Ode to Anne Frank and Helen Keller; True Masters...

A true master of being the experience of LOVE finds in every misery no matter how great the choice for happiness, in every corruption no matter how broken the pieces of perfection, in every hate no matter how wounded the opportunity to heal, in every fear no matter how insurmountable the courage to rise above, for the true master of being the experience of LOVE, can see the divine beauty in everything, while the unenlightened walk in the man-made hideous blind -- Anne Frank, Helen Keller these were true masters of being the experience of LOVE.

The Beloved, through which LOVE Flows

The prideful ego exclaims; I am the lover, the source of LOVE!
Whilst the humble soul understands it is the beloved, through which LOVE flows...

“You often say ; I would give , but only to the deserving, The trees in your orchard say not so , nor the flocks in your pasture.
Surely he who is worthy to receive his days and nights is worthy of all else from you.
And he who has deserved to drink from the ocean of life deserves to fill his cup from your little stream. See first that you yourself deserve to be a giver , and an instrument of giving.
For in truth it is life that gives unto life-while you , who deem yourself a giver , is but a witness.” ~ Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

Sharing Passions of the Soul...

Why do I write, draw, cook, sing, what is driving my passion to create?

Inspired by LOVE, I create, so that I may muse, see, taste. hear, feel, sharing outside my body, outside my head, in every conceivable way, the sublime divine passions of my Soul, emanating with each beat of my heart...

Of Angels and Beasts...

Man seeks to rise above the lowly beast, their shadow in darkness always lurking, to heights of Angels in the light of Soul ever soaring. Never accepting they are the marriage of the experience of both; the perceived ideal of Angel, their pure innocence personified and the feared nightmare of beast, their mindless savagery embodied.

But the ideal of Angel is a fanciful dream and the fear of the beast a distorted reflection, as they to have forgotten that Angels often fall and beasts are in truth filled with grace. The lesson to which man must reawaken is this; in LOVE all are and is Divine -- all are and is perfectly flawed perfection.

So roar children of the cooling stardust and burning passion, roar the Lion's roar, whilst singing the hymn Angels, but always with joy, always in harmony, always in peace, always remembering you are one in LOVE...

“You are one thing only. You are a Divine Being. An all-powerful Creator. You are a Deity in jeans and a t-shirt, and within you dwells the infinite wisdom of the ages and the sacred creative force of All that is, will be and ever was.” ~ Anthon St. Maarten, Divine Living: The Essential Guide To Your True Destiny

Peaces Comes Through Understanding...

The peace and LOVE movement wasn't destroyed by deaths of Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King it surrendered, in their murders, all it was and in the vacuum of its absence the Neo Cons eagerly filled the void.

Peace cannot be achieved through fight, but neither can it be won by giving up.

Peace is made final by being unmovable in our understanding that violence only breeds more violence and that wisdom gained through compassion, the taking in the suffering and joys of others as our own, is weapon of the soul that will end all wars.

Peace is not found in our pain or our pleasure.

Peace is birthed from our understanding; from our understanding comes empathy, from our empathy comes compassion, from our compassion comes wisdom, from our wisdom comes peace and from our peace we can then see clearly the path of LOVE...

“I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.” ~ Helen Keller

We who have chosen, understanding, readying for the coming experience emerging, are slipping the bonds of our addiction to mortality; the gift of the flesh --

lesson learned; becoming one, again with the plurality of creation that combined is all --

choosing spirit in LOVE and bliss, once more, over the delusions, illusions of ecstasy, brought on by the blinding lust of matter --

memory returning of what it means to make LOVE; seeing, needing our lover's soul, not just their body --
if being for you now is complex and confusing then you do not yet understand, for when LOVE is understood how to be is simple and clear --

end the battle within and the warring without will cease; it is you manifesting the quandary that creates the quagmire --

understand?

Small as the Fleeting Moment...

Infinity is small as the tiniest fraction of a fleeting moment and large as all timeless eternity --
it is ever beyond the comprehension of all religions and sciences both those that have been dreamt and those yet to be dreamed --
it is where space and time are one and creation is but an abstract, chaotic, cacophoness thought of consciousness floating in an ocean infinite unorganized information; where all things are happening at once and not at all --
it is without answer, but it's answer is absolute --
and as all these words attempt in futility, to describe Infinity, so too they in futility attempt to describe LOVE --
and you may friends are so much less than you have doubted, yet so much greater than you are capable of imagining --
thrive now, live, LOVE life my brothers, sisters of all shapes and kinds and those who choose to be undefined, you are the infinite experience on the endless odyssey...

