journey into the unknown


Namaste friends!

Greetings of love and peace on this beautiful Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse day!

i'd like to share some words in connection to today's maya calendar, which is about stepping into the unknown.  Perhaps these words can inspire you....let yourself go as you read them... 

***
Journey into the Unknown

Imagine a doorway appears before you in the cosmos.
Inscribed on the door is "Unknown"
You are in the Known...

You know this body, this mind, this heart.
You know this earth with its nourishment.
You know this breath and how it flows through your being.
You know every sound you hear in your environment.
You know your relationship to everyone and everything
which floats through your consciousness.
You know this universe with its laws of operation.
You know how to exist here, how to grow and evolve.

Yet still at the edge, there is this door marked "Unknown"
When you open it and pass through
all that is Known will be surrendered.
The mind tries to project what would be there;
'empty space', 'falling', 'void', 'freedom'...
But these are all Known-concepts,
None of which exist on the other side of this door.

If you wish to experience the Unknown
You must summon all your courage, just to approach the door.
To turn the handle, you release all you have created since birth to keep you safe.

It takes the strength of an exalted warrior to experience the unknown presence of a newborn!
Whisper the words "I am" as you tenuously open the door, and all disappears into the Unknown...

****

If you chose to go thru, be sure to let me know what you discover!

In love, purity & joy! xxxxxx

light connection meditation

Namaste dear friends!

Things are changing quickly on the planet now.  The shake-up to wake-up is intensifying in speed.  We are witnessing healing & growth in ourselves at a rapid pace...how many lifetimes' worth of experience and lessons do you already feel you've gained in *THIS* life, *THIS* decade, *THIS* year?  And it's a snowballing effect, the more we clear & heal in ourselves, the faster & bigger the next understanding is.  We are evolving towards total realization of our True nature at light speed!

Been feeling that have you?!  The 'coincidences', miracles, challenges, magical connections been strong lately?

So, this is what i want to share with you...the connection part.  i've been noticing that when the EFT group i studied with have a weekend workshop, *i* have a transformational weekend...except i'm in Nepal, not San Francisco & not intentionally doing anything.  Or a friend in Finland, unknown to me, leads a meditation group to balance heart & mind...and there i am on the same day making a conscious choice to follow my heart rather than mind.

Made me realize, that as one of us heals, *all* of us feel the change on some level.

Light Connection Meditation
Here's a meditation i channeled this morning, which i invite you to share...start by connecting with your friends...saying aloud the names of all the people you know who are consciously working to heal themselves, & live their life at their full potential - experiencing and sharing the Love they Truly are.  Feel the love & beauty each of these friends bring to your life.  Imagine your connection and love spreading & spanning the earth.  See & FEEL the globe illuminated like an electric grid.  A light-web wrapped around the planet.  

Then invite each of your friends to connect with all of *their* friends & loved ones who are also healing & cleaning themselves.  !!!BING!!!! the light connection intensifies!  Then connect to the living gurus... !!!BING!!!.  And connect each to our spirit friends guides, angels & helpers, deceased masters and an aura of energy wraps itself around the planet.  Feel all the realizations, illuminations, love & blessings flowing between us...cosmic messages passing from heart to heart, hand to hand, pure-mind to mind.

And from this place we can start to play!  In my meditation, i chose to bless the earth's water with unconditional love & a belief in miracles.  Then i channeled ALL the love i was feeling to Japan.  Imagining scientists having 'eureka' moments, government officials realizing & implementing solutions, & the people there experiencing waves of calm euphoria, as they understood the situation is going to be okay.

Using the love i was feeling, i practiced ho'oponopono with Japan.  Taking responsibility for my part in the situation there...the nuclear energy i've consumed, the negative thoughts over the years which contributed to the earthquake, global fear & tsunami.  Then repeating the 4 ho'oponopono phrases:
i'm sorry 
please forgive me
thank you
i love you
 
a bit more about Japan...
i'm so grateful to Japan for taking on this challenge.  i believe with its ancient, deep-rooted spirituality, coupled with its phenomenally intelligent, progressive minds, that Japan can lead the world to GREAT leaps in understanding.  And provide a template of how to deal with some of the global challenges we, as a world, may be facing these next years.  i invite you also to feel & believe the same...i see the emblem for Japan just now, as the mighty Phoenix...rising up from the fire which purifies. 
 
Let's chose to send Japan our love, strength, trust & belief in this moment...
go on...take a breath & send Japan some love (:

To each of you, i thank you for being part of (my) life.  For inspiring & sharing your healing with me & my friends...even if you don't realise that you are.

i love you!

ps if you think any one else would benefit from reading this email, please pass
it on.  or share some of your own realizations with your healing friends...this
is not the time to stay small...this is the time to share our hearts with ALL.
NOW is the time, don't be afraid to SHINE!

arrival in nepal (february 2011)

On the plane, i cried 3 times when i saw the horizon-filled himalayas...felt like old friends welcoming me. When i see these mountains i feel an abundance of faith & strength. Doubt vanishes like smoke rising from the flames of 'I AM'. They deliver me to presence and bring me to wordless tears, over & over. Just to be near them, to feel the awe of the Divine. Mighty. Triumphant. Aspired. Where aspiration takes a breath & says "i am enough, right here, right now. i need no more than this. Through this stillness & love, i am connected to every particle of the entire universe."

We share this world & i am honoured.

i went to stay in boudha. i got myself a really nice room, to help acclimatise back to the backpacker lifestyle. Last night I joined in with a candle light procession around the stupa. Hundreds of red robed monks, nuns & tibetans making koras/circles around the stupa, their faces illuminated by soft candles, many carrying pictures of the kamapa lama. i asked later what the procession was for & apparently the kamapa's in trouble with the indian government for tax fraud/evasion! The reason made the whole holy atmosphere seem strange in hindsight. It was a great welcoming experience.

Today i took a couple of tempo/minibus type things into durbar sq (and had a 20 min walk inbetween - lost but not caring!). i sat beneath a bodhi tree & small vishnu/buddha feet temple & drank masala chai from a glass. It's my favourite spot in kathmandu & world-reknowned 'happy place'. It felt good to be back, but i'm also wary of trying to revisit each of these spots sacred to me...there's a distance there, which is hard to explain. It's like i'm only trying to recreat something which was, rather than being open to what can be & what is. i feel somehow removed from the experience as i'm bringing too much past with me into the moment. It's a good thing for me to be aware of, as i begin to travel to places i visited before.

I keep whispering to myself "i'm in nepal" & i'm not sure if that makes it more real or surreal. We can travel so fast by plane, i feel more teleported! All this familiar life has been existing here simultaneously, whilst I've been in beijing, Scotland & the U.S. This seems hard to wrap my head around.

And so i can't guarantee that i'll continue to write a blog or notes about my journey. I tend to give up after a while putting such experiences into words. But if you read this & enjoyed it then drop me a couple of lines & it will show me that people are interested in reading about my experiences & perhaps it'll inspire me to continue writing!

the lotus journey

the lotus journey

with the morning sun
the lotus stretches open
to share her vibrant beauty
with all who care to see

and as the sun slips from the sky
she embraces herself
retreating loving in solitude
wrapped inside her sacred petals
to enjoy the splendour
of her silence and secrets

then as the moon and stars dance above
she remains as a bud
suspended in the unmanifest
and rests in rapture
knowing that,
in bloom all possibilities can grow
