Its all pointing here

Imagine a life where you do not have to do anything about anything.  Imagine a  life where nothing is wrong, where every choice you make at a given moment is the right one.  Give up all your emotion and effort to get somewhere. Let go of restlessness.  It may seem too simple to be true. Recognize you are the seer and experiencer, the observer and participant in this life.

What if you do not have to do, be or become anything? From this moment, notice what the mind would have you believe.  Then step back and accept every view is a reflection of the timeless recognizing itself.  Reconnect with the dimensions and perspectives you temporarily cut off.  

As the mind carries no intention, ambition or neediness, it is spontaneously one. It does not view itself as a separate part of anything.   Recognize the attitudes you hold toward 'the other.' All you think is a self-fulfilling projection.  As you drop the resistance and false ideas you adopt as a child, you slowly let go of all fixations and identities connected with the body.  What's left?

Be  true nature, the state of pure awareness.  See things with less distortion.  Allow peace to fill you. To see everything as equal is to love and appreciate yourself unconditionally.  When you are truly free, you expect nothing and simply flow freely with the stream of life. He who is truly rich wants nothing.  He who has desires is simply playing the role of creator for a while.

"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women are merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages." - William Shakespeare

Flexibility serves you

Reflect on occasions where circumstances do not pan out as you initially envision.  How do you feel about this? Being flexible serves you. Notice what it feels like to resist the way things unfold. Notice how much easier it feels to adjust to changing conditions when you are not attached to particular outcomes. Feel your way to the right choice.

"Nothing is softer and more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it." - Lao Tzu

Tap into inner wisdom

Regardless of your current situation or focus, you create it to learn and you are ready to access inner wisdom. In this moment, you may hesitate, hearing different voices that beckon your attention.  Perhaps you know what its like to feel torn, to question or self-doubt.  After all, how do you know what is the best guide? Consider these tips:

1) Know the value of waiting:

"Do you have the patience to wait until the mud settles and the water is clear?" Can you wait until the right action arises by itself?" - Lao Tzu

2) Be aware of what you think and feel:

"You must know what you are feeling. If you don't know what you are feeling, you will create (or act) unconsciously." - Gary Zukav

3) Notice everything can be reduced to love versus fear:

"only two emotions exist in the Physical Universe - LOVE and FEAR. All other emotions are just variations. LOVE is the emotion associated with a 'knowing' that everything in the Universe is an expression of a singularity (i.e. God) and is therefore interconnected, whereas FEAR is the emotion underlying the perception (i.e. illusion) of being separate from God." -Alex Paterson

4) Recognize love does not rationalize or argue

"feel the presence in your heart, and to know that this presence embodies the blessings, compassion, energy, and wisdom." - Sogyal Rinpoche

"There is no fear in love but perfect love drives out fear." -1 John 4: 18

5) Identify the choice that is true to who you are:

"Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood." -Marie Curie

"Don't try to understand love. Move into love.  Then you will know and that knowing will come out of your experiencing." - Osho

6) Recognize what brings harmony to heart and mind: 

“Follow the Eightfold Path, that is to say: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.” -Buddha

7) Detach from outcome: 

"Those who are attuned to the truth, remain balanced and detached forever."
-Sri Guru Granth Sahib

Notice who's worldly wisdom stands out for you at this moment.  Everyone is a mirror inviting you to listen deeper to what the spirit echos.  Consider universal wisdom speaks through everything.  Notice what you are ready and willing to hear of the truth.

"Only that in you which is me can hear what I'm saying." -Baba Ram Dass

Do nothing

All experience through ego, creates perception based on comparison.  As you align with the inner witness, you feel authentic power is beyond ego and requires doing nothing.  This is beyond judgment. To awaken is to sense the freedom of all you are in all that is, and the revelation that nothing real ever actually changes. Peace and contentment reign.

"From within or from behind, a light shines through us upon things and makes us aware that we are nothing, but the light is all."  -Ralph Waldo Emerson
