welcome, welcome to day 42 of a season of peace, a sacred day of flow, honoring the peace pilgrimage we walk each moment and on a day such as this one, we begin in stillness where we dance our essence of love in a cosmic field of flow… waves of light vibrating, sparkling, radiating, expanding, dancing, connecting, bonding, awakening in great mystery’s web of shimmering light…

“The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed. It was the experience of mystery — even if mixed with fear — that engendered religion. A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, our perceptions of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty, which only in their most primitive forms are accessible to our minds: it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute true religiosity. In this sense, and only this sense, I am a deeply religious man… I am satisfied with the mystery of life’s eternity and with a knowledge, a sense, of the marvelous structure of existence — as well as the humble attempt to understand even a tiny portion of the Reason that manifests itself in nature.”

blessed be great rainbow mystery and may we all take joy in surrendering and softening into the divine flow of the oceanic sky of being trusting in the implicate order where every moment is sacred, a rhythmic dance of grace…

namaste…

We do not receive wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can make for us, which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world.  ~ Marcel Proust ~

today is a day of soulitude, a day of soul study, a day of listening to the silence… a day of radical presence, of being the new operating system programmed with a spacious consciousness of nowhere to go and nothing to do but simply wait patiently for the soul song to flow…

i’m in good company in this moment of eternity…  my old dolphin guides, Adolpho and Adelphi/Philo and Sophy, free and easy wanderers of the great beyond, come out to celebrate our ever widening circles of courageous souls letting go of caterpillar identity to dissolve in the cosmic stew reborn as imaginal cell open (organically present & emptied now) to the natural flow of oceanic consciousness…

these wise sages of liminal space, guides at the threshold whisper words of grace… “re-member, it is the impeded stream that sings” and so i venture with them to the stillpoint to listen… here i see grandmother spider dancing creation and weaving a new web of life, carbon turned into crystals of light, a thousand dancing diamonds twinkling in the night, imbuing the all with powerful sight of the world being breathed into life again, unfolding mystery of the knowledge within… here in great silence we listen deeply to our one cosmic heart, dancing the love song we are called now to impart…

come on over and sit by the waters with me and let’s journey together back into the cosmic womb, the dark sacred space of origin…. breathe in the flowing mother waters… feel the flowing waters, be flowing water…. now, breathe deeply in the rhythm of the waves diving deeper and deeper into the stillpoint… re-member who we really are – water -we are the eternal radiance…

now, blessing the waters within and without, breathe them in, feeling the radiance you are, an illuminated being of great heart… in this wellspring, water reminds us of our purpose, we are original source, creation creating creation in the belly of the earth where all rivers converge into one rainbow stream of radiance, one cosmic circle birthing the divine…

let’s sit here silently for awhile radically present in life’s flow, trusting in the beauty of pachamama and the blessings of  great mystery and the knowing of the true bottom line – all is well and all is well and all matter of things shall be well…

welcome, welcome to day 42 of a season of peace… today is another of my favorite moments in the cycle of life when we rest in the in between times moon, the rainbow moon who sings a song of transformation, of transmuting dark, threatening clouds of pain, into rainbow colored arcs of joy…

for the last four days as i lie still with grandmother in the river below the river, every day an inner blizzard has been consuming me, freezing me, keeping me still, silent and aching in every cell… tonight I awaken and it’s going on the midnight witching hour and the fever seems to have broken… i re-member the impeded stream sings and so i venture to the stillpoint to listen… and i see the great mother dancing creation weaving a new web of life, carbon turned into crystals of light, a thousand dancing diamonds twinkling in the night, imbuing the all with powerful sight of the inner and outer worlds being breathed into life again, unfolding the rainbow mystery of the knowing within… listening deeply to our one heart, sharing the love we are called to impart…

having lived so much of my life with physical pain as a constant companion, this creeping crud episode gives me an opportunity to be thankful for all the moments of health/wholeness that all too often can be taken for granted plus this great rest is a wonderful way to be closing out this season of winter soulstice, of sojourning in the desert of the heart…

may we all take joy in surrendering and softening into  divine flow of being where every moment is sacred, a rhythmic dance of grace…
