	Liz Bentley: Cohabitating with the Sentient Living Organism We Call Earth April 16, 2015 By Graham Dewyea Image credit: wakeup-world.com Contrary to the common belief that the Earth is simply a dense planet whose only function is as a resource for its inhabitants, our planet is in fact a breathing, living organism. When we think of the Earth holistically, as one living entity of its own, instead of the sum of its parts, it takes on a new meaning. Our planet functions as a single organism that maintains conditions necessary for its survival. Throughout history, the concept of Mother Earth has been a part of human culture in one form or another. Everybody has heard of Mother Earth, but have you ever stopped to think who (or what) Mother Earth is? What is Gaia? The Gaia hypothesis states that life creates conditions on Earth to suit itself; that Life created the planet Earth, not the other way around. James Lovelock published in a book in 1979 Gaia: A New Look at Life on Earth, which provided many useful lessons about the interaction of physical, chemical, geological, and biological processes on Earth. Lovelock defined Gaia as “… a complex entity involving the Earth’s biosphere, atmosphere, oceans, and soil; the totality constituting a feedback or cybernetic system which seeks an optimal physical and chemical environment for life on this planet”. Through Gaia, the Earth sustains a kind of homeostasis, the maintenance of relatively constant conditions. The truly startling component of the Gaia hypothesis is the idea that the Earth is a single living entity. This idea is certainly not new. James Hutton (1726-1797), the father of geology, once described the Earth as a kind of superorganism. And right before Lovelock, Lewis Thomas, a medical doctor and skilled writer, penned these words in his famous collection of essays, “The Lives of a Cell”: “Viewed from the distance of the moon, the astonishing thing about the earth, catching the breath, is that it is alive. The photographs show the dry, pounded surface of the moon in the foreground, dry as an old bone. Aloft, floating free beneath the moist, gleaming, membrane of bright blue sky, is the rising earth, the only exuberant thing in this part of the cosmos. If you could look long enough, you would see the swirling of the great drifts of white cloud, covering and uncovering the half-hidden masses of land. If you had been looking for a very long, geologic time, you could have seen the continents themselves in motion, drifting apart on their crustal plates, held afloat by the fire beneath. It has the organized, self-contained look of a live creature, full of information, marvelously skilled in handling the sun.” John Nelson illustrated the “Breathing Earth”, with animated GIFs he designed to visualize what a year’s worth of Earth’s seasonal transformations look like from outer space. Nelson – a data visualizer – stitched together from NASA’s website 12 cloud-free satellite photographs taken each month over the course of a year. Once the images were put together in a sequence, the mesmerizing animations showed what Nelson describes as “the annual pulse of vegetation and land ice” of Gaia. As the climate changes, the planet comes alive. Earth appears to breathe when ice cover grows and melts — in and out, in and out. White frost radiates out from the top of the globe and creeps south in all directions. It travels through Siberia, Canada, and northern Europe, heading towards the equator located around the circle’s edge, but ends before the top of Africa. The Mediterranean Sea is the visible body of water on the top left hand side, and the Great Lakes make up a small network of dark blue shapes on the land mass to the right. The Gaia Hypothesis The Earth acts as a single system – it is a coherent, self-regulated, assemblage of physical, chemical, geological, and biological forces that interact to maintain a unified whole balanced between the input of energy from the sun and the thermal sink of energy into space. In its most basic configuration, the Earth acts to regulate flows of energy and recycling of materials. The input of energy from the sun occurs at a constant rate and for all practical purposes is unlimited. This energy is captured by the Earth as heat or photosynthetic processes, and returned to space as long-wave radiation. On the other hand, the mass of the Earth, its material possessions, are limited (except for the occasional input of mass provided as meteors strike the planet). Thus, while energy flows through the Earth (sun to Earth to space), matter cycles within the Earth. The idea of the Earth acting as a single system as put forth in the Gaia hypothesis has stimulated a new awareness of the connectedness of all things on our planet and the impact that man has on global processes. No longer can we think of separate components or parts of the Earth as distinct. No longer can we think of man’s actions in one part of the planet as independent. Everything