While A Course in Miracles and Shambhala warriorship may be considered philosophy, they are most successful when consciously chosen and practiced as a way of life. Consider and examine the daily, moment to moment ruminations of the mind. The ego spends an inordinate amount of time practicing judgment of others. It defends itself constantly from any perceived threat. The ego has no framework other than its own survival.
Vision is our conscious choice.
It is a commitment to a cause. The cause needs refreshing and constant attention. A vision of grace is the always celebrating commitment to basic goodness that we all are. It does not necessarily mean that we will be successful all the time or even most of the time. The vision merely extols our personal decision to project dignity regardless of the drama of our lives.
