Lighting the Way

There are many ways in which one can be or is a beacon. Often it is simply the light they exude/the energy they carry which lights the way for others. Circumstances and events build to a crisis where needs are overshadowed or overlooked, resulting in an imbalance of systems. It leaves some with a sense of hopelessness in correcting a vast shift of energies. Their pleas reverberate through the universe. Many hear. Some react. Others ignore. Many feel they don’t have a voice, their needs remain unheard. Do you know what it feels like to be ignored, to lose your voice yet the desire for harmony continues to stir within? Harmony is a united front as one energetic system feeds into another. While the left hand may not know what the right hand is doing, there is a center point which does. This is the heart, the still point. It is love which creates change, builds better worlds. This is not only the call of who are referred to as the indigenous people but of the mother herself. We are Earth and she is us in her myriad of physical forms. Many activists pick subjects or elements of this unbalance-a focus on the people of various cultures, the needs and care of animals, water or air pollution, trees, rainforests, what some refer to as global warming etc. They pick a topic without addressing the issue which is imbalance. While yes, there exists an imbalance in each of these areas. What is the root of each? One could say man. So, if it started with man, how can man restore nature? Of course, one wants to save rainforests, create nature reserves etc. All this is well and good in its own way however it isn’t a long term solution of restoring balance. The restoration of balance begins in the heart of each human. Until each human lets go of ego and learns to live through his heart center, imbalance will remain. Within and without, one must create harmony within his own being to co-create a better world. The answer to the problems of nature rests within the nature of each man. Who is willing to clear his inner landscape and plant seeds to feed the future?

The Grasp of Love

“When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.” ~John Muir

Earth supports man. Man must reciprocate this energy. It is this energy exchange that heals and balances both. If one, instead of exhausting all efforts before turning to love, approaches all through love, he will often see his answer before the question arises. This is the process of ancient forests. Each tree does this in cooperation with the whole. They understand the cycle of life and integration of all systems within the forest. They act accordingly, each supporting one another. They communicate on a level most humans do not comprehend. When one makes a decision based on the highest good of all, he invites others to join him. They co-create an environment of healing which harmonizes all. This change builds better worlds. While man lives in a busy world and may think he has little time to make a positive impact, this one simple act of love benefits not only humankind but all he touches. Will you be one to reach out and touch the world with love?
