Christ is Risen

Christ is risen. The Light of Existence has triumphed over all illusions, all deception, all ill will, all maliciousness. The Light of Love has pierced through all energies of fear, all holding back. The Light of joy has overcome all grief, all habits of bondage, all self created patterns of misery. Christ has triumphed, and Christ is in us, in us all. In every human who exists, for God is the Light of Existence. In every animal, every insect, every leaf, every flower. The Light of Existence is Love, and this Love has broken through, risen up, overcome, able to transform us all.

Be riddled with Light. Let a trillion little beams of Light pierce all that resists Light within you. Let all karmic darkness be riddled with Light. Let all attached negative energies be riddled with Light. Let all your hopes and desires be riddled with Light. Let all emotional energies be riddled with Light.

Sing out, shout, "Christ has risen in my being." Let it flow through you. Let your natural inner confidence arise. It is there. It will awaken. You can do it. Christ is innocent, pure Existence, flowing with Love, radiant with beauty, alive forever… forever free. Christ is in you. In the highest heights and lowest depths, in your center and circumference. Christ is you. Your truest true, your absolute Being. Be riddled with Light.

Happy Easter everyone, everyday, through all your journey, all the way home.

Love and Playfulness

Once You Learn Your Life Lessons, The Reasons You Have Come Here, Then You Are Free To Play...

Imagine an illuminated couple watching their beloved little child play. The father sits in silence, with his full attention on the child, bathing the child in awareness, detached and free. The mother’s full attention is also on the child, but her instinct is to interact fully with the child, to play with it and enhance its exploration and development through loving companionship. I suggest that these are two modes of spiritual conception about the nature of God.

From a purely detached observation of life it would seem there is a lot of validity to the more Buddhistic belief systems that perceive the Divine as pure detachment, complete in the bliss of limitless freedom, silently observing all from the highest heavens to the lowest hell with the same degree of full awareness. On the other hand, I believe our call and challenge as divine and human creatures is to create this interactive expression of God. I would say the mother figures Christ, or the ongoing development of the Divine as liberating, engaged compassion.

Mental detachment from the negative aspects of ego (selfish concerns) is crucial in both spiritual systems. But it is the element of heart that brings the full human/divine warmth into play. And play is a good word for it. Perhaps the highest expression of the union of mental freedom and compassionate heart is joyful, loving playfulness. It certainly is the healthiest atmosphere for a child’s development. Couldn’t the healthiest atmosphere for children’s growth also be the healthiest dynamic for adult societies?

I do not mean to imply that there is not compassionate playfulness in Buddhism. I’m sure there are many Buddhist who wondrously express this. God knows, it is certainly lacking here in the West with our dysfunctional anti-body, anti-life spiritual foundations. It is a challenge to spiritualities of both East and West to open so fully to Life, to grace and Love, to the Divine freedom and to each other that joyful, celebrative playfulness is the natural result.

Unless you become as children, how shall you enter the realms of the heavens? Jesus

Primal Innocence

There is a primal purity or innocence of being to life. The sun is purely what it is; the moon is quietly innocent, being pure moon; the stars stream light in utter purity and innocence; the mountains arise in primal purity; the sea is innocent, the rivers; the fields; and every animal, bird, fish or insect is utterly and purely what it is and what it is meant to be. All is pure and natural except mankind. Only we have the capacity to forget our real nature. Only we have the capacity to reverse and twist things into what they are not meant to be.

Every human being deeply values peace, harmony, beauty, freedom, and every other expression of human happiness. Please slow down and read this list again. Do you really value these qualities? Why? Because they are spontaneous expressions of our true nature when it is unblocked and freely expressed. They come from deep inside us. Then why don’t we just get busy happily living our real natures? This is the big question thinkers of all ages have wrestled with.

My view on it is that in our development we have recurrently reversed things in our psyche, like a magnetic field when you switch the poles. What is pure, open, curious and joyous in us becomes injured, and thus mistrusted. Often, at this early stage of development a sense of “self consciousness” born of insecurity and anxiety takes control because it “feels safer” then developing wisdom about how to live open, curious, and spontaneously “innocent” without being abused and hurt by others.

We need to reverse things back within our minds, nervous and chemical systems to be as they are meant to be and truly are in their essential nature. Then alone will our deepest, luminous nature of pure consciousness arise as peace, harmony and joyous good will and melt away the dark core of grief that feeds our destructive natures. This is the resurrection of Christ within us, the enlightenment of Buddha. This is our true liberation.
