GOAT HERDING

2014, THE PRESENT

JUNE 2, 2014

 

     How humble a job, you think. Watching over dull animals who need little but an occasional nudge, so little you find yourself daydreaming. Of what do you dream? Do you dream of a life that is faster and more glamorous, accepting that it comes with more responsibility and less time for daydreaming?

     Throughout all time, many a goatherd has dreamed of a different life, and the life that he dreamed, being lived by another, had its own dreamer who dreamed of the goatherd’s simple life. Why do we stand here, inside our selves, and look away, thinking that we would rather have what is outside our selves in the moment?

     It is our human nature, and not all together negative, to want something more than what we have in the moment—in most moments. To rise and grow and conquer ourselves, facing fears and deconstructing our false mythologies, we must see into the places that live beyond where we now stand. 

We must see beyond our flock of five to the flock of fifty, with weavers and dyers and drivers and stalls.  We must grow our selves/Selves.

     And all the while we are Becoming: becoming awake and aware, we must remain able to stay awake and aware of where we are Now. Now is the point at which we find ourselves, always. Without fail, Now is the place and the purpose, guided by our High Selves, Tribe Members, Guides, Angels, and other cosmic means, that gives us meaning. From Now, all roads depart, all signs point.

     Bring your Future into your Now. Do not leave your Now to go into your Future. There are those who can make such quantum leaps, but we are not speaking to them. We are speaking to You, who are growing your Selves in conscious increments, one gain at a time. Do not dwell so on your destination that you miss the sweet smell of the grass under your feet, the starlight, and the lowing of the animals.

     Bless your job and your place for what they are—not in comparison to what others have or what others are doing. Let your Now be singular. If you can’t bless your job or your place, is it due to false cosmology, false expectations, or ego concerns—or is your Spirit urging you to move forward?

     A happy trillionaire is no happier than a happy goatherd. An unhappy trillionaire is no unhappier than an unhappy goatherd. Their circumstances differ. Possibly, the people that they effect are affected differently in number and proportion. However you make your way in this genus of Earthly life, you herd something: services, products, or other things of valuation.

     Who are you in your Now—Now?  What is your current level of satisfaction in your Life, in all of the ways that matter: body, Spirit, emotion, community, Purpose, and faith?  You cannot correct falseness and disquiet through avoidance and denial.  

Take stock. Will you enjoy tonight’s starlight?

MOVING THE MOUNTAIN

2014, DOGMA, FAITH

June 1, 2014

 

     You sit in the meadow lamenting the day. The Mountain is beautiful, you say, but it will not move. You haven’t the strength of the mustard seed or the faith of the violet, who rise up like a warrior to face the day. Is it myth that this mountain will move at your will? What is a mountain?

     Think of the ages that have been and that will be. How many times has the face of Earth changed? How many times in your own body have cells replicated, died, and given themselves to new cells? It is not the nature of Life to be static. Life is movement and therefore, change. Today’s mountain is tomorrow’s valley.

Today’s canyon is tomorrow’s river. And the mountain is in you, always.

     What does this mean? It means that seismic activity is the harmonic underpinning of Earthly Life. Contraction and expansion is the breath of Great All. Vertical lift is required for the fall. To move the Mountain, you must allow for the seismic activity that it will require, the vertical lift of some matters and the fall of others.

     When we Move the Mountain, we displace whatever we have frozen in our thoughts and beliefs, our dogmatic holding onto the illusions of static continuance, traditions and permanence. We allow for the volcanic eruption that is needed, or for the release of pressures that cause the upthrust plates to glide gracefully back to a horizontal plane. Either route moves the mountain.

     Do you sit at this moment, reading these words from your mountain? Is it kind there? Have you placed yourself atop your mountain for the High view, or have you escaped, hoping to save the mountain from its natural erosion? What name has your mountain, and what purpose? Feel the Earth as you sit. What is the nature of Her Song?

She will tell you.  

Is it time to Move the Mountain?

