Being Present

Breathing in I calm my body.

Breathing out I smile.

Dwelling in the present moment,

I know this is a wonderful moment!

-Thich Nhat Hanh

Remember your Soul…

 

Soul
Close your eyes,
To see with your heart,
Close your ears,
To hear with your heart,
Forget your mind,
And think with your heart.

For your heart will see,
When your eyes fail,
And your heart will hear,
When the voices are confused,
Your heart has the answers,
When your mind falls short.

Remember your heart,
For it is the key to love,
Remember all love,
For love is the key to your soul,
Remember your soul,
For it is your Foundation.

–Eric Galla

These spiritual window-shoppers….

 

 These Spiritual Window-shoppers
who idly ask, ‘How much is that?’ Oh, I’m just looking.
They handle a hundred items and put them down,
shadows with no capital.

What is spent is love and two eyes wet with weeping.
But these walk into a shop,
and their whole lives pass suddenly in that moment,
in that shop.

 Where did you go? “Nowhere.”
What did you have to eat? “Nothing much.”

 Even if you don’t know what you want,
buy  something, to be part of the exchanging flow.

 Start a huge, foolish project,
like Noah.

 It makes absolutely no difference
what people think of you.

 

-RUMI

 

 

 

Have you ever asked yourself…

 

Why is that we tend to end up in these frustrating situations where we say: I knew it!  Typical!  Same as always!? Why does it seem to happen to us time after time? Could it be that we, at the very moment we decide that we know what will happen, actually set up the Blueprints and the Universe simply follow our instruction?  If so, do we also realize what we can do just by the change of thoughts…

“Every thought we think is creating our future.”

Louise L. Hay

Reiju-Blessing

June 2nd I was experiencing Pamir Kiciman´s monthly Reiju and as always it was a beautiful Moment. Like Nature yearns, during the dry period, for the relieving sound of rain, I come to this moment with a heart of thirst and I bathe my soul in the Well. And when I open my eyes again I am completely renewed and refreshed.  It´s a true Highlight every month and something I am always looking forward too.  This Reiju lasts throughout the whole month and you can feel it flowing in your veins, helping you getting what you need for your own personal Journey. This offer is truly appreciated and over 300 is participating and are benefiting from the energy it holds.

I came to think about…..

I came to think about words today.
Words are expressions of thoughts, feelings, knowledge and perceptions and when we read what others have to say we cross the bridge to their mind and soul.  The words are reflections of their own inner being.

Often we are fascinated by the beauty of the words and moved by the feelings they generate. We read, we learn and sometimes we are even seduced by the words. In our search for truth and understanding we sometimes read book after book, quote after quote enjoying the beautiful flowers others picked in their inner garden.

That is a good thing but do we also remember to visit our own garden, do we stop by ourselves to nourish our own growing flowers? Do we remember to cross the bridge to our own mind and soul, listening and learning? Ironic how answers we search from outside ourselves has actually its origins from inside someone else. Everything ever said or written has its origins from within.

We can always learn from each other, we all have various knowledge and experiences and it is a good thing to share what we know for others to enjoy and learn. We need each other as human beings but never forget that the most important answers exists within ourselves in our own blossoming heart.

 “You have the Answer. Just get quiet enough to hear it.” – Pat Obuchowski

The Beauty of being Truly seen…

A little while ago I read something that, in all it´s simplicity, really captured my heart and soul. So true ! So effortless! And such beautiful act of Love:

“Being truly seen is vital. People show you their best if you truly see and hear them. Whether you’re a healer or not, honor the person in front of you.”

Pamir Kiciman

This is something we all can do, no matter our own situation.  A maybe humble and small gesture of loving respect towards each other but that makes a huge difference in Lifes.
