The nature of light

Every morning I go for a walk with my dog into the forest-it is a wonderful quiet , peaceful time to commune with nature. These days we are so engulfed with the material world that we pass up so many opportunities to experience the energy and tranquility of Gaia. If one sees with the heart, not with the eyes then one realizes that everything is radiating different levels of light. Our radiant energy changes-this is the light that we spread from our over-soul or spirit or our light body. This energy waxes and wanes like the moon-at times we have to much, other times too little-in nature we are able to find the exact formula for balance, and in return-we balance that which balances us, thus it is a symbiotic relationship. All in creation is thus.

Once we learn to recognize and realize the levels of energy flowing through us , then this becomes second nature with practice, then one is able to control  its ebb and flow. This ebb and flow determines the levels of peace, joy, compassion, happiness, forgiveness, gratefulness, mercy and all other positive traits of spirit which expands the parameters of the soul. This is the nature of light. -also all the negative aspects of spirit-anger, hate, envy, frustration,  indifference, depression, apathy and all the other negative qualities of spirit which diminishes the parameters of soul.  This is the nature of darkness. Through the positive aspects we grow, through the negative aspects we stagnate.

So, we should strive to spend  as much time as possible within the borders of all that what engages spirit in a positive context. We should spend more time within the confines of the sounds and sights of nature that is filled with the beauty of light which replenishes the soul. It allows us to grow and propel us further along our path towards our final destination. In this modern age of materiality and technology it is easy to lose the way and follow the road of darkness.  Be conscious of every moment of life and walk on the path of light, which translates into love. For in three small words creation and our life`s purpose is explained- “Strive for love”, for we are “Love”.

Remember everything is in the process of constant change, nothing stays the same-each day is an opportunity to generate more light, even if yesterday was filled with darkness . A spark of light over comes a room full of darkness-so forget your darkness.

Dream and the dreamer

Promises, promises that I have not kept. What am I talking about? Well, in January I promised myself that I would write a blog two a month at least, and ot is almost June. So what on earth happened? My muse seemed to have wandered off, or perhaps got himself a new employer-however I am pleased to inform my readership that he is back. You maybe surprised that he is a male-as often one thinks of a muse as a female entity.

So, now that we have all this cleared up I am eager to hear his soft whisperings to my soul. Truth be told-he just reminds me of that what I already know, and inspires me to retrieve what is already present in my subconscious mind. He is the gate-keeper of what comes out from my higher self. He also advised me to make my blogs shorter, as according to him, many people do not have very long attention spans and they will get bored easily. Ok, noted.

We, humans keep changing every second in time-though I tend to agree with many of the “new age” philosophers that time is an illusion, non-existent. So if that is the case, what is change that we seem to perceive? I believe that it is the “awakening process” from the dream state of unknowing, into knowing, realizing that we are dreaming all into existence. This comes about with maturation of soul-as it transcends is earthly existence navigating towards its final destination of unity with whom I call God. Others may call it Creator or Universal Consciousness or just Nature of Existence-or perhaps have no specific name for it-just an Innate Knowing that we actually transcend time and space-and that we are in essence timeless.

We have always existed, do exist and always will forever exist. What we experience as this present life, is simply a dream-scape that our soul is dreaming. Life is all connected. It is our dream, not my dream as we are a communion of souls. Only one, single universal soul exists, of which each one of us is a tiny part-and it sole purpose of existence is expansion and experience.

Every fragment of our dream expands creation, and is a message-meaning that, every moment that we think that we are experiencing life is a vital part of the journey of the soul back to its source. Often we cannot see life`s purpose-we wonder we question, we are at awe of its mystery. However, it is all part of the “grand universal plan” of the Creator. Is it all predestined, preordained? Yes-the ending, but not the way.

Thus all souls, all living things, all that we see as non-living things are playing an integral part however small and inconsequential they may seem. All is a dance- forever growing, expanding, maturing none of this can take place without the fabric of creation. What we call life is the consciousness-the dream is the energy. As it is said in Hinduism; Shiva /Shakti interaction. We are the dream as well as the dreamer. All that is living is connected by the thread of life-that is the universal law-nothing ever ceases to exist.

