I had such a profound and transformative spiritual experience this morning that I feel compelled to write about it. I won't be able to transmit the authenticity and power of the emotional force but I will do my best.
I was meditating and, as is sometimes the case, I was conversing with the ineffable. It was about certain very subtle things that I was aware of and that I was trying to make a feature of my character and that I hoped would bolster my integrity, which I consider to be one of the most valuable qualities that a person can possess. I hold integrity and humility in a class of their own. Without these... what can I say? A person would be in serious trouble from my point of view and also on a sure and certain path to dreadful epiphany.
Now, I cannot remember what triggered a response on God's part. It had something to do with my making an effort, in a certain direction, that most people would consider trivial considerations. They were also things that would routinely escape notice; the kinds of behavior patterns that usually, only the person doing them would be aware of but... it's like that tale of the master with the three disciples and the three chickens, telling each of them to kill the chicken where no one could see them. The one disciple couldn't kill his chicken because, “everywhere I go, the chicken sees.”
