""But no one tells us exactly how to go about transforming
the defended self into the undefended self."
Betty Clare Moffatt
The last half of my life has been spent on either trying to extract what is no longer needed or trying to inject more compassion and kindness. Betty Clare Moffitt's book, SOULWORK reflects this process of transformation.
Our attention tends to become all action when we really need stillness. In Gary Zukav's book, THE SEAT OF THE SOUL, we come to understand how our authentic identity sits and waits. It is a matter of uncovering that which is already there.
We can think of the presence within, sitting and waiting to be recognized and heard, as our soul who arrived in life clad in a human body suit. It is interesting to think of the soul observing the human self trying on qualities like being behind a curtain trying on clothes. When we can embrace the sacred self in stillness and silence, life becomes not easier, but more understandable.
