Dear Soul

Dear Soul,

You chose this earthly existence so you can work out your karma, experience new adventures, learn from your mistakes and take one step further along the road to ultimate freedom.
And somehow, here you are entagled in emotions and judgement just about everything and everyone, attached to this physical body and identifying yourself with this unsteady mind. 
You have become one with fear, you have tied yourself down and covered yourself with a dusty blanket just so that you don't feel that same pain you came to learn from and transcend. 
You use the illusion of feelings to escape responsibility and the fear of pain as an excuse to stay covered and hidden. 
And everytime you poke head out and take a glimpse of the light, you run back under your cozy blanket scared to look the very adversary you came to take command over in the eye. Yes, I am talking about the Ego, you have let this friend twist you around his little finger, wrap you in so many layers of illusion, you no longer have an idea what is out and what is in. 
How many more lifetimes are we going to waste listening to this foolish personality we have created? How many more lifetimes are we going to "try" to go beyond the illusions of the Ego?
How many more eons of time are we going to cower under an invisibility cloak cutting our own wings and chaining our own ankles, so we can convince ourswlves we can't fly?
Honestly, it is getting tiring!
The sword of truth lays in your hands, and you can cut through the fog of deception in the blink of the eye. 
The key to your cage is in your hands and only you can make the choice to open that door and fly out. 
It makes no sense to sit under your dark, heavy blanket and ask when the pain is going to stop, when you are the one making it real and you are the only one  who can stop it. 
You scream and fight and resist and try to escape.... The prison of the mind YOU Are allowing to exist, and the more you resist and the more you fight the more you breathe life into it. 
You have thrown away your own limitless power, kicked it in the corner and you allow this delusional human Ego to walk around terrorizing others and feed on their power, feeding its appetite that grows stronger and stronger every day and can never be satisfied simply because it is unreal. 
You are allowing the monster to exist, you are nourishing and growing it and then stomp your feet and grind your teeth that you are not in command.
Guess what, the time has come to throw off  the blanket, march into that corner and dust of that infinite power you are so afraid of. 
Harness the power of your free will and take command over the delusions of the Ego. 
Instead of letting your mind  run your rampant, take control and use it!
Use it to clean up the incredible  mess you have allowed Mother Earth to become!
Use it to share the love and compassion in that is in that enormous heart of yours, instead of creating competition and conflict all the time.
It is time.  
It is time to wake up in this dream and make this beautiful place our home. 
It is time to remember where you came from and what you came for. 
To create, to be with joy, to experience and to learn.  
You seem to have forgotten where you came from and who you are!  Dear soul, you are infinite light, and you come from the source of pure Love. 
You are pure Love, you are the place where there is no shadow and no doubt. You are the space where we all exist. You are one with everyone and everythhing, so all this petty competition and jealousy and separation are simply nonexistent. 
And whenever you find it hard to remember, I am here to remind you:You are Infinite Love!
Wake up, dust yourself off and get to work for we have much cleaning up and fixing up to do.
Put that beautiful mind to work and let's get going for we all want to make this beautiful planet our home. 

Endless Love,

Me

It's not a Sin

It's not a sin to love,
It's not a sin to open
A heart and hold it 
Beating in my palms
Especially if it's my own,
It's not a sin to sing
A song so ravishing 
And painful
It breaks the walls
Of separation,
It's not a sin to travel
To edges of the earth
And dance
In other's dreams
To beat the drums
Of consciousness
And wake another soul,
It's not a sin to yearn
For the fire of my home
A space so rich of sound
And color
We only lay our eyes upon
During our sacred journeys
Of the night,
It's not a sin to Be,
To be alone
To be in power
To command
To lead in battle
To sacrifice
To heal
It's not a sin to mourn
When leaving another heart
Until another time
Another space
While slowly waking
And getting ready 
For another day.

Pray with me

pray with me
allow me to sit
even if I don't belong
allow me to heal you
and in that healing to find my own.
open your heart 
and allow
softness to be your pillow
forgiveness the ground you lay on 
compassion your blanket,
Love the stary night above.
I sit with you
I pray
I open my heart 
so you can open yours
receive
without deserving
without asking
be the child 
you never allowed yourself to be
be with yourself and the other
be with the child  with the Mother.
don't regret the pain
for it is the darkness 
that made you seek the Light,
let go the resistance
it's the only shadow blocking the horizon
allow the connection
allow the power of the womb 
to find you
penetrate you
guide you to the Source...
that's where I will meet you

Project Sagittarius

With the  glorious sun moving into the fire sign of Sagittarius, the seeker of the truth I start a new  project, or rather a new practice.
This glyph of the Archer symbolizes the desire for direction, a higher purpose, and abundance. 
Sagittarius represents  our attempt to free ourselves from man's animal nature.

I start the practice of paying close attention to my actions and identifying what comes from the heart and what comes from the Ego.
And each time I make a note and remind myself how I could have acted or expressed myself differently.
It doesn't have to be drastic, one little thing each day. Could be as simple as smiling at someone who doesn't like me, or yielding the right of way down the train when I am in a rush, not eating the last cookie in the jar, or apologizing first.
Start knowing what comes from the heart and what comes from the mind and making a conscious choice each moment.
This is my practice, this is my prayer.
Feel free to join me and share your experience
It is the small steps that make the journey.

Temple

Habits, rituals, prayers.... we all like to build a safe space somewhere where we can retreat during the storms of life.
Sometimes we forget though, that the safest space is being with ourselves.
The most sacred temple is the body that carries us on this journey, each step is a prayer and the only candle we would ever need is the flame of our own heart.

Undress my soul

Standing by the fire
Undress my soul
So I can feel the flame
 on my naked skin
Purify
Melt the layers of ice
Collected through the years
Melt the fears
Flowing down my breasts
Uniting
With tears of surrender
Flowing a river
Down my legs and into the Earth
A river of passion
A river of acceptance
An ocean of compassion
Eternal pool of Light

Flow me home

Take off the invisibility cloak
Let it slither to the ground
I want to be seen
I want to be heard
Not for what I do
But for who I am

Open up the cage
I wanna fly with sky
Light and free
Greeting the sun 
In my arms each morning. 

Crack this shell open
The withered shell 
Around my heart
Old and grey
Hard as a stone
Let it fall to the ground
Sprouting a river
A river to flow me home

Open me
Gently and firmly
Let me see in my heart
Let me feel on my lips
Let me spiral in rapture
Blazing like falling star.
