The Real You
You are Energy – a ball of intelligent light.
Like a drop of water in the ocean –
a drop of dew on the grass.
Momentarily you have an indiviuality
Eventually you will return to the ocean-
or evaporate into the mist
to float like a cloud,
return to earth as a drop of rain
join with others to form a stream or a river
back to the ocean
back to the sky.
You are intelligent –
You can choose your direction.
Your direction is determined by what you want.
You are free to want anything
just beware – the universe must be balanced –
water seeks its own level –
The universe runs on balance.
It is smooth flowing.
Lightening is a release of energy.
Tension, it is erratic.
Tension, stress – must be let go.
It is destructive –
But it must be released to maintain balance.
The universe loves balance and smooth.
The wind blows the sand to fill the footprint.
Water flows to its own level-
it can be contained and directed, but only by an overpowering force.
It quietly waits for a weak spot to release itself.
Planets glide through space in smooth trajectories.
There are no straight lines in space, it’s all curves.
But it is smooth.
It flows.
Sometimes things collide – there is a release of energy.
People interact – it’s called communication.
Learning how to communicate clearly is one of the things you have come to planet earth to learn.
You’ve come to learn to ask for what you want.
You did not come here to be loyal to anything outside yourself. You came to be loyal to yourself.
Planet earth is organised by Science, Religion and Society.
These try to explain the universe.
It seems there are different camps on planet earth based on different belief systems.
These belief systems are small units of growth. Like a classroom or a curriculum.
Science
Religion all have truth in them
Society
But they are only a classroom.
They are a means to learn and grow.
One of the main problems on planet earth is people become possessive of their classroom. They don’t want to move on.
They are stuck in a little picture and are afraid to go to a bigger school.
They have learnt how to control their little classroom and have grown too comfortable to want to change.
The universe is very patient, it is in no hurry. Many people cling to a concept or a belief that has served its purpose.
Do you know what happens when you learn a lesson?
You become lighter.
You release something that has been holding you back and you feel like your floating.
That is one of the feelings you can have.
The feeling of being light.
That’s what meditation is all about –
feeling your lightness.
It’s what yoga is about –
Tuning into your lightness.
It is what happens with good nutrition –
Lightness.
It’s what it feels like after a good romp in the hay;
after a good run;
or any strenuous exercise;
having solved problem;
or built a deck.
It is the feeling of lightness that everyone is after.
“Whatever floats your boat!”
Life is complicated
The more you try to figure it out, the worse it gets –
until you give up –
then,
you get it.
So you are like a drop of water that fluctuates between having an identification as a single drop and being a part of the ocean as an indistinct body of water.
This is what your should or invisible part is like
your energy part
The you that has the energy – there you really are.
The you –
The Real You
is the one.
You cannot think it – you can only experience it.
Can you feel it?
Can you find it?
Can you tune into it?
Has your breathe showered and deepened as you turn your attention to the Real You.
Your body is like a boat on the water.
The water is the real you.
If you leave your boat and dive into the water – you must come back to the surface to breathe.
You must get back in the boat to stay alive.
Being alive means keeping The Real You and the physical body connected. Being alive requires staying out of the water.
You must breathe(among other things) to stay alive-
Stop breathing and the real you drifts away from the body.
You must stay in the boat to stay alive.
You can swim in the water – but you must come to the surface eventually to breathe.
When you do stop breathing and the real you drifts away from the body, the body returns to the earth as dust. The real you continues to exist as intelligent energy out in the universe.
Like a drop of water that enters the ocean.
completely absorbed.
One with all.
We need to drink water to stay alive.
Our bodies are portable sacks of a water-based food processing machine.
We need to stay in the boat to stay alive.
We need to breathe to stay alive.
We need to drink water to stay alive.
Unfortunately we are here on planet earth for only a short time –
a blink of the eye compared to the time span of eternity.
Imagine the lifetimes in each drop of water in the surf!
An infinite universe is hard to comprehend.
Fortunately, from the perspective of the Real You, it just seems natural,
not a problem in any way.
Once you look at life from the perspective of the Real You everything falls into place.
Everything is understood;
The Big Picture seems obvious;
You know what life is all about;
You feel the light that you are.
Life actually becomes a joy as you find yourself filled with enthusiasm and joy.
Living your life as the Real You.
How can you worry if you are light?
If you can tune into your light
How can you be anything else but light?
It may take some practice –
You may have to overcome years of training –
to tune into your light.
But it can be done.
Remember, stay in your boat-
Row your own boat
Keep breathing
The rest just falls into place.
