The saints differ from us in their exuberance,
the excess of our human talents.
Moderation is not their secret.
It is in the wildness of their dreams,
the desperate vitality of their ambitions
that they stand apart
from ordinary people of good will.
Phyllis McGinley
How Saints Differ

A fertile solitude
is a benign forgetting of the body that takes care of itself… A productive solitude,
the solitude in which
what could never have been anticipated appears,
is linked with a quality of attention.

Eternity is not a long time;
rather, it is another dimension.
It is that dimension to which time-thinking shuts us.
And so there never was a creation.
Rather, there is a continuous creating going on.
energy is pouring into every cell of our being right now,
board and brick of the buildings we sit in,
every grain of sand and wisp of wind.

—Joseph Campbell
Myths of Light

You would measure time
the measureless and the immeasurable.
You would adjust your conduct
and even direct the course of your spirit
according to hours and seasons.

Of time you would make a stream
upon whose bank you would sit
and watch its flowing.
Yet the timeless in you
is aware of life’s timelessness,
And knows that yesterday
is but today’s memory
and tomorrow is today’s dream.

And that that which sings
and contemplates in you is still dwelling
within the bounds of that first moment
which scattered the stars into space.

—Kahlil Gibran (1883 - 1931)

For the birds there is not a time that they tell,
but the point vierge
between darkness and light,
between being and nonbeing.

You can tell yourself the time by their waking,
if you are experienced.

But that is your folly, not theirs.

—Thomas Merton

By the time you are
by the time you come to be
by the time you read this
by the time you are written
by the time you forget
by the time you are water through fingers
by the time you are taken for granted
by the time it hurts
by the time it goes on hurting
by the time there are no words for you
by the time you remember
but without names
by the time you are in the papers
and on the telephone
passing unnoticed there too

who is it
to whom you come
before whose very eyes
you are disappearing
without making yourself known

Mystical Spirituality...
Being an unapologetic "mystic" at Heart, since childhood,
means for me experiencing the Living Presence of Life
that animates all life.
Some call that God, The Divine, The Beloved, The Ineffable,
"The Mystery", Consciousness, Infinite Being, Spirit, Brahman,
The Tao, etc., etc., etc.

It has many names and forms.
It means being able to see and experience "The Mystery"
in the every-day-ness of life;
something I'm still "working" on -
being more aware of the Sacred in a chaotic world,
in the mundane personal affairs of living;
the requirements of daily life:
in the must do's and the have-to's
that always find their way to the top of my list,
and seem to drive
life...

A "mystical spirituality" pertains to direct experience
with Ultimate Reality/The Divine/"The Mystery"...
Some may assume that a
"mystic" doesn't experience the darker feelings
and frustrations with living the Cosmic Dance of life.

That has not been my experience.
A "mystic" just experiences them
within context of the Greater Reality
- and learns to embrace them
as part of the totality of experience.
Some feel that a "mystic" has special insights, or powers, or visions,
or is only interested in seeking "mystical experiences."

For me it is not about seeking experiences,

but being open to the
movement of "The Mystery",
the movement of Consciousness
through its many expressions,
and at times experiencing
an intimate encounter
with what I know to be "The Divine"

like my Epiphany in Nov. 2013,
or Waking Up To Bliss like I did recently, or "meditative
writings" many years ago,
and poetry that sometimes just spills
out onto the page.

Mystical Spirituality acknowledges the universality
of what most have come to call "God,"
"The Divine", or Buddha Nature (Dharmakaya),
not associated with any particular faith, religion, or practice,
but a transcendent truth -
realizing that humans, at the very core of their
being are both "Divine" and human;
formlessness and form, spirit
in matter, Timelessness in time...

This "union" takes place within ourselves
with the realization that we are not a separate entity from
our Divinity, from Consciousness ItSelf,
needing to grovel our way back -
but that "comm-union" is always happening.
There is always
only the movement of "Divinity" through life,
through us.
There is no other "Higher" Self to search for.
It's all Here within us...

Wayne Teasdale, a 20th Century Christian Mystic, and author of
A Mystic Heart, says:
"Mystical Spirituality draws us into the depths
of our Being, where we come face to face with ourselves,
our weakness AND with the Ultimate Mystery.
Spirituality is not external religiosity,
not confined to ritual and liturgy.
It is a way of life that affects and
includes every moment of existence.
It is a disposition to a life of depth."

He goes on -
"How we make the journey is what spirituality is really
about - finding our own path.
This means finding a way to/awareness
of the vast unlimited Consciousness of The Divine,
The Mystery within.

We are created for this 'spiritual journey' -
the direct and immediate experience of Ultimate Reality,
which knows everything as ItSelf.
Being infinitely aware,
it knows in a unitive and universal
fashion through awareness
of no distance between ourselves and
the Ultimate Mystery...
The spiritual journey is essentially one of
discovering the roots of our true identity.
It is a process of the totality
of Consciousness,
from which we arise.

He further says -
"Everything is part of an undivided wholeness where
each being reflects this totality.
Non-duality means
'not two, and yet, not one.'
[I know this is not the traditional Advaita/Non-dual
definition, but it is my experience as well.]
That is, the relationship
between Divine Reality and human being
is a subtle distinction,
but not a separation.
And so the relationship is said to be non-dual.
Human beings are essentially Divine."
[or Pure Consciousness, etc.]

Two Difficulties on the Path of Meditation – Osho
MEDITATION = WITNESSING
BY OSHO

Good or evil, beautiful or ugly, you are separate.
You are the witness, you are just a mirror.
Anything that passes by does not affect the mirror at all. Something good – the mirror reflects.
Something bad – the mirror reflects.
When they have gone,
the mirror is as empty as ever.

Your consciousness is a mirror,
and your consciousness is neither good nor bad.
Your consciousness may have lived thousands of years,
but not even a scratch is possible on your consciousness.
It only reflects; its function is reflection.
That’s why I say the divine between you and me is the same – there is no difference at all.

I just have recognized
that the witnessing is a pure mirror,
eternally pure –
and you get identified,
you forget. […]

Once you get the knack of witnessing without judgment
you will be surprised:
the moment you are utterly a witness
all the thoughts disappear.
There is simply a plain white screen and no thoughts.

This is the first experience,
that you have come to the door of meditation.
Just go on looking at the white screen.
Don’t do anything.
Consciousness has a nature –
if it cannot find any object which prevents it,
then it goes round and comes back to you.

AFTER the above Whisper Writes

There is no beyond to be taken to
There is only before:
before beliefs,
before ideas and concepts,
before stories and histories,
before imaginations,
before words,
before language,
before projections,
before emotions,
before sensations,

before love and hate,
before good and evil,
before every this and every that.

Solving Yourself: Yuben de Wu Hsin
March 19

Whatever is conceivable lies latent in the Potentiality.
Whatever the Absolute conceptualizes, appears.
This is the mechanism of manifestation,
the expressions of the Absolute.

Consciousness is the screen
on which the stream of images appear.
It is the light that illuminates the images
and it is the content of the stream.
It is the observing of the rise and fall of all things.
It is invulnerable.
What damages can the reflections cause
to a reflective surface?
Solving Yourself: Yuben de Wu Hsin
March 20

AFTERNOON

Before you know what kindness really is
you must lose things,
feel the future dissolve in a moment
like salt in a weakened broth.

