Bike Riding

Yesterday I went for a bike ride. Another beautiful bike path was just completed in the community I live in here in Florida. Not only is the trail wonderful but it is completely flat…..something I have come to cherish. :-) .

As I was riding, I started to get very still inside….bringing the attention of my awareness back to the Still Point…away from thoughts of and about the world ….to this inner Space…. where True Presence….as divine Love, Understanding and Experience was already happening as me…as my specific and distinct awareness and experience. I rode quietly, becoming more absorbed in this gentle Place within my consciousness and yet wholly aware of everything of the trail that surrounded me.

And then…once again….as a witness to all this sweet, pure Presence knows, experiences and is….my own conscious awareness and everything within it….was permeated and bathed with this Light.

I was the Larger Self,  and absolutely every aspect of my Field of Consciousness, the trees, birds, air, breeze, sun, sounds, bike, movement, body, people…..were an expression, of this same Self. Every single Thing…. was this One Life…..being, looking at and knowing ItSelf…. as me, through me and with me. It was like being a Cell of conscious awareness in and as the one Infinite Universal Self. No separation….just One….loving, serving and being its Self. Such gratitude and joy were washing over me and through me.

It is so true…..when the attention of our awareness is with and on Presence… on the one Life expressing Herself as Us, on the Still Point…this inner Place where She is already Happening, Being Herself as us…..our whole field of conscious awareness….is filled with Light and a living experience of Love and Happiness…..born of a true sense of deep, profound and intimate connection with all aspects of our current experience is ours.

“Coming to” the Still Point

The Still Point……is where pure, undivided God Awareness… is already BEING – is already HAPPENING as…. the specific and distinct awareness you are aware with and as.

It is the Place in ones consciousness where the human sense of mind, the personal and false sense of self, life and experience comes to.... with its focus of attention and love ….that it may lay down and release…. all it thinks it knows….. all its personal awareness, thinking, judging, analyzing, fretting, planning…..to become still and quiet……attentive and expectant.

Let us gather together – all fragments of our scattered energy, our rambling attention – and bring it – as one focus – to this Still Point…this pure, pristine, undivided, Spiritual Light within our awareness -
and with rapt….yet  still, quiet, loving, wordless attention…..look at this Light, listen to the all encompassing Sound of It's Silence…. breath into It…..or with It….or inside of It.....keeping the attention of our awareness and heart completely present, open and receptive....

and through our undivided attention to It, and our Love and Interest for Her that is in the midst of this  Light and Silence…. the Truth of our Spiritual Life, Identity, Experience and  World…will reveal ItSelf…. impart ItSelf….. to… and as…. and through…. our very “own” conscious awareness and experience.

Let Her…that is within the Still Point….show you your Self as you are Seen.

Experience your Self …. your Identity, Body, and World…through Her Eyes and with Her Heart.

And then, as a natural extension of this gift of TRUE Self-Awareness and the Self-Love that this blossoms as….we will Know and Experience ALL included within our specific field of consciousness with the same Vision, Love and Understanding. This brings Joy to ‘all’ awakening minds.

The Name……The Still Point

Hi and welcome to my blog…..The Still Point. I would like to share  with you where the name for this site came from and what it means to me.
Some time ago, as I was preparing to leave my house for a two month pet-house sitting job, I found that I was feeling some anxiety around being away from my own home for so long. Though I loved the house where I was going…it’s quiet atmosphere, it’s beauty and close proximity to the beach, as well as the pets that I would be caring for….still…I noticed a low grade anxiety rumbling around in the background of my heart. I prayed about this and the answer that flowed into my consciousness from Source….my Divine Mother….was this…………

“YOU CAN NEVER BE SEPARATED FROM YOUR HOME…BECAUSE…. ME – BEING YOU – IS YOUR HOME.’”

Oh…my heart melted and with it all the anxiety that was trying to grab my attention. The words…ME – BEING YOU – IS YOUR HOME….completely filled my awareness and became the focal point of almost all my prayer time….especially the three words….ME BEING YOU.

I have spent (and still do)  many hours in the Silence asking for deeper Revelation of what this beautiful Truth really means, opening my awareness to feel, know, and experience this Revealing…. more intimately and fully.

During one of these periods of silent asking, listening, opening….I was shown….visually and experientially….a line within my inner awareness with a middle point of pure, brilliant Light…. and She said to me……

”when your attention and thinking goes to the left…you are in the past….and when your attention and thinking goes to the right….you are in the future. The only real Place is in the Still Point in the Middle. This is the Eternal Now, the Holy Instant, the Now Moment, the Still Point. Nothing that you are aware of in and as your entire field of awareness….whether you look and think to the left or to the right or forward or backwards….nothing AT ALL is real….. except this Still Point.
ME – BEING – YOU…. is this one perfect, pure Consciousness…. Being aware of ItSelf…as and through… your specific point of conscious awareness. The fullness and completeness, the allness and onliness of the Still Point within and happening as…. your Consciousness….is the only Reality happening….the only Life, the only Identity, the only Existence that is Being…. in and as the eternal and forever and only…Now.”

And so the Still Point….which is an actual living and infinite Presence, Vision, Awareness, Place, Activity and Dimension of Identity and Existence within my very awareness (and yours ) has become a very interesting, captivating and cherished focal Point for the attention of my awareness…. to explore and abide in… as well as serving as a solid Place to return to when my thoughts go wandering about into the fantasy world of the conceptual mind.

When I was setting this blog up…I was and am thrilled about the picture of this Radiant bursting Light…it is so symbolic of  the inner picture given to me in my consciousness ….. with the Still Point….. this Breathing, Vibrant, Embracing, all inclusive Light,  ….Being the one true  Reality….”sitting” as perfect Peace..”in” and as the middle of our Consciousness…..utter Stillness....like a Doorway, a Call, an everpresent Invitation.
