Supporting Non-Duality and Awakening in Asheville and Beyond

(C) 2009 Howard McQueen

So many powerful, ancient, external influences of nature:
hurricanes, lightning, tornadoes, earthquakes ...

Six.five billion humans and their defense and politically-charged institutions,
along with the exploitative globally-based corporations,
meddling and manipulating, stepping across boundaries, mucking all around.

So many indwelling influences running around within:
animal drives, desires and longings of the body-mind-emotions,
the incredible abstracting qualities of the mind,
offering such allures to step out and escape.

So many aspects of self to honor,
to shepherd and guide into a peaceful equilibrium.
To be present, watching and witnessing all these energetic forces inter-play (enter play),
to be the overseer of our worldly experience,
not in reaction to ...
in the repose of responsiveness,
right action in the moment,
in the service of evolution of life itself.

So fully embedded in life, that life uses us as it sees fit.

All we need "do" is stop our believing and behaving
as if we are separate from life.
This is called letting go, surrendering self, allowing Life to flow through you, me, we,
unimpeded, unresisted Oneness.
