just be happy anyway
Sometimes when we connect to a person, a situation, a doing, or a moment it seems as if we are drawn through a wormhole and for moments it seems as if we are perhaps somewhere else. It can even be that we realize that we have not transversed anywhere at all and are even at the same point than the beginning of our journey but which now somehow has changed in perspective. Either way, we may ask ourselves what is happening here and do I really need to know? It's as if we are here and there and everywhere all at the same time. We exist now and then and at the same moment all at once as if we go through a singe point which opens up the broader picture. Perhaps life is like a board game in which multiple paths, locations and many possibilities for expression, creation and experience are presented. There are many points of entrance to the creative stage and depending which entrance we choose we might be curious thinking, "is there a light as well and what else will unfold?" Sometimes what we see is heart-breaking and beautiful and we then allow ourselves to slide through the many twisting wormholes knowing at the end that nothing has been transversed at all and all becomes still like the lake tamed by the hot Summers sun. Boundaries between time and space evaporate through seemingly different life times as historical moments overlap in a kind of double and triple exposure that insists that no matter what happens we are all still all ONE and we all are indeed part of what happens in the universe. The universe, a galaxy of places and creatures and their lives are all interwoven through the chain of reactions and consequences which are etched into awareness itself. This life and we all together will shape what is to come as we cannot go back and re-do our choices now. Sometimes it can be wise to just sit back and watch what happens and perhaps reflect how we contribute to the totally of existence with our own choices. Sometimes sitting back and observe is really all what is left to do. Then, just be ---- happy ---- anyway. :-)
little song
Some bright morning when this life is over
I'll fly away
To that home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh glory
I'll fly away (in the morning)
When I die hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away
When the shadows of this life have gone
I'll fly away
Like a bird from these prison walls I'll fly
I'll fly away
Oh how glad and happy when we meet
I'll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
I'll fly away
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joys will never end
I'll fly away
Well, now stay on in the moment and smile about the good ol' days....
I'll fly away

I'll fly away
Like a bird from these prison walls I'll fly

Oh how glad and happy when we meet
I'll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
I'll fly away
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joys will never end
I'll fly away
Well, now stay on in the moment and smile about the good ol' days....

In Trust we are NOT 2
abandon anybody is not in favor of universal union
when judging right versus wrong or the state of all things
one can consider so many options and choices
but...
gaining peoples trust maybe even harder
than gaining liberation or enlightenment
however...
what is even harder than gaining people's trust
is having to abandon anybody
or choosing even one person over another
what is it then what we can do for people?
could it be to help them to grow deep trust?
one must neither easily give up
nor abandon ... anybody
NOT a THING and not ANYBODY
that realizing this is also a "let go..."
it is not a holding on but a "letting be"
this really is trust.... and this is love.
Peace!

In Love With The Ever NEW!
Heart Sutra, it says apparently, "I am willing to go to hell for you. No matter who you are or what bad things you've done."
The Ever NEW
every spiritual intention
traverses through infinity...
and is seen as pure light
rising high above the stars...
each truth is slowly revealed
like a seed of devotion and love
which is planted in the dark...
it vibrates into this world
draws down the Ever Beautiful
the Ever NEW grows in and through
from the heart center
my LOVE

Posted with love
how can what Is be ever comprehended?
how can we put in words what really is?
we flow on and on leaving the past behind?
the place without flaws is found in what IS
free from desire
free from all pain
free from attraction and repulsion
we are sheltered in this diamond heart
tell me what is there to expect?
ONE is all there is
noble actions, thoughts and truth
one day will pave the way
to create a world of love and peace
one day we will we not start to truly see
how love and devotion flows freely
then the universe creates a place
of upliftment and evolution for all
real love fills a heart with warmth
and in this lies no attachment
In the EVER NEW DAWN
we will bring forth THAT
which is termed
TRUE LOVE...
You know that is is to become true!
Peace!
Just let's love NOW.... will you?
loving you!

Envisioning a Post-Peak World
Quote,"In response to the coming impact of peak oil, John Michael Greer helps us envision the transition from an industrial society to a sustainable ecotechnic world - not returning to the past, but creating a society that supports relatively advanced technology on a sustainable resource base."
The Ecotechnic Future: Envisioning a Post-Peak World by J.M. Greer

The Druids Reports
His, the Archdruids blog, is one of my favorites. This week he talks about that we have to create a society which lives through humble means. He also talks about the economics of Gandhi and E.F. Schumacher. See for yourself:
Druid
Schumacher wrote a book called "Small is Beautiful."
Link to the book "Small is Beautiful"
Quotes from the book"Small is Beautiful:"
"[A modern economist] is used to measuring the 'standard of living' by the amount of annual consumption, assuming all the time that a man who consumes more is 'better off' that a man who consumes less. A Buddhist economist would consider this approach excessively irrational: since consumption is merely a means to human well-being, the aim should be to obtain the maximum of well-being with the minimum of consumption... The less toil there is, the more time and strength is left for artistic creativity. Modern economics, on the other hand, considers consumption to be the sole end and purpose of all economic activity."
---
"It is clear, therefore, that Buddhist economics must be very different from the economics of modern materialism, since the Buddhist sees the essence of civilization not in a multiplication of wants but in the purification of human character. Character, at the same time, is formed primarily by a man's work. And work, properly conducted in conditions of human dignity and freedom, blesses those who do it and equally their products."
Peace!

Listen With Your Heart
The diamond of light is everywhere. Light is the healer. Light within and without, the sun, the moon th stars, our life force... is light and beyond that light is the silence of peace beyond the premordial sound of OM.... The space which we cannot talk about is here. We cannot say it's this or that, or even love, and yet we know it is THERE (which is right HERE), all suffering stops and never even existed in the first place. In the meantime we may love, and we know we are immortal with the love we share in the present moment in whatever form it wants to take, and which can never ever NOT BE HERE WITH US right NOW.... As such we are never alone, we are never helpless. We are powerful beings of love and devotion, and we are HERE to become aware to share what is given. We receive, we open, we close, we offer, we continue we give just like breathing... just as we breathe, the universe breathes us and our life.
How can we not always be in LOVE? Be a companion of the Divine - which is you and all of us.
Remember today how light even heals in medicine: think about infra-red light, laser light, sun light, rainbow colored lights, candle light, heart light. etc...
Shanti!