What you held in your hand,
what you counted and carefully saved,
all this must go so you know
how desolate the landscape can be
between the regions of kindness.

How you ride and ride
thinking the bus will never stop,
the passengers eating maize and chicken
will stare out the window forever.

Before you learn the tender gravity of kindness,
you must travel where the Indian in a white poncho
lies dead by the side of the road.
You must see how this could be you,
how he too was someone
who journeyed through the night with plans
and the simple breath that kept him alive.

Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside,
you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing.
You must wake up with sorrow.
You must speak to it till your voice
catches the thread of all sorrows
and you see the size of the cloth.

Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore,
only kindness that ties your shoes
and sends you out into the day to mail letters and
purchase bread,
only kindness that raises its head
from the crowd of the world to say
it is I you have been looking for,
and then goes with you every where
like a shadow or a friend.

I was dead. I came alive.
I was tears, I became laughter.
All because of Love,
my temporal life,
from then on changed to eternal.
– Rumi

Empty yourself of everything.
Let the mind rest at peace.
The ten thousand things rise and fall
while the Self watches their return.
They grow and flourish and then return to the source.
Returning to the source is stillness,
which is the way of nature.
Lao Tzu

Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself
and know that everything in this life has a purpose.
There is no need to go to India
or anywhere else to find peace.

You will find that deep place of silence
right in your room,
your garden
or
even your bathtub.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

http://www.puresilence.org/a_tradition_of_silence.htm

In the attitude of silence
the soul finds the path in a clearer light,
and what is elusive and deceptive
resolves itself into crystal clearness.
Ghandi

At the still point of the turning world.
Neither flesh nor fleshless;
Neither from nor towards;
at the still point, there the dance is,
But neither arrest nor movement.
And do not all it fixity,
Where past and future are gathered.
Neither movement from nor towards,
Neither ascent nor decline.
Except for the point, the still point,
There would be no dance,
and there is only the dance.
T.S. Eliot

There is nothing mind can do that cannot be better done
in the mind's immobility and thought-free stillness.
When mind is still,
then truth gets her chance to be heard
in the purity of the silence.
Sri Aurobindo

Under all speech that is good for anything
there lies a silence that is better.
Silence is deep as Eternity;
speech is shallow as Time.
Thomas Carlyle

AFTERNOON

Sagittarius – Thursday, February 6, 2020

Getting a good plan off the ground is getting complicated due to a number of hard to control issues.
To get what you need,
it is necessary to simplify and prioritize
all the options at your disposal.
There is a foolproof way to successfully
pull yourself out of the stress zone.
Stop the chatter in your brain.

Listen to your breath for short spells.

And you will find all the answers you seek plus more
from an unconscious source.
https://boothstars.com/2020/02/06/sagittarius-thursday-february-6-2020/

Change the Lighting
If you can’t change yourself, after all
the efforts, change the light
by which you read your story.

Exchange overhead for something softer –
a lamp, a candle, a vine of shining
holiday lights – and feel yourself
become hugged by the fabric of shadows.

You see the darkness here has wisdom too.
You see these objects around become related
by the pregnant emptiness that holds them,
and you.

Let this light reveal the rapture
of being just this. Then, further still, try
moonlight, or no light, until, at last,
this open, sourceless incandescence
which you are
no matter who you think you are
will follow you from the inside
wherever you may go, however
you may change, or not.

Death, a Blessing in Disguise – Osho

Whether you run or you stay
it doesn't matter
death comes.

Death has started coming closer to you
from the very moment you were born.
In what form it comes does not matter.

Bertrand Russell has said
that if there were no death in the world,
there would have been no religion.
He has some great insight there:
without death,
who was going to bother about meditation?

Without death,
who was going to bother to know
about the secret mysteries of life?
One would have remained always concerned
with the mundane and the worldly.
Who would have turned inwards?
There would have been no Gautam Buddha.
So death is not just a calamity,
it is a blessing in disguise.

If you can understand,
if you have this much intelligence
— that after birth, death is approaching every moment closer --
you will not lose your time in trivia.

Your priority will be to know what this life is before it ends:
Who is living in me?
What force?
For every intelligent man and woman
this is the priority.
Everything else is secondary to knowing oneself.
Once you know yourself, there is no death.

Death was only in your ignorance.
In your meditative consciousness,
death disappears just as darkness disappears
when there is light brought in.

Meditation brings the light in,
and death is found to be the greatest fiction.
It appears only from the outside that somebody is dying.
From the inside nobody has ever died,
and that is where your life source is.

Chintan is taking his death very joyously,
very peacefully.
He will die consciously.
He is giving every indication
that death cannot make him unconscious,
cannot knock him unconscious.

He will retain his consciousness,
and he will have a laugh as he will be dying,
because the whole world is living in an illusion.

Life is neither born nor dies.
It has been before birth; it will be after death.
Birth and death both are small episodes
in the eternal stream of consciousness and light.
Excerpt from:
https://o-meditation.com/2020/01/31/death-a-blessing-in-disguise-osho/

I am dead already
Physical death will
make no difference in my case.

I am timeless being.
I am free of desire or fear,
because I do not remember the past
or imagine the future.

Where there are no names and shapes,
how can there be desire and fear?
With desirelessness comes timelessness.

I am safe, because what is not, cannot touch what is.

You feel unsafe, because you imagine danger.
Of course, your body as such is complex and vulnerable
and needs protection.
But not you.

Once you realize your own unassailable being,
you will be at peace.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

AFTERNOON

citizen of dark times

Learn tropism toward the difficult.
We have not arrived to explain, but to sing.

Young idealism ripens into an ethical life.
Prune back regret to let faith grow.

When you hit rock bottom,
dig farther down.

Grief is the seed of singing,
shame the seed of song.

Keep seeing what you are not saying.
Plunder your reticence.

Songbird guards a twig,
its only weapon a song.
~Kim Stafford

Stay light-footed and keep moving

Do you hear what
the violin
says about longing?

The same as the stick, "I was once
a green branch in the wind."

We are all far from home.
Language is our caravan bell.
Don't stop anywhere.
The moment you're attracted to a place,
you grow bored with it.

Think of the big moves you've already made,
from a single cell to a human being!

Stay light-footed, and keep moving.
Turkish, Arabic, Greek, any tongue
is a wind that was formerly water.

As a breeze carries the ocean inside it,
so underneath every sentence is,
"Come back to the source."
Rumi

Coming to Terms with Nothingness
What we call emptiness and nothingness
is merely a relative notion or experience,
like moving from the positive to the negative
before both eventually fall away
and all that remains is what Is.

Nevertheless,
if there is any aspect of this journey
I would stress or emphasize,
it is the evident necessity of finally coming to terms
with the nothingness and emptiness of existence,
which, for me,
seemed to be the equivalent
of living out my life without God –
or any such substitute.

Only when this came about,
only when the acclimation
to a life without an ultimate reality
was complete,
when there was no hope,
no trust remaining,
only when I have finally to accept what is,
did I suddenly realize that what is,
is Truth itself and all that Is.

I had to discover
it was only when every single,
subtle, experience and idea
– conscious and unconscious –
has come to an end, a complete end,
that it is possible for the
Truth to reveal Itself.

