LISTEN OR THY TONGUE WILL KEEP THEE DEAF
American Indian Proverb

Now pause,
now possession is required,
and the power to swell the moment
from the resources of our own heart
until it supersedes
sun & moon & solar system
in its expanding immensity.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Be still, life, be still at the break of dawn,
and you’ll feel the sun’s light
when you hear the morning’s song.

The high value put upon every minute of time,
the idea of hurry-hurry as the most important objective of living,
is unquestionably the most dangerous enemy of joy.
Hermann Hesse
https://mailchi.mp/brainpickings/pythagoras?e=bc3afd75c6

The body that we have,
this very body that's sitting here right now in this room,
this very body that perhaps aches,
and this mind that we have at this very moment,
are exactly what we need to be fully human.
.......Everything is right here in order to lead a decent,
good, completely fulfilling,
energetic inspired life.
~Pema Chodren

Happiness comes from getting what you want,
whereas joy comes from being who you are."
~ Stephen Levine

I wish you all an awakening to the truth of who you are.

What the mystic sees is really very simple to understand,
but it needs a special kind of intelligence and a special perspective -
not an intensified intellect
but a kind of transmuted intellect
which can offer a totally different perspective
by transferring to a standpoint
beyond itself.

For the egoic being the outer world is seen as the face of an enemy.
The disruptive dualism from which all conflict arises
is not in the outer world but within the false perception
of the pseudo-entity who fails to see the world
as his own reflection.
Rasmesh S. Balsekar

AFTERNOON

When you shift your focus
from what is absent
to what is present,
from what is missing
to what has been given,
from what you are not
to who you are,
from the ravages of linear time
to the immediacy of Now,
you are reconnecting
with love, truth and beauty,
and abundance is yours,
effortlessly.
- Jeff Foster

Once, I ran from difficult feelings.
Now, they are my advisors, confidants, friends,
and they all have a home in me,
and they all belong and have dignity.
I am sensitive, soft, fragile,
my arms wrapped around all my inner children.
And in my sensitivity, power.
In my fragility, an unshakeable Presence.

In the depths of my wounds,
in what I had named “darkness”,
I found a blazing Light
that guides me now in battle.

I became a warrior
when I turned towards myself.
And started listening.

*A psychopath’s advice to dmm/ew
years ago that Changed depleting, paralyzing horrors
of the earthly Youthanasia Situation

It is wise in your own life to be able to
recognize and acknowledge the key thresholds:
to take your time;
to feel all the varieties of presence that accrue there;
to listen inward with complete attention
until you hear the inner voice calling you forward.
The time has come to cross.
~John O'Donohue

Article Link is at end.

As the psychoanalyst Carl Jung recognized,
Man everywhere is dangerously unaware of himself.
We really know nothing about the nature of man,
and unless we hurry to get to know ourselves
we are in dangerous trouble”
(Laurens van der Post, Jung and the Story of Our Time, 1976, p.239 of 275)

There’s a poet called Gerard Manly Hopkins
who wrote a poem about the human condition, in which he referred to
‘These mountains of the mind and their cliffs of fall,
frightful sheer,
no man fathomed’
(No Worst, There Is None, 1885),
and what he’s saying
is that while we haven’t been able to ‘fathom’ or understand
this great underlying issue of the human condition,
‘these mountains of the mind’,
it only led to the ‘cliffs of fall’ of ‘frightful’ depression.
So we’ve learnt that we had no choice but to leave the whole damn issue
of the human condition alone — just get on with trying to manage
the symptoms of it,
all the aggression and wars and inequality and suffering;
just resign ourselves to leaving that whole underlying issue
of the human condition alone.

