NON DUAL BODY MIND
Growing up, my life, like yours, was filled with contrasts;
the exquisite grandeur of Nature, music, dance, dogs, laughter, freedom, playfulness, intelligence ...
​
and the chaotic hysteria of the human condition;
hierarchy, misunderstanding, anxiety, cruelty, enslavement, guilt, anger, confusion, abandonment, violence, shame.
​
How could all this Beauty exist amidst the madness of separation, disease and death?
​
Was suffering necessary? Noble? Inevitable?
​
If I took my own life, would that assuage my pain and struggle?
​
Could I escape?
​
Why did bad things happen to good people?
​
What was God?
​
​
At times, a universal, omnipresent Love had filled my heart and mind,
a formless field, vast and all-encompassing,
It sometimes gently spoke to me,
​
from deep inside
It dwelled.
​
​
What was It?
​
Why would It create this polarity we call life ?
​
Why make complication and confusion when Love is so perfectly simple ?
​
It took me 30 years to realize,
It hadn't.
​
​
How did I get here ?
In 1971, my brother introduced me the to I Ching.
​
It helped me learn to accept the ebb and flow of life and ride the wave,
​
rest in something wiser than the way things seem to be.
No more raging against injustice, I settled into a sort of poetry, even reverie, at times,
​
entrusting my life, more and more, to the greater Whole, Tao, Buddha, Spirit, Self...
​
allowing whatever needed to occur, to occur, whenever, however it did,
​
innately knowing that nothing is ever really as it appears.
​
​
​
There were highlights, moments of sheer recognition,
​
aha's that left me trembling in awe
​
and laughter as the densities lessened and the comedy revealed.
​
​
​
I also wrote in journals, O many, many journals, mostly burned now on the beach.
There was always a Voice inside me, ever kind, without condemnation, of anything, or any circumstance, or any one.
​
​
I came to trust this Voice,
​
pure Love, intelligence, inspiration,
and eventually, a long time later, I came to recognize It as my own pure Self,
not the me I seem to be, but the me I AM, WE ARE. GOD IS.
