This is a Soul Awareness Teaching (SAT) by John-Roger. <\/p>\n
This is a seminar in which John-Roger explores a life of full commitment to God. \u201cI define this commitment as one of having no other alternatives available to you,” he says. J-R relates his own
\nexperience with this, \u201cNo matter what happens I’ve got to be able to get to God. I\u2019ve got to be able to do that. That\u2019s not a statement that is a commitment. There are no other alternatives left in my life.\u201d When in your life have you felt that deeply committed to something?<\/p>\n
J-R goes on, \u201cI think that if we really get commitment — like it is in the bone marrow in your life and you move on it — you\u2019re going start being like Peter who walked by and cast a shadow on a person and the person was healed by the shadow.\u201d That’s the implication of the kind of commitment J-R is addressing.<\/p>\n
As part of the commitment process and also as a pathway to commitment, J-R talks about spiritual exercises as they are taught in MSIA. He encourages each of us to find our own way of doing SE’s. \u201cWhen it comes to spiritual exercises,” he says, “there is no way I\u2019m going to say, \u2018come sit at my feet and I will show you how to do it.’ Spiritual exercises are not just a form or a motion or a tradition but it\u2019s your whole state of being.\u201d<\/p>\n
God Bless You!<\/p>\n
