The Mirror

 

Psychologically we cannot mirror the self, in which we actually are.

Relationships are the mirrors, to see what one is, from morning till night, not only physically but psychologically, going from one thing to another endlessly action for reaction.

When action is based on some acting, because of some ideology, it is not real action. 

 It is conformity to a certain pattern from memory and some conclusion.  Saying one thing and doing something else, thinking one thing and doing quite the opposite.

Can there be an end to this clothed mirror in our life and an end of superficiality to see the clear image?

Giving attention and learning through clear observation, hearing exactly what the other person is saying without any distortion.

If you are sensitive and aware of what is happening between one self and fellow human, natural compassion will rise and love maintains.

We have tremendous energy, but we dissipate it with dramatic conflict, through fear, through endless chattering about nothing.

Through negation of what is not love, you come to that which is immensely true, which is love.

Love is certainly not thought. So can you put aside all that: your vanity, the sense of power and poor acting?

Love is something that cannot be invited or cultivated. It comes about naturally, easily, when the other things are not.

It's only when there is complete love and compassion that there is that excellence of intelligence which is not acted and that needs no reassurance from the mirror.

In the space between reflected images is a part of immense energy, which is compassion and intelligence.

That truth is the most sacred clarity, the deep look into the self, which recognizes this deja vu. 

The eyes and its reflection from the soul have that smiling affection, which recognizes the self in this mirror against mirror effect.

Then there is that which is eternal.
