@tao expressions: shoulds and shoulders and 'i am not guilty at all'


Isn't it funny how the word should is pronounced differently than shoulder?

Shoulders are extensions of the heart chakra, broadcasters of joyful radiance. Our arms, elbows, wrists, hands, and fingers are further extensions of the love energy. What about should and shoulder? Are they extensions of one another?

A quick look on etymonline shows us that the word should is a past-tense variation of shall, which in circa 1200 Old English was sceal. Etymonline also mentions that in Middle English the sense shifted to include the future(should started to become applicable in the future tense and not limited to the past tense).  In both should and shall exist a suggestion of obligation. 'To owe' is also a definition of sceal. Another relative of sceal is scyld, which comes to Schuld in German; they both translate to guilt in the Modern English language. Schultern is the German equivalent to Shoulders. It's worth mentioning here that English is an extension of the Germanic language family. Among other examples are the Lithuanian skeleti, which means 'to be guilty' and skilti, which means 'to get into debt.'  Old Prussian skallisman 'duty' and skellants 'guilty' come close.

Adding -er to the end of should, doesn't add to the pronunciation of it (that would yield something between shooter and shudder), but it rather changes partially to integrate the newly added suffix(shu becomes sho); in other words the pronunciation yields to the addition of -er. In light of another should variation stands shouldn't, in much closer proximity, in both meaning and pronunciation, to the base word should. 

Should resounds with guilt in many ways that it's being used in the current English language. Shouldn't rings with all the things people said you 'shouldn't do' which can easily suggest 'you shouldn't try'. My suggestion of avoiding the should-band-of-thoughts remain clear. It is best to avoid guilty thought altogether. This is one absolute truth of affirming 'I am not guilty at all.' In our heart of hearts, we desire the best of reality, which in alignment with the tao bears no burden on us as guilt. Guilt is heavy to shoulder; it is unnecessary weight. What could be easy to us becomes hard with the perception of guilt on our shoulders. 'I am not guilty at all' serves multiple facets of our psyche in attaining a position of ease in perceiving life's circumstances; yielding to a greater understanding of the tao; bearing witness to the innocence of the tao.


The should-band hits us at our weak spot: the guilt that need not be burdened. Surrendering pain and burden are essential components of the tao. It can be thought of as reconsidering guilt and coming into acceptance with the reality of what is. It's best to understand that source energy does not condemn or punish. The source of all-that-is never asked anyone to shoulder guilt. It's hilarious! It's humerus to know the shoulder can also be known as the bone of the upper arm. Thank you source for the divine inspiration of innocence. I yield to your paradisiac promise.

@tao

what about a heart chakra education? where are the schools for that? so where do students of the tao come together to learn from it? nature is one point of attraction the tao takes her students. there, one can observe the all-allowing guidance of the tao.

@tao

tao can be learned at any age

what does it mean to be one?

education @tao

education stems from the tao ceaselessly. education is abundant in the tao for the one who will listen to its call, yield to his force, and bend with her breath. healing is the essence of listening to the natural guidance of the tao. the tao is yours. we are one.

Education in a New Era


Sir Ken Robinson makes a compelling argument here when he tells us our education system is no longer serving us. Around 1:11 he reminds us that in his time they were told the story when he was in school that you worked hard, stayed in school, and got a job. As we learn around 2:35 , the current model of public education fed into the idea of the separating notion of upper and lower stratas of society, what we can call the caste system. This system holds in place ideas that keep poverty where it is today, with many children from poorer families not knowing their place in the world today. We need to be able to be  to shift in our way of thinking to a new paradigm, and this is just one example of that need today.


In this next video is a Shri Mateji's experiment with truth guided meditation dedicated to our centre of learning, our mind's eye chakra. What do the teachings of ascended masters like Jesus, Abraham, and Moses tell us about our education system? These are much different teachings than what we are learning in the West today. How can education be enriched from the perspective of peace?






In this next segment by Abraham, a young dreamer asks why these premises of Abraham aren't taught in schools. Imagine what school could be like with the education system being integrated and tuned up with the kind of spiritual information that Shri Mateji and Abraham are bringing to the discussion.




In this next segment, Abraham tells us about the vibrational world. This information has the power potential to guide us to the next level of our education. 



Here is further knowledge about education in a new era by revolutionary author and speaker Terence McKenna.



Here is another compelling talk by Sir Ken Robinson about the same topics.
