I sat at my desk staring at my lucky bamboo plant. It whispers, "we are one."
I shake my head thinking to myself, "Either I am sleepy, I am asleep, or I am surely tripping off that Kombucha I guzzled down at lunch."
I pick up my pen and a life lesson from my Oracle Within begins
We do live life from the inside out. Inspiration is something which moves from within us. And we all want to be inspired, motivated, moved, and quickened in life. Accordingly, metaphysics, personal development, metaphysical philosophy, and true spirituality all teach us that everything in our reality right now came from "within" us. This confirms that my reality, your reality, "his" reality, "her" realityare woven into each other's varying versions of one true and authentic reality and this makes us all one.
Realizing this "oneness" and accepting this into our own personal consciousness allows us to co-exist in peace and harmony even as individuals. Resisting this truth about reality and struggling against it by attempting to manipulate others causes conflict, war, and turmoil.
We must seek to co-create our reality instead of trying to manipulate others. In order to let go of our manipulations we must let go of the ego. Furthermore in letting go, we must accept that we are all co-creators with this magnificent universe and that this universe is working through us to expand life. We exist with and in a powerful Creative Force, which is infinite intelligence and orchestrates all things with infinite organizing power in wonderful melodious synchronicities.
In sync with this melody of life, the varying life forms we see in nature and in each other is a result of the creativity of this Divine and powerful life-giving force in all of us. While this may sound more mystic than scientific, it is this invisible force which is the source of animation for all life we see and experience.
This power, this life-giving force is as real as the carbon dioxide I exhale as my lucky bamboo plant inhales it. It is oneness. It is holistic-holy. It is pure consciousness. It is the basis of all true spirituality. And even as our own rhythms of life change and transform from one state to another state, from one cycle to the next cycle, and one form to another form; it is this cosmic rhythm of onenessholinessholism held together by an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present, all-organized force of life which is the true reality. And we must know It. We must become fully aware of It as powerful co-creators.
Time cannot destroy this power for it is ever-present and defies time. It has no boundaries for it is always growing and become more. Now do we see through Its power just how powerful we are created to be? Through the awareness of this power, we having a seed of it as our own life-force should realize that as this power works through us and in us as "willing vessels", we are the vehicles for this powerful force in our reality. This means time cannot destroy us and we have no boundaries or limits in life.
With this loving, mystical power, are you moved to become more? Are you inspired and motivated? What do you choose to co-create in your reality?
Now, I put down my pen and ponder the questions. I look to my lucky bamboo plant again, very apologetically, "sorry friend, you were right," I whispered. I had been told that if we talk to our plants they will grow and remain lively. No one ever told me that plants would talk back and we would grow too.
You speak to what the major religions address: the power of ease and the letting go. My character, Augustus, in my book, travels the universe using Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, and Taoist philosophy. He even writes a book pertaining to the central force of the universe is to let go, or as he states, "To lighten up and let go." Great philosophy. Enjoyed the article.
