When someone inspires you,
it is not wise to put them up on a pedestal,
as that creates inequality and separation in your mind.
it disempowers you,
and others who (seemingly) do not measure up to that person.
But instead take that inspiration,
and use it to help you see that same potential within everyone else.
I am inspired by Swami Radha...
but it does not do her, or me a service to place her above others.
we are all one.
And we all have access to that same potential for greatness...
that same potential to embrace the Divine, and the wisdom of the spirit within.
and I can choose to see that everyone I meet has that same wisdom and greatness within them,
and much greater potential as well.
That way I am using her inspiration...
I am keeping it alive.
but at the same time holding to unity consciousness.
and not separating her from others.
