The Experience You Define...

Lives, existences, are but series of briefest moments, experiences ever unfolding, creating the endless story, stories being told; how those lives, existences, briefest moments of experience are experienced is your choice, your LOVE story to tell; remember always however, you are not defined by the experience, the LOVE story being told, the experience, the LOVE story being told is defined by you.

just LOVE...

Remembering You Can Soar...

For all their imaginings of Godhood, most live lives far from their divinity, huddling, shivering in the shadows of their fear, far away from light of the LOVE they are, afraid to step into what was once known, but now forgotten, unknown; letting go the fear of falling is the first step to remembering that you once could soar.

just LOVE...

LOVE Picks No Sides in War

Looking out over the battlefield observing, the enlightened being in LOVE remembered, having accepted the truth that there is only one, picks no side in war, for she knows all sides she innately, eternally is and already too long she smiles from the infinite depth of soul, "With herself has she been conflicted." Yes, she mused her spirit in bliss, "The oneness that is LOVE picks no side in war."

just LOVE...

"The stench of the trail of Ego in our History. It is ego — ego, the fountain cry, origin, sole source of war." ~ George Meredith

To Know LOVE...

To know LOVE, is to move beyond the finite realm of impossibility and into the courageous experience of never ending wonder.

just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

"Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility; for it thinks all things lawful for itself, and all things possible." ~ Thomas A Kempis

The Choice; Barbarian or Angel...

Now that we know we can choose and have remembered what the choices are, it is time to choose our experience of eternal life born this newly rediscovered wisdom to be one of LOVE in grace, over our eons ancient choice made out ignorance and or stupidity of love in fear; we can soar through eternity, as soul form angels or continue to crawl on bellies, bumbling about like barbaric oafs.
just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

“The spirit of a man is constructed out of his choices.” ~ Irvin D. Yalom, When Nietzsche Wept

The Age of LOVE and Wisdom...

When we remember that our want of being right about something we believe, is not nearly as important as our need to know truth about everything, we will have moved from the age fear and ignorance, to one of LOVE and wisdom.

just LOVE…
Kip Baldwin

"Whosoever wishes to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details.
Knowledge is not intelligence.
In searching for the truth be ready for the unexpected.
Change alone is unchanging.
The same road goes both up and down.
The beginning of a circle is also its end.
Not I, but the world says it: all is one.
And yet everything comes in season.”
~ Heraklietos of Ephesos

Disguised as Mother...

This body, this life, this LOVE, I am not, nor will I ever be, for this or any body, this or any life, this or any LOVE, this or any me/we, is innately God/Infinity.

The divine rainbow prism pyramid, the holy trinity of; infinite information - the raw formless data from which all creation takes shape, infinite energy - the supreme creative consciousness that shapes the formless data into creation, infinite force - the binding attracting undeniable intention of LOVE to manifest creation so that God/Infinity may experience itself.

God/Infinity infinitely dreaming/dreamt the infinite abstract that was, into the infinite creation that is; all stories, all lies, all truths, all illusions of the sublime divine mind's brilliantly beautiful designs.

To LOVE myself/ourselves is to LOVE God/Infinity; for God/Infiniity is all that is and I/we are but blessed figments of her imagination, given freewill to forget and pretend, to play in the her sandbox of infinite space/time, that me/we are other; that me/we, this body, this life, this LOVE are for infinite moments real.

There is no me/we, there is only God/Infinity, experiencing herself, disguised as Mother giving birth to the unending unimaginably fantastical opus, that is infinite creation...

just LOVE...

Empathetic Tears...

Report after report of children, animals, nature, the very soul of innocence, divinity, grace itself, abused, tortured, maimed, murdered; the young enlightened women, spirit free, weeps. Tears stream down rose cheeks, collecting in pools of sorrow, into which it seems she may fall and drown. An ancient sage, her teacher, from the sacred place in the woods approaches and lifts her chin gently to look into his wise kind eyes and asks, "Why do you weep my child, have you forgot all that you have come again to know." The women whose face radiates a sublime purity that would makes even Angels green with envy, stares back at the sage with a deep empathetic intention to match his own and answers, "Oh no my beloved mentor, I have not forgot the truth of LOVE I have remembered. I know that it is all that is real, source; all else is creator's creation, infinite illusion. The tears that flow are not for me, but for those who suffer because they still believe this to be real, having yet to choose to remember to see and the pools my tears form are not for me in which to fall and drown, but for those who come in my dreams, asking to have their souls cleansed of the self cast spell of vanity and forgetting, that they too, with the truth of LOVE remembered, may again be free."

just LOVE...

