[me] This is the ultimate in self-lessness. A person that goes around participating in life/the one without being AWARE that they are the reflection of spirit to me indicates someone who is a truly humble and pure hearted individual. One doesn't need to be 'recognized' and is content to be an instrument of God in whatever they do without thought of reward or acknowledgement and is just happy to serve for the sake of serving. Such an attitude without need for self gratification is entirely rare in this world. To me this means being a reflection of spirit (a channel for spirit to work through) without needing to 'look in the mirror' of other people's eyes/actions such as acknowledgement and praise and still BE the total reflection of Spirit and unaware of it. Now THAT is a truly beautiful soul. Like Christ said....in effect....be like the lilies in the field...they toil not neither do they weep...they just ARE a reflection of spirit and therefore beautiful without being affected by their beauty....gee what a concept, huh? When I see someone like this (again RARE) I am totally in awe and am reminded of the point of caring for others out of one's heart and not out of one's need to be on the stage. Do it for God ....see the divine in everyone and do it as if that person were God incognito <grin>. Love...me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
