where you are

no matter where you think you are

no matter what you believe yourself to believe

in matter

in thought

which is matter

there is

presence

in

all things

the ever knowing

You

you can hear the choirs of ancient voices

that once sung

of praise and beauty

to the simplicity of all things

and then as their time

was spent

so their songs became

part of the old starlight

the fabric of the energy of space

and as their voices touched

a living planet

there,

they made

the start of Life

an impulse to voice

and sound

and creation became the

result

a function of the duality

in the endless riddles

of time

consciousness

and becoming

you can hear every voice

singing

a long and sonorous song

on the arc of light

and space

in the quantity of degrees

the equinox of beauty

and eternity

fit together

a pulse, a wave,

a sudden flicker

a quake, a drum beat

of love,

love,

the eternal fragrance

of becoming, being,

beginnings and endings

the singer that lives within the song

over over old events of the past?

Does sorrow live for ever?

Only grief would have you believe that

There comes a time when grief will pass away

and sorrow will no longer haunt the mind

or the actions of daily life

Why let new tears fall onto the ground?

Look up into the everness of the heart

look down, to the sides of your being

everywhere is the heart

The heart calls all those who wish for life

to come and bathe in the

light of wisdom and humour

why let old tears fall to the ground?

when all things pass away

and mankind is no more

when even the memory of starlight

loses its traces in the depths of space

the heart of all things

will still

beat

life’s rythymn

and sing

like a mother to a child

why let new tears drop to the ground?

each one, single, ample

pristine and full of life

holding history and potential

let your tears be ones of joy

joy for the sanctity of your being

and the beauty

of all that you have been

and shall be

carefree and glancing as they lap around the

last remains of a sky scraping tower

the young child from the little boat looks up with wondering eyes

‘who made these things?’ his mother catches his thoughts..

‘men who were like gods, men who fell to the earth and could not get up again’

the child wonders,sad thoughts

trawling a memory of what was once

another world, fingers trailing in water

as fish swirl around the little boat

as by thought it moves silently

across the great saltwater lake

deep in the refracted depths

white whales harvest the plankton

while a serrated moon

hangs tilted in the blue starred night

years pass the child now a man

goes past in a little boat

and his daughter wonders the very same as he once did

a hundred years go past

people pass by they do not see the ruins

they do not know what they are

the ruins

they have slipped

from memory and so they do not exist

” I thought I dealt with this!

I thought it was over and done with!

why did it take so long to deal with it..why Now?

I have wasted all the years, why couldn’t I have dealt with this years ago?’

Because change takes time, like true love, it takes the understanding of time

and the acceptance that change only comes when you are ready..

and often we may think we are ready, but deep within we are not

Change takes time, and time can only be a helper if you see time as agent of change

Time goes in cycles , not in a straight line..

Change goes in cycles, not in a straight line..

There are no straight lines within the growing psyche,

in the inner expression of spiritual change there always is to be found a cycle

of change and time, like two different coloured flowers on one slender plant

Time needs change to give meaning to humanity

and Change needs Time to grow and mature

We are all children of time and change

They are two of  twelve great mysteries that give humanity the impulse of evolution.

Karma is any intentional process, a thought, action, word or gesture or combination of all that is done with intent and focus. This the primary impulse of Karma. It does not matter whether the intent is positive or negative.  Because such activity creates many patterns that replicate themselves beyond measurement, we all are linked in a karmic fish net, that trawls the bottom of our unconscious karmic ocean.

If we wish to change patterns in our life, we need to understand what prompts our thoughts, actions, words and gestures, and what are the drives behind our intentions and focus. We can change karmic patterns by changing the nature of our intentions to the world, our inner world, outer world and to all people and other living creatures.

People often wonder …what  is Rebirth, thinking it the same as Reincarnation.

Rebirth is the process of suddenly been born as soon as you are dead without any understanding or control over the emotional, psychological and spiritual aspects of dying. If you lived a confused life and died with confusion, fear or any other overwhelming emotion that caused you to feel trapped,then it can be that you will be born immediately, as there are endless wombs waiting to be filled with life.

Rebirth is sudden and without understanding, it is a rush an endless flow and pattern. But you can rise out of that pattern by learning how to become conscious and more aware of your inner state so it does not sabotage your mental state as you die. This leads us to Reincarnation.

