Passion Play The feeling of passions expressed Passion. Bring it! Allow it. Immerse into it. Surrender to it. Passion, in and of itself, is the flow of “Soul” energy out through your body. Transcending your ego. Your sense of self. To cultivate what you are authentically passionate about, is to expand the portal of your own Soul. So many people on this planet are … the walking dead. Not really engaged in their life at all. Surrendered to a very repetitive pattern in their life. Wake up. Go to work. Come home and crash. And then do it all again. Not even a glimpse of passionate expression in their everyday life. Karma taking its toll. It is only in uncertainty … that we are naked and alive. ~ Peter Gabriel. I recently started riding motorcycles again. After a 20-year pause. And I must say … it is re-awakening my inner…
All For You You are the thing itself When is it all over? When will the stars retreat back to where they came from? When will it all be done? We can put our salvation … out there. We haven’t met God again. We haven’t found Heaven. I mean, the car needs tires. The house isn’t paid for. And then there is the issue of the new aches and pains. How long are you going to wait? When WILL you get there? Where are you going to find the Holy Grail? When will you return to Heaven? After you let your body go? Right now. This now. This NOW. Now is the only time that you can ever experience Heaven. The Heaven that is IN You right now. You are what you are looking for. You are the thing itself. Don’t envy another. Don’t think that someone else has a…
Finding the Light Within Where the journey of the seeker … ends For myself, there was an episode where my own soul showed me the Light of Source. I had not expected it. Yet it would become a reference point for me to understand the Divine Light within each of us, and how we are to relate to our inner Light as human beings. It was then that I could actually experience what it was like to be only Light. It was in that moment, where I could not sense any “thing.” No time or space. No here or there. No me or you. No directions. No up or down. No symbols. No meaning. No objects of any kind. Nothing but Light. It was a very profound and all-encompassing event. And the journey there and back gave me a glimpse into the underpinnings of creation itself. Part of what motivates…
Unplugged Did you try unplugging it? Did you ever have something stop working? You tried giving it a good smack? Just when you thought it was a lost cause… … and then you unplugged it … and it started working again? Did you ever fret and worry about something in your life… wringing your hands over it, and it just wouldn’t go away? We are the creators of our experience(s). What we focus on … expands. Our emotions are waves of energy (inner chi) that are broadcast out into the universe. And the Law of Attraction kicks in and brings us more of the same. You cannot create abundance, love, joy, happiness, etc. while focusing on lack, fear, hate, etc. Try unplugging yourself. Try imagining that you are just observing the situation. That what you are witnessing is not yours. Your karma is not personal. Wait … what? The principles…
Riding the Waves Where are our emotions taking us? So how long does it take you to experience an emotional re-action? When you feel emotionally upset, how long does it take to go all the way through the emotional wave? There are all kinds of variations to that notion. If you spill the milk or you go through the heartache of losing a loved one, you tend to have emotional re-actions to all kinds of events in our lives. I know there is quite a difference between those two examples. But it is still something to consider. Emotions have energy behind them. The energy of those emotions comes from our own consciousness. When we emotionally re-act to our experiences, we create very similar re-sults. A karmic momentum of sorts. Our emotions are a reflection of ourselves. They can be thought of as messengers. Messengers that have information for us. Our…
I can’t get no satisfaction When our ego goes looking for satisfaction When we go looking for satisfaction, we can struggle to keep the feeling sustained. Oftentimes the ego puts the feeling of satisfaction on things or events. Getting married. Or a promotion at work. Or perhaps a new car. Oftentimes, we will postpone the feeling when we are trying to accomplish something. Perhaps graduating from college or winning an Emmy. I am not putting down the pursuit of accomplishments. But rather, on hanging our sense of self on anything outside of us. Everything in our life has a season. Every thing, be it a person, place or thing, is a season of experiences. In truth, the only thing that does not have a season is ourselves. Our own point of presence. Our own consciousness itself. You are an eternal well of consciousness. Your ego does not create the consciousness…
Get Your EGO On Board Who is driving your life? You didn’t have an ego when you were born. Yet, through the desires of their egos is how most people navigate life. Your ego can decide, by not letting go, how your life will go. If your ego dominates ALL of your consciousness… Well, it would be easier to get a freight train through the eye of a needle … than for you to discover who you really are. ;- ) And the universe goes on. Time will wait forever. Although the universe has so much love for you, the love of the universe has no conditions. Do you want to descend into hell? Sure thing. Do you want to (re)connect with the Source Consciousness within you now? Sure thing. You will choose everything that you do. Either consciously choosing it, or subconsciously choosing it. Your ego typically has a…
Wet Cleanup … Isle 5 Who made this mess anyway? The store paging system crackled yet another request for … wet cleanup … Isle 5. Someone had made a BIG mess. Time to clean it up. … Fresh out of the birthing process… as a newborn baby, just moments old… You open your virgin eyes… You take a look around… and suddenly realize… What the Hell? Who sent me HERE? It can seem as if life is hard. And certainly from the ego’s perspective it can feel that way. There are many humans on this planet who are struggling to find their way through life. But you? You remember. You remember that you are a timeless Soul. Having a human experience. A Soul that cannot die. A Soul that has an infinite field of potential to tap into. A field of “miracles” to the untrained mind. As an immortal Soul,…
Stuck in the Mud Nowhere to go From the Light … Into the darkness … How we take our selves offline. So then … imagine. Imagine a super-muddy mud puddle. And then crawling in and rolling around in the mud. Loading up your clothes with mud. And then laying in the sun and letting it all dry. Crusty muddy clothes. Now imagine getting bigger clothes and putting them on over your already muddy clothes. And going right back into the mud. Imagine doing this for many iterations. Where you have so many layers of clothes on, all loaded up with mud. And then lying in the sun until it all dries up and is rigid and stiff. There you are, lying on the ground, perhaps stuck. Stuck in the mud. Not having the strength to move. Not even a budge. This is a metaphor for karma. How many people on…
Flex Your Creative Muscles Capturing the inspirations of the moment Your body is the vehicle of your Soul. That is to say, your Soul has no physical attributes of its own, at least not until it incarnates into form. Your body is the vehicle of your Soul. Your body is running automatically. Your ego does not have to think about digesting your food, telling your heart to have another beat, or taking your next breath. Just like the breath you are taking right now. It is kind of like a self-driving car. But wait … too late … crash. Our self-living body has a driver too. Well, at least a driver’s seat. Our body can be driven by our Soul, or it can be “taken over” by our ego. Your body did not have an ego driving when you were born. Your Soul was driving your body on day one.…
Fun Is … What Fun Does What would your inner child want to do? Some spiritual teachers are the walking dead. IF they smiled … their faces would crack. All OM’y and serene. I get that. There IS an ocean of peace that has so much to offer us. But what the hell? Really? There are mechanics of ascension. Mental, Emotional, Spiritual and Physical modalities of healing. The process of healing itself. And then there is walking on the moon. Or breaking the sound barrier … by skydiving in only a space suit. Or … Come to me as a child … the God/Goddess whispered. Empty of motive or intent. Like children playing. No particular path to follow. Our inner child is a very important part of who we are. IF our inner child isn’t in the consciousness of our everyday living, well then, we might as well be in…
