For most, the “search” is returning to the safety and security of the mythological “Garden” where all is provided. Mother, father, and angels stand guard over all the details of life that living outside the garden throws at us. In other words, safety, comfort, and convenience is the search.

You will never find yourself with such a search as it is among the thorns and thistles that the desires for comfort and safety give way to your realness. Your realness swims in a sea of eternal life unknown to the spoiling effects of comfort and safety. Adam and Eve were not cast out of the Garden of Eden. They were cast into it. Let go of the home you seek and think you deserve, and you will find the garden where YOU are known.

Measuring yourself against the achievements of worthiness, failure, success, accomplishments, and yes, even purpose is a formula for comfort, not happiness. You can be happy “with” these things, but not because of them. Knowing what YOU are outside, anything you do otherwise is knowing joy, and you don’t need anything to “know” YOU.

What you are underneath, the ego accepts what is but knows what isn’t. The ego always moves toward physical reality and only finds illusion. Do you see?

Knowing resides not in what you think; its home is in the far reaches of something incomprehensible to any mind, even a collective one. In other words, discovering “who YOU are” is the end of illusion.

We don’t have to carry an idea in our heads that we can do anything we set out to do. Life’s most authentic beauty lies not in the thoughts of doing but in the simple experience of doing. Example: Think of your favorite food or dessert; if you have it available, put an actual morsel into your mouth or imagine yourself putting it into your mouth. Which did you like best? Which tastes better? Which method do you prefer? The concept (imagination) of taste does not compare to an experience of it. So it is with everything. Get some and get into as many experiences as you can.   They all have a way of tasting good, even if it takes a while.

What we did yesterday and what we do today have no bearing on anything that happens tomorrow. Tomorrow does not exist, nor does yesterday.  All we can do is experience now, and the best way to experience anything is to cease thinking about nonexistent things. You and I, at this moment, are all there is or will ever be.

The spiritual default for things not going as we would like them is that “these things are happening to me for a reason” or “I’ll be better for having gone through them.” NOT!

We, meaning you, are responsible for everything in our experience, directly, indirectly, and uniquely. There is no “out there.”  Own your life; if you don’t, life will own you.

When the past was present, it likely had its finger on the future, and since the “future” does not exist in any reality, any desire, hope, or wish conceived there was based on imagination, e.g., the unreal. Do you see?

Take no thought for yesterday or tomorrow; NOW is where you need to be. Always!

YOU the CREATOR- The Unchangeable Change

What we like to call change, for most of us, is really an adding of layers to the onion rather than removing them. We tell ourselves “let me do this, accomplish that or go here instead of where I am, and everything will be better.” It won’t; please get that!

Most of us are full of layers that are little more than avoidance of real-life experiences we find ourselves in. We believe that we can change our circumstances simply by running from them and that, somehow, will unravel us but really it just winds us up even tighter.

Shadows

What you don’t experience fully becomes the nature of your experience even when you think you have changed. What you don’t take care of now becomes a layer; a full-length overcoat that is heavy and burdensome!

Get good with where you are; be honest with it and never let yourself be fooled into believing you are not its creator. You can run from creation, but you can never run from yourself, e.g., “the Creator.” Live where you are because “where you are” is the only place life exists.
