You might be saying, “I am a spiritual person, not an activist. My spiritual solution tells me to work on raising my energy and expanding consciousness, and not concern myself the horrors of this world.”
Or you might be saying, “I cannot intentionally look away from suffering that I could possibly ease; suffering that my heart has asked me to ease. I am a spiritual-minded person, but I must be an activist.”
And there we have it. While these two perspectives seem to be contradictory, I’m comfortable in saying that every individual who loves the Divine Spirit within, has an activist heart. As far as I’m concerned there are countless ways of being ‘activist’, from meditating in seclusion to going forth and giving it all. We do what we have an affinity for, or what calls us.
