A spiritual moment in crisis
When you deal with a crisis, like a chronic illness or a disability...you maybe on a spiritual journey that is not a part of our normal life. A crisis turns a normal multi-colored vision into a black and white reality. In society the multi-colored reality is normal and defines the beauty we have grown to expect. The black and white reality basically says you have peace and spiritual depth or you have suffering. Now the black and white reality freaks people out. Instead of taking advantage of an incredible opportunity; they hold on to thoughts that makes them freak out. Learn to use a crisis and appreciate a depth society can only pray for.
I work with people who would be considered in a crisis. The usual relationship to relate to these people is pity, but I think they may be the luckiest people I know. They have an opportunity to turn the normal everyday life where we have learned to adapt to thinking into a spiritual adventure. Now just think of that for a moment. our normal thoughts and perceptions trigger more thoughts and memories. Many people have a wonderful reality to fall back on, but if you do or you don't that reality is really fabrucated by your mind. your memories may trigger nice experiences...but they are still created by your mind. A crisis that creates a black and white reality has the power to force you beyond your mind created reality and that is truely a blessing. Unfortunately when most people face that black and white reality; they grasp out for thoughts that represents the normal. If that desparateness was to relax and simply observe what happens, a deeper inner wisdom would guide them instead of there old thought patterns. Now that is definately the beginning of a new chapter in your life and we need to learn how to appreciate those crisis moments. Unfortunately we are so attached to thinking we would rather stay comfortable as we think, but we are freaking out. If thinking causes you stress...realize there is a reality beyond thinking with incredible peace. let go of your addiction to thoughts and learn to live life in the zone.
