A lot of spiritual teachers and climate activists advise us to become the change you wish to see in the world. This includes the “The best known life coach in America” according to Psychology Today, Martha Beck.
We must chart a course through conditions as fluid as water, in such a way that we not only stop the destruction of our own true nature, but reverse it. As we do that — and only as we do that — we will naturally begin healing the earth. Our Team of wayfinders are people who feel an internal call to heal any authentic part of the world, beginning with their own true nature. If you’re a born “mender”, you’ll pursue this feeling almost in spite of yourself. And as you find it, you’ll automatically become the change you wish to see in the world, healing the true nature of the people and things around you.
~Martha Beck from the introduction: Figuring Out How the Hell We Got Here and What the Hell We Should Do Now in Finding Your Way in a Wild New World
By engaging in spiritual practices and work on ourselves, we find ways to step on the rocks of actions that we need to take instead of sinking into the ocean of despair. Remember the joke,
Jesus is walking across the water holding Mark’s hand.
Mark says, “Jesus, I’m sinking, I’m sinking.”
Jesus growls, “Step on the rocks, stupid.”
