The mind is FAST, it knows the game, the metaphor better than anyone, it can outfox us all day long if we watch it and believe it is real, but if we start to see it in the same way we might watch a movie, then we can begin to decouple from its suggestions, its characters and plots. [...]

 What would you like?! There is a mountain, it is rock solid…
There is a lion on that there mountain, it is generally pretty calm, but anything it is uncertain of, the lion, it gets flighty as heck, it can’t help it, that is its nature, it will pounce…
Be the mountain, rock steady, let the lion be your messenger, fearless and dexterous…
 Have you made a choice yet? There is a beauty to the mind when it has not yet made up its mind about what it is present to as an experience, it means we are present and fully there with what is in view, whatever it may be…
When undecided we have not yet documented it, filed it away, believing we know what it is, we may in fact choose to not know what it is, to not decide, and this opens the way for more of what is in view to be appreciated fully…
The mind, at any moment, is either an open portal, or a thing of storage and conveniently filed ideas, be they wrong or right, the moment they go to storage, the moment that kind of decision about a thing is made, that we know what it is, we are no longer seeing what is there, but what is in our mind, as it ignores what it already thinks it knows, or substitutes what it feels it does not want to know with what it already knows…  Simple Honesty In an adult world, as it has evolved here on earth, it is almost impossible to be honest…
To a child, like nature, honesty is natural, until it learns otherwise, is trained, or conditioned otherwise…
As soon as such a natural honesty, of what is experienced directly, is subverted by an overriding tendency to have to lie to survive, to avoid hurt, pain, punishment, and so on, (at any level), then the natural and simple honesty of direct experience, the most potent thing we have, is masked, it becomes temporarily lost, often for a lifetime…
 A Safe Container For RAW Energy Your impatience is not always wrong, sometimes, many times, you should not wait, you should forge ahead with wild abandon! What you call impatience is an aspect of your own energy communicating to you, there are parts of you that are lighting fast, faster than this body mind can yet realize, and faster than any computer, in fact, THE fastest thing in the universe… Spontaneous flow of pure intelligence… It doesn’t like to wait, to dordle, nor should it, why should it? There is no reason why it should except what we make up and try to hem it into… “Clarity is that which brings endless value to the natural complexity we as human beings peak into as a portal of possibility”
 Your Regular Straw Mandala An expression of true wealth is appreciation, in appreciation is space and understanding, a field of awareness where clarity is present and true complexity in its fullest can be witnessed…
The definition of poor is an often unfathomable, seemingly unbreakable (to the limited awareness) low quality complexity, a masking and obscuring that makes life extremely complicated and difficult, even the simplest of tasks, of thoughts, of flights of fancy beyond the usual bounds are riddled with potential trouble and so seem ever more difficult to realize…
In wealth, there is an eye on the whole view, that expansive unfathomable array of natural complexity which is never overwhelming, but naturally fascinating, at the same time we have our feet on the pulse, in harmony, and rhythm, present to an underlying simplicity, both of that in which it all happens, and the entire sum of the contents itself, playing out as it does…  Peace “Resolving the global tension within you and meeting face to face with your true flow”
Ok, so, we have a major polarization, a fraction, and fragmentation, here on earth, many views, many pockets, entrenched idealists, unfortunately, in many cases, ideals that are on the side of violence, tension and aggression as the way to ‘change the world’…
And then we have the real peaceful warriors, the guys who know the edge and the softness, can form the energy, the power, when needed, and simply let it all go whenever it is required too…
Now who do you suppose is really going to help the world, change it long term?
 Neat Little Boxes...
We tend to use the intellect as a tool of protection and safety, of boxing off neatly, dividing away from aspects of reality, we imagine this is protection and yet when we venture into it we see it causes nothing but hurt and pain…
We are not protected by this we are diminished and made ignorant, we THINK we are protected when in reality this is not true, we are actually in more danger as we are not looking, we are not seeing, we are blinkered, narrowed, entrenched…
 Flow... You cannot anticipate what is, it already is, just as it is, right now…
This is a response to the everpresent question of the inquisitive mind (One of its favourites:)
 One of many portals...
