Instantaneously Shattered

 

All stories, no matter how big or small, have no power in the presence of light. They are instantaneously shattered and the truth of reality is revealed as nothing more than the here and now. Lisa

Stepping Outside Your Stories

Lisa making a new friend on our daily walk

“All levels of consciousness are available to you when you step outside your stories”
Glenda Green from Online Study of Keys of Jeshua
 

Lisa has been here with me as we are developing programs to assist others in stepping outside of stories and expanding beyond the blocks of limiting beliefs.    It is our experience that it is extremely valuable to  be supported by others that are able to help “catch” the old stories, and gently encourage one to step beyond.   In stepping beyond the old stories new structures can be created to accommodate the true inner being.
 

We encourage you to recognize and make space around your limiting beliefs, stories and patterns.
One of the ways of doing this by being very aware of how you are feeling...
moment to moment.

Joyous Journey

Kate and Lisa dancing

“The main event isn’t the destination; it’s my joyous journey.”
“You did not come forth seeking assignments to complete.  You came forth for reason to flow, and to love and enjoy life.”

Even though you will return home at the end of any vacation, the idea of your holiday is not to complete it as quickly as possible so that you can check it off of your list.  The idea of your vacation-and of this life experience-is to have a joyous experience.
Abraham-Hicks from the Well-Being Cards
 

Two of my daughters have been here to help me celebrate my 70th birthday.  What a magnificent time we are having eating, dancing, swimming, praying, and remembering fun times together.  

Please remember that life is to be FUN!

Moving Out of Fantasy and Into Balance

In slowing down into awareness, we begin to see the insanity and the compulsion of not living in the moment. In not being present, we loose connection to healthy feelings that act as an inner guidance system.

Once we loose our connection to our inner guidance system there is a disconnect which allows the creation of an identity that relates to a conceptual collective reality. Living a conceptual collective reality depletes us and distorts our choices and actions.

When depleted, we fall into a mechanical existence which lives out the fantasy of separation. From there, it takes a strong, yet fluid, practice to come back into balance and to recognize when we are lost in the illusion.

As we slow down it is possible to bring into focus the places that fantasy has taken hold, and realize these fantasies are not anchored in sustenance, which in turn allows for the dropping into the core for true nourishment to be received.

Once the individual is able to relax back into a fluid state of being, the illusion of separation is resolved. Consciousness can than reflect the moment as it simply is.

Peace…is our natural state.
 

Drop in Soften Melt Let go Allow Move into the light of being. Lisa

Through my meditations I am realizing that I experience myself through a universal and collective consciousness that in every moment is communicating with me and actively creating my reality.  I never move outside of this conscious field…I only mutate into different states of mind.  The power of this conscious field is that it projects a stream of living form onto what I would call “this moment”.  It is changing itself every moment based on my individual desires and beliefs.

It is happening now.     

The reason miracles are possible is because we live in a completely fluid consciousness that is never fixed, and is renewing itself every single moment.  Anything is possible… but without the “I” nothing would be experienced or brought into form.  We as creators of this reality call forth in every moment that which we have chosen (on some level) to experience.

Anything is possible.

It is only a concept to think that one is separate from the world, when all is created as an extension of ones own consciousness. It is impossible to be separate.  Only concepts can create the effect of separation.

Living in concept is living an illusion.

The source of being wants to fulfill all of its intentions, desires and wishes.  All encounters are encounters with self, fulfilling its desires through exchanges with people, places and things.   The individual is the finite-ness that is co-creating reality with the infinite Self.

ALL IS SELF AND ALL IS NOW.

Learn to be present so the living love of Source can be felt and acknowledged as the sacred intelligence behind all that is.

Why Meditate?

From LISA
 

Why meditate?   To open the doorway in order to cultivate witness. Why cultivate the witness?   To recognize the space beyond and between thoughts as truly being Self.  Why recognize Self?    In seeing the Self, the natural process of awakening happens and therefore unconsciousness (bondage) becomes conscious (wisdom).

As light illuminates our life it attracts people, situations, and events that further the discovery of Truth, and our sense of separation dissolves.   As consciousness expands and opens, life simply becomes a reflection of Self in all forms. The invisible becomes more real than the visible.  The natural movement of the true Self is unification, like all rivers flow to the One Great Ocean.  This is natural and takes no effort.  Like swimming down stream an awakened life will effortlessly heal our perceptions of fragmentation, and lead us into wholeness.

