The idea of doing what puts you in alignment with Universal Love is much different than actually putting it into action. It’s not because it isn’t how you truly want to be, it’s just that there’s so much conditioning against you that without constant vigilance it‘s difficult to sustain a connection to Universal Love for a substantial amount of time. We all have times when it’s easier for this then others, but we also have our times when we say screw it and self seek. Don’t be to hard on yourself, a lifetime of living one way with not change with a few sittings. The key is to keep focused on a practice that allows for the self seeking behavior to become less and less and for Universal Love to be more reflected in your actions.
This does occur naturally, but you do need to be willing to do what’s necessary. Sometimes it will seem like” what’s the use” but understand this is all part of the conditioning, the noise, the story, the unconsciousness, whatever you want to call it. Constant vigilance is a necessity if there is to be change because the old behavior is so deeply ingrained to let go of its control on its own. This is why most people don’t change because the dedication to investigate why you do what you do isn’t given 100% of your focus. It is impossible to get more out of your practice then what you put into it. If you give it 50% that’s what you’ll get out of it and your change will be minimum at best…