MID-MORNING SESSION - OCEAN "OFFICE" SPACE

AFTERNOON

The restlessness in the human heart
will never be finally stilled
by any person, project, or place.

The longing is eternal.
This is what constantly qualifies and enlarges
our circles of belonging.
There is a constant and vital tension
between longing and belonging.

Without the shelter of belonging,
our longings would lack direction, focus, and context;
they would be aimless and haunted,
constantly tugging the heart
in a myriad of opposing directions.

Without belonging,
our longing would be demented.

As memory gathers and anchors time,
so does belonging shelter longing.
Belonging without longing
would be empty and dead,
a cold frame around emptiness.

John O'Donohue
Excerpt from this EXCELLENT writing:
http://www.passionart.guide/project/john-o-donohue-celtic-reflections-on-our-yearning-to-belong/

A long dark curve is the poem in your body
is the river
is the loon's throat.
Have you ever asked yourself how
the loon's voice
opens?

You know it first as change in the body.
Even if the blue place you are dreaming
is no longer there
you must begin.
Something that desires to lift
these heavy bones
something simple
and beautiful
miraculous as a feather
forms along the blade
of each wing.

Poised, no longer
settled
you wait as every part of you sheds
what once was,
and is no longer
necessary.

Close to shore you prepare.
And what will it cost you?

And what is this
haunting and wild, now
still in your throat, now
trembling
Set it free
whatever it may cost you
set it free.

here i came to the very edge
where nothing at all needs saying,
everything is absorbed through weather and the sea,
and the moon swam back,
its rays all silvered,
and time and again the darkness would be broken
by the crash of a wave,
and every day on the balcony of the sea,
wings open, fire is born,
and everything is blue again like morning.

What began in those early days
was the seed of today's grace,
and it must continue to grow,
but without being in any way spectacular
or drawing attention to itself
(Fenelon:
"Beware the humility that can speak its own name").

In my younger days
there was a great deal of wanting to be noticed
for my weariness of the world,
love of silence
and the urge to solitude.

True as all that may have been true then,
it was too self-conscious to be very deep.
God made up for my limitations,
as God does for each of us.

Now I live,
not as someone who has cut herself off from the world, found the solitude, and wants the world to know it,
but as a person who hopes to serve
- without knowing it -
God's plan to be revealed in the world
and to the world.
This, then, makes clearer to me what it means to be - "Hidden with Christ in God".

AFTERNOON

I have been thinking of the difference between
water and the waves on it.
Rising, water's still water, falling back, it is water.
Will you give me a hint how to tell them apart?
Because someone has made up the word "wave,"
do I have to distinguish it from water?
There is a Secret One inside us; the planets in all the galaxies pass through his hands like beads.
That is a string of beads one should look at
with luminous eyes.

The universe goes on its merry, mystical, magical way

We feel that we can exercise our volition,
yet deep down we know
that there is an order infinitely more powerful
which seems to dictate our life.
****

The man of wisdom is devoid of ego
even though he may appear to use it.
His vacant or fasting mind
is neither doing anything nor not doing anything.
He is outside of volition, neither this nor that.
He is everything and nothing.

The truest communication with God
is absolute, total silence;
there is not a single word in existence
that can convey this communication.
Bernadette Roberts

Ultimately, then, union with God is not really complete until there is nothing left to be united:
between self (the still center on the affective continuum)
and God (the still-point)
there is no gap remaining.
What is left is what Is, all that Is
and Its identity
is unmistabkable.

A friend recently told me
that the falling way of the affective system
was invariably a psychotic symptom.
While I had never heard this before and cannot verify it,
my present perspective is quite the opposite.
As I see it,
the affective system is not only
the cause of every psychological illness,
it is the cause of all man's suffering.

AFTERNOON

I have lots of things to teach you now,
in case we ever meet,
concerning the message
that was transmitted to me
under a pine tree in North Carolina
on a cold winter moonlit night.

It said that Nothing Ever Happened,
so don’t worry.
Everything is ecstasy,
inside.
We just don’t know it
because of our thinking-minds.

But in our true blissful essence of mind
it is known that everything
is alright forever and forever and forever.

Close your eyes,
let your hands and nerve-ends drop,
stop breathing for 3 seconds,
listen to the silence inside
the illusion of the world,
and you will remember
the lesson you forgot,
which was taught in immense milky ways
of cloudy innumerable worlds long ago
and not even at all.

It is all one vast awakened thing.
I call it the golden eternity.
It is perfect.

We were never really born,
we will never really die.
It has nothing to do with the imaginary idea
of a personal self, other selves,
many selves everywhere,
or one universal self.

Self is only an idea,
a mortal idea.
That which passes through everything,
is one thing.
It’s a dream already ended.

There’s nothing to be afraid of
and nothing to be glad about.

I know this from staring at mountains months on end.
They never show any expression,
they are like empty space.

Do you think the emptiness of space
will ever crumble away?

Mountains will crumble,
but the emptiness of space,
which is the one universal essence of mind,
the one vast awakenerhood,
empty and awake,
will never crumble away
because it was never born.
—Jack Kerouac
https://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2019/10/information-for-matt.html.

Remembrance Rock

You are born with the soul,
but you are absolutely unaware of it –
because of the mind.

The mind never allows you to be in the present.
That’s the reason my insistence on meditation is so strong –
because meditation simply means a method to get rid of the mind.
The moment the mind is not there, suddenly you are in a new space:
so fresh, so beautiful, so blissful.

That is your soul; that is your no-mind.

And once you have entered that space,
that space starts growing around you
and creates a certain energy field.
That becomes your presence of being.
-Osho

Expecting the worst, you look, and instead,
here's the joyful face you've been waiting
to see.
Your hand opens and closes and opens and closes.
If it were always a fist or always stretched
open,
you would be paralyzed.
Your deepest presence is in every
small contracting and expanding.
The two as beautifully balanced and
coordinated as birdwings.

AFTERNOON

Joy is the inevitable result of gentleness.
Gentleness means that fear is now impossible,
and what could come to interfere with joy?
The open hands of gentleness are always filled.
The gentle have no pain.
They cannot suffer.
Why would they not be joyous?
They are sure they are beloved and must be safe.
Joy goes with gentleness
as surely as grief attends attack.

AFTERNOON

I AM
By HK Rolle
(Inspired by God)

I am my very own thoughts and emotions.
As deep as the Ever Flowing ocean.
Colorful to the plain eyes I appear.
Hold me, and I am visibly clear.

HK Rolle - Inspired by God
Always-Youthing-in-Divine-Grace...Harbour Island Native Woman/Friend

Whenever the insistence is on the point
that God answers prayer,
we are off the track.
The meaning of prayer
is that we get hold of God,
not of the answer.
Oswald Chambers

Obedience to the call of Christ
nearly always costs everything to two people-
the one who is called,
and the one who loves that one.
Oswald Chambers

He who wherever he goes is attached
to no person and to no place by ties of flesh;
who accepts good and evil alike,
neither welcoming the one
nor shrinking from the other --
take it that such a one
has attained Perfection.

"Bhagavad-Gita"

What we call suffering, and experience as suffering,
isn't actually suffering.
It is confusion, illusion, misperception.

