Note<\/em>:\u00a0 Before reading today\u2019s tip, read Acts 9:1-31<\/a> from the Bible or watch all of Acts 9 from the Visual Bible movie, Acts.<\/p>\n

Most people have heard of the Apostle Paul, but many do not know that Paul, previously called Saul, was a leader in the persecution against the Christian sect. When people read the story of Saul\u2019s conversion in the Bible, they may not understand why someone like Saul would be called to become a leading teacher and apostle. If we have trouble understanding, it\u2019s because we are focused on humans instead of consciousness, and we judge some humans as worthy and some humans as not worthy.<\/p>\n

As we saw yesterday, consciousness sees only consciousness. Consciousness is not concerned about human stories and what one human has done or has not done. Consciousness is awakening, and the light is spreading within consciousness. That is all that is happening from consciousness\u2019 perspective.<\/p>\n

From the human perspective, the way the light moves may not always make sense. For example, we may not understand why some people have spontaneous awakenings and others don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

From consciousness\u2019 perspective, the spreading of light is natural within awakening consciousness. It\u2019s just like blue food coloring spreading through white cake batter as it is stirred into the batter.<\/p>\n

Some people may ask, \u201cIf awakening is random, like blue food coloring mixing with white cake batter, why should I engage in spiritual practice?\u201d<\/p>\n

Here’s the answer:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s our spiritual practice that stirs up the light. As we engage in sincere spiritual practice, the light extends through consciousness awakening consciousness. We are the batter (consciousness), the food coloring (awakening light) and the spoon (the energy that spreads the light). The spiritual practice that we do benefits all of consciousness. All awakenings come from the spiritual practice of those who are called into spiritual practice.<\/p>\n

NTI guides us to trust that the light is spreading within consciousness. Our role is to remain focused on awakening, and let everything else take care of everything else. When we adopt this attitude toward the world and other humans, we are living in trust that everything is consciousness, and consciousness is in the process of awakening to itself.<\/p>\n
