TEACHING.38
*Tolerance

*Tolerance: defined

*Tolerance is the ability to totally and completely
drop all judgment,
and to hold all That Is,
with *Love.

*Tolerance is, at first teaching, a frame of mind.
This way of thinking can be taught if *Love
is present and precedes teaching.

To learn *Tolerance all judgments of What Is
must be dropped.
A base line of *Love must be all that remains,
for then any expression of life can move towards you
on that *Love,
and can be met by *Tolerance.
In this way any expression of self or another
will be held without judgment
and with *Love.
This is *Tolerance.
*Feel *Tolerance,
in your mind,
in your body,
in your emotions
and in your spirit.

*Tolerance is to be expressed to all sentient life
and to all expression of that life,
as well as,
to yourself.

In *Tolerance there is space for the Divine
to be heard and felt.

*Tolerance: to hold all That Is with *Love and in the absence of all judgment.


ANNOTATIONS FOR TEACHING.38
*Tolerance

*Love must precede *Tolerance, and *Tolerance does not judge expression at all.

Personal Comments:
*Tolerance is one of the most important Sacred Principles to incorporate into our lives today. *Tolerance extended to self, another or to the global community allows for full uncensored expression. If absolutely every expression of self or another is met by *Love, then nothing needs to be altered to ensure acceptance.

What happens when you express *Tolerance to evil? Is evil then accepted?
I don’t know. When evil meets *Love we are still in the battle of the mightiest expression. One does not necessarily negate the other. I would like to believe that *Love conquers all, but I do not think this is always true. Our free will is directly tied into the existence of all energy extremes, and I am grateful for my own free will.

It is difficult not to judge, and it is difficult to be the victim or to watch another be victimized. It is not written in the Teachings of the Mother-Father that we not hurt one another. We are, of course, advised to choose *Love.

I assume that we, as individuals, must decide our part in the dynamic created with negative or evil energy. I, for one, would become involved if I felt I could have an effect on the outcome. After all, I have my own free will to act or not. If a child was in danger, I’d act. If a murder had been committed and the gun still in the hand of the murderer, I would steer clear of the scene. Perhaps I’d make a phone call to the police, but to protect those I love I would hesitate if called to become more involved, ie: identifying someone in a police line up. So many of our choices are made moment to moment and can have tremendous impact on our lives.

We have not been told by the Mother-Father that we must not judge. *Tolerance is offered as a choice. It is not being dictated.
