spheres of influence

The way to change the world is not through politics.
The way to change the world is through one's sphere of influence.

We radiate energy outward in all directions.

The quality and power of that energy varies
with whether we are centering or not,
and what center we have chosen.

Doubt radiates doubt, fills the universe with doubt.
Fear and anger do the same.

Mindful Aware Compassion fills the universe with that big MAC.

The radiance of our energy transforms the world.

Each of us is a sphere of influence.
Every sphere of influence has a center,
a vibratory quality, and an area of influence.

We center in our heads, our hearts, our groins.
We center in wanting what we do not have
and not wanting what we do.
We center in lovingkindness and compassion.

We choose our center every moment.
This is a practice. We practice centering.
As our center goes, so goes the world.

We are spheres of influence.

The quality of our influence vibrates outward in all directions
from our chosen center. This influence occurs whether or not
we are in the direct presence of others. We are influencing
the quality and character of the world all the time.

The world is one big energy system
and we are its transformers.

  1. Finally, a big MAC I can live with! Great words for remembering what we are all about as we move through another day; remembering what our true mission is as our spheres of influence interact with others; remembering the world of the intranaut.

  2. I needed to be reminded of this, George. Especially the political part in the very first stanza. Thank you.