that happens on the planet – the deforestation/reforestation of trees, the increase/decrease of emissions of carbon dioxide, the removal or planting of croplands – all have an affect on our planet. The most difficult part of this idea is how to qualify these effects, i.e. to determine whether these effects are positive or negative. If the Earth is indeed self-regulating, then it will adjust to the impacts of man. However, as we will see, these adjustments may act to exclude man, much as the introduction of oxygen into the atmosphere by photosynthetic bacteria acted to exclude anaerobic bacteria. This is the crux of the Gaia hypothesis. One of the early predictions of this hypothesis was that there should be a sulfur compound made by organisms in the oceans that was stable enough against oxidation in water to allow its transfer to the air. Either the sulfur compound itself, or its atmospheric oxidation product, would have to return sulfur from the sea to the land surfaces. The most likely candidate for this role was deemed to be dimethyl sulfide. Published work done at the University of Maryland by first author Harry Oduro, together with UMD geochemist James Farquhar and marine biologist Kathryn Van Alstyne of Western Washington University, provides a tool for tracing and measuring the movement of sulfur through ocean organisms, the atmosphere and the land in ways that may help prove or disprove the controversial Gaia theory. Their study appears in this week’s Online Early Edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The Story of Water by Alick Bartholomew, is another unique publication in that it reflects the author’s deep knowledge of the principles of whole geophysical systems, which helps us understand the Earth as an integrated Gaia system that sustains us. The book begins by describing our usual view of water based on Western science and then deftly moves on to the frontier sciences that embrace water as the source of life in terms of biological systems, quantum energy fields, etheric fields, spirals, vortices, and as a medium for communications and memory. An understanding of these principles can lead to strategies for treating our water in ways that guarantee a sustainable future for humankind. How Does Gaia Work? The homeostasis regulated by the Earth is much like the internal maintenance of our own bodies; processes within our body insure a constant temperature, blood pH, electrochemical balance, etc. The inner workings of Gaia, therefore, can be viewed as a study of the physiology of the Earth, where the oceans and rivers are the Earth’s blood, the atmosphere is the Earth’s lungs, the land is the Earth’s bones, and the living organisms are the Earth’s senses. Lovelock calls this the science of geophysiology – the physiology of the Earth (or any other planet). To understand how the Earth is living, let’s take a look at what defines life. Physicists define life as a system of locally reduced entropy (life is the battle against entropy). Molecular biologists view life as replicating strands of DNA that compete for survival and evolve to optimize their survival in changing surroundings. Physiologists might view life as a biochemical system that us able to use energy from external sources to grow and reproduce. According to Lovelock, the geophysiologist sees life as a system open to the flux of matter and energy but that maintains an internal steady-state. Beyond the scientific importance of what we have discussed here, we might do well to consider some of the more poetical thoughts of the originator of the theory: “If Gaia exists, the relationship between her and man, a dominant animal species in the complex living system, and the possibly shifting balance of power between them, are questions of obvious importance… The Gaia hypothesis is for those who like to walk or simply stand and stare, to wonder about the Earth and the life it bears, and to speculate about the consequences of our own presence here. It is an alternative to that pessimistic view which sees nature as a primitive force to be subdued and conquered. It is also an alternative to that equally depressing picture of our planet as a demented spaceship, forever traveling, driverless and purposeless, around an inner circle of the sun.” The Gaia hypothesis states that life creates conditions on Earth to suit itself; that Life created the planet Earth, not the other way around. As we explore the solar system and galaxies beyond, it may one day be possible to design an experiment to test whether life indeed manipulates planetary processes for its own purposes or whether life is just an evolutionary processes that occurs in response to changes in the non-living world. “Cohabitating With The Sentient Living Organism We Call Earth”, by Liz Bentley, April 7, 2015 at http://www.shift.is/2015/04/cohabitating-with-the-sentient-living-organism-we-call-earth/ Original link: Cohabitating With The Sentient Living Organism We Call Earth

