When somehow, by force of your human will,
you attempt to make everything as you feel it should be
in the outer world, there can come within your awareness, even in your physical temple, strain, stress, and
the temporary disconnect between your heart, your
mind, and the heart and mind of God. Therefore let go
of all preconceived notions of how things should be
and accept God’s divine ideations as they are—in the
infinitude of love, harmony, and mercy.
Does this mean that you should allow negative
energies or evil itself to play upon your being in an infamous way? Of course not. You must stand in defense
of the highest truth, the most cosmic ideal, from the
point of reference of the Buddhas of the Pure Land,
who have resolved all issues within themselves and
therefore stand in the infinite light, the diamond-crystal
light of perfection, the harmony of purity, and the
beauty of grace.
