Guest guest Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Hi Kundalites, hope you are all doing ok. Its been a good week; wave after wave of blissful shining experience, and the nice thing is there is no desire to hold onto it. A friend sent me a quote, saying " being nothing, you are everything " . That says it all.. just being open, not trying to open, but simply remaining empty, as if each experience is poured into a cup without a bottom A little vision came to me this week of someone blowing soap bubbles into the air, and for a moment, the bubble forms, reflects the world around it, is a beautiful container for experience, and then pops, dissapears. Each moment is like that, is arises, there is a context, an experience, and for a moment the self is captivated and the experience reflected within the mind, and, without the effort of grasping, it self liberates, it pops, it dissapears, to be replaced by a new moment... The mind has this astonishing ability for renewal, if we can only allow the grip to be relaxed. I have been fortunate to have a beautiful week, wave after wave of shining velvet experience. Its the same practice as when I was suffering, whatever is there, allow it to be there, and trust that it will liberate, and slowly healing occurs and a transformation of the soul that is beyond the minds ability to comprehend occurrs. Even bad experience is fascinating if the body can be seen as a vehicle of experience and not a fundamental mistaken identity. My bowl must stay empty no matter how good things get; thats the key, and this week I have been blessed in so many ways.. ok.. rambling on here.. one of the implications of the unlimited mind is a radical openess to what is arising, and being willing to flow with that. The ego is charactertized by a need for certainty, repetition, inertia and routine, while Bodhi mind loves the unpredicable dance into the unknown. I have always felt that a useful practice is simply to make a conscious point of doing a different thing each day. I find its impossible to know what K has in store for me so being open to new and strange experience is the key to the adventure.. haha. On the flip side, had an interesting dream last night.. made me think of Tiffany's experience a bit.. " I am in a house with one of my colleagues who has some personal issues. There is a room in the house where someone (a friend of my coleague) died a while back. I stayed in that room after teh deathand went through a long healing period of a couple of years , graced by K. My colleague is missing the person who died and is freaked out by the death. My colleague , Mr A, seems possessed and starts having demonic fits with his eyes rolling back and contorting into rage or insanity, then comes back to normal. I dont seem worried, I simply hold up my hand, draw the bad energy out of him and transmit love to him in the name of Jesus, then go on with my day... " What i liked in the dream was the absolute sense of wellbeing I had when faced with demonic energy Thanks for all your posts; i have been a little busy recently, yet still get time to read them... love and effortless freedom Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
