Expanding Your Flow of Being
October 23rd, 2009Resonance is a major component of Being. If I have a whole lot of problems, and I’m really feeling really bound up by all the problems and all the circumstances that I have to deal with, then I’m not resonating. I can’t resonate if I feel bound up by my mortgage, my wife, my kids, the school system, the government, gas prices,… all of these things. If I feel that way, I could also say, “I’m not feeling the Flow of Being. In fact all I’m feeling is structure, structure, structure! Bound, bound, bound!”
So what I’m saying is, at that pointand we spoke about this in The Everyday Sanyasinuse a little practice to take just a little bit deeper breath. Try to find a sense of expanding flow within you. As you find that, and as you open up to it, you will begin to flow moreever so softly and gently. You will begin to resonate more. Where your shoulders were forward, and your sternum and head were downwhere you couldn’t see anything because you were looking at your toesall of a sudden your head will begin to raise up. Your sternum will come up, and you will breathe in. You will feel a sense of Flow of Being.
But what’s really happening is that you’re opening yourself up to the awareness of your Flow of Being. There is no circumstance outside of you that is more powerful than your Flow of Being. That’s what’s really far out. There is no circumstance outside of youthere is no circumstance in your outside worldthat is stronger or more powerful than the flow of your being. That’s because, with the Flow of your Being, possibility enters into your mind and into your action.
Once possibility enters into your life, you begin to play with circumstance instead of being bound by circumstance.
As you become a Co-Creator with the other aspects of your self that are singing various Songs of your Soul, and as you integrate those aspects of your self into who you are today, you’re becoming even more of a Co-Creator. And the real fun thing about this is that, because you’re seeing the aspects of yourself much more compassionately, you actually begin seeing people around you in the world much more compassionately.
