The seeds of personal and social change are found in the roughest times, the most barren soil, as society becomes squeezed by cyclical financial collapse due to greed, laxity and short term thinking, it becomes out of step with the natural cycles of the planet-when this happens the man made structures of the world-whether they be ideas, organisations or structures collapse, in order that what is made by man finds balance with nature. If you seek the seeds of change look at your relationship with the natural world, psychologically, spiritually, humanly. See, discover what the seeds are.

when the world around seems too much

look inwards

slightly

for there is solitude within the crush

of noisy thoughts, emotions and unresolved imaginings

whatever pain that you know

look beneath it

for there is solitude

for what is solitude?

it is the communication of all your doubts with your inner love

your wisdom with your breath

your worries fears and anguish soothed

by listening to your inner voice

which in solitude

speaks

Your

inner

world

spins

slowly

on

the axis of

your attachments

each rotation

closes,

or opens a view

into your

Self

see how attachment

makes the mist

that your call

your life

good, bad,

inbetween

all rotate

on

attachment

In uncertain times you need to know what is necesary for your emotional and spiritual growth so that you can build both your vitality and integrity, thereby empowering your self-discipline. As things change rapidly around you you need to look at the qualities of your emotional strength and resilience and improve those areas that are in need of growth. In times such as these, have money, wealth or secured resources is not enough, having mental clarity, emotional balance, good health and psychological resilience are those invaluable tools that will enable you to know true stability and enduring prosperity, for we think prosperity is linked to wealth and money, it has being made to be like this since the late 18th century, but this model is flimsy: true prosperity comes from knowing who you are and what you can do with what you have when everyone else has lost their balance, money or previous lifestyle  or is having less, for in the case of human growth, individually and socially, less is more, if you have the clarity to know and express it.

to love

and to understand love

you need

to love the life you have

regardless of its circumstance

to love

to love the life you have

is the bedrock

of all loving

no  matter

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

come to the fire

and cast away your doubts

burn all your troubles

so in the ash

you will find the jewel

you seek

come to the fire

blessing earth, wind, water

connecting

come to the fire

and know your inner flame

in the spark and  in the cinder

is the tinder of your growing soul

let the flames of knowing

rise up

and

illuminate

come to the fire, come to the fire

celebrate

who you truly are

things that make up all the building blocks of your life

are what they are

by changing your relationship to and with them

they too will change

and create a new cycle of being

if you want change in your life

be with what  ‘is’

and then by doing so

change

presents it itself

as opportunity

old forgotten things

whether they be wisdom or the ruins of cities past

find new ways to form themselves into the living mind-heart of humanity

old words spoken by fires under stars hang connected

each molecule with a hook of being

old forgotten things make themselves appear as if they were forgotten

so each generation

can find it for themselves

from ombu to skyscraper

to small blue wild flowers

from old stained leather to the finger tips of a new born

hang connected

each molecule with a hook of being

listen carefully you can hear each one singing

‘ the obvious is found in the unseen’
