 SERVICE

     ~ compassion in action

What is Service to Humanity, or Service to any group? Is it Sacrifice? Assistance? Mediation? Sharing? Diplomacy? Compassion? Teaching? Peace-keeping? War-making? The answers are as varied as the opponents who would argue against the same.

Do you give Service when you set strong boundaries for a person intent on harming themselves or others? What if by saving that person, he or she goes on to kill a thousand in the future, alone and unstable without someone to set strong boundaries for them again? How then, does the first act of saving that person from themselves appear to your heart and mind—to your compassion—according to a future outcome such as that?

• Service cannot be measured in these terms. We will state this once more: 
• Service cannot be measured in these terms.

Service is any act given in compassion and truth that at the time, is perceived to benefit the highest good. Let that act stand alone. 

Do not think it forward. “If I give this person money, will they spend it on agents for self destruction (drugs or alcohol, etc.) rather than agents for good (food, shelter, clothing, etc.)?”   

    

Offer Service in the moment, according to what can best be perceived as the action supporting the highest good. If you believe that the highest Service is inviting a person to shelter and food rather than giving them money for shelter and food, by all means, offer that form of Service. There is no need to judge, except within yourself, whether or not you are rightly hearing how you are called to act. 

The boundaries of Service are governed by your abilities to see and perceive them, negotiate them, and integrate them into your life. Service is not only a matter for humanity. It includes everything that exists in the Great All. Everything that crawls, swims, flies, walks, and wanders amid the glories of Gaia and her Ethers are included in your opportunities for Service, as well as the other realms wherein dwell your Spirit Brethren.

Service is the outflow of your Divine Self to others, when given in its highest form. It is Love, given purely. It may come wrapped with different faces, but its core is that of Great All, recognized and shared, and therefore made manifest and multiplied.

SUPPLANTING DESIRE

SUPPLANTING DESIRES, 2020 AUGUST 13

SUPPLANTING DESIRE

     ~ identifying the motivation of false cues

Supplanting Desire, once it has become an obsession, is a difficult but necessary task. Left to thrive, out-of-control Desires overshadow necessary and reasonable tasks, recalibrating your relationship to the world and to others.

Desire rises when concerns for the self rise; it rises when you feel a pathological need for withdrawal and survival. If you are living in conditions that feed these illusions, it can be particularly dangerous, a false voice that is also a driving force.

• Circumstances, shaped by your abilities and resources, form the infrastructure for your Desires. Add ego, perception, belief, and mortality . . . and you make a potion for High humanitarian success, or destructive brutism.

What is it your Desire, and why do you Desire it? Would achieving your Desire feed your human ego, or your Eternal Spirit? Would achieving your Desire help only your self, or would it help Great All at large?

On planet Earth today, Desires are rising . . . and while great Desires can infuse the Spirit in a Triumph of Nature, it also fragments, rends, and further separates those who might otherwise work together.

Check in with your agenda. Feed only the Desires that create Higher conditions, for your self, your family and community, and your world. Be part of the energy that mends fractures rather than widening them.

We feel your pain. Listen. You must rise above it.

WORK

WORK, 2020 AUGUST 12

WORK

     ~ placing efforts accordingly

What is Work? Is this a word describing activity, or must it produce something? Does Work refer to a Career or Occupation that earns money? Must you produce something tangible, or can the results of your efforts be realized only in the personal and non-tangible dimensions?

You are familiar with the old adage that what “men” build will fall? That time brings decay is a well-accepted idea. What happens though, when your Work builds something in the non-physical realm, something able to rise and maintain a presence, without decay?

When you make a hard-won realization, changing your behaviors to reflect this shift, you have created something in your Eternal Self that will abide. Though its tenets may change again, you etch it into your being, even if it becomes merely a platform for further change.

When your “Work” is personal and internal, it still has an effect in the outer world. It still has the power to affect others in pleasant and positive (or negative and destructive) ways. Have you recently Worked towards having more compassion, and gained it? Have you developed patience? Can you now see and understand things that a year ago, were invisible for you?

How do these new understandings affect those whom you influence? Would you say that this Work has created a valuable product? Is that product love and acceptance? Are you more open-minded, contemplative, or non-judgmental than you were? Upon reflection, how valuable, and how timeless, is this work?

While the Works that you produce with your mind and your body change over the years, relative to your interests and abilities, we hope that your Eternal Self is experiencing an upward growth. We hope that your Work becomes an epic gift to Great All and that this Work’s life expands far beyond what you can now see and contemplate.

Our Work is to help you do your Work. Please ask.

