LOVE.....

who am i ,the extention of love in form
i have never been born
and i will never taste death.
I am infinite and eternal .
I shine forth as a sunbeam to the sun
I am the effect of love
And i stand before you to love you .

I got the above from David Wilcock's recent blog. It resonated highly for me and I would recommend all to read it.

Rhythm and others have said that the light rays of change and re-alignment are very strong at the moment.

It is certainly appears to be easier to drop the past and move forward with a lighter heart at this time, which is an important part of the coming shift. Certainly it has helped me. Take advantage of it now.

You can, right now, throw off the past which is dragging you down and that heavy heart is gone. I have done this, and am very happy as a result.

Enough of the past.

A question from the unwashed.....what is a "spiritual" person? Is it important? If so, how do you become one? Do you have to be "spiritual" to take advantage of the coming times? I have been so diappointed with people who have been billed as "spiritual" recently. Can someone tell me what "being spiritual" is? Does it matter?


I have been re-reading important works which keep jumping out at me right now. Hermann Hesse's writings are a great example of how i feel right NOW.

Listen to his advice, written almost a century ago:

"Life passes like a flash of lightning.
Whose blaze barely lasts long enough to see.
While the earth and the sky stand still forever,
How swiftly changing time flies across man's face.
O you who sit over your full cup and do not drink...
Tell me, whom are you still waiting for?"

From "Klingsor's Last Summer"



As Rhythm's thread says, "Be Here Now"!

[rhythm]

What do i know of a spiritul person piers!

nothing , i know this just as a label

like enyother ...

i only know

how to do my best


and be as kind and

loving as i am able

that love is the only

way , so i call you

love , why be complicated

when it all so simple

words can tie you up in knots

if as you say you are happy

just be that , love !!!!!then

there are no more questions ....

and smile......

[rhythm]

And like eny label

it will drag you down

as you try to live up to it ...

not being natural self

maby behaving supirior ,holy , self righteous ,inlightend

its simlpy if i must give a meaning

self grandiose ....

its like is there a here and there ?
a heaven or a hell ?
a CONDITION..
somtimes i have been called spiritual !!
by others i know not why tho..
i hope they find me loving
and this is why ...
i love you all..
labels and all ...
warts and all ...
do your best is all ...
the all that is ...
right here right now !
LISTEN its all there in you .....

[piers2210]

Nice reply Rhythm, so what you are saying is that a truely "spiritual" person is just someone who loves, gives, smiles, is nice to be around.....i can work on that!!!

My problem relates to the "spiritual" tour i went on recently to the mayan temples, which was lead by a so-called "spiritual" person who was in fact so self-congratualatory, so "superior", so egocentric, so consumed by the "fame" she had found, that she was no longer "nice", no longer had a warm "energy" around her (if she ever did), no longer interested in helping people (if she ever did).....it upset me and made me question where i "was". Where i had "reached".

She increased one's sense of failure, fear etc etc, rather than increasing one's self worth, or giving direction....And the people surrounding this so-called spiritual person were taking my energy, they were mostly "lost souls", searching for something you can only find within, not from some egocentric superior "spiritual" person....

I guess i'll just have to help myself.

I feel that i can raise this final "question" about life here on planet earth on your thread because it is a wide ranging thread, like the Exchanger's thread where all kinds of thoughts can be raised....

I want to be assured that just because i am a "normal" person, and not a monk or someone who is "called" or something, or a so-called spokesman for some alien race i will be ok.....

By the way, the light pulses are very powerful at the moment. I couldn't sleep last night. What on earth is going on?

[rhythm]

Piers you dont need to work on that

cos you are already that ..

you seem to have said that we can have the label

if it means we are warm loving caring ?

but who will , then need this label ?.....

you my friend have a very heathy

view , all we can do is be our self

in all honesty , then of course

we have to take responsibity

no one said this is the way

you have to be the way

in and of your own knowledge

no tarot cards no rune stones

no fortune teller can tell you

what you must find in you

finaly , in your power .....


a non dependent ....
at ease in life human being...Ah..
to be free eh!!!

hope to get some others views
i tryd once before
i think with only one responce..
come on guys
kick up some dust on rhythmms thread
cant allways be nicy nicy , not even me

[rhythm]

Rhythmm Contemplating ommmmmmmm.

going deeepeeerr weeeeeeeeee

So let us ,and that seems to me and piers at the moment ...loverly..
take a deeper look at labeling !!!
1 .what is its purpose
2.do we need it
hmm complex when you
examine it deeper !
If as i believe there is only wholenasss
with no seperation
then there would be no need
to label as there would in a sense
be no things to label just what is..
i can see this is going to take a while
.
Lets take a rug of many colours
if we had no labels never learned
this is a rug and these are pattern and
these are colours this is its size ect ect
would that make a life for us ,
hmm not sure where this is going
Well keep going girl ..
the mind, this life , is it only made up out of how we label it ?
a chair is only a chair as we have labeld it
of course its realy an energetic construct
does the chair know its a chair heheheheh
you know what i may have to go and have another
contemplate .
I will be back with purpose and meaning , i hope ,hahaha
eny visitors , thro in your 10 cent worth be nice
part two. sooon me loverlys xxxxx

[rhythm]

Part two .

purpose and meaning !.