CURSES

August 19, 2023|2014, POWER OF THOUGHT

May 29, 2014

     Do Curses exist?  To answer this, you must first define the nature of a Curse.  Is a Curse a string of words, a wish, or a living entity?  To what level must the energy of a person or animate entity be invested in a directed, active force in order for that force to override the natural, protective boundaries and free will of the person or place for which the maladaptive energy is intended?

     First, let us remind ourselves of the nature of Love:  the inborn goodwill and co-creative urge of the Great All that perpetuates the movement and continuation of existence.  Is Hate the opposite of Love?  Is a Curse the opposite of Love?  Neither Hate nor a Curse is the opposite of Love.  Love is the prime force.  Hate is an abhor-ation, deviation, and denial of what is.  Hate is grounded in fear, gluttony, jealousy, and destruction: smaller and mortal emotional measures.

     A Curse can also be grounded in those same or similar, small and mortal emotional measures.  But more, and sometimes worse, a Curse can also rise from the subconscious, unthoughtful and misguided belief system of an untrained or falsely trained group mind.  “You will never succeed in life without a college education,” stated as fact, carries with it, the energy of a Curse.

•     If you are not saved by the tenets of my religion, you will burn forevermore in agony
•    Like your parents, you will never amount to anything
•    Set your sights too high and you set yourself up for disappointment
•    You are not meant to be happy in this life; you are meant to be responsible
•    Our people are superior; we must show our ways to others however it is necessary
•    I created these circumstances in my life and must deal with them alone

     Your sciences show you with greater detail and enthusiasm as the years pass, how energy transfers through thought and action.  Plants that are soothsayed blossom and bloom, while those who receive negative messages wither and die.  Newborns deprived of touch fail to gain weight.  Widows and widowers die soon after their spouses.  War begets war.

     When you say a thing with authority, you create within the vibratory space of the Great All, a pattern of that thought and belief.  When you say to your neighbor:  I see you; I believe in you; I stand with you; I will help you; Let us help the world together, you are creating a vibration that sings into the great harmony something uplifting.  It is a joy to stand in the presence of that energy.

     When you say a thing with authority that states a vision of destruction, creating also a pattern of that thought belief, the song it sings into the harmony hits notes that hurt the very chords onto which you were sung.  It makes your heart hurt.  You have felt this when you received bad news, when you have suffered and felt loss, when someone wounded you.  That is the energy of Cursing.

     What is a Curse?  It is the singing of a thread, a thought, a wish, purposefully or subconsciously, into the vibratory space of Great All, that affects others in a way that is negative and hurtful.  Yes, it can be pointedly personal and dramatic—but it needn’t be.  You can point your finger at a child and scream, “Stupid!” and that vibration will haunt that child long after that body has passed the child growth and become an adult.

     What is a Curse?  Think long on this.  It is harm-doing.  It may be so whitewashed inside the picket fences of your socio-cultural programming, you fail to see it.  Look for it now, in all of the comfortable places you call home and Belief.  It is there, we promise you.  Any time you think yourself more or better, your are Cursing others for being less.

     Any time you believe that your ways are higher, you are Cursing someone for their place on the path.  Any time you fail to support the Love that you shelter, that great engine of Life that is entrusted you to bear for all of Eternity—you do not support Love.  It is that simple.

What do you Curse?  
And who Curses you?  
What steps will you take to break this cycle?

LOVE IS AN IMPETUS

          (NOT A DESCRIPTOR)

  

When you think of all the wonders of the world and beyond it, do you see those wonders in your Self? Do you see the perfectly balanced harmonies in the song that came together at your singing into existence? Do you know that Love is an impetus, a force, a primary function of Life that is basic and all-inclusive?

You believe that you seek Love, labor for Love, sacrifice for Love, are blinded by Love and slighted by Love. Love is an impetus. IT is. You are IT and IT is you, entwined. Love, entwined within you as an impetus, makes all of the first statements false. Love is never false or absent. You will never be blinded by Love, nor slighted by Love, nor asked to labor or sacrifice for it.

If your experience in Life has shown you a false face on Love, you are gazing at a mask that the human ego has used to paper over the true aspects of the Love Impetus. Love itself is not corruptible. It is the entity inside which it abides that is corrupt. It is the entity which holds the spark of Love that colors the veils outside it, that misrepresents it, that attends it with false labels.

