The title of this blog post has metaphorical meaning associated with it.  Basically, it asserts that one has to get rid of all of the “stuff,” be it in form or in consciousness, in order to get to the truth of one’s destination.  But, in actuality, the destination is kind of an “un” place.  They used to market 7 up as the “uncola.”  Hey, how about “7 steps to the Temple of Light”?… but let’s let the meaning of all these metaphors offer direction to a higher place…  Deep down inside, we each know what may need to be shed, or even the opposite (accentuate), in order to know or realize, through one’s expression and experience that which constitutes the truth of “I AM.”
 

I can’t bring anything with me to that place, because this is where the truth of everything is already present!  And I would say that this place is not really a destination but it’s actually the portal, through a co-created atmosphere and subsequent relationship, of oneness.   It’s more like a living loop (the eye of the needle).  Being in, penetrating through the living loop, or being as the receptacle of the loop; characterizes the ever-existing opportunity of relationship.  It’s the unified expression of wholeness and sacredness of communion, without obstruction, with that which is invisible.

These statements have tended to bring up much within a person’s mind and heart.  Many are taught to serve a One that most religions have distorted the truth about.  There have been a plethora of convoluted and contradictory messages that have gone forth.
 

We look out and see a world with people starving.  And while there are some reasons for such outworking that call to the responsibility of the individual, there are also other factors, influences, cycles and pulsations held within the creative process.
 

Look at world hunger and the general suffering that has been present in the human experience, inclusively.  Do you want to know how it all could change, while slightly improving, in one day?  What if a day were declared, at the world level, where everyone that could; would reach out and find someone whom they did not know to assist, to feed, to care for in just the simplest and most basic ways?  Can you imagine the corporate world taking a day off for such an outworking?  This one little act IN ONE DAY could change the world forever!  I wrote a book manuscript that I hope to one day have published that was entitled “Taken With A Grain Of Salt.”  And, within this manuscript is the story of a woman who put it all on the line as she corralled the big business dogs in her community to go out into the cracks of society to really try to make a difference.  It’s very interesting what occurred in the experience of the big dogs (the guys who were there to be “the answer”)!  You will have to contact me to learn more about that or you could always offer to buy a copy of my book!
 

Now, back to this “one miracle day” scenario that I described above…  Would or could other challenges be born through such outworking?  Of course they could and probably would – but that doesn’t matter when people are beginning to actually start thinking about really helping – really making a difference.  A thought that often comes to mind – because this fear is present in the mass consciousness is this: “well, what about those who are just trying to take advantage of others?  I don’t want to give them anything!”  The answer to that can come through the steadfast consistency of more and more people that are committed to doing the right thing.  As we remove the walls, love begins to rule the roost once again.  Eventually, the measuring tools become obsolete, while allowing people’s spirits to be At-One with the Creator!  We can collectively allow and support our individual and collective evolution to be one of Grace in expression!

I found myself chuckling a few minutes ago while listening to a Service being offered by my dear friend Alan Hammond.  Toward the end of the Service, Alan mentioned that he walks to the post office on a daily basis and that he finds himself interacting with others on his walk by waiving at people and so on and that this interaction equaled a large percentage of his social life.  The reason that I found myself chuckling was because I feel kind of the same way, these days.  While I do not find myself walking to the post office as Alan does, I do find that my socializing experiences have vastly decreased in recent years.  I just don’t find myself looking for all of the outer adventures that I used to.  Now, it is the quality of the moment that means so much more than the quantity or the stimulating factors that I once became almost a junkie of.  If I tried to live then (say back a few years or so) as I do now, I probably would have had an experience where I could have said that “I was bored to death!”  Today, however, I have experienced a tremendous shift right down to the core of my “Being.”  I feel that I need so much less from the world than I once did.  There is richness in Spirit that occupies and dominates my experiential reservoir.  While once I could have accurately described my impetus as acquisition oriented, or even with that of having an adventurous experiential acquisition focused objective, I find myself now just feeling fine Being present with perspective.  Living with perspective has me tuned into life through the truth of my “Being.”  I believe that this is a relatively new experience for a human to have.  Or, perhaps, it’s the oldest experience made new!  In any case, everything has changed.
 

While there is a realization of the massive chaotic state that has been existing in the world – in my world – in the world at large, there is also the realization that a form based perception is illusive and really doesn’t serve creatively at all.  So, on such a true and learned basis, I can allow these capacities of which I am blessed with to acknowledge the golden bowl and silver cord that do indeed reflect the truth of my presence.  Does one need to become a monk to understand this and begin to really know it?  I would say that the answer may be yes to that, in the inner sense, but not necessarily in the outer sense.  But, hey guys, “The Monk Lives Well!”

I wrote something fairly recently about the human/angelic role and its vibrational mechanics.  But, today, a new message (a new vision) is coming in.  And along with this vision is an image that reflects a different relationship than I had described before.
 

