A Guest Post By Jyothi, THE PRESENCE

Here is an entry from a blog of an Indian woman now living in Australia.  I thought it was interesting and similar to a message that I might write, but of course said in a different way.  I will only add that if I post a guest post entry, I have the permission of the author before doing so and am not necessarily in complete agreement with all they say.  I am of the opinion that people all have their own world view and opinions and if one is not in 100 % agreement with me, this is no reason to dismiss their messages.  If a person says 10 things and I can only take even 3 or 4 to heart, then it is to my benefit to be open to them and their opinions and accept whatever gifts that I am open enough to accept.  For too many talk of being open minded and enlightened, yet if one disagrees with what they say, then the ego barriers go up and form many hinderences to the human heart.  I often feel the heart of the person that I am communing with and all these points for debate and conflict tend to dissolve.  A little tolerance goes a long way and one often finds endearing qualities that one would have missed while caught in the defense of one's own ego.

So, SJ, now you have another forum to share your heartful messages.

There is NOTHING to be TAUGHT...

There is no teaching...
There is nothing to be taught...
No ONE teaches any-ONE...
(Each)-ONE is CONSCIOUSNESS...
And (Each)-ONE is LISTENING to ONESELF as CONSCIOUSNESS
while reading/listening to what others bring forth
of The CONSCIOUSNESS...
Words are not the truth...
Words POINT TO TRUTH...
Listen to the silence between the words...
thus bringing ONE's PRESENCE on...
Everything we hear/read that we acknowledge is a REMEMBRANCE...
Everything we hear/read that we do not acknowledge is still in forgetfulness,
Or that ONE feels not served by it in the moment...
We are students/observers/reviewers to OURSELVES...
Thus MASTERING OURSELVES...
We bring RE-MIND-ERS to others
In SERVICE TO 'SELF' that we are in-The-MASTERING...
And so it is,
I AM ~~~C..O..N..S..C..I..O..U..S..N..E..S..S~~~

Excellent post very truthful. Your home town looks beautiful Mike. I was in my backyard yesterday wondering if there is any place on earth which is not absolutely beautiful.

In Lak' ech brother, only beauty exists...

Hello Chris:

Yes, SJ was spot on...I'm sure she will be happy to read your comment.

Your home town has a great beauty also... Like the old saying, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

Take care brother Chris,
Mike

Hi Mike, I love guest posts because they add something more to our own blogs. You know: "Wherever two or more are gathered, there I am." We need not speak the same languages, or with the same words, but Love is Love, and Love is everywhere, as your guest points out so well. Thanks for sharing this.

Hello Pam:

Yes, it's nice to have many different expressions of the same thing, Love.

Share the wealth.

Take care,
Mike
