Two Minds

Posted in Abraham Hicks, Field Center, Metaphysical, Neville, Rumi, Seth, Spirituality, tagged on June 27, 2009 | 4 Comments »

I had often felt the words: “the world is a mirror” sounded like another spiritual cliche and I would almost bristle at hearing it.  It’s one of those things I asked myself: what the hell does that mean?!
Now I have someone in my life that does appear to be a mirror of sorts.  Let’s call [...]

The Friend

Today,  I recognized
that the jewel-like beauty
is the Presence,

Our loving confusion
the glow in which
watery clay gets
brighter than fire,
the One we call the Friend.
I begged, “Is there a way into you, a ladder?”
“Your head is the ladder,
bring it down under your feet.”

The mind, this globe of awareness,
is a starry Universe that when you push off
with [...]

Sacred Guest

Posted in Abraham Hicks, Inspiration, Metaphysical, Mindfulness, Rumi, Spirituality, Thich Nhat Hanh on May 17, 2009 | 2 Comments »

“This being human is a guest house.  Every morning a new arrival.  A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor…” excerpt from the Guest House by Rumi
Such a beautiful expression Rumi makes here.  What if we treated everything that we experienced as a welcome guest?  What if we did [...]

Come close to me,
I will whisper in your ear
Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes
around in another form.
For there is so much More to this life
Than you now understand
Observe the wonders as they occur around you
Don’t claim them. Feel the artistry
moving through, and be silent
For the Truth has been Divinely Conceived
Deeply within each of [...]

Say I Am You

I am dust particles in sunlight
I am the round sun.
To the bits of dust I say, Stay.
To the sun, Keep moving.
I am morning mist,
and the breathing of evening.
I am wind in the top of a grove,
and surf on the cliff.
Mast, rudder, helmsman, and keel,
I am also the coral reef they founder on.
I am [...]

Day 7 Friendly Beautiful Peaceful

Posted in Abraham Hicks, Field Center, Happiness, Inspiration, Life, Mindfulness, Rumi, tagged , on March 16, 2009 | 1 Comment »

What is life like on Day 7 of my consciousness process regarding being mindful
towards what is friendly, beautiful, peaceful to self and others?
It’s a place where you write poetry
where you lose yourself inside this soft world
the outer and the inner
you fall in love
you forgive yourself for all the tiny judgments
of self that ever said you [...]

In The Arc Of Your Mallet

Posted in Inspiration, Life, Poetry, Rumi, Spirituality, tagged , on March 14, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Don’t go anywhere without me.
Let nothing happen in the sky apart from me,
or on the ground, in this world or that world,
without my being in its happening.
Vision, see nothing I don’t see.
Language, say nothing.
The way the night knows itself with the moon,
be that with me. Be the rose
nearest to the thorn that I am.
I want [...]

There Is A Field

Posted in Inspiration, Life, Poetry, Rumi, Spirituality, tagged on February 4, 2009 | 2 Comments »

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field.  I’ll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn’t make any sense.

Quietness ~ Rumi

Posted in Inspiration, Mindfulness, Poetry, Rumi, Spirituality on January 14, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

All day long I’ve been asking myself this question:
What would wholeness say?  I love asking the question, it seems to prompt a feeling of slipping my arms into the sleeves and cloak of wholeness.  And wholeness spoke quietly and tenderly just a few things to me:
You are a blessed being.
You are perfect just as you [...]
