You Are the Way
A Circle of Compassion and Light
Dear Everyday Mystics,
During the sacred stillness of our Healing Grace sessions* time dissolves and something eternal steps forward. In a recent session, Jesus came forward with a vision and message meant for all who feel called to remember the Way.
What follows is both the vision and the teaching, as it was received. I offer it here for you to enter into contemplatively. Let the words live in your heart. Let the imagery draw you into an ancient circle that has no beginning and no end.
✨ The Vision
To take you along on this mystical journey, I will describe the vision in more detail below. To share in the experience, read it then close your eyes and imagine yourself there.
I was shown a vision of Jesus sitting on a dusty patch of ground. You, along with many others, were sitting alongside him forming a large circle. There was a sense that you may have been with him when he walked the earth in physical form, but for certain you are with him now.
Emanating from Jesus’ heart chakra was a divine, radiant, white light, which filled the space inside of the circle. And then, like a mist, it floats into you, bringing you into communion with him and with each other. He is teaching you through this imagery, that divinity can omit no one. By its very nature it is all-inclusive, all-pervasive, ever-present.
Simply sit in with your eyes closed and become aware of what it feels like to be infused with—or to acknowledge that you are part of—the divine nature. You are a part of his divine nature. You are a part of the divine nature that he so exemplified when he walked amongst us. You sit with him now as a student of the Way. It's the Way of the Divine, the Way of the Good, the Way of Love.
What does your life look like when you are the Way?
📖 The Teaching
He was an example of the Way and he asks no less of you. He's asking that you become the Way. He says,
“To do this, you don't need books or fliers, courses or sign-up sheets. What you do need is to do everything with great love; to bring compassion into your consciousness so that it becomes a part of who you are. You must always ask yourself, how would you treat this person or that animal, or this plant or tree, if you truly had compassion for them?”
He understands that:
“It may be hard to get your mind around love/Love, but you can easily understand compassion. He says that divine love is nothing if not compassionate, and it exercises its compassion through you. He says, compassion and an open heart—life is not more difficult than this. You make it difficult, because you want to draw boxes around who should receive love, who should receive compassion. Who's included in your box, and who's excluded from your box?
“Get rid of the box. I have not asked you to include this one and exclude that one. The poorest child and the most exalted king are all part of my kingdom/queendom. I exclude no one, and neither should you. If you exclude someone, anyone, from your love and compassion, it's as if you have ejected yourself out of this circle.”
“I have not ejected you. You eject yourself, because the other is you. So, if you reject them, if you decide to withhold love and compassion from them, then you are withholding it from yourself and everyone else. Sitting in the circle represents your understanding, and willingness to understand, and more fully live in the unified state. He says, I exclude no one from the circle. It expands to include everyone who wants to live from a place of love. How else would you want to live? Yet if you desire it for you, you must desire it for all. It can't be exclusionary.
“Humanity is at the cusp of grasping this. This teaching must become a part of who you are—you must be conscious of it and consciously enact it in your own lives. You may not think you have a lot of people to practice this on, but you do. They might be people living with you, or pets, or the nature around your home. They might be clerks at a grocery store. They might be passing motorists. They might be people you read about in the news. A situation or population you see on television. All of them provide you an opportunity to love.”
💫 The Return to the Circle
Now go back to seeing yourself sitting in the circle emulating Jesus. See a divine white light start to build within your heart chakra and begin to pulse outward.
“Consciously send those rays of light to everyone else in the circle, which in your vision may include everyone in the world, all sentient and non-sentient beings. Notice that as you share that love, the light of love in your own heart chakra continues to grow. It is the only resource that, as you give it away, it grows bigger within you, instead of being depleted. It may appear that being a loving being takes effort and work until you remember that being an unconditionally loving being is your natural state. You came into this world loving and trusting.”
Let this remembering sink in. Let it undo what never truly belonged to your soul.
“You're being asked today to reclaim what has always been within you—before life conditioned you to be otherwise. And if your mind is tempted to go in the direction of blame—blaming parents, friends, colleagues, society, nature—for you having lost it, lost this natural state, resist. The only moment that exists is right now, and right now you have a choice. Do you want to remember who you are? Do you want to spend your energy, your time and your life assigning blame and guilt, thereby putting others in cages and imprisoning yourself? Every moment you have a choice. It's a moment for you to choose freedom. And this is how you get there: Say to yourself, now I choose love. And let that be the light and the Way for you for you, always.”

Who have I unintentionally placed outside my circle of compassion—and how can I return them, and myself, to love?
