We are coming to an awareness that detachment and being aware of our divine purpose is the highest helpfulness we could have. You are then fully a part of the whole retranslation of the perception of the world. As you become aligned with forgiveness and clear away dualistic consciousness, you become truly helpful. The goal is not trying to make the world a better place.
When aligned with Spirit, the body doesn’t stay in meditation but still seems quite active and helpful. The key is the motivation: pure alignment with non-judgment and Spirit.