“We are Not Our thought , return to being in You and enjoy the Love that shared by the God(infinity).” ~ Sushil Singh

“There is a wide yawning black infinity. In every direction the extension is endless, the sensation of depth is overwhelming. And the darkness is immortal. Where light exists, it is pure, blazing, fierce; but light exists almost nowhere, and the blackness itself is also pure and blazing and fierce. But most of all, there is very nearly nothing in the dark; except for little bits here and there, often associated with the light, this infinite receptacle is empty.
This picture is strangely frightening. It should be familiar. It is our universe.
Even these stars, which seem so numerous, are, as sand, as dust, or less than dust, in the enormity of the space in which there is nothing. Nothing! We are not without empathetic terror when we open Pascal’s Pensées and read, 'I am the great silent spaces between worlds.'
[From an undated, handwritten piece of text from the early 1950s which Sagan wrote when he was an undergraduate at the University of Chicago]” ~ Carl Sagan

Rhythm of the One Star Nation...

The eternal rhythm of life and LOVE that vibrates throughout all infinite creation is the same beat that thumps within the chest of all mortal shells, as well.

Feel it, understand it, experience it; for observing that timeless rhythm is the key that unlocks the doors of perception that leads to home, abundance, happiness and peace.

Turn conscious attention, to the tribal pounding of the One Star Nation, with the Soul intention of again, to be a part.

Enough!

I was watching yet another commercial for yet another beyond bloody violent video game, followed by a commercial for the MMA where two men were bludgeoning one another senseless and then of course a commercial filled with the NFL'S hardest, most brutal hits and a thought erupted in my mind, propelled like molten lava from my heart, a crystal clear shard of wisdom, stabbing my brain.

The shard of wisdom was this; what manner of beings finds entertainment in brutalizing and torturing one another just for fun?

No other species of which I know.

Not even great white sharks or salt water crocodiles (two of most ravenous and ferocious predators of all and supposedly beasts of far less intelligence) hunt and prey upon one another and certainly not for play, but man does, behaving like a spoiled, rotten little boys who have forsaken their Mother; just for the bribe of more and more new toys.

This is what our much vaunted intelligence has given us the ability to manifest?

Really?

It is time we awoke, looked in the mirror and saw ourselves, as the barbaric sociopathic species we are..

It is time this madness of man-made of war and institutionalized fear ended; replaced again by the universal wisdom of the Mother, the life bearer, who gives only nurture and LOVE.

It is time the little boys the so called men, take off the short pants, put away their toys and become fathers once again, whose soul desire is to LOVE, protect and provide for the Mother and child.

Let us through away your things of hate and destruction, they only prove your vast insecurity, born of the knowing that you are not unique; in fact you are rendering yourself not only not special, but insignificant.

We celebrate and have become the things our nightmares are made of, the absurdity of it would be comical, if only it were not vileness made real.

Enough!

The Crossroads and the Mother...

The human species stands at a crossroads...

Down one path a dead end, a continuation of how now we are experiencing life; that is, as repression, ignorance, greed, chaos, perversion; the Mother suppressed and demonized

And down the other is the path that leads to infinite enlightenment, a remembering of how life may be experienced; that is, as freedom, wisdom, sacrifice, ritual, making LOVE; the Mother cherished and held sacred...

Threads In The Tapestry...

In lucid dream came to him, the Buddha and then the Christ, asking, "If for the moment between the moments may we reside in your heart?" Of course without hesitation he opened his heart wide and let them in; every cell in his body, every strand of DNA, now throbbed with their LOVE. He asked ever so humbly, "Why have you come to me?" In unison, they silently queried in response "Have you not a question for us?" He said, "Yes, yes, I need to know why must there be death?" Again in unison they silently in his heart answered, "There is the experience of illusion of death - you who are we - so that all may come to LOVE, cherish and hold sacred the experience of the illusion of being alive, for without the experience that life could be lost, how would one ever gain the understanding needed to serve their eternal purpose, that is to sacrifice all they are that life's process, creation's eternal tapestry may continue to be woven. So in the ultimate truth without death, there would be no life and the infinite tapestry itself would be unwoven and cease to be or more correctly would never have been woven at all."

