SOAR

When the loving heart simply asks, “How do we best find forgiveness in this situation?” and you take it into meditation and you ask for help, the help that comes is not spirit help versus your help; it’s simply love, one voice of love coming through whatever source it can come through. Let go of “Who is it coming from?” It’s just the voice of love. You can tell when you are tuned into that voice of love because there’s not a lot of contraction and grasping. The body energy is open, connected. ~ Aaron

This morning begins the fall retreat with Barbara Brodsky, John Orr, and Aaron. I will be physically at home, serving as Zoom host, but my heart is also with each of you.

This morning as I readied my space, I noticed some words on a promo piece for Zan Lombardo’s Forge & Scroll exhibit:

It is time to give up deeply….He could do no more. Transformation appears as the death, at its right time.

As I wrote the words into my journal, along with the comment, “I’m not sure from where the words came,” I also hear: “The words came from the ONE.”

I played with the letters in one.

O – N – E

Only now energy.

I had selected some special healing stones to place on my side table. I put the spirit (or love) rock that says FORGIVE YOURSELF on my computer.

Then I wrote in my journal my often-expressed desire of spirit: What would you have me know?

The voice answered:

“No one is going on retreat. The ONE is present. You will have a split second of grief as you let go before you soar.”

S – O – A – R

See once and release.

The retreat ends late Sunday afternoon. The Buddhist practice of dedicating merit is that we practice not only for ourselves, but for the benefit of all the people in our lives and in the world as well.

May all beings come to the end of suffering.

May all see once and release.

May all know peace.

Namaste’
