Love
Love is all there is. Love is the source. Love is the sustenance. All you need is love, love, love. A mantra, pure and perfect.
Spending a day, repeating the word love over and over again can purify even the darkest karma, mood and deepest suffering.
Love is source and it is where all form returns. The state of love is and it is not an idea. No action is required of love or to be in love and yet love is also an active principle. Love is alive. Love is life. You are alive. You are life. You are love. Love and life are not distinguishable from each other. Love is outside the bounds of reason. Love is where the planetary consciousness is heading and what is being left behind--falling away as an O-ring falls away from a space shuttle that moves out of the atmosphere-is reason, thinking and thought as a way of being.
Thought is no longer of service to the species. Thought is, has become, largely misunderstood and largely dysfunctional. The major spiritual teaching of this time is to bring awareness to the thinking process and its overall uselessness in the larger scheme of being, its utter illusion making properties.
Human beings are in a phase of evolution where such a small part of the "thinking function" is utilized and where the "thinking function" is being co-opted by the primal aspects of the brain. Most--no all thinking for the great majority of humans goes to some aspect of ego satisfaction and to the service of survival. Thought is largely conditioned and largely in service to the condition of anxiety.
There is much more to say about this issue of thought, about a recognition of how much thinking inhibits ones awareness of the field of love and even brings a high degree of misery to the planet and to the human species, but the overall message of love is most important.
To recognize love, as your source and where you return to as the source of all life and intelligence and of life itself is most important. Too much thought can go into thought. Thought, whether or not it is recognized, is shifting and even dissolving. The flow of love is too great to be hindered by thinking functions. Thought, as it now exists, is as useless as wisdom teeth or the appendix. Love, as source, eviscerates thought completely. Thought burns up in the white light of love. This infusion of love is already happening. Thought is the caterpillar in its final stages of dysfunction and love is the butterfly about to emerge from the cacoon. As a practice, to say "love, love, love," as a mantra, is to enter the flow of what is happening. Surrender to love, invite love, come home ot love and you enter the flow. Notice how it feels, in your cells, to say "love, love, love." See the smile lift to your lips. Feel the light-ness. Notice the relaxation of tension. Love is home. Love is bliss. Love is where you are going without moving or taking a step. All you need is love, all you are is love. There's no more to be said.
