The Choice, Ray Balancing, Harvest

[thefool]

The circumstance that offers the opportunity to help wake up an other self will manifest always at the right time. Wanting it to happen is just putting out negative "controlling" energy and will get you "lesson" circumstances where you'll try to teach and end up learning something instead. Example: I was at a point where I thought it was right to make others aware of their suffering and teach them how to stop it. The discussion was on the topic of life troubles and I asked this acquaintance "Is there suffering in your life?" Even though she had just been talking about petty problems she had been creating, she said "No." She was thinking at a different level and in that moment, she was my zen teacher, instead of the other way around.

When you pass that point, you realize that all you have to do is, as Peregrinus has said, do more work on the inward self, the self that is already seeking awakening. And as you do this and put out more and more radiant positive energy, unawakened other selves will be attracted to it and those that are ready to awaken will start talking to you. The point is to always be ready, and that circumstance will manifest at the right time.

Thanks you my friend for your response! I think we have hit upon the age old question of how to best help, if at all? I am reminded of a story. In short- when Buddha achieved his enlightenment, he sat for 7 days without doing anything. The gods and angels became very concerned and surrounded him and begged him to talk. Buddha said- Those who already know will not be benefited from my talks. Those that don't know will not care anyways. So that's why I am silent. Then gods bowed to him and said- but what about those on the edge. They need your help. Those who are ready to bloom but one more inspiration is needed. And then Buddha started talking to people and inspiring them until his leaving the physical plane.

We are in the same boats. when people are pulled towards you and gravitate to you for information. Then what do you tell them? I feel like, I am gone through now the complete cycle. First I was very active in letting everybody know what is right and what is wrong. Then I started just being myself and working on myself. Now the circumstances and people are drawn to me and I am feeling inspired to share my being and my thoughts... I am finding that there is a delicate balance between intruding upon their path and inspiring them. That is very situational. You can inspire by your smile, by your presence, by kind words, by just being. When people come to you for advise, you can also provide direct help. All the possibilities are open to us, we are the creators...
