Some Pitfalls And Pointers To Talking With Nature

Look again at the title of this article. Be aware that this is about talking with Nature, not simply talking to it. Most people talk to their cats and dogs, even chickens and parrots, maybe even goldfish. But very few people talk with them. For this to happen, you need to be open to them answering you . . . and most people are not! And even if you are open to an answer, it is unlikely that you will be listening.

Okay, so what is this all about? Essentially, Nature lives and expresses in and from the moment. We people, very, very rarely express in and from the moment. Nature has no choice about this, it cannot leave the conscious  moment. We have a lot of choices; we call it free will! Free will . . . that's a misnomer if ever I heard one! If you have free will, try being consciously in the moment for one minute. Okay . . . you failed. Almost certainly, you were thinking! To be consciously in the moment, you must be without thought. Why? You can think your way out of the moment, but you cannot think your way into it. Thoughts take you into the past, or the future, but thought cannot take you into the moment. Nature does not live and express in the past or future; it lives consciously in the eternal moment.

It is important to do this without any form of criticism, simply because self-criticism does not work either. And we areĀ very self critical. In ...
  THE GREATER FAMILY
We are very good at rallying around the family in any crisis, or at times of celebrating the many holidays and regular annual birthdays. Our biological family means a lot to us, warding off feelings of isolation and separation. In the way of a fire in the grate, family ties need to be constantly fuelled and maintained. It is family that teaches us the give and take of life . . . or at least, it...
Two completely different aspects of unconditional Love
Michael’s: One of the great errors of humanity today is our inability to recognise the difference between love and emotions. It is very rarely realised that love is not an emotion: Love is the Power of Creation. When we meet someone we love, our emotions rise to a peak as the result of the alchemy of our deeper feelings. We have long mistaken these emotions for love. Just as we are the passenge...
