Be here NOW

The sunrise and the ruby...RUMI ..

In the early morning hour,
just before the dawn
lover and beloved wake...
and take a drink of water
She asks , do you love me
or yourself more ....
realy, tell me the absolute truth...
He says .There is nothing left of me..
Im like a ruby held up to the sunrise.
Is it.. still a stone , or a world...
made of red ness it has no ressitance
to sun light .......

Keep knocking, and the joy inside will
eventually open a window
and look out to see who is there..

Knowing others is wisdom;
Knowing the self is enlightenment.
Mastering others requires force;
Mastering the self needs strength.

If you know that everything comes from the mind, don't become attached.
Once attached, you're unaware. But once you see your own nature,
the entire Canon becomes so much prose.
It's thousands of sutras and shastras only amount to a clear mind.
Understanding comes in midsentence. What good are doctrines?
The ultimate Truth is beyond words. Doctrines are words.
They're not the Way. The Way is wordless.
Words are illusions. . . . Don't cling to appearances,
and you'll break through all barriers. . . .

Be a Beacon of Light

or

Be a Torch Bearer

or Both.

For those who have not awakened yet

or are just starting to !

Choose !

Be the Divine Light

that you are !

Others will follow.

Let go of the mind.

Stay in the Heart.

Stay in the Now for that is all there is.

BECOME AWARE OF YOUR BREATHING

FEEL THE FLOW IN AND OUT OF YOUR BODY

FEEL YOUR INNER ENERGY FIELD

ALL THAT YOU HAVE EVER HAD TO DEAL WITH ,

COPE WITH IN REAL LIFE - AS OPPOSED TO IMAGINARY

MIND PROJECTIONS-IN THIS MOMENT .

ASK YOURSELF WHAT "problem"YOU HAVE

RIGHT NOW , NOT NEXT YEAR , TOMORROW

OR FIVE MINUTES FROM NOW .WHAT IS WRONG WITH
THIS MOMENT...?

(ECKHART TOLLE ... the power of NOW ) ...

lightbeing · 07-16-2009, 11:11 AM

Why does the mind habitually deny
or resist the Now?
Because it cannot function
and remain in control without time,
which is past and future,
so it perceives the timeless Now
as threatening.
Time and mind are in fact inseparable.

Eckhart Tolle

I would like to share a poem I received from WinterWolf

Oh, how meaningless are the words of our world!
Such tiny utterances of breath and sound
could never fully recreate the feeling one holds
when in full awareness of their Being...
One could list 1000 words,
all of most Sacred and pure meaning,
yet never come close.
Ahhh....

Only in Silence;
deep; still; and absolute,
where neither words nor thoughts pervade...
Only here,
in such a space may one truly witness
the full complexity of Spirits Orchestra of Light
we call Life...
Only here may one begin to grasp
the power that lies within us all...
Yet even here,
we,
specks of Light that we are,
may only skim the very surface of this,
but in one tiny sip we taste the entirety of it all...
You Are...
We Are...
I AM...
Silent Breath...
Heart Beat...
I... AM...
I AM...

Om

~ Shamanic Whisper
