The Bible tells us as you sow, so shall you reap. Karma tells us what comes around, goes around. What we put out in the world is what we get back, directly or indirectly. What we planted in the past is what we are harvesting now. What we plant now is what we will harvest in the future.
Here are some questions to ponder:
What are you harvesting now? What is showing up in your life right now?
What do you want to harvest in the future? What do you want to show up in your life from now on?
Are you planting the right seeds in the right soil to be able to harvest what you want to in the future instead of growing weeds?
The parable of the mustard seed illustrates that last question very well. The seeds sown in the well-prepared soil and tended appropriately grew and provided a bountiful harvest. The seeds sown in barren soil with no preparation or tending did not even germinate to be able to die on the vine.
So, are we willing to do the work to ensure that what we are sowing now is really what we want to harvest in the future? Are we willing to till the field, remove the rocks and cobbles, plant the seeds, water the field, and pull the weeds while the seeds we planted grow into a bountiful harvest?
Over the coming months, we will go into each of the six areas we looked at in the Circle of Perception post, discuss bringing in the harvest, express our gratitude, and finish the year by celebrating ourselves and our successes.
My sincerest hope is that you will continue to read this blog through the rest of the year, and if you feel the need to go deeper on any topic at any time, please feel free to contact me.
Next week, we will explore the topic of finances and examine our personal relationship with money.
Until then, namaste!