With that the Christ and the Buddha dissipated from his heart, though of course, in fact, not gone entirely, for he, they, all are in the absolute of Infinity that is God, one.

He felt now satisfied, as he understood what should have been clear to him all along, "Yes, there was no experience of being alive without death, this was the circle of life, the wheel of being whole, the tapestry of Infinity being woven; the Soul's divine, blessed reason to be." But then he wondered to himself, "Why had that understanding not come sooner to him?" The answer that came to his mind was this; the reason for his blindness, his ignorance of this ultimate truth, was that human civilization, as the collective of humanity was now choosing to experience itself, was not helping to weave the tapestry, believing them somehow impossibly to be apart from that which they were and are innate."

He then mused on, "What happens to those beings, who do not choose to give themselves fully, completely to the weaving of the tapestry?" Came one last silent echo from the Buddha and the Christ in reply to this musing. "Those beings that do not come to understanding of purpose, by allowing their thread to be into the tapestry woven, will cease in the experience of creation to be; their strand removed, like a hanging thread from a sweater, that if not carefully cut, would threaten to unravel the entire garment. Not gone, but returned to the absolute oneness with Infinity. Until perhaps, in the abstract of the absolute one, they choose to be a strand woven and weaving into the tapestry on Infinity once more."

The Buddha and the Christ echo, then trailed off into the imaginable vastness of eternity...

Of LOVE and Intoxication...

Any being's experience, in body, in form of matter has an instinctual need driven by LOVE to become intoxicated; is not for the want to get out of one's head, but a reminder from the heart that there is no head to get out of. For what appears real is the hallucination and the high that seems hallucination is closer to LOVE's truth. And the further one moves from the truth of LOVE's matter-less source, slowly that occasional joyous instinctual reminder transforms, to the harsh ravenous insatiable want of addiction and or to insanity; the latter is the experience that humanity is now choosing to have...

The Home I Can't Yet Imagine...

As a young boy, an almost innocent child, the void called out to me and carried me to the edge of the universe; my known and familiar home. Then it turned my consciousness out to the boundless, border-less, black and my spirit, my soul was embraced by Infinity. Now more than ever I must remember and embrace back, the black, the unknown, Infinity's void, comprised of an absolute consciousness, an absolute LOVE (what most have come to define and know as God) sculpting what I/we experience as eternal creation. For it is calling me once again, but this time not just for fleeting glimpse, a brief visit, at the heart of her sublime, divine eternal, infinite majesty. No this time it is to invite me through the door, to cleanse the palette of my perception, welcoming me to my experience next, the evolution of the universal mind/body itself, of which I am a cell, a particle, a strand. And this that is coming, of which I am aware, will be my new home; in this moment I am homesick for place I have never been and can't even yet imagine.

The Mass of Condraction...

The mass of contradiction, the weight of hypocrisy is growing moment by moment exponentially, between what we thought made sense, what we think now makes sense and what we sense we are becoming, as the existing paradigm shifts, to a new experience beyond energy and matter, as the perceived foundation of the experience, to one of pure information, the foundational building blocks of all experiences; few if any can scarcely imagine what this new IS will be.

And when the mass of our contradictions, the weight of our hypocrisies are so great that it feels like the gravity of a black hole ripping apart your heart and mind, your consciousness screaming wake up, to the experience transforming around you, it is then we will begin to accept that all we thought we knew will make sense no more or ever again.

This is what our blessed awareness is for, we have been given the gift of being the witness bearer, to our own transcendence and when we finally again understand, when things again appear to make sense, our ascension to the new experience will be complete, we will be spirit, soul, one in LOVE.

But these my friends are just feeble words, scrawled meanderings, attempting to explainable in vain the now unexplainable, to know without real hope of now knowing what IS the IS to come, just as we cannot fathom in anyway the IS that was IS before.

Tempest of Hubris...

Lost to LOVE, tossed on the ocean of Infinity, in a ceaseless tempest of hubris, the ship called Fear, aboard which sails the species of ego, named man, again is sinking, only this time perhaps, it is to a depth so deep that once more it may not rise...

What, Why, Where, How... God?