It has been inferred that man was born or created to be at the “crossover point.”  This well describes what man and woman were designed to be in relation to the heaven (invisible) and the earth (visible).  And an image of this energetic configuration comes into my consciousness; which reflects outworking in a way that I would have to describe as each person holding the entirety of the heaven and earth within them.  Thusly, our connection to that which is referred to as “above” us is “within” us.  It is in other places also, in other dimensions, etc., but the true relationship is not one of being separate, energetically speaking.  It’s almost like the same exact thing is happening and somewhere else; perhaps everywhere else.  Linear description and understanding becomes rather weak and without the ability of substantiation.  Something else, something greater, from the place of inner sensing and knowing is required.  From the standpoint of absolute connection (particularly energetically) there is no separation. That which has been often perceived as separation is actually an illusion.
 

Could the experience of sparation be why something called faith was introduced into life’s mix?  We actually receive and send, to and from, up and down, and in and out, simultaneously.  The mind has seemed to think that it has needed to take it all apart to try to figure it out, and then try to control the creative process somehow.  However, nothing creative occurs by virtue of people trying to control anything.  Eventually, we may discover that all we are to do is “repose in the nothing” as we let the invisible manifest from that perfect space, radiating love from one’s still and whole host of Being!

Hey, do you want to celebrate?  And the question comes back – what’s the occasion?  It seems that for most people, if they cannot rationalize a reason to celebrate and be joyous, they feel that celebrating is inappropriate.  Some actually feel guilty celebrating.  But think for a moment about the very spirit of joy and celebration.  Aren’t joy and celebration the positive components whereby the greatest work is actually done?
 

By setting earthly goals, and only celebrating upon their fruition, the real goal – the heavenly goals (if you will) are put in a secondary seat.  How can I love the Creator with all of me – my mind, heart and spirit if I’m awaiting something from creation in order to be joyous and celebratory?
 

With joy, and through the spirit of heart giving and sharing celebration, we create a most heavenly atmosphere.  This is what the Master taught the world through His living expression.  And through such expression is the way in which mastery can begin to be known here so that the earth is a new Earth.  Joy is the expression of love.  And love is expressed through joy!  Joy allows the good feeling through creative expression in all things, allowing every process to be a creative process.

How many have been or are concerned with such questions?  Many have looked out there and seen people that they don’t think very much of from a moralistic, or some other, viewpoint and they start thinking that there isn’t very much justice here on earth.  This seems to promote an individual to start trying to point themselves towards a justification for the living process.  And after a life of equating this and that, while looking for a form of some kind of justice, many have reduced their consciousness to holding onto a heaven-less experience through their earthly lives.  There can be no experience of Heaven being at hand, on such basis.
 

The real question is – can I find myself offering so completely, through the present moment, that I experience completeness through the singular truth of my expression of the offering and its subsequent generation?  This, I feel, is the earthly/heavenly formula, in reality, for knowing Heaven in the now!

Hmmm, what a curious consideration that is!  The part that I find most ironic is that a man whom was called Master, The Christ, Rabbi, Jesu and Jeshuah, reportedly, said that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!  And, of course, “at hand” means present now, or in the now!  So, essentially, one cannot really go there.  However, one can “Be” there – because the opportunity is at hand!
 

There are many overlapping interpretations of many spiritually related insights that became convoluted through their interpretations.  For the most part, I feel that human nature has been continually looking for excuses for its existence through the hereafter beliefs that people have been more than urged to consider carefully.
 

The Master, reportedly, was too busy doing good works and speaking words of praise to glorify the Father who art in Heaven, through staying in the ever-creative present moment; than to be getting lost in the world.  Hmmm, there’s that word again – Heaven.  And Heaven is where?  At hand!  And so the Spirit of the Father and the Son is where?  I would say, at hand, also!
 

The mind of man has been playing tricks on itself and the rest of creation by virtue of almost continually pointing to another place and/or another time.  Well, that doesn’t match up to well with anything being at hand.  Interestingly enough, the truth of “at hand” requires that responsibility is taken for creating and letting the Heaven to be known through the truth of one’s experience.  The truth of what was or what will be is automatically integrated into the truth of “Being” present now – in every now – without trying to recreate anything.  In fact, it cannot be recreated because the true Heaven is at hand.  I cannot “Be” somewhere yesterday.  Nor can I “Be” somewhere tomorrow because tomorrow is not present.  Now is present!
 

There are a lot of reasons that people have created religions; which have not served mankind very well.  How could belief systems, that which invariably direct one’s consciousness to depart awareness of, and participation in, the present moment, ever serve God and creation (including God’s children)?  Look at the world that we have co-created heretofore.  There have been wars, struggling and expressions which have created false images with less than humble positions.  How is one actually demonstrating loving God, themselves or their brethren, on such a basis?  But the mind of man has gotten right in there and set up rationalizations to give, him and her, an illusionary way out.  In truth, no one has gotten out of anything.  Heretofore, the state and reality of cacophony has been inescapable.  In this sense, one could say for many people that Hell, or a hellacious experience, has been very much at hand!
 

