Light upon the path – Morning Glory

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Finding Beauty

morning glory blue a 2016

Blue Beauty, star in the morning rising

Trumpeting Life’s fascinating formation song,

Imitating a despairing premature death by evening

Agreeably Light upon the path again after dawn.

As I was walking along the lake this little Lightbearer caught my eye. It shines so True and beautiful and I’m so happy that I was able to catch a shot of its nature and character. And, you may even spot an ant peeping out, having spread some pollen already! There are shadows of ants climbing along the back of the blossom too.

What’s amazing to me is the light from its center of attraction.  I’m attracted and hope you are too!

“The more we listen to our Higher Self, the more we are creators. Composers of music listen to their Higher Selves. Everything beautiful coming from humans comes from their Higher Selves. We should be guided by our Higher Self and produce more and more beautiful things.”

Retained Love

Snowy white summer lace

 Speaks of the reflections of memories past;

Sweet embraces and a tender trace 

of exquisite boundless Love, unsurpassed.

This week I took a walk along the lake in the mountains and came across some beautiful wildflowers. Queen Anne’s Lace was growing along the edge with some hanging over the water. And, next to some catstail were some green ones, not having turned white as yet. Beautiful!

I hope you enjoy them as much I as do and feel the wonderful waves of summer for those of you in the northern hemisphere!

The Feminine Curve

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Butterfly Wisdom: Poetry, Truisms,...., Finding Beauty

Vortex3

Entering the feminine curve
Every nerve drawing me deeper toward
The heart of the vortex serve,
Knowing Source of earthly accord. 

Progressive energies
Cause molecules of emotions rising atop
Encouraging me, 
Though fear begging me to stop.

Memory of my mother
Taming my heart
Telling me I have to detach;
Lightning clap asunder, apart.

Her detachment declaration
Swills of light ascertain;
Done for both hearts’ liberation
Nonetheless acute piercing pain.

Thoughts of inadequacy
Sweat beginning to bead
Even as tears of gratitude,
Long trailing drops intercede.

Energies whirl, ripping from existence
Illusions self-composed,
Darkness, death, time,
Detrimental memories decompose.

Stripped and lifted to greater heights
Becoming fearless, assured by Feminine Love
Inner Masculine Power lights
Immortal boundless Spirit thereof.

Timeless Unconditional Love.

Sedona 2

There are several energy vortexes the Sedon, Arizona area. And, some say the entire area is an energy vortex. Of course, there are skeptics even though there is evidence that compass needles lose true north at vortex sites!

There is no denying the beauty of the place, the feminine earthly energy and the masculine strength. You can learn much about yourself and your connection to the earth and universe.

The red and white mountains look different during the day as the sun moves across the sky and the shadows play! No matter if it’s the beauty or the energy, Sedona is inspiring and invigorating!

“It is very interesting to analyze the effects of gratitude. That inner love in it makes it possible for us to expand. There are very few emotions as strong, deep and beautiful as gratitude. The more grateful we will be, the more receptive we will be, and the more good things will come into our lives.”

Make Love

Pink rose make love

“The greatest security is in Love , not in Mind. Love may be colored differently but can never be anything but Love. Happiness is the result of having found a little love. When people have found a little love, they feel a little security. It helps them and carries them through difficulties.”

Eugene Fersen, Advanced Teachings In science of Being, Volume 1, page 79.

Beautiful creatures

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Finding Beauty, Uncategorized
sit be quiet 

People are beautiful.

Sometimes I just sit and people watch. When we people watch we are looking at ourselves. 

People are beautiful, but we can also be so frighteningly ugly because we strive for external power in the world.

That unconscious desire and fear makes us do terrible things and causes us to suffer. Yet, if you look deep beyond the fear and emptiness, there is the beauty of the soul that is striving to express internal creative power of cohesion with everyone else and the universe.

How can that be true?

Even in the trouble we cause, the negative behaviors, the painful karma we create, we are in the process of unfolding our soul and our beauty. We may think – how can that be true in all that pain, suffering and ugliness?

We’ve created the subconscious ego that believes it rules the world. And, so we choose modes of learning in which we use negative energy, harmful energy, and thus create negative karma.

The Great Principle is eternally compassionate

We’ve fallen and think we can’t get up. We’ve lost conscious awareness of our soul. 

Yet, we are educating ourselves, and becoming more conscious of the Universal Laws. When we make a mistake it hurts and we think – perhaps we shouldn’t do that again! When I stumble and hurt, emotionally or physically, I always ask myself ‘why.’

