Gaia: Actuality by Spirituality

What's going on in this world...

http://songofstorms.gaia.com — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 02:53:16 GMT

The year is 2008.

The earth is shifting back towards the galactic center. All is well.

(although "all being well" is sure taking some forms that can be very easily and perhaps adequately interpreted as: "things are not very good at all in some places")

But we are all in hand, are we not?

The year is 2008.

The cosmos is an unstoppable force. Our reality is shifting around us, and we are either shifting with it or quickly finding ourselves less and less in-phase with the world around us.

A good question to ask ourselves these days is: "Do I believe in the impossible?"

or:

"What, exactly, is impossible?"

Or:

"Exactly how many seeming disparate peoples and faiths predicted right around now a massive global reality shift again? Was it not all the way from central/south america to tibet?"

I used to think people who knew had to facilitate this change, or help it along.

That's like a H2O molecule thinking it has to make a wave.

The waves happen. This change is happening. It's all around you.

We can be the change, like water can be the wave.

I am one with the wave.

There is another world

Hm, you weren't talking to me, my friend, but I found that passage pretty interesting. (I have a thing for lions : ) Anyone care to speak on this passage in detail?

Hi Janos! I'm in complete agreement, although I've been cautioned to understand that there are many paths. Still, service is definately part of the paradigm for me, and an ever-increasing one, given the movement of the world and the cosmos. I don't think you'll be booted out here-- since there's only three of us, that is, the two of us make the majority. : ) At least for now. : P anyway, I doubt our gracious cultivator would disagree either. The world is a terrible mess of 'unnecessary' suffering, and if we want a corner of this cyberspace to be devoted to service of the kind you mean-- the elder sisters and brothers-- then I suppose we'd better create it, eh?

Applied spirituality

The possible good world (PGW) is not going to arrive by magic regardless of how fervently we envision it as a possibility. It will be the result of workers in the world of concrete manifestation being inspired to right action because of those humans who chose to only see the positive and apply the Hear no evil; speak no evil; see no evil path.

But these light workers on the higher planes of spirituality need to honour the workers in the field in their daily strugle to practice spirituality through engagement with the many world problems that maim and destroy so lives by the dozens every minute.

I tried to express something like this in a community of love-radiating people. As a result I had been summarily banned from it.

I may have been clumsy in my expression but never meant personal offense to anyone by saying it; but have not been given the opportunity to apologise and to refine and explain myself:

Practical Spirituality is marked by personal development on the three levels of Meditation, Study, Service.

We meditate on what we study and on how any wisdom, extracted from study via meditation, can be put into action through service.

If personal change within does not manifest in due course in vigorous involvement in service activities in the outer world, our spirituality is not of a practical kind * and will not contribute to the task of Externalizing on the physical plain the presence of the spiritual hierarchy of the Elder Brothers of the human family.

This community is full of stunning imagery and wording of spirituality but I confess to being confused and saddened by the seeming lack of awareness that every minute of the time while we are thinking of spiritual development hundreds of children die of starvation related diseases.

There must be some serious dearth of practical spirituality in this hallowed corner of cyberspace.*

*OK this is over the top, but hey, the world is in a terrible mess.

Hi! Call me Alan, I'm in New York City, Rome II. 1. I'm blind to it, by grand design. It's called the child's road, it's called many things. Its what one finds at the end of Campbell's "hero's journey." 2. Expertise isn't an idea I particularly like, in the fact that it demands separation from real expertise and imagined-- imagined expertise perhaps being a version of you that you're sure you are going to be. But I'm a writer of prose and a musician, in terms of expertise. 3. I follow the grand design. Now it's saying "the time is now." We're very lucky to be here and it's an honor I won't betray by not living up to it. In other words, I'll honor this time by living up to it. Thank you!