WAVEFORMS

2020, ACCEPTANCE, RESISTANCE

WAVEFORMS, 2020 AUGUST 11

WAVEFORMS

     ~ negotiating life's flow

Go with the flow. You have heard this expression. Most likely, the person who is inviting you into the flow, means that you will meet less resistance by being the smooth rock in the river, letting the water find its way around you rather than standing against its force, attempting to form a dam.

With certain Waveforms this task of going with the flow will seem effortless: long, undulating, singular waves are buoyant and easy to slide through and commingle with. These forms are nurturing. The longer the wave and the shorter the ratio between its peaks and valleys, the more stable and pleasant it feels—like floating on a calm ocean, its movement soft under your back.

Imagine those peaks increasing, like waves growing higher. 

Your attention also peaks as you are moved to and fro, not sure where you will travel. You may feel the need to tether yourself, to use muscle energy or psychic energy, or to surrender to the idea that when you are brought to shore, you will be removed from your point of entry, further and further from that point in direction relationship to the amount of time you are subject to that Waveform.

What happens when you are subject to a Waveform of a different shape, that is box-like or sharp at its top, jolting even, sideways or dizzying? Can you go with that flow? Is this a good representation of excitation—and stress? How does the Waveform of positive excitation and negative excitation differ? How does it lift you, sustain you, and let you down? How do you respond at each of those stages?

To go with the flow is not limited to the matter of softness or effort-free endeavors. To go with the flow is to be in the moment, whatever that moment is. Masters, while in a Waveform of destruction, will seek to tame that form: the parting of the waters; the calming of the storm; the calling of the rain, the cease-fire.

Can you walk into a room of chaos and bring peace? Can you be confronted by hatred and offer Love in return? Can you face ignorance and darkness and offer Wisdom and Light?

Can you be that rock in the river, that beautiful, longform-wave of unconditional love and acceptance amidst raging peaks and bursts of blame and smallness? Can you hold the Waveform of Love as the world holds its own around you?

WAVEFORMS AND THE I AM

2020, FAR VISION, GROUP COGNITION, IDENTITY, INDIVIDUAL, INDIVISIBLE

WAVEFORMS AND THE I AM, 2020 AUGUST 10

WAVEFORMS AND THE I AM

     ~ the many minds of higher consciousness

Many factors influence how you come to be Who you are. The first is your Eternal Spark, your template, the Song into which you are Sung, the Master plan of YOU. This is your basic nature and core, Who you are when all other influences are stripped away.

Between the factors and fells of influences that add to your greater Song, your core nature and original Song will always remain the conductor. It is the Waveforms in which you indulge yourself or become subject to that add to and embellish your base nature, make more complex and richer, the basic nature of your Eternal Song or Spark. 

While there are differences in every entity’s Creative completions, the more complex the Song, the greater the influences, and therefore, the greater the time spent in accumulating, contemplating, and experiencing the richness of conditions that add to the symphony of Self.

It begins with observance and moves to a first incarnation, using Higher guidance to seek appropriate Waves and Waveforms which will assist the Self in understanding and growth. This may occur first as time of entry, given factors such as harmonic resonance and planetary alignments. Point of entry is next considered: social structures and hierarchies, beliefs and meanings that are appropriate to what is needed to be met, absorbed . . . or resisted.

Karmic or Tribal grouping are also considered, such as which mortal families may be best suited for the entering Spirit and its goals. And lastly, the body itself: which gender, what abilities, gifts and challenges. Personality has its character: Spirit is not denude of that. The Great All is not peopled by mindless personalities lacking character or individuality, no matter how you think or believe of it.

We are a chorus of many minds, many Tribes, many personalities . . . and as such, we are a symphony such as cannot be conceived with the human mind. So rich and textured, and so unlimitedly, multi-dimensional, your sciences would stand in awe of the shapes that we form: indescribable, alive, immediate and consensual. Your universe is but one node among many nodes in a web of aliveness that knows no ending and no beginning. 

Still, this does not describe where you are, what this is, who WE are, and who YOU are.

Know this: You did not arise as mishap or afterthought, or like a brew fomenting, looking for some viable means to survive. You Are. AND you will continue to be. We are the I AM. You are the I AM. All together We are the I AM.

It is based on this premise that you chose the Waveforms into which you incarnated. Do you feel your life to be difficult?  Can you imagine why you might have chosen this life? Can you imagine why you were led to this life? Can you allow yourself to feel the moment, connecting it to your present, when you made the conscious choice to step into this life—when you said “Yes”?

If the Waveform you are currently experiencing feels tiring, seek to rise vibrationally above it. Seek to throw off the lower vibrations in favor of the higher vibrations, for the Higher always subverts the Lower. Do this through Will, through Voice, through Dance, through chanting and meditation. Seek it purely and it will embrace You—You at your core, who remembers this whole process and that place from which you have begun your journey.

