An Awareness So Brilliant
Jochen recently brought Heavenletter, #293 An Awareness So Brilliant, to our attention on the Heavenletter Spiritual Community Forum, and what a Heavenletter it is.
The synchronicity between Heavenletters and our lives is no surprise to us by now, yet nevertheless, I was surprised. An Awareness so brilliant took my breath away, as if I had never seen it before.
This blog entry is about one sentence from that Heavenletter. Here it is:
What if there is actually nothing out there for you to look at, and it is your own reflection you see through your eyes?
The day Jochen drew our attention to this Heavenletter, Jack, the border collie, was over my place. It was the dark of night. The windows in my office go right to the floor. I’ve mentioned that Jack doesn’t bark. Suddenly, he started barking at something in the window. I thought something must be outside there. I looked, and there wasn’t anything.
Nevertheless, Jack kept barking!
It finally dawned on me that Jack was seeing his own reflection in the window. He saw a big black dog with a little white trim, barking at him! What was this dog doing there, sitting there, staring at him!
“Why, Jack,” I said. “That’s you.”
Nothing I said convinced Jack. Finally I had to pull the shutters shut so he couldn’t see himself anymore.
Jack sure acted out God’s words. He demonstrated that Heavenletter right in front of me.
So, do we do that too? Do we bark at someone or something when it’s ourselves that we’re seeing in the window? Some people have even been crabby with someone else, sure that the other person is at fault, only to discover later that the mistake was theirs. Of course, I’m glad that neither you nor I ever do this. 
What if everything is us?