Mentally we have separated ourselves from the Infinite and Source. That is a big mistake, yet not an eternal one. But, because of the Universal Laws, including the Law of Gender, time becomes a factor in our minds when we consider our spiritual journey back to full realization of who we are and unity with the Great All. 

Mentally we’ve turned away from Love and Beauty. When we think of other people as beautiful we are relating to the Eternal, the Source of Beauty. When we love, including human love for a partner, child or pet, we are expressing an awakening to unconditional Love and Love of the Eternal. 

We are harmonizing, healing ourselves.

Morning Greeting

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Butterfly Wisdom: Poetry, Finding Beauty

arid forest path 3

As I awaken in the moment, the day coming fast,

Fragrant notes of the cypress, juniper, piñon pine

Greet me as I enter the arid forest path

Singing such a sweet melody of earthly design

In such abundant giving

Can only come living

With no regret and humble thankfulness express,

My heart purified and to infinite Spirit I do acquiesce.

∞∞∞∞

These paths in the arid forest of Sedona led to native dwellings thousands of years ago, built along the rock formation in the first photo. The landscape and energy in the area is so invigorating that it is easy to get a sense why anyone wants to live in the area. And, you can get a real appreciation for the people of the past living there, their courage and fortitude.

The earthy juniper and pine fragrance is so amazing in the early morning. With a few deep breathes it grounds you to the earth, to your body, and inspires you to look up within! While I was there getting up early was the best part of the day because I would go outside and just breathe, then look at the beautiful mountains.  

The best part at night is the opportunity to see the Milky Way since it is so dark and the city lights are kept low.

Looking into the Milky Way you can get a real sense of the vastness of the universe.  And, in turn it makes me wonder about what infinity truly means in my life and for all of us. 

I think about my own life, the hardships, the joys, the ups, the downs. Wasted time and hopes for days to come, with the help of the Great Law. And, how I have gained some insight into my own spiritual journey.

And, in that mindful moment I know that no moment has been wasted, especially viewing it with some perspective. There are infinite opportunities to come and with the Power of the Infinite behind me, supporting me and all of us, so much, much more joy, peace and purpose.

It’s humbling! And, gratitude fills me.

The Source of Beauty

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Butterfly Wisdom: Poetry, Truisms,...., Finding Beauty

 

Lilies are a source of enjoyment for me because of their stunning beauty. A big bonus is that they are perennials and don’t require much care, so I have several plants in my garden! Their beauty brings to the surface of my consciousness – Harmony. I hope they do for you too.

 Beautiful Lily

The source of beauty and all creation 

Harmony of Silent boundless fields

Lilies grow to lift their faces

Thankful for the sunlit spirit yields.

The source of beauty and all creation is Harmony. And, since we are part of creation we originated from Harmony.

We are like the twin that has forgotten our Beauty, Love and Harmony. Yet, we get a glimpse of ourselves in nature, through nature.

Fierce Beauty

orchid life 2

orchid purple twins fierce beauty

Your  affection is like thunder and lightning,
Yet, with a gentle touch You become an Universal electrifier
to help raise the mortal conscious higher.

You taste the mountain dew, smell mystical roses, kiss yellow buttercups,
You feel the earth’s distant rumble
and stride over the high horizon,  humble.

You gather the power of your Inner Source
and express Wisdom with commanding force
To all within and far beyond the circle. 

Though you suffer deeply
With the sword of Truth at heart
The essence of you is  Justice, Love more than counterpart.

You are a paradox, not
You are the Spiritual warrior.

We are All this beautiful and unique!

What’s Bugging You, Humm?

Something’s bugging You, I can tell!
You may not even see it,
but from this perspective it is crawling all around!
It appears to have gotten under your skin,
and causing a mental turnaround!

Sometimes others can have a different perspective and see things about us that are true, while we are too close to it. A true value of a friend is they will always tell us like it is, even when it is something we really don’t want to hear.

At the very least they can tell that something is bothering us. That’s our clue to examine the situation for ourselves and see if it is true. Then if it is then to do something about it!

True friendship is the most precious thing on earth!

Mindful Pull

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Butterfly Wisdom: Poetry, Truisms,...., Finding Beauty

mountain speaks 3 refined

In your silence
You stand tall against pain and suffer,
against prejudice, human dross.

In your solidity
You push upward, loyal to your foundation and nature
with a generous upward bound.

You are revealed
Through your strength and humble beauty,
Through your mindful pull.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, Portia SLB
