Greetings community of explorers,
As we energize a new world through our dance into the New Year, it is clear we have the opportunity to cut through illusion of divisiveness and separation.
Saturn, the hidden teacher and its influence reveals the thought forms that no longer support us. Saturn can be a harsh teacher and Neptune reveals the hidden wisdom of the waters of the human subtle consciousness. Contemplating that we are within a field of energy, we may directly perceive a dance of continuous transformation. The maras and their displays feed upon separation, ‘isms’ and it is a freer human who decides to connect with the heart of shared humanity.
What is the heart of shared humanity?
It is that as we live on the Earth, we are sustained by her pulse beat and sun in conversation with the heart of the galaxy. Thus we are all riding on a wave. Just as the sun has cycles of change, we too have the opportunity to step out of the net of illusion and to acknowledge every being as a relative.
What does it mean, the net of illusion?
Thought is energy and energy is neither created nor destroyed – energy is changed through our application. When ignorance promulgates energy of fear, “them,” “us,” separation, not enough, let us recall that this field can be like a waterbed and for whoever’s jumping up and down, the wave touches everyone. I invite you to sit in your sacred space and let the waves of compassion flow through you that the reactive states become flows of mutual respect and understanding. Understand that ignorance feeds on suffering and separation. What we say or do to another, also impacts our own well being. The cold heart that does not feel for those who are avoiding or running from danger magnetizes dissonance.
Like cleaning deep into the cellar of the human mind, we see the expression of “them being less worthy,” “us being more worthy,” and forgetfulness that the water is a well from whence we all drink, and that air sustains us all. As pollutants are carried in the air, our thoughts can contribute to the pollutants of aggression when we neglect the heart resonance with the pulse of Earth and Sky.
There is an old saying that when love is withheld the waters descend into the Earth – the Indigenous way of saying that when we do not care for each other, the sustaining waters of life retreat. Let us dive deeply into the water of clear awareness and see those hidden thought forms without adding to them or taking away. Sense the heart’s permeability as we hear the cries of those beyond the horizon and we recognize our neighbors.
Doing good deeds is easy. When you see a hungry person, offer them food. When you’re going to the store, ask the Elders – may I bring something back for you? The deepest level of kindness is to not be hypnotized by the belief that others are less worthy. Such thought forms are meant to separate the human family from awareness of co-creation.
From emptiness arises light and sound – with sound and light gives rise to form, for a moment it appears solid, yet we ourselves are continually changing. Let this New Year reveal appreciation for one’s own life and also for others.
How do you wish the world to be?
A world of beauty is made manifest when we cultivate words of kindness and right action and when we observe the arising poisons as not our own. These arising poisons are generated through grasping at the identity of “them” and “us.” In truth, there is no “other” – we are all part of a dynamic field.
Let us energize the voice of mutual respect and co-operation.
The bully’s behavior, like bullies in a schoolyard is not acceptable, nor do adults choose such behavior. Such behaviors are a reactive state when forgetting that in each moment, we may transmute the poisons of avarice, hate, greed and aggression.
Ultimately, luminous potential is present and experienced according to our view and action.
In recognizing any such appearance of separation in our own mind as empty as the space between atoms and subatomic particles, we may generate the creative wave of a compassionate human family arising. The vibration of our sun, the vibration of our hearts, cries for love and the magnetic fields arising are a conversation of loving transformation.
May this New Year support deep insight manifesting as loving kindness, joyful abundance, mutual respect and co-operation with family, clan, nations and all beings.
You are
the singer and the song.
We are the chorus and the wave that nurtures a world of beauty.
Sincerely Yours,
Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo
