Truth is Everywhere
Dear Reader;
"Look you to history Look you to every memory of the waves of change and what you will find is when the forces of the waters rise all manner of life once hidden beneath is cast upon the shores never one never two but many So it is with human turbulence We may choose to walk one way or we may choose to walk another but never will we walk alone no matter how much we think we prefer it no matter how much we fear being exposed Some will find themselves falling in with the fighters to toss and turn and rage in response to all they have not wanted to see Some will fall with the doers the fixers and the savers busying themselves with tasks so as not to feel Some will fall with the hopeless and the afraid joining together in distractions of false revelry or consumption Some will try very hard not to see the rising waves at all to cling to the old as if there were something to hold onto even as they are washed into the sea And some will feel all of it the fear the desire to save to fight back but they will choose another way which is to rise.." ~ The New Earth
I used to think of truth as vertical. Mistruths, half truths and untruths layered on top, and once peeled back, giving way finally to the real truth, the absolute truth, the central Truth at last. I used to think it was necessary to call out, to oppose, to discard.
But this isn’t how it works at all.
Truth lives instead within a horizontal view, an experiential expansion into rising awareness. Instead of a hierarchy of insight, truth becomes the altered state of discovery we stumble upon when we dissolve inward. We do not deny anything, but rather awaken to the essential truth in everything. We become a deeper part of all existence and by melting into it, all measurements of separation or merit disappear.
Once we reveal a small corner of recognition, this is all it takes. We start to peel away our resistance to it and suddenly it is everywhere as we reshape our perceptions of being. No part of our world is left untouched. It turns out that nothing is devoid of truth, in fact, a true essence lives in some kind of expression within everything.
The state, the beingness of truth has always been and will always be. All of it, the messes and the horrors, the mysteries and confusions, the lies and the deceit. Suddenly, Truth is everywhere.
By our own dissolving, nothing can escape, as we become whole.
And dear reader, in case you are coming across this post without knowing me, this is exactly what I do when I offer a reading. I assist individuals to expand their perceptions, to allow what was once difficult to see, and to feel what they have not allowed themselves to feel. In this energetic experience they are awakened into the non-linear, the illogical, the unfamiliar. The mind will try to reason its way out, but ultimately the soul will make a choice, and quite possibly surprise us in the end. This is the path to freedom.
Our first Tuesday night call is coming up for the Kokoro Circle, our evolving community of truth lovers, every soul present having made a commitment to look a new, visceral awareness in the eye.
Remembering that our primary responsibility in these times is to our own state, if you are one of the ones who has chosen to rise, please consider joining us. You will be in very sweet, very truth-full company.
much love, Adi
