Spending the last two days traveling to New Mexico (where I'll be for the next 3 weeks or so) gave me good contemplation time... the kind of time that allows perspectives to integrate and transition from one state of being or form to another. Also time for downloads... like as one wheels across the desert miles, the crown of the skull opens and, and like a flower, receives light.
One piece of light received: Life these days is about becoming 'lion-hearted', as in 'Richard, the Lion-hearted'.... ie, Kingly, Courageous, Noble, Committed.... You can feel this reality only 'on the inner'.... in other words, while the less than lion-hearted makes choices involving and/or revolving around the world of the senses (taste, touch, sight, sound, smell)--- none of these senses are Noble, the way the Heart IS. For all the senses can do is give you sensations. And sensations only last a mere moment in time, then they are gone, to be mourned, or addictively chased. Neither leads to freedom.
But being 'Lion-hearted'---- that does lead to freedom. It breaks open the heart with such power that who you can then see you are is actually deathless, actually infinite, actually invulnerable, actually holy, actually endlessly loving. Knowing ourselves thusly--- as 'lion-hearted'--- even for a moment, produces spiritual ecstasy, for we have seen our true face at last.
Namaste,
David
