Political, not Spiritual Leaders

Change your mind, change the world.

A spiritual leader would be one who leads you to awaken from the world of separation not reaffirm your belief in it, don’t you think? Some political leaders are called spiritual leaders because they use religious philosophy to further their cause – Gandhi, Martin Luther King, the Pope, the Dalai Lama, for example. They were or are each concerned with justice in this world, not with awakening.

Salvation is God's justice. It restores to your awareness the wholeness of the fragments you perceive as broken off and separate. (M-19.4)

Seeing others as yourself is not a philosophy, but a true experience. It is what is just, because it is the Truth. It is your mind that needs to change, not the world. Those who try to change the world instead of their own minds have forgotten the source of the world they see is in their own minds.

Right. A spiritual leader is not a progressive Utopian.

She is more like Sally Field in the movie, Sibyl, embracing her dissociated parts. She is an exemplar of how to make this journey.
