You could say "calmness" and "openness," but it's obviously more than that, as it has an intrinsically sacred quality."<br /><br />The complexity of (---) and (o)keeps increasing in my life for sure. First of all, this amazing sense of confidence has appeared within me. Whenever I go meditate and pray I know with absolute certainty that it is possible to enter a state of exaltation and Love, to realize the ever-present Communion that is taking place. This knowledge humbles me and fills me with gratitude, but there is so much more than that going on.<br /><br />Realizing that O is a mystery, that the Totality is ultimately unknowable, centers my awareness and fills me with awed surrender. But within that surrender to O and to my state of unknowing is beginning to emerge a realization that O wants me to know it way more than I thought possible, that O in some sense is ACHING for me to release my conditioned self and allow It to flow directly into me, illuminating and transfiguring this mind and vessel into an expression decidedly more conscious, loving, blissful, wise, expressive, creative, and downright funky than I already am. <br /><br />Since I know with unconditional certainty that O exists, is ever present in all that is taking place and yet is completely Beyond, It wants me to know It with clarity, confidence, affection, admiration, and consistency. In this way, I can be a beacon of Its Light wherever I go or no matter what I am doing because Communion is starting to shift into everyday activities, as if my body-mind has finally taken to the lessons. <br /><br />I liken my spiritual practice to someone learning a musical instrument. Once the chops have been learned and one starts playing from a place feeling and passion, then it becomes a higher expression. The pains of struggle are over with while trying to execute certain maneuvers and the soul can just shine. But inestead of rocking out on the electric guitar I am rocking out o the body-mind as a whole.Gazrielnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-46200864763188968212009-08-01T11:56:18.870-07:002009-08-01T11:56:18.870-07:00jwm -

Good heavens, I have missed you all. After lurking around a bit night, I broke my internet fast with this morning's post. I'm not kidding, it feels like I'm getting my eyeballs back, here. And I have the promised boatload of bs, and I'm gonna' start slingin' it sometime later on, on the wfb. In the meanwhile, for this one day I set my course for slack. No speed ahead.

One reason why leftists are so unspiritual (or demonically spiritual) is that they never take time off from trying to control other people's lives. That is the essence of their religion, in which they engage seven days a week.Gagdad Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14249005793605006679noreply@blogger.com