I asked God; what are you?
God answered, "I am what is..."
I then asked God; what is?
God replied, "All that is, is what is and I am all that is..."
I next asked God; when did you begin?
God responded, "I didn't..."
I followed that by asking, "Where do you end?"
God said, "I don't..."
Lastly God I asked; why are you?
God joyfully told me gently this, "I am, all that it is, what, why, where and how, because of LOVE..."
God paused before sharing this final blessing, "And so are you..."
With that my questioning of God ended, my mind satisfied that I would always seek to know more, though never be able in except the slightest to comprehend, but now my heart understood and was full.
In LOVE, with minds remembering and hearts reawakening, we know and understand, creation's infinite illusion of matter are the eternal experiences of God embodied; I am God, you are God, we are God, all is God.
Note to readers: This explanation of God has nothing what so ever to do with the God limited by religious or scientific dogma.

Dreamers Dreaming...

As he lay in deep meditative state, the silent still eternal moment between the night asleep and the day awake, he became suddenly, acutely, aware, that with his every dream, his every thought, his every utterance, his every deed, he was authoring his story in LOVE and with that awareness he realized, until this moment the tale he had been being and experiencing had been weaving him, not him weaving the tale he was being and experiencing; he also understood now, this was true for the collective known as his fellow man that they too were the story being told, not the storytellers crafting their yarn; he also now understood that for him, for us all, to be able to return our happiness, our bliss, our peace, we must consciously choose - in this the book of infinite creation, the story of life's process ever unfolding - what happens in moment next, before what happens in moment next, happens instead first to us.

For we are were created to be the dreamers dreaming, not just the dreamers being dreamt...

Understanding LOVE With Your Heart...

Before you can come to know and understand life, LOVE or any other being, of any kind, you must first come to know and understand yourself.

You believe and know of life and LOVE with your head.

You find faith and understanding in life and LOVE with you heart.

The Sacred Responsiblity of the Steward...

The ultimate divine expression of LOVE is when one's most glorious joy, is awaking to one's instinctual need (if need be) to sacrifice all that one is, for all others, that life's process may thrive and prosper in happiness and peace. This is not to play the part of the martyr, but to be the role of steward, the most holy of purposes, the most sacred of responsibilities.

The Well of Bottomless Abundance...

The only way to manifest the illusion that the well of infinite abundance that is LOVE can appear to run dry, is for the intention of the experience to be sourced from selfishness and greed. The endless bounty, that is eternal creation squandered or worse yet hoarded; ceasing flow. But always, ultimately the bloated, gluttonous miser, misers choking, ready to burst, explode and the boundless gifts of God, Goddess, Great Spirit, Infinity is again equally distributed, life's process, cosmic balance restored, the universe beginning again; the truth of its bottomless abundance, replacing the illusion of the well run dry; scarcity.

Dissipating Shadows...

We all have shadows that we run or try to hide from, but this only strengthens them; making us feel as if they are real, that they are in truth what we are, they are not. To make our shadows fade and disappear we must face them and embrace them with all the light of our LOVE, in it they will dissipate like morning mist in the dawn; revealing themselves to have been only figments of our own imaginations, inside the infinite illusions that create eternal experience...

The Heart Percieves...

A tangled, tragic, dramatic, conspiracy is how our head perceives our experience of LOVE; a simple, madcap, romantic, comedy romp our heart... from perception is born intention, from intention comes manifestation. Our heads see what the body wants to see, our hearts feel what our spirit needs to feel; so while your head weeps for the lost moment in sorrow, your heart laughs eternally in joy...

From the pool of wisdom, at last, past their seemingly ever moment, humanity now thirstily drank and rose dawning light, peace, harmony, bliss, LOVE's ideal, to the Goddess they did give thanks; back, back, into the shadows, a nightmare memory, war, terror's whore, the ultimate wage of fear, in a doomed sunset, of our shared understanding remembered, it hastily, cowardly sank...

A Joyous Global LOVE Day!!!

The shift is underway, the experience transforming; there will be feelings of discomfort, disorientation, pointlessness, as there is with any stepping into the unknown, the process of being birthed anew; know you are not alone, all who are awake and aware are sharing these same feelings, so do not despair or fear, as you, as we return to flow, to rhythm, to harmony, to oneness with LOVE, with Creator, with Creation, with Infinity; be peace, be free, the Mother is embracing her newly reborn...

A BLESSED A JOYOUS GLOBAL LOVE DAY TO ALL!!!