Letter to a friend

Short letter to a friend, who had a question for me about a lost love-was it real or not. Not that I am an expert, but this is what my soul whispers.

Dear Mariah-You ask is it is it still love. Yes. It is all in the heart and soul. As with everything, we simply have the memories that live on within us. So, Mariah, nothing that was ever leaves us, they merely take a short trip till the next time. Souls come in and out of our lives at various points-they touch us in certain ways, in certain circumstances-for all meetings be it long or short all have a spiritual reason.

You see Mariah, the connection that you have had often is termed ”soul recognition” by a wonderful Irish spiritual philosopher called John O`Donohue. You see, we have different reasons or let`s say, connections to each other at a soul level. We have “twin souls”-that means that we have a connection of some soul mission that we have to accomplish together. Then we have “soul friends-“where we are connected because of some past event, some past lifetimes and we are of benefit in each others progress. Then we have “twin flames”-which are two parts of one “divine spark”. Now, Twin souls, soul friends we can have many, like a family-but twin flames only one in all eternity.

When God created souls-it was something like “the big bang”, God –the great Eternal Consciousness exploded and myriads of sparks burst into creation-each spark part of Divine Consciousness; part of God, almost like a very “cell” of the Creator. Each spark then broke into two-they are two parts of a whole. The mission of each soul is to find its other part and navigate back to its creator.

Now this takes numerous, at times thousands of lifetimes in fact-as there are many lessons that the soul has to learn-it has to be polished like a diamond on it journey back to “source”, it has to grow. There is no time in creation. Thus, sometimes we never come into contact with our counterpart in one life time at all-but at times we do. This is the gift of grace, a gift of pure love from God, allowing us to get a glimpse of our true mission, of our true nature thus giving us hope.

However, until all our other missions in creation is done-which is expanding God`s love, light, compassion, forgiveness, mercy, gratefulness-free of judgements, criticism, understanding of all towards every aspect of creation fully and with total acceptance –until that is done in all honesty and with a pure heart, till then we are marking time, and are stuck. Also in this process we ourselves, soul-wise expand further, thus in affect God grows, as we are part of God. Till then we just meet on and of with our “twin flame”. Once both our missions are done on earth then we navigate back to Source/ Universal Consciousness/God, then we join up with our twin-flame and become one and merge back into the heart of God/Divine Consciousness never to return to human life ever.

Now-one maybe 16, 36, 76 or a 106 years of age-for soul has no age-that one may recognize one`s twin flame. Thus God gives us hope, and it is sort of a glimpse of a panoramic scenery of the soul and its travels though many lifetimes, as it tries to navigates back to Him. Thus dear Mariah, the whole purpose of our existence is to find our twin flame-and join up eventually-and spread love and light in our wake-for without that we are anchored in the physical. The only way to break through is with love-and this love is called “agape” by the Greeks. It is not “eros”, erotic love, but a deep spiritual soul love for all of creation.

So dear Mariah, be happy that you have had a glimpse of your twin flame-you will meet up for sure-for your soul knows. But if it is merely strictly a physical, romantic attraction- if the latter exists then it is not your twin flame, maybe a twin soul-I have no idea only you can say. Our twin flames come in and out of our lives through many lifetimes, some meetings are great, some are very painful, however it does not mean they are not our twin flames-for it is all only existential time, as time is really an illusion. And problems of the soul needs to be worked out between each other before further continuing with our quest. Thus having said that-we all have much to look forward to—for we are all guaranteed a joining with our twin flames-blessings, love and light to you dear Mariah.

Keresztmami

My sweet, wonderful, beautiful aunt was buried today. My mother keeps referring to her sister with the adjective “poor” Olgi. I keep saying to her-it is poor us really. We are the one`s left with the pain and the tears and the loss. Yes, death is sad. Yes, death is release. Yes, death is  really to be celebrated. However that is a hard  for a human heart. One`s consolation is one`s faith, thus having one eases the burden and the pain. If it does not, then our faith is simply a projection, an illusion which we just try and believe. 

