Inner Work

Accessing Compassion

 ~ A Universal Tributes Course ~

UNIVERSAL TRIBUTE FOUR


By continually doing my inner work, I engender compassion for myself and others.



PURPOSE

To explore inner work as a way for individuals to nonjudgmentally observe life experiences that can lead to increased compassion for themselves and others

BENEFITS

    1. To support and further the study of your inner state through engaging in inner work
    2. To learn more about the psyche and the spirit through inner work
    3. To use psychological and spiritual practices that promote healing of the psyche and spirit
    4. To learn from life experiences that support the development of compassion for self and others
    Continuous inner work provides the only way to address the denied parts of oneself through which one habitually has served. By removing the veil of unfinished business, one opens the way for Divine Will to manifest. The fruit of this unceasing inner work matures into deepened compassion for self
    and others.

    MAKING THE DECISION

    Are you looking for a way to be more comfortable within yourself?  Do you want to strengthen your inner life and expand your inner work?  Would you like to have tools to help understand the psyche of yourself and others through “spiritual eyes”?  Do you tend to have strong reactions?  Are you easily triggered?  Have you learned to observe your reactions without judgment?  Would you like to learn to respond from your True Self?  Are you looking for ways to learn more about spiritual gifts?

    Carefully read and consider the Universal Tributes Courses introductory page.  Ask yourself if now is the time to devote yourself to beginning (or deepening) your spiritual journey using the psychological-spiritual tool of the ten Universal Tributes.
