Beyond Time and Space

I am laughing as I begin this blog, since my first and last post before this one was in April of 2007. Hence the title, Beyond Time and Space. Everything happens when it happens. And voila! The Organic Abundance Blog finally begins in earnest.

If I relax into the Divine Stream of things, then there is no need for anything or anyone to be other than they are. There is simply the Beauty of Being, effortless and organic. There are no accidents in the apparent timing of our lives and actions, and absolutely nothing to be afraid of. The more I can relax and allow, simply paying attention to what arises, the more I know this in my heart. Everything flows in this world of opposites, from one pole to the other, from high to low or low to high... everything emerging or dissolving in perfect relationship, eventually melting back into the One from which it appears to arise. I am in awe of the flow of it, the uniqueness of it, the perfectly ordinary, holy sameness of it all. All contradictions, and all affirmations. Awareness and awe are the portals to awakening.

I have discovered that the stories I tell myself about any situation are always self-generated smokescreens. They serve to keep my attention preoccupied with imaginary details. What I really fear, always fear, is the Truth that is always present, the Ground of Being... I fear this larger life, and the responsibility I must take for my own constantly changing story. I fear the Reality of Self that is immortal, Awake, and unchanging, shining with clarity and always Home. Why do I fear what is really Me?

Who am I? Why am I here? These questions have possessed individual minds thoughout the long dreaming we call the world. They have never been answered, nor could they be within the context of the dream. No one in the middle of a dream can find an answer to such questions. On awakening the answers are apparent. So the only question I need to ask is simply, "Do I want to know Who I Am, even at the cost of all my most cherished illusions about myself and the world?" If my honest answer is yes, then it is only a matter of time... and that is only because time and space are part of the dream I have been living. A heartfelt 'yes' with clear intent will dissolve even the holographic illusion of time and space.
