The Proper Focus
Copyright © Grant Lawrence (2004)

We should align or seek resonance with the highest we can conceive. But, the desire for this or that is generally focused on the selfish and leads to grasping and clinging. Proper alignment comes when we move from selfish desires to a focus on our unity of being.

We all have numerous desires, some come about and some don't. Mostly, they make us grasp and worry and tie us up in a self focus.

Yet, the proper focus of mind is that which can eventually lead us to a greater awareness of our higher being, the one life. It is in focus that our minds come to realize the Oneness of being. If we focus on our shared being, the greater life, then our "limited self" desires are not as disruptive or cause as much suffering.

So, a desire to align is a good thing but the focus is what reaps the blessings. A person that practices the proper focus will reap great benefits.
