Re-examing our goal -rjs

L E T ‘ S R E – E X A M I N E O U R G O A L

People of a pseudo-psychological leaning tend to judge our best goal(s) in life to be what they deem obvious. If our goal, however, has precious little to do with a so-called healthy, happy, inscrutably ‘wise’ humanly human, maybe we need to unfollow our learned counterparts!

Let’s throw off our obsession with humanity’s baubles and flirtations and ponder life’s most urgent question: how are we demonstrating our eternal life now? Are we even aware of it. For the majority of inhabitants of this planet the prognosis is not good.

Disease and death are unknown in Spirit, God. What good is this knowledge if we don’t intimately realize it? If we’re oblivious of Life which is God, how in the world do we think we can experience it? What’s there to break the illusion of life in a dying body? You certainly don’t think death can be a great enlightener, do you?

At the risk of being repetitive, the only way to awareness is to wake up! Be hands-down willing to roll up your sleeves and get dirty! Or, go back to sleep and we’ll talk again after a few hundred more years!

That thing you do -rjs

THAT THING YOU DO . . .

Do you have that thing you do automatically – oh, I don’t know, scratch, bite, grimace, squint, grunt, sigh, etc, ad nauseum?

Now I’m not trying to criticize, good grief, I’m just saying, isn’t that habit a confirmation of a lie that you’re starting to break down or break up or break out?
You know I wouldn’t mention anything so trivial and or silly if I weren’t leading up to something much more rewarding, right? – namely, that you can nip it in the bud and heal it forever!

You’re not getting older, wearing out, losing stamina coz, well, God isn’t. Everything God is you are; everything God has, you have, every place God is you are, everything God knows you know.

And God don’t grunt!

Quantum physics is discovering -rjs

QUANTUM PHYSICS IS FAST DISCOVERING THAT all around us right now, is a Kingdom where death does not exist, where there is not a single problem, where there is nothing as we know it with our human mind. There is a completely different universe present here now, in which none of the physical or mental images that we entertain are present.

Only remove what’s no longer serving -rjs

B R I G H T N E S S

Had a kinda strange convo with Spirit this morning. Without any provocation, I declared that yes I wouldn’t mind being a few degrees happier and I wouldn’t mind having a little tweaking of this and that issues and I wouldn’t mind . . . .

What was my point? I didn’t want to have a single annoyance or discomfort removed or favor granted UNLESS it was to further awaken me to Universal Love, Spirit.

And I meant it. It felt awfully good. I knew I was onto something, but I honestly didn’t know what!

For what it’s worth, what had begun as a kinda nondescript ho-hum, alright – lousy day, brightened up so brilliantly that I confess, I’m bedazzled!

Two precious strangers -rjs

I’ll never forget an experience of having my consciousness filled to the brim with God’s love in an elevator (‘lift’ in England) when two young women stepped in and one said to the other “Wow, I feel very good vibes in here!” I looked up and these two strangers were smiling at me!

Who or what are you? And I? -rjs

R E A C Q U A I N T IN G

Let’s get REACQUAINTED.
It’s all about identity.
Please don’t put up with
anything less than the real Me
And I’ll do likewise for you.

But who are you?
What do you see?
Actually it’s not what’s out there
that’s important, but
who’s doing the seeing.

Who or what is that
behind your eyes?
Who’s peering out and processing
and calling itself You?
It’s I Am, Self, Õne, God, you.

Go deeper still -rjs

B A C K T O C E N T E R

Get back to your center
And I will too.
Awakening is one by one by one,
starting with me.

Let’s go directly
right snack dab at the Source
and ask ourSelf
Is it well with my Soul?

Deeper and deeper
into that Precious Place
where pain and confusion
were never known.

Go deeper still
Do you see one eternal
All encompassing
immortal You?

Stay here now
Don’t go back.
Do not ever
go back.

To commune with Spirit -rjs

C O M M U N E W I T H S P I R I T

In order to commune with Spirit –
your real Be-ing –
you must sacrifice the notion
that all is fixed in matter.

There’s a ‘nother whole realm
of pure spirituality and bliss
known only through
Divine apprehension.

Your true selfhood hears
“Be still and know that I am God!”
and immediately drops
whatsoever to the contrary.
