A man came on the bus, and sat in front of me.
He had a tattoo on the back of his bold head, a slightly smiling Skull, very well made.
oh yes yes yes, it is all One! 🙂
The Desert strips me open, and teaches me.
I was thankful to be there within its Beauty.
Wind was blowing strong.
This time, I had unconsciously come with expectation of something “special” to happen, with a craving…
Nothing happened, then…
Desert flashed me with a picture of Snow….
Snow? Desert? Desert? Snow?
Black and White, Light, Light, Light…
Do not lead,
Surrender, Surrender…
Naked Feet on naked Sand
Nakedness
Essence.
I found Nothing, I found Plenty.
I think I was lucky when my old Friend died, because, for some reason, the ambulance came to get him first after two and half hours from the moment I entered his home.
There had been time for Friends to come, for us to say our last bye bye, to sing for him, wish him the best, and hold a circle. Time had enlarged, so we could do what we felt we needed to, shortly but effectively. Police were with us, and silently participated to what they called was “The most beautiful and touching “bye bye” they had ever experienced.
A couple of months ago , one of my Teachers died too. As I was talking to his wife, I told her I felt lucky and was very grateful for that “time”. She was chocked. They had had her husband in their house for two days, and, as she expressed “It was not even enough!”. The family and friends could have used more “time”.
In the “old days”, still in villages and other countries, many Dead are kept for a time in their home, so all who need can come, visit, honor them, and greet them for the last time. In Italy we keep them in the chapel for a while.
There is a little more “TIME” for the departure to be fully felt and understood from all who feel that is right for them to do. Time for prayers, for the psyche to adapt, for sorrow or gratitude to express and thereby heal, whether we believe or not in the “after Life”, or Death maybe was the best that could happen.
What to do, how to change, is it an issue? I do not know, but…
Generally we are robbed of TIME all around in our society.
And we need to take care , and not rob ourselves, or anybody else.
If “Effectiveness is the measure of Truth” (the Huna principles, Serge King) it is probably wiser and healthier to allow “TIME” ( for sorrow, in this case), than use lots of money AFTER to repair our Bodies and Souls, sick from repression and frustration.
Making Time is nothing but a choice, and choices we must do millions of every day.
There is an enquiry and an intention first, a focused decision, and it is a discipline after, or play, or pattern. If we believe it is worth it, we are going to do it.
Priorities are many, we each one know when we ask our Heart what is right for us to do.
In times like this, it is high priority to make room for (at least) a blessing to the Earth, a blessing to the Waters, and a blessing to Human kind and Earth Beings.
And some time for Spirit.
Every time we can.
Be with.
Many many years ago, I was initiated to Reiki, and lately, cleaning up in old papers, I found these long gone but never really forgotten, Principles. I like to share them with You.
One may find them a banality, but they are not, and I suppose one can use the ones one needs, according to who one is. I believe it is ok with the Reiki movement to share them as they are to a broader public, maybe it even is good publicity :), so thanx for that, Reiki People!
JUST FOR TODAY, I WILL LET GO OF ANGER.
JUST FOR TODAY, I WILL LET GO OF WORRY.
JUST FOR TODAY, I WILL GIVE THANKS FOR MY MANY BLESSINGS.
JUST FOR TODAY, I WILL DO MY WORK HONESTLY.
JUST FOR TODAY, I WILL BE KIND TO MY NEIGHBOR AND EVERY LIVING THING.
My dear Helpers, they are wonderful and wise: some of the things they say to me for my clients, can be both so “simple”, good reminders, or/and completely new and unthinkable. I like to share this one piece of simple wisdom with you.
Some time ago, I had a Mother with three children, man, and own work: obviously a busy lady. She felt she had not much room left for her own development as a person and as a woman, and she missed it.
Plenty of good and realistic advise was given to her, but she still wondered on how to deal with the reasonable amount of everyday’s activity and work at home: cleaning, cooking, shopping, and all that, as her husband himself was dealing with difficult personal issues, and therefore could only help a little.
My Helpers made her notice that there were many potential ways to deal with things. They counseled her on creating a new form for discipline: PLAY THROUGH WORK, or WORK as PLAY.
Of course , she had to figure out how to do that. But the lady got enthusiastic, og ja! she could definitively figure that out! Previously, in the same session, Helpers had told her she needs to play: one more play!:) She understood, and she liked it!
So, some of us complain and work, some of us are work addicts, some of us meditate by working, and some of us CAN PLAY!
For inspiration, through me, to You. Thanx, dear Helpers.
MAY OUR BEAUTY GROW. MAY EARTH AND ALL HER BEINGS HEAL. MAY PEACE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OURSELVES BE. AND THANKS FOR ALL THE MANY BLESSINGS AND GIFTS WE ALREADY HAVE RECEIVED.
