I remember a story Adyashanti told once. He had an awakening. When he told his teacher about the awakening, she said, \u201cGood. You are a baby Buddha now.\u201d ~ha ha~<\/p>\n
Well, we are baby Messiahs, and like all babies, we need to be taught. That is how we are to see today\u2019s reading. It is part of that teaching. Our role is to listen very carefully, and then put the teaching into practice.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s message is very clear:<\/p>\n
Thinking for yourself is not the way to understanding, \u2026<\/p>\n
We are to become reliant on the inner Teacher for understanding. Instead of being caught up in the happenings of the world, we are to ask the inner Teacher, \u201cHow is this helpful to me?\u201d Or we could ask, \u201cHow shall I see this?\u201d \u201cWhat would you have me learn from this?\u201d \u201cHow shall I understand this?\u201d \u201cWhat am I not seeing that I need to see?\u201d Etcetera.<\/p>\n
We are to go to the inner Teacher about everything that confuses us, upsets us, frightens us, or appears to cause guilt or a sense of unworthiness in us. Like a baby who knows nothing at all, let the inner Teacher teach right understanding of everything you experience.<\/p>\n
Pay attention to the tips in today\u2019s reading. There are only a few, but they are each very important. Consider today\u2019s reading to be the first day of kindergarten for baby Messiahs. Imagine another young child sitting in your class with you, a little boy named Jesus. Notice how interested he is in the teaching. Notice how the teaching thrills him, and he eagerly takes in every word. Give yourself to the teaching just like he does. He\u2019s a good role model.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