When the great psychoanalyst Carl Jung wrote the following
he wasn’t exaggerating what happens
if we allow our minds to confront the human condition:
‘When it [our shadow, which is the darker aspects of our nature] appears…it is quite within the bounds of possibility for a man to recognize the relative evil of his nature,
but it is a rare and shattering experience
for him to gaze into the face of absolute evil’
(Aion: Researches into the Phenomenology of the Self, 1959; tr. R. Hull, The Collected Works of C.G. Jung, Vol. 9/2, p.10).
The ‘face of absolute evil’ Jung refers to is
the ‘shattering’ possibility
that we humans really are just a blight on this planet.

AFTERNOON...

From
Rev. Barbara Azzara
This has become my new habit.
When I become agitated, overwhelmed (and I do) I stop,
take a big breath and do nothing.

When my body becomes calm, I always ask myself
what is true and what is real?
Sometimes I ask: "where is the love?"
I hear: "do not listen to the voice of fear... stop and listen to mine".
How exquisite this moment becomes.

I do nothing...and then I take a big breath.
Focusing on the breath
---my thoughts disappear
...my mind becomes quiet and at peace.

This place is an oasis, a lake, an ocean of love.
I hear my heart beat and I am still.

I ask you to join me in the silence.

Take a very big breath,
hold it and then relax and let it go.
In this moment,
I am with myself, with you, and with G·d.

In this moment,
I remember that G·d created us with his Breath and in His image.
(I read this in the Bible and I know I am also His daughter.)
Let us be here together in the breath ...remembering.

Rumi
            "Unable to perceive the shape of you,
             I find you all around me.
             Your presence fills my eyes with your love,
              It humbles my heart....
                     For you are everywhere."

When I breath in with consciousness...this is what I inspire:
G·d is everywhere.

This then has been my experience.
As I have gone through my losses
(and what I experienced sometimes as betrayal)
this last year I turned it all over to G·d.

I, Barbara finally understand the difference between submission and surrender.
Whenever I would go into an emotional reaction,
I called on G·d.

Every thing has changed because I have changed the way I think.
I have changed my experiences,
and they are rich and filling.

12:05 AM-1/17/18

This was in the end of the movie: The Shape of Water
They are assuming Rumi wrote it.
For me it speaks of G-d.

"Unable to perceive the shape of you,
I find you all around me.
Your presence fills my eyes with your love,
It humbles my heart...
For you are everywhere."

And when I breathe in....this is what I inspire...
G-d is everywhere.

The below in this color font from
THE SECOND BOOK OF THE TAO # 55
Stephen Mitchell

Life is the companion of death;
death is the beginning of life.
Who can understand
how the two are related?
But if life and death are companions,
why should you be concerned?
All things are connected at the root.
We arrive here from the unknown
and go back to where we came from.

AFTERNOON........

What people love about life
is its miraculous beauty;
what they hate about death
is the loss and decay around it.
Yet losing is not losing, and decay
turns into beauty, as beauty
turns back into decay.

We are breathed in, breathed out.
Therefore all you need
is to understand the one breath
that makes up the world.
The Master is always conscious
of the mystery at the heart of all things.

COMMENTARY by Stephen Mitchell

After the joyful raucous skepticism of the earlier chapters---
a bucketful of ice water poured onto
you while you’re still snoozing
under the comforter--
this chapter’s mode of unknowing
is a grandmotherly kindness.

Life becomes very gentle
when you understand that you’re not living it.

...to understand the one breath:
The exhalation is not opposed to the inhalation.

It is strange that people don’t want to know about
the present, whose existence nobody can doubt,
but are always eager to know about the past or the
future, both of which are unknown. What is birth
and what is death? Why go to birth and death to
understand what you experience every day in
sleeping and waking? When you sleep, this body
and the world do not exist for you, and these questions
do not worry you, and yet you exist,
the same you that exists now while waking.

If you understand waking and sleep properly,
you will understand life and death.
But waking and sleeping happen every day,
so people don’t notice the wonder of it,
but only want to know about birth and death.
Ramana Maharshi

Tragedy stays alive by feeling what’s been done to us,
while peace comes alive by living with the result….