INSPIRATION FOR WINTER SOLSTICE 2018
In traditions worldwide, the celebration of the procession of the year, of time, of the seasons, and of our Life, is celebrated on specific days, and in special ways. The Winter Solstice, in our part of the world, is connected with shortest Light, and deepest cold. We are in the North right now, according to most Medicine wheels, the place Clarity, Wisdom and Gratitude belong to. It also is a place of reflection/selfreflection, and choices. Light is little, Dark is long. From any extreme, the opposite is born. even when we suffer, our inner Light still shines. Things move, evolve. The Sun Light seems disappeared, still it is there, and the Sun will be back for us to Live. Let us look, and contemplate our Lives, and what is going on on our Planet. What choices do we have? What Powers do we have, and how do we use them? How do we use/misuse ourselves and our Earth? On the personal part we all need to take responsibility for, our Growth, our Deeds, our development. It is good time for planning now. And it is time to look at all the Gifts we everyday receive, and let go of Guilt for our mistakes, (and forgive others as much as we can 🙂 ). On the Planet part, it is really important each one of us to take responsibility and make right choices, for common good, each one in our own way, with our own preferences and possibilities. Now. Earth is suffering. Many of us are suffering. But there is still Consciousness and Light inside every Being. This Consciousness we may be able to contact. The Spirit of Earth, the Spirit of Water, the Spirit of Air, and the Spirit of Fire, of Rocks, Plants, Animals, and Human Beings. And of the Great Space out there. We need to remember that changes for better are possible, and there is something we may not see but maybe feel sometimes, Consciousness, Spirit, Light, Energy, God, whatever we like to call it, IT MAY BE THERE. This Energy responds, so Prayer is important, as important as the rest, political action, environmental care, and so on. Prayer can be done anytime, from anywhere, in any way, even we do not believe in it, we may try.
Good Solstice, and happy new year! 🙂 PS: and plant a Seed of Light, a hope, or take a waw in your Life.
The big Eagle did not show up,
I had a Sparrow visiting… 🙂
“Power” does not always show
as we believe” it should”,
Power not always
“needs” to be “shown” either…
And….
“Truth” does not always
“need” to be screamed…:)
“Necessity”shows when it is time
to “blast and make noise”,
and when that time comes,
it can be fun too…
I am who I am, my Heart is present and warm. My Being follows the Waves of Nature, of my Life, the thousand things one must do, and a little more. I retreat at times, often. I have many satisfactions, and many transformations, looking, looking for to Be, and to Become “quality”, Unity . To melt with Everything…to feel Spirit, Love and Compassion…
Pains and Doubt are there too, no superstar here, no fixed finished model, not all knowing. Maybe a little shy, a little quiet, certainly no media freak, no blasting and selling, no business lady…
In this period, according to the time of Nature, I am again and again looking deeper, opening the cuts of my Being and honestly trying to figure it out… much about Death, Death to the parts which do not serve me or anyone any longer. Deep deep Honesty, Sincerity, and Confessions. from me to me. Changes must be done, Movement necessary in some fields. Which means “available at times, not at all times”, but those “available” times are good and Fruitful! Because there is a Rhythm, there is a Breathe, and time to be still, rest and meditate.
Final recept for amazing Living? Total Happiness and Peace? I’ll explain it all, and change your Life forever, buy me buy me:)? No finished solutions by me yet, but support to become you, have a honest decent (and decent means good and straight) Life… I am good to give, and push others towards their Power, very good indeed…and in me there is lots of Wisdom, not because I call it, but because others do… And …No hiding here, no shit.
Why and to whom I am writing this to? To you who one day may read it…
Enough is enough…blah, blah, blah…
On the night of the Dead, I will drum to honor Ancestors and Beloved, and to help the Dead no one cares for , to move on… That starts now…
Tonight…
the Veil between “us” and “them”
will be thinner.
Our Ancestors, our Beloved,
our Roots which seem to be vanished
but are still there,
will be present.
The Dna and the “stories” we share(d) with them,
are part of the Treasure of our Life,
our experiences, our teachings, our weights and our lightnesses…
We remember them, honor them,
and share with them
a “piece” of Memory,
a “piece of Now”.
Tonight.
Blessing “horrible things and people”
(we all know what that means, for each one of us)
maybe the most difficult “exercise”
of Human Beings…
Compassion
is a challenge
but maybe we could try
and see
what effect
it creates?
Of course, it starts from judgement,
“good, bad…horrible”…
We often do not know “the story” behind
“clear enough” either…
(if we did it may be easier to at least understand)…
Let’s see what Jesus did:
He said: “May the ones who are free from sin (innocent)
throw the first stone”….
Sin? (Another judgement?)…
Who if any Humans are (really really) free from sin?
Children are…
for a short while,
and we love them.
She “was”, and she did her mission fine.
Her Presence quiet and strong, her words of Peace and Compassion.
AAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMM breathe in,
OOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM breathe out.
And White Flowers of Peace showering on our World.
The more doing some good for the World,
in any way,
the better the World becomes.
It is “easy”
once we know
that All is made of Energy.
Many years ago, a very dear, elegant and beautiful man, (whom I secretly call an Angel), reached my Heart and Mind with a deep and “simple” piece of Wisdom.
It came through a poem he had been writing…it is just a little part of it.
I am deeply thankful for this Wisdom Pearl, which helps me a lot when Life goes too fast, when I end up blaming myself not to be able to do more, and in many other occasions as well.
Here it comes…
BIT BY BIT, BIT BY BIT,
BIT BY BIT, BIT BY BIT…
BIT BY BIT, BIT BY BIT,
BIT BY BIT, BIT BY BIT…
SING it to yourself like a song,
it is pure Healing….:)
