Reconnect with spontaneity

Notice the nature of soul-level spontaneity versus mind-driven motivation.  Which do you favor or ignore?  One way to deepen spiritual practice is to sense a journey to expand and serve others emerges from the innermost core. 

Take the example some people are inspired by altruism, that is the desire to serve.  Others are motivated to act based on fear or something in-between.  The world transforms through our changes in attitude, perception and behaviour.  Whether you choose to awaken to the nature of the essence of being and extent of energy flowing through you, is up to you.

Being a biologist at heart, the word altruism is very dear to me. I was always in awe when I learned about the altruistic behaviors of some birds. It was like sensing a deeper meaning of how life unravels.

So today, service towards others is a part that is very natural and dear to me as well. I think tapping into nature, and the nature of our existence can awaken that greatly indeed.

I feel everything we do is in service to others, or to ourselves, everything :) in some way or another. I do feel this is in our inner most core.

I needed to look altruism up, to see the difference betwen this and fear driven or mind driven and to connect it to spontaneity.

Spontaneity feels like it is our first response, without mind, without thought, altruism then would be service without mind or thought, and I picture all the stories of mothers dashing out into the road to save children from cars, or drivers swerving to avoid critters on the road :) like instinstively doing so, spontaneitly doing so, and when asked after what went through the mind before doing something as this, knowing it was maybe just for the survival of the other.

Service to others is a very fine way to live and love, indeed!

I ask mysellf, "What are 10 little things I can do for others today?" Even if they are little things, they all add up to Cosmic Synchronicity.

Wonderful reminder.

Evita, many people forget much of their behaviour is nurtured rather than connected to nature. All conditioning influences the development of values, principles and judgments. It is the process of awakening that enables the essence of being to guide rather than the mind. Core nature is not nutured. It simply exists, is allowed or resisted.

tumel, to feel connected to everything and everywhere is a huge revelation for many people. This vision of one being transcends the mind and its judgment. Even 'right or wrong' no longer make sense. Everything unfolds without effort. One recognizes love and compassion speak through all choices. State of being is felt as incredibly happy.

Jannie, being conscious of how you serve and enrich the lives of others also enriches the essence of your energy being. It is a mutually-beneficial gesture. The results are not comprehended by mind.

Spontaneity is indeed in-between self ego gratification and selfless altruistic behavior. Spontaneous Nature has no motive nor identity to align with. Here not lies, but where truth exists in authentic connection without having preference to do anything in any given moment. The moment however presents engagement to the infinite which spawns new moments without any urge to help. The need to hel-p implies that one is affiliated with victimhood or is in a hel-lish state of mind or dimension. One helps another in hope that they too escape the confines created by the mind.

In spontaneity, the world is realized and is perfect as Is and automatically brings hope and goodwill to those who have to do things in certain ways under strict... or even loose protocols.... which forces them to then change. Anyone who does something in a new way without thinking changes the playing field for all with wide ranging effects. Those who are spontaneous are not hopeful, however, but fulfill hope to those who think they require help.

Bern, is engaging with the infinite always the same as being the infinite?
What is indicated by noticing true nature? What about the fallacy of altruism?:

"The Power of Attraction" therefore brings upon spontaneous moments where each moment gets our full attention.

The infinite is like the perfect wave while engaging the infinite is like a surfer catching that perfect wave. A true union then returns the surfer back into wave form..... the True or Higher Self. There is no more surfer and the engagement is over.... because duality has been transcended.

Life as the mind knows it, needs duality. Everywhere you find it, till the ultimate arrives. Call this God, Source, the absolute, nothing. It transcends duality. Here, life as 'you' know it, disappears. 'You' are invisible. 'You' have no form, no name, no quality. At this stage, 'you' do not exist. You transcend the Self.. Such is nirvana. This is now much like everything is now. Every branch of Source is like a droplet in the cosmic ocean.
