Heart Catalysts and Openings

05.25.09

I hold you close to me

I release you to be so free

Because I am in you

and you are in me…


Kalyanamitra,


I celebrate all the ways and infinite possibilities

that are part of your being, part of your Homecoming


I honor the vividness, boldness and brightness of being

that is your Vision, a powerful, lively and noble way of

seeing deeply, living fully and honestly with Life.


We are here, both breathing, and
intentionally creating a praktis where

each moment, each act in this historical-material dimension

is aligned to cultivating conditions and connection that reflect the Ultimate, Awakened, Eternal part of ourselves.


May our communications
continue in the most beneficial of ways

so that there is wellness, joy, flow and freedom

…and nothing to hold one another back from the possibilities of the new world we each aspire to realize.


And on this path,

we come to know the Truth

of the material world

how it binds us

how it blinds and

confuses us

seduces us

into complacency

fear and limitation.

Likewise, we recognize

how the material world also

creates a fertile ground

for us to know of its

temporality

its impermanence

its conditionality

…and in this knowing

we turn our gaze

and begin the walk

towards our collective

soul self determination
the walk that reunites

us with our own Infinence.


Dear Heart Friend

Whatever illumines your path

I will consider as my Friend


Heart Friend

Wishing you all the

Bright, Joyful

Happinesses of your Heart


Peace peace peace


Metta metta metta


Loving kindness prayers and protection…


Safe travels, Dearest Friend


See you again and again and again…

Thank you for all the moments in between…

Let your heart speak with another’s heart.

Yogi tea quote praktis!

Am feeling through and sitting with my relationship to Heart Friend. Am I taking responsibility for developing and cultivating our relationship/friendship? Am I allowing her to “do” all the work? Emotional work? Inner work? Connecting and balancing ourselves from the inside?

A few days ago, my mind said it wanted to say this, speak this, solve this, attend to this. But at the moment I “had” to speak, I did not feel like that feeling needed to be expressed anymore.

Is this me letting my heart speak to another? Or me judging without me thinking I am judging? Is it my ego playing tricks on me? Is it my being self-righteous?

Let your heart speak to another’s heart.

Am I allowing my heart’s emotions to speak? Or is my heart in fact the stillness and fullness that Is?

Heart chakra? Throat chakra? Connection.

Receive, embrace, praktis, offer, transform…

The heart tightens,

the mind separates…

disarmed by compassion

the mind stills

the heart expands

and reaches across

with a smile.

Letting to,

listening,

hopefully with some depth

looking,

hopefully with kind eyes

feeling,

feeling,

feeling

my truth within.

Vissudha chakra

are you there?

Heart listens

while the

mind spins.

Say it!

C’mon, say it!

But nothing of this moment

within myself seems to

feel a need to say that which

I was feeling.

I was feeling something, before.

Am I still feeling it now?

Maybe?

Yes, somewhat.

But, at this moment, what did I feel like communicating?

Something of the past?

A moment of what happened before?

Because I felt like this, and this, and this…

And I want to tell you because ______???

Because???

At the moment, this didn’t feel right.

What is fear I was welcoming actually?

Or was it my Truth?

.

I am meeting you again,

springtime emerge(n)see Heart

and Heart Friend

And as I’ve taken refuge in my Friend

the Breath, so too, do I take refuge in

my Heart, in the Heart of the Universe

in the Heart of Another…

The Heart that Transforms and Heals All

moment to moment rising,

moment to moment beating,

The Heart that Transforms and Heals

The mud and the lotus…

Falling and rising…

gently…

And when I fall,

let me fall,

like a leaf,

without regret…

The rising and the falling

of each breath

the rising and the falling of each moment

knowing the rising and the falling is simply

the moment, and I am the One who receives it…

Knowing the rising and the falling

knowing the emotions as they arrive

knowing the mind, the separation

the return

Soft belly praktis…

Mindfulness…

Disarmed by compassion…

The Refuge of Breath

The Refuge of Heart

Receiving All

Transforming and Healing All

…until the Lotus blooms

…until I reach Enlivenment

Heart stills,

feelings shift

the Heart remains watching and taking it all in…

Heart embraces all the possibilities the mind and the emotions create

Heart stills

and in the stillness

begins to know itself more…

even just this act of settling into stillness

and trusting the gift and ground of being that is there

trusting that

and trusting the Heart knowing-being quality to “go there”

Where are we going Heart Friend?

What is your present moment?

What is your path?

Where does it lead?

Am I a part of it?

What is next?

Questions, questions, questions???

Grasping?

Leaning into the discomfort?

Exploring the edges of my being?

Clarity in communication…

Throat chakra, heart chakra

mind of love, bodhicitta

What is the praktis of being

at the “intersection” of these

ways of knowing?

What is my Truth?

My Friend & Teacher

In this Lifetime..

What happens when my Heart opens a little bit more…

just a tiny bit more than what it was use to…

release just a bit more than usual…

What happens when my Heart wakes up a bit

realizing that a dear Friend is for cherishing, not for keeping and possessing.

What happens when my Heart begins to give more than it wants to receive…

What happens when my Heart becomes a center of energy that extends with gentleness, out of effort, and then at times, out of simply Being…

As if I am praying…as if I am not praying…

What happens when the Heart Friend becomes One’s Beloved in this lifetime, not because there is a promise or vow for reciprocity, commitment and a declaration of being in arelationship…

What happens when I choose someone to be the ONE to whom I will offer the fruits of praktis, heart energies and heart knowings in the best of ways — what happens when I choose my Heart Friend to be the ONE for whom these offerings are made.

What happens when Loving arises with the intention to praktis the paramita of Giving?

What does loving-giving like loving-kindness or selfless loving look like?

Kalyanamitra,

I celebrate all the ways and infinite possibilities

that are part of your being to coming Home…

I celebrate the vividness, boldness and brightness of being

that is your Vision, that is your way of Seeing deeply and clearly into Life.

I am here, breathing with you and intentionally creating a praktis where

each moment, each act in the historical, is hoping to connect to the ultimate. When I have sat here in front of you, I send you metta, I send you an inner smile and my mind and my heart intends to wish you well. I hope that our communication may continue in the most beneficial of ways so that there is flow and freedom, and nothing to hold you back from the possibilities of the new world you aspire to see.

The material world does bind us

does blind us

and the material world also

creates a limit

for us to know of its

temporality

and ours…

This limitation points

to the completeness

to the fullness

to the ultimate nature

that resides already, within

the mud and the lotus

inter-be

Heart friend

Whatever illumines your path I will consider as my Friend

Heart friend

May you find the happiness that you seek

Heart friend

Thank you for teaching me that

Compassion has no limit

Kindness has no enemy

Heart friend

May the day be filled with light and the nights warm and comforting…

Peace peace

Santi,

Jnaseh
