All well and good Molly, but I'd rather keep the external estranged until it finds itself in a more harmonious condition within itself. I don't think many beings entangled in the external are experiencing true harmony within it. Is it Dante's Inferno or The Garden of Earthly Delights? I contribute and donate portions of my internal to the external but keep it at a safe distance, one that allows some degree of self choice in matters, resulting in positive results internally. I can let the world spin but I don't have to let it in. The external core is gravitational, magnetic, and alluring. Once one intermingles or becomes entangled within it there is slim chance to none of extricating oneself from it. This is exhibited by those who reach the high towers within the external but spiral down in flames regardless of wealth or fame. Phil Specter is our newest example but perhaps not as damaging as Madoff. The names are many but the end is the same, just ask Ghandi. Some may think it a personal responsibility to engage the external but I remain firm in my distancing from it, not to be interpreted as reclusive but simply aware that it is like a living organism that consumes souls and spirits with the most insidious form of deception. Those that are seduced eventually wonder what happened and how. Torn from the whirlwind of guile that lured them in the first place leaves them agape with dismay, as is happening right now with the global meltdown. In some ways we are forced to take hand in what occurs externally by imposed laws and societal mores, each with it's own brand of snares. It is simply the rule to conduct oneself accordingly in order to remain outside of that realm. This is not a rant of pessimism but a reality check based on acute awareness of the external world throughout history. You see I've been there many times and have accumulated soul knowledge, regardless of what others think or believe concerning the existence of such. I think you know, Molly.
