Being is the path.
Being is the reason.
Being is the way.

And the result of being: turning away from distraction and “should” and “must do” and group thought and Misbelief and all the ways you hide from your life in fear…. the result of being is pure joy.

It’s nectar.
It’s flow.
It’s engagement.
It’s connection.
It’s expansion.
It’s love.

Surely, these are ways you would like to feel? Not now and then, but all the time?
​
Being is the path.
Being is the way.
It’s so easy.
You might say, it’s so easy it’s hard.

You don’t need more success.
You don't need more status.
You don’t need more stuff.
You don’t need a better car or house or clothes or body or whatever it is.

That’s all outer shell, distraction, what you’re told will make you happy.
When really, all you need is to learn how to be, just for one minute.

To drop into full engagement, to fully noticing what’s here right now.
And see how that feels.

You don’t need to close your eyes, or sit a certain way, or say mantra.
Just show up to what is.

When you start waking up, when you start becoming conscious… it’s confusing.

You keep getting pulled back and forth between your regular self, with all those distractions and feelings and ups and downs, and your soul self, which is beginning to show you how to live in bliss.

You keep moving from regular life, again with all the drama and feelings that arrive there, and soul life, which is a steady infusion of pure love, peace, calm.

So you’re getting a taste of what’s there… but you also keep getting yanked back into earth life.

This can actually be one of the most frustrating times, this passage where you can see the bliss, taste it, know it… and yet you can’t sustain it all the time.

And yet little by little… over weeks, or months or years, something begins to shift.

You begin to taste bliss, nirvana, love, peace… whatever you want to call enlightenment… you begin to experience it more often.

And you begin to have the experience out of nowhere, on an ordinary day, that everything has suddenly become extraordinary.

You stand there, doing the dishes, sitting in the work meeting, driving in traffic, doing your errands— letting the waves of amazingness crash through you.

And the more you allow yourself this feeling… the more you receive of this feeling.

The confusion fades. 
Every moment shows up as miracle. 

​And you, fully present to this shift, get to experience it all.

When you are fully present, you become exquisitely attuned to the “what is” of everything.

Do you know how it is when you are in nature, noticing everything, when suddenly the wind picks up and the leaves rustle in the air, and a chill goes down your spine because you are so fully there, so incredibly alive in that moment?

And you realize that all the thoughts that you had in the moment before you noticed the wind and the leaves and your spine—the looping, distracted worries that were attaching your energy to old times, old places, old people?

You realized that in that moment of exquisite noticing, those thoughts simply vanished, went away?

And you were fully present, fully alive with simple “what is”: the wind, the leaves, the shiver down your spine.

And in this moment of absolute consciousness, exquisite noticing, exquisite sensitivity, you were flooded with feelings of bliss, peace, awe and wonder.

This is what it feels like to be living from your soul!
​
So that every little thing… every little thing!... is worthy of holding your most rapt attention, for its beauty, and its profound perfection.

What happens when you are fully present, fully engaged? What happens when you are living continually from a state of “being?”

What happens is that you live from your soul.
You let your soul self lead.

And by doing this, what also happens is that much, most or maybe even all of your thought patterning: the looping into the past; the looping into the old story, the old wound, the old anger; the looping into the future; the fears and the worries of what might happen…

All of these patterns and projections, all of these misbeliefs and untruths…they simply dissolve and dissipate.

It is not possible to be in a state of full beingness, while at the same time holding on to those old negative thought patterns, or even those future thought projections.

The vibrational level that you inhabit when you are “being” does not allow the negative thought patterns to exist.

It’s as if they are sifted out, or dropped out.
​
They can’t coexist.

As an example: if you are experiencing a very depressive moment, and something comes into your life such a playful animal, or delightful child, or someone hugs you warmly and with full love...

… all of these will jolt you out of your negative and depressive thought looping, and bringing you instantaneously into a state of bliss and full beingness.

You will instantaneously forget whatever the depressive or low vibration state, because when you are in high vibration state, you see things from an entirely different perspective.

From soul perspective.

Whatever you chose to release, you can do this now
 
Whatever you chose to release, you can do this now.

You may choose to continue to grasp onto painful memories, painful experiences, all the suffering that is part of the human condition. 
 
Or you may choose to release it, Now. 
 
You don’t have to be ready. 
You don’t have to understand fully. 
You don’t have to have things all wrapped up. 
You don’t have to know what will happen if. 
 
