Sitting 183: The meditative mind

Beloved brother we would draw your attention to the meditative mind which each and every one of us has, not only of the human species but of the other animal and plant species as well. Yes dear friend, you are spirit and spirit is mind and the animals and plants are spirit and they are also mind. How can this be we hear you ask that a plant can have a mind. We would say to you how can it be that a spirit can exist without being a mind for you need that mind to enable yourself to produce your earthly body and a body is a body whether it be animal, vegetable, or mineral. The trouble with most of humanity is that they think that their physical brain makes them of a higher form than all other life.

We have news for you dear friends. Many of the animals you meet become your pets and though they do not have a developed brain as you have they have the inborn ability to love all that they come to know who treat them with kindness and affection and this ability alone lifts many of the animals to a much higher spiritual plane than most of your human kind.

We have said before, we will say again. The state of your mental ability, the state of your body, the position you hold or have attained during your life here, the fact that you are a king or a tramp

NONE of these things bears any relation to your spirituality or spiritual progress or position.

Were not most of the Masters we know of born in the lowest earthly positions. Think on it friends that the earth is nothing more or less than a school.
