Amused
There were three monks walking
through the desert on their way to the city. The walk was a routine
walk. As far as the eye could see, there was sand and more sand.
After a bit of time, one monk spoke
up, "Did you see that crystal rising up out of the sand?
Nature creates such beautiful, light
filled crystal rocks. I feel full of love."
The second monk spoke in an angry, disgruntled
voice, "Are you nuts??? I only saw that dead, human hand rising out
of the sand.
So horrible to have to witness
rotting flesh. Why don't people create better barrows?"
The third monk spoke in a fearful
voice, "You both are seeing things. Didn't you see that witch’s
Divination crystal rising out of the sand?
Evil is among us! We must be prepared to stand up against them."
The three monks continued their walk
through the desert, arguing about what they saw and the meaning of it.
Soon they found themselves entering
the city. Upon entering, they noticed a young child sitting on the side
of the road watching people walk by.
The three monks walked up to the
young child and asked where they could find a Lagman? (Law speaker)
The child pointed in the direction
of a heavily used building, called the Court of Pleas. (Court to hear civil
cases between common people.)
The monks were extremely upset with
each other. They needed someone to help them figure out what they had
witnessed.
The three stories were explained to
the Ting. (The counsel)
Monk one saw a beautiful
crystal. He felt love.
Monk two saw a rotting hand.
He felt anger.
Monk three saw a witch's Divination
crystal and evil. He felt fear.
What did the three monks see?
The Ting could not figure out the
conundrum.
There happened to be an old,
wise, quiet monk in the city that day. He was quite curious to why there
was a gathering for these three monks.
The quiet monk stood up and with a
loud clearing of his throat, he asked if you could be of service.
As the room quieted down, the wise
monk made his way to the center of the room.
"So let me get this
straight. The first monk saw a beautiful crystal rising from the
sand. He felt love.
The second monk saw a rotting human
hand rising out of the sand. He felt anger.
And the third monk saw a witch's
Divination crystal rising out of the sand. He felt fear."
He turned and faced the three
monks. "Do you suppose you all saw the same thing?"
The three monks looked amused.
"How can that be?", said the second monk.
The wise monk continued.
"All people have perceptions every day. All people will have a
slightly different perception then the next person. This is due to what
is in their heart.
The wise monk walked to face the
first monk. ""You, venerable sir perceived a beautiful crystal
and upon seeing it, you felt love. This means your perceptions come from
love within your heart."
The wise monk walked to face the
second monk. "You, venerable sir perceived a rotting human hand and
upon seeing it, you felt anger. This means your perception is based on
fear within your heart. All fear is illusion."
The wise monk walked to face the
third monk. "You, venerable sir perceived a witch's Divination
crystal and evil. And upon seeing this, you felt fear. This means
your perception is based on fear within your heart. All fear is an
illusion."
Moral of the story.
All people have different
perceptions from others. We all may have slightly different perception
due to our upbringing, culture, beliefs, thoughts, whether we have healed our
Emotional bodies from hurts we have received, and the people surrounding us.
If our Emotional bodies have not been
worked on, healed and cleared out (released emotions), our emotional hurts in
life will create a skewed perception of our experience. We will be in
illusion.
Monk one had done his Inner work to
heal what he needed to heal. He was in the present moment, viewing a
beautiful crystal rock. He enjoyed what nature created for him to
see. He felt love.
Monk two had some fear in him.
Fear, whether being his own (Emotional body not healed) or someone else's fear
that he picked up, will create a skewed perception. Thus, he sees what
really is not there. He projects his fear upon his
experiences and people.
Monk three had some fear in him as
well. Fear, whether being his own (Emotional body not healed) or someone
else's fear that he picked up, will create a skewed perception. Thus, he
sees what really is not there. He projects his fear upon
his experiences and people.
Negative energy=negative mind.
Positive energy=positive mind.
All people see their own
truths. No one is wrong. What someone sees is
exactly what they perceive. An unhealed Emotional body (located as a part
of the Aura) will create skewness in one's perceptions.
- Reiki energy helps to break up stuck emotional energy
in the Aura. Thus, the stuck emotions are helped to bubble up to you
to be released. When we work on ourselves, whether we use Reiki, or
any other natural way, we bring more light into our Auras. We bring
in harmony to our whole being. Thus, we see truths
in a non-illusion way.
- All fear is illusion. All negative energy
(emotions) is based on fear.
- All positive emotions are based on love. Love is
harmonious. Fear is not harmonious.
- Discord/unharmonious energy (emotions) creates
blockages in our energy systems. We as human beings are meant to be
in a harmonious state. If not, we create dis-ease in our energy
systems and eventually this will create physical problems in our physical
bodies and minds.
It is good to have different
perceptions from everyone in the world. We can learn a lot from each
other.
We need to stay open-minded to what others’
beliefs and what they have to say. At times, we may find an answer we've
been looking for from listening to other people and their perceptions, whether
being from ancient times or modern times.
Second Moral of the story.
Get an eye check-up from your Eye
doctor if you're not quite seeing clearly! (A little humor. ;) )

a better person. I am sharing them with you because used as a
tool, they are helpful in Shadow working on ourselves. (Shadow
working is healing our inner shadows that are unconscious or
subconscious. Inner shadows are our belief systems, our thoughts,
our behaviors, our life experiences.)

beneficial!
