Compassion

Many teachers have spoken eloquently about compassion as the deep awareness of the suffering of another, coupled with the desire to relieve that suffering. This is certainly true, and proves the magnanimous qualities that the human being embodies. Trust, hope, love and faith.

However, when we become a little detached from our compassion, and start viewing it as our sincere intent to display “a caring for”, rather than “a feeling sorry for” someone, it takes on a different meaning altogether. All too often we forget that through the law of Cause and Effect, that person has created his /her own state of being, and set of circumstances.

That set of circumstances is an enactment of the Soul Purpose. It is really quite simple. We agreed to face a set of circumstances, while incarnated onto this planet, for this lifetime. And it is up to us to negotiate this path, in order to learn the lessons, or advance our Spiritual Beingness.

In Afrikaans, we have a wonderful saying, in terms of assisting others, when they face certain circumstances. “Van die wal af tot in die sloot”. Simply translated, in means pushing someone further into the ditch.

You see, helping others, means guiding and teaching others. It is still their free will, and teaching how to plant that which you ultimately reap, should be our true expression of compassion. Feeling sorry for someone, and aiding them by sympathizing and patting on the back saying “you poor thing”, actually achieves nothing. It simply re-enforces the feeling of despair, and the morass of depression has just become a little deeper.

Truth be told, we do not know how people really feel, when they face emotional turmoil. We have not been there, have not walked one inch in their shoes. And as the human being enacts only their shop fronts, while the back of house is hidden away for no-one else to see, we can only act on what is displayed in the picture window.

So, are we really helping by displaying compassion, and empathy? I think not, as empathy and compassion implies that we truly know how others think. That we have been there. And we may have been, but the set of circumstances would have been vastly different. So, in truth, although the intent is good, we are lying through our noses.

Ok, so what now, you ask?

Think about this.

In the context of the new intelligence that is seating itself on our planet, compassion is an active desire to assist others to align with the new fields of intelligence that are manifesting right now. We also need to be aware that our ability to align to this new intelligence is distorted by our social and secular enculturation.

It does not accurately reflect our intelligence, spiritual inclinations, or purpose. The planet we live on is intelligence unto itself. It is both physical and has very high frequency energetic structures just as we do. It is shifting from the 3rd dimension to the higher 4th dimension and it has been planning this before humanity was even seeded on the planet.

A necessary evil of this process is to transmute accumulated negative energy and karmic cause from one dimension before passing into a higher dimensional grid, or consciousness.

Compassion therefore is extended to both our fellow beings and the planet itself with the realization that we are part of one another’s destiny if only for a single lifetime. Planet and person is one in the master plan of God, in a collaborative process of regeneration and renewal.

We are all part of this mysterious energetic synergy that is occurring between our solar system and the universe, and as earth transforms it's accumulated densities each of us will be challenged to transform our own, or become further embedded in our fears and emotional turmoil.

In short, together with this Universe, we are facing our own re-surrection.

So, let us re-visit the teachings of Jesus, and follow his example. Compassion is assisting in the Soul-growth of others, not in the dishing out of money and miss-aligned sympathy. Let us teach one-another to fish in this very new reality, and so develop our own spiritual competence.

After all. That is what Jesus sought to teach us. If we would only but listen.

Much Love and Light
