Soul Windows - John O'Donohue, Ram Dass & D.H. Lawrence

When your soul awakens,
you begin to truly inherit your life.
You leave the kingdom of fake surfaces,
repetitive talk and many weary roles,
and slip deeper into the true adventure of
who you are,
and who you are called to become.

The greatest friend of the soul is the unknown...

Yet we are afraid of the unknown because
it lies outside our vision and our control.
We avoid it or quell it by filtering it
through protective barriers of
domestication and control.

The normal way never leads home...

John O'Donohue

The spiritual journey is individual, highly personal.
It can't be organized and regulated.

It isn't true that everyone should follow one path.
Listen to your own truth...

Ram Dass

However smart we may be,
however rich and clever or loving and charitable
or spiritual or impeccable,
it doesn't help us at all.
The real power comes to us from the beyond,
the unseen, the unknown.

D. H. Lawrence

AFTERNOON

Treading along in this dreamlike, illusory realm,
Without looking for the traces I may have left;
A cuckoo's song beckons me to return home,
Hearing this, I tilt my head to see
Who has told me to turn back;
But do not ask me where I am going,
As I travel in this limitless world,
Where every step I take is my home.

~ Dogen
from the Zen Poetry of Dogen
https://beautywelove.blogspot.com/2011/11/home.html

the wisdom of insecurity
You cannot understand life and its mysteries as long as you try to grasp it.
Indeed, you cannot grasp it just as you cannot walk off with a river in a bucket.

If you try to capture running water in a bucket,
it is clear that you do not understand
it and that you will always be disappointed,
for in the bucket the water does not run.

To "have" running water
you must let go of it and let it run.

-Alan Watts
https://beautywelove.blogspot.com/2009/10/from-wisdom-of-insecurity.html

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

This is the thought of identity — yours for you,
whoever you are, as mine for me.

Miracle of miracles, beyond statement,
most spiritual and vaguest of earth’s dreams,
yet hardest basic fact,
and only entrance to all facts.

In such devout hours,
in the midst of the significant wonders of heaven and earth,
(significant only because of the Me in the centre,)
creeds, conventions, fall away
and become of no account before this simple idea.

Under the luminousness of real vision,
it alone takes possession,
takes value.

Like the shadowy dwarf in the fable,
once liberated and look’d upon,
it expands over the whole earth,
and spreads to the roof of heaven.

~ Walt Whitman

unexpected silence
the troubled philosopher
finds nothing to believe in
and in unexpected silence
just smiles
at the still unanswered questions

TRUTH IS EVERYWHERE
JOHN MCINTOSH

Truth is everywhere.
Only the false self gives Truth a ‘location’, which is ever present.
The advent of mass communication
is a mirror for ONE-ness hidden in plain sight.

Despite being tainted
by the collective conditioning of humanity,
it makes available ‘the voice of silence’
in a non-intrusive manner
that the body-mind-identity
does not innately and instantly resist.

Each one’s unique world is precisely sculpted
from their own conditioning
reflecting who they are NOT,
while alluding to Who They Really Are.

The entertainment industry has for decades
dropped ‘hints’ about Truth
[whether it was aware of doing it or not].
“The Force be with you”
is perhaps one of the most recognized quotes
of the last century.
Fairy tales abound with metaphors
about the dream the world is
and action-comics
[which now dominate theater blockbusters]
foster the concept of the God within.

The nudge of Truth
comes through any available
‘chink in the armor’ of resistance to tug-at-the-sleeve
of the deep sleeping God-SELF
and stimulates the natural Divine Discontent
inbred into every walking god
who still slumbers in the grand dream.

Suffering is the primary means
of bringing the stubborn sleeper
to the alter of Truth
but ‘hints’ are everywhere and incessant....

...as the ONE Awareness
shakes IT SELF like a rag-doll
until Freedom receives
the focused Attention
that will clear
the ancient clouds of conditioning
that have
hidden Truth from IT SELF.

