We sometimes think that our Soul fills our body: we imagine that our aura or energy or essence fills the human container, the same way water might fill a cup.
This is a good practice for when you want to focus on being really embodied: right here, right now, in the human container. And yet, the thing is: our Soul is much bigger than our body! Recently, I had the delight of taking my group students on an interesting meditation, in which we expanded out of the body, into the room, and became one not just with the space in the room, but with everything in it: the desk, the chair, the computer, the cat. We dissolved into energy particulate, which is of course also Soul, and became One with all That, which is also us.Then we expanded bigger, to the surrounding area. Then bigger still, to a few mile radius around us. Our soul expanded to several miles in all directions, and we became One with everything in this radius: the tree, the building, the car: Soul merged with All, knew it All, experienced it All, because Soul is That. Soul isn’t just contained in our bodies. Soul is infinitely expanded. In this meditation we went out a few miles; but really, there’s nowhere Soul can’t expand to, because it’s unlimited. All space. All matter. All time. And when we exist from Soul self, that’s you! That’s me! That’s us! It’s a great thing, to realize we are more than just Soul in body. We’re Soul in Universe. Much love, SARA Sometimes people come to me and ask why it is that they can’t do a specific skill, such as see a vision in mediation.
When I ask about their lifestyle, I often find that these are incredibly busy people. And so I tell them to relax more, to clear their life of overscheduling, to slow down and listen to the still and small. Yet more often than not, they find it very hard to do this, or they’re resistant to doing this. They don’t get how relaxing more will help them: how slowing down will help them speed up their spiritual expansion. They are so accustomed to go-go-go. They are so accustomed to do-do-do. They are so accustomed to think-think-think. Now, go-do-think are okay if you’re trying to tread water in a linear world. But if you long to enter the depths of the Mystery, these linear, left-brain, rational approaches don’t work. It’s like trying to use a chainsaw to peel an orange. If you’re waiting for God, you have to wait in a relaxed state. You have to relax, have downtime, slow down, get quiet, get still. God can’t reach you if you’re too busy, or too loud or too noisy in your own head. You’ll miss all the sweet and subtle signs. Much love, SARA P.S.

We just usually miss them. Very early one morning, I drove down our gravel driveway into the woods, in that kind of dreamy, contemplative state that often comes over me while driving. It happens when I turn off the radio. I turn off the “to do” list in my head. And I allow my soul to flow… moving through space, moving through time, allowing myself to expand into everything. I was in exactly this kind of floaty relaxed state, when I saw a flicker to my right. If I’d had the radio on, I would have missed it. But fortunately, I was paying attention. I slowed the car... and then I stopped completely and rolled down the window, and witnessed this pretty plump robin, alight on a stone angel, reminding me that spring is here. A robin! On an angel! Such as simple little sign of hope—that the cold and rain and mud and grey and drear is finally gone for another season—that we will soon have light and breeze and warmth again. Such a simple little sign—the Universe putting a bird on it, so we are reminded once again, of how lovely our earthly paradise, our Gaia, really is. Moving at the speed of guidance—not too fast, not too hurried, in surrender to whatever shows up— is the way to notice these little signs. Slowing down, noticing, being grateful—is the way to keep them coming. Much love, SARA P.S. Will you be joining me on the 2018 Beyond Words Cruise? |
