Right action has both a negative and a positive dimension—as, indeed, does all of life. In its Buddhistic dimension, it’s what we refrain from doing. In its mystic-Christian dimension, it’s what is done through us. These are not contradictory positions. They’re tango partners.
My sense of the pandemic is that it’s hastening a shift in the collective consciousness. As those who have emerged from addiction have realized, the good news is first of all bad news.
There is a release from every problem. Not a solution, a release. And how is this release facilitated? Through the realization that there are no problems, just negative thoughts about things that happen.
Death is a release, birth a calamity and “I am the body” a fundamentally wrong idea.
