LOVE & LIGHT

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider light as the food of love.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Love. Consider that love is the only real starting and destination point - but that because it is eternal - neither of these points are fathomable. Consider that love is so big that it includes what we experience as evil, hatred, and ignorance. Consider that love patiently allows all scenarios to play themselves out because it knows that everything eventually comes home to rest in what it really is. Consider that love can be invited in like a guest but does not always arrive as 'an appropriate visitor'. Consider that love always sends in light to feed us with the awareness that we require to become its worthy hosts - so that when it arrives at our heart's door - we are ready to open up to ourselves.

HEART INTENT: Light. Consider light as being a coin whose other side is darkness. Consider the possibility that light is as full of life as an untamed, unpolluted, river flowing in an untouched part of the Amazon. Consider that we can intentionally dive into and swim in its radiant current, float upon and be carried by it, and gaze into and feed ourselves from it. Consider that light can be drunk pure like a glass of fresh water, or mixed into a variety of forms like tea, coffee, and countless other beverages. Consider that light can be bathed in to wash ourselves clean and playfully surfed upon like waves of the ocean. Consider that light can be an unexpected tsunami. Consider that light is deliberate. Consider that light is the garment in which love clothes itself so that it can be...anything.

EXAMPLE & TENDERNESS

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that the tenderest way for us to reveal to any other what is important to us is to be it.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Example. Consider that those who choose to keep their mouths closed and instead allow the quiet radiance of their felt-activity to be their Soul's primary communication are the ones who impact us causally. Consider that 'teaching by example' is to live according to the resonance of, 'I be the living vision I seek to transmit to others'. Consider that communicating by example is the only form of instruction that is non-interfering, non-manipulating, non-dictatorial, and non-disempowering. Consider that even though the word may be regarded as greater than the sword – that the quiet deed always dwarfs any amount of words.

HEART INTENT: Tenderness. Consider that nothing robs the experience of restful sleep and pollutes the heart's awareness of peace more than deliberately hurting another. Consider that disciplining of children through physical punishment arises from a heart devoid of tenderness, and that this approach only gives rise to hurt adults hurting each other and their children. Consider that only through the full realization of tenderness does the lion lie down with the lamb. Consider that the realization of tenderness cannot be fully embraced while meditating alone in a cave. Consider that innocent lovers wrapped in each others soft naked flesh is God's felt-portal for feeding the world' heart with the awareness, presence, and importance of tenderness.

CONTAINMENT & ALCHEMY

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that our lives are moved most deeply by those who witness us and our experiences as being valid - who being already at peace within the resonance of their own experience - bring only the resonance of peacefulness to embrace ours.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Containment. Consider that one of our greatest unconscious habitual addictions is reactivity. Consider that reactivity is now instinctual and accepted as normal human behavior. Consider that now, when anything happens that does not align itself with what we are already programmed to experience, we immediately make up a story about it, and after repeating this story to the point of self-hypnosis, act it out based upon this tale we tell. Consider that all behavior arising from these mental projections lead nowhere - that they only take us in repetitive circles. Consider that the bravest warrior is the one who challenges this inner madness so they may respond to creation, not continually react to it.

HEART INTENT: Alchemy. Consider that through imprinted programming and ongoing self-hypnosis we now collectively believe that transformation is only possible by deliberately changing what is happening - by first stopping whatever it is we seek to change, then redirecting its flow according to what we assume is appropriate. Consider that an alchemist is a human who discovers the consequence of radiating unconditional beingness throughout all their ongoing active interactions with creation. Consider that meeting such an individual is always a transformational experience. Consider that an alchemist is one who knows that nothing transforms through interference - that one cannot 'fight cancer' or 'fight crime' or 'fight poverty' - and accomplish anything other than more fighting. Consider that an alchemist is one who has perfected the art of participating fully and actively in all aspects of their experience - yet all the while holding as their inner intent the resonance and radiance of not-interfering beingness. Consider that having no faith in the resonance of beingness is the same as having no faith in what we are.

APPLICATION & VITALITY

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that we do not have to do anything to make this moment happen - it is already and always here. Consider that we are simply invited to receive it as fully, consciously, and gracefully as possible. Consider that it is in this conscious receiving that our vitality is eternally enlivened.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Application. Consider that any healthy form of daily application simply serves to remind us of our ultimate causality - the source of all vitality. Consider that it does not matter what we choose as our daily application - but that it is beneficial we shower whatever practice it is with heart-felt gratitude for it being part of our current experience. Consider that many have no tools and are currently bouncing off the walls. Consider that to view our daily application as a 'praying of our awareness into nowness' is to bless it and to simultaneously disentangle it from our mental obsession with only doing that which brings 'results'. Consider that our daily application - our daily moment of praying of our awareness into nowness - does not have to accomplish anything - its presence within our experience is already its own reward.