Said simply: Love is pure. People are false.

Do you love your neighbor? Do you love that vase? Do you love this day? Do you love that carcass in the road? Do you love the victim and the slayer equally? How label you Love, and why? Have you taken the largest creative force known in Great All and compressed it into a tiny word? Have you now made that word tepid and false, random and ubiquitous? It’s no wonder that people are confused.

What is Love?

Love is the prime impetus of All there is. It is the propulsion, automation and animation that keeps the first spark moving and adapting and perpetuating. Love is Life and Aliveness. Love is the foodstuff and energy and mechanics that allow for movement and transmutation. It is the breath that causes expansion and contraction. Love is the magical ingredient. The prime mover. The divine source. The ultimate.

And yes, it is in You; in all of Us. Seek not outside your Self for Love. It is there inside you, where it was born into you. The more you connect to the Love outside yourself, the more cognizant you grow with the Love inside—the brighter leaps its fires.

See Love as the Impetus that it is. 

Feel that Impetus. 

Let it lead you. 

Love is ever pure.

SUBTERFUGE FOR CO-CREATING

August 17, 2023|2014, CO-CREATING, SUBTERFUGE

MAY 27, 2014

 

     We have discussed many ways to use Subterfuge in order to build your Character, and now we speak of one of the greatest, for without impedance, Co-Creating is your greatest gift. To make something, where once there was ‘nothing’ is a joy like no other.

    Whether or not you are aware of this gift, it is awake and aware of you, perpetually. But, to do this with grace and forethought—that is the high gift of the Maige. It takes many levels gained as an initiate to reach this perfect ability to manifest form from the raw materials of the Great All. The amazement of watching it done by someone who is master of the process is beyond comparison.

    To use Subterfuge in practicing this role is the same as any other, though for most, this starring role is much further away. Many lifetimes as an understudy, or even a stage hand, will be required before you can wear the robes and tread the boards as a High Maige of Co-Creating. So, why then, do we speak of this? To inspire you . . .

    And, certainly, you can take on the Subterfuge of Manifestation, to attract the events, conditions, persons, and material goods that you would like to experience in your life. Much information is already given to these methods in your archives there. See these things with you, as you would have them with you, in your present, with grace and thanks.

     

     Accept the things you wish to attract as they are, how they are, in the time that they are.  If you build limiting conditions around Co-Creating, you limit the channels through which they can travel and communicate with you.  

Grow your I AM, in your role as a Co-Creator.

    See what is. Question what will be. Understand your conditioning and your Belief system, and especially your gifts and challenges. Co-Creation is a modality meant to be used in the highest order, not focused in the unrealistic minutea of improbabilities that have little to do with Spiritual growth and fulfillment.

    A True Co-Creator does not waste time in small ideas. Someone called to world service would not likely long to be a prima ballerina in a company of females—especially when that someone was male, crippled, and growing on in mortal years. Small focal points form knots.  Co-Creators follow loose lines that move through many distances and ideas, gaining from each field of influence they touch.

    Wear the role of Co-Creator through Subterfuge first, and try on your creations for their fitness.  Are your following the graceful arc of the lemniscates, the eternal arc, or are you tying a knot?

SUBTERFUGE FOR RESPONSIBILITY

I am The One.  That is a helpful statement.  It indicates that you alone can do, see, 

or affect something in a certain way.  I Am The One.

 I Am The One.  I Am Responsible.

...

For what are you Responsible?  Your actions and behaviors are primary responsibilities.  You are responsible for listening to, and following, your inner guidance.  You are responsible for interacting with others in a way that reflects integrity:  honor, honesty, and compassion.  This is a difficult path.

We all fail in myriad ways and at myriad times.  In certain instances, however, the matters in play are too important to broach failure.  Who will feed the helpless baby, if not you?  But you are tired and ill, alone and without resources.  What will you do?  How do you rise to that responsibility?  Can you determine your next movement, using the mentality of one defeated—who is tired and ill, alone and without resources?  Not very likely.

