I am aware that the idea of ISnessless has been mentioned several times on different threads lately,this is great,somehow validates this here litle ole thread.
We arise out of that what IS albeit as a concept (thought/idea)within the absolute mind,
and find a task assigned to us,that of find yourself then find ME,and then BE that which IS?

We are but reflections and shadows groping about within a heavy and dense vechicle,
trying to somehow find our way back to that harmony and peace that deep within us we feel.
Through many lives and experiences we grow more sensitive to that inner monitor,the
conscience,or soul,we develop and have vague feelings of a higher self,there must be more than just this,we ponder!
It is when these feelings rise up from within the depth of our being that we begin to
make connections,see how things somehow all link up.We begin to question our selves,
who are we?What are we?Where the hell are we?This is when at times "awakenings" occur,and suddenly that which a day ago seemed so difficult to understand,we find
ourselves saying AHH thats it! A mini eureka moment,followed by many more over the coming years.
And so there comes a dawning that we are all that IS,and of ourselves are nothing
that we are a pattern within the tapestry of the master Weaver!

We are "IS" here and now,yet we know it not!We cannot be anything other than what we
are?The root of the difficulty lies in the fact that we don't really know or understand our
true nature.
It is very difficult to let go of what we believe to be real,we have everything to lose.
At our surface we seem locked into phenomena and are indeed part of it!However at
our deepest level we are more aligned with the enigma of noumena and issuers of that
which "IS".
Instinctively at times we "feel" this pull of aligning magnetic force,but our egos "rush
in to rescue us from such a sally?The last thing our ego wants is to be made redundant,
and will use every form of deception and "slight of hand" tactics to keep us firmily within
its grasp.
So it comes at no great surprise that each individual who looks within for an answer to
lifes real purpose,will inevitably be faced with an "uphill" struggle battling with the ego
for dominance and supremacy.
Single-minded determination are part of the requirements one needs to venture upon
the road of self-discovery and enlightenment,along with the abilty to not take ones "self"
too seriously,and cultivate and sense of humour.

That would be master WAVER, Michael - Infinite Space!
pif. People look after the things they have affection for. It is thus essential that we learn to have affection for the planet that sustains us. "The sense of threat from every quarter of what is known as the Establishment – which is to say, of modern civilization – is not altogether a put-on or an act for many of these young folk, but an actual condition of soul. The break-off is real, and what is being bombed and blown up outside are actual symbols of interior fears." - Joseph Campbell | |

Everywhere is HERE and every time is NOW,sounds very deep and profound,but happens
to corrospond with the way it-is.When I first became aware of this,like many of you who may take the trouble to read his post rejected this idea as absurd and impossible,how could this really be!The fellow who presened these ideas to me said-fine michael,if your
reason recoils at such a suggestion,then reject it,you are not ready to accept this!What
thought I,not ready!Cheeky swine!
I sat and wrestled with the concept until it "dawned" on me that this must be so!From that small beginning the noumena was like a friend waiting to be introduced?Every thing in this
material world has been thought into existence,mind in action,where then is the being who
I thought was I?Where indeed.
tbc.

This pathway of life is littered with good intentions,we are judged by our actions,when we judge ourselves by our intentions,perceptive awareness when locked within our conscious
mind brings us to the point of facing many issues,one of these issues pertains to who we really are,not who we think we are,rather what we really are.
As these questions regarding our true identity rise to the surface,they are at once intercepted by the ego who tries to whack them out of the frame rather like a baseball
bat hitting a incoming ball!
Once we have touched the "fires" of our inner lives then the beacon flashes forth and
a magnetic link is forged with the higher -self/soul,once this is done then the quest for
the riddle of being begins in earnest.
That which IS calls us home,a great voice from beyond the void resounds within our inner
being,connections are made,and links established,our egos are on full alert trying to save
us from "a fate worse than death"?However if we persist with this worthy endevour we will
find that rather than loosing something--we have gained ALL!

How very SO Melanie,when many are gathered in my name (love) then I AM present,
many times in group meditations have I personally experienced this very statement of
truth.