How We Are Meant to BE?

The now middle aged man, coming rapidly upon his fiftieth year of imagining, stumbled groggily to the bathroom, wiping the dawn's dewy sleep from his eyes, laying his hands on the cool marble that surrounded his wash basin, he leaned forward, splashing brisk water on his cheeks and with a sun warmed towel patting them dry; his face just inches from the mirror, reading each line on his face, the stories of his life captured in each tiny wrinkle and just as he was about to ask himself the same questions he has been asking morning after morning, year after year, for as long as cared or dared remember "Who am I? Why am I? What am I?" He thought, "no, this time I will ask the questions differently." So instead of, "Who am I? Why am I? What am I?" he asked, "Who are you? Why are you? What are you?" and much to his great shock his reflection answered back, "Ask me not for ultimate answers to the illusion of our infinite beingness, for there are none. Ask me instead, 'How are we meant to be?' And I will show you the absolute way; the way that is LOVE" At that moment the man's reflection reached out through the looking glass and took the man by the hand, guiding him gently into mirror that was rippling like mercury and with that the man and his reflection walked off into the endless dream, the path now clear and known; the answers he had for so long sought, left laying along with his ego, on the cool marble counter beside the wash basin, of no more importance or consequence than the wet cloth they lay beside.

Change, like LOVE...

Change, like LOVE, is inevitable, unquestionable, unstoppable; it is the page turning, the story unfolding, the unknown becoming known, the victors falling to defeat; change my friends is upon us, like the seasons, leaves brown, red, gold, floating from trees, grounded turning to dust, dust buried beneath the snow that has fallen from cold gray winter skies, snow melting in warm spring rain, flowers wake to bloom, rain evaporates under the smiling rays of a brilliant glowing summer sun; change is coming, like the tide and the best we can do now is find a good board and ride the wave till it breaks on the shore of the new page that has turned; yes change, like LOVE, is inevitable, unquestionable, unstoppable, so we must come to embrace the change that is, just as we must come to embrace the LOVE we are...

just LOVE...

"For either or both ways all minds are always,
Morning and noon and night, sleeping and waking,
Summer and winter, always always changing..." ~ James Henry, "Love," 1855 December 26th

Profound Truths...

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt/FDR once shared this profound truth, to inspire humanity's collective consciousness from being devoured by its shadow's gaping maw, "The only thing to fear is fear itself" and now I share the most profound truth of all, to inspire humankind to light's all encompassing embrace, the only thing to LOVE is LOVE itself.

The Wisdom of the Feminine Divine...

In the ignorance of the male ego, the belief, is that life survives and wins through fear and competition; while within the wisdom of the feminine divine, it is an eternal known, that life thrives and prospers with LOVE and collaboration.

just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

"As this era of masculine dominance comes to an end and a feminine understanding of life’s wholeness is included, we are beginning to experience a different world in which physical, mental, and spiritual well-being are interdependent. We see the signs of this in the new age movement. But the new age movement is often limited by its focus on individual well-being. Our real concern is the well-being of the planet and the whole of humanity. Central to this is the understanding that the physical world cannot be healed from a solely physical perspective, but requires a shift to an attitude that contains a multi-dimensional approach." ~ Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee

Master Of LOVE...

The one who is a master of LOVE's secret, wants for nothing in return, for the only reward they seek is the happiness of their beloved; the master has remembered that all Infinity is their beloved, to whom they are betrothed for eternity.

just LOVE...

Fallen From Grace...

To fall from grace, is to veer from the path of LOVE.

just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

“I have had to experience so much stupidity, so many vices, so much error, so much nausea, disillusionment and sorrow, just in order to become a child again and begin anew. I had to experience despair, I had to sink to the greatest mental depths, to thoughts of suicide, in order to experience grace.” ~ Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha

Manifesting Hell...

Hell - by any description or definition - is the last place on Earth or in Heaven almost anyone would ever want to be or even visit, so why then are we, the human species, doing our damnable damned damnedest, to make the Heaven that is Earth fit those descriptions and definitions conjured of Hell; LOVE can be pain or pleasure, how our experience it is always ours to choose.

just LOVE...

