Thoughts for Thinkers: Devotion and Light
Devotion - the opening and turning of the heart towards something with consistency and commitment. Devotion implies a longevity of the feeling. When one is devoted, it lasts a life time.
Light is the Beloved within, the light of awareness, light of knowledge, light of clarity, and light as that which removes the darkness of ignorance.
Devotion to the light is staying committed to exploring difficulties when they arise until the light of truth can be seen. Devotion to the light is to search for it in all situations, knowing it is there, celebrating when it appears. When you 'see the light" in a situation, a feeling of love often arises spontaneously.
Meeting the light in a situation is a homecoming, a true joy.
Questions to ask yourself:
What have I been devoted to?
How can I see this light in this situation?