	APRIL 16, 2015 BY WES ANNAC The Ultimate Treasure Credit: Pinterest.com By Wes Annac, The Culture of Awareness Franklin Merrell-Wolff, who we’ll hear from here, frequently referred to enlightenment as a “treasure”. Like a lot of spiritual teachers have told us, enlightenment is as much of a destructive process as it is constructive, but at the “end” of it all, we’ll come out shining, divine beings who are fully aware of our divinity and are able to use our newfound, elevated awareness to address society’s biggest problems. We’re becoming aware of our Godliness and the things we can achieve once we tap into it, but for the most part, none of us have really found enlightenment. We still have quite a path ahead of us before we get there, but our spiritual evolution isn’t about reaching the destination – it’s about enjoying ourselves along the way. Some of us have probably put enlightenment on the backburner so we can focus on our mission to use our awareness and, in some cases, creativity, to uplift the world. We’re fortunate enough to be evolving as we strive to awaken the planet, and in every moment, we inch nearer and nearer to a higher state of consciousness. This can reassure us as we focus on working, but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make some kind of effort to pursue enlightenment. We can get there a lot quicker if we consciously focus on the spiritual path and actually try to raise our vibration, and all we really have to do for now is focus on our inner perception and the creativity it inspires. We’ll find enlightenment in time, but we might want to pursue it now so we can prepare for what’s to come. Credit: Pinterest.com According to Franklin Merrell-Wolff, the “treasure” of enlightenment is more valuable than any other achievement. “I would place this treasure far above anything which may be obtained in the [ordinary] world field, in whatever domain, such as achievement in government, in business, in science, philosophy, mathematics or the arts. All these stand as values far inferior to these greater values which come from Fundamental Realization.” (1) Our mission might not even be as valuable as enlightenment, but it’s still important. The rest of the world might have trouble awakening if we don’t work hard to raise awareness, but again, we might as well focus on enlightenment while we help others awaken. Whereas we once felt separate from God or even forsaken, enlightenment fills us to the brim with God’s eternal, everlasting love. “He who realizes the obverse of the Crucifixion of Jesus forgets the latter in the presence of that Majestic Glory which sheds a Light so potent as to consume all darkness within Its range. The ‘Eli, Eli, lama sabachtnai,’ seen from one side as ‘My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me’ becomes, ‘My God, My God, how greatly has Thou exalted me!’” (2) When it comes to healing the world and fixing our broken society, enlightenment is the best tool we could have. “It remains true to my present state of consciousness that I would say that no accomplishment, in the world field, can be effective in solving the wrongness which is so evidence in that field, without the insight and resources which are derived from Fundamental Realization. … “As we advance in our scientific knowledge we not only implement the powers of good that may be in the world but we also implement the powers of evil, with the result that the old difficulties, the old wrongness, return again, if anything in an amplified form. “Therefore, if we are to resolve in any durable way these difficulties that call for the function of Redemption, it is necessary that more and more of this human whole should attained the perspective and the resources that come from Enlightenment.” (3) Credit: Everestuncensored.org “As many people as possible” should seek enlightenment, he tells us. “…that which is needed is a seeking for the ultimate Attainment on the part of as many people as possible.” (4) Enlightenment is the greatest solution to our problems, which are caused by our separation from our essence. “In [this that I had realized] lay the one effective key for the solving of [humanity’s] problems. The little tragedies of men left me indifferent. I saw one great Tragedy, the cause of all the rest, the failure of man to realize his own Divinity. I saw but one solution, the Realization of this Divinity.” (5) If we wait until the end of life to seek enlightenment, it’ll be too late and we’ll either have to seek it from the spiritual realms (which would take a lot longer) or from a fresh human body. “The personal life is centered upon the world-field; though it is a doomed life in any case since, inevitably, Death reaps all here. Still, the personality never quite believes this and strives in its feebleness to will its continuance in the outer world, until in ripe old age it craves rest, even though it be at the price of extinction. “But when this hour of tiredness has come, it is already too late to achieve the Awakening in that body, for this Awakening calls for a profound, though possibly subtle, virility.” (6) We might want to focus on our mission and on elevating our consciousness, and however important our mission is (it’s very important to me), we don’t want to miss out on enlightenment just because we were so focused on helping others. We have to be willing to help ourselves as much as we help the rest of the world, and this is one reason I always mention the benefits of meditation. Those of us who are working hard to help others would benefit from finding some time to meditate every day, and no matter how important our role is or how hard we want to work, finding some time to explore our consciousness is the best thing we can do for ourselves. Credit: Openhandweb.org Our work will always be there, but we only have so much “time” to explore ourselves. While our work is important, exploring our consciousness and enlightening ourselves is just as crucial, if not more so. Enlightenment is just the beginning of our greater life in the higher realms, Franklin tells us. “I cannot too strongly emphasize the fact that Liberation is no more the end of life than is a college commencement the end of the young man or woman who graduates. It is simply the end of one stage and the beginning of another. The really worthwhile Life begins after Liberation. “When this new Freedom is attained, a Man may return Home, as it were, and spend a long period enjoying the warmth and comfort of that Home. “On the other hand, He may return and continue with his chosen profession on a larger field. Some, who have been highly exhausted by their labors at college, may need a long rest, but obviously Those who are strong should occupy Themselves with the Activities of Real Life.” (7) Even if we’re tired at the beginning and we prefer to rest or enjoy some leisurely activities in the greater, more expanded consciousness enlightenment will offer, we’ll eventually shake off our sleepiness and start working/playing hard in our new sphere. I’m sure the same can be said for when we depart the body. Some people will want to rest, while others will be excited to explore the landscape that’s opened up before them. Maybe it comes down to our personality and the experiences we had on earth, and personally, I’m not sure if I’d rest for a while or jump headfirst into whatever work awaited me. I suppose we’d all need a little time to adjust and get used to our new state of consciousness, and once we adjust, the fun can really begin. As we’ve learned, enlightenment is more important and beneficial than anything we can achieve or experience on earth, and even the hardworking spiritual seekers among us will want to strive for it. Credit: Consciousness-evolution.org What’s interesting is that ‘striving’ for it isn’t really striving at all. All it requires is the permanent transcendence of our ego-centered consciousness; that aspect of us that has trouble releasing its tight grip on reality and going with the flow. The mind, if rigid and continuously obeyed, will do everything in its ultimately limited power to prevent us from finding enlightenment or just enjoying life. This is why making the crucial transition from the mind to the heart will help us so much along this crazy journey. The heart isn’t concerned with its identity or with constantly racing around to find “happiness”, because it naturally embodies happiness, wholeness and every other quality the mind tries so hard to find. Thus, shifting from ego to heart-centered consciousness will make enlightenment a constant aspect of our existence, and beyond working hard to help others, we won’t really ‘strive’ for anything. We won’t feel the need to strive for happiness, because we’ll finally have everything we’ll ever need and for the first time in a long time, life will finally start to make sense. Our connection with the heart and with God/Source/Jah is the most important thing we can establish, so we’ll want to keep this connection in mind and try to expand it as we raise awareness and share the philosophies that resonate with us. The end result will be infinitely worth the effort we made to get there, and from an enlightened, heart-centered space, we can radiate our love and awareness into the world and help everyone find and maintain that essential connection that’s been missing for so long.