Truly “Being” present may begin as a decision, but it only appears that way, as the true transformation begins in one’s experience.  Ultimately, and in actuality, the mind pulls away from the present moment through the decision making process and that says goodbye to Heaven.  However, truly “Being” seems to be experienced and expressed through just letting life unfold naturally.  That is a heavenly reality.  It becomes automatic as one relinquishes the agenda.
 

There seems to be something very natural about just “Being” present.  It seems that mankind maybe getting tired of the alternatives, just like a dog that finally gives up chasing their own tail!

On November 14^th, I posted a blog post where I described most of the women that I have had intimate relationships with in the course of my lifetime; as not having been very healthy mentally, emotionally or spiritually.  I don’t think that I was particularly healthy either, particularly during my younger adulthood.  But people grow and the women that I have had intimate relationships with have grown also, just as I have.  My first wife raised our children and she did a decent job of raising them.  I believe that both of our children are upstanding people that have a true foundation of strong values.  So, yes, baring perhaps a few personal issues, I would applaud her for the hard work and sacrifices that she made.  I will always be grateful that things turned out as well as they have with our children and their lives.
 

Next year, I may look back at who I was now and say – “Wow, I have learned and grown much since then.”  This is the nature of life.  It evolves and nothing remains the same – nothing at all.  We can be grateful that this is so.  As we each allow ourselves, and each other, to improve and to grow, the possibilities of such outworking are greater.  But we have these aspects of ourselves called feelings and feelings are only instruments that can help us keep it real as long as we don’t try and blame others for our feelings!  At times, things feel good and at times they don’t feel quite as good.  In fact, some experiences can feel quite the opposite of good.  And, yet, we have our course to travel with no real promises of anything on that course.  But we do have infinite possibilities and that is enough to be very grateful for.
 

Sometimes we equate possibility with the level of opportunity that is currently present. But we can also create new opportunities; while thusly creating new possibilities.  The view depends on one’s perception.  To live in the world with perspective, one must be able to see all things as having unlimited potential and possibility.  We can allow ourselves to see beyond everything, while allowing life’s invisible Source to be made manifest.
 

I am grateful for the people in my life that have played specific roles so that I might develop the ability of perspective.  I am in debt to many of the individuals that have played close roles in my life, but mostly I owe everything (my very life) to my Creator.

Oh, oh, who can give an answer to that question?   The answer to this question is experiential in nature.  Therefore one could assert that it is subjective.  And that often has “belief” written all over it.  But I’m going to take a stab at it answering this question, “What is the true purpose of mankind,” anyway!
 

From, seemingly, man has derived impetus from an invisible Source.  I, more than sense this impetus, in my personal experience, but that still doesn’t make the truth of that ever any more than experiential.  This, again, calls to the necessity of addressing Source, of communing with Source, via the present moment.  This pretty much renders a focused presence which is locked into the outworking of forms superfluous and not on target at all.  This is because the target is invisible.  The target is presence.  I won’t even say that the target is one particular presence because that begins to denote form.
 

It has been said that mankind has a hallowed purpose for Being.  That, assertion or understanding, however, while possibly very accurate, is descriptive of an experiential outworking which is form based.  Ideologically, through the hypothesis of potential stewardship ability, there have been sociological determinations relative to an individual’s expression.  The standards that society has used have continually changed because of focuses that have zeroed in on forms versus true Source; that which is invisible.
 

Our true purpose can only be discovered and known in the present moment through Being present available to Source.  Let all of the fancy words go, as we allow wisdom to be born through the silence of perfect peace and tranquility!

I’ve been listening to a few different songs, of late; melodies that express feelings that I know well in my heart.  The song, “Open Arms” by Journey is another one of those songs that passionately expresses what many or most have, and can, experience through relationship with life.
 

The phrase “Open Arms” is a nice and accurate description of what it means to be engaged through loving expression.  Yes we do, sometimes, open our arms as we receive another through loving embrace.  But our hearts are truly the part of us that needs to remain open so that the expression of love is known and experienced.
 

Through human translations, we have often restricted our loving embraces in accordance with romantic interpretations.  But so much of one’s experiential reality of love remains a mystery on that basis.  We don’t need to keep our passionate expression dormant awaiting some form of sociological permission or agreement.  True agreement is in Spirit and thusly doesn’t need any response from the earth in order to express love.  This is not saying that there it’s not important to work with the truth of the response which is actually present.  But from the standpoint of providing love from Source, that can remain an unwavering expression from One’s true Being!  This is living life through the expression of the truth of Love.  In reality, from the standpoint of Life and Spirit, that’s all that matters; that which characterizes the Creator!
