Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Conscience in the wisdom way of knowing is not a ethical
term, although an ethic certainly flows from conscience. Conscience is the
active spirit of consciousness. It is "the heart's own ability to see the
divine hologram in any situation, no matter how obscured, and to move
spontaneously and without regard for its personal well-being in alignment with
that divine wholeness." CB
With a purified eye of the heart, one can move into
emotional tension with compassion, shifting the energy through the quality of
one's own aliveness. Like St
Frances
of
Assisi, you
embrace the leper standing before you with his begging bowl, because the eye of
your heart tells you that only that embrace will restore the image of God in
the brokenness. Or like Jesus, you are willing to go to the cross rather than
meet violence with violence.
"Conscience (acting out of higher consciousness) is the
pearl of great price; it is the both supreme realization and the instrument of
visionary seeing. It is the capacity always and everywhere to see the whole of
God yearning to become manifest in all our human beings and doings, like the
full of the moon faintly present behind the crescent. With the awakening of
this eye, you no longer see Wisdom, you become Wisdom. You become a channel of
God's peace, and the greatest of all artists as you dance with the "the
love that moves the stars and the sun." CB
May the courage of compassion live pure and strong in your heart, and through the Wisdom of conscience, bring you truth and peace. Peggy
Sublime! ♥
