Always the student and the teacher

Always the student and the teacher


I have two statements I very much believe in –
1) When a student is ready, the teacher will come
2) Always the student and the teacher


At this time, many in the spiritual teaching community have taken the title as Master. What is the master? A master always is looking out at followers, rather than being directed to another level with followers. A master, speaking from an educational perspective has raised himself or herself a step above a four-year degree, whether they choose to expand, or find life more comfortable as having learned to reflect is a choice, which is made, with room for growth always before them rather than behind. One who takes the title as master, has chosen to stand motionless and in reflection. They have chosen their summit, rather than climbing further. 


Many spiritual masters have been identified through history including Jesus, who did not take the title of master as their own. They were given the title of master by followers, yet did not accept the title of master rather teacher or student. They constantly moved forward largely unaware of the number of followers who would be seen through looking  at life as where they had been instead of where they were guided to go. A person, who takes the title of master as his or her own, has chosen a comfort of standing still in reflection. 


A true spiritual master does not exist on this Earth, nor could they in the name they have taken. In doing so, they are stating of being in a space of no longer being the student. Teaching what is known to the point of knowledge received, or they choose to teach – rather than learning or choosing to advance. They are content without gaining or offering further knowledge or experience in doing so. In an awakening world, teaching already having been expressed to masses is now new knowledge again. Many taking the title of master have chosen to wait on their summit until point returns where the walk is needed to go further in feeding the experience to followers. In any case, they are being allowed and accepted to choose the walk for others and choosing the level of expansion for reasons of their own. 


When you choose to walk forward without allowing your own path to be influenced from looking behind you, remaining the teacher and student does not perceive limits on others. When you do not take the title of master, you are not allowing a perception of control of others. Each is on a personal walk, which cannot be done with a doctrine of control of thought or perception by another. Freedom of the soul is not bound by a master of this world. Who do you choose to be? Master or student/teacher unlimited. You can walk a thousand miles outside of yourself, only to walk back in for the answers. Who is your master or is there a need? Why?

Safety should be considered first when granting parole

-
Today the city of Kansas City, KS is mourning the loss of detective Brad Lancaster, Hearing a call for assistance he was one of the first on the scene regarding a possible car jacking and in responding was shot and killed by a man who had received early parole, serving less than a year of a sentence and released. To hear this made me sick inside, another criminal paroled only to commit murder shortly after wards. A friend of mine in 2004 was left butchered in her flower garden by a man who she had put in prison for domestic violence who had been paroled on good behavior and was seen as not being a threat to society. Both paroled by the State of Kansas early. If records were looked at, these are probably not isolated incidents. Robin left children and grandchildren in this world, Detective Lancaster left a family, and two small children as well. Anyone who has known somebody who has been murdered does not forget. If anything is to come of these tragedies I would hope and pray t

Spiritual Windows – My perception

-
Spiritual Windows – My perception   I have been writing for seven years on spirituality through my website http://www.myspiritualwindows.info and in blog form, without addressing my own interpretation of Spiritual Windows. Yet, I find more individuals then ever before searching for the answer to what a spiritual window might be. Within this article, for the first time publicly I will answer that question from my own interpretation I received many years ago. Mortality chooses to find acceptance with life/death and at times reincarnation for explanation in searching beyond the known to the unknown "How do you get there?" Our world is shifting in a thirst beyond not only the written but also the evidence of the unknown. Ms.Walters segment was somewhat limited to proving or disproving the major faiths of this world such as Christianity, Muslim, and Mormon and included a very small inclusion of Spirituality and Atheists. Interesting perspectives from all interviewed, yet leavin

The Parable of the Fork - Author unknown

-
I first read this about 20 years ago in a email and it came back into my head today. Once read you will never totally forget as a parable is meant to be.   The Parable of the Fork There was a woman who had been diagnosed with a deadly illness and had been given 3 months to live. Her doctor told her to start making preparations to die so she contacted her pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes. She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would like read, and what she wanted to be wearing. The woman also told her pastor that she wanted to be buried with her favorite bible.  Everything was in order and the pastor was preparing to leave when the woman suddenly remembered something very important to her. There's one more thing. She said excitedly. What's that? came the pastor's reply. This is very important. The woman continued. I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand.