The Singular Moment...

There is in fact no time, only a singular beginningless, endless moment

There is in truth no matter, only Infinity and LOVE dreaming the dream that is limitless creation.

Of Heart of Awareness...

I feel the heart with its every beat, was placed in the core of our being, as a gentle reminder from soul of how precious the awareness of our experience of life and LOVE.

just LOVE...

“Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.” ~ Eckhart Tolle

The Ties of Fear that Bind...

LOVE untethers the humble spirit, from the ties of vain, fearful, flesh that binds.

LOVE Murders Ego...

LOVE is the death of ego, as in LOVE there is no I.

Of LOVE and Happiness...

My greatest happiness is when in the stillness and silence, aware of only breath, I remember and experience the innate and absolute oneness that is LOVE; LOVE is to boundless happiness, as water is to life.

just LOVE...

Soul's LOVE of Life...

The moment we cease confusing our spirit's, our soul's LOVE of life, with our ego's irrational and illogical fear of losing our body, we will ascend to levels of consciousness and beingness far beyond our wildest ability, now, to imagine.

just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

Stuck in Doldrums...

Right now we are and have long been just lost sailors stuck in doldrums, floating aimlessly, jury rigging our way across the ocean of Infinity, but on the horizon LOVE is the lighthouse beacon forever guiding us home and that is all any of us are truly seeking, home, wholeness, to be complete, one with LOVE and Infinity once more; to reach that destination we will sail for eternity...

just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

“What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are not able to cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves? This is the most important of all voyages of discovery, and without it, all the rest are not only useless, but disastrous...” ~ Thomas Merton

Looking For Heaven...

LOVE awakens us to the truth that Heaven is not a place, some tomorrow to ascend to, but right here, right now, this and every moment; should we choose to dream and be it.

The question is why would we ever choose to experience being anything other than paradise, when it is always just a simple choice, a tiny remembering of the truth away?

just LOVE...

Vatican to Capitalism...

He walked the famed strip of Vegas engulfed, drowning, feeling imprisoned by its flashing, blinking, glittering facades, temples to the Gods who falsely promise of instant wealth, communions and baptisms of cash held round black jack and poker tables or round the wheel of roulette or shooting in the pits crap. Wafers of the saviors flesh replaced by plastic chips and his blood, the wine, devilishly transmuted to cheap bourbon, cheaper vodka and rancid, cigarette smoke infused beer, to further blind the already desperate and morally bankrupt. Surrounded by fake teeth smiling, phony breasts bouncing, screaming out from vomit and urine stained sidewalks, lies of fulfillment packaged as lust, greed and gluttony, he thought, "What a perfect Mecca, a fitting Vatican for capitalism's hollow dreams and promises, The worship of matter and flesh, before LOVE and spirit". With that thought, a wave of deepest depression washed over him, but then came that familiar soothing silent voice that was always there to guide him through these moments of sorrowful doubt, "For one to truly remember and become once more all that LOVE is, one must stop worshiping at the altars of all that one is not."
just LOVE...
Kip Baldwin

First the Choice to BE...

Until we first as individuals and then as a collective decide how we want to be in LOVE, we can have no idea how to do that which is needed for LOVE to be how we chose it to be, as no choice or decision of how to be in LOVE, will have been made.

For how could we have an understanding of the doing needed to be that which has not yet been chosen?

just LOVE...

All Fies Are Cast...

Remember there are infinite others forms in creation to experience, both of matter and not, outside the infinite experiences in humanoid form we are currently choosing to have and none of them ultimately are in our control, as in the absolutes that are Infinity and LOVE all dies are cast. So To give ourselves entirely to LOVE and Infinity, we must let go our illusion of control; by letting go our illusion of control we let go that any illusion we choose to experience is real...
returning to ego-less spirit once more.
just LOVE...

“But love is much like a dam: if you allow a tiny crack to form through which only a trickle of water can pass, that trickle will quickly bring down the whole structure, and soon no one will be able to control the force of the current. For when those walls come down, then love takes over, and it no longer matters what is possible or impossible; it doesn't even matter whether we can keep the loved one at our side. To love is to lose control.” ~ Paulo Coelho
