THE DARK GNARLS

Tangled, close, and dark environments are not always ominous. They are not always a cage. Sometimes, The Dark Gnarls in your pathways are an opportunity to slow down and rest, to enjoy the shade and take time to study the complex patterns around you.

 

All Things exist in layers. You may interact with the superficial layer of something, or you may choose to engage a person, place, thing, or phenomenon in its deeper layers, studying not only its face, but its intention, its source, and its purpose. This builds wisdom and understanding.

 

If you are currently navigating The Dark Gnarls, take a deep breath and study the aspects of your path. If you see Dark Gnarls on your horizon, prepare to be quiet and contemplate. And if The Dark Gnarls are in your rearview, embrace the world with your new understanding, your new lens.

 

Like compression and expansion, areas of knots and tangles will stretch again, making new connections, and new Gnarls. Rather than fret over this pattern, engage it with awareness, letting this phenomenon work for you.

 SOLITARY ZEAL

When new Ideas burn, you must make haste to harvest and employ them. By your intuition, you know which ones are worthy of integration and growth. You must find the Solitary Zeal to launch new creations, the re-thinking or first-thinking of an opportunity to add to Great All’s pantheon.

Who but one person creates a wave? Many might find a similar idea together, in a sort of “Whisperer” kind of way, where each was deeply listening when the wave gathered and crested. Still, each person will filter, integrate, understand and deploy their action through their own filters and their own style of distribution.

Solitary Zeal is necessary: by itself, for itself, in and of itself. The world may never see or understand your idea. The world may fail to make room for it, acknowledge it, or validate it. You must continue. You must embody the Solitary Zeal, to be strong and sure in your self, and to proceed without additional help on the earth plane.

However: your Guides and Helpers are always available to assist. So do not worry that you have no support; that is myth. Worry only that you stay True to your Idea and your Ideals. Birth the new condition or structure. Create what begs Creating.

Solitary Zeal is the first match that lights that first flame. It needs no recognition other than its drive to exist. When this new flame begins to grow, it Illuminates. It brings others to the flame. There, you will create exponentially. There, you shift the What-Is.

Open your eyes, your heart, and your mind. When Deep Inspiration employs you, make peace with the Solitary Zeal that is required to Manifest all things.

 DREAMS

Dreams are an extension of thoughts and feelings. They are navigators, companions, teachers, and prognosticators. Dreams are the waken self communicating with the subconscious, unconscious, and superconscious self. They can be medicine.

How do you use your imagination? Do you easily construct what-will-be, what-was, what-is, and what-I-will-Make? Are your Dreams a reflection of daily life or are they a separation from your day-to-day, so much so that you look forward to your Dreams? How many times have your Dreams led you to make decisions you would not have made in their absence?

We do not debate the source, cognizance, or interpretation of Dreams. We communicate to you that your Dreams are tools that can be used, programmed, and explored. Dreams are part of wish fulfillment; they assist in bringing to light those things in the shadow; they help to uncover unconscious urges and fears; they connect us to the great web of Life.

How is your day, today? If you could “Dream” your day differently, what would you change, and how would that change your potentials, shifting the future that is tomorrow? If you Dream today that you are a satisfied and enthusiastic artistic painter, will you paint? Can you see in your mind’s eye how that will change your present and your future? How will this Dream of Painting change YOU?

Urges manifest through Dreams. Hidden clues expose themselves. Fears emerge. Latent talents speak. Dreams are not merely films, or arbitrary and meaningless engagements. Dreams are guideposts.

For the next thirty days, record your Dreams. Look for patterns. See your self in the patinas of what these Dreams show you. Who are you now, and who are you in thirty days? You will find that by paying attention to your Dreams, you become more harmonically aligned and closer to the ideal self, understanding more and taking action with more authority.

 PARTING

The act of Parting is one of making separation or creating more perceived distance between two entities. Because all things are connected and remain connected, the act of Parting and the condition of being Apart is a distinction only, indicating that for the present moment, things considered are behaving in ways that are maximally independent.

Is someone you love distanced from you by emotions or geography? Time or perceived death? Understand that these are perceptions. Sometimes these shifts are made in agreement, and sometimes they are made as a matter of course, with one, two, or many parties making singular decisions regarding how they will stay connected to the hub and to what degree.

Being Parted is not synonymous with being disconnected. Once connected, always connected, unless elaborate rituals are carried through to disconnect and disembody the energies one wishes to separate from: a high and complex set of principles. Focused Parting is best used when one desires to be maximally independent from the influence of negative factors.

Would you like to be Parted from destructive habits? You must become maximally independent of those habits by shifting your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, to reflect the energies with which you wish to dovetail—away from those energies from which you wish to be Parted. Do as you would be. Think as you would be. Feel as you would be.

Think of a river breaking into streams. Each stream will know its own journey with its own set of influences, and at some point return to the sea, commingling with the river from which it Parted. Life is that way: a series of Partings and Unions.

When you learn to look at Partings for opportunities, you will see them in a new Light.

