An Offering from Hafiz...

I
Have
Learned
So much from God
That I can no longer
Call
Myself

A Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim,
A Buddhist, a Jew.

The Truth has shared so much of Itself
With me

That I can no longer call myself
A man, a woman, an angel,
Or even pure
Soul.

Love has
Befriended Hafiz so completely
It has turned to ash
And freed
Me

Of every concept and image
My mind has ever known.

Excerpts from our recent Online Meeting

Caroline led our meeting which touched on several topics....Please enjoy these excerpts...


Relationships
We can look practically at how we can really Be in relationships in a loving and real wayOne example: My relationship with my children. When I keep my emotional center clear and positive, the triad leads to a higher and stronger bond with them, clearing lower centers, letting go of judgment,  criticism, instinctive I's about others, etc. This allows the soul a clearer path to invite the State of Love. (C)


Love 
Love is like a beautiful balm cushion that allows the machine to detach from the lower. It is a magic state between worlds where we can jump safely into the arms of the unknown and be known to one another.  It allows "Thy will to be done." (C)

Yesterday we had a meeting on the Heart.  I realized how the heart is part of many sacred triads as a connection of body and soul, Soul and spirit, Man and God, and if we place Love in any triad, magic happens; relationships are transformed, and states are elevated. It is like the main alchemical ingredient in all. If I pray and place love of God in my prayer, If I speak with my children and always remember love… if I listen to someone's “I's” and remember my love for them, we both enter another dimension. It is a sacred triad when Love is present. (F)

This pre Raphaelite painting is called, "Love Among the Ruins." To echo: Love is the part of the triad that can transform and regenerate. Love, if present even in ruin, difficulty, sacrifice.....keeps us safely in the moment, sweetly in God's arms. (E)


Connection
It is  a beautiful verification that our desire to be together, and share this sacred space, this moment in time, attracts something higher and we are blessed with tasting spirit and loving each other in new ways. My heart is embracing all of you,  wherever you are. WE are One.
