Pure consciousness


I am always shown several possibilities so that I don't know what's going to happen.  It keeps me in the present moment.  I have to be able to live without hanging on to anything.  I have to be able to not seek the familiar but be here as pure consciousness without expectations, without familiarity.  I have to bring the unknown into each moment.  Opposites also show up so that I know what is in my heart.

It happens to me all the time where I get dragged through the mud, where I have to give up everything, where only this moment exists. 

My daughter went back to the US.  I have to stay here until I get the ok to go back to the US also.

Want what you have


I often wondered why I had to come back here, why I had to move into my ex's apartment.    He is a hoarder; stuff everywhere, barely room to walk.  If I don't want people to see me in this mess, if I prefer another place over this one because I am ashamed of it than I am hiding.  Preferences keep me stuck.  My surroundings don't define who I am.

You can't move on until you want what you have, want it so badly that you burst, you ache for what you have.  That's why I had to come back here.  I had to come full circle.   All I see is beauty.   This is the most incredible place on the planet.  I love it here.  I don't want to be anywhere else.

My passion is this moment.  Fully occupying the space I am in.  Don't fragment yourself by wishing things away or wishing things were different.
 
We get to balance out whatever is wrong with this planet by giving it love.

Die already, don't let the mind decide what's next

Lulu and Sabine

Never reach for the next moment.

The mind doesn't know anything, yet pretends to be the master of everything.   The mind is ignorant and you put it on the throne of your life, you made it your master, and you are its slave.  

The mind with its neediness and worries is incapable of seeing beauty and abundance.   It  can't see anything real.

Planning is a function of the mind.  When you can't look beyond the mind you are always planning and worrying about the future and you will waste your energy because you will always give in to your mind's fears.  

Without the mind's interference you can just Be, the observer of all things.  When you don't plan you will lose illusion.  You will never lose what is real.   In each moment let go of everything you know about anything.

No illusions allowed in the new world


Live doesn't require any thinking only relaxing into this moment, breathing fully.  When I have managed my breath the next step shows up.

I always have more than what I need.  My mind will tell me otherwise, but I am not listening.  With every experience I tune out my mind more and more.  The mind is a liar, it doesn't have a correct representation of what's going on.

If you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich.  (Tao Te Ching, translated by S. Mitchell)

People are tired and weary of their senseless struggles, but we cannot take any illusions with us into the new world.  We are the freedom fighters by experiencing and transmuting the horrors that have taken place over the ages.  Its like sorting through piles of debris, only its not a physical pile.  By feeling the energies they are being transmuted, there is no doing required.  Any acting upon them will only prolong them.  We are the ones who get to experience all the fears and there is no one who will save us.  We have to walk through them.

Wild Horses


People are acting on their fears instead of observing.  They are driven by their minds.  They don't understand that you have to let go of everything continually, never holding onto anything.  But they keep holding on so that the next moment will look the same as the moment before and that the future will turn out the way they planned.

My mind is like a wild horse throwing off everything that was put on me by the people at my job.  I joined their world of illusion because they cannot comprehend my world for it is inaccessible to the mind.  I became one of them.   And now I am free again.  I quit my sales job.  

I was there 4 weeks and already the managers had visions that I was going to make them wealthy.  Their minds were projecting a future that included me and all the sales I was going to make for them.  That's what happens when you aren't present, their minds filled in the blanks with a future that doesn't exist.  And now it's up to me to explain to them why I am leaving such a bright future behind.  They won't be able to comprehend what I have to say, because if they could their lives would reflect that.

It's time to move on.

The Portal Jumper



Only this moment is real.  The rest is fantasy.  Being Still will speed you up faster than a bullet.  Being Still will turn you into a Portal Jumper.
