“The seasons of our life are different units of life, and each opportunity carries with itself the different seasons, they are indissolubly connected one with another. 
In the Summer there is opportunity to increase the creation; in the Fall there is opportunity to gather the creation, and in the Winter is the opportunity to spend properly that, which as be gathered. 
Now this is Life and how lovely and how interesting it is according to the Four Seasons.”    Eugene Fersen

I’ve been meditating a bit about life and death and am grateful that I have made it thus far in my life, age wise and experience wise, etc. I’m now more conscious of the seasons of my life having gained some perspective and insights. I am coming to the peace of feeling that death will be another step in life and a joyous time, with the help of the Great Principle.  

In the hope You find Love close at hand in every season of your life, Portia SLB

Fractal Nature of our World

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Finding Beauty

Ocean Chaos 3    Ocean Chaos 4

Chaotic water swills in the present, but what effect will it have?
How far will the effects reach?
How does it affect You now?

Sometimes our lives can be a bit chaotic! Maybe a bit more than we would like to admit. And, though we may not know the deep reason for the chaos, there is some rhyme and reason to it. 

Karma of the beating of a butterfly’s wings

Chaos is natural element in nature like air turbulence, the weather, and even our mental states. It’s like the beating of a butterfly’s wings.Don't blame me!

The butterfly wings beat the air and the effects may be felt as a hurricane later somewhere across the world. We don’t know if that’s true, but the butterfly wings beats definitely cause a real effect.

The same is true of every thought we have, every emotion, every behavior. We stir things up, creating chaos.

The nature of chaos is complex, yet through some understanding we can better prepare ourselves in the moment. Even though time appears to be linear, our life is nonlinear. The present moment is interconnected to the past and future. Still our body is only in the present moment, so synchronizing mind with body consciously sets us up for opportunities to create a harmonious and happy life. By being conscious in the moment we can avoid those elements that may be detrimental to our well-being and attract those that are beneficial. 

 It’s full of surprises and unexpected situations. 

The beauty of an unexpected life

Yet, the idea of the unexpected in our life can be beautiful and even help us organize our life. It can help simplify our life.

Knowing that life is fractal and can be chaotic gives us some insights, and opens a door to deeper understanding with compassion for ourselves. We may not consciously know the effects of what we are doing this very moment. Yet, when we do the right thing, that is we are living our authentic power with intelligence, truth and love, then we will draw a ‘like’ effect because of the Universal Law of Cause and Effect and Law of Attraction which are uncompromising. The effects can be much more far reaching than we may ever know.

Far reaching effects of pay it forward

What we may consider an inconsequential thought or behavior may lead to major effect. It’s a pay it forward type of thing. What we do now, this very moment, may have far reaching effects around the world sooner or later. We are all connected to each other and to the Universal Laws that work in-conjunction. What we think this very moment may nudge someone else to open their heart or mind, and it spreads to those around them, then to their community and eventually it may spread around the world. That’s power! 

So our opportunity as a soul is to BE. To BE and radiate in our thoughts, feelings and behaviors – enthusiasm, intelligence, truth and most of all Love. This is our authentic power as a soul and it is that much more powerful because of being one with All Spirit. 

We have the greatest asset we can ever have – the help of the Great Principle. We can Trust that when we do the right thing in this moment, the most wise and tender hearted, then the Universal Laws work out the effect harmoniously! 

Teachings of the fractal nature of our world

And if there is anything that chaos teaches us it is – to expect the unexpected! It teaches us to live in the moment fully and to be mindful. To be grateful for now. To be grateful that we don’t know what’s next, otherwise there would be nothing to look forward to! There would be no adventure.

Life is an adventure. Life is fractal. It’s simple! There is some rhyme and reason even in chaos.

Consider this quote to reflect upon:

“The Great Principle is the One Point. There is nothing more simple than a point. At the same time the Great Principle is a Sphere. There is nothing more perfect, complete, and at the same time more simple than a sphere. It is perfection in absolute simplicity.”

Eugene Fersen, Science of Being, page 22. 

 

Fear of Terrorists, Part 3

by Circlelightbearer, posted in ...., World & Self Development: Terrorism

We all are affected in some way by terrorism because each of us carry a trait of fear in our ego and personality. When that trait is activated through worry, hatred, anguish or similitude it adds to the world collective of negative energy, pulling us further into it.

Terrorism and fear are problems to rise above as we make other choices that lead to happiness for us all.

BE CONSCIOUS OF FEAR
Any fear that we harbor in the subconsciousness can be unconsciously activated and added to the fear circling the globe when we relate to terrorism through the media or any other way.

