Experiential mirroring: creating a foundation for compassion.
Putting the rocky road into perspective.
| p310 | Now, as you begin to view life so differently, you can see the perfection in the diversity. And at the same time you begin to recognize the patterns of similarity in the life experiences of those you may once have judged, with your very own journey. You have magnetized into your arena of awareness beings whose journeys would graphically depict for you the mirrors of your own experience that best underscore the points you wished to make in the crafting of your own life script. You may have blocked yourself from recognizing these players as the consummate performers they now appear to be. For, in playing out the melodrama of their own responses before your very eyes, they have shown you what you were unwilling to recognize and acknowledge within yourself. Now, as you begin to suspend judgment and to cease perceiving yourself in an exalted position, simply by virtue of the fact that you know you have made great progress, you begin to sense the simple Isness underlying it all. |
