Arrived

Arrived: 

there are times when I still feel alone and lonely, losing loved through the last several years, and with a present loss still keen in parting. Yet my translation of these life events have shifted, there's a different perspective given now. I'm no wiser than before, not any more enlightened, but I have gained an intimacy with a loving presence that is constant in its comfort. Of course the Holy Spirit has always been present and it was only my insistence on a particular form that kept this experience at bay. My years of loss have brought me here, more so, they've revealed a pattern of my own denial of what is real and true.

nothing real can be threatened.

nothing unreal exists.

these are no longer mere words to me, not just a passage in a book that offers fleeting comfort - they're now an active, living reality, a source of immediate recognition that what is real can never be truly threatened nor taken from me. Yes, only love is real, and it's never contained in a particular form or experience. It's here, now, and available through every moment of existence. My life is about noticing this grace, being aware of its thread through my life events. I've arrived at the only moment ever made available, here, with nowhere else to be...

and herein lies the peace of God.

I love you, Eric

Infinite Patience

Infinite patience: 

it's a state of loving certainty, knowing that every outcome is absolutely rooted in love, and that truly, right now - we are resting within eternity. This is what A Course in Miracles means by it's statement of infinite patience and that it's practice within the present moment produces immediate results. The word practice here is really just a mindful act of noticing that there's nowhere else to be, eternity is already here, and time cannot circumvent its presence. The immediate effects is in resting in the absolute certainty that love is always present and never wavering - even as the mind wanders in dreams of distance. 

infinite patience is the reminder that we're home.

I love you, Eric

Angels

Angels: 

I don't really know much about angels, my beliefs aren't set in doubt, nor could I offer definite proof of their existence. Both yoga philosophy and A Course in Miracles speak of angels as being more than a possibility, that our lives are guided and often protected by their presence. Many people who have meditated sincerely for a number of years have opened to themselves to these subtle realms and experience their influence and messages on a deeply personal level. There are those who seemed to have never lost their connection to the celestial and receive their guidance as an act of grace. Again, I just don't know enough to offer doubt or proof. 

but I love the thought of these companions.

at this point in my life I've reached the very edge of surrender. It seems that I have mediated myself to an edge of subtle realms and experiences that cannot be explained and I have little need to try. What I'm asked to surrender is my own defiance, letting go of my need to take a lonely stance against the universe and shake my fist in anger. The funny thing is - I never even knew that I was doing so. Yet the ego itself is a defiance against reality. I have certainly declared myself independent of God and have lived much of my life in this belief. We all have. 

and now I'm asked to let this go.

to surrender my defiance.

more so, 

I'm being told, not by words, but through presence...that I'm not alone.

⁶“The rhythm of the universe,” “the herald angel’s song,” all these and more are heard instead of loud discordant shrieks. (ACIM, P-2.VI.2:6)

however faintly now...

I hear.
