This phrase was made popular through the film Avatar! which I highly recommend if you have not seen it.

We are invited in the story, to see beyond what we physically see with our human eyes, to the deeper truth and Being that lies within us all.

In Unity we use the phrase: The Christ in me beholds the Christ in you.

The key here, is that we are called to know the Christ energy (our Divine Self) in us first, as the Truth of our being. Jesus is the perfect example of this for us to follow. For, from this profound awareness shift, as Jesus showed us, we can then behold the Christ energy in another, as their Truth of Being, and call it forth. As we surrender all that we are not, we become all that we truly are. The divine shines through us all.

In discussing this in our first SEE class (Spiritual Education and Enrichment study) on Metaphysics recently, I invited the students to see beyond and through what Vladimir Putin is showing to the world, in the living out of his fears, to the deeper Truth of his being.

Can we see him as he is seen by God - whole, perfect, loving, wise, unimpacted by his human experiences and known in his Truth.

I believe that if enough of us can do this together, hold the Truth of his Being in our hearts and minds from the Truth of our Being, he will connect with this for himself.

We are not here to fix the problem but realise the solution. Let us see with 'real eyes' his Truth of Being. And at the same time hold the space of love, support and peace for all those who are impacted by his human actions.

Together we make a difference in the world.

Reading the Daily Word for yesterday, 26th September, two lines in particular really grabbed my attention.
First: I yield to possibility.
​
In Unity we talk a lot about letting go and letting God. Indeed it was Unity that introduced me to this practice. Yet so often, our minds do not like anything about this statement. Surely we know what is needed? It is up to us to sort things out ... This was certainly what I was taught as a child. Yet, working within Unity's prayer line, it has become so obvious to me that none of us know what is the very best outcome for ourselves, let alone anyone else!
 
This idea of yielding to possibilities really opens the door in our minds to the good that is here yet not always seen. What an exciting prospect. There is more good here for all of us than we can possibly know. The first step is to yield to this truth. For God, as universal good, is here for all of us.
 
The second: We are creating the space for "the dynamic creative energy of Spirit to inspire and surprise us". Perhaps even delight us ...
 
We do take action of course. After yielding to possibility, and letting the activity of God as good for all of us express through us, anything is possible.
 
This is the understanding that keeps me positive; for me and everyone on this planet. When we work together for the good of all, great things can happen. What wonder and joy is this.