 SYMPATHY

The mortal world has various views on Sympathy. Is it to pity? Is it to lessen? Is it to separate or divide? Think of how your culture specifically reacts with its grieving population: Do they treat the widow of a recognized war hero differently from the widow of an avowed murderer of innocent masses? Which widow might feel more emotional pain, isolation, guilt, suffering, shame, and burden?

How does your culture view its orphans, its homeless, its very poor, its insane, its displaced, and its incarcerated populations? Do they treat each group the same, or do they blame some, and hold others blameless? How is the regional/ cultural/ social Sympathy applied to these peoples?

What of unique populations that are considered dangerous to the culture that contains them? Whether we speak of Lepers, masses of unexpected immigrants, war- or disease- orphaned families, violent persons, or enslaved others, does the Sympathy given come with a negating dose of justification that explains why the entrapment, injustice, cruelty, or torture, is necessary and vindicated?

What is Sympathy? Is it the state of looking upon a lesser condition and being moved by pity, or feeling compassion for the state of the entity involved? You remember the difference between Looking and Seeing. Your mortal self, led by ego, fears involvement with anything that reduces the current state of the mortal self, whether that be physical comfort, status, or standing. Your current beliefs and fears have formed an illusory ground beneath you, causing you to feel false security—your standing—where you make your stand, the place from which you view your world and label things. Your current brand of Sympathy is birthed from your standing and filtered from all the riggings your ego, your busy mind, and your mortal self, have constructed for it.

But . . . real Sympathy is Accord. It is a very High and very Pure state, driven by what is Eternal. And as we frequently remind you/You, you/You are part of That Eternity.

When you Have Sympathy, you Become Sympathy: that is . . . you begin to harmonize with the conditions of what is needed, accepting with unconditional love, and without false judgment, what is presented. We often need to fill uncomfortable spaces with words and objects, and ceremonies that have long ago lost their meaning, when what is needed is what is Real and True.

Imagine that you are the grieving widow. Person ‘A,’ with whom you are well acquainted, enters the reception line at the funeral. Though you are exhausted and feeling only half in your body, the tenseness of Mrs. A is palpable. She does not want to be here. She does not want to see you like this. She’s very glad your sister is in town, so that she was not ask to step up and fulfill those selfsame duties. She’s been practicing what to say, but when she gets to you, she falters, and like the people before her, says, “I’m so sorry for your loss . . .”

Mrs. A has erected a fence. Each person who will not come into Accord with the widow’s grief, rejects the widow’s grief. Instead of being a support system for the widow, the widow is being asked to be a support system for those in attendance, because death makes them uncomfortable.

Extending Sympathy is a state of being entirely present for What Is . . . As It Is . . . 

Wholly . . . Without Condition . . . Without A Price. 

Sympathy conveys the message: “We see You. You are Here with Us and 

We are Here with You. Always. We Understand. 

There is Love. For You. For Me. For All of Us. 

It Is Everywhere, and UnEnding.”

Sympathy is not pity. 

Sympathy is Accord. 

Accord is the state of Great All, 

and The Great All is All That Is.

When you share Sympathy, you are in the Moment, 

sharing All That Is, and at perfect Accord with the Heart of Great All. 

It is the greatest Illumination . . . and It is called Love.

 THE WAY

The Way is more than the path before you; it is the collaboration of behavior, experience, and intention that plots the points on the map ahead. It tells you when to walk softly, when to sit and rest, and when to move with great speed and authority. The Way works in tandem with the Spirit and Soul, helping to move you ahead, and also making sure that you meet with the beneficial points between doorways.

The Way is your Dance combined with your Song. It is how you move and why you move. It calibrates what you would like to experience with the delight of what you didn’t consciously know you should or would experience. The Way is your tour guide, your confidante, your companion.

At what point do you currently stand? What point appears on your horizon? Which points between seem most likely to be experienced? How do all the points change as you move? Which shifts in the great tapestry bring the greatest delight?

You may come to wisdom through difficult and even tragic circumstance; you may gain wisdom through deep study and solitude. You may acquire authority by external means or by internal. You may meet your self at age 40 or 100. You may move with purpose, and you may move when you are forced. The Way guides it all.

Way: mode/ manner/ perspective

When your mode, manner, and perspective is Loving, The Way guides you in Loving Ways. When your mode, manner, and perspective is Diminishing, The Way guides you in Diminishing Ways. It is your self that programs The Way. To experience the Highest and most Loving journey, make sure your input is helpful and true.

SHUSHAN

 from Hebrew: “lotus or lily, to feel joyful or cheerful”

Do you expect Joy?

 Do you believe that attaining

 Joy will offer Satisfaction?

Is Joy a goal?

Look at the Lily. Does the Lily expect Joy, chase it, believe that it will lead to the next (and better) thing? Does the Lily enjoy the soil, its roots, the crawling and wriggling things? The sun and the stars and the moon and the rain? Does the Lily enjoy What-Is-Already-Here?

Does the Lily feel complete? Connected? Does the Lily feel its Purpose? Does it give and receive Joy? Does it Listen and does it Sing? Is a Lily’s life balanced and whole? Is a Lily’s life complete?

How does your Life compare to the Lily? If you are contemplating Life, you must be at least grateful for the ability to contemplate. What else can you be grateful for?
