"Hate AIDS, Love Life." Jeffrey the Movie
or
"Love Everyone/Thing, Always Tell The Truth." Maharaji via Ram Via Me
Hate AIDS. Easy to do. Unnecessary suffering, agonies, cruelty and greed manifested in the name of AIDS. THAT is easy to hate. But you can't hate something away.
As The Beatles told us, ALL you need is love. On George's anniversary of his passing yesterday, or droipping the meat puppet, as I like to say, it gives one the chance to reflect and assess from where we have come and where the hell we are going. George "got" Krishna or Christ consciousness. Love is the only answer.
It IS exhausting loving the unloveable. It challenges our egos, our minds. Good. Let it tussle with your modes of entrapement.
Here is my exercize for you. You won't like it. But give it a shot.
Really challenge your assumptions and perceptions.
LOVE AIDS for its fierce grace in growing compassion and empathy and propelling humankind forward, in reminding us that that which affects the least of us affects all of us, for burning away the borders of class, economics and race, and for the millions of angel souls who signed up to help us just-slightly-denser-than-cement beings remember the One.
Would I prefer not to have AIDS?
Yes.
Would I be who I am, or even alive, without AIDS?
Most probably not.
It helps me to forget about Me and remember Us.
Grateful for, to quote 'Falsettos',
"the chink in the amour
The shit in the karma
The blues."
Grateful for the U in Us.
Namaste.
