Love is the Source of everything

I think it is so easy to get caught up in trying to rid yourself of states that don't seem God like.  But the truth is, all that is ever happening is God - the good, the bad and the ugly - it's all the Divine.  Trying to free yourself from the things you don't like is just an avoidance of being here fully.  There is nothing to run from - no matter how bad you might feel about yourself or the world - Love is the Source of all of it and you are only bound by the core belief that this shouldn't be happening.  When you relax into what simply Is, you begin to embrace what you don't like with love instead of working towards achieving some state of freedom that is only imagined by the mind.

Freedom is being right here, allowing all to simply be.  Threat dissolves and there is only Dancing with what Is.  This is where Infinite possibilties live and Love becomes your guiding force.

A passage from an Adi Da poem

The wonder is not whether we will be together, me with those I am loving, on some other side. The wonder is that we've met and been together, loving here, in this half-made world where love is yet to take it's hold. ~Adi Da

The Guru is Within

I met my Guru in September 2001.   Up until then, I had been running scared; terrified of the vastness that I felt within.   I felt as if I would be swallowed up into it, never to return if I stopped running.   My Guru was the first person who ever told me that I was actually waking up and that every single person on this planet experienced that same existential fear, but I was just in touch with it.   She assured me that it was a good thing, so I trusted her and continued to let go.   During my time with her, I came to realize that I was actually creating the terror that I felt by running and holding on.    I got to see that fear was simply arising and when I allowed it without tensing or pushing it away, it dissolved.   Just like sorrow, anger and all emotions.   I came to understand that it mattered what I did with my attention.   If my attention was drawn into mind/emotions, I suffered; if I relaxed and allowed whatever was arising to simply be felt, there was freedom.   Yet, af

Living as the rawness of life

My spiritual quest was all about getting to a place where I would no longer have to feel the pain of separation.  I wanted to be free of feeling the horror of this world where death and separation are inevitable.  But what I discovered is that in my wanting it to be something other than what it is, I was turning away from what is real and always present in the moment.  That which is the world and breathes my very being is never separate from any of us.  It's impossible.  The same unknowable Source that lives you, is living me.  We are That which is always present.  But even so, realizing this to be true does not relieve me from experiencing the pain of separation and the fragility of our humanness.   If anything, I feel it more as the realization deepens.  I am much more aware of my simple humanness and am able to feel the rawness of life without turning away from it.  Where the burning pain for connection is freely allowed, embraced and met with Love all at the same time.