Even the strongest of faith often have a seed of doubt lingering within them-it is difficult no matter how pious one is to accept it fully. Probably only the saints have had that grace from God showered onto their soul. As Our Lord Jesus said –: "I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it would move. Nothing would be impossible." So, acceptance of death would hardly be a problem. Sadly, very few of us have faith the size of a mustard seed especially when we are touched by death.

Thus I say: “Immaculate Heart of Mary I place all my trust in You! " She makes all things happen. Rest in peace in the arms of God, my beloved Keresztmami, you live within us till we meet again. We love you so very much, may Our Lord light your way and may your travels be a joyous one.
Your loving niece-
Z

Blind dates

I think we fail to realize that the only thing that the human spirit needs is love.  It craves and wants to be love above all else . I t is a need like oxygen, without it we all will die-well we all die anyway, however at least getting there will feel better sharing all with an other soul.

All the entries that I am reading tells me that-and it has nothing to do with –looks,  age,  income,  social standing  or the myriads of  the other judgmental opinions we have about each other as humans, as  that often is really  the sin; which translated is -“missing the mark”- All that matters is that spark, that word or action  brings about and that which that turns everything on- the fire in the heart and the soul. So-in my culture we say-“every  sack with a hole  will  find its own patch”-we all will if we look hard enough-or willing enough to see deeper than the shallow physical-. For it is the mirage of the physical for which we so often miss the mark.

S0- my view forget all else simply listen to the whispers of the soul when you meet that other-blindly, be it online, on the phone  or in a dark restaurant; be open minded and see that we all have our foible, quirks and quarks and wonderful side as well. One never knows anything, nor where a way may lead....  Keep an open mind for fate, serendipity or synchronicity....above all-karma. Allow, allow, allow.

A contemplation

Contemplation time-
through heart and mind of Shakespeare....truly my very favourite piece ever.

The Young Ones

Yes –I have been in a very dark space the past year, and sleep escapes me most nights. Strange thoughts wander through the caverns of my mind.  The winds of change is hard to accept. My soul is so very heavy-I just want to escape from it. Just yesterday I was sitting behind those oak desks-writing with a fountain pen. Today life is filled with disillusionment and false promises-the shine is tarnished. 

Nothing is true what was promised. The world was filled with magic, hope and desire way back then. We would conquer the world-we would be different, we would be special, we would live forever, we would never grow old. I always believed that life would always be fun, a journey to be discovered, a mystery to unravel.  No obstacle, nor any challenge would impede the success that seemed to be within grasp. Fear and despair would never touch me. Pain nor heartache would never be in my vernacular-only the radiance of love. "Invincible" was the motto on my standard. Now that very standard lies among the ashes of my broken dreams.

Oh, how wrong I was. Remember the song of Cliff Richard: The young Ones-the lyrics buzzes around in my head on a loop. At the time when it was a hit, I distinctly remember thinking about the words-with my barely teenage brain, that time seemed so far away-in essence an impossible reality-I distinctly said to myself : “Never”.

And I sadly have to confess that I have far outrun the time of the words. “Never” has arrived full force-with unimaginable reality. "Never" shall we be  called the young ones again. 

And now what? Like the British shows title-I seem to be: " Waiting for God". Maybe? -Though He seems to have left the building....


The young ones,
Darling we're the young ones,
And young ones shouldn't be afraid.
To live, love
While the flame is strong,
For we won't be the young ones very long.
Tomorrow,
Why wait till tomorrow,
Tomorrow sometimes never comes.
Love, me,
There's a song to be sung
And the best time is to sing while we're young.
Once in every lifetime
Comes a love like this.
I need you and you need me.
Oh my darling can't you see.
Young dreams
Should be dreamed together,
Young hearts shouldn't be afraid.
And some day when the years have flown
Darling, this will teach the young ones of our own.
The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones
The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones.
