We must stop
taking each encounter and thought personally. It no longer is about the
personality or content of the mind. If you remember that thoughts are merely
conditioning that we have identified with, then it is easier to see that
whatever arises in consciousness, whether it looks to be outside in the world,
or appears in our inner landscape, is to be considered a clue as to what is the
next step in our collective healing. Approaching all content of the dream as
markers that point to the unfolding of awakening, we see the direction we must
go and the actions we must take. But it never is directing us towards further
separation. The idea we should shield ourselves in any way, is entrenched in
duality. In Oneness there can be no enemy.
That doesn’t
mean we are required to play a part in the dream that would override our sense
of integrity. Some behaviors and scenarios are dead ends and lead to further
fragmentation. Since the goal of any organism is wholeness and coherence, we
continue in that direction and avoid any enticement that would distract emotionally
and pull us into drama. The “I” thought that differentiates, with its “own”
values, perceptions, beliefs, etc. is the program, not the truth. We are Consciousness,
aware of ITSELF, evolving through this dimensional dream world, and discovering
its nature. It is always attempting to divulge its true nature, to look more
closely and pierce the veil. It attempts this through us as its agents. So the
invitation is to relinquish individuality, not to another belief system as
presented by another teacher, but to LIFE ITSELF as it moves through us,
breathing the new paradigm into existence.
There are
always opportunities, more so now than ever, to surrender our personas of
protection and become transparent and vulnerable to LIFE in its constant
expression. Love is its language and would speak through action, not words. I
do not mean action necessarily in the form of doing, but is more about the
nature of Being. The intellect cannot reason out the manner in which the flow
will appear, as each moment makes itself known completely fresh, neither encumbered
by the past nor expectant of a future. It knows intuitively its directionality
through time-space. It is like water, tumbling from stream to river as it seeks
finally joining its mother, the ocean. It is inevitable. It is HOME.
When we
enter this flow, surrendering control and entering the stream of alive
Consciousness, we become instruments of harmony, joining the frequential and
vibratory undoing of anything unlike the essential truth of Being, of Life
ITSELF. We are the change agents as soon as we walk into a room. When you feel
tension arising, know you have ushered in an invitation to freedom. There is
nothing need be said, but Life’s presence through you will begin the adjustment
necessary. It has nothing to do with you, so stay out of it. Be still. Allow.
Love. That’s all.
Opinions and
viewpoints are transitory and are constantly changing as we are upgraded in our
understanding. Do not be a disseminator of viewpoints, please. Relinquish all
viewpoints and join the infinity of Life’s awareness, which, of course,
includes EVERYTHING in existence, including that which you cannot yet perceive.
That means you cannot take a stand, anywhere. It is like an endless free fall,
where you become accustomed to the inability to orient yourself to any
reference point, where you finally stop trying to grab onto something to stop
the sense of certain death. In fact, you stop trying to avoid anything, but
instead become curious as to what it is you’ve been afraid of. It’s time to
come to grips and get to know your inner terrorist, to face it head on and see
what happens. When you’re ready, the universe will align with your intent, and your
situation will morph to provide the perfect opening for you to transcend your
self-imposed limitations.
True freedom
is awakening from the illusion of everything you thought was true and
encountering Truth directly, alive and always brand new as it moves through
time-space moment by moment. It is the death of your fictional identity and the
relinquishing of all desire to recreate a new one. It is not just getting off
the carousel; it is leaving the amusement park altogether. What happens after
that is anyone’s guess.
Love to All, Suzen
It's Not Personal
ReplyDeleteWhen we see how our own mind is functioning, not how I say it is functioning or what you may read about the mind in books, but seeing clearly yourself how it really works, we then may see that it is just a programed operation system. A program based on self-referencing all and everything the mind encounters back to a concept of a personal self, a personal ME or a personal YOU, thus we take it all personally. When this constant self-referencing ceases the freed energy that is then released can override the program long enough to awaken. This is our birthright born as human beings in this lifetime on this planet. In this new seeing it is no longer about the personality or content of the mind. If we remember that all the thoughts are merely a conditioned program that arises in a space called consciousness, then it is easier to see that whatever arises in consciousness, whether it looks to be outside in the world, or appears in our inner world all come and go and as such are not who we really are. Approaching all content of the dream as markers that point to the unfolding of awakening, we see the direction we must go and the actions we must take. But it never is directing us towards further separation. The idea we should shield ourselves in any way, is entrenched in duality. In Oneness or even better in Not Two, there can be no other. Remember…True love has no opposites.
