Know the love you seek is here

Whatever the love you think it is you want, it is always closer than you think.  Notice where you search for it and why you continue to tell yourself that it seems to be beyond your reach.  What happens when you come to discover new ways exist to explore love and a new paradigm? 

You may be convinced you need to be somewhere else with someone else in different conditions to know love.  Notice what happens as you stop thinking as you are conditioned to think.  Be willing to discover the love you seek is here and recognize how everything points to it.

Even as you begin to sense everything is expressing love to you, you do not always love and accept everything as it is.  Notice what you feel about each part of the physical body.  Notice whether you secretly wish you looked different or that some illness or obstacle you believe exists was gone.  Notice what happens as you begin to see deeper into the choices before you.   Hear messages in all situations. Everything is a gift, a divine message.  What you see, shifts. 

Watch as you grow aware of the nature of your beliefs.  Come to better know yourself, and you cannot help but see through the illusion of fear.  What is it that this quality in your life is prompting you to do? How would someone who is fearless respond to situations in your life? To be fearless is to bravely walk through fear.  That which challenges you, expands you.

Reality is loving you by showing you to yourself.  Nothing in your reality is a mistake. Reality is a message from your spirit.  You are creating reality to guide you back to what the heart knows.

Accept heartfelt wisdom

Sense the magic of a given piece of music arises in the silence between the notes.This holds all forms together.  Its the soulful energy that flows through all things. 

The heart is invited make connections between innate soul wisdom and thoughts flowing in the mind.  Pure love offers a frequency that reveals the true heart is open.  If you wish to live an abundant, joyful and loving life, simply feel the way into these frequencies. Everything is vibration, is a field of energy. a kind of consciousness. 

The soul is the intelligence behind all that is visible.  Feel the way of the universal soul as you recognize your soul is a perfect copy of divine being.  Teach yourself to read between the gaps of words and lines.  Heartfelt wisdom reveals itself with clarity.

Recognize that the body, personality and soul are all sending you messages.  What do you choose to listen to and truly hear? The soul knows the way, the personality shapes the course and the body manifests the ways and choices made.  Read the signs.

Have a happy mind

Many experiences are universal yet, must be discovered and rediscovered by each of us at our own pace.  We allow wisdom to reveal itself through us when we are ready and willing to accept it.  We each weave our own tapestry of life by making choices. How to maintain a happy mind?

1) Break free of the traps of the mind: Let go of the past, stop focusing attention on fear and the future. This releases you from ties binding you to karma/ family histories (recover the 'original self'). As identities are seen as the masks they are and shed, personal histories shrink and fade.

2) Be aware of and let go of attachment to inner possessions; judgments, thoughts, values, and ideas about right and wrong.  Notice everyone is a teacher pointing to existing contentment.

3) Break free of the traps of the body/ impermanent world. Thinking about doing anything is the hard part. Notice how the mind stalls and postpones things. Taking action itself is easy.

4) Explore the true nature of freedom & what it means to be 'liberated in life.' Notice you deny the ultimate freedom. You only step beyond parameters after you create them and grow aware.

5) Bring together the elements of a fragmented existence.  Each person who is open and receptive grows aware of an inner pilgrimmage and unique experiences with Spirit.

6) Be here in this present moment in mindfulness and kindness. 

"Renounce the self that does the renunciation." -Swami Venkatesananda

Notice being here

Notice how it feels to be fully present.  Notice to what (if anything) you give your full and complete attention at this stage of your life.  How does it feel? What is the core message?

Consider how you are conditioned to multitask, to only partly listen or partially hear what is being spoken to you, only partly notice signs from your own body, mind and spirit.  Which lessons emerge from not fully listening? from not being conscious in a given situation?  Notice every experience serves you and self-concern until awareness shifts. Feel what resonates now.

"Few people can say:I am here.  They look for themselves in the past or see themselves in the future." -Georges Braque

Peace is here

How the mind and body feel do not reflect the untouchable awareness you are.  You decide what thoughts mean or if thoughts are meaningless.  Nothing needs to change for you to be at peace.  This state of being is here, now. A quiet mind exists already. The silent observer is present within. Is your attention here or on the restless mind?

Notice what happens as you shift away from the judgments, away from the search for whatever represents freedom for you in the external world.  Notice what happens as you realize you are not the body, not the mind, but that which observes and is aware of it all. In letting go of all you think is you, the silence and truth of reality reveals itself.  Love unconditionally.  Behave as if you are convinced all is well and acceptance is.

"Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without." - Buddha
