But of course that is hard to do, or we would all be saints. It is much easier to love people we find beautiful, charming or deserving in our eyes. But in doing this we are a facet of the Tao, looking at another facet of itself.<br />I am not familiar with that course. I think I developed the idea from reading ‘The Way to Love’ by Anthony De Mello. I will be writing about him soon.Alexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08705188612008810774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6866069263500551544.post-50046409081561090492009-04-24T20:02:00.000-07:002009-04-24T20:02:00.000-07:00Your article reminded me of a theme from <I>A Course in Miracles</I> (ACIM), which is that no one is special. We are all equally beloved by the Divine. None of us is more lovable than any other, and the only we reason we *think* someone is special is because of the projections of our own ego. I think what you wrote is very much in alignment with that ACIM theme!DrDebhttp://www.examiner.com/x-7312-Miami-Interfaith-Spirituality-Examinernoreply@blogger.com
