The Little Things ...

I enjoyed watching the live broadcast on Saturday (the evening meeting) in which John spoke of being mastered in all the little things  by what you Know the truth of in your heart ... 

"It's stressful when your self masters you.

What you Know 

is meant to master you."
*

 "You can't live unmastered.

You can choose what it is

that masters you."

*

"What masters you in the little things

is what will master you in the big things."

*

"You give mastery of your self 

in the little things

then when something big comes along

your pattern is set;

you'll behave the same way."

 

Yes, when it matters more than anything, it's not so difficult to be mastered by what we Know is true, even in the tiniest and the most mundane acts ...  And I am reminded of a book I once heard of and which I didn't buy, because I felt I 'got it' just from the title: 'How you do Anything is how you do Everything." 

Meanwhile if you're here (or on your way here) for the Spring Seminar (it begins this Thursday) then buckle up Dorothy, it's sure to be an awesome ride ...

Until next time,

Love,

Love in another Realm

The lovely floatiness of the above image reminds me of the weightlessness of love, especially the kind that lifts you up above this world and little self concerns.  The following snippet is from Friday's meeting, where John spoke of the real opportunity of being alive and in form:

"You are in your evolution

and you being Love

in the midst of what self you have

engages your evolution.

 You can't see your evolution

while you're in the opportunity.

You'll see it when the opportunity's gone.

You'll see it after you've died."

You may not see it, but you do Know it.  And John spoke of how being One with that Knowing, in the midst of everything that isn't yet like your own Being, is what "moves your evolution and transforms your self."

He explained how we do not need to have an integrated self for such evolution, only to be "in full response to the direct Knowledge that's in your heart."

I loved hearing him go on to say that life isn't as we perceive it from within our self but that it is actually only as we Know directly in our heart and how such Knowledge doesn't offer an understanding - it only offers you your own Being.  Well, that's more than enough, right?  When I'm in anything of my own Being, I'm rightside-up, the love that surpasseth this world fills my heart and falls softly on all that I see ...

And John is such a wonderful example of one who has truly evolved and thus given form to what is most dearly Known in the heart.  Being around him then offers a not-to-be-missed opportunity itself, to be in the presence of what that looks like, moves like, speaks like, etc ...  And if you're in Europe and you can get yourself to Venwoude in The Netherlands in the next couple of days, you could be at the marvellous four day retreat with John.  It begins this Thursday and runs through until Sunday and for more information on that, just click here.

In other news we have our very own Spring Seminar starting next week here in Edmonton and soon after that I'll be conducting our next Dialogue, so if you'd like to add your own question to that, you know what to do (just type it as a 'comment').

Until next time,

Love (the big floaty kind),

Your love & your life

It's almost Spring!

Unusually, we had a meeting here on Saturday, during which John spoke of being in Response - in your living - so that your whole day belongs to This ...

"It's not a performance

it's an orientation.

Your movement in This

makes This your love and your life.

Surviving doesn't belong to your self,

surviving belongs to you in This.

Survival isn't a necessity for your self,

it is a Goodness enabler for you."

It 's a short Post today, with a reminder that the Spring Seminar starts soon, from 2nd - 8th April, and for more information on that, please click here.

Until next time,

Love,

A Juicy Exploratorium

John de Ruiter

 "When you're connected to your Being,

your self is a juicy exploratorium.

Just like when you were really little."

JdR - 8 March 2015

 

I love how John makes clear that it is the self which is innocent in all this - that it is really only how we are choosing to be, within our self, that determines what our self is like.  As adults, for the most part, we have gotten into the terrible habit of making it all seem so complicated, whereas in truth it's not so difficult to be in a much sweeter heart-space; so long as we're wiling to be honest to what we Know and drop the self-importance game.  Here's some more from Sunday evening: 

 

"You Know the quality

and you're in direct response to it.

You don't stop along the way

to check how that feels.

Your self isn't your reference point

- Knowing is. 

Your response is that you Love." 

*

"In your heart you were absorbed

into what you Knew.

What you Knew then filled your heart.

That fullness occupies a deeper body 

and brings your nervous system into it,

because you're in it."

 

When the questioner asked about "longing and lack" being able to pull you out, John said: "You use it to pull you out.  Nothing can pull you out.  Nothing can stop you from coming in."  Yes, it only seems like we're not free  when old patterns of distortion get triggered and then we believe those thoughts and feelings ... but, the fabric of the old Matrix, which has bound humanity on this planet for so many eons, is finally starting to loosen its hold ...  And what we Know the truth of in our hearts calls us forward and deeper, beyond and back home; One with what we Know ... 

 Until next time,

Love,

The Portal's Open, the Times are Changing

"The Portal's open,

   you're Responding

- the times are changing."

 Thus spoke John during Sunday evening's meeting and short though that snippet is, it says so much about what is occurring here.

In the afternoon meeting that same day, I found myself in the Chair and moving into the Deep with John in a new way.  It was wonderfully intimate as he took me into his own Deeper levels, thus showing me, most viscerally, what it means to be in a level of total completion; an other-worldly ocean of Oneness, so clean and so relaxed, so unseen yet so solid.  Just to have been in that crystalline total completion was so good, so good.  Such forays beyond the norm of this world and the programmed self is what being here with John is all about - real learning.

And it's delightful and so nourishing to be with him as he both exemplifies what is beautifully possible to be, in form here on this Earth, and also guides us all individually and collectively into what evolves us in a Deep, True and most meaningful way.

His transmission continues to be strong in the meetings, creating a powerful sea, that clean, pure ocean of It, inviting us to step out of what is old and into the new - and that's where John is, of course, that very portal as quoted at the start of this week's Post.  The term "cosmic wormhole" was another phrase he used over the weekend.  Yes it's quantum, what John provides in the meetings and, through direct Response, it really can take you somewhere altogether different ...

There was certainly the flavour of those elusive other spaces during Sunday's evening meeting, and John did give us a little bit more in speaking of such things when he said, "Levels and Regions ... As it picks up more, Realms and Dimensions ..."

I, like many others here, simply love being with John and learning and growing and changing and being part of something completely wonderful and positively sparkling.

There'll be another dialogue soon perhaps, so if you've got any questions for John please type it as a comment below - thank you!

Until next time,

Love,

Shanti
