from the Infinite Consciousness

“The tribulation is a ‘changing of hearts.’ The furies in the Middle East are unresolved frustrations, for decades smoldering. The one incident is a boiling point. [refers to the Sept. anti-Muslim independent movie trailer]

“How is this a sign of growth? First, one learns to say no. They are angry at being downtrodden for so long. They are not so much angry about America, as they are upset that they are in their own stewpot and do not see progress. Everyone wants dignity.

“This is a long tribulation. It lasts for many many years. It is an awakening of possibility. First they rise up to say ‘no more.’ Then they rise up again to say ‘no more.’ This is a journey.

“Every individual who is in the tirade is a potential leader—striving to destroy the old ways that have smothered their hopes and buried their dreams. Every individual who is in the tirade is a potential visionary—striving to unleash a new way to govern. These are the people willing to say no to tyrants and tyrannical ways of life. Wisdom does not come easily. It is learned through crises. Few are inborn with grace. Most discover gentleness only after a lifetime of struggle.

“The wise ones in the world are those who understand that a peaceful transition is not quickly acquired.  It literally will take not one generation, not even two, but three generations—for the new ideas to generate at the root level.

“So, for now. Bear no grudge. Be not hostile. Be open-minded. Be open-hearted. Live for value. Live to be of value, and to create value in what you do. Every person who strives, daily, to live with value is generating an energy that is flooding the world with good.

“Thoughts are energy. Attitudes are energy. Generate optimism and you are spreading an energy of positive transformation. Be aware: What you think matters. What you think shapes your life, and alters the world. What you think results in your facial expressions, your body posture, the way you move, the way you talk, your tone of voice, how you appear to others. What you think is visible on you, to everyone. There are no secrets. You can only be the best person you can be, every day. Live with an open heart, with grace, with humility, and you begin to become the person you wish to be. This is how the world changes: by every person’s state of mind, influencing the whole, like ripples in a tide.

“When there is social unrest, it’s personal. It’s not so much about ‘us’ as it’s about ‘me.’ The revolutionary uprisings are people striving to find a way to be respected. Everyone wants to be respected. Remember this: Find a way to bridge and you are someone who is creating solutions.  Look for cooperation, be cooperative, and you are kindling a new way.

“The Middle East is the world’s boiling point for all people’s unhappiness and disappointments. Do not judge them. They are you.

“Yes, there is a better way than rage. Rage is a tipping point. It is the one saying ‘no more.’ All the anger is not so much against American values as it is disappointment in their own personal lives, and anger that they are not being personally respected. The sensitivity is heightened because the individual feels disrespected, not once but for a lifetime.

“One last thought. This letter is a perspective on the Egyptians’—and others in the Middle East—disillusionment with their own lives. This does not mean that harsh actions that harm others—in words as well as deeds—should be allowed. There is no right in hurting others. While the rage is understandable, wherever it assaults anyone or causes others to rise up in hostilities, it must be curbed. Rage unleashed is like a wildfire. It must be contained. While those who are ill-tempered may fume and foment, it is not acceptable to strike out or be cruel or cause irreparable harm to anyone—and should be disavowed.

“Bottom line, rage is personal. At the same time, whenever it leaps like a wildfire to damage someone else, it must be contained.”
