Dear Diary; Going With Flow

I didn’t really plan to start my ‘Conversations with a Bodhisattva’ Group, it sort of planned me…

I didn’t really plan to run across Spain without any shoes on, my feet seemed to decide this for me!

It appeared that I just found myself shedding all I owned and setting off on a nomadic journey with Anadi…

And I didn’t really plan to spend the whole of my life working as a healer and teacher in the lives of others

My life path seemed to steer me…

And so it has always been.

All the adventures of my existence, unfolding it feels, without me having had much say…

But the truth is that deep inside my inner compass has planned them all

My deeper knowing senses when a path opens that must be trod…

In the same way that deep inside I have always known when I am going in the direction that is against the flow of the river…

When I have been swimming upstream…

But also at the time couldn’t stop this; some karma to be worked out, some lesson to be learned

‘I knew I shouldn’t have done that..’

A huge mistake – but I learned and I grew, and so it needed be…

And again followed my inner compass, where there is always a flow, I go with it; the river tumbling and sparkling and playing downstream; sometimes seeming to go too fast , and flowing over dangerous rocks and swirling in eddies, but always flowing freely from its source…

And returning to the source from which it first begun

When we connect to our own source, to the self beneath any self that we might have created; remove any mask that we wear so that we might be accepted, acceptable –  and decide instead to take it off, and to stop following the path of conventional wisdom…

When we stop in our tracks, along the well trodden path that we know but feel isn’t fully true;

We can begin again to listen to the whisper of our self.

The silence of our self

The self that will lead us to the experiences that resonate with our truth.

And then we  experience that…

Everything comes from the silence within
