Thought for the Week
This picture, Viewpoint, illustrates the multiple angels we can view life from. From our physical viewpoint we are striving for happiness and love, or a return to heaven. From soul’s viewpoint our physical world is a minor event in our exploration of ourselves and the worlds around us. From an overall viewpoint we see that both aspects help us develop as a stronger, more experienced and wiser being.
Our physical viewpoint
If we look at life from our physical viewpoint we see a constant struggle to stay alive, be safe and be happy. We can see a light ahead in the distance which lights our way as we seek out the goal of love, happiness and wisdom. As long as we are here in the physical world we will always have to deal with keeping a balance between the good and bad, the ups and downs, the hard and soft, the bright and dark, and all the other dual elements of life.
Soul’s viewpoint
From Soul’s viewpoint, our physical existence and this lifetime, is of minor interest. This lifetime is just one of hundreds. From its viewpoint it can see all our past and future lives. We are on a quest to explore ourselves, discover who and what we are and our place in the whole of life. We are discovering what we have to offer the world, what service we can provide and how we can help the Souls in our worlds.
From the overall viewpoint we are alive in this moment. We are in this ocean of life swirling around us. Depending on how we look at our selves, we can be struggling or we can be comfortable in the knowledge that we are in the correct place for our development at this moment in life.
Overall viewpoint
If we can switch our viewpoint from our physical worlds, to this overall viewpoint, we can begin to connect with our true selves, Soul. We then begin to connect our physical lives with our inner lives. We begin to see the light of Soul brighten our lives. We gain wisdom and love and a better understanding of how life works.
To connect with our inner selves we need to take time to explore our inner worlds. We need to contemplate or meditate. The HU song is a proven way of making progress in exploring our spiritual side. If there is a method you that works for you, then use it. It can open a new viewpoint to your life.
