Sacred Lessons

"Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature. Understand them thoroughly." Salvador Dali

A mistake comes from something in the past ~ a perception, conditioned response, belief, old wound or associated memory. This residue from the past warps my approach to the present, creating mistakes. Before throwing away a mistake, I can look at it to see what was its cause. When I discover the cause, I will experience compassion for myself and learn the lesson it offers. Only if I experience compassion for myself, will I know I have discovered the true cause of the mistake. Then I can reset my inner clock back to my sacred core and respond with wisdom. Today let me honour the sacred lesson of mistakes.
