Today, 7 Tz’i invites us to speak what needs to be said with love and truth, take in the perspective from the summit, and listen to the words moving within our mind and heart.
Essential Questions
- What truth have I been avoiding saying?
- Do I need to have the last word in any argument? Why?
- How can I speak with love, integrity, authority, and loyalty?
- What perspective does the summit give me about what needs to be spoken?
At the summit of the midpoint of the K’at trecena, 7 Tz’i today is a reminder to reflect on what to say versus what is best left unsaid. When to express our views and when to hold our tongue and practice softness, stillness, and silence.
As the saying goes, you can’t please all the people all the time. Whatever we say or write, some will disagree. Others will resonate. Others will be indifferent. The point is the expression itself: the sharing of thoughts, feelings, ideas, experiences, stories, and questions. The statement, followed by the letting go of attachment to people’s reactions to it.
“Meditation is to find out if there is a field that is not already contaminated by the known,” according to J. Krishnamurti. The more we learn, the more we realize we don’t know. Where in the mind is there a fresh dewy meadow of openness, expansiveness, calm, curiosity, and possibility? Where can we let go of clinging to certainty, rigid expertise, prejudice, expectations, and joyless striving?
We are all already whole. It’s just a matter of remembering that.
7 Tz’i teaches about the courage to speak and the wisdom to let go. This is the energy of loyalty to our truth and cultivating the love and acceptance that allows others their own.
Maltiox, Nawal Tz’i.
