Compassion Contagion

by


a message from The Council of Light channeled by Rebecca Couch

Do not shut down because of fear; this is most important! When, by the cause of your little minds, you shut down your extraordinary reception of your expansive being, it is like electricity running directly from source getting cut off just before its destination because the switch is turned off. Remember, you are in charge of your connectivity and it is critical that you keep the lines open. This sounds simplistic, but it is so important to ensure that this fundamental flow is not restricted. There is food; put it in your mouth. There is air; breathe. There is life force energy; allow it. There is no reason that ever justifies disallowing it. So by your free will, why would you ever pinch it off simply because your mind says it is not sure about it? Do you realize this is a primary cause for illness and depression? When you cower because of worry or fear, you are constraining the very life force that is the antidote to your concern. Silly you. Be very aware at this time.

As you learn of challenges in the outer world that others face, send love. Imagine that in that situation, you would remain in a state of receptivity and peace. Be there for your brothers and sisters in this way and it will support that outcome for them as well as solidify it in your realm. No matter what, the response is receptivity, love and peace. Compassion in a nutshell, for it comprises all three and is the solution in all cases. Get to know compassion. Understand compassion. Become compassion. Be compassion in action. Seek compassionate outcomes. Hold compassion in your heart and it will become your world. If you do nothing else while watching the news or preparing dinner or accomplishing daily chores, ensure it is imbued with the magic elixir of compassion. What does one of your living spiritual masters always preach? Compassion. Know it. Embrace it. Be it. Share it. Act it. It is the most beautiful word and essence, don’t you think? Living from this place will always ensure that you are always a connected, flowing, open, acting being of divine presence. That’s the goal, right?

That is what the story of the final Earthly days of Christ is all about. No matter what, hold the light. No matter what, be compassionate for the experience, perspective, and origin of thought of others. No matter what, know that all will be well. No matter what, light triumphs. No matter what, it is you who has the opportunity to walk the way of the small, dark human experience with compassion in order to resurrect it all by the power of the light. It is you who walks the sacred path in the Promised Land. It is your everyday life! Yeah, those crosses get heavy, so put them down. Yeah, the persecution is wicked, so stop it. Yeah, the doubts are debilitating, so don’t. Enough trials have been experienced for each to choose the opposite, all fueled by compassion. Start with self and move out from there and you will begin meeting your old self until one day you will meet nothing but what is truly you. Be the compassion contagion that changes the world!

There is no greater message for this Aries full moon of Passover and Easter. If you beacon compassion from your heart, it becomes a possibility for everyone. Don’t stop until the outcome is your fondest desire that you can look into the eyes of your brothers and sisters and know love. From this the seeds of an extraordinary future are born with possibilities not before achieved.

What greater outcome is this?

Compassionately yours,

The Council of Light that is Within
