Mining Your Mind by Victoria McMahon
I came across one of my pocket size journals that I use for writing down thoughts when I am traveling to yoga retreats. The initial entry was dated in January 2014. I immediately felt the ping connecting my yoga community and the spirals community. Simultaneously, these worlds began to be about the subtle work of weaving threads of connection that are culminating into this now new moment of recognition.
There on the page I read, “Love is the willingness to see that which is real!” With so many events rising in the field on a daily basis, it can be beyond hard to decipher what is “real”. And even harder, to sustain and maintain oneself in direct link to that which is real (L.O.V.E.)
It has been feeling like walking through a mine field. Yes, our systems are being constantly challenged by events in our personal lives as well as in our global community. It seems like there is an “IED” (improvised explosive device) potentially looming with every step we take. And here is the reality of it ….our own minds are the mine field. The reality of separation we were born into is imbedded with IED’s that are waiting to explode.
Writing Observings give us access to “mine” our minds to neutralize the impact of explosive experiences arising in our system as well as assist us to carefully digging up and deactivate the patterns or memes that loop, grip or have us stuck in the muck!
As I continue to explore the deeper layers of my willingness to see that which is real, I am finding myself unable to trust most any of my thoughts at any given moment. Thankfully, the gift of having a Sherpa in the spirals recently offered Tantra’s words of support, “It ain’t necessarily so!” I can stop and question every thought that arises and deactivate those potential IED’s in the mind field.
And if I can do it, so can you!
Then our path will be cleared so we can write the Cravings to build the matrix of our mind that is in unity with what is real…creating the spiritual warrior mind that is only willing to see LOVE!
I am amused with how creation is bringing me in unity awareness as I close this blog. I wrote a craving some time back to bring words forward to complete this blog writing and I thought I would explore what it means to be a spiritual warrior, the qualities that one would express. And in actuality, I now am willing to seeing that which is real (L.O.V.E) is the work of a spiritual warrior.
With you in the field of unity….namaste??
