QUESTION: Are you aware of your “Blind Spot”?
STORY: This little imaginative drawing expresses the humorous way our egos relate. I am ignorant of my “Chief Feature” or “Blind Spot”. Apparently most people are unaware of their own “Chief Feature” or “Blind Spot”. In 4th Way terminology - Chief Feature is the core feature around which the psycho-emotional, personal ego is constructed. It really takes WORK and sincere attention to become aware of this wizard part of ourselves. Now, I have lived with Cindy, my partner for over 30 years and I am just beginning to realize how important she is to me, as I do the WORK of discovering my “Chief Feature” or “Blind Spot” and remembering who I AM. Relationship is truly the source from which everything flows.
