08 Communal living 共同生活
? ? The lifetime significant to your question involved a communal setting, such as a convent, monastery, or tribe. Your earthly needs for shelter, clothing, and food were provided for. Although you held a job within the community, you fulfilled your responsibilities for the group and not for individual gain.
? ? In your current lifetime, you may feel troubled by the concept of money, individual earnings, savings, and bills. You may feel unsupported, because your soul is accustomed to having a community support system.
? ? To assimilate in this lifetime, find the balance and harmony between individual and group needs, between give and take. Understand how you fit into the culture and how the group can help you achieve your individual goals and aspirations and further your spiritual growth. And remember, no man or woman is an island.
