Rhythm of life

We are creatures of habit. We are addicted to the cycle of our patterns and the way they repeat themselves. We accept our current reality as the only reality we can ever experience. We almost force the pattern to happen if we can, and relax into the expected. Our biggest fear is the unexpected.

So we should talk about rhythm. The rhythm of life, currently beating way faster than it is supposed to beat. Common practice against this is stretching the heart and the mind. Expanding the current boundaries of both the physical and the spiritual. this will create greater spirals, eventually leading you to find your natural rhythm or even better the rhythm of the universe. I think it is safe to say it is a slower but stronger beat with larger almost oceanic spirals.

Be well,

'Letting go' Precedes Happiness...

Once I was fortunate enough to attend a speech by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who said 'It is the intention which matters not the outcome'

I believe it is the capacity of 'letting go' which allows us to dismiss the importance of the outcome.

I find myself mentioning that I have absolute trust in the entire process of things, leading to whatever outcome there may be... Needless to say my belief gets tested every now and then. My ego wants to become involved and practice its power over the outcome.

'Letting go' is essentially trust in someone/something else. 'Letting go' is being able to react correctly in the face of all that may come through the flow in which this someone/something creates. As a matter of fact it is an active sense of awareness which enables you to react instantly.
