Jill: (We are [[agents]] of [[change]] from the level of [[families]] up to the level of [[institutions]]. For those of us in service agencies, please give us some indication of how to make these [[changes]], how to move from a [[fear]]-based [[consciousness]] to a [[love]] based consciousness.)

So, my answer to you today is to do that sometimes very [[difficult]] work of coming to know yourself, to [[recognize]] when it is your [[ego]] functioning and when it is your [[personality]] functioning in adherence to [[spirit]]. Let me ask you this: Which [[voice]] is it that says, "That's your ego! You get that ego out of the way!" ? Indeed, that is the voice of [[ego]]. So, you cannot [[force]] your ego into [[submission]], but you can [[love]] your ego into the proper [[functioning]] with the personality. You can understand that the ego is there for particular reasons, that the ego has [[purpose]]. The ego needs to be [[recognized]]; the ego has [[fears]]. Love that ego. Calm the ego's fears. Allow the ego the [[protection]] it needs to be quieted. Do not allow one of the many heads of the ego to get into [[war]] with one of the other many heads of the ego.

[[Love]] is indeed the answer. [[Self]] love is crucial, loving your [[ego]], loving God, loving your [[creative]] [[expression]], and through this giving loving service. This is what [[changes]] the systems in which you [[function]]. It is through self [[focus]] that you become [[unselfish]]. This sounds [[paradoxical]], yet it is the only thing that will [[change]] these patterns of functioning.
