Ephemera

Thoughts are ephemeral, unchosen, and primarily uncontrolled. Don’t let them defeat you. Don’t let them control you. You are not them. Don’t identify with them. That will bring certain suffering.

Your thoughts are like birds passing across a clear, bright, blue sky. You, yourself, your shining magnificence, your true nature is that radiant clear blue sky, while the thoughts simply pass away.

Look for that break in thoughts. That point of still silence. Who or what is watching the thinking going on? See that cloudless, brilliant sky. And there you will find the full, beautiful, empty nothingness of everything.

Autumn Magic

How I embrace the glorious approach of autumn! The oppressive heat of the summer months is again exiled for yet another year. The vivacious crisp air descends upon us like a gentle benediction from that which dreams us into being.

A stillness, a silence, dawns as the earth begins to ready itself for its winter slumber. The fauna prepare to sleep away the winter or die as their short lifespans conclude. The trees, in a radiant, beautiful display that harkens us to remember that all things in this material world of shape and form shall die and pass away into infinity, gloriously change the colors of their leaves before withering into oblivion, just as our bodies will, in time. A reminder to embrace the beauty of this short, exquisite life we have.

Solitude, silence, stillness begin to blanket the land and a calm, abiding, fresh presence welcomes a new season, jubilantly presenting itself for a few short moments.

Autumn. My most favorite of times is upon us and it’s utterly magnificent!

Space Between

These thoughts, which you so ardently and vehemently hold on to with a rapacious greed, identifying with them as yourself, are not you. Find the space between which is.

Stretching


The sky promises emptiness filled with grace.
The earth promises love filled with nothingness.

Between the two, we stretch. We fly. We soar. We awaken. The dream crumbles.

Dreaming

“I am!” Was the lie she eternally whispered to herself so she would believe that she and everything around her was real.

While her heart longed to hear the truth that love forever whispered in her ear, “No, my darling, you are not.”

Stardust and You

Here’s a fabulous secret. You are made of stardust. Stardust from a billion stars. The universe lives in and through you. You are here for the universe to express its love and devotion for experiencing creation and the manifestation of experiences. You are enabling the divine nature of the universe to unfurl and bloom violently and proudly in such magnificent ways we can’t even comprehend with the human mind.

So my challenge to you is this: shine with that brilliant stardust. Shine with the power and glory of a billion stars fulfilling their purpose of universal unfoldment! You are that! You are sacred. You are whole. You are complete. You are the universe! ॐ

Solitude

If you stop everything. Stop looking for something to make you happy. Stop looking for something to make you better. Stop trying to be perfect. Stop trying to be someone else. Stop trying to do, be, have, achieve. If you truly stop all of that and allow yourself to simply rest in what Is you find a solitude. A Beingness. A point of grace where you are immortal— unborn, undying. Beyond the body. Beyond all thought. You find you are a limitless ocean of consciousness. It’s purely beautiful. Serene. Full. Yet empty. It is your essence.

Stop. Feel. Know. You are impenetrable.

You are More

At some point, you began to believe you were a body with a singular point of consciousness animating it. Encapsulated within it. That’s not true. You are that unified vast sea of consciousness that animates the entire cosmos, animating your body. You’re not the finite, my friend. You’re the infinite. You’re so much greater than you’ve been led to believe.

My Wish

I wish I had the ability to convey to all of you how beautiful, sacred, and holy we, and everything truly IS. ALL of this is God. Even you. In all of those things you think are faults. Those are sacred acts of divinity dancing. Wake up to your birthright of your divine nature! I beg you! Please! There exists only ONE thing in this reality, and it is God. It. Is. Us. We are one. Everything is one.

Thoughts

You see all those thoughts that go racing in your head all day? Who’d you think notices them? What’s noticing these thoughts? What’s watching the thoughts race and whirl? Hmmmm? That’s you, actually. The true you that you never pay any attention to. Because you’re too busy listening to the noise of thought. Now. Pay a bit more attention to that HUGE bit of your being and see if you can befriend it. It is the key to your liberation.