The pupose is to give meaning......

i know that is very simplistic

but it realy is my answer

here to teach us

the things we need to learn ...

I think there is a dislike of this labeling when it is addresed

at ourself like our name , when deep in us we know we have no

name , i sopose i dont want to be labeld as a person

a type if you like in a box keeping me confined

conditioned , realy that feels so tunnel vision....

no label out of he box . I often askd why im called rhythmm

and tho it was not my given name it is what i m called by all who

know me , i tell them rhythmm is who i am not what ...

friends im starting to feel a little self indulgent here now

i am only responding to the question .

and piers it looks like its me and you on this one ...

so i look forward to your interaction ..
im feeling there is further to go on this
i need some reaction to take it further ...
of course im open to change my mind
and dare i say find my self wrong
leaving a place to find a highter truth
and then grow .....
hmmm love to GROW ..........

[judykott]

Just a quick note as I was on my way out today.

rhythm, your words feel very much as your avatar looks, words radiating and flying from the heart, I can feel them all the way here in Calgary. It seems as if their has been quite an increase in the radiating love of late, It seems as if that makes a pair of radiating hearts

Yes , Pier2210 your posts make it clear as to who else is radiating a very special kind of love

[piers2210]

Hehehe...who knows? Tomorrow's another day.

But remember the first law of the Dharma... in order to hold on to love, you must let it go. Embrace change and you understand life.

[Carmen]

Piers, your experience of the "spiritual" tour sounds a bit similiar to some of my experiences when I first 'woke' from the dream of humanty!

I kept trying to join groups to be around like minded people and to learn more. Mostly I found a sort of spiritual ego and not very advanced learning. So, I went back to my books and stayed solitary in my learning for many years. I was quite specific in my intent, it had to be truth and nothing but truth, so mostly old esoteric books were where I gleaned knowledge from. I also knew that it was also the application of knowledge in my life that was key. Unless I made changes in response to what I was learning it was only intellectual philosophy and not wisdom. Wisdom is only gained by experience.

I eventually found the Ramtha School and that resonated and challenged me in all my areas of learning, of life. It was like remembering something that I'd partially learned in other lifetimes. I recognised the old warrior and knew I'd known him somehow before.

Talking about living in the Now rhythm, I must have spent a whole year where every book I was studying, to me, was about staying in the now. To me the NOW is a stargate into the spiritual/higher realms. It is where our connection is to our Great Self and our infallable guidance is. It is also the eternal. Love this thread, it is soo uplifteing.

Love and Light

Sharing poem.....

TWO HEARTS ...

Where two hearts have surrendered

beyond the dream of the dreamer

it becames clear that only love is real

Fear of loss is unemaginable

and the thought of possessing one another

is but a comedy

good only for

a moments belly laugh...

Carmen...

At last SOMEONE has answered my question in terms i understand.

Thanks!

I looked at the Ramtha website but it still seems way too complex for me!

Anyway,....I will not worry about the "tag" spiritual....if someone announces themselves as "spiritual" i will run for the nearest exit!

I still love this life.

xx

[Carmen]

Good idea piers, (running for the exit) we might get stuck in the doorway, cos I would be leaving too!!!!LOL

[piers2210]

Carmen darling, unless you like The Two Fat Ladies as much as me and Dan, we'll be fine! Otherwise, widen the doorway!

Thanks girl , your a real inspiration

call in again , and lets do that party befors toooo long eh!!!!

[rhythm]

Ok lets move on here ....

Lets kick up a bit more dust

on rhythmms thread .....

Been contemplating yet again guys and gals ...