Suchness is the only thing we ever really experience.
Reality is not, as we imagine it to be,
difficult and painful.
It is always only just as it is suchness.

Mind is like this.
It is deep, pure, and silent.
But when the winds of delusion blow,
its surface stirs and what we call suffering results.

But the waves of my suffering
are nothing more or less than mind.
And even as I rage, the depths below remain quiet.

Life is the wind.
Life is the water.
As long as life appears as phenomena
there will be the stirrings of delusion.

Delusion is in fact the movement,
the stirring,
of awakening.

My ocean mind is inherently pure and serene,
always.
When I know this,
I can navigate the waves with grace.

Why a 'Dark Night'?
Ron Rolheiser

“…a deeper presence of God, a presence that,
precisely because it goes beyond feeling and Imagination
can only be felt as an emptiness, a nothingness, and absence,
a non-existence.”

"Mother Teresa underwent a Dark Night of the Soul. This is what Jesus suffered on the cross when he cried out, ‘My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?’ When he uttered those words, he meant them. At that moment, he felt exactly what Mother Teresa felt so acutely for more than 50 years – namely, the sense that God is absent, that God is dead, that there isn't any God. But this isn't the absence of faith or the absence of God; rather, it is a deeper presence of God, a presence that, precisely because it goes beyond feeling and Imagination, can only be felt as an emptiness, a nothingness, and absence, a non-existence.

divine magnetism

There is something in personal love, caresses,
and the magnetic flood of sympathy
and friendship,
that does, in its way,
more good than all the medicine in the world.
—Walt Whitman

The Self is like a powerful magnet within us.
It draws us gradually to itself,
though we imagine we are going to It of our own accord:
when we are near enough,
It puts an end to our activities, makes us still,
and then swallows up our personal current,
thus killing our wrong personality.
It overwhelms the intellect and over floods the whole being.

We think we are meditating upon It and developing towards It,
whereas the truth is that we are iron filings
and It is the Atman-magnet that is pulling us towards Itself.
Thus the process of finding the Self is a form of Divine magnetism.
—Sri Ramana Maharshi

.. everything can have an effect on us.
And all things affect us from a distance,
the near as well as the remote things,
nothing touches us;
everything reaches us across divisions.

And just as the most remote stars cannot enter us,
the ring on my hand cannot do so either:
everything that reaches us can do so
only the way a magnet summons and aligns the forces
in some susceptible object;
in this way, all things can effect a new alignment within us.
And in view of this insight,
do proximity and distance not simply vanish?

—Rainer Maria Rilke
Letters on Life

The chooser's happiness lies in his congruence with the chosen,
The peace of iron filings, obedient to the forces of the magnetic field.
Calm is the soul that is emptied of all self,
In the eternal moment of co-inherence.
A happiness within you - but not yours.

—Dag Hammarskjöld

The Daily Lesson – May 24, 2019

If there is a person left in this enlightened age
who is still engaging in malpractice

—trying to destroy the life which is God,
or trying to prove that there is a power
other than God-power--

it is an object lesson to watch what happens to him
when his malpractice hits up against a person
who has perceived the truth that God is individual life.

If we believe that there is an evil power
from which our understanding of God will protect us
or if we believe that we have an ‘in’ with God
that will save us from some evil, we are lost:
we have accepted two powers,
and according to our belief so is it unto us.
~Joel S Goldsmith
A PARENTHESIS IN ETERNITY
Chapter 11

II Corinthians 4:6,7
6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
Proverbs 19:5 (KJV)
5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.

Bearing false witness is accepting a sense of separation from God.
Living in that state of understanding we are subject to the consequences of that lie.
~Al Denninger
www.iwso.org/thedailylesson.htm

People discuss dogmas, beliefs, and moral principles,
as they know them.
But there comes a time in a man's life
when he has touched truth of which he cannot speak in words;
and at that time
all dispute, discussion, argument ends.

from https://wahiduddin.net/mv2/IV/IV_34.htm

The intellect is the wrong tool for relating to What-Is
in the same what that a net is the wrong tool for gathering water.

Unattached to body, unattached to mind,
allowing everything just as it is.

What could be the problem?
Wu Hsin

As soon as the Truth is realized,
the process of self-destruction
which is personal existence
is transformed into immortality.

Profound Not-Knowing - Jeff Foster
One of my favorite things to do is to sit with my elderly father
who has Alzheimers. It's a beautiful thing to just sit in a place
of profound not-knowing with him, a place where I do not
know what to say or do.

I sit, without expectation,
without trying to 'fix' him,
or manipulate his experience in any way.

I just listen,
without trying to make things better in the moment,
without playing the role of 'the one who knows'.
I am simply available to him.

I don't need to 'know' anything in this place...
And here,
I notice a deep and profound acceptance
of any wave of frustration or sadness
that appears in the ocean of experience.

And this seems to be
what true relationship is at its very core -
meeting, really meeting in the moment,
without hope, without
a future, without expectation, without a story.
Coming face to face with - yourself.

Nisargadatta Maharaj says:
"What remains is the great sadness of compassion"

It is not cold detachment and neo-Advaita
world-rejection,
but the
intimacy of the most unspeakable kind.

Jeff Foster

AFTERNOON

the silent self
There is a silent self within us
whose presence is disturbing precisely because it is so silent:
it can't be spoken.
It has to remain silent.
To articulate it, to verbalize it,
is to tamper with it, and in some way to destroy it.

Now let us frankly face the fact
that our culture is one which is geared in many ways
to help us evade any need to face this inner, silent self.

We live in a state of constant semi attention
to the sound of voices, music, traffic,
or the generalized noise of what goes on around us all the time.

This keeps us immersed in a flood of racket and words,
a diffuse medium in which our consciousness is half diluted:
we are not quite "thinking",
not entirely responding,
but we are more or less there.

We are not fully present and not entirely absent,
not fully withdrawn,
yet not completely available.

It cannot be said that we are really participating in anything
and we may in fact, be half conscious of our alienation and resentment.
Yet we derive a certain comfort from the vague sense
that we are "part of something"
-- although we are not quite able to define what that something is --
and probably wouldn't want to define it even if we could.

We just float along in the general noise.
Resigned and indifferent,
we share semi-consciously
in the mindless mind of Muzak and radio commercials
which pass for "reality".

- Thomas Merton

This Dance of Bliss - Goethe

What is this dance of bliss
Cascading through my senses?
I feel new life, holy rapture
Burning through my nerves and veins.
Was it a god who shaped these symbols
Summoning this inner ecstasy,
Filling my impoverished heart with joy,
And revealing, through some mysterious impulse,
Nature's secret sinews surrounding me?

Am I a god? I am filled with such light!
In this pure array of emblems I see
Nature's workings laid bare before me.
Only now do I comprehend the sage's wise words:
It is your mind that is closed, your heart that is lifeless!
....rise without fright,
and bathe your earthly breast
in the rosy dawn's light!

As all things, one in one, are woven,
Each in the other works and lives and is whole!
While heavenly beings climb and descend
Passing down their golden pails,
And with their incense-pinioned wings
All heaven and earth are blessed;
They sing in symphony
through all things!

Goethe

This poem is from a newly published, inspiring collection
of poetry by classical mystics, seers and saints from all
traditions, called This Dance of Bliss, compiled and edited by
Ivan Granger of Poetry Chaikhana. He also offers his
reflections and commentaries on the poems...