It can also draw more negative energy and fear to us. Thus, some of the fear we experience concerning the situation may be what we unconsciously drew to us from the fear circling in the world mental atmosphere. It’s like the mass seduction of a mob with fear spreading from person to person until nearly everyone is affected.

CHOOSE PEACE
Whenever you experience any type of fear, especially fear of terrorism, look on it as an opportunity to over-come it. That’s putting some positive energy in the equation already.

Consider viewing the ‘thinker’ within, bringing your thinking to the present moment where your body is physically. It frees you to practice silencing the mind, thereby releasing fearful thoughts, and you can consciously choose to align with inner and universal peace.

BE OPEN TO UNDERSTANDING
Through science we now have a bigger view of the universe; we are part of a great sea of infinite galaxies, infinite abundance, infinite creativity and infinite power. This enables us to have a deeper understanding and a base of faith that we are part of something greater than our self.  

What some would call God, Lightbearers call the Great Principle, Our Father, that IS Unlimited Power, Cosmic Mind, Ubiquitous Law, All-inclusive Love and All-Encompassing Spirit. 

Simply IS

HAVE FAITH
Humanity created religions for our own emotional comfort because of the pain from our mental fall from Grace; our belief that we have lost the support of the Eternal. Fear, hatred and all the other negative subconscious traits were created because of that belief, and terrorists and fear of terrorists stem from that.

Yet, there is hope because there is still a flicker of faith within us that Harmony exists. That faith can become a flame to help us rise above fear.

DEVELOP AN INNER SENSE OF PEACE
Though we may experience fear it will eventually end because we created it and give it power.

Let us fight for freedom! When you are peaceful, happy and loving within yourself and express goodwill, caring, kindness and compassion for others, it helps raise everyone out of fear and break the cycle of terror.

Love too can circle around the world, increasing the Light in mind and heart.

Consider this quote to reflect upon:

“We must live peace, be one with it. That is our problem, our final aim as Lightbearers. We must gird ourselves with the sword of courage. We must fight, not on the battlefield of killing, but on destroying all that is opposing real happiness within us.”

Fear of Terrorists

by Circlelightbearer, posted in World & Self Development: Terrorism, ....

The raging storm of terror that is generated by terrorists with hatred and self-righteousness is also unconsciously fed by those that fear or hate them. An impersonal analysis of the situation can help us calm the turbulent tempest in our thinking, free us to be in the moment, and with the help of the Eternal begin to enact inner peace.

UNCONSCIOUS OF FEAR
Terrorists use religious and self-righteous claims as a means to unconsciously cover up their own fear and to abet hatred. Their attacks are a message to instill fear and to demonstrate their resolve to wreak havoc in their struggle for what they perceive as justice, trying to empower themselves.

Their egos feel threatened and powerless, so in trying to empower their egos they fall further into hatred with a responsive belief that they are doing the right thing. With so much negative energy circling they become a slave to it.

Plus, wanting their cause to grow, they use that negative energy to attract others. And it works. More people are joining terrorist organizations out of fear. Fear attracts more negative energy and fear.

THE FEAR BOOMERANG
It does not stop there because that fearful energy boomerangs back to the originators, burgeoning, attracting what they fear (retaliatory attacks and subjugation). It terrorizes them to the point of desperation and thus they attack again. 

We don’t know what terrorists as individuals have been through to get this way, yet terrorism is an attention getter that is really a cry for love. It is the ego that doesn’t know how to cope with the stress of change and is afraid.

RISE ABOVE DOUBT
Fear of terrorists cycles, boomerangs round and round, growing world-wide, attacking anyone that unconsciously feeds it with worry, prejudice, antagonism or other fear-based traits. All this because of doubt.

We all experience fear because we doubt our connection to and the support of the Eternal. Let us be brave and face the situation remembering that we have the support of the Eternal to rise above terrorism, and enact goodwill, altruism and unconditional Love instead of fear.

May You find Love close at hand, Portia SLB

Consider this quote to reflect upon:

“We should not say we are alone. We are not. We should rise above it and say, ‘I have within me the Sword of Truth, my helmet is the Inspiration from above.”

Flutters

Flutters

We are constantly fluttering,
Becoming dumbfound
We listen to voices with no sound
Dream resolution in delusion
Speak words of confusion
All the while, tasting bitter feelings of collusion.

We oscillate, palpitate and fluctuate
Totally ignore and subordinate the beauty of the butterfly
Misunderstanding the need to identify
With that character to comprehend
The butterfly is not pretend,
And does help us to ascend.

As dangerous flutters abound
We fear the butterfly cannot withstand the pain
Believing it is foreordain
That we are set apart
Opposites, an unsubstantial counterpart
Like a shadow with no heart.