HEART INTENT: Vitality. Consider that as the vitality of this entire galaxy tosses and turns into exponential increase - it is beneficial to consistently ground and center. Consider that our awakening into a day of disentangled restless discomfort does not mean something is wrong. It may simply be an indicator of increased vitality available to us that we are not yet competently containing. Consider that simply placing our attention upon the core of our planet, and then upon the majesty of our radiant sun, and then holding our awareness in these to locations simultaneously for a few moments - facilitates the balancing of our current felt-sense of our flow of causal vitality.

ACTIVITY & INTENT

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that whether we react or respond to any aspect of our blossoming experience rests purely upon the color and texture of our intent.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Activity. There is a great mis-conception that 'the realization of beingness' somehow negates the experience of engaging actively in the world. Many discovering and exploring spirituality declare, "I am just going to be, and let the universe make its move." For some of us this is just another way of saying, "Wow! I have now found a really good reason to justify being lazy." Consider that we are the universe - and that life calls upon us to act - to engage - and to participate fully in this grand adventure. Consider also that there are two frequencies of activity - response and reactivity. Consider that we are 'being' all the time, whether we are aware of it or not - whether we are engaged in activity or not. Being is what we are. However, it is likely that when we are not aware of our beingness - our activity is reactivity - and that when we are - our activity is responsible. Doing nothing may be responsive action too - it all depends upon our intent.

HEART INTENT: Intent. What is intent? I have people write me emails wanting to discuss in great detail what I am writing here - whether it is valid or not - or whether it is true or not. They want to analyze, criticize, and philosophize. They want to know if their 'point of you' is valid? Yet, initiating more mental distraction is not the intent of these writings. These writings are placed here as points of inspiration intended to fuel the felt-fabric of our personal intent. If we connect with them, and are inspired or moved into a different 'point of view' through them - this is wonderful. Consider that our intent is largely driven by our current 'point of you', and that whenever this shifts, we then have added colors for refining and redefining the hues of our current intent. However, if these writings mean nothing to us, this is valid too. Then, we disregard them and move on. They are presented here daily as a gift for the navigation of intent - this is all. However, this does require the realization of what intent is. So, what is intent?

UNITY & POTENTIAL

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that realizing the potential of our shared unity is first encountered as a deeply personal experience. Consider that unless this realization is first accomplished personally, experientially, that any outer expression of organized collective unity - no matter how cozy - remains a shallow, window-dressed facade - a fleeting reactive projection of our unintegrated discomfort.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Unity. Consider that our point of unity does not come from perceiving each other through the eyes of what we do - but through the reality of what we are. Consider that what we are is love, and that our individual expressions here in this world, no matter how seemingly devoid of love, tie us all back to this same source. Consider that love is not an emotion or a behavior or a thought form - though it may be expressed through these mediums - but that love is actually a living, breathing, eternally dancing beingness like you and I, and that our individuality simply represents one of its bodily cells.

HEART INTENT: Potential. Consider that accomplishing the art of sincerely loving all life forms comes from realizing that no matter how another sentient beingness appears outwardly in front of us - when we look at them from within - we realize we all share the same unifying potential. Consider that this resonance of unifying love cannot be realized because we think it is a good idea, or because we are told it is the right thing to do, but only through sincere, successful self-examination. Consider that the greatest potential shared by all is the capacity 'to know love' - which is the same as having the capacity 'to know thyself'. Consider that the resonance of 'intimacy' - or 'into me and see' - is the art of accomplishing our potential to experience authentic and integrated unification through honest, uncensored, uncompromising self-examination.

ANOINTING & EXPRESSION

PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that the liberation of our eternal, vibrant, crystaline essence requires a spontaneous, self-loving, anointing of ourselves as being untainted and holy in our innocence.

VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Anointing. Consider that one of the drawbacks of any religious order is its assumption that it gets to tell us what is holy and what is not, what is God and what is not, and what is loveable and what is not. Consider that we have the right to anoint ourselves and the radiance of our experience as being holy without requiring permission from sexually frustrated men and women wearing long black dresses and sporting disapproving foreheads. Consider that we have the absolute right to reach into the depths of our own heart, there to grab handfuls of love-soaked stardust, and to scatter it indiscriminately with random child-like enthusiasm upon all as being holy. Consider that whoever says we do not have the right to anoint ourselves and our experiences accordingly simply needs a hug and a pointer to their own bag of stardust.

HEART INTENT: Expression. The dragon loves to curl up in the dark caverns of the earth, to swim lazily through the deep water of the ocean, to fly playfully through air, and to laugh like thunder with bursts of fire. The dragon is the doorway into the elemental Kingdom where all life shimmers, alive, vital, in luminescent auric radiance. When George killed the last dragon he wept like a child as he watched the slain beast transform into the beautiful blood-soaked Queen of the Earth's Spirit. "I sleep now," she whispered to him as she slowly closed her tearful eyes. "I sleep until you rediscover your innocence." And so The Kingdom remains hidden while we witness The Boredom drag on, and drag on, and dragon. What great trickery has led us to believe that our innocence belongs to some future judgment?
