Your heart is YOUR compass to your soul. It guides YOU. Not the other way around.
There's a massive difference between choosing your fears, and choosing your love.
YOUR love. It has a unique signature to it. Maybe yours is filled with ladybugs but Juliet's has colorful cows. Maybe yours says you should sing but hers wants her to garden vegetables.
When you listen to it, it sings to your soul and builds a crescendo.
There are always going to be dissonant chords out there who fall out of harmony and fade into the void. They don't like farm life. Cows gross them out. Vegetables come with bugs and singing makes their ears ache.
You can sit and argue with them....or you can follow your heart and let them fade. It is not cruel or unloving to choose YOUR love.
It was made for you. Infused into your very bones.
The ones who are meant to harmonize with you will be energized every time you throw your pitch. They'll marvel in awe. You'll inspire them and an entire synergy of ideas will spring forward.
You can spend the entire song trying to tune everyone's strings to create something that mimics harmony.
Or you can find your heart's resonance and tune yourself to it, letting the universe conduct the rest of the music.
Which means - there are times when you must leave an octave behind to continue the song.
In other words, you have to let things be. You have to let people be. You have to let it go eventually. Maybe they'll join back in during the chorus.
But don't give up the music just because someone doesn't like the way you sing your song.

Happy ☀️ DAY, Everyone.
Today and the coming week will be very interesting.
Stay grounded.

That’s where your Power lies.

What is a “pure mind”? Is it one that doesn’t produce “bad” thoughts? Is it one that is Holy? Or Christlike, or whatever?
Yes and No. It IS pure and Holy, but that’s because it just IS. Not because it is following any set of rules.
The Pure Mind is one that does not judge.
Does not separate and divide.
Let me try to explain it this way:
When we enter meditation, we are attempting to reach a Pure Mind state. Mind without extraneous thought. Mind without judgements and labels. Mind that is calm and still and connected to Source.
THAT state is purity of mind. It has nothing to do with banishing “bad” thoughts or being hard on yourself for having “sinful” notions. We all have those. The key to this is to notice them and then LET THEM GO.
As soon as you get stuck in the cycle of judging your own thoughts, you’ve given yourself reason and excuse to judge others.
Everything starts with you.
There is a wonderful analogy in the book Awakening Spirits by Tom Brown, Jr (thank you from the bottom of my heart, David, for gifting me that book).
The analogy is this: Think of a glassy smooth pond. It is calm and still. It reflects what’s above and around it perfectly. It is also clear and easy to gaze into its depths.
When a pebble is tossed into the water, or the wind picks up, the surface becomes turbulent. It no longer reflects things purely. All becomes distorted. Chaotic.
The calm water is your Pure Mind. It is the bridge to connect you to Spirit. The turbulence is your ego thoughts and judgements.
The Pure Mind is your “other mind”. It is not the logical, thinking mind of the ego. It is the one without judgement. The one that exists in Love and resides in the state where judgement and labels just do not even exist.
Do you have a Pure Mind?
Yes. We all do.
The key is learning to access it.
Now, as you process what I’ve said, is some part of you trying to hang on to the notion of judging and following the rules to “achieve” purity? Yeah, that’s the part you want to tell to take a seat and shut up for a while. 😉
Love you,
TR ✨💕✨

This means: Do not judge.
Judgement means forming opinions and labels for things, people and ideas.
The Great Way is not difficult for those who have no preferences.