People often wonder… what Reincarnation is…

Reincarnation is the conscious application of mental , emotional and spiritual insight to yourself as you die, thus clearing away all the inner fears and projections that emanate around you as you die. You create a choice within you as to how you shall be, you enter into a dimension of choices. And when you know it is right, you have an element of choice over how, when and to whom you will be born.

In the death process if you enter into the state of clarity, you can redeem yourself, heal all your regrets, learn as to the whys and hows of your karmic legacy and inheritance and transform yourself.

Death is the great equalizer but in that you have choice and intention and focus.  Whatever you have done, you can heal in the process of death, and stay in the dimensions between the former life and the possibility of a new one, to enhance your inner evolution and well being.

calm and rush, silence and noise, clamour and quietude, dark and light,

to have and not to have,

these are the questions that are asked deep within our everyday selves and we are not normally conscious of the asking. Until, one, some or all of them come rushing out in a surprise guerilla assault of our fragile sense of self. These fuel most people’s search for meaning, comfort and stability.

But they are heat waves that come from the energy our everyday mind when it tries to make sense of our lives, selves and the world.

To move beyond becoming influenced by the rise and fall of all of these, we need to understand that we can let go of trying to make sense of it, and allow the natural sense to make sense of us.

Yes, we need to let go of the searching when fueled by all of these things that I have listed and allow the natural sense within us to show us that there is no search.

Because you are the journey and the destination and you have already arrived, it is just, that at some point in your journey through Life, you forgot. Its like meeting someone from years ago, and you can’t quite place their face or name, but you know that you know them from somewhere.

The natural sense within can show you that beneath the thrum of all of these experiences that I mentioned earlier is a great simplicity, and it is constant and yet as you experience it, it is renewed and so are you.

There will be no more bliss or boredom, but contentment and a knowing of the great laugh that resounds in the universe, and you will taste joy in everything and everyone.

Beyond Bliss, beyond boredom, you will find yourself and like a long lost lover rush to embrace yourself in the experience of the ever constant divine.

Can you ask yourself and find an answer?

There is no quick answer, only a slow one that evolves as you experience your evolution through the challenges of life .

Happiness comes and goes, but its sweetness is a reminder, that beneath the delights of happiness exists a greater joy and contentment that shows us all, the ‘being’ , within the human..

Happiness improves our health and conscious, but the media has hijacked it, turning it into something ‘aspirational’ like a fashion item or latest gizmo, happiness is for us to see beyond ourselves and to be thankful for the life we can make from the life we have.

Happiness is also a choice, both a belief, as an act of faith and a psychological state that shifts our consciousness.

How do we find happiness?

We need to look within for that is where its foundation lies,

and without, not in things, but in our relationships to people,

the natural world and the place we stand in,

as we express who we think we are.

Happiness is trust, a trust in the goodness of life, people and ones Self.

If you can not trust in these, then happiness takes time to emerge into your daily activities and thinking.

Happiness is waiting for you to claim it as your own.

and of the person who is unafraid of the connection

with the varied experiences of Life.

In a world where people are born unequal,

gentleness has a greater impact than the biggest fanfare.

Gentleness is the opportunity of communication

and is the first step in true intimacy,

of the self, of your inner consciousness and with another.

Gentleness comes about when we listen to the interdependence within ourselves.

When we take the vow of the sacred marriage

between the dark and the light that rumbles through our everyday mind.

When we give up dogma, prejudice and set ideas,

burn away habits back to their original inspiration,

gentleness waits to be experienced.

Gentleness will come when invited.

It is not cautious but has spiritual courtesy.

If you want to experience gentleness

do not be afraid of the love that is revealed

to you in the experience of gentleness.

When the world goes mad and rowdy,

when people became overblown and pollute the world with their lack of care,

when hope seems to evaporate,

gentleness will still be with you.

Gentleness overcomes all things.

It creates renewal and rejuvenation of the heart.

To become gentle and to accept it with you

awakens the impulse within you to embrace all things with out fear.

trust is healing when offered, understood and received,

trust is complete.

It takes trust to receive trust, and trust to enter into the act of trust.

If you can trust regardless of what other people do or believe, you can change your world and the world around you.

Trust is more than faith, it is understanding that is wordless and continuous and comes from Love.

Trust is the great act of courtesy from one person to another.

When you trust you create all good things and heal negativity.

True trust can never be broken for it is a naturally arising quality, and comes as when it should.

Trust is an expression of our evolution as a species and directs us to sanity, authenticity and peace.
