(TRIPLE GODDESS MOON)

 

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.

Be grateful for whatever comes.
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

While many have heard the word “karma”, few fully understand  the meaning of it. The meaning has been lost to misunderstanding…… karma is thought of as being either good or bad. There is an idea that there is a measuring system in the universe that rewards and punishes. It isn’t you, it is something out there controlling you. If misfortune comes your way, well, it must be karmic.

Here’s the reality of karma: The universe is an empty space, open, flowing, always moving in the same way that you are meant to because you are one in the same. When you have thoughts that are in alignment with universal flow, you are going to be energetically lifted to a place of happiness and joy, even bliss. This is your natural element. Yet when you are thinking outside of universal flow, you create for yourself pain and suffering, or what some might call bad karma. Events are set into motion that creates more of the same. These events can last for lifetimes; they can also be transformed in one lifetime.

In the now, in the present moment, all karmic ties can be radically dissolved. How is that possible? It goes back to the universe being an empty, open, flowing space; what we put out there is what we get back, but it comes from us, not some arbitrary measuring system. In the present moment karma wants to play out as it always has. You can decide to go down that road again or not by how you perceive things. No matter what’s going on, you can perceive in a way that empowers you or doesn’t. Karma reminds you of where you have been, but it does not dictate where you are going. That is entirely up to you. Free will….You are in charge of the direction of your life.

Truth involves establishing an aware relationship between your inner core and the circumstances in your life. Centering in truth involves the ability to perceive a fundamental wisdom, reflected within yourself and the people you know.

Truth is transformed into power when you dissolve prejudice and make yourself receptive to the world as it really is. Truth’s power can be a remarkable force indeed — yet is rarer than generally imagined. It can be maintained only by cultivating a genuine openness to things as they are — a willingness to see, rather than merely look.

Whenever your inner life is clouded, your influence in the world is under a shadow. If you are fearful, you will be attacked; if you cloak genuine mysteries in dogma, opportunities for new insight will be lost. If you vacillate in upholding your principles, you will be tested. Yet, when you are firm and strong, the power of truth can break through even the most stubborn minds…..

Whatever you say and think about yourself is story. Sometimes we can become over focused on repeating themes, definitions and narrow views of ourselves. This habit can create a dull and devitalized experience of reality. If you do not fill your mind with new experiences, new ideas and new versions of yourself……… your sense of self becomes dim, worn…..bored with the same old story. As you explore the depth of healing inside yourself and  face your truth….You can  create space for new stories. When you tell the old stories, tell them a bit differently each time. If you repeat the same story about yourself, then be aware that you are missing an opportunity to gather another perspective from those gems of experience:  joys/ecstasies,  tragedies/ crises. When you speak of your experiences, intend to gain a new awareness to hold a more expanded view….to see what your story can become.

You do not see the sky, You are the sky.

You do not touch the earth. You are the earth.

You do not hear rain. You are the rain.

You and the universe are what the mystics call “One Taste.”

–Ken Wilber

The direct way to allow yourself to experience oneness with all, is through your heart. When living from the awareness of your heart’s wisdom there is no doubt, no fear, no resistance to life. Your heart contains the center of your well being. Your heart is truth through unconditional loving awareness. Connect with your heart as often as possible throughout your day and night. Practice cultivating loving thoughts that then shift to loving feelings with yourself and others around you. See the love in all beings and things: people, animals, plants, crystals..etc. As you live in your own energy field of love, notice how sweet life becomes. Notice how your loving energy affects others…..

The double slit experiment is one of the most amazing studies in quantum physics because it shows us the importance of focused intention and how it affects our reality.

In the case of the double split experiment, when we focus on the results, the results remain the same but when focused intent is taken out of the equation, the results are drastically different.

So what are the possibilities and ramifications of this experiment?

Numerous studies question the possibility of parallel universes and multiple timelines. What we perceive in this reality is the cumulative belief system of what this world perceives, based on what we have been taught, and the beliefs we hold as the truth.

What if reality is permeable and the outcome is determined by intention versus preconceived beliefs we know as our current reality?

We’ve all had deja vu  moments where a situation arises that we have felt as if we had already experienced that situation beforehand. What if you DID already experience that particular situation? That would mean that time, as we know it, does not exist and that all experiences are NOT on a linear timeline. In other words, ALL experiences occur at the same time… in the NOW.

