Christ Supported by Angels
Francesco Trevisani (1656-1746)
Transformations...
Easter in the Western World.... We can create anew to inspire our earth-bound views to transform and expand, to re-look and release old concepts associated with any season and discover deeper meaning within the symbolic scenes played.
The wisdom of the flower's consciousness is found in it's stillness. When we are 'caught-up' in our learned ideas and concepts that have been passed through generations of limited thought, we cannot still the mind. Therefore all we see is a conditioned reality of conflicting thoughts and beliefs embedded in a history of right and wrong from which wars are made. And judgments made with that measuring stick brings separation which prevents our freely Loving One Another. Ironically, it is our judgments that create the very 'right and wrong' that supposed are the reasons for judgments. Ah, the chicken and the egg!
Spinning...
The 'concept' perfectly formed, [or imperfectly for that 'matter'] pops into existence.....and existence, in these terms, means into the realm of time and space. And coming into existence can only take place in the moment of coming into existence, and from that moment spins outward into appearances that now are seen as [interpreted in spacial dimensions] existing in what we call 'past' or 'future' time relative to what we call 'present', all of which are aspects of the moment of coming into existence. That is to say, then, that the chicken and the egg come into existence simultaneously and when the concept of them spins outward it echoes as cyclical so it 'seems' one cannot see which came first, when indeed neither came first in terms of time, rather both are aspects of one concept propagating.
Be Still and See...
What one Sees is already there - happening - always was-is-will be. The Hand at Work...Moving, and having writ...So Seeing is to be Free as one's Attention's Drawn to the Sea from which Life springs.
Sometimes it seems when one reads or hears or speaks the words "Be Still and See..." that in being still one sets in motion some thing that had not been there, as though the 'Act' of "Being Still' is what sets the Hand in Motion... Yet when one Sees, one recognizes that it was already there, but unseen by the Inactivity of Not Being Still; that is by being 'busy' with the 'noise' when the Attention is Distracted to Think and in that Thinking Think it is Acting and that the Business of Noise is activity. And activity of great import! Such Thought is hardly Acting as it negates Being which is inseparable from the Act of Seeing.
Be it that The 'Act' of 'Being Still' is the Hand in Motion.
So all circumstance that emerges has already served its purpose and requires not attention to fix or change what is already done. Seeing it emerge is in the moment of happening and is a miracle indeed. It's the natural process of life.
Tapestry...
In the moment deleted as it is created, the Tapestry of Life is woven. Each frame replaces it's predecessor which emerges from the vaster Gaps between thoughts. Snapshots in echo, trails of light animation become on the silver screen of the mind......
Wow!
"Everything is Passing......"
"Right Before Your Eyes"
"Right! Before your I's"
Where does that leave us?
"On the same page?"
In the same space.
Small things that together form the images perceived.
It is Divine Balance in the Creative Dance of the Cosmos; Harmony and Loving Kindness in Expression. "All That Is" Is present here and now, in the Dance of Form.
Turning on the Lights reveals what is in the room. Namaste!

From the Artist/Poet
It's in the works... A whole range of references come in the statement made from 'in the process of' -works- as a 'work-in-progress', to it is in the works as product of process, or again 'activity' of. Such as may be of 'Faith without Works...', the oft quoted phrase, seemingly to refer to the 'product' - a provable, tangible object or objectification that says "See I have faith, I'm special, and you do not - for where is your proof?" Yet what of 'Activity - of process' of Changing States of Relationship? As opening, growing and developing, and transforming are not of 'boxing into' a dogma, stifling and decaying - where transforming becomes deadening in a negative spiral, rather are aspiring (spiral upward) and transcending of the 'going within' which in the inside-out is upward to the higher realms - not of direction in the external realm that is represented with the closed mind and 'boxing-in' of dogma as a 'casket' of 'remains'.
The Active Work of believing is faith in motion - creating by Seeing, not waiting to See what happens as a result, rather Being Still is Active Seeing - before and as it happens, not as a result, rather as constant ever changing - Alive Happening, a phenomena in space. [See the News Flash!].
