We must get rid of our vices: advice and the device.
When we’re faced with decisions, we consult our devices. If that doesn’t work we seek advice. “If I were you, dear, I would do ___ and ____.” No you wouldn’t. If you were me, you’d do exactly what I AM doing, because you would be me!
Your feelings, your state of consciousness, and your awareness are shaped according only to your individuation. Your symphony cannot be constructed by another. Their music is on a different plane. Their level of understanding is quite different, according to how their awareness has been shaped, formed, and used to express divine flow. So advice is a vice, says the “advisor/author.”
Jesus used expressions like “prayer closet.” Who’s in the prayer closet? Likewise, a device is not a prayer closet, but another window “out there” into the hypothetical outsourced world of confusion and chaos. Most people have to check their phones to see how they feel that day.
It’s like going to a university admissions counselor and asking, “What should I study?” The criteria for the counselor is totally different from your criteria. Maybe they’ve been advised to push potential students into the business college because it’s tied to revenue. Go into nursing, the pay scale is rising in that industry. The gullible fall for it, falling for the advice, a vice to misery.
The prayer closet is your only holy oratorio. It’s not Madame Tarot! It’s not the fortune from the cookie at the Chinese Buffet. It’s certainly not the church or God. Go into church and you’ll find “God” everywhere – stained-glass, the tabernacle, the Bible – full of it. The minister will also gladly “advise” you of “God’s plan” for you. Oy vey!
Your holy oratory is your foundational I AM – guiding itself through the silent, invisble observer.
Your vices (advice and the device) say nothing. They are noisy, gripping frictions that could be cleared in the oratory of a well-shepherded spirit.
