The opportunity now for many people is to TRANSCEND service.
This means moving away from our patterns of serving other towards serving self which we have coded as ‘selfish” in spiritual tradition.
“ The Bodhisattva is a being who has taken the Bodhisattva Vow to help save all sentient beings, before going into full Nirvana or enlightenment. The Bodhisattva Vow is essential to Mahayana Buddhism, and thus also to Tibetan Buddhism and Zen Buddhism.
The essence is:
May I attai
Buddhahood for the benefit of all sentient beings.
Another example:
1. I vow to save innumerable sentient beings.
2. I vow to eliminate endless afflictions/delusions.
3. I vow to learn innumerable doctrines.
4. I vow to accomplish the unsurpassed Buddha Way."nnhttp://www.katinkahesselink.net/tibet/bodhisatva.htm
Evolution is calling forth a complete new spiritual move towards true self - sustaining individuals, people resonating with unity consciousness. Supporting others and self NOT by helping them, saving anyone or supporting but by becoming aligned to a higher vibration of truth. That includes healthy support and maybe a new version of service yet to be defined.
That looks like you know the people with whom we love and work with have the capacity to align to their souls path. They hold within them the deep power of transformation and change. We are one vibrationally therefore information and wisdom is translated through us all along the “diallel” lines of communication that make up the energetic grid of existence.
For some people this may not be what they choose, we must allow this to be the case. We can no longer lead others to water and wait for them to drink. We have no role in supporting people by listening to their stories. There is no role in helping them grow, transform or evolve.
The evolving energy of today is assisting those of us who unconsciously have taken this vow to step beyond it to include it – valuing our paths to date and now choosing to walk into new territory.
That means we cease to validate our victim, others victim patterning and all ways we stay in relationships that lack power. Passive aggressive tactics no longer hold power here. Lack of truth and the inability to be honest with self has no weight.
The path of merging spirit with matter will include truth and life bundled as one. Soul and ego strength as core traits will be developed giving us the capacity to walk beside those whom inspire us to be great. Inspire us to take risks, travel into the new, inspire us to express, communicate and educate with strength, beauty and power.
Discovering new ideas making them real, taking them to the world in our chosen platforms. Being brave as we carve new pathways of expression in our lives.
This vow coded through so many of us has been wonderful and also limits us in moving forward. It also sets up dynamics of healer/patient, coach/client, teacher/student – all affirming inequality. We have then archetypes like the rescuer, martyr, victim, wounded child, hero and pioneer which possibly ring true at some level yet are they what is true beyond us being of service?
Without realising it we can think we are moving forward in our lives. Creating the new, making in roads, achieving yet for us to experience new experiences of ourselves at work, in love, in our bodies whatever we desire then that is a complete vibrational shift needed.
For most of us we stay looping re branding our work, re branding our relationships, re branding our message, re branding our homes, re branding our bodies, re branding our thoughts. The re brand is done. If this is what we continue to repeat it is indicative of us repeating past patterns that no longer serve us.
Opening up space within self to be free of this pattern will open up the new forms of expression we are here now to develop with one another. Walking with each other offering our unique support will co create the new leadership and transformation pathways.
The updated BODHI VOW might just be:
“I vow to be the greatest version of myself and make that my number one mission in life. I vow to inspire this in others who walk their souls path beside me. I serve god by knowing god resides deeply within who I am. I serve love by becoming this in my expression. I serve the world by standing for what is true. I am the goodness, truth and beauty of life. I trust others know their path and have the strength and wisdom to follow their innate greatness. I affirm this in my communication, expression and vibration.”
