Your World, Intuitively
If all that is is spiritual (and it is), then any position you take, belief you hold, and judgments you make are no more spiritual than others you disparage. Spirituality has nothing to do with your sense of right but everything to do with your sense of wrong. That is, loving the wrong you compare to your right.
Love and spirituality know no opposites. Do you?
Humans love to point at differences and use them to divide one from another. “My way or the highway,” and you are “less than” if you do not see it my way, and of course, “my way” is so pristine, rational, spiritual, and sound, etc., that “I” will always be on higher ground, than you so there can be no argument.
The collective “noise” is your noise, not your security or confirmation of a viewpoint. It is your separation from diversity. All lost because of a fixation on your point of view. It’s not worth it.
Harmony is lost to your perspective, and so too are love, peace, and connection. Forget the collective, else the loss to you will ripple through eternity. You will miss out on something breathtaking.
When you single out anyone as an object of villainy, non-virtue, evil, etc., you’re pointing out the criteria for your judgments. Do you see? All that is must exist “as is” without your or anyone’s analysis and commentary about what should or shouldn’t be, and if you can’t find beauty and grace in that, you’re the problem you attempt to point out elsewhere.
Present-moment awareness is not a moment of judgment. It is the embracement of something so spectacular minstrels sing from the heavens to usher it in. If you’re busy judging, condemning, etc., you miss the music, and it is sweet. Oh, so very sweet.
Let the music of infinity fill you instead of grumbling it into the noise of the unreal. Life is precious – all of it. Don’t miss it for anything, especially your judgments.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used to create them,” Einstein said, but any thinking, coupled with the interpretive mind, which, by the way, is all thinking, is the same thinking that creates ALL problems. In other words, “thinking” will never solve a problem. What to do?
Listen to your heartbeat, each breath, the blood coursing through your veins, savor the myriad scents carried by the breeze without identifying them, love without criteria. “What to do” is right there in a whisper so loud it shakes the earth. Thinking’s purest form is when it isn’t thinking at all. Did you feel the earth move? You must not be thinking!
You were not born to “be” anything other than what you are without the noise of thinking, believing, and hoping you will be something else. Do you see? We are repeatedly told we can be anything we want to be, which is not true. What you wish to be is a figment of your imagination, conjecture, and wishful thinking. That is, a product of your mind that has never experienced “what you are” in the midst of “what is.”
Know thyself,” e.g., “what YOU are,” before embarking on an endless journey to something else, e.g., something unreal, and remember if you can think it, wish it, hope it, believe it, that’s not it. YOU, as is, right now, are the creative center of the universe. You don’t have to think about what that means. Just accept that nothing in all the heavens and Earth exists without YOU.
Wanting keeps the futility of “what isn’t” alive and “what is” from being experienced. Until what you want only looks like “what is” here and now, you will forever be hooked to the dream of non-reality coupled with your mind’s puny attempts to alter it.
What you want is “what is.” It may not match your mind’s idea of how it should be, but wanting something “other” will not make “what is” go away, nor will it alter present moment mystery and splendor. Don’t “want” for anything; the transformation you experience is that you have everything. You already have everything, but only when you forgo all thoughts that tell you otherwise.
Mystery explodes into awareness but only in the presence of the unexplained. A calm and expansion of view occurs when, with eyes wide open and thoughts at rest, all you see is unperceived by your mind. In other words, awareness directly correlates to the unknown and the unknowable but is completely lost to the “known.”
Your words, thoughts, and descriptions blind you; Awareness is not blind. Let “mystery” be without noisy speculation; awareness will silence all inquiries. The unknowable is the real “beautiful life!”
The rainbow colors appear separate when refracted (divided) through a prism but blend into whiteness (white light) when the prism is removed. Your mind is a prism through which all division takes place. That is your “colors,” whatever they may be, are you separating what is into little pieces of what isn’t, narrowing focus, and altering reality. Do you see?
Your mind is the divider separating all that is into preferential forms, e.g., good, evil, and all your variations. Removing your mind (silence) transforms you into ONE glorious light that shines on everything without separation of any kind. In other words, silence is your way to crystal clarity. When you give life your “undivided” attention (silence), nothing you experience will be without “enlightenment.”
You know, when you love life, suffering disappears. All things you judge right or not right give way to splendor, beauty, and myriad wonders all rolled up in “you,” wholly caught up in your experience. Stories, and all suffering, is stories lose their pizazz when living presently and in love. Close the book on your past or future. Living starts now!
The time to stop judging is when you feel most like doing so, which is all the time for most humans. Judging doesn’t put someone else in a corner; it just puts you more firmly in your own. Do you see?
You make the separation from others for little more than inane reasons that reflect learning, beliefs, prejudices, and various other follies humans wrap themselves up in. All at the cost of the innate characteristic everyone possesses to love “life.” That is life, which is all-inclusive of everything and everyone regardless of how you see things, e.g., every cause or belief you hold that takes you from your innate nature to love, including yourself.
In simple terms, you cannot judge and love. Not wholly and purely. It’s not the age-old narrative that you are judged as you judge others. No, it’s that your love drains from you when you do. Oh, and don’t condescend either, with the infamous diatribe that “they (whomever you judge) aren’t at your level of spirituality, education, or maturity. That’s just a sneaky form of judgment as well. All that’s left, really is “don’t judge,” ever!
