Patience is not learned when everything is going well, but rather when things do not go our way. Patience is learned when our expectations collide with the reality of the situation. Patience implies willingness to be alive, rather than trying to seek harmony.
In life the only thing that causes us separation is our ego, because we place ourselves before others and other things. Divest yourself from self-importance and desire for success. You can intuitively sense the right direction to go, feeling the divine energy and life’s vital flow.
Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself? Never seeking fulfillment, you are never unfulfilled. Not seeking, not expecting, be present and you will be able to welcome all things.
The ancients taught being humble was one of the highest virtues. Being humble is not about holding yourself back. Instead acting positively by doing things with others cooperatively and harmoniously. Respect and treat everybody equally, this is true equality.
Quote: Compassion is both a force in the universe as well as a human experience.
