scope - (noun) 1. the extent of the area or
subject matter that something deals with
or to which it is relevant: 2. the opportunity
or possibility to do or deal with something:
(verb) 1. assess or investigate (something):
2. North American Informal – look at
something carefully.
Daily living is all about making distinctions,
differentiating the incoming stimuli, labeling
what is experienced, comparing and contrasting
each stimulus, to identity, sort, and file it away
for current, or future action based choices.
I often find myself focused on what I am attending
to at the moment in my life, rather than what might
be beyond it, creating it, or fostering it.
From time to time, I receive guidance, like the note
featured here titled Scope, clearly urging me on
to expand my awareness, to stretch my spiritual
field of vision, to perceive beyond the simple
reality I live through and with each day.
For some of us, our current spiritual scope may
be all we desire at the moment, our existing
connection with God fitting our actual needs,
not requiring any further stretching or expanding
of our perspective.
I guess the question requiring some attention
is primarily - what is our personal scope; that is,
what are we seeking to achieve with our spiritual
quest? And based on this answer, if we believe
it appears warranted, we can assess what type
of scope adjustment needs to be considered.
Then perhaps, the note offered below, might
serve as a starting point or framework.
SCOPE
Scope is an essential aspect of the quest for a
positive, personal spirituality. Scope – the depth
and breadth of any earnest pursuit of clarity
or truth; a more encompassing perspective;
a more focused intention, one allowing us to peer
beyond the limits of the periphery, stretching our
field of vision, our comprehension, the elasticity
of standard or expected conscious possibility,
accepting full well the folly of material, concrete,
solid; conscious and aware no such a distinction
exists; here now, our scope is broader, blending
the dimensions of reality with imagination, secular
with the mystic, tangible with the forming and
formless: and now with this ever broadening scope,
we begin to reveal the true nature of being,
the continual incorporation of all with all,
a borderless, boundaryless wash of watercolor,
where this is attached to that, as our scope unravels
the folly of distinction, separation, uniqueness –
knowing only oneness, absolute unity.
