Hi Open,

Thanks for getting back to me. I totally resonate with what you said, but I'm afraid I can't relate to this in my situation at the moment.

You said:

"Where one is in an environment where others can't or won't hear that truth, to keep speaking it is to 'cast your pearls before swine'. What this does is diminish the power of the energy that you hold - including in their eyes."

I have explored deeply over the last many years when to speak my truth and when to hold silence, because simply, I'm not here to convert anybody.

I'll give you a recent example that happened a few weeks ago here.

I conducted a few group sessions for the yoga students. They deeply resonated with what I had to say and the meditation approaches I used. This led to them not fully following the Ashram approaches and becoming freer. It created some dissonance within the established system here. I'm partly at fault because I had some judgment towards the schedule, rules, and rigid practices, which got reflected outwardly.

Shortly after, there was a staff meeting where there were tacit projections. I was guided to simply hold silence there and not utter a word, but instead remain in the torus. In the middle of this, another staff member asked a question to us: "What are your roles here?" At that moment, the rules and schedule board that was hanging on the wall fell to the floor with a loud thud. It was a poignant moment. I was receiving the reflection I needed without "speaking the truth."

There was some personal karma behind this - possibly being outcast for singular views in Sirius. After processing that, channels have opened where I could express even more of myself without creating dissonance. I have come to accept and cherish, and see the truth in, others' expressions. Now I can also gain from them.

At the same time, I won't just shut up because my expression goes against the grain.

I just came back from another group session which was transformational. I'm not sure what's going to happen after this because, in the middle of the session, a participant asked me about following inner guidance when other practices mentioned here require following an external path. I think I handled the situation well.

I will hold the inquiry: what is the sacred cow? Possibly there is one.

Just before the session, another teacher was addressing "Guru" several times. This phase is helping me meet the old identity and release it step by step.

What does a dead frog mean? I just found one, seems poignant.

Holy cow! I just found this book in the library. Why play jokes universe? 😅

Vimal 🙏
