Move That Mountain

Move that Mountain

You may wonder how 'moving a mountain' is an opportune time to surrender?
But moving a mountain is not as hard to do as you may think, given a little perspective, a smidgen of knowledge and a dash of understanding. 
Change is all about surrender . . .
Whilst our physical body fights ferociously to find peace and rest, our heart fortifies and hopes for joy and wonder - our mind holds the sword and swings the battle axe and declares war!
And when the mind goes to war - all engines fire, all cogs turn, all mechanisms grind and the chemicals rush to carry the messages. War does not have to be bloody and dirty, nor does it have to be fought on foreign soil . . .
War can be fought in our own homes and in our own bodies . . . in our own minds!

The mountain . . .
is
within
you.

The war is within you. The battle is within you. The surrender lies within you.

Change is the ability to recognise when the battle is over, not lost, and the war a waste of energy and effort at a price that can never be paid and a cost that can never be counted.
In the balance?
Our future . . . that is what the war of the mind is all about. We think it is about money, clothes, image, love, sex, things, jobs, pets, food, drinks, drugs, land, people, politics, religions and the list goes on and on.
When we surrender the battle and refuse to go to war within our own minds, we cause a junction of futures to appear. Futures that never existed whilst the battle raged. Warriors can walk right past a stream littered with gold nuggets, and because they are so focused on the next battle, they miss the opportunity in front of them for a bright and prosperous future. 
New futures open up when the mind is at peace, the body is relaxed and the heart is open.
So surrender,
Give peace a chance,
Allow the mountain to be moved,
For it only appeared when you brought an obstacle into your own mind.
The Mountain of itself, did not need to be there,
You needed it to be there.
For you wanted to win a battle at any cost!

Change involves surrender!

    It seems like reality is going thru a huge push, increasing the amounts of distractions and demands for attention. At the same time, I also feel a great injunction to break through. This helps me focus that the path is found in the silence.

  And yet everything says otherwise . . . I will begin with a story that speaks volumes. Years ago I met a dog, who upon approach, always lay down and turned onto its back to show its belly. A very submissive action, and no matter how I approached that dog, I could not get it to stand to be patted or given a treat. I tried and tried over an over, adjusting my countenance, voice and body langauge . . . but nothing seemed to work. So I gave it some deep thought and decided to change my approach, and whenever I was in its vicinity I would go and sit in a chair . . . I did not go towards it at all. It did not take long before that dog would creep over to where I was and the same as before, it would throw itself on the ground at my feet. I knew that a small aspect had changed but it was not enough. So, I adjusted my approach again and when I sat in that chair, I would place my arm on the armrest and dangle my hand just enough over the end, so that the dog could see it.  Eventually,...

The Way of the Wise Soul

  And the paths ahead! The world is weary with information and concepts thrown haphazardly out into the public domain. One would assume that with all the words spliced together to form sentences thickened with colourful meanings, there would be a clear and direct way of smoothly navigating reality. But this is duality! Reality navigation is necessary. The obstacles, options, choices, and unique skills weave a path loaded with dichotomy and adventure. The routes through this reality are designed to go anywhere imaginable and without boundaries except for the limitations within the consciousness of the dreamer. Heavens? There are many. And hells? There are even more because they are manifested by creative minds. Going on an average of daily thoughts per person, we can safely say that it is easier to imagine the worst than the best. Just look around and listen to the voices! Why would the world be in its current position? Regardless of your beliefs about politics, religions,...

An idiot waiting to blossom

AN IDIOT WAITING TO BLOSSOM Like most idiots, the flower remains tightly bound to its current course and holds stubbornly to a divine procedure. It must remain tightly bound and closed to the world for an allotted time before it is signalled to open slowly.   Inside its complex being, there is held a kaleidoscope of colours, fragrances and beauty and the best kept secret . . . the ability to seed others just like it! The idiot in the same picture, does this slightly differently - Bound by time, as is the blossom, and sheltered from the world, as is the blossom, the idiot struggles and resists the natural divine procedure. From within the idiot bloom, there arises chaos and an intimate internal struggle - one half wanting to remain closed and unseen and the other, wanting immediate exposure . Both . . . unnatural. The idiot's struggle is both insecure and unsure, as well as ambitious and brave and whilst being natural ingredients for the right kin...
