“Above all else I want to see things differently…”
Quite naturally, as consequence of my commitment to “seeing~ above all else, I want to see things differently,” and I have become conscious of a consistent ‘loosening of my mind’s grip’. And through this practice, over many years now, I find myself asking, “Where is this my/personal mind now?”… Has it, indeed, disseminated itself into the sight itself?...
Ah, sight…. I feel so blessed by this miracle which is expressing my life. ~ It is a tenaciously subtle experience of consistency and honor of such significance and intimacy… How does one put into words the deep appreciation that re-identifies oneself.
The debt of gratitude to my brother for being the light which reflects myself/ Self and allows vision is one I gladly spend the rest my life repaying. It is my desire to be an expression of that gratitude in every encounter…
One simple idea, given over to willingness, that has offered so much; everything is different than it was before …because it is the same….As the lesson says…
Each seemingly separate thing, “…in itself is not important at all…yet what is by itself? And what “in itself” mean? You see a lot of separate things about you, which really means you are not seeing at all. You either see or not. When you have seen one thing differently, you will see all things differently. The light you will see in any one of them is the same light you will see in them all”…
Seeing becomes a very intimate experience with the light of Christ…
Sure, the body’s eyes apparently see all the same things/friends, situations, etc. in all the same places and the brain defines, gives meaning and assigns purpose. But somehow deep within the mind, we quit taking it seriously. Somewhere along the line, I quit looking at things with defining eyes but rather beyond…noticing the light illuming the perceived things, events, people…
Questioning of the reality of their separateness took hold in my mind, allowing me to notice more and more, the light of unity.
It follows naturally to lean back in wait and allow for that light to give definition and purpose to what I seeing... Things and situations and the entire world around me began to take on a feeling of unreality ~with only the light of import … The details of it were like overlays on overhead projector…
Developing the habit of engaging the Holy Spirit within my mind, asking, “What is the meaning of this? What is it for?” is become more natural than figuring it out or thinking I already know. (Don’t get me wrong, that habit is definitely still levying for position in my mind, it just feels more natural now to let go ~ to wait in stillness…then move from there)…
From the lesson’ “…You will not question what you have already defined. The purpose of these exercises is to ask questions and receive the answers….you are committing yourself to seeing.…You could, if fact, gain vision from just …, if you would withdraw all your own ideas from it, and look upon it with a completely open mind…hidden under all your ideas about it is its real purpose ~the purpose it shares with the universe…
You are therefore, really asking to see the purpose of the universe. ~And you are making a commitment … to let its purpose be revealed to you.” That is an unequivocal YES!
Please join me in the Yes to THE UNIVERSE, today…
AND SO IT IS…
