JANU: The subject for this morning: understanding why people need each other. Yes, you can live alone in a lifetime with no associations but aspects of your being, of your consciousness, will devolve. Service to others is a key ingredient to wellness, not only physically but emotionally and mentally as well. You might call this a kind of co-dependency, but this benefits everyone and makes you stronger and more well-balanced.
Now associations in the discarnate life and the other realities are equally important for, collectively, life is imprinted with all experiences, and wisdom, creativity, love, and this resource contributes to any deficiency in any area of an existence. Not only do humans need each other, they need the rest of the larger life as well. And the larger life evolves with each experience of each individual. So, being at one with the collective, the larger life, allows you to be a partner, a player, in its flow, in its reality and the destiny of everyone.
We are not speaking here exclusively of what you would call sentient beings, but all of life whether you understand it or not. Life is your servant, as are you. Even when alone for a time in your sojourn, the life within you and around you is your partner, your comforter, your sustainer. Even the unawakened and the misguided and the confused and frustrated are part of this as well. The boredom with life that some experience comes from a life of sameness, without change or flow or creativity. Conscious connection with the larger life, the larger you, and the needing and serving of others, brings light to that boredom, making every moment seem worth living.
Service is like a channel of life moving through you, uplifting you and those you serve at the same time. So let the power of life move through your life as you reach out to help, to uplift. Your needs are not private or unknown. Allow the flow of life to move through you. Namaste.
