only I
The entirety of our thoughts, beliefs and assumptions is our world. Life and its problems are easily summed up thusly. Our experience of Life is via our thoughts, the mind that we’ve constructed which is the same as ‘I’, the ego. And it’s the Ego, who we think is us, that appears to hurt us. Nothing but our own thoughts is the culprit.
just flow
We really think we know what’s good for us and that we must figure it all out in life. Not true. The road to wisdom is the path of ‘the beginner’s mind‘, or unknowingness. Attempting to hold on to what we think will keep us safe is foolhardy. The divine parent is truly watching out for us, and she can only help us if we give up our know-it-all attitude when it comes to everything in life.
what is, now
Now, truly now, is a place, actually an experience, that’s indescribable. It’s where we, as pure awareness, are simply experiencing what is. We’re not naming what is, or creating word descriptions of it in our minds. We’re just ‘knowing’, and eventually ‘being’ what is.
transformation
We run away from our deepest and darkest secrets. How, you might ask? By somehow pushing them into our subconscious mind. And we’re unable to truly transform and change unless we face these very demons. And how you might ask is that done? At least in a couple of the following ways.
1) When we meditate regularly all these ‘dark’ thoughts and traumas make their way up into our waking consciousness. We can then ‘process’ them by simply becoming aware of them and letting them be.
2) Another way they surface is in our relationships with others. If we watch carefully others will appear to mirror to us all that we don’t care to face. If we do notice that happening then we may simply ‘watch’ such occurrences or ‘forgive‘ the others for what they appear to do to us.
oneness
God encompasses it all in his beingness. And we share this same beingness. When we just are, just being, that’s God-likeness. It’s an experience, that can only be experienced and cannot be verbalized or conceptualized. This experience is that of oneness. God is, period.
here, now
all is well
In this very moment, unless we actively think about a ‘problem’, there is no problem. All is truly well. So, just Be. And. Smile. Now, experience being happy, revel in that.
