Leer el t\u00edtulo de este folleto evoca im\u00e1genes de los desaf\u00edos que Rex Ambler pretende abordar. Si estamos prestando atenci\u00f3n a lo que est\u00e1 sucediendo en el mundo en estos d\u00edas, es probable que nos sintamos abrumados, golpeados, descentrados e inundados de incredulidad y desesperaci\u00f3n. Sin embargo, no esperaba que la respuesta de Ambler fuera prestar atenci\u00f3n a los consejos de los primeros Amigos. \u00bfQu\u00e9 podr\u00eda ofrecer el siglo XVII al XXI? La respuesta resulta ser \u201cbastante\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ambler se centra particularmente en William Penn. Penn sugiere que si miramos directamente a nuestra propia condici\u00f3n, nos veremos m\u00e1s claramente; si cambiamos un poco esa perspectiva, podremos ver el mundo con una nueva luz. Los asuntos importantes de la vida no est\u00e1n \u00fanicamente ah\u00ed fuera como hechos que pueden ser investigados, conocidos y sobre los que se puede actuar; tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1n dentro de nosotros. \u201cMirando en nuestro propio esp\u00edritu y meditando sobre \u00e9l\u201d, dice Penn, \u201ctendr\u00e1s un juicio profundo y fuerte de los hombres y las cosas\u201d. En su experiencia de la luz de Dios, los primeros Amigos descubrieron que no eran lo que pensaban que eran. Al aceptar lo que vieron, tanto la oscuridad que hab\u00edan elegido evitar como la luz que nunca hab\u00edan imaginado, se transformaron. Luego, al girar ligeramente el \u201cespejo de la verdad\u201d, pudieron ver el mundo tal como era realmente. <\/span><\/p>\n

Para acceder a esta verdad en el presente, dice Ambler, tenemos que renunciar a nuestras ideas preconcebidas. Tenemos que abandonar nuestros egos y nuestra necesidad de control. Tenemos que abandonar las im\u00e1genes y las historias, tanto sobre el mundo como sobre nosotros mismos, que hacen que las cosas se sientan m\u00e1s manejables y tranquilizadoras. <\/span><\/p>\n

Esto significa mirar la oscuridad, dentro de la oscuridad y a trav\u00e9s de la oscuridad. Tenemos que afrontar la realidad de que no estamos separados; no podemos influir en el mundo desde fuera. No somos buenas personas que buscan cambiar a las malas personas; nosotros y el mundo estamos torcidos juntos. Tenemos la opci\u00f3n de darnos cuenta de esta unidad o resistirnos a ella. Por lo tanto, la lucha en estos tiempos oscuros es, como dijeron los primeros Amigos, \u201cprestar atenci\u00f3n a la unidad\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n

Con esta perspectiva y sentido de conexi\u00f3n, podemos ver c\u00f3mo los intentos ansiosos de arreglar las cosas tienen sus ra\u00edces en el miedo y la vulnerabilidad que provienen de la separaci\u00f3n. Podemos apreciar y amar esta notable creaci\u00f3n, de la que formamos parte, que ha perdido el sentido de s\u00ed misma. La buena noticia es que vivir en respuesta al mundo tal como lo experimentamos, en lugar de a nuestras ideas sobre \u00e9l, nos permite dar testimonio con m\u00e1s fuerza. <\/span><\/p>\n

Me recuerda la sugerencia de Danier Snyder, en su folleto <\/span>
\n Quaker Witness as Sacrament<\/span>
\n<\/i>, de que \u201ccultivemos el activismo interior y la oraci\u00f3n exterior\u201d, y estoy agradecido a Rex Ambler por este breve y sencillo marco para vivir con valent\u00eda en tiempos oscuros.<\/span><\/p>\n
