THE HEALING REALM OF GOD
When you come into the presence
of Christ, there is only God.
Germs and disease, discord and fear
are nowhere to be found.
Do you really think this is the same
dimension that forbade walking on water?
Multiplying food, walking through walls –
all perfectly natural in the
Healing Realm Of God.
Futile exasperation
In the Spiritual realm,
all is perfection as
we have the mind of Christ.
But in the merely mental realm
There’s so much darkness,
selfishness and fear.
Both realms are closer to us
than our very breathing:
and so we flip back and forth.
in futile exasperation.
We cannot hold onto both realms
simultaneously and sanely
although we seem to think we do.
Happy, joy-filled Life is God
SOMETIMES A FEELING
Is indicative of whether a person
Has understood a spiritual statement
Correctly, or not.
For example “I no longer live.
My Father lives through me and
I just go along for the ride!”
If one “feels” like they’re giving up
Living their own creative,
Joy – filled life –
They’ve entirely missed the point.
That happy, joy-filled, creative Life
Is God.
Not Selfie-taker
Not the egotistical “I”, the selfie-taker, Selfie-doer, selfie-lover “I”
Good grief, No!!!
But the ” I ” of the real
“You” <== That !!! That right there!!!
Is Go.
Self (God) – awareness
OUR SELF (GOD) – AWARENESS
Knows itself by being itself:
Self-illuminating, Self-knowing,
Self-aware.
This is our knowing of our experiences.
By, in, through, and as Self.
Awareness is irreducible,
Indestructible.
Self-aware (God) isn’t known by
Another mind.
Being itself, it knows itself.
We, too, simply need to BE
In our awareness.
Much like attention and direction
Which Emanate FROM ourself
As light comes From the sun.
To KNOW our Self
We have to BE our Self.
Regard the “I” that I am
As being aware that I am.
And empty of anything other than itself.
So in order to know anything
About anything
You need to know the nature
Of the knower.
Therefore an investigation into
Our own true nature
Is hardly an egotistical one
But the highest and most divinely
Orchestrated Godlike one.
Everything we know is a reflection
Of the nature of that which knows it.
If we think we’re a temporal body-mind
Everything we know is
An extrapolation of that belief.
The ultimate Science then
Is the Science of Consciousness.
Dealing with feelings
Are you having a helluva time reining in some unfortunate feelings you find yourself caught up in far too often?
Do you belittle your own sweet self for indulging yet again in stuff you’ve thoroughly dealt with many times?
Would you like to quit the whole kit ‘n caboodle and just be free … but can’t?
Well, I have wonderful, wonderful news for you!! Take a diametrically opposite approach. Here’s how:
You already love God with your whole heart, right? There’s precious little you wouldn’t do to be in His presence day and night, right?
How about this – next time those unwanted thoughts come a calling, look at them and say “Hey, I can even live with these unwanted thoughts for the rest of my life and still be happy – it’s a very small price to pay to be free! The “thoughts” come and hey they’re not so bad! They come again and they’re a little less bad. And again but not quite as often. In lay language, they no longer have a leg to stand on.
They’re actually interfering not one iota anymore because quite frankly you haven’t been resisting them. Don’t even start resisting the last vestiges of them now: don’t mock them or try to push them out. Just realize you’ve suddenly grown tremendously in stature and essence. God’s bounty of love has exploded on the inside of you and it’s getting all over everyone who comes into your eager consciousness.
Even depression is illuminated by the Light of awareness
Of being aware.
Thinking, feeling, sensing, perceiving = Being aware.
KEEP REMINDING YOURSELF:
There’s no substance to my being aware But my experience of it.
“I am not identical to and
Limited by this experience.”
Physical pain is an intense version
Of the same stuff = the knowing of it.
Just because something is unpleasant Doesn’t mean it’s not made out of Consciousness.
Pain – or other demands – may seem
So intense that the knowing of it
May seem obscured.
A depression may be so deep that
We forget the fact that
The only substance to it is knowing.
A deep deep depression is rendered knowable by the Light of pure Consciousness.
“I am aware of being depressed.”
The “I” that is aware is what illuminates
Renders knowable
The experience of depression.
It is lifted up by something that is
Brilliant and luminous.
And transparent and empty
And innately peaceful.
Even our deepest depressions confirm
The presence of the brilliant
Light of pure consciousness.
Nothing can obscure that
Unless we consent to its obscuration.
If we believe a landscape on a screen
Has obscured it, it will be so
Only because we believe it.
BUT the landscape is just an image,
A modulation on the screen.
If we believe that our depression
Obscures consciousness
That’s how it will feel.
If we realize that our depression
Is lifted up or known
By the light of awareness
And our attention is drawn towards
The light of awareness
Rather than drawn towards
The darkness of depression,
Then that Light of awareness
Will be our experience.
The depression will gradually
Dissolve in that light.
Forgiveness extraordinaire!
There’s precious
Gold to be found
When we stop desiring
Something from somebody.
As long as we want/need
Something from somebody,
We can’t truly love them.
We only set people up for failure
When we judge and blame.
Mom, Dad, Bro, Sis, I need
Absolutely nothing – you’ve
Given me all there was to give.
NOW … for the first time …
I really -r-e-a-l-l-y- REALLY
Love you. <3
Who am I, you ask. R.Blok
Stolen moments
Who am I you ask
Yet the question always remains.
For who I am changes
from day to day
nay from moment to glorious moment I’d say
Yet all you who I meet have changed who I am
But am I not more than the sum of all that I have experienced also of all of who I’ve met
is there not some basic me
A version untouched, unblemished a version of my most perfect self
Yet I ponder this and still I am not who I once was…
Peace and love
Robert Blok
