Making a connection with that part of ourselves that is already awake or enlightened costs nothing - it is freely given to each of us who claims it! How wonderful!
In fact, I believe that this part of ourself is pushing to make this connection within us more strongly than we are seeking to connect with it. This is because we are an expression of the One Reality and that reality is constantly awakening through all of its parts, in fact through the awakening of its parts the whole evolves and awakens and vise-versa!
Consider a flower, the force of Nature (of Love actually) is constantly moving the plant to bud and the buds to open. It actually takes no effort on the part of the plant or bud except to 'go with the flow'. The bud awakens into the flower as part of a natural unfoldment - thus we too are constantly evolving and awakening, often in spite of ourselves - I find this thought very heartening!
Our special privilege, being human, is that we can consciously participate, not only in our own awakening, but in the awakening of all beings.
Oh Light Bearer
Remember oh lover of light... When skies grow dark, every light shines brighter! YOU are a light in the darkness, shining like the Moon.
