On Emptiness

And to continue from the previous two posts, Skywalking to The Heart and Taking The Middle Path, I have to say that what I write does not come from a theory or any other external source. I share my experience. And what I encounter these days is a push to let go of any attachments. This fits into the concept of emptiness.

It does not mean you have to withdraw from the world around you. Rather, be fully and consciously present exactly where you are at the moment. Being focused on a step you are making right at this moment is the only way to stay up on the tightrope, and remembering where we are.

Now, imagine skywalking while thinking about a negative experience of yesterday's. How about worrying when and whether you are going to be at a point ahead that is still hidden in a fog? How about carrying a load? Are you still on that tightrope?

A day ago I had an experience after allowing a bit of doubt in. The outcome? I was falling all the way down. And as I was watching that emotional drop, I observed that our bodies have become much more united than before: The physical, mental, and spiritual Me followed. Yet, there was a part that remained in balance. The Light Body knows no other reality outside of Beauty, Harmony, and Balance. Thus, I was able to see clearly. And I saw choices: If I can choose to allow a slip, then I can choose to jump back. With intention comes the ability to do, and notorious, "If you think you can do it, you are right - if you think you cannot, you are right."

When you choose emptiness in the moment, you open endless possibilities to live this moment fully, to act upon your heart's song of joy, and to create a momentum for the next step, for from that momentum the step will be created. Do you see where your responsibility lies?
