Soul Correction: Take the peacock, for example…
In this article, I create a new context for 2012: one that makes this New Year the REAL beginning of the thousand years of peace. I start with a story… don’t get distracted: it is a teaching story…
I have a few coaches and teachers. One of them has a group call every Saturday, and I went on that call.
I wasn’t in tune with this call. I’d just come off a connection call: peaceful and in reverie. This call was noisy, people talked over each other. I felt like getting off the call.
Then the teacher asked me about a recent result I produced, so I spoke.I emphasized the more unusual things I did, and I felt the sentiments rise against me: I was making waves. I was saying things that were threatening the to world view of most on the call.
Then my teacher interrupted me and started to teach people through my example, but what she said was in direct conflict with who I am and what I believe in. Even with what I did.
I got, in that moment, that my teacher teaches people a world view that is the one I attack on my blog, the one that makes people a slave and a cautious hesitator. (is that a new expression? sounds like ‘conscientious objector,’ doesn’t it?)
Anyway, I got off the call, and I felt I needed to cut ties with my teacher, all the people there, cancel all my engagements with people who don’t share the world view I teach.
I called a friend for coaching: I knew that when you feel a strong urge, the job to do is “nothing.” Strong urges come from ego, I just could not see what and how.
He had only a few minutes, so I shared, briefly, what happened, and then I said: It feels like I should not ever talk to anyone who doesn’t share my world view… Being with “those” people feels like eating poison.
I blurted that out, and than g-d I did: it gave me a clue to what’s going on.
There is a story I heard, that peacocks eat poisonous berries and they grow beautiful colorful plumes… aren’t peacocks beautiful? And regal.
Maybe what’s going on is I touched on