You can simply release. 
Step through the door. 
This is instantaneous. 
 
We say: the purpose of life is soul growth. 
We say: you are here to transcend suffering. 
Surely you know this? 
 
And yet you delay releasing. 
You delay freedom. 
 
There is the continued grasping of mind/ego/personality. 
As if holding on to suffering is something you must do. 
As if holding on to pain is valuable in some way. 
 
We say: there is no value in suffering. 
You can let it all go. 
All the painful past. 
All the current pain. 
 
You do not need to live there.
You do not need to grasp. 
You do not need to hang on for dear life. 
The life you seek is not in the pain dimension.
 
Letting go, releasing, detaching. 
This is what you are here to learn how to do. 
The pain dimension, the dimension of darkness, chaos, swirling bitterness, is a one dimension. 
You can live there, if you like. 
You can live there your whole earth life. 
Or you can lift off, lift up, and see the new horizon of another dimension: the energy of peace and joy, connection and love. 
 
Do you deserve to be in this dimension? 
This is what you may decide.
Can you allow yourself to exist there? 
This is what you may determine.
Can you go there if others do not? 
This is what you may choose. 
 
You may decide to lift yourself into higher dimension, and this will happen immediately, instantaneously, the moment you ask. 
 
What happens next is your awareness—your awakening, or if you have already become conscious, the continued and infinite expansion of your consciousness—will begin to expand, rise, lift off.
 
What does it feel like? 
For most of you, it will feel like bliss, peace, love. 
For most of you, it will feel like relief, safety, home. 
 
How far can you go?
This is the quest of every lifetime. 
How far you can go. 
 
Can others come with you? 
Love does not change the Universal truth: each soul must walk their own path. 
If they can join you, rejoice. 
If they are still stuck in pain, perhaps your new dimensionality will inspire or direct them. 

Levity always is more powerful than gravity. 
Souls rise to the highest level in the room, the region, the planet, the Universe. 
What lifts one, lifts all. 
 
Enlightenment beckons all of us, always. 
If we are not yet ready to accept enlightenment, we can still take the next step.
Understanding is a progression of light. 
The light of Oneness cannot be dimmed. 
 
As you expand, your awareness shifts, your understanding opens, your reaction to everyday situations changes, your willingness to be hurtled back into the darkness changes. 
You don’t live there anymore. 
You don’t live in that dimension. 
Darkness no longer feels like the comforting cave. 
Pain no longer feels like a welcome blanket. 
You tire of the endless misery. 
You allow the light. 
Whenever you throw off darkness, light is waiting.
 
And yes: your soul travels in all dimensions.  
As your mind/ego/personality opens into awareness, opens from the small, grasping, fearful self into the vast, expanded, being self, you begin to live in new dimensions. 
You begin to experience what you have never experienced before. 
 
Journeys. Dreams. Synchronicities. Surprises. 
Energy. Emotions. Messages. Gifts. 
Everything is waiting for you, when you step into light. 

The vastness of this lifetime is calling you. 
The light of all lifetimes is calling you. 
You have enough awareness right now to step through the door. 
Step through.

In modern culture, we are told to forget about “doing” and concentrate on “being.”
As if we’re supposed to be sitting around in our lives, locked in lotus position, doing nothing, no thing.

Yet this is a misunderstanding.

We are not meant to slack, to waste life, to hang back, to not experience.
We are meant to have a life rich with a variety of experiences, so that we are continually expanding our understanding of our self in the world.

Being doesn’t not mean not doing.
It means not “doing” things mindlessly.

​Not “doing” things that are by rote, that are not well considered, that are old, that are of the past, that are unconscious, that are not conscious, that are not who we are.
​
Often it means “doing” many things: as many as you like. But it means “doing” them from a state of “being,” a state of consciousness, a state of wonder and awe and pain and grace.

So that you do the dishes in mindful awe.
You go to a coffee shop in conscious connection.
​You do your work in gratitude and service.
You show up to relationship with patience.
You do the unpleasant tasks with compassion.
You laugh, more than not.
You hold humorous and loving perspective, more than not.
You relax and take it easy, even when you are most active.
You come forward, in a fully relaxed state.
You show up fully, in a full state of being.

Do you see the difference? Between hiding out in “being”: hiding in states of relaxation that really are a way of pulling more armor around your heart?

And showing up fully in “being,” in all and every activity you choose to engage with.