Content or Extent...
The Circle of Fire is Intense! The living moment extends and cannot be contained. I often smile when hearing the phrase, there is 'no exit' from the universe. If there is 'no exit', then there is 'no entrance' as well. One cannot get away from something that does not exist. But that's another 'matter'!
We marvel at discoveries of science that something exist that is too small or moves too fast to capture proof of it's existence save for the effects - say, the trails of light, or the disturbances in the field of energy - that 'indicate' that it exists. Like this, of Black Holes or of Celestial Objects that cannot be seen save for like proofs as given above.
In light of this, one may 'find comfort' in the 'search for oneself' that the only proof of being is the emergence of the appearance of being which can only point to the essence that has already passed. Who can locate the mind? Save for the function of thought passing. And any attempt to capture and hold thought is fruitless even with our obsession to gather data's bits and bytes that no matter how arranged are only apparent in the moment of perception which follows the perception of the moment after it, again, has already happened.
Entrances and Exits...
So seems then that all our definitions of life and death are like entrances and exits to the stage, where the character is seen to come and go while the Actor plays in the wings and on the stage, seen and unseen, masked and made naked in the light. Sometimes one can feel 'alien' in ones own home, in ones own clothes - in ones own skin! Yet when one looks at the lilies growing there is an immediate sense of unity that springs forth. Sometimes when persons pass speaking on cellphones one feels as an invisible being [which is not far from the truth] as 'people' move about, yet feel so connected to the grass and trees, and to all the creatures that scamper about in them. And attention to that unity 'reminds' one that the 'people' are likewise creatures doing what their species does, so even cellphones are a part of the passing activities and habitat. And likewise that being 'alien' is natural when one is able to
"be at ease with being nothing" (Shakespeare).
Invisible Means...
And the Natural Course is Direct Perception which happens in a Flash. Yet we are fascinated by the Superimposed course - and it is that in which we write - of the Evolutionary Processes. And even though our lives on earth happen in a flash, we do delight in the process of recall which gives them 'years', a series of events and experiences in the form in multiplicity of dimensions of senses and interrelatedness that are possibilities explored. And in that too one can say it is 'natural' as it is our species expressed in the field of consciousness. Even with all the 'atrocities' of human kind, we take refuge in knowing it is passing and illusory or in a 'someday' when we are no more....
Yes, we are not without an Invisible Means of Support. Multiple instances in trails of light extend, sparked by passage of the presence within. So Being It is Seeing It. When we are Free we see miracles happen.
...So stand on your head and enjoy the day!
Poetry #49
BEYOND PSYCHOLOGY
Focus sustain the level
Doing the run of the show,
One's life,
A go getter,
Courage!
Beyond psychology
Learned reality
Creative abandon of Matrix
From which one's psyche
Emerges any - way.
Whatever it is?
The gap!
It is
Letting go,
Letting God,
Letting go,
Letting go questioning
And going for it!
Letting go resisting,
Restriction,
Holding onto old ideas.
Doing what one can
Letting God
Do the miracle,
By going the distance.
Have fun!
Let go all,
Let God come through
One!
Miracles happens,
Stop!, Stop!,
Stop the wheels,
The mind,
Clear!

Communication Is The Key!
How does one connect and/or make contact with fellow Human Beings via the World Wide Web when the spam craze of dirty data has tainted the genuine efforts put forth by legitimate individuals and organizations using cyberspace to reach the population? Everybody must be responsible in order to pick out, understand and grasp the essential information that may enhance their life endeavors without becoming attached and/or reactive to the things that may not pertain to them and their individual interest.
This is the risk we take when communicating with anyone via the internet. We are living in the information age where public access impinges upon the field of privacy due to technological advancement. We cannot be naive nor enraged when we are focused and calm with a polite remove or delete that should suffice. Mutual respect is the order of the day, (yes or no), Voila!
