Vacillate

Morning Meds; 11 9 18

During the process of thawing, the molecules of water repeatedly vacillate between a solid state and a liquid state, until temperature alters their vibrations enough to maintain a liquid state.

As we open our hearts to new beliefs, the energy of our thoughts repeatedly vacillates between old and new in the same manner.

In time and with enough raised vibrations, we can maintain the higher state as we continually move toward our true state of one with Source.

Our Core of Consciousness

Morning Meds; 11 8 18

Our dualistic world with its negativity can shake us to our core, but our core is rock solid.

It is our eternal connection to the Creator of All Things.

We can wrap our soul around it and hang on till the wave has past,

always knowing that no matter what, we are one.

Morning Mantra

Morning Meds; 11 7 19

Morning mantra.

With the rising of the sun, I don’t have to believe the opinions I had about myself yesterday. Each day a new beginning.

……………………………………..

I saw my mind, a giant piano and every thought a key.

Every thought I thought each day

was a note played by me.

I heard that same old tune,

a song stuck in my head.

I thought I could make a better sound,

something soothing and happy instead.

I played the notes of gratitude and

pressed the chord of love.

I felt my days begin to change,

I heard applause from above.

……………

Pretty corny but it was fun.

Play a good song today.

Continually Gifted

Morning Meds ; 11 7 21

We just need enough discipline to find the silence.

You have to go to the kitchen if you wish to eat.

It seems, all that is really asked of us, is that we learn to relax and listen.

When we leave this world we will realize we’ve earned nothing here, everything was just continually gifted to us.

Our Fruits

Morning Meds; 11 7 18

We are not our feelings; they are the fruits of what we believe.

We are not our beliefs, they, in all their varying stages of development, are the fruits of what we’ve been taught.

The who and what we are, the I Am, we are, waits to be recognized beneath these two facades.

Dream, Visiting Crane

Morning Meds 11 6 21

This a dream from the dream page.

A gray crane gifted me with its presence this morning.

It came into my dreamscape, moments before I awoke.

It stood beneath the bows of a huge cypress tree, its silhouette framed against a morning sky.

The crane and the cypress surrounded by a shimmering silver lake.

…..

I refer to these single picture dreams as snapshot dreams. Often, they provide more information than the more complex ones. In meditation, I wait for the morning fog to lift and the flurry of thoughts to pass. When the silence thickens, I can inject the images of the dream, in this case the crane.

It was as if it spread its wings and rose above the water.

It’s wings gripping the air, pulling itself higher in long slow strokes.

Following the wings, my breath fell into rhythm with their beating.

The falling wings became my exhale and their upwards sweeps my inhalations.

Together we rose as one as if my spirit had slid inside.

I knew below us a storm was raging, yet there was peace above it.

Everything faded to darkness and as we journeyed on together…

It has become one of my favorite meditation techniques to quite my mind.

You can also imagine yourself a manta ray swimming in the black sea of consciousness.

The gift of a dream is always worth the time it takes to meditate on it.