	Golden Gaia News Roundup: April 17, 2015 April 17, 2015 By Lindsey Nobles Senators, Congress, Republicans, or Democrats… who are they representing? Their districts? Their States? Their political affiliation? Most government officials are not middle class and free of corruption like most of us taxpayers. I thought in order to be taxed, we needed to be represented in our government. We haven’t been for a long time. Most of us are not big business or campaign donors. With the public’s trust in the government free falling into an abyss of frustration, an anti-corruption movement is taking hold.Campaigns are beginning at local levels to help the people win back the Republic. The Anti-Corruption Act is now gaining momentum and is working from a ‘local first’ mentality. The first Anti-Corruption Act has already passed in Tallahassee, FL and more have followed. There are multiple campaigns coming for the rest of this year and the next. The Anti-Corruption Movement is growing and who knows, it may be on your ballots soon. Taxation Without Representation By Josh Silver and Theodore Roosevelt IV, Huffington Post Epidemic Depression To really explore the root of depression and what it does and why the cabal wants to anesthetize us from real healing is a subject not many people are able to articulate. Neil Maves, in my opinion really hit some major points. Epidemic depression as a wake up call to humanity By: Neil Maves,sott.com Depression is essentially unavoidable if you pay attention to the world outside of you and give it more value than understanding who you are on the inside and why you are being triggered by the world around you. Is your car fast enough? Do you have enough hair? Do you have too much hair? Who should you want to be vs. who you really are affects most people daily. At some point we need to understand that we should want to be who we are and love and accept ourselves with all our faults, all our misgivings, all our flaws. It’s hard. That takes looking at ourselves. It takes understanding and acceptance that we chose our life, our looks, our family, our experience. For me, that opened my eyes a great deal. My awakening experience was created by me for me even though my experiences have been difficult, unpleasant, or painful. It was painfully and beautifully orchestrated by me for my growth and evolvement. That’s a tough pill to swallow for some, that’s why a pharmaceutical offers a more desirable option for some. I am not in any way taking away from people who really need to take medication, all I’m saying is sometimes therapy and pills are not a substitute for truly understanding WHY we are experiencing these feelings. Sometimes the root cause is tough, very tough. It takes strength to deal with it. We are constantly reminded that we aren’t strong enough, we aren’t smart enough, and we aren’t good enough to get past these feelings. Heck, they make commercials for anti-depressants like they are the only answer to depression. The depression can be hidden, suppressed, or buried but it will never really go away until you can accept it and release it. This is something most people have no idea how to do or that they are even capable of doing it. You Are. You Are Strong Enough. It’s not easy though and tears will be shed. Negative emotional charges build up in the endocrine system and cause shut downs that need to be released so the blockages that stop people from growing can be removed. Tears are a great way to release, but it takes introspection. Always ask why. Keep digging. The hurt will get to a critical mass, but when done properly, when you revisit these memories the pain will be gone. It will be like you are thinking about them in third person, like they happened to someone else. That is when you know you have experienced a true endocrine flush. Often we tell ourselves we have dealt with depressions and pain from our past, when in reality we haven’t. If we still have these memories pop up and they still evoke a lower frequency emotion, we have merely buried it, not released it. You will know definitively when you have honestly released a painful memory, you won’t “think” you’ve healed, you will know. I feel that true emotional healing is way under emphasized because we are living in an age of convenience. Why FEEL when I can just numb it and ignore it? It seems easier. Really it’s not, this is the root cause of “dis-ease”. Emotional healing does lead to physical healing. It’s not as easy as a pharmaceutical or a surgery you have to actually dig in and commit to your own personal healing. No one can do it for you. Give yourself some love, nurturing, and acceptance today. Even if you aren’t sad, depressed, or in a bad mood. Even if you are already having a wonderful day. It can’t hurt to make sure you show yourself some self love. We are far greater beings than we have been told, far greater than most of us realize. In Light and Love, Lindsey

