Years of Meditation ..summed up in 5 Minutes of Writing.









Sisters have you ever done something over and over through the years, practicing and honing a skill or a hobby something. then only to realize that after years of mastering or so the Ego says, we find when asked about it we can sum it all up in a 5 minute conversation.

" It's all relative" a lesson I have come to understand clearer and clearer with each passing event. Time is such a peculiar energy, we don't really know it's full scape of meaning yet we whirl it around as if we have MASTERED it somehow? Quite ironic. Is this something we use to our advantage or our illusion of having control? Or is it a part of the greater whole, the natural order and it merely simplifies the playing field so we may at least have a shot at grabbing a piece of the puzzle ?

Seventeen years of meditation, and using it daily right, wrong, up, down, whatever it took to just spend five minutes of quieting the mind. In time of matter, that's a lot of five minutes. The cosmos, perhaps sees it differently in ways our view just unable to grasp until it's TIME>> so many plays on the word, so many values of dimension is it all Relative??

So here is the best explanation on the theory of RELATIVITY in this sister's experience. " Grab a hot pan and a second can seem like an hour, Grab a hot woman and a hour can seem like a second".

There are about five things that cover this multiple years of wisdom, worth all of two cents on a good day, that one will probably finishing reading within the five minute conversation. Is it all relative?

1. No two meditations are the same. Different strokes for different folks but all us have the power with in us. Mindfulness is the point of the exercise how one gets there are many paths, breath, visual, guided, affirmation, mantra, all true paths. The point is to be in the present moment, without judgement and observer of the time passage.

2. Three essential values:
    Consistency, Interest, and Openness...

Stubborn and consistency fit very well together here use them as one word. Call it ones "never zero" approach. No matter what, practice everyday, even if for five minutes or minute if that is what is available. DO IT period.
Doesn't matter what is happening, bored, tired, angry, sick, BUSY, depressed. Just sit. This is the way ones brain gets wired into meditation it is a consistent connection.

Keep the energy alive. Make it a passion, a learning, value, but keep it going it will pay off.

3. Things will CHANGE:

Everything is temporary including your feelings and the state of matters as they appear. There it is as they appear in that MOMENT OF TIME, hold on now, it will slip to a new perspective very shortly, everything is in constant change, one's DNA changes every thirty seconds imagine every thirty seconds, one is changed completely by natural order and of course one's actions and mindset. Point of value, the mind is becoming FLEXIBLE> All changes are subject to choice by one person and so what the changes are is dependent on the individual. IT will change.

4. Buddha Wave

In the beginning it is stated that even five minutes is good, and it is however, like everything it has to continue to grow and strengthen. So it only makes sense to find the meditations that challenges one's own journey at any given time. The stronger the quieting of the mind is the better the results of one's life journey.
Focus on the breath. the value of it is underestimated by far, it is the one thing that is consistent in sustaining one's life-force as long as it is moving so are we. This is mindfulness, the body and mind states as one observes, and delves into making the experience grow and mature. Time is also used in the concept of expanding and contracting and in the end is that not what life really is. Contracting when things come together, and expanding as things fall apart. One's heart will follow the mind, and the mind will follow the body, so the spirit, soul, essence is free to guide.

5.I am not my MIND>

The one thing learned by this sister is that I am not my thoughts, and my thoughts are not me, and detachment is possible for whatever is going on inside or out I am free.  When one realizes that one is not their feelings or thoughts, is just another temporary consciousness inside going on. It will come, play, and stay awhile but it will pass, the attachment is what makes the difference. If there is no attachment to the situation or the event, then it will pass without harm. It is a choice however, at that moment to attach or not.

Years in meditation and it comes down to five minutes of conversation, and no matter what it focusing and openness allow one to make one's choices of a choice based on to act upon,  to make use of, or simply to let go of. This is true freedom, this is the essence of relativity. It is all relative in the movement and motion of time.

Love Light and Rise each day sweet sisters.
