What The Mystics Know   2) We Don't Have To Be Perfect “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion?  Come to me.  Get away with me and you’ll recover your life.  I’ll show you how to take a real rest.  Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it.  Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.  I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.  Keep company with me  and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭MSG                                The Conversation Elements From The Conversation ~ ❖ ~ Question of the Day: How does one incorporate imperfection? In a Navajo rug there is always one clear imperfection woven into the pattern. And interestingly enough, this is precisely where the Spirit moves in and out of the rug!

Wat Die Mistici Weet   2) Ons Hoef Nie Perfek Te wees Nie “Kom na My toe,  almal wat vermoeid en swaar belas is,  en Ek sal julle rus gee.  Neem my juk op julle, en leer van My,  omdat Ek sagmoedig en nederig van hart is,  en julle sal rus vind vir julle gemoed.  Want my juk is draaglik en my las is lig.” ‭‭Matteus‬ ‭11‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭AFR20‬ ‬                               Die Gesprek Elemente Uit Die Gesprek ~ ❖ ~ Question of the Day: How does one incorporate imperfection?

The Semitic mind, the Eastern mind (which, by the way, Jesus would have been much closer to) understands perfection in precisely that way. The East is much more comfortable with paradox, mystery, and non-dual thinking than the Western mind which ...

  Enneatype 1 In Person The Conversation  Elements From The Conversation  When we over-identify with the ego and are of the firm belief that our personality is the be-all and end-all, we are living small lives. By becoming aware of our personality's automatic reactions and recurring patterns, we grow into the much vaster true, or God-self. Even though Nelson Mandela probably didn't have the Enneagram in mind when he said the words below, it expresses the underlying principle of the Enneagram superbly.  Music Our love accompanies you on your journey to become you.

  Enneagram 1 In Lewende Lywe Die Gesprek  Elemente Uit Die Gesprek  Wanneer ons ooridentifiseer met die ego en vas oortuig is dat ons persoonlikheid die een en al is, leef ons klein lewens. Deur bewus te raak van ons persoonlikheid se outomatiese reaksies en herhalende patrone, groei ons in ons veel ruimer ware, of God-self in. Alhoewel Nelson Mandela waarskynlik nie die Enneagram spesifiek in gedagte gehad het toe hy die woorde hieronder gesê het nie, druk dit die onderliggende beginsel van die Enneagram baie goed uit.  Musiek  Ons liefde vergesel jou op jou reis om jy te word.
