“It’s not that people around you are at fault,” don Juan said. “They cannot help themselves. The fault is with you, because you can help yourself, but you are bent on judging them, at a deep level of silence.”
Carlos Castaneda, The Active Side of Infinity
On personal integrity hangs humanity's fate.
R. Buckminster Fuller, Critical Path
Our teachers said that in these seemingly difficult times, we have an opportunity to address and move beyond what they regard as the root of the current spiritual-socio-economic crisis: our individual and collective belief in scarcity, expressed in various forms of non-action, judgment and complaint, such as, “I perform my job very well, they are the problem,” “I can’t do what I enjoy and earn good money,” “Nobody appreciates my work,” “I deserve everything without effort,” “Work is hard,” “There’s not enough to go around.” All of these complaints are related to the idea that somebody else should be responsible for solving these dilemmas, and should keep “me” informed.
Our teachers maintained that the way we show up at work is intimately related to the way we show up in every aspect of our lives—so whatever you are doing at work, whether it’s contributing or complaining, see if you aren’t doing the same in other areas, such as your relationships, or personal health, or in the way you “play.” “You may be the exception,” they said. “Don’t take our word for it—find it out for yourself!”
So the question is: How does one move past victimhood and judgment to cultivate integrity, functionality, creativity and joy at work? Our teachers suggested that specifically, each one can start by asking the following:
What is the contribution I make, and what do I receive, related to how I make a living? Is the interchange beneficial to the earth and other sentient beings, and to myself—or is it detrimental? What is the mood of my lineage and cultures around work? Am I taking action to be aware, or am I waiting? Am I living from the premise that I have everything I need? Or am I operating on inherited beliefs of scarcity?
Although for many, the word “work” refers to the curse of something that one “has to do,” the origins of the German word arbeit, refer to “cultivating and working with the spirit of the land for food and sustenance.” In the view of our teachers, this is the ultimate mutually advantageous energetic relationship —we give our respect and love in taking care of the earth, and the earth lovingly gives us its wonderful gifts.
In this workshop, each participant will have the opportunity to make an in-depth review of their own personal history and beliefs around work, using specific tools of Tensegrity—magical passes and self-inquiry exercises—that lead us to conscious actions.
As our teachers asked: What better way to spend this time on this wonderful Earth?
