“CHILDREN ARE BORN TO US FOR A REASON.”

It is never to give us what our mind thinks is the ‘role of a parent’ (what we should be as adults), much less to tell us that the way we have lived our lives is right, or conversely, that our worldview or lifeview is wrong.

They are simply giving us an opportunity through their purest way of being to remember how significant it is, as unconditional love, our true nature, for being in the present moment and savoring the ‘now.’

This means that the moment we are able to see the divinity deep within their physical form, we are able to become truly humble and simultaneously, thereby we will be able to return to our purest state of being as true nature as same as them and transform their existence into a blessed opportunity for us.

This is not just about children, to whom are incident perception of us as if we owned them such as ‘my’ or ‘our.’ In fact, every child we encounter – even those on the other side of the news – is always offering us opportunities in this way.

Of course it’s not their conscious intention, but still many adults who become parents will be able to sense the unconditional love that comes up naturally from the deepest depths the moment they are born, the true love that is completely separate from emotion.

However, before that moment of bliss is over or not, many of us, who have long been all thinking first, will return to cling to a familiar way of being in thinking first more powerfully, such as ‘wanting them to stay alive,’ ‘wanting them on the right path,’ and ‘wanting them not to experience sorrow and suffering,’ through unconsciously our projection of fears that we have held on to.

Nevertheless, this is very natural progression for adults who still remain separated and isolated from their own divinity (spirituality and essence), the Consciousness itself.

But if we could listen to their pure voices with our purest hearts, if we could look at their natural way of being as they are with surrendering our all resistance, then we would be able to find out that they are giving us the opportunity to realize how we have become only thoughts – how out of our hearts we are.

In other words, their purest sate of being are telling us to put down the armor of our minds and open our hearts fully ( = the purest state) and face ourselves in a way more profoundly than we have ever done it before.

— Incidentally, when we are thinking first and getting caught up in the past, future, or ‘doing’, various phenomena actually appear in front of our eyes to inform us of this.

For instance, things that are not going as planned, children are not listening, and we are not finishing what we need to do, or we add extra work of our own by failing, and so on.

And actually in the time, as a matter of fact, usually we become so irritated and moreover actually, often take out that irritation at others even if we want to be rational. —.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

Furthermore, nonetheless if we keep choosing to be ‘mature adults ( = rational) as our minds think of, and keep not facing them head-on, instead of returning to our own true nature even in the face of their purity, sooner or later, it becomes a high possibility that reluctantly, they will become desperate from their helplessness, or very rebellious and unhearing, or, conversely, they will be taking the role of the good child as the good listener (i.e., the right way to be as our rational mind of parent think). It is because they will have no other choice for them who are under control of us to survive in the situation.

It’s just as we have grown up doing.

Yet, no matter how long we have lived the ‘parental role’ by thoughts first, and thereby have caused the relationship between parents and children to deteriorate, if we can choose to face each child and truly honest with ourselves (change our way of being into the way of being with prioritizing the hearts), we will be able to find that our relationship with them will naturally transform into a truly mature one.

‘True maturity’ is a relationship of mutual respect for each other’s existence, which means that whatever choices each of us makes, we do not try to correct the other with egoistical righteousness such as ‘right or wrong’ out of our own fear and moreover not selfishly interrupting the other’s territory, including both visible and invisible.

Furthermore such the mature relationship can be built up only by being based on true trust and comprehension that everyone just goes through necessary experiences, that there are no mistakes anywhere, and by going through that everyone can inevitably be mature as a person (i.e., deepening of spiritual connection as well).

In other words, this means that we can respect each child as they are, at least by continuing to truly face ourselves.

— Incidentally, this is the same principle as what is found in addicts that, through what they truly face themselves and the facts as they are, they can reconnect with spirituality (divinity), deepen their trust in existence itself, and at the same time, regain their inherent humility, they can return to their true nature as a true recovery by total surrender to the higher self. —.

Thus, as you can see, even if human beings cannot mature as a person by a rational mind (if the rational mind were truly effective, it would hardly occur for any conflict in the world today, and even if it did, we would be able to stop quickly with our rational minds), nonetheless if we truly face ourselves, even unknowingly reconnect with our spirituality and regain trust in our existence itself, we can truly mature as a person.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

However, we will find out for the first time even if we truly begin to face ourselves and choose to be present, that the simple way of being in the present is actually tremendously difficult for those of us who have lived our lives in a thought-first manner.

In fact, for many of us, the simplest way of being ‘in the now’ is the most difficult, and they are unable to be in the now because they are unconsciously driven by their familiar way of thoughts first and they can’t even realize it.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

In Japan, there is a saying, “Let a child take a journey,” which means not to take their precious opportunity away from them by our selfishness so-called parents because a child can trust one’s existence itself by their innate ability to overcome challenges, by connecting to their spirituality, and by inevitable maturity as a person, all through the journey by oneself.

It is to send children out into various experiences with full trust and pure love of hearts through our own connection to spirituality and our true trust in existence itself.

This is exactly the true confidence which is beyond the mind level, that leads to respect for other existence naturally even for one’s children, and moreover it can even allow ourselves the opportunity to mature more.

Incidentally, a similar proverb in English is, “Spare the rod and spoil the child.”

As you can see now, there is always a much more profound meaning there in all whatever it is, than is generally understood. (OM 🙏)