The Daily Lesson – June 16, 2019
Why should we need to use power if there is only one power — God?
What would we want to use it for, on whom, or on what?
And why do we need any power to correct a belief in two powers?
When, through practice, we have trained ourselves
so that we no longer use the power of mind
or try to use the power of Spirit,
we are in spiritual consciousness
and we have the secret of spiritual power.
~Joel S Goldsmith
A PARENTHESIS IN ETERNITY

Mark 10:17,18 (KJV)
17 And when he was gone forth into the way,
there came one running, and kneeled to him,
and asked him,
Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?
18 And Jesus said unto him,
Why callest thou me good?
there is none good but one,
that is, God.

Luke 12:27 (KJV)
27 Consider the lilies how they grow:
they toil not, they spin not;
and yet I say unto you,
that Solomon in all his glory
was not arrayed like one of these.

Psalm 62:1 (KJV)
62 Truly my soul waiteth upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.

God is Absolute,
Unconditional and Infinitely Omnipresent.
All we need to develop is an Awareness of that Fact.
And all that is left is a smile…
~Al Denninger

Love and death are the great gifts that are given to us;
mostly they are passed on unopened.
~Rainer Maria Rilke

there is this moment when you cannot turn away
inquiry for today~ look back on this day as a true beginning....

https://makebelieveboutique.com/2019/06/16/29796/

You cannot rise in love,
you cannot fly in love,
you cannot stand in love –
you have to fall in love. ...

... If you want to know the magic of emotion,
something of you has to fall.

The Guest House

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.
Be grateful for whatever comes.
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
— Jellaludin Rumi,
translation by Coleman Barks

Later, a sudden larger breaker almost washed camera/tripod away...we took camera off to take this photo above...and the moment we finished that photo, GASP...for the HUGE Heron (below photos) that we barely could photograph...probably the same Heron from a few days ago at this same Remembrance Rock

I am not from the East or West
not up from the ground
or out of the ocean.
My place is placeless
a trace of the Traceless.
I am from the Soul of souls.

Rumi

below from
John O'Donohue

We are no sooner out of the womb than we must begin the
precarious unfolding and shaping of who we are.
If we have bad or destructive times in childhood,
we begin to fix on a survival identity to cover over
and to compensate for what happens to us.
If we are never encouraged to be
ourselves we begin to construct an identity
that will gain us either attention or approval.
When we set out to construct
our lives according to a fixed image,
we damage ourselves.
The image becomes the desperate focus
of all our longing.
There are no frames for the soul.

In truth we are called,
in so far as we can,
to live without
an image of ourselves,
or at least to keep
images we have free and open.

When you sense the immensity
of the Unknown within you,
any image you have built of yourself
gradually loses its promise.
Your name, your face, your address
only suggest the threshold of your identity.

Somehow you are always secretly aware of this.
Sometimes you find yourself listening to someone
telling you what you should do
or describing what is going on inside you,
and you whisper to yourself that
they have not the foggiest idea who you actually are.

John O'Donohue
From Eternal Echoes

There Are No Frames for the Soul

NOT AS YOU SEEM
JOHN MCINTOSH

You are NOT as you seem.
The world you try to navigate through each day
is NOT as it seems.

Nothing ‘is’ as it seems on the surface …
this is relatively easy to accept,
and the body-mind-false-self will immediately
offer opinions about
conspiracies, hidden agendas
and elite forces controlling the world to support this.
But this goes much deeper than mere theories
about the real world hidden in plain sight.

No matter how close you may get to what seems to be ‘going on’,
on the planet and in your life,
it will always be about the ‘state of a dream’.

Your body, your mind, your world
and your experiences in it are all a dream,
totally believed in by most of humanity
and that belief gives it its shape and design and life.

There is absolutely nothing ‘real’ within it
no matter how beautiful or disgusting it may seem.
Every concept of Love, of Life, of Freedom, of Beauty
pales beside one glimpse of Reality.

To access Truth, the Truth that you ‘are’ is simple … turn within.
By turning your Attention inward
and simply ‘opening up’ to the possibility
of something vaster
than anything the imagination [also a dream] can conjure …

6/10/15

Light begins to shine and direct your Attention
toward what ‘is’ Real.
This opening up is actually the beginning
of Real ‘surrender’ to the Infinite.
When the mind then tries to fill in the blanks,
gently return inward to open-ness …

Life will do the heavy lifting and your Awareness
[the Awareness that you ‘are’]
of
Truth will begin to Expand effortlessly.
