In a world driven by logic, we are taught to look to facts
to help us make our decisions. Facts and data can be very useful in making
choices. That said, there is something more to consider.
Jeffrey and I recently watched a Netflix documentary called
The Social Dilemma, where pioneers who created our social media platforms
explained how computer algorithms are affecting what we see and perceive to be
truth.
That leaves all of us susceptible to what is being selected
for us, based upon our own established biases.
To be clear, I love my computer and phone, and I also choose
to be aware of how algorithms could be leading me toward my biases, because…
|
| … I discovered years ago that my own biases were at the
center of my spiritual work. My teachers expected me to question my biases. |
|
| |
Some of my earlier biases caused me to:
- Disbelieve Divine love existed
- Distrust my parents
- Believe I was unhealable
- Assume I was unworthy of a good life
- Think I was hopeless
I would not have ended my depression, forgiven my parents,
received the help of my ancestors from the other side, had mystical
experiences, known pure Divine love, healed myself, or helped other people heal
and awaken, if I had clung to my biases.
Recently, I once again picked up Don Miguel Ruiz’ book, The
Four Agreements. In the way of Toltec spiritual teaching, he shows us a way
to become present to our lives. If you have read his seminal work, and even if
you haven’t, here are two of the four wisdom teachings he offers us:
1) Be impeccable with your word. Speak with
integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against
yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction
of truth and love.
2) Don’t make assumptions. Find the courage to ask
questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as
clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama. With just
this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
In contrast, algorithms are based on assumptions that what
you have read or listened to in the past is what you want to read or hear more
of.
Algorithms don’t sift through the data to see what is based
in truth and love, nor do they deselect items that speak against you (minimize
or dismiss your experiences) or gossip about others (including sarcasm or
slander).
Computer algorithms don’t embody the beating, loving
heart of a human. And yet, how often are we relying on them to help us make
our decisions?
In debate, I learned that it was possible to argue any point
of view quite well, if armed with enough data. Facts can be applied in many
ways to make one’s case.
|
| However, my medicine teachers said, Think with your
heart. |
| | |
Why? The heart, filled with Universal love, is the center of
intuitive wisdom—the deep truth— that links you directly to Divine
consciousness.
Focusing on the heart or quieting the mind, will both
take you to this Universal love, or what the Greeks called agape.
As you probably know, when we live from this place of agape,
there are no enemies—not the Divine and not any human. Different perspectives
come from different experiences and/or different conclusions.
So, when it comes to knowing who or what to trust, here’s
what I do.
First, I don’t go to my computer or phone.
Second, I don’t make a decision based on one concern. If I
used one concern as criteria, Jeffrey and I would have divorced years ago! ;)
Rather, I quiet my mind and open my heart until I am in a
state of agape, and from this state of Universal love, I ask for guidance.
Perhaps you do something similar.
|
| | | In 30 years of facilitating circles, I’ve discovered that when we collectively make decisions from this place of agape, our choices are surprisingly similar and compatible.
|
|
That awareness has only served to deepen my trust in the wisdom
of Universal love.
In this time of uncertainty, I invite you to consider
whether the spirit of agape might also be your best pathway to trust.
Holding you in my heart and songs, |

What people experience with the Coronavirus Recording:
This sound healing session has been amazing for me in so many ways. For one, it has eased my concerns around this virus. It has also helped to clear other viruses in my body, I can breathe deeper and fuller after sitting with this a few times now. I feel more joy, more lightness of being. And I also feel held in such deep love. It also brought me in touch with my own sound medicine...It is a very deep a beautiful healing session that works on so many levels. Thank you so much dear Misa! —Jenny
This sound healing session affected me in profound ways. The first time I listened to it, I could feel it shifting and moving energy in my body. At points it was uncomfortable and immediately after listening, I started running a low fever, which Misa explains as a “healing crisis.” A day and a half later, the fever was gone and I felt better and stronger than I had all winter. This definitely cleared something out of my body (maybe multiple things), and helped me to heal. The next time I listened to the track, it was a much more easeful experience, but I could still feel it working, shifting my energy in a subtle way. Having this to turn to also provides so much mental and emotional comfort, which is priceless right now. Thank you, Misa! —Alison
