Capacity To Allow

Capacity to allow:

everything exactly as it is - and even with the added wish of change. Nothing is excluded from the moment, and true mindfulness is simply this acceptance. My world takes place now, immediate, and allows for complex actions. It all takes place at once. To be mindful isn't a matter of noting each detail in passing - it's of the passing itself, the spacious that allows the world to be in motion. This is where everything appears, where thoughts will linger, and it what remains after every detail passes. I am mindful of my open nature, my capacity to allow. 

there are no means to this arrival, no amount of sitting will ever bring me closer to what's always present now - and yet I find myself drawn to the experience of watching, to sit as witness until even this is gone. Through this I find that meditation isn't passive, my quiet moments are filled with equal life as any other moment found. I am always a participant, active in my role as life. There is no wish to escape this, no desire more intimate than my capacity to allow. To sit is just one more aspect that appears. 

everything belongs. 

of course, as well, there's no need to sit - it's all available now, life, and just as immediate as any mindful moment. To see myself as capacity happens in an instant. It's retracing any thought or object of my view directly back to source. By this I don't mean a true beginning, that there is a source found that starts the world. I am not looking for a point of origin. Indeed, in this seeing I find no real start or finish to anything at all, everything appearing in seamless flow. To say source is just another word implied to open nature, this capacity to allow. 

so it's seeing, just this, everything exactly as it is. 

mindful that it all belongs.
