beautiful soul
i move with something that speaks in my heart
to say
that you have not been what is real
you have not let your mind settle down into something
other than the familiar
for if you did you would be done with this worldly way
in which calls to the mind to continue dancing in the mayaic realm
of otherness
it calls as a master calls to it's student to be this way and that and not
come fully to the waters of light
i am not saying this to be judgmental, but in the way of the world
there is mostly an entertaining of this kind of thing
not a seriousness about being as the ancient masters are which
is dynamic, like a fire-force that has nothing but love at it's base
and nothing but stillness in which it lives
nothing but mystery of the absolute in every breath, cell, word
and consciousness
with this fire force of heart, these ones walk upright without
needing support or influences or education from anything to
improve it or help it along...
for the end that is the beginning of pure life cannot be improved
upon by anything created by mind, hand, tongue, word, deed
it is as it is from beginningless time
beautiful, full, without covers and within all hearts equally
you see, we are made as this beauty in truth
and even if we feel not like this inside now or weak
see, this is where there is a doorway to open into
to go through
we go through our shaky places, our voices that call us back
our revolving painful aches ... all of it, the shakiest, weakest
point is indeed an entrance into something different
look at it soul!
what keeps coming back to you is the doorway to see that these
thought/concepts are like shadows that come and go
it is only your mind that continues to produce it to come into reality
and make it real
oh soul, yes ... this is what is to be seen
that those tender spots that sting so and make one draw back are the
moments that are given to see through the mind
well i am taking time to write this out, oh one of heart
it is not like i planned it at all this way, these words
it is not like i said that i will write something that is to make one
be present
it is not like i went over this in my head or hoped that there is a result
it is not like i prayed about it or practiced it or worked on a lecture about it
it is not like i find anything to be lower or higher and something needs help
and something does not
it is not like i love as a personal thing when writing it
and even if it flows as a thing that feels someone is writing it
it is not true for it comes the way it comes
i really am not involved with it
love,
today there is something more flowing
like a river without any stopping places
like a wind without any catches to it
or a doorway that stays open to love
oh soul
this is the way it is
there are phases that come and stay and revolve
and deepen and surface and deepen again
and then one day another depth that lingers
longer and longer
and feels heartier with strength, quietude and more
effortless than ever
oh friend today it is felt this way
and i know this writing feels as if someone is excited
about it
but it is not that way
it is not like a running around kind of thing and wanting
to sing on the roof tops about it
it is a settled being in the moment with one pointed concentration
and not having to be constantly internally saying mantra or
concentrating on balanced breath when mind is in action
simply a few breaths and the flow is back
sturdier, more substantial
oh what work it seems friends to go on and on with great efforts
and what a joke it is to be simply peaceful without those hard personal efforts
(as if that suffering person never existed at all)
it is as if it has always been quiet
yet there is still a cognition that there has been such a long journey walked
well this is this day
and it is not done
and the journey continues until it is complete
but i feel grateful to rest a little more this morning in the flow of
heart and quietude
blessed day to all!
Namaste, thank you for sharing these writings that flow. OM.
