Easter is a time for contemplating the deeper aspects of life. Easter is a time for celebrating the death of the old, and the birth of the new.
We are now going through a period of immense change, both on an inner level, as well in our outer worlds.
A TIME OF COURAGE
This period that we are going through right now requires courage; the courage to face and take responsibility for the world that is our thoughts and emotions, for according to the discoveries in quantum mechanics, it is this inner world of our own creation that influences the outer world we experience. Empowered with this knowledge, it is now our responsibility to choose a new Earth, built on a new inner realisation.
CHOOSING FEELINGS
Focused, clear thought arising from a space of Presence, and choosing feelings and emotions that uplift us are tools which we can use to build a better place to dwell in. This will greatly benefit both ourselves, as well as all of mankind and our fellow creatures. We are one humanity, and are intimately connected with Mother Gaia and all life on planet Earth and the Cosmos.
CHOOSING THE STILL-POINT
I urge you, in spite of the fear driven information coming at you in tidal-waves at the moment, to enter, again and again, into the Still Point within you, accessible to you only ever in the Present moment. Presence opens a portal within us for the miraculous energy of Grace to flow into this world.
We are so honoured to be alive and to be amongst those who are more awake on this planet at this time, but with it comes great responsibility. It is vital that enough people shift from living from the mind, to being guided by their hearts. The mind lives in a time-based past/future Matrix, while the heart is the seat of pure creative awareness, and the doorway to a New Earth currently being born.
The walls that are crumbling both in our personal world and in the world ‘out there’ are walls that have imprisoned us. It’s now time to wake up to what is real.
THE CROSS
This weekend is a good time to relook at the symbol of the cross and the powerful relevance it holds for us at this time. It is a sacred symbol that can be traced back centuries, before the birth of Christianity into the world. It contains some deep secrets, which can help us navigate these challenging times we are moving through.
THE CROSS – A MAP HOME
There are many ways of viewing the symbol of the cross, from seeing it as a symbol of injustice and suffering, to a sign of transformation and resurrection. Today I offer my way – as a ‘Map of Consciousness’ and a doorway back home to love.
THE HORIZONTAL PLANE – THE STORY OF LIFE
In this Map, the horizontal bar in the symbol of the cross, represents a horizontal plane of existence – a procession of time and mind, a linear journey from past to future, from birth to death.
This is the 4th dimension view of reality – 3 dimensions of physical space and 1 of time. It is a mind-made Matrix which mankind has become lost in. In the Matrix, man looks to past-time for their identity, while hoping for some event in future-time to save them from their current pain and suffering. They look to ‘future’ to bring them eternal life, free from struggle. Many religions are based in this mind-made paradigm, far removed from what their enlightened founding Master originally brought to humanity.
The horizontal plane is ruled by mind and fear (false evidence appearing real), where time and form are the only things that are perceived of as ‘real’ but with an end date,
THE VERTICAL PLANE – THE DEPTH OF LIFE
The upright pole of the cross symbolises the vertical plane of existence, free of mind-time. This is the narrow gap between past and future, where freedom from memory and anticipation is to be experienced. The vertical plane represents the depth of Presence and Spirit, and Life is eternal.
In truth, Life is only ever Now. You are only ever alive Now. You can only experience love, joy, peace and gratitude Now. This Eternal Now is reality. The only place you can have abundant life is Now.
In truth, we are only ever really in the vertical plane. This is where your body lives. This is the only place where we can fully experience and live life. However, the mind has constructed an illusionary world which we have come to believe is more real than reality! We have made ‘our‘ world of past and future more important than God’s world of Spirit/Presence; for God is ‘Omni Present’.
While we have constructed mental idols of the past and of the future, the God of reality, of Life, is only ever Now. This is the abundant Life Jesus spoke of; the full depth of Life, called BEING.
OUR FOCUS CREATES OUR REALITY
There is a law of the universe which says that whatever you invest your awareness in, expands. We have invested almost all of our awareness in the horizontal plane – of history and future, of memory and anticipation.
And this is fine, so long as the matrix is comfortable and predictable and acceptable for the mind. However when this mind-created dream turns into a bit of a nightmare, there is great incentive to awaken. That is the gift of these times we are now entering.
As we begin to wake up, we realise we have been missing the beauty of the ‘here and now’. For this is the only place and time Life, Love, Peace & Joy are to be found. As we now start to refocus our awareness back into the ‘here and now’, in the depth of Life, rather than the story of Life, we once more start to live a life of true Freedom – freedom from fear, from mind control and past programming – freedom to Live Life fully, in grace and gratitude.
This is where we have the power, through consciously chosen thoughts and feelings, to create a New Earth which stands on the firm rock of peace and a felt sense of connection and love.
How do you know you are present? It’s when there is a deep sense of gratitude in your heart for the isness of life now.
Make the Present moment more important to you than your ‘story’ this Easter.
Much love