So what the deal ,
the deal is wait for it ,
Soul mates ,
twin flames ,
ar!! that old chestnut .....
will this stir the pudding my precious ,precious friends .
No seriously , or not up to you , do we realy belive in this
one love that will come along in this life , that one person who
will be perfect in everyway ,that we will never want to be parted from , who will never drive us nuts , and will agree with us and never have an argument with , and the sex with them will take us to the realms of paradise ...etc ect.....
Of course i am laying it on with a trowel but im realy interested..
Have eny of you found this one love ?
to be sure ,to be sure to sure .!!!!!
Do you belive in this one love and no other ....????
Could this be some kind of a waiting game that realy just keeps us hanging on , some fairy tale where the hero meets the heroine ...
And all that will realy happen is you will be come as ball and chain ...
Making the pieces fit , cos you want it sooo bad ....hmmmm..
I gotta tell you i havent seen it yet , im not sayin its not out there just that in all my years here on planet gia , and all the people i know and have known , i havent seen it .......yet ..
What i have seen is lots of co dependent relationships
couples who suffocate and bind each other till there like worn out old dish clothes ...To be fair i have seen a few that seem to respect and get along with each other , not so with my parents , who made each others life a complete misery der !!!!
REAL interested in your feed back on this one ...my loverly friends .

[rhythm]

The one thing the ego truly thinks it has

is its own life...


In truth there is no self that has a life

to realize this is to fly

beyond the realm of

suffering, even tho

life continues!!

[Carmen]

Mmmmm, Time will tell!!!

[futureyes]

thank you m s for your inspiration ... you are with me always ...


the time is now ...


awaken all you warriors
the time to be is now
awake your selves upon this day
allow to be shown how

your minds be clear
your hearts set free
you're more than you
no less than me

be still my friend
remember when
the time of saints
the time of zen

asleep you've been
for many times
awake dear ones
recall the rhymes

you've led your men
through thick and tow
they marched with you
for this you know

for freedom fought
the blood ran cold
and many times
a soul was sold

and did you then
win what you fought
your truth remained
but not forgot

time to rise
your truth once more
lands far and wide
and shore to shore

the earth will turn
as you have known
a tear will fall
upon the throne

and what was then
and what is now
will soon be gone
and you know how

knives will not strike
no guns at bay
truth be told
along gods way

the earth will turn
the fields will shake
for moments edge
but never break

awake dear warrior
nuff sleep you've had
wake up your truth
you are not mad

raise your sword
the time is now
no battle fought
no need to bow

the fields are gone
the blood is dry
this battle now
tis in the sky

no killing of
a heart no more
no blood will run
as did before

the night is dark
your light is bright
peace be with you
your mighty light

your sword is you
your truth its blade
awake yourself
out from the shade

go for ye now
spread truth of old
come forth you now
this must be told

the light you are
the light you've been
you must shine bright
you must be seen

your weapons now
must lay to rest
no blood must run
this is your quest

all wars were lost
no winners found
must never be
another round

bring forth your swords
of light and love
shed no more tears
speak as the dove

lift up your sword
reach for the skies
they must be seen
to end the cries

your swords are love
your swords are light
seen by the day
and in the night

awaken all you warriors
tis sleep you need no more
show your light
and not ignore

cross the isles
and shore to shore
throughout this world
and not ignore

your time has come
the time is near
freedom born
let no more fear

your sword be raised
the world will turn
must change your ways
this must you learn

the time is now
begin your quest
let truth unfold
from east to west

seek in you
your light within
let others know
this must begin

the world not dark
the world be love
shed no more tears
fly be the dove

this earth is peace
and must remain
the dark must fall
and love regain

awake dear one
born of your light
shine o'er all
shine in the night

Well rhythm, I'll take the bait that you have cast into the waters of Avalon.

In the early years of my adolescence, I had over a space of five years, about as many girlfriends. Then I met my first wife and was sure she was "the one." Our relationship had its ups and downs which I came to understand was quite normal. Deep down inside I was slowly beginning to realize though, that something didn't feel quite right.

A bit like riding a bike and having that ever present fear that a wheel was going to come off. It took just four and a half years for that wheel to finally come adrift and we separated. I vegetated for about six months before dipping my toe in the waters of romance again.

After another two years and a dozen relationships, I finally found a woman whom I thought was perfect. Now my first wife and I would have at least two flaming rows a week - this woman and I lived together for some six months and never even had a difference of opinion.

Perfection was how I would have described our relationship - and we all know that perfection is not attainable don't we? Sure enough, before the end of 1963 she had married her fiancee. Was I staggered? Of course I was.

Then in 1966 I met my present wife Elaine. She was nice, understanding and above all, as honest as the day was long. We were married in December 1967 and I can stand up and say with pride, that I had once again, found perfection. The difference being, that this time it has lasted.

In the forty odd years of our marriage, we have never argued. Sure, we have different opinions about some things, but hey, that's only human. I don't try to force my opinions down her throat and she doesn't try forcing hers down mine.

So my answer to your question rhythm, is that "Yes the perfect relationship is attainable." Both Elaine and I have found our soul mates - we have the same thoughts on many topics, and often make the same comments in unison.

Can't improve on that.

[rhythm]

What did i do to deserve you lot as my loverly friends !!!!
