Chief Feature: What is my chief obstacle to awakening?
What we do mechanically is mainly our chief feature. Our chief feature blinds us.
A chief feature is designed to be transformed through Self-remembering into something divine: your Self. As we manage to relinquish imagination, we also relinquish features. — The Teacher
Weekly Exercise:
This week when you encounter a small friction in your day (a difficult person, a headache, an unpleasant noise, a sudden stain of food on your shirt…), try to notice it, and 'use’ it as a tool for presence, with the attitude “Not despite it, but because of it”.
The wise man is the man who in any one thing, can read another. — Plotinus
World of Dreams, Laura Alma-Tadema, 1852-1909
