Blog 1 July 2014
Half of this year suddenly expired, just after it started.
And I find that some years are more instructive than others – those are the
ones where most synchronicity happens, which is supposed to be a period when
you are closest to your ‘path’, or to your groove/wholeness/the moment, and
also closest to other persons – when you are open, when your heart is open, and
your energy good, or at least better than it has been.
It’s mostly/all about ‘energy’ - it has become apparent to
me – and many writers have written, some at length, about this – for example,
James Redfield, and his book The Celestine Prophecy, where he wrote about
energy takers and givers; Carlos Castaneda, with his many books about the Warriors
Path, and learning how to conserve one’s energy, and to beware the tyrants and
petty tyrants we find all around us.... what motivates a Tyrant, or an energy
thief? It must be some kind of emptiness inside themselves, caused by lack of
love & nurturing, as a child – or else, that plus a mix of anger – anger at
the world because they suffered emotional traumas as children – again, lack of
love – and who was responsible for that? Must have been ‘unaware’ parents –
parents too busy with trying to survive, or else with trying to fill their own
voids, their own emotional holes, because they were still ‘emotional children’
– taking whatever they could from the world, and from others around them –
taking drugs, alcohol, pleasures – just trying to fill their own emptinesses –
and possibly because they were doing that, to whatever degree, they were
unconscious of the needs of their children for love, security, etc – and so the
children inherit the sins of the Father, and the Mother
Ok...so what do we do with the adult babies? I’m not sure...
all of us have our lessons to learn – life, as I’ve learnt repeatedly, is one
long series of lessons – for me, most recently, the lesson of our own
mortality, and with that, a new gratitude for simple things, like the warmth of
the sun on my skin in the early morning, and a new patience with all things –
that there is no Crisis – Nothing is critically important, ito other people’s
ultimatums/deadlines etc – let the petty tyrants blow smoke out of their ears,
if they want to stand & stamp their feet and demand that the world obeys
their dictates – let me just be, as wry and sardonic as I choose to be, for my
own sanity & amusement, and let me have my faith that everything will be
OK, it will all be as it was intended to be – and I must have faith also that
in that final jigsaw puzzle of my world, I don’t find myself in a debtors jail
somewhere...
But, I must & will remain industrious – I can’t abide
laziness, and I hope I will always remember Castaneda’s other teachings, about
Impeccable Intent, etc – and that our constant fine intent in the world is our
guiding arrowhead, on our flight into the unknown – so that we can perhaps have
this image of ourselves as a projectile, travelling at warp speed through
space, enclosed in a soft warm capsule, our capsule/aura of
love/kindness/intent [colour it a translucent shade of candy-pink, or orange or
yellow or green or blue – the soft pastels, or even a neon or primary colour if
you feel braver] - and as we brush past others, in their own capsules, our
auras touch & mingle, and dent and bulge, like soap bubbles, and sometimes
become locked onto others, of the very significant people in our lives – and
hope & pray that you are not bound to another person’s toxic bubble,
because your very own bubble can be popped and damaged, and become very
misshapen, and turn an ugly & probably dark colour, because of being
poisoned by another’s energy – mostly inadvertently – and that’s when nervous
breakdowns can & do happen, and depressions, anxieties, and I believe also
diseases, like cancers etc
So I don’t know what society and us individuals are supposed
to do with the energy thieves, and the Takers – they must just learn their own
lessons of maturity, and love, somehow, and not end up in jail or the gutter –
maybe it’s just the old Indian philosophy of Karma that holds in the end – that
those people [all of us actually] are just at different development
stages/levels, in the process of
repaying past karmic debts – and some of us will somehow make up some ground in
this current lifetime – Jesus was one of our examples of karmic perfection –
and in the end, as the Christian version goes, he ascended to Heaven, his
Earthly mission complete – those much further down on the ladder of karma, must
perhaps live their life on earth in a hell of anger and maybe even criminality,
and abuse of others rights and lives and emotions, and when they die, perhaps
return in their next life on Earth, as another lowly being, to learn those
lessons that lead to Freedom & Joy, and some kind of maturity – and our job
is to be vigilant, in a kind but also self-caring way, that we don’t get
mangled or tangled with lesser beings, don’t get caught up in their telescopic
rifle cross-hairs, or anywhere in the cross-fires...
Vigilance, try to keep it humble, gracious, humorous, kind,
but also firm; clear & impeccable Intent; and good Energy, which should
include a good amount of self-love and caring, and an awareness of your own
luminous and soft capsule, your energy bubble that surrounds you, and protects
you – maybe those are my current lessons that guide me on toward my next
encounters, with whomever I am pre-destined to meet & mingle with
Namaste, and don’t forget the power and wonder of hugs J
In Joy