How is a Song made, except that it is woven together? How is a Tapestry made, except that it is woven together? How is a painting made, except that it is woven together? 

Once-separate parts are urged to meet and stay met to create a new thing. Waveforms from the I AM answer the call and from wherever in the Great All they exist, they come to the point of desire, meet and commingle, co-creating with the Weaver.

What Waveforms were called together to Co-Create You? What Sings to you as you look out at your world? Which of Its aspects do you most strongly feel? How do you respond to It? How do you represent It? Does the water call you? The fire? The air? The soil?

Do you know the voices of the animals or the plants? What know you of the secret urgings of the human heart and how it ails? Which starseeds inside you speak of foreign climes, and how might that be brought to bear in solving the world’s current challenges? The Great All is composed of the many faces of the great I AMs.

Together, Singing, the great I AMs, make the ONE I AM. And while we may beat as ONE heart, we can also, each of us, be known as one cell. Our ONE Mind is composed of many minds. This is our strength and our beauty.

 I AM.

IN SILHOUETTE

IN SILHOUETTE, 2020 AUGUST 09

IN SILHOUETTE

     ~ short-hand for assessment

When something is seen In Relief or In Silhouette, your attention is drawn to a specific point, whether that point represents a person, place or a thing. It allows you to give the surrounding field of vision a backseat to what is Primary. It allows for greater focus.

Think of an emotionally evocative portrait. Without the busy-ness around it, you will spend more time and energy studying the person portrayed. You will notice things that you might not have otherwise. Just as the Bokeh effect, the softening of the field around a subject, helps you to focus, seeing something In Silhouette, even without its details, allows for something similar.

If you saw the Silhouette of an elephant, all dark with no features, you will still know that you are looking at an elephant, if you have previously seen one. You will know the Silhouette of a tree, a dog or cat, a house with a roof, an automobile. Even without distinguishing features, a Silhouette becomes a focus, a reference, a type of shorthand.

Professionals use items In Silhouette exactly to create the shorthand-effect. A circle may represent unity, a square intellect, and a triangle balance. Even without further detail, a shape alone will have a direct emotional effect. If you were seen In Silhouette, a dark space with light behind you, what would others see?

Does your strength and purpose radiate from your form? Do you move with confidence and assurance? Does your Silhouette radiate something attractive or repellent? Think of the last person you saw only In Silhouette and remember what thoughts you formed about them. Do you believe you were correct?

How does the Silhouette of a person on a bicycle compare with a person on a motorcycle, in a poor car, an expensive car, a truck, a boat, a hang glider? Before you can manage the details of a thing, you must manage the largest picture. Begin there. See your self In Silhouette and study that presentation. Change that presentation wherever it does not harmonize with your purpose.

UNFETTERING

UNFETTERING, 2020 AUGUST 08

UNFETTERING

     ~releasing self from personally imposed governors

When you find your self interacting with life, dragging along your past and outdated beliefs and worries, it is time to become Unfettered. In fact, it is past time to become Unfettered.

Check in with who and what you are. How would you describe your self to someone who you want to impress? To someone with whom you want to “fit in” or be accepted by? To someone with whom you wish to express compassion and/or regret? Do these versions of who and what you are match? If they are different, why are they different? 

Hopefully, your Truths, Tenets, Beliefs, and Coda have changed throughout your life, and hopefully they have changed for the Higher. If you look closely, you will find at least one area that has not changed, a sticking point. What is that area for you?

Like many, the Beliefs and Tenets of childhood and early culture still cling. You may believe in reward-and-punishment: in life, in work, in religion, in karma. You may believe that you must work very hard to achieve things, or that no matter how hard you work, you will never achieve what you desire. You may believe that certain conditions or events are punishments for some behavior past.

While you should work to confront and resolve the UNtruths in your life, the punishments and hold-backs you believe in may not be real at all. What if you did not believe in good-and-evil, right-and-wrong, reward-and-punishment? What if you believed in doing the very best that you can do, without judgment, and letting the rest Unfetter itself from dogma, stigma, and the rigor of ideas that have passed their usefulness.

How would it feel to be Unfettered? How would it feel if you had amnesia for all of the things in your life you remember as bad, wrong, a sin, regretful, mean, evil, or otherwise hurtful? What if you only remembered what was good, right, a blessing, a grace, a lightness, or otherwise uplifting and beneficial? Try those feelings on. How do you soften? How does it brighten the horizon?

We speak to each of you: the Fetters of your life and existence are chains of your own making. While many conditions cannot be released, because socio-cultural restrictions hold them tight (race, gender, economic status, etc.), your self-imposed conditions can be immeasurably improved. Be kind to your self and clear the way. Your Unfettering will bring about great change.
