THE VAST EXPANSE


I
acknowledge the privilege of being alive in a human body at this moment,
endowed with senses, memories, emotions, thoughts, and the space of
mind in its wisdom aspect.

It
is the prayer of my innermost being to realize my supreme identity
in the liberated play of consciousness, the Vast Expanse. Now is the
moment, Here is the place of Liberation.

Witness
the contents of mind, the visions and sounds, the thoughts, as clouds
passing through the vast expanse - the sky-like nature of mind. The
rootedness of Being is in emptiness, clarity and awareness: unborn,
unspoilt, stainlessly pure.

The
infinite vibratory levels, the dimensions of interconnectedness are
without end. There is nothing independent. All beings and things are
residents in your awareness.

I
subject my awareness to the perfection of being, the perfection of
wisdom and perfection of love, all of these being co-present in the
Vast Expanse. I share this panorama of Being and appreciate all I can
share it with...the seamless interweaving of consciousness with each
moment.

Create
perfection wherever you go with your awareness. That is why this teaching
is admired by artists--they sense the correctness of the response to
life as creative. Life is infinite creative play. Enjoyment and participation
in this creative play is the artists profound joy. We co-author every
moment with universal creativity.

To
bare our souls is all we ask, to give all we have to life and the beings
surrounding us. Here the nature spirits are intense and we appreciate
them, make offerings to them--these nature spirits who call us here--sealing
our fate with each other, celebrating our love.

I
am an intersecting kaleidoscope of Being in a rainbow refractive wave
pattern: a corpuscle of light on the ocean...the transparency of my
body with the rocks...sometimes the only way to summarize my feelings
is to draw--to collapse the frenzy in my limbs enough to make a mark
out of profound appreciation for my existence.

Share
your presence with others, no boundaries, completely openly lovingly.
Love is what makes us alive, that is why we feel so alive when we love.
Service is being available to love. Life is the combustion of love.
That we love ourselves here, that is the true magnificence in the mountains
of being. We are constantly drawing the line between love and not love--enter
into the Non-duality Zone, and all judgements dissolve in the Vast
Expanse.

It's
as though we are co-conspirators of consciousness--everyone, everywhere,
everywhen, mixing up our openable minds. It's as though we could gather
clouds in the sky and people into our lives. Like an eruption of consciousness,
we discover the most important force is love. Experience yourself as
the Source and appreciate every moment as perfection. Sunrise--Sunset.
Thank you, Thank you, Creator, profound unstoppable connectedness of
all beings, pattern to everything, most radical no-thing, the Vast
Expanse.
