God made all things.
There is only God.
When you know this Desire melts away.
Clinging to nothing,
You become still. . . .

Yes we are the All that we haven't been able to imagine.
We are limitless.
In exchanging emails with a dear long time friend we realize
how alike our attention grabbing experiences are.
Once that knowing anchors into Being
others begin sharing their current realities
with shared growth and discovery illumined
We are experiencing a New Moon in Leo and Mercury
in forward motion today.
Nurture yourself...
An open heart energizes the Soul of All

when the doors of the heart are closed.
Commentary by Hazrat Inayat Khan:
There is a door to man's heart; it is either closed or open.
When he holds a thing and says, 'This is mine,'
he closes the door to his heart;
but when he shares his goods with others and says,
'This is yours as well as mine,'
this opens his heart.
We must learn consideration for others;
it does not matter whether they are rich or poor.
We may have only one slice of bread, but when there is another
sitting by our side we share that slice with him.
By doing this, even if our bodily appetite remains unsatisfied,
our heart is filled with joy to think that we shared our happiness with another.
It is this spirit which is necessary just now
to change the condition of the world,
not political and commercial disputes.
We must be awakened to the main truth,
that the happiness and peace of each can only be the happiness and peace of all.
from https://wahiduddin.net/mv2/XII/XII_I_10.htm
that is where they are mistaken.
Spirituality is attained through the heart.
What do I mean by the heart?
Is it the nervous center in the midst of the breast,
the small piece of flesh that doctors call the heart?
No, the definition of the heart is that it is the depth of the mind,
the mind being the surface of the heart.
That in us which feels is the heart, that which thinks is the mind.
It is the same thing which thinks and feels,
but the direction is different:
feeling comes from the depth, thought from the surface. ...
The Sufis have therefore considered
the development of the heart quality
as a spiritual culture,
and have called it the culture of the heart.
It consists of the tuning of the heart.
Tuning the heart means changing the vibrations,
bringing them to a certain pitch which is the natural one
where you feel the joy and ecstasy of life,
which enables you to give pleasure to others
even by your presence
because you are tuned.
When an instrument is properly tuned
you need not play music on it;
just by striking it you will feel a great magnetism coming from it.
If an instrument well-tuned can have that magnetism,
how much greater should be
the magnetism of hearts that are tuned.
Rumi says,
'Whether you have loved a human being or whether you have loved God,
if you have loved enough you will be brought in the end
into the presence of the supreme Love itself'.

~~~ The soul feels suffocated
when the doors of the heart are closed.

AFTERNOON
BAUBO AS WU WEI

The Tao Te Ching, written in China around 600 BC,
first articulated the idea of wu wei.
“Do that which consists in taking no action and order will prevail,”
the book explains.
The idea is that we should stop trying to force action
and get comfortable doing less.
Then, when we do move, our actions are natural, energetic,
and accomplish the desired results.

How To Simplify & Declutter Your Life –Sadhguru 4:28 min.

The greatest delight which the fields and woods minister,
is the suggestion of an occult relation between man and the vegetable.
I am not alone and unacknowledged.
They nod to me, and I to them.
The waving of the boughs in the storm, is new to me and old.
It takes me by surprise, and yet is not unknown.
Its effect is like that of a higher thought or a better emotion
coming over me,
when I deemed I was thinking justly or doing right.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
