You

This is a bit of poetry by one of my favorite writer-poets who has since died. The words can be complicated to comprehend even if English is your first language and you like poetry. If you have trouble understanding it, let me know, and I'll say more.

Because you're not what I would have you be
I blind myself to who, in truth, you are.
Seeking mirage where desert blooms, I mar
Your you. Aaah, I would like to see
Past all delusions to reality:
Then I would see God's image in your face.
 
The Ordering of Love: The New and Collected Poems of Madeleine L'Engle, 2005.

The Locked Door

Dearest Classmates & Students, the other day I was knocking on the door of someone who was supposed to be home. The doorbell wasn't working. There was lots of snow and I was standing in it, since the walk was not shoveled. I knocked and knocked. After awhile, I could feel impatience arising within me. I knocked harder. No answer. I called out. No answer. Now, there was a very very ill person inside (my sister-in-law) with her seventeen year old daughter and autistic son, so I was concerned. My imagination was telling me stories about what might be happening inside. I could feel anger arising when I thought the daughter (my niece) just wasn't answering the door. I called her cell phone. No answer. More anger arose. Finally, I left.

Angelic Prayer For You

Dearest One, May you receive the abundant blessings of the angels each time you cross the threshold into Your Open Classroom. May this sacred space shelter and give you comfort. May you feel the burdens of the ego melting away as you surrender to the higher teachings of the angels. May you rest in the peace that is here, the peace the world cannot give.

May you be willing to remove the masks that separate you from others, God, and yourself. May you receive the understanding and acceptance that fill this room. May your one bright eye be opened so the weariness of seeing with two eyes dissolves in the clear light of Truth. May your true vision refine and deepen. May you fall into the love in your heart and let it raise you higher.

May you always know you are welcome here where you are held in the love and power and tenderness of the angels. If God is the sun, then angels are the sunlight that warms and brightens and enlightens your way.

Angel Message 14 Seeing

Dearest One, Our last message was about seeing with the Ajna chakra: heart connected to divine intelligence. This is not the way the world sees. The world sees through eyes of duality. This is not due to the eyes, which perform their task of seeing quite well, but to the way the mind goes outward and interprets what it sees. The ego mind can see only past and future. It cannot see the now. The ego by definition is that which can see past and future, which is duality, but never the present moment.

When you see with the 3rd eye, the Ajna chakra, then you see with the One eye -- the One I. Contemplate this. Think about how you see. Be aware of your seeing. Observe. Watch. Witness. Your observation may lead you to new ways of seeing.  Thank you, Your Own Guardian angel

Guardian Angel Message 13, Ajna Chakra

Dearest One, You are one, not two. You are one manifesting as many. Your true beauty cannot be seen with physical eyes. What your eyes see depends upon how you feel. How you feel depends upon what you think. Even someone surrounded by the greatest beauty cannot enjoy it when their thoughts are dark and depressed. When you see only with physical eyes, you see only the past and future, because you are looking through eyes of duality.

Poem

SWEET DARKNESS
...You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.
Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.
Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.
- David Whyte

Guardian Angel Message #12 Your Name

Dearest One, Perhaps by being addressed by your true name--one of your true names--over and over--perhaps you will begin to know who you really are; not two, but one, not many, but one--One manifesting as many.

This is beautiful if you happen to look...

Angel Message #11, Nature

Dear One, I address you as one because we are all one. Just as the flower is not separate from the earth, as the light is not separate from the sun, as the waterfall is not separate from gravity, so are you not separate from the One. 

Angel Message #10 Light

Dearest One of Light and Beauty, Let your spiritual senses open so your Guardian angel message may be received into your heart. Let the palms of your hands come together like a prayer, and now let them open like a flower receiving the light of the sun. Bring your hands to your heart. Breathe the light deep into your heart.

Guardian Angel Message #9 Lovely Names

 

Dearest One, Lovely Being of Light, Indwelling in the Heart, Radiance of the Moon and Stars, Sweet Sound of the Bees, Scent of the Flowers, Whisper of the Wind through the Sheltering Trees.

Angel Message #8 More

Dearest One, Life is not linear. This means that life is not meant to be an accumulation of more. The purpose of life is not to get 'more' but to let go of 'more.' This means letting go of the idea that more of anything in this world will soothe your heart forever. You will only be soothed deeper into sleep. The more you are focused upon 'more' the more deeply asleep you are. 'More' refers to possessions of all kinds, so long as they belong to and are of this world.
