Supporting Non-Duality and Awakening in Asheville and Beyond

(C) 2009 Howard McQueen

We are discovering that when we center in our heart,
there is a quickening of non-aggressive energy.
This energy courses through our human instrument,
and when this intent is held
gently as encouragement to awaken,
the white magic is set free to awaken in others.

Others see this energy as their own imaginative reflection.
They either drink it in deeply, or reactivate their own aggressive tendencies;
They push their own "buttons" of stored resistance.

The resistance arises as projections,
pointers to internal, stuck energy,
formed around experiences,
now hardened into beliefs,
that deeply sap and kidnap our authenticity.

This is the Illumination Stage of Awareness,
where we get to use our "new eyes" and vision to
real eyes the gifts hiding out in our shadows.

All we need do initially,
is rest with the reflected projection.
Then
feel and lean into this energetic dynamic
and meet a hidden aspect of ourself.

Continuing this type of processing
is uncomfortable,
as well as completely transformational.

You will be undoing and up-rooting old fear/anger/grief behaviors and patterns
and regaining a groundless freedom to allow love to grow and flourish.

Compared to living in prison
I'' ve discovered adopting this process
is worth whatever the price of admission.

Seven years ago I had the big "C". with it came the awareness of how fear /worry saps energy and then how being in the moment creates it.
You see if I went into worry or fear I had about 10minutes before I crawled back to bed exhausted.
When I stayed in the moment just dealing with what was presented in that moment, I had the energy to do 8 hours of whatever presented itself that day.
I had always known I was a worrier and yet didn't realized how much I controlled it and then how much it controlled me.
Letting go was so easy when faced with the choice 1 hour of life a day or 8 hours. I choose life.

Now I look back at the gift of cancer and the awareness that it created and I am thankful. Today the pace is slower and each day is filled with gratitude. I feel blessed.

My prison was worry.

Sometimes change it self is a simple choice. The grace that fills the space of that choice is the ease of being in the moment.

Liz, thank you for sharing your experience of breaking free of the prison in C.
I hope we all can come around to realizing how easy choice can be, to vote again and again for quality of life.

Cheers - Howard
