So Profound

Sit with hatred until you feel the fear beneath it
Sit with fear until you feel the compassion beneath that
Do not set your heart on particular results. Enjoy positive action for it's own sake. Rest confident that it will bear fruit.
When you see violence, greed and narrow-mindedness in the fullness of it's power, walk straight into the heart of it, remaining open to the sky and in touch with the earth.

Staying open, staying grounded, remember that you are the inheritors of thousands of generations of life
Staying open, staying grounded, be confident in the magic and power that arise when people come together in a good cause
Staying open, staying grounded, have faith that the forces of wisdom and compassion will manifest through our actions for the healing of our world

When you see the weapons of hate, disarm them with Love
When you see the fortresses of narrow-mindedness, breach them with Truth
When you find yourself in dark clouds of dread, dispel them with Courage
When the forces of power seek to isolate us from one another, reach out with Joy

In it and through it all, holding to your intention, let go into the music of Life

Dance