The Daily Lesson – August 27, 2018

“Only my body is visible, but not I:
‘I and my Father are one,’ and we are invisible; we live in each other--
the Father in me, and I in the Father, inseparable and indivisible.”
~Joel S Goldsmith

John 14:8-11 (to :) (KJV)
8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me:
John 10:30 (KJV)

30 I and my Father are one.

Un-illumined reasoning thought [i-Philip]
only sees the body and wants to somehow witness God in the same way.
If that were possible,
that would make two separate beings – a man and a God.
“I” [The infinite invisible Father Within]
only Sees Itself,
Ever-Present,
Ever-One,
All-Knowing
and
All-Doing.

innocence
My gaze is clear as a sunflower.
My way is to walk the roads
Looking right and left
And sometimes looking behind me...
What I see at each moment
Is that which I never
Caught sight of before.

I have the knack of full awareness
The knack of essential astonishment
That an infant might experience
If at birth he were aware
That he was actually born!
I feel myself born at each moment
Into the everlasting newness
of the world.

I believe in the world
As I believe in a daisy
Because I see it.
But I do not think about it
Because to think is to not-understand.
The world was not made
For us to think about it
(To think is to have sick vision)
But for us to look at it and assent.

I have no philosophy: I have senses ...
If I talk of nature, that is not because
I know what nature is
But because I love it, and love is for this only:
For he who loves never knows what he loves
Or why he loves, or what love is.

Loving is eternal innocence
And the only innocence is not-thinking.

Death is not the greatest loss in life.
The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.
Norman Cousins

Ah, not to be cut off,
not through the slightest partition
shut out from the law of the stars.
the inner- what is it?
if not intensified sky,
hurled through with birds and deep
with the winds of homecoming.

AFTERNOON

For what is it to die
but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?

And what is it to cease breathing
but to free the breath from its restless tides,
that it may rise and expand
and seek God unencumbered?

Only when you drink from the river of silence
shall you indeed sing.

And when you have reached the mountaintop,
then you shall begin to climb.

And when the earth shall claim your limbs,
then shall you truly dance.

AH!
THE SILENT GLORY OF BAUBO
5:18 AM-8/5/18

The vastness of the question
The contradictory feelings of hope and hopelessness,
meaning and flatness, anxiety and rest.
The shakiness and uncertainty in the belly.
The tightness in the throat.
The raw breaking inside the heart.
The joy that at times is there, but never can seem to be sustained.

All the techniques, the teachings, the things to manifest,
the new beliefs to take on, the worn-out ideas
about the true source of peace, aliveness, and flowing abundance.
Perhaps there were once answers to these questions,
but now there is no answer to be found.
Only a burning where the questions once existed.

This burning is the doorway,
the portal,
pure evidence of the connection.

A cosmic sort of exhaustion
can come at times,
where we find ourselves in the bardo
between one moment and the next.
We can’t quite go back to the way it was,
but the rebirth has yet to appear.
There is a creativity in the liminal
but it can seem out of reach.

We are asked to marinate in the womb of now,
tend to the groundlessness, and find refuge in the unknown:
to be midwife to the darkened illumination.
There are signs and symbols and guidance all around and inside us,
but their appearance is governed
by a timeline written somewhere else.

As we bear witness to a new day, in awe at the gift that has been given…
the breath is here.
The heart is quivering.
The birds have come.
Sounds from the other world,
another opportunity to hear,
to behold the miracle of the senses.

The sun has come up again.
The moon is hiding nearby waiting her turn.
For just one moment,
the veil parts and the perfection is there
awaiting our participation.

Your life is not an unending self-improvement project
and your heart is not a venture to be undertaken, mastered, and completed.
Perhaps today was never going to be the day
when you figured it all out,
got all your questions answered,
or resolved the contradictions.

It's just too wild for all that.
Just too creative.
Just too alive.

Today may not be the day for answers,
but to let your heart break open
to the vastness of the question.

To fall to the ground as a humble lover of the mystery.
And listen once again.
Matt Licata

AFTERNOON

Life is what it is, you cannot change it;
but you can always change yourself.
Bowl of Saki, August 4, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan:
In Sufi terms the crushing of the ego is called Nafs Kushi. And how do we crush it? We crush it by sometimes taking ourselves to task.
When the self says, 'O no, I must not be treated like this,'
then we say,
'What does it matter?'
When the self says, 'He ought to have done this, she ought to have said that,'
we say,
'What does it matter, either this way or that way?
Every person is what he is;
you cannot change him, but you can change yourself.'

That is the crushing. ...
It is only in this way that we can crush our ego.

Every time that we notice its pinprick,
every time that its thorns appear before our eyes,
we should crush it and say,
'What are you?
Are you not thorns, are you not the cause of unhappiness
for others and myself as well?
I do not want to see my own being in such a form,
in the form of thorns!
I want my being to be turned into a rose,
that I may bring happiness, pleasure, and comfort to others.'

If there is anything needed in spiritual teaching,
in seeking truth, in self-realization,
it is the refinement of the ego.
For the same ego which begins by being our worst enemy,
will in the end,
if developed and cultivated and refined,
become our best friend.

Jamie K. Reaser - It Will Be in the Silence
Sometimes you come upon a place that
beckons you into silence: an old stone bench,
a lake shore, a certain time in your life. Nothing
small can reside there.
.

I’m looking for that place now, the kind of place
that puts clocks to rest because something must
come forth to reset everything. I don’t want to
follow these rules and constructs anymore -
written, not written, felt.
.
Something is asking me not to,
and it is wise.

Reason doesn’t have roots that run deep enough
to tap the place that I am longing for, that place
where obvious things cannot be explained. That
place that is called sacred even by those who
have never used the word before.
.
I want you to sit and wait with me,
away from the noise and the voices
of those who speak only
to rob you of your name.
What most needs to be heard
hasn’t yet been said.
.

The Daily Lesson – August 5, 2018
“If all our charity, benevolence, and philanthropy were done anonymously,
if any and every bit of good we do were done
without letting a single soul on earth know that we were the instruments for it,
our reward would be tremendous.
There is no God in heaven looking down, patting us on the back, and saying,
‘Oh, my dear son, that is so wonderful of you. I will reward you.’
No, nobody need know anything about what we have done:
the law itself,
the law that we have set in motion,
knows and will operate
to reward us openly.”
~Joel S Goldsmith
A Parenthesis in Eternity

Matt 6:3-5 (KJV)
3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
Mark 4:22 (KJV)
22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.
Rom 12:2 (KJV)
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

In the moment The Spirit Dwells in us we become His Instrument.
Our Love is no longer personal - but unconditional - and Present on earth
as it is in Heaven.
In that moment,
all that The Father hath is thine,
and all that thy hath is theirs….

And all that is left is a satisfied Smile.
Who are you going to tell?

Sweet vanishing into Godby newoma

This mystic cannot help her vanishing
into the living mystery of God…

it calls the soul beyond everything I have ever known
and then surprises by manifesting creatively…..
infinitely…….and intimately

in the feathering of divine essence
as such variation and beauty…
i experience a melting of all identity
in the softness of love
and the magnificence of light
in the gift of caressing waves of peace….