	The Oracle Report, Friday, April 17, 2016 Posted on April 17, 2015 [by Jean]by Jean MAJESTIC ROCK FORMATIONS TAKEN IN COLORADO BY WISE OWL MARIE Balsamic Moon Phase: release, dream Moon in Aries Wisdom Goddess: all Skill: stand aside and let the energy sweep away the old and outworn; prepare to seed your intentions for the new year tomorrow Positive Imprints: going with the flow, acceptance, recognition of patterns, beacons of light, assistance from spiritual sources, standing up or owning up, unity, striking a chord, purge of the past, new paths, appreciation of someone’s help, darkness abating Catalysts for Change: blaming others, being too hard on self, feeling unproductive, scattered, ungrounded, lashing out at someone who is trying to help, taking on other’s issues thus taking away their personal journey, unappreciated, divide and conquer tactics Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: “a majestic rock formation resembling a face is idealized by a boy who takes it up as his ideal of greatness, and as he grows up begins to look like it” Today is an historic day, perched as we are at the edge between an old world and a new one. While I wish I could wax poetic this “new year’s eve” on how the sweeping of the field of consciousness today ushers a new age that begins tomorrow, I endeavor to always keep it real. The truth is, today carries a combination of some of the most emotionally-challenging energetics possible. The Sabian symbols in effect today include: a large disappointed audience a man in deep gloom; unnoticed, angels come to his aid aroused strikers round a factory a widow at an open grave a porter carrying heavy baggage So the wisdom today is to recognize that a re-setting of the field is happening, and with it may come emotional catharsis, depression, anger, feelings of loss, a desire to be released from burdens, shattered illusions, and hopelessness. You may experience this to some degree or a loved one may be experiencing it. It’s ok. It’s just an experience of shedding the old. Don’t become attached to it. If you catch a strong, “negative” emotion, feel through it and let it pass. It will, but it is coming up for a reason, so don’t judge it. Allow it to go. Pluto stations retrograde (appears to move backward in the sky) today and is going to take out a lot of things as it does. It is taking out the past so that transformation can emerge. But, as long-time readers know, the day a planet stations retrograde or direct always makes craziness. When a planet “changes direction,” people can easily lose their minds. The best-laid plans can be up-ended with all sorts of chaos breaking out. We can choose to view all of this as a “deep clean” and let the sweeping energy complete its mission. The only objective today is to let go of the past and embrace the future. We honor the process that is underway, give thanks, and prepare for the New Moon. (It is for this reason – the old sweeping out for the new – that I will record the audio overview of the lunar month after the sweep. We need to deal with what is at hand and come back under better energetics.) The New Moon occurs at 2:56 pm ET/6:56 pm UT tomorrow. Since the Sabian symbol for the New Moon is “the music of the spheres,” let’s all play music (actually play it yourself if you are a musician or play recorded versions if you are not) and celebrate the beginning of an age. “Seed” your intentions for the new year- your ideals of greatness, the things we have focused on all month long – by stating, visualizing, writing, or expressing them in some way. Plan to connect with the planet and perform your own ceremony of thanks, knowing you are doing it with a fellowship around the world. Calling all owls..

