If you light a flame, you don't have to work for it.
It will give off heat by virtue of it being lit.
And if we're immersed, we will do excellent work.
But if we just strive for excellence, we may not be immersed.
And we then the reward for immersion is the experience of oneness and connection to life.
And now we come back to reverence and doing no harm.
And one of the things today, when we get back to your question about someone who's not feeling connected, who's feeling numb, who's feeling isolated, what do you care about?
What can you immerse yourself in?
It doesn't have to be a big career.
It may be caring for one plan.
It may be bringing dinner to a neighbor.
Who knows what it would be?
It could be stamp collecting.
It could be working on cars.
It doesn't really like the soul wants us to throw care on the fire of aliveness.
Yes.
So like any fire, a fire doesn't care what kind of wood you put on it.
And I don't think the soul or the life of spirit cares about
What care we put on the fire of aliveness, just that we care.
Yeah, I think absolutely.
