Nature is Ancient

Nature has been around longer than humans have on this planet. The environment being set like a stage setting on Broadway before the curtains part to reveal the opening act. The audience eagerly anticipating the drama that will sweep the stage momentarily. This excitement is tangible and can be felt like an earthquake tremor in the auditorium we call "EARTH". We are the star attraction of the private show we experience in life. Shakespeare was quoted as saying "All the world is a stage, and we are but actors and actresses making our entrances and exits" Good analogy. In our personal dramas we encounter at times what can only be viewed as insurmountable odds. There are many times in my life when I feel like a "Spartan" going up against the world in just one day. I remember that when things become turbulent, this is when you must "center" and bring all your awareness to your breath. I have done well when I have put this principle into play. The results are staggering. It truly boggles my mind that such precious gems of insight get lost so rapidly in the moment to moment hustle and bustle of ones "day".
However, to acknowledge such things are sincere indications that your "higher-self" is speaking the ancient language of the "soul". This is a natural occurrence. These dialogues between your "higher-self" and your "soul" are buried under the so called "realities of life". I am truly amazed at the fact that one can know such a thing is true and not act on it consistantly. Why do I repeat so many mistakes over and over again? Knowing the end result will not be something that I would consider to be desireable, I am compelled at times to do the opposite of what is needed or called for in that very moment. According to Buddhism, thier is the eight fold path, and, one of those passages lead to right action due to the path of right understanding, which goes along with right concentration/ meditation and so on and so forth. The philosophy the "Buddha" instilled in his fellow humans that gathered around to listen to him, when investigated with an open heart and mind is amazingly beautiful. I have learned much from it. I practiced some of its precepts long ago. Perhaps it is time for the return to the basics of this practice and apply lovingly to this "battered soul" of mine. In talking with a very dear friend of mine, I once mentioned the effect of simply laying my eyes upon a figure of the Buddha, would bring "out" of my beigness such an overwhelming calm that at times the feeling was remarkable. The power of such a simple thing as an image of another being with thier eyes shut, is simply astounding. I am amazed when ever there is a Buddha figurine present. It almost seems as if, the connection is spiritual in nature, and of another time and place, like reincarnation. I know that the moments surrounding me are shifting into a new vibratory frequency. I am aware of this internally and know that what is to come will be sublime and benefit all. These are the thoughts that are most pressing on my mind today. Well, untill my next revelation, "Be Well, Be Whole, until ALL are ONE!
