BEST of PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, April 10th, 2013 by Shakti Gawain in THE PATH OF TRANSFORMATION

“Lasting change comes only when we get completely away from thinking that the core problem is “out there” somewhere, that our peace of mind can only be won by changing others. The kind of thinking that we must change in ourselves is the belief that it’s somebody else’s fault, it’s those other people, it’s that situation, it’s that other country, that other race, that government, those politicians, or it’s those unconscious people, who are responsible for the way things are.

We need to let go of this way of thinking not just because it’s a “nice” or “spiritually aware” thing to do, but because it is the only way we can discover and take responsibility for our own power.”
