Today is a sunny bright beautiful Saturday morning…
it’s Easter weekend… But things are different to last year and the year before and the year before that…
Many emotions and feelings that have always been there – acting out in what we knew as ‘normal life’ – have been magnified by the experience of Global unrest in the form of Covid 19…
And there is a lot of fear…
Fear can immobilise us, and take our freedom – our flow.
Fear of illness, fear of passing illness on…
Fear of being wrong; of being wronged
Fear of death…
The greatest fear of most human beings is that of dying… Of dying to the self.
When we identify with our ‘identity’ – our name, our job, our position in society; our body – our mind…
When we forget that we are infinite awareness
When we forget that we are spiritual beings on a human journey…
We forget that there is no death…
We forget that we are here to experience an incarnation – and that in this incarnation we have the ability to change the programmes that were ‘set up’ in our early years – from the conditioning of our childhood…
As children we needed to survive; and so that is why we adapted… If we sensed disapproval for a behaviour – a way of being; to survive with these adults who were caring for us – we found ways to adapt…
In not being fully accepted, by people who didn’t fully accept themselves…
We lost our true selves…
We forgot who we are.
And then in forgetting, or not even knowing who we are – we live life out of that script – that conditioning; which holds so many patterns and beliefs and ideas – playing out over and over…
Recurrent situations, relationship cycles, weight and health and illness patterns…
Round and round they go – different scenes, different acts, with different people playing the parts – but the same stories again and again…
Until we remember that we are born of consciousness…
We are born of infinite love
We are infinite love.
When we remember this
Our life can truly begin
Because we discover that if in every moment, when we stay present, we can make a choice in that moment to shift the habits and patterns that have kept us locked in the cycles – and in fear…
Of disapproval, of illness, of lack of love, of not surviving.
Of not knowing who we are.
When we let go of the habits and patterns
And we let go of the fear
And live in each moment – new possibilities open.
In remembering that this body will die; this incarnation will end..
But that there is no death.
In remembering who we are
And dying to the created self…
We set ourselves free
To fully live
