Leader: Eric
Six sensing Cayce students gathered to begin the chapter on Patience. We read the Introduction, went to the Experiments book, then watched a David McMillin video on the topic.
Experiment: This is an experiment in self-observation. Be aware of the dimension of life which the readings call ‘‘patience.” How are you responding within yourself to things going on around you? You may frequently hide that inner response from others, and yet it is an important factor in your growth in consciousness. Each day before you go to bed take a few minutes to think back over the day and write down inner responses you had to events of the day which you did not express or allow to show (e.g., when Jane made that remark this morning, it hurt my feelings and I felt angry, but I didn’t let it show). Indicate which of your responses were in accord with your ideals (e.g., when John said he appreciated what I had done it made me feel really good towards him and myself; such feelings are in accord with my ideals). Make an effort during the week to respond in ways consistent with your ideals, even to those situations which usually evoke a negative response.
