I Have Been...

I have been asking myself 

what is the practical understanding of refinement. 

And this meeting

and my work within this meeting 

has been showing me. 

I started the meeting outside feeding, 

feeling in essence 

as the sun is shining in the blue sky. 

But it wasn’t hydrogen 12. 

I could hear the music with my emotional thought. 

I love the music but how deep was it going? 

I had to start sacrificing the I’d 

which was and is not easy to do. 

The work of refinement 

is very grounded in a way, 

right here in this moment. 

So easy to lose sight of. 

I remember Ouspensky sharing 

that false personality 

is everything but your efforts. 

And refinement 

is about seeing more I sense. 

How much can I see in this moment?

At The Service of The Highest

The Merciful Knight - Edward Burne-Jones 1863

The nerves with their muscles serve

the tendons even as soldiers serve

their leaders, and the tendons serve the

common sense as the leaders their captain,

and this common sense serves the soul as

the captain serves his lord.

Leonardo Da Vinci -

Excerpt from his Notebooks

Hope And Faith...

Hope and faith are our greatest weapons. 

As long as we have them, 

everything is possible.

With hope and faith, 

we demand to be on another level - 

and it will never be denied us.

I Begin...

 

The Magical Moon

I begin to see more that every day 

is broken up into "Little Acts, or Scenes" 

and if something is difficult, 

I could say to myself 

"I Do this for God”, 

instead of giving into complaining, let’s say, 

and something magical 

always seems to occur in that attitude!

Went To A 1920's Huge Party...

 

Christina Ostrander-Larocque

Went to a 1920s huge party. 

Hundreds of people. 

All dressed up in a magnificent structure 

with columns and music and costumes. 

Had such an odd experience 

as if everyone was in a play 

getting ready for something. 

All these different colors, different ages, 

different faces all in one play.

Something in me just walked around 

and looked into people’s eyes, 

smiling as if they were so so dear to me. 

I fixed someone’s hair 

and she almost bit off my finger 

but then melted:) 

Then I touched an older man’s shoulder 

because he seemed so so nervous 

with his sex center and he melted. 

Many connections. 

And the heart just melted 

one after another after another. 

What is that? 

We are all one, 

we are all part of a play. 

We are all so so beautiful.
