In our lifetimes, we are faced with making the ‘right decision’ on seemingly small issues to life changing issues. The ‘right decision’ may be based on where we stand in our lives. From something as small as placing the shopping cart we just used into the cart rack so that it isn’t left in a parking spot, to something bigger such as helping someone in need or taking advantage of someone in a business deal.

For most of us, making a decision to do the right thing by not cheating someone out of their money is a no-brainer. For most of us, we just wouldn’t do it. But is there some level that it is not really that bad to cheat someone. What about the cashier who mistakenly undercharges you for something you just bought? Or, what about seeing someone drop something of value and they don’t realize it. Would you always run to catch that person? What is it that drives us to make the ‘right decision’? Is it because we just feel better about ourselves by doing the right thing or is there a feeling, belief or fear that you’re being watched? Just doing the right thing can sometimes be easier said than done.

The field effect refers to a level of consciousness or energetic signature that is attached to a person or a place. A temple will often have a field effect of peace whereas a concentration camp or battle field will hold a field effect of suffering and sadness.

In the Hindu teaching called Darshan, one receives a blessing when in the presence of a saint. Mother Teresa, for example, was a saint who embodied the field effect of love. To be in her presence was to be blessed with this energy. Mother Teresa did not come to embody love by accident rather she focused upon love on a continual basis until it became an integral part of her being.

We too create field effects in our lives, both those that are attached to our person and those attached to the places we inhabit.

Speaking of community, the poet Rumi writes that we are all wanderers and worshipers and lovers of leaving. That last word, “leaving” jars us when we think of the groups to which we belong: our churches and temples and places of worship. But, if he is right that we sometimes seem to love leaving, how do we deal with this, in our communities? How does faith and fellowship keep human beings together joyfully, in the face of all that happens in the world?
