The Pattern of 3

In most spiritual paths, there seems to be a pattern of 3.

The Teacher. The Teachings. The Fellowship.

I don’t think the No. 3 is random. There is intelligence to it.

The key intelligence is that all 3 are equally important but only a 1/3 of the equation. So, if one fails which it seems is inevitable from time to time, then we have the other 2 parts of the equation to support us.

The most likely part to fail or falter will be the fellowship. Human behavior and old patterns are hard to change and break free from. So if the fellowship fails, one should not or cannot loose patience and become apathetic.

You have the 2 parts that are still rock solid. The Teacher. The Teachings. Why loose patience and get angry and react with negativity. What’s the end game?

Here’s the best part:

You are your Teacher.
Your mind is your Teachings.
You are your Fellowship.

Giddy up. Show up. Man up or Woman Up or Self Up.

For yourself.

Be Mindful.
