Practice Love

“The path of love and the path of insight lead into the same garden.”~ Stephen Mitchell

Organized religions sometimes assert that there’s ONE path to enlightenment, peace, and “everlasting life”. But there’s a golden thread of love and truth that runs through all spiritual practices. We’re all on a path to the same garden.

Our paths may include a wide variety of practices, like meditation, contemplation, devotion, public worship, and acts of service. No matter what route we take, I believe we all want to experience love, joy, peace, and a sense that our life matters in some way.

Ego often judges different choices as incorrect ones. There are no accidents, though, and a decision that looks entirely wrong from our perspective is usually EXACTLY what needed to happen in the grand scheme of things. Our job isn’t to fix or change anyone (who says our answer is right, anyway?!?); our job is to love.

Heaping layer after layer of judgment onto what we see and experience breeds barriers and defensiveness; sending love to ourselves, each other, the planet and all its inhabitants creates connection. We don’t have to worry about what is right or wrong or pretend to know what’s best for anyone. We just need to practice choosing love.
