I am here to collaborate with others. I am not for myself alone.
A cancer cell is a cell that has gone insane. It has disconnected from its natural intelligence. It has forgotten that it’s here to collaborate with other cells, existing to serve the healthy functioning of the system of which it is part. It has separated from the role to which nature has assigned it, gathering other cells as sick as it is to build its own kingdom in a world apart. This false kingdom, this malignant tumor, seeks to preserve itself by growing more of itself. Thus it threatens not only its host but also itself.
This is not simply a description of cells in the body. It is a description of the malignancy of consciousness that has infected the human race, separating human beings from our natural intelligence. This emotional malignancy threatens the whole of humanity, just as the disease of cancer threatens the body. The disease is the false belief that we are separate from each other, with no responsibility to anyone but ourselves. This distortion is a cancer that would lead to the destruction of our species. Now is the time to remember our true function, to return to our collaborative mission of working with others in support of the larger reality of which we are all a part. In that way, we will all be healed.
I am here to collaborate with others. I am not for myself alone.
