Making it Easy

Contrary to popular belief amongst most Earth plane dwellers, we are in fact powerful Beings!  As such, being aligned with what we know the truth of in our hearts is not so difficult, even when we're experiencing something which feels difficult on the level of the accustomed self (our own or another's).  Opening and softening is the way, and is the only way, Home.  And it is easy and the more we acquaint ourselves with the loveliness that we always have within (yes always, because it's True you) the easier it gets to say yes to openness and softness of heart being our walk, through all of life.  What I'm realizing is how wonderful it actually is; how this all works, how it plays out and how you don't get to enter your heart's knowing without paying the cost, making it all so real.  The cost is all that we've taken to heart as being something that defines who we are, a held onto egoic system of belief; and it's worth pretty much nothing.  Certainly not compared to the simple beauty of a rested, open and soft heart - and then the deeper levels, discoverable through that doorway of knowing in the heart, are ever more lovely for sure.  Here's some snippets for you now, from just over a week ago, (on Sunday 21st Feb) when John, in speaking of the difference between the accustomed self and the Being, spoke of that 'tragic split':

"It doesn't hold on its own

- so then really there is no split.

It's only where you sustain it,

where you need it."

He went on to speak of letting core-splitting honesty germinate in your person, marking the end of the split and you being all different in your life:

"It becomes most real

when you, as a person, bow into it

without a ripple of loss.

That's the end of the split

and of your personal life as you've known it.

If it isn't only easy,

you're making it difficult."

*

"There is only one kind of surrender

that is full of love and ease

and that is when 

surrender is absolute."

If we are not coming from an open and soft heart, we are living in illusion.  Openness and softness of heart has to be there if we are going to live in what is actually real and true, it is an absolute must; it's science in a sense.  In coming from what is deeper within than the accustomed self, we open up to what we truly are and we see so much more.  That lovely space, all deeper than our accustomed self, that of our own Being within, is so much better able to handle all of life and all our difficulties; our poor little selves just aren't able to handle it when the heat is on  - and it is on, isn't it?  Come into your true nature and your true power, not with hardness and willful hanging on to what is old, but by a quiet inner unconditional surrender to that beautiful open and soft heart ... it takes you Home, easy.

Until next time,

Love,

Shanti