If all experiences are happening at the same time, then every possibility of each action is also happening at once in parallel universes. For example, if you chose to wear a yellow shirt this morning, then in parallel realities, you wore every shirt in your closet and dresser in separate realities. These are numerous paradoxes that are created through quantum physics and reflected back to us in our current “reality”. Are you ready to challenge your reality? To consciously experiment with your intention? If so, keep reading..Its so simple.

What do you focus on throughout your day?  For example: In the morning I focus on one value that I would like to be in the world that day. Today it was kindness. Throughout the day I think in my mind “Kindness”…you will forget. Just remind yourself throughout the day “Kindness”. When I looked in the mirror I was kind to my reflection. When I made a mistake, I was kind to myself. Someone cut me off driving and I chose kindness instead of anger. I was kind to anyone I encountered including myself.  I noticed that others were being kind to me too. Suddenly life became kind all around me due to my focused intention on kindness. At the end of the day I suggest for 10 minutes: thinking about, meditating on or writing about what you chose to focus on. This will allow you to see how powerful your intention is when you command it to be…

To trust life… really means to live in total allowance of what is. This does not mean that you live passively in the world. You live in the world with love, honesty and integrity. You live an empowered life.

You know that your experience of life depends entirely upon the choices you make. You know that your thoughts, words and actions lead inevitably to the consequences that follow. You know clearly what you want and what you do not want but you are not attached to the outcome.

If things do not go your way, then you trust that whatever is happening is exactly what is meant to be happening for your highest good and for the highest good of all. Perhaps you were not fully conscious in your choices or in your thoughts, words and actions. Perhaps Life has a lesson for you that will later prove to be invaluable, even if you cannot see its value right now. Perhaps Life has a grander plan for you than you have for yourself.

In any event, your trust in the unfolding of Life is unwavering and unshakeable.. If you do not allow what is happening, then you have entered into resistance, which will take you into separation.  Separation creates suffering. Union and trust with Life creates Love. It is that simple.

Imagine living your life with full trust that you will always be taken care of. No matter what the circumstances…both the joys and the sorrows of life, you will grow and evolve with all that you experience. Life is kind. Life is beautiful. Life is thrilling. Life is filled with mystery that is waiting to be revealed. You can experience your life this way on a daily basis by making a choice to commit to believing that life takes care of you. Life is the meaning you give it. How free you are! When you decide to be. You are so free that life allows you to even believe you are not. Set an intention  each day to view each situation as life giving you the opportunity to expand into new territory especially with the challenges. Challenges allow you to open your heart and move beyond fear. Fear is the life killer, that keeps your heart and mind in prison. Love allows you to be brave and face your darkest fears to realize that fear itself is an illusion….Unless a bear is chasing after you, 99% of fears are false projections. What a waste of precious creative energy being used to generate fear thoughts. Instead this energy could be utilized for creating thoughts of love and positive outcomes. Love is the foundation of trust. Practice loving life will build confidence that life is taking care of you. This allows you to relax and rest into your life.

YOU are the creator of your reality. Your reality is dependent on your choice to expand  your consciousness. You can choose to “expand your perceptual field.”

Your “perceptual field” is determined by your choice of the myriad different persons, places, situations, and things that you choose to perceive, or not perceive. Your physical feelings have a direct effect on your perceptions, and your perceptions have a direct effect on your feelings.

Hence, you can create a “feedback loop” where you may choose to send out fear, and fear returns to you. On the other hand, you could put out a feedback loop in which you focus on “sending out love,” in which, love returns to you.

Also, fear limits your perceptual field to a very narrow range, not allowing all the possibilities to be seen. However, love, especially Unconditional Love, expands your perceptual field. 

This is about your inner perceptual field. By your “inner perceptual field” I mean your inner reality that is constantly created and re-created by your thoughts and emotions.

When your inner perceptual field is guided by peace and calm, your emotional body remains a clear window through which you can perceive your outer reality. On the other hand, when your inner perceptual field is guided by confusion and anxiety, your emotional body creates a blurry, and often self-focused, perceptual field that often creates a sensation of “being a victim.”

You will have this feeling of “being a victim,” because you do not feel as though you are the one who is creating your reality. In this case, there are many frightening possibilities on which you could focus your awareness to create more and more anxiety and fear in your world. The perceptual field is Powerful. You have a choice as to how you wish to experience creating your reality. This is true empowerment from within.
