All is here

You are the dance
You are the stream,
You are the all;
In everything

Here and now
In all that is
All is one,
It’s everything

You can’t hold on,
Only flow
Here and now;
With all that is

Freedom is here,
In all it’s ways
As truth in all;
Here it is

The flow is you
The flow is me
It’s never gone;
All is here

Here and now,
As you are
See it here,
It’s all around

In beauty here,
The truth you are
All is here,
It always is

Love is here,
Love is truth
Breath right here;
Be as you ❀

Where are you looking?

Whatever we look for we will see,
So if we think we don’t have enough that is what we’ll see, and if we think we’ve more than enough that is what we’ll see.

This then effects our whole perception to one where we’re coming from a place of either seeing limitations and suffering or abundance and gratitude. And it really is that simple as in what are we looking for, we get to choose which we see.

Where are you looking

From close up,
Or far back
Can you see the whole,
Or just one part
Are you seeing here,
Or what is not
What do you choose,
To be near or far?
To be one with all,
Or what is not
For all is here,
It always was
If you choose one part
Then you close it off,
For all you see;
Is what you focus on πŸ’—

Order and Flow

Each thing or being is created unique and whole as it is in its truth and oneness. Therefore to resist or reject any part of it in any moment of the journey is to reject the self and also the whole, resulting in a sense of disharmony.

How then to maintain some order and unity in the process of natural flow? As we are a thinking/ meaning creating being the only way I have truly found is through Faith. This I believe is because we can so often be caught up in having to do or be in a certain way, in a world of comparison or duality which in reality is just concepts. All is simply choice. Therefore we choose which way to follow and flow through the direction of our intention.

We are all created unique and will therefore follow a unique path, this is not necessarily set but directed through our own personal intention and experience and ultimately the meaning applied to it. With the capacity of higher consciousness and awareness then order can be both a natural flow and one with an intention applied to it along with Faith.

Without Faith, disunity and resistance can occur. With faith you apply your own internal creative ability in harmony with the external to create a natural flow towards your goal.

The faith then allows it to happen. Without either faith or some external order applied then things do still happen as a natural occurrence but are not directed towards a specific end as well as they may be otherwise. So it is then the blend of the two that create a natural harmony and balance towards achieving your goal.

β€œDirect intention and yet have faith you will be guided towards your goal, there you will flow as naturally as does occur with all nature in its growth.”

The past is over

Unless the past is over in my mind,
The real world must escape my sight. For I am really looking nowhere,
Seeing but what is not there.

– ACIM lesson 289

To be one

To be one
With wherever I am,
In whatever I am doing,
Here, in love with everything

To be one
Within any experience,
Here without any judgement,
Or even any thought thinking

Only the whole,
Here as everything
To be true, to be empty;
Expressed in everything

One with all that is
Here and now in all beauty,
Flowing as one;
Whole but yet empty πŸ™

I am

I am life expressed in all its completeness,
I am beauty, I am love;
I am nature

I am life expressed in all it’s is’ness
I am you,
I am me; I am everything

It is here and now you will see me,
Look around, look within,
I am here; I am everything πŸ’—

~ M. L Adams

Totality

Totality is full expression in all of it’s form. Such a thing can only come from now – it exists in the newness or wholeness of all that is. In order to do this we have to let go- let go of any thought of what was or ought to be.

So it is to just be here, in every moment. Wherever you are, be there, be whole, be as one. All that was in learning and in life is gone. How can anything new ever come fully without letting go of this old, without fully letting go?

In the here and now, in all that is you find truth and it’s only here that the flow exists. It is here you can truly be and become all you can be. Therefore trust in the process in order to let go and flow completely.

In totality you find both good and bad, light and dark and in accepting this all becomes one, it’s there you see the truth, beyond all. Nothing else ever was, it was only ever a masking.

This way in between, in the space, is the way to follow, a way of being. It’s the balance, the truth and it only exists in the now. It is here that all preconceived thoughts and notions are let go of and all then comes from the one truth where anything is possible. Nothing is ever wrong or right, it just is and this is where peace is found.

Thinking in terms of judgement from the past or future is to split the whole, a whole which in reality cannot be split. To know one is to know the other and in acceptance there is full control – All seeing.

This is where you become truly free, with no fixed notions. You are only the knowing and seeing.

Blocks or splits in division, whether that be past/future, me/them, this/ that , better/worse cause conflict from within and out. This conflict is simply denial of the totality or the ISness of life, therefore then disallowing the truth to appear.

Fighters sight

When you look at fighters what do you see?
I see energy, purpose and passion,
I see love beating ever faster
Overcoming that which got in the way,
To reach a resolution that may never be said,
To move beyond,
That which may have always stayed
On to a place far more beautiful,
Far more clear;
Away from any pain,
Or hurtful tears
To move on to true beauty; in heartfelt peace πŸ™

Energy is everything

IMG_8485.JPG

“Energy is everything, what we focus on or hold on to, we become.”

As energy is everything, the importance of conscious energy direction is vital yet something we can so easily forget. We are however most often in a position to consciously direct it.

This is because we are always in a state of choice, whether we are consciously choosing however is something else. There is a large amount of influence to be followed and this can happen to us in many situations, where we can get pulled in one direction or another without much conscious awareness.

It is possible however to be in a state where we allow ourselves to see that we do always have a choice, even if in that moment it may not at first appear so.

A great place to be in is one of balance, where we are not pulled in one direction or another but completely in charge or our own state. This may be called one of the observer. When you are in this state of balance then you know you are in the drivers seat of your life and choosing where you want to go.

This way you are always conscious and rarely if ever unconsciously directed. It is important however that we practice continuously to be attentive to our own energy state.

To do this the best way I have found is to step back and look at a situation or energy state, and consider “is this useful or wasteful to me.” We are then free to redirect our energy on to where it is best placed.

There is never any point in attaching ourselves to that which is wasteful, when we can choose to focus on that which is beautiful, creative and productive instead. Everything starts from within and is then directed out so by consciously choosing we take back the power that is truly ours and create our lives as we choose them to be completely.

Your energy is you, so place it where it is most valuable to you, and make it most meaningful. Then you will know that you’ll never have a wasted day or even a wasted moment, for it will be you that is fully in charge of your energy flow. ❀
