ould there be a universal toolkit we could use in every aspect of our lives? As well as protecting us, these tools would help us stay open, creative and flexible as we meet the challenges of life. This toolkit is freely available, a gift we can pass on to others seeking keys to greater balance, joy and freedom in their lives. Highly adaptable, it takes up no space and allows us to travel lightly. The go-to component of this kit is a spiritual multi-tool, the sacred sound HU. A spiritual seeker since my youth, I first learned of this spiritual multi-tool decades ago and use it every day to open my spiritual eyes and ears and connect with my true nature, soul. A regular practice of singing this sacred sound HU, along with my spiritual studies in Eckankar, expanded my spiritual toolkit. HU connects me
with my highest awareness and opens me to guidance from my inner teacher. From this higher state of consciousness, I can welcome the waves of life for the learning they bring. HU has become an integral part of my work. Before engaging with a client, I pause, open my heart and sing HU silently, inviting the highest good for the person I am about to meet. I am humbled by the direction these conversations take at times, experiencing divine spirit flowing through me to bring insight and comfort to those in need. I am most grateful for having discovered the secret of a joyful heart, as Harold Klemp says in The Awakening Soul, “When our hearts are open to God’s love, then the divine power can use us as an instrument to pass divine love and blessings along to others”.
As I discover more about the nature of life and my toolkit reveals the everpresent divine love and guidance that is here for us all, I am compelled by the freedom this knowing brings to help others who seek it too. This is the joy of serving life as a volunteer in Eckankar. I am reminded of Joseph Campbell’s words, “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way”. Each day is an opportunity we all have to learn more about divine love, how we might give it, and how we might experience it, in even the smallest of ways. Isn’t this a fundamental principle of successful business, strong relationships and our own general health and wellbeing? www.eckankarqld.org.au
