An epiphany for me was clearly separating action from intention. In corporeal life, I act fully within reason — taking responsibility, using tools, effort, and intelligence, as if there is no Creator.
I get sick → I go to the doctor
I need money → I work, plan, ask, risk
I feel anxious → I don’t spiritualize it away
A mosquito dies → it’s dead, full stopI don’t spiritualize problems or bypass causality. At the same time, I don’t measure my worth or meaning by outcomes, and I don’t stop moving because certainty is missing. At the level of intention (not action) I only attribute: the result, the timing, the unfolding to the Creator. I don’t attribute meaning, worth, or identity to outcomes. I don’t conclude “this defines me”. I don’t collapse when certainty is missing. I don’t stop moving because the future isn’t guaranteed
On the other hand at the level of action or “the dream” as I’d like to call it: the world is real. Desire is real. Consequences are real. Anxiety is real. Effort is real. I play by the rules. I don’t go through walls. I don’t wait for miracles. I don’t suspend judgment or reason. I take the story seriously while I am in it.
The “dream” isn’t fake → it’s the space where desire feels real and choice exists. The work is not denying the dream, but engaging it responsibly while holding the intention that results belong to the Creator.
Thank you for the lessons. Consciousness, is about awareness of our state. Often we are not aware of our oppositeness to nature, perhaps we created a life around ourselves that limits need to “bump” into others, as that is the way we prefer, because it’s uncomfortable and we don’t like the feelings that are brought up. But it’s in these interactions where we find ourselves challenged, that our level of consciousness is being raised. If we remain conscious of that process, then in those moments we feel challenged by others we may remain a little open to see what is the lesson our level of awareness is being called to. In that moment we give a little patience for both the other person and patience for ourselves. We learn to love the other as we should love ourselves. After all, we are all one.
I understand the importance of the group, and grateful for a group of people that step up to this challenge with the right intention. Let us take care of ourselves and each other when it gets uncomfortable. Let us strengthen each other in doing so, by bringing back the pieces of Adam HaRishon with conscious care at attention.
