Be aware of encoded communication

Life experience is activating something within you.  This is drawing attention to core state of being.  Activation is transmitted through the written word, through books, the Internet and other media.  Energy itself is passing to and through you in the here and now.  Energy passes by way of the tone of voices you hear, by the word choices that stand out to you.  Energy passes through the physical bodies of humans and other creatures you encounter on this path.  Much is conveyed on subtle levels and waves.

Recognize that human senses are interconnected.  They draw the same energy like channels on a radio dial.  Light and sound are both vibrations yet at very different frequencies.  Beyond the five familiar senses where the mind grounds itself, energy flows seemlessly outside time and space. Whatever the mechanism, everything you think and feel and say is connected to people you pass by or with whom you never interact directly.

For instance, as you walk by strangers on the street, your energy flows into them.  Someone could experience an instantaneous revelation or healing right there.  You can think about someone and send thoughts (telepathy) and energy can also be received.  As awareness expands, you feel more comfortable functionning in less controlled surroundings.  Distant healing is another way energy is sent and received.  Your essence is in fact an energy transmitter.  Do what feels right.  Everything goes well.

Allow all feelings to dance

As a living being, you are rediscovering what is natural.  Part of your nature is to discover all emotions and allow them to flow.  It is fine to express how you feel in the moment.  

Watch children in their candidness and spontaneity. They do not judge or second guess themselves. They are like a free flowing river unless someone reprimands them. If this happens, its like the river comes up against rocks or rapids.  Where do you buck the current?

Ponder how it serves you to dwell on anger, doubt, fear or other heavy energy. What happens as you allow discomfort to get implanted under your skin? Do you scratch the itch?

At some point, you are going to encounter people who disagree with you or, who are closed off to what you are experiencing. What you feel is alive and true for you even if it is not someone else's reality.  Be awareness. Surprise yourself. Peace is not something to be kept or forced. All emotions have peace inside them. You do not find peace.  It arises as you allow it to be here.

In essence, you are aware of space yet, space is not aware of 'you.'  What is real does not need saving or changing as the mind thinks it does.  Watch what happens as you allow all feelings to dance.  Each one is a teacher inviting you to see beyond external conditions to feel through the lens of soul. Through the divine eye, everything is appreciated as it is and for what it is.

Notice you share an experience differently with people.  You may think you express love differently to a friend, child, lover, parent and acquaintance, yet do you really? Only the mind is capable of judging and distinguishing different kinds of love. The heart simply loves. 

When all is said and done

As you become aware of thoughts, you grow aware of the colour the ego gives them. The awakened mind sees through the colour that takes form as beliefs and attitudes. Everything that moves through the mind may manifest through the body. Everything is a pointer.

Engage the intuition. Feel your way into what is reliable. You know how it feels to sense imbalance and to recognize decision-making time. How we deal with each other is what matters. Be at peace with yourself and in harmony with others. Whenever you want to, you can stop the universe and be still. What is real creates peace, stillness and happiness. Be aware of the reactions going on inside the mind. Notice what you know without thinking.

Ask how you can argue with love, harmony, peace? You cannot know them in your head, only through direct experience. When all is said and done, nothing remains. Nothing is always here and is often overlooked. Why? An underlying stream of thoughts adds colour.

Notice what you allow yourself to see. Notice where you get emotionally involved.  Notice where you observe and remain humble and silent.  Notice darkness and light and what it feels like as they merge.  Saying nothing, doing nothing, being nothing, simply be who you are. If ripples exist on the surface of the lake of your mind, you do not see the stars clearly.

"You know if its truth if it leads to peace and harmony and freedom, it leads to letting go, to enlightnement, to the highest happiness, you cna know it must be the truth."  -Buddha

Build on the legacy

Whatever you do in life, do what you love. Sense your legacy.  How do you see it? For whom is this legacy really? People you know and/or do not know? What about yourself?

At different life stages, notice what happens to your priorities. Notice what you begin to recognize emerging in 'the purpose of it all.' Notice what you have an urge to do or share more consciously, what you wish to give back as a gift or gesture to leave the world a little better than as you found it.   Ponder some examples;

1) Pinpoint key moments and experiences. Notice what you view as defining factors of or influence on your drive, focus and love for your discipline, livlihood, people or series of career moves.  How does all this factor into the bigger picture?

2) Networks & Communities.  Notice your core motivation.  The focus on networking is this: What *I* can learn, what am *I* interested in, how can *I* increase *my* visibility and growth. Networking is generally *self*interested.

The focus on community is more selfless in nature. Together *we* co-create know-how, build bridges, orphanages, wells, hospitals, schools, animal shelters/ reserves, endowments, foundations, non-profits and other projects. The view is nobody is as effective or far-reaching as *all*.  Altruistic networks emerge.

3) Connect with the hero inside yourself.  Notice how it feels to be balanced and fully human,.  That is, appreciate each aspect of yourself asit  is and all the wisdom that arises through experience,  Notice what stands out in your current awareness, who or what compliments or enriches your existence.

4) Acknowledge what is burning inside you. This is a wake-up call. You are beginning a process that is like a deep form of soul-searching.  Take notice of who or what you are helping in your daily practice and what comes into your awareness to cature your attention. Do you have the inclination to give time, money, services or something else out of generosity? Who are you helping? Notice where and when you desire nothing in return.

5) Allow energy to flow and watch- see beyond the physical things and potential effort exerted to the energy that speaks through you.  Love and serve yourself and others.  This kind of legacy speaks through vibration, waves, nature and that which is beyond words.

Share your perspective on building on a legacy.  What does it mean at this stage of life? Is it something you do, are doing must do, cannot do or something else?

Do the impossible

Whenever you tell yourself something is impossible, be aware of what you are really saying:

1) 'Impossible' is a state of mind.  The mind expresses doubt and fear about the prospect of success.  Mind grasps working toward the goal, not being it.  Mind cannot see beyond itself.  Mind understands based on its own logic. This only disagrees or denies what exists outside it.

2) 'Unlimited possibility' is a heartfelt state. The heart loves all you are, propose, and imagine. (Hear: 'I AM' possible).  Watch as you focus on what excites you.  Be spontaneous. 

3) More exists beyond the mind and heart.  Visualize what the senses do not yet see.  The 'what' always emerges in awareness before the 'how'.   You only see and experience what you are willing to accept.  As joy flows, it nourishes and expands on the dream. 

Explore what feeling fulfilled feels like.  Imagine fearlessness. Know all is always going well. 

"Ordinary people believe only in the possible. Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible. And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it as possible." -Cherie Carter-Scott
