Rise & Grind 👑 🙌🏾

So let’s connect the The Smokey Mirror story from The Four Agreements with everything we’ve been talking thru the last few months. All is one, there should be a connection between the story and Taoism, Hermetic Principles (7 Universal Laws), Unlocking Our Brain’s Potential, and the Power of the Heart.

So what’s the connection?

Taoism Connection/Vibe:
– In Taoism, we’ve talked about Wu Wei, or the art of going with the flow, right? The Smokey Mirror story is kind of saying the same thing. It’s all about how we’re made of light, but we get distracted by the “smoke” or illusions that cloud our view of reality. That smoke is all the noise—expectations, judgments, and ego. In Taoism, they’d tell us to let go and flow with the natural rhythm of life, and once we do, we start seeing the truth: we’re all connected.

Hermetic Principles Connection/Vibe:
– Remember when we discussed how “all is mind” and how what we think shapes the world around us? Well, in the Smokey Mirror, it’s the same deal. The smoke is basically our thoughts and perceptions messing with how we see things. Once we clear that mental fog, we realize we’re pure light and love, and everything around us is too. It’s like taking off sunglasses indoors—you see things more clearly, and life just feels lighter.

Unlocking Our Brain’s Potential Connection/Vibe:
– When we talked about rewiring our brain to reach its full potential, it was all about changing our thoughts and breaking free from old patterns. The Smokey Mirror connects here because the man in the story realized that most of what holds us back is just illusion—smoke. Once he saw through it, he tapped into his true potential. It’s like unlocking a new level in a game—you break through the mental barriers and suddenly realize there’s so much more you’re capable of.

The Power of Our Heart Connection/Vibe:
– We’ve already learned that the heart is stronger than the brain and can guide us if we learn to listen. In the Smokey Mirror, the man realizes that we are made of light and love—which is exactly what we’ve been talking about! The smoke is just like the walls we put up, and once we let our heart take the lead, that fog starts to clear. We start living from a place of love and intuition, rather than fear or doubt.

The Interconnectedness of it all:

– Whether we’re talking about Taoism, Hermeticism, the brain, or the heart, the message is the same: we’re all connected. The Smokey Mirror shows us that we’re all reflections of each other, but the smoke (illusions, judgments, society’s expectations) keeps us from seeing that. Once we clear that smoke, we can see ourselves—and each other—for what we really are: stardust, light, and love.

Long story long….the Smokey Mirror is saying what we’ve been learning all along. Get rid of the illusions and you’ll find your truth. Our truth is full of potential and connected to everything around us. Whether it’s through mindfulness, going with the flow, or tapping into heart power, it’s all about clearing the fog and seeing the world (and ourself) as it truly is. 🙏🏾