God is an artist of stroking color and vision…
a sculptor of glorious expression….
the sound and symphony
of the evolution of spinning stars…

a glowing luminous and embracing moonlight …
mountainous stairways to the sky…….
whispering tenderness….
an interior river of flowing peace…….
an eternal companion…….

magnifying and enlarging and deepening
the expanse and reach of divine love..
the sacred path
of the sweet revelation
of relationship
where everything is transformed into life itself..

i surrender into the sacred surroundings
of an absolutely enchanting Beloved..
this is the exquisite and elegant dwelling
within the One
from whom we come..

AFTERNOON

The axis of love invites us from the confines
of the ego into the vastness of a love
that spins every atom.
It has never been easy to accept the invitation.

Ikkyu, the 15th century Zen poet,
chided the priests of his own time:**

"Every day, priests minutely examine the Law
And endlessly chant complicated sutras.
Before doing that, though, they should learn
How to read the love letters sent by the wind
And rain, the snow, and moon."

**See this link for wonderful story of Ikkyu
http://thetattooedbuddha.com/2015/05/31/ikkyu-a-renegade-zen-master/

The intimacy and tenderness of the Absolute
reveals Itself where It wants.
In one moment
it is the salt smell of the sea,
the sunlight in a field,
the clear chill of autumn,
the dewdrops on a spider's web.

Another moment it is in the heart,
an unbelievable sweetness,
the total belonging to an unnameable presence.

Along the axis of love, we know real belonging.
It works with the majesty of God
to draw us nearer and nearer,
ultimately in devotion and complete surrender,
until we realize that we are the oneness
that includes all of creation,
we are the love
alive in every cell.
~Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2018/07/13/27703/

there is no diminishing life force
....don't even worry about it.....
.
the circle is unbroken......no energy is ever lost......we can stop...
...we can simply live and be well.....
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2018/07/13/27703/

Every human being is born with some sort of gift,
an inclination or an instinct that can become a full-blown mystery.
We may not see our gift for what it is.
Each of us is a master at something,
and part of becoming fully alive is to discover and develop
our birthright competence.
Our tendency to identify ourselves
with our acquired skills rather than our natural gifts
is one of the less desirable habits of the ego.
It is the ego that decides what skills it prizes,
the ego that exerts the effort to develop those skills,
the ego that manipulates and markets
those skills once it acquires them.

So when we seek our own birthright gifts,
it is important not to equate them
with the techniques our society names as skills.
Our gifts may be as simple as a real interest in other people,
a quiet and caring manner,
an eye for beauty,
a love of rhythm and sound.
But in those simple personal gifts the seeds of vocation are often found,
if we are wiling to do the inner and outer work necessary
to cultivate our mastery.
~Parker J. Palmer
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2018/07/13/27703/

« Sometimes we say of particularly unpleasant people,
‘Oh, what poison!’
or
‘Here comes the plague!’
and we can’t wait to get away from them.
Whereas with others,
it is just the opposite:
as soon as we lay eyes on them, we breathe more freely,
and we never want to leave their side.
The truth is that by their emanations,
humans are veritable pharmaceutical laboratories,
and laboratories house toxic products as well as remedies.

The person you love, for example,
is for you a laboratory that contains
the most beneficial substances.
As soon as they appear, even if you are exhausted,
you get up, your eyes sparkling.
Similarly, by their presence alone,
some doctors have such a positive influence on their patients
that merely by taking their hand,
they practically restore them to health.
Healing particles actually emanate from them.

But don’t wait for science to speak out on this matter!
Strive to purify your emanations
with thoughts and feelings
full of light and love,
and
you will become doctors for one another. »

This listening is the art of meditation,
in the learning of which we come to a place of transition
where truth leaves the mind and enters the heart.
In other words,
there is no longer merely an intellectual knowledge about truth;
but truth becomes
a living thing within our being.
― Joel S. Goldsmith, The Art of Meditation

Immortality is attained in proportion
as personal sense is overcome,
whether here or hereafter.
As we put off the personal ego
and attain the consciousness of our real Self
– the Reality of us,
divine Consciousness –
we attain immortality.

And that can be achieved here and now.
― Joel S. Goldsmith, The Infinite Way

The crucifixion of the self is accomplished
when there is nothing left
for which you wish to pray.
― Joel S. Goldsmith, The Infinite Way

The very moment that any form becomes a necessity in our experience,
we are placing our dependence,
our happiness, and our joy in that,
instead of in the Infinite Invisible
which is the cause of the form,
and we are idolaters.
― Joel S. Goldsmith, Practicing the Presence

Be willing to be used by God;
be willing to be used by Truth.
Be willing to be an instrument through which Truth reveals Itself,
but do not attempt to use God.
Never try to use God, Truth.
If you understood the nature of God,
never would you pray to God for any thing.

Deep Silence of My Peace
https://www.mysticsoftheworld.com/product/deep-silence-of-my-peace/

From the depth of this inner silence
come forth the healing waters.
These waters bring everlasting life.

Out of the depth of this silence comes the Spirit,
which appears as our cloud by day and our pillar of fire by night.

Out of the depth of this silence come the safety and the security which always follow the peace that God gives.

Many have turned to this talk
in times of sorrow or doubt
and have found healing and release.

“I do not ask you to believe the signs.
I do not ask you to believe,
even if you experience a healing;
I will only ask you to believe
if you feel the Touch within you,
the Presence,
the Light,
the Life.

In the deep glens where they lived
all things were older than man
and they hummed of mystery.
— Cormac McCarthy, “The Road”
The world hums.
It shivers endlessly.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2017/12/08/scientists-are-slowly-unlocking-the-secrets-of-the-earths-mysterious-hum/?utm_term=.ba37622644f5

While there is a part of us that very genuinely wishes to heal, awaken, and transform, there is a lesser known part that has an unconscious investment in maintaining things the way they are. We wonder why after years and even decades of working on ourselves, meditating, praying, surrendering, doing yoga, and going to therapy it can seem like nothing is changing.

Learning to contact and provide safe passage for those parts that are terrified of healing is an act of profound kindness and mercy. In ways that are paradoxical and bewildering to the mind seeking control and the maintenance of the status quo,
this radical act of befriending all parts of ourselves
is what makes true healing possible.

Our avoidant strategies--
those historically configured ways of organizing our experience
and staying out of too much vulnerability
and the nakedness of unguarded immediacy--
arose to serve a very specific function,
to protect us from overwhelming anxiety
that threatened the survival
of a ripening little brain and nervous system.

While in a moment of activation it can seem so personal,
like we have failed, forgotten some sort of “secret,”
or that something is fundamentally wrong with us,
to remember the neurobiological realities
of a young, empathy-seeking infant
can wash away the shame of fantasized failure.

AFTERNOON

Tuesday, May 8, 2018
Sometimes, you go climbing in the mountains.
You must have noticed that it is the rough edges of the rocks
that enable you to climb.
How could you do so if the rocks were smooth?

So, why is it that you fail to apply what you know about rock-climbing
to this great journey called life that is much more meaningful?

Why do you want your life to be smooth, and free of rough edges?
In such conditions, you will never reach the top,
and more importantly,
you will tumble on your way down!

