Power, even the word power has a lot of emotional and ego charge in it, the word
as well as the concept.
The entire paradigm we are moving out of is based on Power Over Others. The society
we carved out is based on power over others and power over environment. Concepts
which were seen as advanced and necessary for the good of humanity. Which is why
so many individuals react in fear or negativity when they hear the word power.
The concept is that power has a hierarchical format, that there are people out there
who are either less, or more, powerful than we are. Although we might think this
structure is only used by dark workers, it is not. It is also used by light workers. For
example, in order to be of service to others, a person needs individuals, or situations,
around them that either have sleeping individuals (who they can help awaken), or
victims (who they can help out). The lightworker, is then in a position of having power
over others who are not powerful enough to help themselves. When someone is in the
path of Bodhisattva, they need people and environments that are suffering, so they
can go in and help out. It is a good path to eventually leave the cycle of power over
others, but it is the path, not the destination.
Lets take a look and see if we have some charge on the word power. The easiest
way to do this is to use the word in a few sentences and see if we react emotionally to
it. So, here goes:
I have power
I am all powerful
She has power
She is all powerful
He has power
He is all powerful
You have power
You are all powerful
They have power
