Complete in the Mmm ...

It seems to me like this world continues to be squeezed , with ensuing continued and increasing pressures of daily life, for all of us living in it.  And as life becomes more hectic and there's less time to do more things, there is, as always, only one place to be - that tiny lovely little bit we know the truth of in our hearts (without necessarily understanding what that is).  It's ever more important nowadays to soften and open, as all that pressure blows our cover on subconscious patterns, making life seem so difficult in our experience at times and with the softening and opening within allowing a beautiful relinquishing of the hold we once had on such patterns.

I love seeing how much John embodies the truth he speaks and it was good on the weekend to tune in to some of the live broadcasts from Israel.  Here's a few snippets for you, from Saturday's open mic gathering (10am Alberta time), when the questioner was asking John about being complete:

"If you look for something

in your self or in your life

you separate from what you really are."

He went on to elaborate that, from the perspective of the self, it seems like nothing, but it's as simple as relaxing into what you know in your heart, where nothing needs to change for you to be what is already complete - and where

"The more you unconditionally relax

the more you Have."

Later John spoke of the numerous times throughout the day when we are naturally a little bit like our own Being, but how we tend to take those moments for granted, such as when the sun first hits our body when we walk outside, or when we stand under a hot shower, and even when we eat food or drink something.  He likened those pleasurable experiences in the body as being something like, "Mmm."  As we begin to notice such moments with greater awareness, we can see how they do indeed point to something deeper that we Know is occurring within and we can begin to see that we can have that kind of response, without those outside triggers:

"All it is,

is you being in your heart.

The quieter the 'Mmm' is,

the more powerful it is."

Mmm... yes!  And the greater the pressure, the more we need to relax into what is so ok within; into that tiny little bit we Know the truth of in our heart - in a sense, it's moving in the opposite direction to the pressure.  That's what life's all about if you're an advocate of the Truth and John's teaching - it's the only way home - to relax, to open and soften, to be in that most tiny, most quiet, so lovely Mmm...  All unseen, so known, and so other than this world...

Until next time,

Love,

Shanti
