61. INNER TRUTH Through openness and gentleness the correct solution is reached. "Woe to the flesh that depends on the soul; woe to the soul that depends on the flesh." Arriving at the correct solution to a difficult situation requires a receptivity to inner truth. Unless we are willing to put aside the strong emotions of our egos and devote ourselves to discovering what is right, there can be no hope of progress at this time. Help only comes when we invite it with a sincere and innocent attitude. The I Ching teaches a simple but effective method of influencing difficult people and arduous situations. It advises us first to lay aside our prejudices—our feelings of being wounded, angry, or in the right—and second to seek to understand the positions of others and the lesson that the Sage is teaching us with the situation. Even when another is truly out of line, it is only by accepting this and remaining balanced that you make it possible for positive change to occur. Gentleness and understanding create in others an unconscious willingness to be led. The superior person therefore avoids the use of anger and force in trying times, knowing that they only prolong conflict. It is far wiser to accept that each experience we have is necessary for us to learn something about ourselves and about the higher laws of life. The greatest openings come when we meet difficulty with acceptance, gentleness, and a desire to understand the lesson underneath. #divineunion #spirit #soul #Christos #ChristConsciousness #Avatar #GnosheryLibertas #GnosticRevolution Imagery: Art by Joan Larimore, 2017 Visionary Iching
