Live the Mystery
Choices
Here you stand at the precipice of a brand new day filled with infinite possibility… how will you choose to use it? There are new dimensions of the Self to be explored, friendships to discover, wonders to see and old wounds ready to be healed.
Many remain in negative situations out of a fear of facing the unknown because the ego cleverly masks that decision as one born of duty or charity. Fear creates limitation, not only in regard to self-image but also in the possibilities we allow ourselves to recognize.
Practice making all of your decisions from a space of love rather than one of fear. When selecting a job, beginning or ending a relationship, spending time with family or anything else you can imagine, let love be your guide. Facing challenges then becomes a conscious act of devotion – you may strive to find the lesson or help another to heal. Integrity and passion provide a foundation for your actions and infuse greater strength into whatever you ultimately choose to do.
Illusion of Separateness
~Osho~
Many people use the Sanskrit term “Namaste” to greet one another. Roughly translated, it means, “I bow to you.” What would happen if we simply brought this kindness and respect to every person with whom we interact? We can create space for an authentic connection by choosing to honor the others soul rather than getting caught up in the role they currently play.
Your purpose is to awaken and every aspect of life assists you in this endeavor. Be a reflection of light and kindness. The journey is long and it’s wonderful to share joyful moments together along the way.
The Law of Contrast
One powerful aspect of expanding consciousness is the willingness to take complete responsibility for our own experience. As we awaken, we are more apt to see the beauty in the contrast, find the gifts within the challenge and view all life as sacred.
This journey is one of opposites. Through facing our darkness, we embrace our light. This process of learning will take us on many adventures. Sometimes you have to be who you aren’t in order to discover who you are…
Embrace this moment knowing that it will provide exactly what is required for your soul’s growth. Should you face periods of darkness, either personally or collectively, recognize the perfection that is inherent in the process of awakening and take one more conscious step forward.
The contrasts we encounter teach us that all things are possible. Everything contains positive, negative and neutral energy. Through these shifting polarities we learn how opposition plays its part in our collective awakening. The greatest challenges provide the greatest opportunity for growth.
Learning to Articulate the Language of the Soul
The Power of Forgiveness
It is safe for you to live beyond the expectations of others.
Holding Sacred Space
Holding sacred space is a gift that flows from awakened intention. From the frequency of love we allow another the opportunity to recognize their own divinity. What we can offer is unconditional acceptance because we see the limitless potential and know that if it isn’t discovered today, it certainly will be somewhere down the road.
When you intentionally offer your loving wishes, your prayers and blessings to another, you heart is transformed. You cannot walk in the light of love without being changed. Serving one another (even if only through the art of compassionate listening) is an expression of our sacred connection. It awakens us to Oneness and binds us with the gifts of loving-kindness.
Set an intention to stop and replenish your soul often throughout the day. Nurture yourself with compassion and you will have more to offer those who grace your life.
Acceptance
Acceptance, when engaged mindfully and authentically, is a powerful tool of transformation. Saying yes to life unlocks the prisons of perception and sets us free to experience life as it is without limiting mental interference.
The journey of awakening is unique for each of us. Imagine what we can learn from one another through the sharing of our varied experiences, insights and love without judgment. Honor each path as sacred. See everyone as your teacher and your life will be enriched beyond measure.
We are lifetime students of love. The contrasts and paradoxes of human experience teach us of the infinite ways that we can enter into the love that is the true nature of our being.
Self-Awareness
Reactivity indicates that something is ready to be healed. View moments of emotional intensity as distractions created by the mind and purposely choose to draw your attention inward. The process of reflection and awareness creates a space in which a transformation can occur.
Quieting the mind is a skill that grows stronger with practice. The mechanisms of the ego include complaining, blame, worry and regret. Growth calls upon us to do things differently; therefore, each time you can break through a repetitive thought pattern, recognize that you are becoming more aware.
The light of your consciousness transforms all that it shines upon. Each time we turn toward our own shadows we see a little more clearly. You may ask, “What is this?” as a way to broaden your perception. Your willingness to go inward indicates that you are ready to cross the threshold into new awareness. Take a breath and draw in unconditional love and the essence of pure potential. Feel every cell of your body awaken with new vitality and a joy of being. This is the moment of transformation.
