When Two Creators Meet.

[Guest guest]

Its a pity we cannot greet strangers more openly.

I am curious about people. I find people interesting.

I am also keen to find out, just what people believe them

selves to be.

It is amusing to hear people describe themselves.

They will say- I am a Doctor, or I am a gardener.

If you ask them what they are, they will define themselves

by the work they do, or they will make an excuse and say, I

am retired, but I was a fireman, I was a salesman.

As if by saying - I was

It still defines them now, or by relating to the past, that

relation, describes their purpose now, even in this negative

way.

Of course, you never were a Doctor or a gardener, you

merely did the work of doctoring and gardening.

Actually, when you think about it, gardeners, firefighters

and salesmen are just as much healers as physicians. The work they did

or do, healed a need, a circumstance, or

a condition.

Embodiment is addictive. We believe in a whole range of

bodies that specialize in performing certain tasks, like

husband wife, father, mother etc.,. Is it not true also, that to

each embodiment we assign a variant of our personality?

You can say I am a mother and a gardener, and think them

different aspects of you. Yet a mother is a gardener to her

family and a gardener a mother to the plants in her care,

and both descriptions suggest the work of healing.

So if someone says to me that he or she is a healer, I do not

automatically jump to assumptions and categories them in a

specific pigeon hole, but ask them about how they create a

healing environment in their lives.

I always want to ask people certain questions, but I cannot

be too forward, and obvious about this. People become

uncomfortable about the really important things, it is best to

let them talk about the peripheral, or socially defining

aspects of their existence, hoping that they may begin to ask

the important questions of life of themselves.

It would be so much more direct to ask these questions-

Where have you come from? What were you before you

were born? Where are you going? What are you expressing

as yourself now? Have you a mission, and if so, have you

figured it out yet? What will you be and what will you do,

when you drop this body?

These are the great questions. The ones that we need to ask

ourselves everyday. There maybe no definitive answers to

these questions, but there are healing answers to be found.

Healing answers give purpose to life, they point to growth

and resolution, and then to ever more authentic questions,

such as-

My beliefs are my limitation. When did I stop? When did

my role playing become my definition? Why do I need to

mask my purpose by assuming different hats to make me a

specialist?

Yes, its a pity we cannot usually meet people between the

shores of what they think they are, and what they really are,

and say-

Hey, what divine image of yourself will you be today?

I need a mirror of myself, and you are my healing moment,

give me it to receive mine.

A concept is such a poor gift when to creators meet.

I am a Brotherhood of One.

A blade of grass

in our field of awakening.

What I do or say,

is no more then what I am,

and what you appear to be.

Arisen from the wind

that plays and moves

between the meadow grass.

I am the pacific one:

The still one,

yet in all places.

A wave in this moment.

Love

eric.
