend,
Your potentiality is waiting for you in your expanded awareness of how you influence your extensions and how they influence you positively and negatively,
And then learning how to harvest that connectedness for your exponential evolution and expansion towards your purpose-wood guiding star.
The enlightened amongst us express who they are in every positive thought,
Word or action that they produce.
They see themselves in one family that includes all humanity working hard as one to make life better for all,
Including every working individual and element of nature that makes their existence possible.
They see themselves in the earth which is working constantly to feed the seeds that create plants,
Plants that work tirelessly with the pollination of bees to produce fruits,
Fruits that are connected by the farmers and many others in the supply chain to get food to our table.
They see themselves in communities that include societies of ants,
Elephants and all creatures,
And in a nature that includes the whole universe from its shining stars to its black holes.
A few mystics amongst us conduct their lives within only one circle where everything is one.
For these people there is no us or them,
We are all one symphony playing in this existence.
For them every being is interwoven with all other beings as it is impossible for anything to be independent.
Every single thing that happens influences in a small or big way the rest of existence.
A butterfly flapping its wings in Minnesota could possibly create a typhoon in Japan in what's called the butterfly effect where a tiny change in a complex system can ripple out progressively creating larger impacts.
A pebble falling into a lake has a ripple effect that extends to the lake and beyond even if the apparent effect is only the one on impact.
Each being has extensions whose obvious direct impact will eventually vibrate through all existence.
My friend when you expand your awareness to all your five extensions of being you become ready to live an exponentially evolving and expanding life.
I breathe in love for myself.
I breathe out love for my family.
I breathe in love for myself.
I breathe out love for my co-workers.
I breathe in love for myself.
I breathe out love for my communities.
I breathe in love for myself.
I breathe out love for Mother Nature.
I breathe in love.
I breathe out-ish.
