“To stand up for justice and peace, then, you must first find peace within yourself. You must then demonstrate peace to others, which means you can’t make a stand for peace or ‘be peace’ while you’re warring with your neighbor, hating your coworker, or judging your boss.
If everybody (and I mean every body) chose peace, and if we came together at the exact same time, imagine the type of positive change we could create in our collective future. There would be no conflict. What’s equally powerful is that when we are the living embodiment of peace, we show up as unpredictable to others and then they pay attention.
We are biologically wired to mimic each other’s behavior. Modeling peace, justice, love, kindness, care, understanding, and compassion allows others to open their hearts and move from fearful, aggressive states of survival to feeling wholeness and connectedness. Think of what would happen if we all understood how interconnected we were to one another and to the (invisible quantum) field, rather than feeling separated and isolated.
We might actually begin to take responsibility for our thoughts and emotions because we would finally understand how our state of being affects all life. This is how we begin to change the world — by first changing ourselves.
I believe we are on the verge of a great evolutionary jump. Another way to say it is that we are going through an initiation. After all, isn’t an initiation a rite of passage from one level of consciousness to another, and isn’t it designed to challenge the fabric of who we are so we can grow to a greater potential?
Maybe when we see, remember, and awaken to who we truly are, human beings can move as a collective consciousness from a state of surviving into a state of thriving. It’s then that we can emerge into our true nature and fully access our innate capacity as human beings — which is to give, to love, to serve, and to take care of one another and the Earth.”