Luckily for you, life is full of rough spots,
and it is thanks to them that you are still alive.
So, do not complain about obstacles, inconveniences, and enemies:
without them, you would have nothing to hold on to in order to climb.

People who want an easy, peaceful, opulent life,
do not realize that in reality, they are asking for their downfall.
Fortunately, heaven does not listen to them,
it knows what they need in order to progress.

Below in this Font from
It's okay to be shaky
Matt Licata

It’s okay to be shaky,
to not know anymore,
and to allow your heart to break.
To fall to the ground and bear witness
to the reality that life was never going to turn out
the way you thought it would.
It’s just too wild, too creative,
and too devastatingly magic for all that.

Rather than spin from the death as if it were a defeat,
with your breath as your guide, travel inside.
There are jewels hidden there, filled with meaning,
with pure feeling, and with relentless
outrageousness of love
as it erupts into the world
of time and space.

You will never find your life’s purpose by way of a frantic,
urgent, exhausting search.
Your life’s purpose is to live.
Fully.
To participate, to take a risk,
to slow down and see the signs,
to commune with the colors,
the songs of the birds,
and to listen to
the intelligence of the stars.

The forms that love take
are by nature arising and dissolving
in each moment,
for this is the way of form.
But love itself is that which never comes and goes.
You never know what form love will choose to take in the future,
for there is no love in the future.

Love is only now.
You will never be able to resolve or pin down
the movement of love as it is infinitely creative
and at all times unfolding
into greater wholeness.

If you become too fused with a specific form
you believe you need love to take,
your heart will inevitably break
when love obliterates that form
for something new,
which it always will.

This shattering is the great gift of form.
This dissolving and reorganization
is a special kind of grace
that the mind cannot know.
But the heart knows.
The body knows.

Before you seek to “heal”
your heartbreak via spiritual process,
turn to your heart and ask
if it truly wishes to be mended.
For this breaking is sacred,
sent here so that new forms may emerge.

Be grateful for the forms of love while they appear,
but allow them their own journey
of death and rebirth.
Seek refuge not in love’s forms,
but in the field of love itself,
that which never comes and goes.
For this is what you are.

Today may not be the day where answers will come,
but to let your heart break open
to the vastness of the question.
Matt Licata
http://alovinghealingspace.blogspot.com/2018/02/its-okay-to-be-shaky.html

AFTERNOON...

Heartbreak asks us not to look for an alternative path,
because there is no alternative path.
It is a deeper introduction to what we love and have loved,
an inescapable and often beautiful question,
something or someone who has been with us all along,
asking us to be ready for the last letting go.
~David Whyte
Excerpt from:
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2018/02/21/26960/

Authenticity, and thus beauty,
includes brokenness and darkness and death.
In moments of darkness and uncertainty,
we encounter the depths of our desire that life go on.
And paradoxically, it opens us up to gratitude for this moment-
our chance to breathe the air,
feel our heart beating,
look into the eyes of another being.

In times like that,
what’s trivial or tawdry gets stripped away.
And the stark grandeur appears.
A grandeur that reaches down into the hearts.
It’s not surprising that in every spiritual tradition
there is somewhere near the center of that practice,
that recollection that ah,
yes,
death is at my side and
death can give me back this moment.

The awareness of death is full of astonishing freshness.
Pristine clarity.
It strips way the trivial.
And it is a choice open to the rest of us.
An awareness of death offers a profound richness.

"I" had to experience what it feels like to believe in the power of the devil….
in order to have Impersonal Understanding of such beliefs as a way of life.

As she (St. Teresa d'Avila) began the great works
of the last twenty years of her life,
she proclaimed of the devils,
"I pay no more attention to them than to flies ...
A fig for all the devils, because they shall fear me ...
Without doubt,
I fear those who have such great fear of the devil
more than I do the devil himself ...
'The devil! The devil!' we say,
when we could be saying
'God! God!'
and make the devil tremble."

Communion #2
Harmony Without and Within
TRANSFORMATION TAROT

Man is living as an island, and that’s from where all misery arises.
Down the centuries man has been trying to live independently from existence--
that is not possible in the very nature of things.
Man can neither be independent nor dependent.
Existence is a state of interdependence: everything depends on everything else.
There is no hierarchy, nobody is lower and nobody is higher.
Existence is a communion, an eternal love affair.

But the idea that man has to be higher, superior, special, creates trouble.
Man has to be nothing! – man has to dissolve into the totality of things.
And when we drop all the barriers, communion happens
and that communion is a benediction.
To be one with the whole is all.
That is the very core of religiousness.
*******************

Heraclitus says:
It would not be better if things happened to men just as they wish.
Unless you expect the unexpected you will never find the truth,
for it is hard to discover ad hard to attain.
Nature loves to hide.
The lord whose oracle is at Delphi
neither speaks nor conceals – but gives signs.

Existence has no language….and if you depend on language
there can be no communication with existence.
Existence is a mystery, you cannot interpret it.
If you interpret, you miss.

Existence can be lived, but not thought about.
It is more like poetry, less like philosophy.
It is a sign, it is a door.
It shows, but is says nothing.
Through mind, there is no approach to existence.

If you think about it,
you can go on thinking and thinking,
about and about,
but you will never reach it –
because it is precisely thinking that is the barrier.
Thinking is a private world, it belongs to you –
then you are enclosed, encapsulated,
imprisoned within yourself.

Nonthinking, you are no more;
you are enclosed no more.
You open,
you become porous,
existence flows into you and you flow into existence.

Urchin is a symbol for fertility. It is the virgin beauty, associated with flowers,
the organs of land.
Sea Urchins are the organs of the sea. It is symbolic for rare youth.
More here in depth:

AFTERNOON..........

Learn to listen –
listening means you are open, vulnerable, receptive,
but you are not in any way thinking.
Thinking is a positive action.
Listening is passivity; you become like a valley and receive;
you become like a womb and you receive.

If you can listen, then nature speaks –
but it is not a language.
Nature doesn’t use words.
Then what does nature use?

Says Heraclitus, it uses signs.
A flower is there: what is the sign in it?
It is not saying anything –
but can you really say it is not saying anything?
It is saying much, but it is not using any words –
a wordless message.

To hear the wordless you will have to become wordless,
because only the same can hear the same,
only the same can relate to the same.

Sitting by a flower don’t be a person, be a flower.
Sitting by the tree don’t be a person, be a tree.
Taking a bath in a river don’t be a man, be a river.

And then millions of signs are given to you.
And it is not a communication –
it is a communion.

Then nature speaks,
speaks in thousands of tongues,
but not in language.

THE SECOND BOOK OF TAO #15
Stephen Mitchell

The ancient Masters
slept without dreaming
and woke up without concerns.
Their food was spare and simple.
Their breath went deep.

They didn’t hold on to life,
and they faced death free of concepts,
emerging without desire,
going back without resistance.

They never forgot their beginning;
they didn’t trouble their minds
searching for what their end was.

AFTERNOON...

They received life as a gift
and handed it back gratefully.

Minds supple, faces serene,
in a crisis cool as autumn,
in relationships warm as spring,
they were balanced, throughout the four seasons,
and in harmony with the Tao.

There was no limit to their freedom.

