Summary

Harmlessness as a virtue –– as an embodied energy, may be one of our most demanding calls as a species. It’s a commitment to the Universal Truth that can be hard to uphold. It’s tempting to wish harm on the harmful. The shadow self defines justice by metrics of punishment.

But Harmlessness… harmlessness is the way our Divine Nature pursues justice. We speak Truth –– without superiority hooks, or malice. We hang above the drama and duality. We offer the course of Right Action. We stay mindful that we all come from the same source.

Higher Love is a tall order in these days of division. Here’s a short podcast on why the high road is actually highly efficient –– and makes miracles happen.

0:00.0	I'm Danielle Laporte.
0:07.0	And essentially, this is a one-woman show about self-realization called With Love, Danielle.
0:15.0	I'll be talking about compassion, self-help fatigue, sex, joy, serving the world. This is about a spirituality that's
0:23.6	way more rock and roll than it is oppressive. I am not into making grand motivational promises,
0:30.3	but I can commit to showing up as fully, sincerely, authentically as possible with the intention of really alleviating suffering
0:41.3	and amplifying joy just for starters. It's about doing everything I can to help all of us feel
0:47.3	a little less crazy, a lot more full of possibility and clearly part of the solution.
0:59.8	Hello, my loves.
1:03.8	We are going to talk today about harmlessness.
1:15.4	Harmlessness as a virtue, harmlessness as our expression of spiritual warriorshiporship. All right. Who out there identifies,
1:21.5	fancies themselves as a spiritual warrior? You could take that down a notch. You'd just say, I'm an agent of change. You could be a little more subtle. And maybe you're stepping up to say, I just want to leave the world better than I found it.
1:31.3	All right.
1:32.6	I'm walking in the park with a friend who's not happy with the results of a particular presidential election, and he says, and this guy identifies as a peacekeeper, I just wish he would die, meaning the guy who got elected.
1:48.8	And I actually, I felt that in my heart.
1:52.7	I was like, ooh, wince, ouch.
1:56.0	You, you, my peace-bearing, spiritual, war-opposing, wise friend want to incite violence against this other
2:13.8	person. This doesn't make sense. So many times we are standing on
2:21.6	what we consider to be. And who knows, under the capital T truth, the big umbrella of truth,
2:27.8	we are standing on the right side of history, of law, of economics, of science, of literature,
2:36.7	of humanitarian work. we're there.
2:46.2	We are on that bedrock of virtue, and then we slip, and we get a little bit hostile with our words.
2:46.9	Our energy is violent.