Chris Bourne: Right Action and the Path of Light

April 17, 2015 By Graham Dewyea

How do we create the lives that best serve us?
We are still frequently being asked about our thoughts on manifestation:how do we create the lives that best serve us? From our perspective, in true authenticity, it is not a case of manifesting by mind led intention, rather we tune into our higher self, align with the natural energetic flow of the moment and simply allow creative “Right Action” to unfold as a natural expression of who we really are. So if you’re not completely content with the circumstances of your life and you’re interested in creating a more harmonious one, you might be interested in reading this point of view…

Consciousness creating reality

It is not just our thoughts that create our reality, it would be more accurate to say our entire consciousness creates it – the sum total of what we are being and expressing through ALL our bodily vehicles of expression. Herein lies the problem when we try to manifest a particular reality; all too often the ego or small “I” is trying to do it. In other words we are trying to make choices based on our conditioned behaviours, our hopes and desires or alternatively as a result of our worries and fears.

For example, we feel insecure so we try to manifest a better paid job; we’re uncomfortable being alone so we try to manifest a partner; we’re not happy with our house so we effort to get a better one.

This are all hopes, wishes and desires of the ego, the personality – the small “I”. They are based on controlling thought forms prevalent in our society and conditoned behaviours – fixed neural pathways in the brain generated from our upbringing. However this is only a fraction of our consciousness. Our unique expression of divinity is the soul. We came here to connect with our soul, reintegrate it fully into our lives and allow it complete freedom of expression so that it may glorify our true beingness.

In the groove

Authentic creation happens spontaneously in the moment flowing downwards as energy from our higher self – the highest aspect of the soul closest to the source. When we are truly aligned with this, our creative action happens as one with the natural flow of the Universe – the whole Universe is creating in harmony with us. We may call this “Right Action”. It feels like we are completely ‘in the groove’ so to speak – we align to a natural rhythm in life which is blissful and magical to behold.

What gets in the way of Right Action in our lives are all our conditioned behaviours. So as the soul flows through the bodymind, the energy is distorted, fragmented and dimmed. Since our reality is created from what we are being within, this inner turmoil is reflected through our outer lives and as a result, frequently we manifest mayhem! When we realise this, often it seems we may try to create an inner focus by holding a particular vision or intention. This may work for a while, but it is contradicting the natural flow of the Universe and our destined unfolding within it. Ultimately this illusionary vision will break down.

The soul is awesomely okay with all circumstances. It has no particular needs, wants or desires. It has no fear of a particular pathway or outcome. Its purpose is to simply unfold its unique way of being. Our challenge is to align with this sense of centredness, completeness and immortality. The destiny of the soul is to take us into all those circumstances where we do not have this inner peace. In other words, we create on the outside circumstances that reflect our inner state of consciousness. Every single circumstance and moment of our lives presents this continually updating mirror saying “this is what you are now being, does that serve you?” In other words, are you being guided by the soul or the personality? from a sense of completeness or a sense of lack?

Absolute authentic reality

If what we are being feels right, we feel aligned with what we know to be the absolute authentic reality of the moment – that which transcends everyone’s expectations, desires or perceived needs. If we feel totally authentic in this way, then my advice would be to keep on doing that AT WHATEVER APPARENT PERSONAL COST (even your death!). If on the other hand, we create circumstances that make us feel tight and uncomfortable inside, we might then ask “To what am I attached? What particular outcome or experience do I think I need? What am I afraid of from this circumstance?”

“The act of creating is the act of allowing.
In looking within, we see past the distortions of the ego
to find what is meant to be.
When we know what is meant to be,
we become as one with the divine will…
the inner most longing of our highest self;
we become an open channel and
infinite potential is manifested through us,
and through us, the infinite cycle is complete.”

Openhand

If we keep watching all our motivations for action from the place of the Observer of ourselves, then over time we will begin to realise our attachments within the drama of life. The we can begin to let them go by softening into the tightness they create, and then expressing our higher truth – the purest expression of the true nature we can feel. In which case the distorted behaviour patterns that have arisen from our attachments will dissolve and we’ll become ever more comfortable in our own skin. We’ll align with the authenticity of our soul and this greater harmony will be reflected outwards into our daily lives.

Being IS the change

The important thing to note is that we do not have to manifest or effort to create the lives that best serve us. Our destined reality unfolds – like a path of light – before us as a direct consequence of us connecting with and expressing our highest truth…
