Is admitting fears
or a perceived vulnerability a personal failure; a systemic weakness of thought
or is it a construct of the ego’s ability to sustain itself?
The desire to become
something, empowers the ego and feeds the illusion of attachment. The action of
BEING acknowledges the spirit and nourishes the truth that by letting go we
always have.
We are both physical and spiritual beings. When we perceive,
through our physical bodies via the intellect and instinct each moment of being
is precious because we tie it to time. Our spirit, however, the true essence of
what we are, sees each moment as eternity and perfect, for linear time does not
exist.
If we accept that premise, the expression, "Live in the
Moment" takes on a different meaning. We can live in the moment, all it takes is the
desire to do so and when we make that choice the result is love, for fear
cannot exist when love of self is present.
Understanding the dichotomy of letting go, to always have,
is a constant struggle of life. Implicit
is the understanding that we are not our bodies. Our bodies only house what we
really are -- spirit!
The body is a beautiful mechanism brought into form that
allows the spirit to exist in form and in the density of this environment. When the spirit is finished with what it came
here to do, it discards the body and returns to the Source and the body returns
to the earth. This is why the body and the earth are considered sacred. They
are of the same substance with similar functions. Containers of spirit!
When we go deep within our being we remember this truth and
much more. Awareness is an equal gift from God to all. It is the remembering
that is selective by each of us, and the levels of enlightenment are the
precipitations of our choices. There are
only two emotions available to humankind. Love and fear. All other emotions are derivatives. We will remember more, love ourselves more,
if we let go of fear.
