| Living in harmony with the circle of life |
We continue this month on our path of exploring the qualities to cultivate inner peace. Over the last
few months we have contemplated the qualities of Courage, Patience and Wisdom. This month we
look at the quality of Certainty. (note: previous newsletters can be found on our website under
articles)
During these times it seems there is very little to be certain of. People are losing their jobs, their
homes; families are splitting and living apart in order to survive financially. These challenges are
evoking a state of fear. When we are in fear, we are in contraction. When we are in contraction it
closes us off to any Divine Wisdom and Knowing. Certainty is our deepest knowing.
So, what is the one thing you are certain of? When I move out of my head and into my heart the one
thing I know is Love. When I slow down, breathe deep, or spend time in nature I become aware of
the Presence that is all That Is, which is Love. We come to know this Love through stillness,
releasing fear, going within, and listening.
This Love that is being spoken of is not the worldly love, though, it does take on many forms of
expression. This love, loves; regardless of circumstances and regardless of what the personality
thinks about the situation. It is a relentless, ever present, all pervading Love. It is the essence of
every atom, of every atom, of every atom..... This is your true essence, your Divine Nature.
When all else falls away we are left with Love. Might this be what is being asked of us during these
times, perhaps the reason for these times - a return to Love? To embody this love; to live this love?
This goes beyond thinking, grand ideals, having faith or even belief to certainty. It takes us deeper
into becoming aware of this Divine Truth within and living it in every moment.
May we have the courage to embrace change, the patience to allow all that is, the wisdom to see
beyond the surface, and know only Love.
