Response to the Coronavirus
Fear is generated when one cannot face an existing situation with trust in the Divine. Whether a person is symptom-free or has virus symptoms, one can be trusting and without fear, knowing that things do not ‘just happen, and that the Divine is always present. It is important to judge each situation with this in mind, and to let inner guidance determine one’s actions and choices rather than a statistical approach to life. Inner guidance is the way through any crisis, since it is person and situation-specific, whereas statistics are not. Pray for guidance about the decisions you are being called upon to make, and let this be your guide, rather than the statistics that are creating fear everywhere. This crisis, among other things, is bringing to awareness the choice between a sacred view of life, and a view in which impersonal forces act randomly. One makes this choice in each decision that arises.