What if you took on the role of lead character, and wore the Subterfuge of Responsibility?  I am tired and ill, but the show must go on?  I am alone, as a mortal adult, but only for the moment:  this baby is here with me, who is a Spirit, just as I am a Spirit, and my guides and guardians are with me always.  I am not without resources, because in the Great All, a place of co-creation, resources are abundant.

We are not saying that you will miraculously be un-tired and un-ill, that the baby will be un-hungry, and you will suddenly be surrounded by other loving adults who will bring with them exactly the resources that you need.  However, as a certainty, nothing can be accomplished by thinking with a defeatist attitude that perpetuates the problem you wish to defeat.

As the lead character, Responsibility, you must think like the character would think in a similar situation.  Change the situation and its energy by changing the way you interact with the situation.  What new terms do you come to?  Perhaps you ask a neighbor, friend, or family member for assistance or barter and in doing so, discover a resource that bears out for your future.  This could apply in many ways.

One can never say where today’s road might lead, for any path turns many times and connects ahead to many roads more.  When you are decision-making from a role of Responsibility, more opportunities come present for you.  It is not possible to make excuses, and blame external circumstances for your current ones.  Your power comes back to you.

Your power comes back to you.

Blaming divides your power.  Apathy shrinks your power.  Denial locks your power away.  Do you want the full use of your personal power?  Call it home, unobstructed.  Until you can do this in a way that is clear and meaningful, use the power of Subterfuge to play the leading role.  Your ability to Respond, rather than React, will grow quickly.  While Reaction leads you to a closed end, Response opens like a petaled wheel of possibilities.

Subterfuge for Responsibility is one of the greatest roles you will ever play.  

Its merits lead to many more.  

Make your performance stellar, and see how IT make YOU.

SUBTERFUGE FOR PROTECTION

David faces down Goliath. Gandhi faces down the British establishment. You face down a tormentor, shore up a leaking dam, go into the dark to repair the broken fence and bring back the dying animal. The Subterfuge of Compassionate Mightiness was taken on and used for self/Self and others in order to protect life, dignity, equity, and harmony.

Perhaps the hero is part of your character from birth; perhaps not. Perhaps it leaps out at you when it is needed, and you thrust your self into the role. Still, do you think that one hero has passed through the halls of this human mortality who did not suffer fear and doubt? Do you think that any hero has not to some degree, worn a form of Subterfuge?

When the conditions arise and protection is needed, you may balk. Why me? I’m not strong enough to do this—or bold enough, or brave enough, or skilled enough. Perhaps. But, perhaps there is no one else to do this thing that needs doing in that moment. Can it be you? Can you take on the Subterfuge of hero and do this thing that needs doing?

What happens when the person who needs protection is your self/Self? What happens when the only person who can protect you IS you? Many allow themselves to say ‘yes’ when they mean ‘no’, to make excuses for unfair and abusive treatment from others, and to place themselves in harm's way for the exchanges they receive, Believing them to be equitable.

What happens when you play the role of Protector, beginning with your Self? What happens when you balance the conditions in your own life first, when you recognize your own value and your own place in the communities—when you see the give and take of life and your place in it? How can you be your own hero?

Many people consider themselves last, whether due to socio-cultural training, a burden of responsibilities, fear, doubt, closure to love and acceptance, or comfort with smallness.  

If you stay small and unworthy, you will not be expected to produce great things. That seems simple and apparent. The world is keeping you from producing great things, with its great weights and responsibilities, with its inabilities to see you and understand who you are and what you fear. Right?

How would your personal hero feel about those conditioned thoughts and beliefs? How would you be the star of a theatre production, its hero, thinking thoughts such as these?

Train for the role of star. Build your role as hero. You are not small and unworthy. Heroes cannot be small, nor unworthy. How could they produce results? The world cannot keep a hero from producing great things. Its weights and responsibilities are markers for what needs doing. If the world fails to see and understand the hero, it is not fault of the hero, but the fault of the world. The hero continues, and brilliantly, giving and seeking to serve and do good.

How do your lines as hero, Great Protector, read? What is a hero’s language? What does a hero see when he looks upon the world and sees how he may be of service? Using Subterfuge for Protection, you will come to know your hero, and in doing so, will know your value.
