THE REALITY OF CONTROL
Written by Sarah McIntyre
I have come to believe the concept of control is a given. It maybe worth our while to embrace that control is a function of reality. It is what must exist for us to build and create. It is meant to be what we know and experience. When we are led into the understanding of what we think is 'mastery' or 'awakening' we latch onto concepts and try and bring them into this 3 D world. I am kinda thinking it is all upside down our perspective on the application of concepts and spiritual theories and it actually needs to be turned ass up. The mechanism of living without agenda, with free will, choice and using intention are present for us to integrate spiritual truths within our human existence. What we tend to do is we get a state experience at a chanting workshop, watching a video, reading a book or a powerful dream and we try and take the awareness or state into our reality. We try to become this. That is like taking a floating cloud from the sky and trying to make it sit still on earth. It is a gravitational impossibility. It is madness. We cant play with the science of life and or the human dichotomy of our natural cycles and synergy. So no wonder we get stuck when we try these 'meta' concepts and apply them to living. We even think we are living them which is even crazier. We convince ourselves we are acting in a certain way and / or we behave in a practiced thinking it is authentic. Our consciousness can even mystify us into believing something is true and that is our reality.
Wow huh - what a paradigm shift to drop all ways we try and manipulate how we see ourselves and what we perceive is who we are and to practice NOTHING, really being still in what is and it not be some theory or way of being but that being what is the real and authentic YOU!
The opportunity for authenticity would then include control, stillness, relaxation, madness, and mastery all in one bundle. When we deceive ourselves or seek enlightened moments often life has a fabulous way of bringing us back to reality. That is when you enter the unexpected bang of life events hurling REALITY at you as a big wake up call - " ya of the radar, your off the planet get back here" is the crystal clear message we see in accidents, drama, confrontations, breakdowns.
Basically our human self is out of control and is seeking control and we get the wake up call and reminder to STOP.
That is often when we think, " okay now I will embrace trust and apply another idea to my life cause that is what I need to do now to get what I want."
That is not the opportunity. The mastery comes through awareness of reality and this material world. It also comes through identifying with our multi dimensional selves. It is all to be valued yet maybe we don't direct anything we master the command. Demanding things be a certain way and fighting natural flow will lead us nowhere. Yet developing the POWER OF COMMAND and the purity that sits inside of us and choosing to be the purest version of self, awakening this decency and gentleness within connects us to the wisdom that touches our hearts. This is the compelling goodness energy of the time; it is the leading force of humanity today. It is the hope we speak of, the authenticity, and the realness we will all touch that becomes the attractor of the new way to live our lives. That births simplicity, meaning and a joy to our day to day experiences.
Yet below our darkness and our control is where this lies. It is not interested in the game of life, it is not interested in strategy, and it is not interested in opportunity. It is opportunity, it is strategy, it is the game, it is love, it is life, it is whole, and it is all of it. Nothing exists beyond it that will make it whole. Nothing exists outside of self.
What is real is the vibration and the inter connection within. All realities exist as one whole inside of who we be. Therefore we die to trying to manage our reality or bring something into form. We take absolute pleasure in this material and physical world and cease to try and make it a better place or a better world. We are the better place and the better world. That place is the sanctuary inside of self, that is the space where the relaxation and stillness can be found.
The reality of life is a dichotomy and whilst we seek we will not find, we are looking in the wrong place. Expect control, expect darkness, expect the multifaceted nature of human's perspectives, opinions and difference. Expect all the management and apparent corruption, it is life, it is absolutely perfect. In between the movies of life that all run at the same time that we co create is the space of nothing, where there is NO control. That is where we practice the skill of command. That is where we practice love. That is where we practice being in nothing and not going to anything. That is where there is nothing to do.
Then as quickly as this is true we are bang back into life. We have been guided into a new movie scene in reality and in that we fully participate active and in flow. The clouds float in the sky, we act and use intention here on earth, we dance with one another, we bring our real self to our exchanges, we control and we step out of control. Rather than trying to take a meta concept and bring it into real world from we accept the worlds all co exist inside of us and we dance between them. For us to integrate both we become very rational and accepting that money and meaning as we may call them co exist and we can do/be both we all hold that capacity.
Yet the driver to become this is because you know and you believe in the truth, goodness and purity of self and one another. You love until it hurts because below that agenda or what is your way is a way that we believe and know to be true, that is NOT created by us but is created through who we become!
