Compassion has many different meanings for folks. Of course the dictionary says it's sympathy, that's a good place to start but it's must more than this. We are learning to be compassionate with ourselves with "Higher Mind, Lower Mind." We are learning to look within to see how we have been so hard on others in order to save ourselves, meaning making ourselves look good.
So how does one begin the process of compassion? It's easy, stop trying to change everyone. The only person you need to worry about changing is yourself. When we move to changing ourselves we begin to see ourselves in everyone else and this assist us in our process to knowing thy self.
When we are condemn others we are telling ourselves we are better than them, that we have something special that they don't. We are telling ourselves and them they don't deserve God's love, and we will put our love higher even than God's love. Isn't that interesting? How many times have you done that? How many times have you cut your love off from another person claiming that God would not love a person like that? It's your test!!!! Your test to see if you can love YOURSELF, and that it is YOU that fears God's love.
No matter what your brother has done you have the same ability to do what you are now condemning him for. A person being who they are born to be is an opportunity for the whole world to learn compassion. It is when you stop condemning others that you are able to feel the deep compassion that exist for him and YOU. Within you comes alive the ability to face yourself.
Through acceptance transformation begins to happen. Compassion fills our hearts and we can see before us the illusion of what we projected into the world while understanding our own fears about it. You see anything that you are projecting on to your brother is only something that you don't want to accept of yourself. Isn't it much easier to not accept another than it is yourself?
Take a moment and think about all the things people said, did or are that you could not or would not accept. These things are only but shadows that you have hidden deep within your soul that you resist within you.
Many would disagree asking me how is it that a gay man is my projection. Well think about that for a moment, if you are a woman upset about a gay man it doesn't take long to see that you are resisting the female energy within you. All things are within balance, but if you feel you need to live in a mans world and are trying to prove to yourself you can keep up, the gay man in your life is your blessing showing you that you are neglecting a very real and important part of your being, your feminine energy. And we have to look at why is it more acceptable to have two women kissing each other than two men. You see it's what you are hiding within you.
So are you a woman that feels she has to prove that she's one of the guys and work long hard hours, neglecting the family, and making sure that you are connecting on the business world instead of at home. And stop that right now! Many of you reading this are trying to tell yourself you are balanced and that you don't do this or don't do that. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DO AND DON'T DO UNCONSCIOUSLY BUT THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU ARE LETTING YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
If you go out to a dinner party and you are feeling that people aren't paying attention to you, that you are feeling something is wrong, then all you have to do is look at your own motives and agendas by what you are feeling.
Don't ask anyone for their opinion about you because it's about you understanding you; not how other people see you but rather how you are seeing other people. You can reject this idea and nothing will be transformed. Accept this idea and you will begin to see truth. This is what people are really afraid of!
It is out of your own guilt that you had a hand in your brother being the way that he is that makes you run from the light. But understand that your brother accepted that responsibility because he loved you so much that he was willing to play whatever part was necessary for however long was necessary in order for you to be free.