Those who have meditated before us have already opened the collective unconscious to the vast Self.  It is only our belief that we have to work hard to get to Self; quite the opposite, we have to fully surrender to what is already here.  It is opened and available.  It is here now. The space only needs to be recognized, and in the recognition the process is set into motion and life takes itself back into its own divine hands. It then becomes clear that the aspect called the individual is a point in the experience, and does not have an existence outside of source. Then we as One are free. “Heaven on Earth”.  
  
So, wherever you are in this moment simply notice and watch. Allow the invisible to bring up to the forefront that which is here, and let all else fade and drop.  Don’t push, don’t think.  Just allow and let go.  It is this simple.  Enjoy.

Creating Union

From Lisa
 

One of my many pathways into Self is trekking barefoot down river beds. So sweet the feeling of the smooth and wet rocks, dirt pebble bottoms, and knowing that the next leap will be supported by yet another stone.    I love finding soft curvy big boulders that I can crevice my body comfortably into, and rest deep.  Sometimes I have to scale the edge of the creek and swing from tree to tree like (almost)Tarzan because the river becomes a deep pool.  And some times I let go and allow my self to fall down into the water below.  When I am in nature I enter it and allow it to enter me. It becomes a mutual effort of the elements supporting me as I give my presence to it. Slowly I merge.   I am always delighted to find myself a part of the landscape.   I am no longer an outsider; I have merged with the environment.   The moment IS my skin and eyes, nothing is separate and all is alive in me.  All that I labeled as wind, sounds, and color become a living emergence that is happening as me. My mind has stopped and I become nature.  
  
Union is entered through being present, slowing down, listening, relaxing and letting go.  In union there is alchemy that creates a shift in our consciousness that allows one to be the experience of Oneness.    Each and every encounter is an opportunity, but to the degree we are in fear we hold this union apart.  What do you love? Where do you enjoy enough so  the possibility of union can reveal itself?   Find it and be it!  Get messy, interact, exchange, and let it penetrate you so life may become itself.

Never Forget This!

Lisa's beautiful dog Willy who loves unconditionally

When you meet anyone
Remember it is a Holy Encounter
As you see him you will see yourself
As you treat him you will treat yourself
As you think of him
You will think of yourself
Never forget this, for in him
you will find yourself , or lose yourself.
from A Course In Miracles

Many years ago a loved one had this quote from ACIM artistically mounted in a beautiful frame as a gift for me.  Today Lisa and I were reminded and inspired to send this quote and its energy out to you.  As we move forth into claiming peace for ourselves and on the planet this quote can remind us of our Unity and Oneness.
 

Today as you are confronted with anything that tempts you to separate, remember this quote.  Enjoy the Holy Encounter and find yourself!

Blessings~~~~~~Lisa and Cynthia

Traversing Life

I am quiet sure for the last few years I have been traversing through my mid-life crises/change/awakening.   The stages to me are interesting and becoming more and more clear.  Mostly, I am not interested in the material and content of my mind.   For me it is getting to the bottom, beyond the thoughts and watching so all may be drained. In this process I am cultivating my awareness, and being disentangled from the business of my mind.  With this awareness, silence is taking reign and spaciousness is becoming the ground of my being.   I am understanding what it means to be “in the world, but not of it”.    
 

Without the constant flow of the conditioned mind chatter I am free and authentic, not depleted, in fear, or in constant anxiety.”

“There might come a time in our lives when all seems to be stripped away, and the new is not yet recognized.  It is a time when the seed, that is not yet seen, is planted and the Divine Self is cleaning house, and making home.  Making contact with the Self awakens the unified mind and our knowing of our connection to all things.   The only way we can truly experience this union, is to move beyond the conditioned mind which then allows the unified mind to effortlessly shine through.  All challenges are an opportunity and an asking for turning our focus within, and activating this seed of awakening.   

 

The doorway is the NOW, and being with whatever is present in the now.  Take the lead by surrendering and letting go to “what is”, for “what is”, is the divine impulse of our True Self. This is truly our deepest calling.
