Heard on Easter Sunday...
Rev. Eileen Patra used the metaphysical interpretation of Exodus 20:8 — "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy" — to illustrate the use of principle during times of changes. From this perspective, the commandment extends far beyond the traditional concept of setting aside the seventh day for rest and worship. Instead, it points to a profound spiritual truth about consciousness and our relationship with the Divine.
The word "remember" in metaphysical terms suggests bringing into present awareness or consciousness. The Sabbath, metaphysically interpreted, represents a state of consciousness. To "keep it holy" means to maintain this consciousness in a state of wholeness and spiritual elevation.
Rev. Patra shared a mnemonic to trigger the use of principle during frustrating situations:
S: Stop
T: Turnaround
A: and
R: Remember
It is an invitation to remember and maintain our connection with the Divine, not just on specific days, but as an ongoing state of consciousness. Thus, change becomes an opportunity for a shift in consciousness that manifests in our outer experience.
