I have been reading books by Thom Hartman lately as some of you know. In"The Prophets Way" he is having a conversation with Gottfried Muller. They are discussing the potential for change in the world from the smallest acts. He uses the example of Hitlers rise to power and the fact that in 7 short years he rose from obscurity and conqured nearly all of Europe. Using the example he said,"look at all that power and accomplishment regardless of your opinion of right or wrong," then he says "Where is the man who would have that kind of power for "good?" "We must now create a mighty army of conquering Angels, people committed to peace and good".... How you ask? ..."Begin with the smallest act of compassion and do it for the least of the least, and DO IT in secret." The butterfly effect, Fractal geometry. One person can change the world, Ican change the world! You can change the world. Tiny acts of mercy, small changes in our lives, gentle transformation in our own way of thinking and living, all will affect the world system in ways that are impossible to predict but will have long and lasting impacts. He talks about creating a grid work of tiny points of light over the earth. It is going to take millions of us creating these tiny points of light to tip the balance but once the gridwork has been begun fractal geometry will take over. The gridwork foundation is in place. In another chapter he tells of ways to protect ourselves, creating safeplaces to live with just tiny changes. He uses the guest house as an example. First it was built with much attention placed on design and furnishings in respect to the earths energy fields. Natural fibers, wiring insulated with sheilding that protects from the electrical radiation leaking into the house, and I thought this was amazing, a thin layer of silk fabric under each mattress to protect people sleeping there from and insulate from the currents of the earth! Lots of good stuff in this book! Food for thought.
We can have Holy places in our homes, and on our properties, which we visit daily, even if just to nod a quick thanks. We can build alters in our hearts, on the memories of those we love and on our own experiences of the divine. These are the beginnings of the "small works" which stir the winds which will eventually create the hurricane of change in the world.
What can you do today to create a tiny point of light and silently become one of these Angels?
