The good, the bad and the ugly

We have created the norms and limitations of right and wrong, good and bad, the beautiful and the ugly because of cultural, socio-economic or emotional circumstances.
Above all we have created those labels because the mind needs duality to exist.
The mind can't distinguish beauty unless it sees ugliness, it can't understand love unless it dwells on hate, it can't explain joy unless it dissects pain.
The mind asks questions, seeks reasons, constantly resting on logic.
Yet, our spirit knows that there is no separation.
There is no good and bad and beautiful and ugly and right and wrong.
And as long as we dwell in this world of duality we can never know ourselves.
How can we understand our soul if we are constantly denying an integral part of ourselves we have deemed ugly or shamefull?
How can we ever know what we want when we are constantly repressing our desire as wrong?
To embrace our "dark" side is to become whole again. To finally come back home.
The only darkness comes from our ignorance. And our ignorance is simply our desire to avoid, to be blind to what is.
But remember, if we are closing our eyes to the ugliness we fail to see the beauty as well.
Take the time to explore those dusty,dark corners of our soul, without judgement or praise. Without prejudice and embrace all of us, the masculine and the feminine, the strength and the weakness, the joy and the pain, the dark and the light.
For darkness is only the absence of light. It has no existence on its own.
All of our fears, all of our anger and axieties are simply the places where we fail to look.
Once we shine the light in the darkness, once we accept and love all of ourselves, shadows can no longer reside in our soul.
We become whole, we integrate, we unite within and with the rest of the universe.
We return to the source beyond the duality, beyond the mind where everything just is.
Pure light, pure love.

Turn the world upside down

When we turn the world upside down,
When the in becomes out
and the pain becomes joy.
When darkness becomes light
and the sky falls down to cover the Earth.
When day becomes night
And bad is no longer evil.
Only then shall we walk in our truth.

Oppression

Oppression is the Hierophant's reminder that life is about liberation. Every form of oppression is an opportunity for liberation. To understand your oppression is to understand the freedom of yourself.
You cannot know freedom without oppression.
Oppression is always self- created. You create your own oppression through ignorance, through lack of self awareness. Free yourself from limitation and you will see yourself accurately. You are the universe.
Your spirit is limitless and free. Your negative mind, however, only sees your limitations.
Live in the radiance of your spirit and you will soar.

Connections

It is those random connections in our journey that have no agenda that perpetuate us inward and forward the most.
When we are not looking for validation, seeking approval, or asking for attention; when we are simply enjoying another souls' connection and allowing our own spirit to soar free and blissful we connect not only to another soul but also to our own.
We plug straight into the source and recharge.
And we are not only enjoying ourselves,
We are still working hard.
Without looking through the prismatic crystal of the ego, we come out of our patterns, look into those beautiful mirrors of our spirit and see the harsh truths we have been avoiding.
We learn and we recharge, reconstruct and transform, ready to go back to the challenge and see it with new eyes and put our heart and soul into the work we came to do.
So look around and see who are the souls who help you find the connection with yourself, make you go deeper than you have ever gone and let you explore deeper into your own soul....
Acknowledge them, be grateful and be loving... And most importantly be aware that you are most likely doing the same for them!

Namaste

Present

Have we ever truly felt the glorious sensation of inhabiting this marvelous body?
The tingling sensation underneath our skin, the rushing of the blood into our face, mother earth supporting our feet?
The beat of the heart and the neverending current of energy, carrying us back to infinity over and over again.
Have we ever felt our breath rhythmically falling and rising with the sensation of melting into the earth.
The feeling of liberation as we surrender to gravity just to realize we have always been free to fly?
Have we ever been so present that we feel the currents of our own power underneath and allowed ourselves to flow with it.
This incredible moment when mind and heart and soul align to give birth to our luminous being in one magical breath?
Have we felt it?

We spend a lifetime running away from this moment.... And when we unexpectedly find it we spend the rest of our lives longing to return to it.

Yet, this is our natural state, we just forgot how to be there

Let....

Let silence be your teacher.
Let Love be your guide.

Knowing that we are not alone

Knowing that we are not alone
Can take us further
Than a jug of water
Or a bagful of food.
Knowing
That we are not alone
That there are others
Walking this trechorous path with us
The feeling that we are not an outcast
Buy that there is a place
where we are welcome home
Is the food for the soul
The fuel that keeps us going
Knowing that we are not alone
We can keep on giving
Because the Love
Of our sisters and brothers
Is where we recharge
Where we find solace
And that resource
can never be exhausted
That Love is where we
Rest our broken hearts
And our weary souls
Knowing that we are not alone
We breathe out a sigh of relief
A space where
We can put our armor down
And let our souls be nourished
Knowing that we are not alone
We can go one step further
Than we ever thought possible...
