Sweetness of Contentment

Posted on by

The sweetness of contentment
lies in the sweetness
of this moment

free of the projections of the mind
in a quest for visions
of future success

free of the wanderings of the mind
searching the past
in fear of failure

Can you trust
the orchestrations
of your soul

to provide you
with the sweetness
of contentment

in this moment
and every moment
throughout eternity?

Constraints of Time

Posted on by

The more present we become
the less real
the extraneous becomes
finally seen as the illusion
we dreamed up
for the momentary
experience of it

When we free ourselves
of the constraints of time
timelines collapse
memories and stories
effortlessly dissolve
and the wisdom of the soul
is distilled to carry forth

Unless, we are unwilling
to release them
allowing them to pull us back
into the matrix
of the illusion of time.

Happy and Content

In this moment
I am happy and content
it matters not
what happened
in the moments
that have passed
or the moments
that are yet to come

For this moment
I am happy and content
and I allow this moment
to morph into
another moment
of happiness
and contentment

Herein lies
the potential for
a whole lifetime
sublime Joy.

Create your own Magick

Posted on by

Create your own Magick!

You were never meant to
emulate or copy
anyone else’s magick

You were never meant to
repeat magick passed down
through the ages

True magick
is always fresh and new
in every moment

Your magick
your creation
your GodSelf expressing
as All-That-Is
in the here and now.

In This Moment

Posted on by

Always do whatever
feels appropriate
in this moment
without looking back
without judgment

For this moment
is not the same
as the moments
that have passed

This circumstance
is not the same
as the circumstances
that have passed

Each moment
each aspect of yourself
each circumstance
is new unto itself

Be present
in this moment
and allow the wisdom
of your heart to lead
without judgment.

Now That I am Empty

Posted on by

Now that I am empty
of that which is not mine
having released all
ancestral ties
society’s rules
religious dogma
mental programing
the need to judge

Now that I am empty
how do I choose to be filled?

Do I choose to be filled?

Or do I choose
to allow All-That-Is
to continually
flow through me
enjoying each
and every moment
anew?

My Own Reality

Posted on by

My current point of consciousness
where I place my attention
is my only reality
everything else is
null and void
in this moment

There is no need
to resurrect the past
to engage
in past suffering
to face old dragons
rewrite the old stories

By being steadfast
in my present
point of consciousness
everything else
effortlessly
fades away

Indeed we see life
through our own filters
but even they dissolve
when we release
judgment of the past
and fear of the future

Indeed we interact
with group consciousness
but it is our own
point of consciousness
that creates
within the group

Therefore, carefully choose
your point of consciousness
be steadfast
in attending to it
and allow everything else
to effortlessly dissolve

THIS is how we create
our own reality.

Remembrance

Posted on by

After releasing all
of who I thought myself to be
my persona
my relationships
my job
my home
my lifestyle
my identity
my old existence

I sit here
free of all that was
in the stillness
in the quiet
in what I thought
was a void

Allowing
the remembrance of
All That I Am
to bubble forth
and create anew

It does not look
like I thought it would
for the mind
has never known
Who I AM

It does not feel
like I thought it would
for my emotions
were never the reality of
Who I AM

So what is my reality
what is this new life?

As soon as I attempt
to answer those questions
I am recreating
as I used to
think myself to be

Instead
I allow reality
to reveal itself
in each and every moment
with a new found freedom
without the need
to describe
without the need
to identify

For I know
Who I AM
at the core
of my existence
and that is
eternal freedom.

All That I Am

Posted on by

All That I Am
continues to expand
it is not a destination
with an end to the journey
there are no goals
nothing to learn
nothing to attain
for consciousness is infinite
constantly expanding
with each and every experience
in the here and now
where All That I Am resides.
