intention is just as important as our action.
"The energetic truth behind all that we do
determines the validity of an interaction, not
simply moral reasoning. We are protected
for a time when we are ignorant from the
true effects of some of our own causes, but
after a certain point, we will no longer be
afforded protection and the full magnitude
of our causes will become effects."
Chief Joseph's face became very
dreamy as I began to remember the harm I
had done to others. Deeply ashamed, Joseph
wanted me to feel this, but he was
compassionate, "Remember the energetic
truth; it determines the validity of all
interaction. You were protected as you
followed your karmic path, your own
destiny protected you, but if you were to
engage in such acts now, you would not be
protected. Because your destiny protected
you, you have attained knowledge, and your
actions actually energized your path."
Knowing this did not lessen my remorse, for
it is through remorse and repentance that
humility is birthed. Sincere ignorance is
understood, even compassionately, but
chosen darkness is not tolerated by the Lord.
