Analysis: Facing Great Reality

The Basic Text introduces a loving higher force. We name this presence freely. Meanwhile, The Big Book demands simple willingness. Belief unlocks hidden doors. Blind scales fall from weary eyes. A brand new world emerges.

Chief Luther Standing Bear described a unifying life force. This sacred breath connects all living creatures. Therefore, every being shares deep kinship. A Higher Power sustains this universal web. Compassionate wisdom guides our daily steps. Wellbriety teachings honor this sacred connection. “We find peace when we walk in harmony with creation” (White Bison, 2002, p. 145). Genuine recovery embraces spiritual awakening. We welcome profound transformation now.

LO QUE SE NECESITA PARA ENFRENTAR NUESTRA PROPIA GRAN REALIDAD – PASO 6

LLÁMALO COMO QUIERAS –

“Podemos llamarlo el grupo, el programa, o podemos llamarlo Dios. Las únicas pautas sugeridas son que este Poder sea amoroso, afectuoso y mayor que nosotros mismos.” (El Texto Básico, p. 24)

LA VOLUNTAD DE CREER EN UN PODER SUPERIOR –

“‘FUE SÓLO CUESTIÓN DE ESTAR DISPUESTO A CREER EN UN PODER SUPERIOR A MÍ MISMO. NO SE EXIGIÓ NADA MÁS DE MÍ PARA HACER MI COMIENZO’… Las escamas del orgullo y los prejuicios cayeron de mis ojos. Un mundo nuevo apareció ante mi vista.” (El Libro Grande, p. 12)

JEFE LUTHER STANDING BEAR –

“De Wakan Tanka, el Gran Espíritu, brotó una gran fuerza vital unificadora que fluía en y a través de todas las cosas: las flores de las llanuras, los vientos que soplan, las rocas, los árboles, las aves, los animales, y era la misma fuerza que había sido insuflada en el primer hombre. Así, todas las cosas eran parientes y se unían mediante el mismo Gran Misterio.” — Jefe Lakota Luther Standing Bear (1868 – 1939)

Análisis

El Texto Básico introduce una fuerza superior amorosa. Nombramos esta presencia libremente. Mientras tanto, El Big Book exige una simple voluntad. La creencia desbloquea puertas ocultas. Las escamas ciegas caen de los ojos cansados. Un mundo completamente nuevo emerge.

El Jefe Luther Standing Bear describió una fuerza vital unificadora. Este aliento sagrado conecta a todas las criaturas vivientes. Por lo tanto, cada ser comparte un parentesco profundo. Un Poder Superior sostiene esta red universal. La sabiduría compasiva guía nuestros pasos diarios. Las enseñanzas de Wellbriety honran esta conexión sagrada. “Encontramos la paz cuando caminamos en armonía con la creación” (White Bison, 2002, p. 145). La recuperación genuina abraza el despertar espiritual. Damos la bienvenida a una transformación profunda ahora.

    AA is where I feel connected to my higher power and to something bigger than myself. I can’t get sober alone but I can get sober as part of AA.

    I feel most connected to some greater than myself when I sing my daily mantra HU a love song to God. It brings me great peace and alignment throughout my day and helps me to tap into my inner guidance so I have the balance and clarity I require. This daily practice has served me well in life.

    When I open my eyes for the first time each day I am conneced to something far bigger than me. A loving and caring God that is my higher power.

    I so much want to be heard somehow by something more greater than me, because sometimes I don’t seem to be heard all the way by my creator. Still I’ll seek so much to go before them, and ask for their assistance in my life till heard. At least my great spirit has given me some protectin’ and the ability to grow plus a mind to never give up.

    In addiction, I have put myself in many positions that could have ended in horribly bad and much worse ways. I can feel my higher power helping to steer me away from the danger.

    This belief- in ‘something bigger than ourselves’- is fortifying. It allows us to feel supported when we are alone. It provides validation for good or ill. A carefully cultivated relationship with higher power can guide towards unselfishness and de-centralize the self.

    That’s a very simple question for me the answer is God… for me it has been God from the beginning he has helped me through all kinds of trials and tribulations. It’s a wonder I’m still alive. I consider it a blessing to have a relationship with my God.
    I’m not the man I ought to be, I’m not the man I should be but thank God I’m not the man I used to be

    Anytime I am in nature the greatness of some divine hand at play is clear. This is also true when I am in the presence of people. When two or more are present….this for me recognizes the significance that I am a part of something far greater, far bigger than just myself. The evidence for me is overwhelming in life.

    Thank you for sharing recovery with me. Grateful.

    FEATURED POST FROM THE ZONR VAULT – “That when I’m doing what I should be doing things just work and I can’t explain it. Maybe I could rationalize if I spent time on it, but I would rather just enjoy the synchronicity.” (Adam, 9/23/2012)
