The Power of Being

More often than not the state of Being requires that we stop doing. While doing is an action, being is a natural state. Sometimes returning to our natural state of being requires that we release the veils of doing, specifically those we have come to think of as our Self, our condition, or our collective reality. Doing is a part of the illusion that we are not already perfect, and not already complete in who we are.

In shedding these veils it will become more difficult for outside sources to continue to suggest what we are to us. So sometimes to just BE we have to untie the knots of bondage that are our thoughts and attachments.

If you find yourself concerned about the current state of the world, whether the rising gas and food prices, the terrible presidential candidates, the trouble of living in scarcity in a world that is so inherently abundant or what is being fed to us as an inevitable Third World War, just take a moment to STOP.

Stop listening and reading the words that make you afraid,
Stop repeating the words that keep you afraid,
Stop adapting to your fears and creating a reality,
Stop spreading you fear and empowering a movement,
Stop looking for reasons on why WE are separate and begin to focus on the incredible humanity that Unites every single one of us.

Stay in Honesty
Stay in Kindness
Stay in Love
Stay Clear.

This is the power of NO action.
This is the power of Being.

The undoing of these ideas expressly means we engage in Doing, or rather stopping- which is an emphatic expression of non-action. When you keep a lightness in your non-action, it will eventually become easier not act out because of external sources. It's like holding your breath at the top or bottom of an inhale or exhale. At first it feels forced but eventually we let go of choking the breath at the top of the inhale or forcing the depletion of the exhale and struggling to be there. We let go of striving to not act, not attach, not fear, we release the judgement of how poorly or wonderfully we acted in a trying situation and we return to compassion and patience that we already are. We remember the lightness that we already are.
