As my life continues to unfold, I find myself working on breathing, recognizing each breath – the in and the out. Coming into form and out again. Sometimes in the middle of the night I wake, usually after a dream that one day may be recounted elsewhere, and just lie there breathing quietly, slowly, my mind lost in ananda. Perhaps not lost, but maybe found. My thoughts of late reflect the lessons of dharmakaya. For it is a choice we make as to what to feel and what to believe to be true. Life is joy, life is love, and we do not have to live in the past, nor relive the sins of the fathers or the mothers. Enjoy your being as it is, not how it isn’t – that is true wisdom. Heed these words, they are not to be wasted – or ignored, that is what the voice within says.
Most ego structures are built around self-gratification or self-punishment. The ego fears not having enough self-love and yet not having enough divine love as well. One must learn to let go of whatever pain one clings to in order to know thyself and to truly know thyself is to love thyself. You have to find the love to forgive – to forgive everyone who has done you perceived harm, neglect, or brought you misery. You have to forgive to get out of that barred crib of yours, because ultimately you are only forgiving yourself as the creator of your own doing. Take that with you to the great beyond. The egoic drives and things will fall into place, as they should – then you can depart this world with joy. You cannot change all things, even though you are all things.
So the voice says…