With Light and Love, Portia SLB

The Power to Create – A Key to Happiness

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Keys to Happiness

 

Power to create

Russia can be considered a country of contrasts, or a least it is to me! There is the beauty of the people, their rich culture, past history accomplishments in art and its reconstruction after the terrible wars. Then there is the darkness, the suppression, the control and lost of freedom that they have suffered.

Yet, the greatest thing I have learned from the beautiful people there, and from people everywhere, is that creativity is a means to reconstruct happiness! Remember when you where a child and spent hours creating stories, crayon pictures, paintings, dirt roads for our matchbox cars, Lego buildings and even worlds! We were happy in our creativity!

In creativity  there is no contrast, rather blending of past and present, present and future, destruction and construction, even darkness and light. Because darkness though it may appear to be complete,  we see the Light when we turn towards it.

We turn towards Light and Love. The act of  being creative is beautiful because the mind of the creator is beautiful. And beauty is a quality of Love.

Mind and Love creates beautiful thoughts, ideas, emotions, behaviors and physical manifestations! And, through the Law of Attraction we create our reality – we create our happiness!

In the Jungle

Jungle Trail2

In the Jungle

The shadows are dark – the air is damp and hot;
The forest thick with tall palm and kapok tree.
Where moss grows on most trunks
And spiral vines hang free.

Where the dabbled leaves in sunlight sing
A patient and wondrous rhythmic song;
With harvests of silence in-between
Ringing truth that in this moment I do belong.

Intrigued I enter a man-made trail
Walking gently on Mother earth awake and aware
So many wondrous sites, sounds and smells,
I smile, enjoy the beauty, and silently declare

I love this adventure!  Granting temporary freedom from ego indenture.
Then there! – broad, beak toucans fly and catch my eye!
They call two young fledglings who are drinking
From a hollow of tree branch nearby.

Spider monkeys jump and howler monkeys yell
Loud warnings of territorial realms
Sounds meant to frighten and repel
Their cry deepens then overwhelms

I look higher and spot a three-toed sloth that rests
In the highest treetop, peaceful, still
Living the moment in the leaves as nature requests
Ignoring the monkeys’ shrill.

I pause and listen again to the jungle’s song;
Grateful knowing that even after I leave this place
I’ll remember Mother Nature’s generous spirit, varied and strong
Offering wonderful adventures for all to embrace;

And no matter where I am
A patient and wondrous rhythmic song
With harvests of silence in-between
Rings truth that in this moment I do belong.

We are Linked!

Sunrise Bridge

As we become more and more conscious, awake and aware of being in the moment, the more we become aware of the temptations we face. In that moment we are given the opportunity to choose love or fear.

When we choose love, we will feel it in the tenderness of our heart and express it in our behavior as consideration, goodwill and caring.  

Our behaviors dominated by feelings of love not only transforms us, but because of our link to everyone and everything else it helps transform those near us, and indeed the world!

“As we human beings are also members of the Great Family of Nature, we are endowed with the same faculty as the rest of Creation to contact Universal Lie Energy directly through our body and to use it whenever we need.”

The Hots of Our Reality!

by Circlelightbearer, posted in Mindfulness

IMG_0409-0

Our ego wants to find love, but can go about it in wrong or harmful ways. It doesn’t really want to know why it’s that way.

Our appetites, our habits, our impulses and libido shape the way we are. They are our desires, and our desires and motivations shape our reality.

We are all looking for Love because mentally we are not conscious of True Love. But, we unconsciously look for love through desires of the ego. The ego can urge us to look for satisfaction or escape through excessive sex, food, recreational drugs and attention. The subconscious ego feels it is lacking which is based in fear. There is no Trust in Universal Love or Universal Abundance.

We can get comfortable with the urges and impulses of the ego and become addicted to over eating, alcohol, sex, infidelity and porn. Food is to sustain our body, an aspect of love and sex is a divine means of helping us realize Love. But, the ego uses urges and impulses to fulfill itself which can end up harming us.

Our great asset is consciousness or awareness. When we are conscious of our desires and motivations we can exercise our authentic power, the power of our soul and individuality. We can use our will to be motivated by love rather than fear.

When we are conscious of Love and motivated by it, then we shape our reality in it. Our thoughts, emotions and behaviors change and thus our reality changes. We live in the flow of life earnestly with enthusiasm, wisdom and caring. We are conscious of goodwill and act with kindness from the tenderness of our heart.

This changes the way we see the world and live our life. It changes our reality because our reality is shaped by the way we are.

“We think inharmoniously, and those thoughts of ours –unaware in most cases as we are that they will some day be visited upon us –act most destructively on us. The same is true of our negative emotions, such as hatred, jealousy, revenge, etc. Even if we feel these emotions toward other individuals, ultimately we are the ones who will be most harmed by indulging them, because of the law of Retribution.”
