The Benevolent Life Path

Picture for a moment the ocean, fish in the ocean. You could say that the fish, as it swims along beautifully as they do — you’ve seen them in films and so on, sometimes in person — is exerting its will to go from this place to that place. But in my understanding, the fish and the water are one unit, and the water is benevolently experiencing the grace and beauty of the fish as it displaces the water to move through the exact molecules of water that welcome that fish at that time.

That’s magnificent; I never would have thought of it that way.

That is why the examination of synchronicity and timing, as you call it — what I call synchronicity and harmony and benevolence — is most valuable, because the fish goes by its instincts. The fish might not always go from point A to point B; it might take a detour because it feels to go the other way. Perhaps it does not know why; maybe later on, it learns from its family or friends or tribe that there was a predator where it was going to go. But it still arrived at the place it needed to go to without knowing about that. Or maybe on its journey, on an out-of-the-way run from point A to point B, perhaps it discovers more of its own kind or some beautiful experience for that fish person. All the journey that is the most compatible way is felt by the fish; it is not thought or analyzed, it is felt. It does not always follow the path of least resistance; that is one way to look at it. It follows the path of the greatest benevolence, which the fish feels as this warmth and love — this exercise that has been taught to you and your readers — see the appendix. It feels this, and thence it follows that. And if at any moment it feels that warmth and love — you understand, the physical feeling of benevolence — go away, then it will either stop and back up a little bit, which fish can do, or it will widen its circle until it finds that feeling again, and then pursue it, go along that path. So it is following not just a physical path but a loving, harmonious path.

That is why the spiritual teachers the human race has had over the years, the best teachers, will always say, “Follow the most benevolent and harmonious path for you.” Says the student, “How will I know that?” And the wise teacher says, “You will know it by the way you feel.” And since the student has already been taught the warmth and love, the student thinks to herself or himself, “Follow the path that feels the most comfortable to me with that warmth, love, benevolence exercise.” That path of benevolence is truly instinct, as you call it on Earth, but what I call truly the benevolent life path. Most societies that are benevolent live in this way.
