Essence of the Work: Service of Being

I want to share this quote because it so well encapsulates the essence of the work. It’s from Sept 17, 2003.

Within each self there is the Christ or the Christed consciousness that is the very essence of self. That self of Christhood is pure and is uncolored by that energy or entity which wears the cape or coat or cloak of Christhood. Each entity, in coming into incarnation, is as that being which is the Christ, yet which may be in any stage of development within the heart of the incarnational being. Consequently, the hope of one who is seeking to serve in the ministry of being is seeking to open the self up from the level of the personality shell, with all of its limitations, its desires, and its needs, so that, more and more, the self may descend from the surface of self, which is those honestly felt things which bear little of truth, to that inner level of self that opens and opens again and opens again, as the self is able to become honest with the self, to gaze within especially those shadow portions of the self, so that, as those shadows are found, they are welcomed, accepted, loved and used to move ever deeper into a state of unconditional love of the self as it is perceived by the self to be imperfect.

That phrase “those honestly felt things which bear little of truth” sums up the shallow self that we all get so excited about. Becoming honest with the self takes us deeper. Love-acceptance encompasses both the light and the shadow, eventually to completion.

Then All is well, and all manner of things shall be well.

In our Being we repose.
