Gentleness
You know what this for me personally is a very hard struggle but one that I really really wish to develop and see become more and more of my inner nature.To be gentle internally within ourselves is what counts the most when it comes to our work and our relationship with our Being.
However, it can't be that a person who is gentle internally is so insulting, abrasive, rough and tough with others...
Nor would a person who is gentle internally be a 'push over' either because that would not be kind to ourselves, our work or our inner Being.
So to be gentle internally is not to take as Master Samael says, people into our internal cave and lash them, scold them, hit them, yell at them, berate them etc.
It makes sense that if we were gentle internally we would not push anyone, shove anyone, jolt people with our words, embarrass people or put them continually under pressure...
How we treat people physically is a direct reflection of how we treat people internally when we don't hav the barrier of personality present.
Our own home is a very good place to work on conquering internal gentleness.
It is clear that the intolerance we have, the annoyances that we have, the impatience and the anger that we have are the biggest enemies of interior gentleness.
Cultivating interior gentleness in our concepts and considerations and our internal treatment of others is to love them, and it is to effect a major change within our interior.
We wrongly think that we can not be gentle in this violent and rough world. But if we think that, we will never conquer that which is so important for love and interior development.
So instead we need to be smarter and balanced and strong in truth and justice and trust in those powers to protect us. Because they will always prevail.
End (2595).