Commentary by Stephen Mitchell

The ancient Masters had pared themselves down to the essential.
They woke up, they ate, they worked,
they made love,
they raised their families,
all the while unseduced by any thoughts that arose.
This gave their lives a sense of spaciousness.

They always had enough time
to do what wanted to be done.
They moved through each day as alert and unhurried
as animals in the wild.

They had returned to the primordial:
mind hovering over its own abyss,
objectless,
serene.
No wonder
their nights were dreamless
and their skies full of stars.

Gratitude makes no distinctions.
It precedes its occasion.
It is the magic well that never runs dry,
the still waters where you kneel
and see your own face,
more beautiful
than you could have imagined.

THE SECOND BOOK OF TAO #15
Stephen Mitchell

When the Creator, whoever or whatever He may be, created creation,
there were no temples, no mosques, no churches,
no synagogues, no telling of beads,
no prattle of priests, no chanting of hymns,
no offering of bribes at altars.
When rituals came into existence,
God gradually began to fade out of it

When nothing upsets you,
you are at the beginning of the path.
When you desire nothing,
you are halfway on the path;
when nothing becomes everything,
you are perfected.
Meer Baba

quoted by Jacqueline Lunger here:
https://www.psychicauthor.com/spiral-trail-blog/

I see us standing on
the no visibility side of a translucent curtain for a short time.
The curtain will dissolve soon
and when we step into the new space
it will be so magical, beautiful, joyous and loving,
that we will forget about the things that we co existed with
that didn't love and support us.
I see it will be like your favorite birthday party,
best vacation and biggest gift giving celebration ever.
All those descriptions are symbolic of course but you get the idea.

*(FIRST VERSION THAT WORDED

All quotes below in this color font from a most amazing article
that "Synchronistically" Found us this morning just after the above Whisper Worded
Article Link at end of these quotes.

There is, in sanest hours,
a consciousness,
a thought that rises,
independent,
lifted out from all else,
calm,
like the stars,
shining eternal.
Walt Whitman

It is crucial to understand that experience itself
is not merely an empirical process of appropriating
or digesting blocks of life.
Experience is rather a journey of transfiguration.
Both that which is lived and the one who lives it
are transfigured.
The above and remaining quotes below in this color font are from
John O'Donohue

Taking experience seriously must make it equally necessary
to take the destiny or future of experience seriously.
This is a particularly poignant necessity,
given that the future of each experience is its disappearance.
The destiny of every experience is transience.

Transience makes a ghost out of each experience.
There was never a dawn that did not drop down into noon,
never a noon which did not fade into evening,
and never an evening
that did not get buried
in the graveyard of the night.

Out of the fiber and density of each experience
transience makes a ghost.
The future, rich with possibility, becomes a vacant past.
Every thing, no matter how painful, beautiful or sonorous,
recedes into the silence of transience.
Transience too is the maker of the final silence,
the silence of death.

Is the silence which transience brings a vacant silence?
Does everything vanish into emptiness?
Like the patterns which birdflight makes in the air,
is there nothing left?
Where does the flame go when the candle is blown out?
Is there a place where the past can gather?
I believe there is.
That place is memory.
That which holds out against transience is memoria.

Memoria is always quietly at work,
gathering and interweaving experience.

Memoria is the place where our vanished lives secretly gather.
For nothing that happens to us
is ever finally lost or forgotten.

In a strange way,
everything that happens to us
remains somehow still alive within us.

Viewed against this perspective,
the concealed nature of memoria is easier to understand.
Memoria is the harvester and harvest of transfigured experience.

Deep in the silent layers of selfhood,
the coagulations of memoria are at work.

It is because of this subtle integration of self and life
that there is the possibility
of any continuity in experience.

AFTERNOON...

To set aside our fantasies of invulnerability, mastery, and power and lay ourselves at the feet of the mystery.
To see that life would never ask us to “master” it,
but to become, dance, and play as its humble servant.

And to then rest in unstructured, open being.
Explore, and then rest.
And then explore,
and then rest.
Sort of like an ocean or a star.

A time of self-enlightenment for all…William Rand's (Reiki.org) Holy Fire II Reiki is more about getting the practitioner out of the way of the healing process than any other healing modality of which I am aware… to quote him,
"...in Holy Fire Reiki, an important concept is that the more the practitioner stays out of the process, the more powerful it becomes..."

I agree and I feel as though we are beyond the time when anyone can "do it for us". I also believe in self-enlightenment, which means exactly what it says:
we can have a teacher, we can have a mentor, we can have a guide…
And we still have to do all the real work ourselves.

Now is the time when those of us
who are in a more enlightened & higher energy place
can only hold the space of love and intent
for those who are attempting to do their own work…
Creating the space and the empowerment
as well as holding the energy for them to be able to do what they need to do
for their own growth and enlightenment.

From Bill Martin:
June 15

The life our heart desires
is undisturbed by thoughts
of success or failure,
and simply takes its place
as part of All That Is.
From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 56

The two-sided coin called “success or failure”
has been minted by our collective mind
and put in circulation by our fears and desires.
It is “phony money”
that we now believe has actual worth.
It substitutes for the rewards we truly want:
doing the work that is ours to do;
seeing the world in simple splendor;
loving and being loved
without conditions;
and never doubting
that we belong.

A voice inside my head asserts that everyone wants to be successful;
that it is a natural human quality and leads
to advancement of the economy and improvement of the quality of life.
But we have so twisted the word that exactly the opposite results now ensue.

In the Tao, success is a community experience
that arises when people pursue simplicity, service, and compassion.
All enjoy success together, and all suffer hardship together.
When it becomes an individual pursuit the Tao is lost,
community is lost,
and happiness is lost.
To find our way back home
it will be essential that we each patiently redefine the term, “success,”
as we consider our own lives and the lives of others.

AFTERNOON..............

TAO TE CHING
#56
Those who know don't talk.
Those who talk don't know.

Close your mouth,
block off your senses,
blunt your sharpness,
untie your knots,
soften your glare,
settle your dust.
This is the primal identity.

Be like the Tao.
It can't be approached or withdrawn from,
benefited or harmed,
honored or brought into disgrace.
It gives itself up continually.
That is why it endures.

If you become the fragrance,
you will become the very source of creation.
Sadhguru
http://isha.sadhguru.org/blog/sadhguru/spot/pure-perception-no-judgement/

.....emotional pain is not pathology. Grief is not a condition to be diagnosed and treated. Feeling down and blue and a bit hopeless is not a disease which need be cured by consumption, whether that consumption is of material goods or new inner states.

A broken heart is pure and is complete on its own,
filled with intelligence, life, and seeds of creativity and expression.
It need not be mended or transformed into something else.
It is the vehicle by which the poetry of your life may flow
and your unique individuality may come alive here.

To stay embodied with waves of grief, confusion, rage, fear, despondency, exhaustion, hopelessness, and doubt …
to provide sanctuary and safe passage for the pieces of a broken world …
to dissolve once and for all the trance of self-abandonment …
this invitation is one that is radical and nonconventional by its nature,
appearing now for your consideration.

To infuse the entire spectrum with breath, with life, with awareness,
and with holding will liberate an eruption of skillful energy,
and help us to make meaning, to bear the unbearable,
and truly be there for others when they are suffering.
And to be warriors in the world
at those times we are needed most.
