Change - Amoda Maa

The world is breaking, down or open, or both.  We stand at a
major bifurcation point, like never before seen in our human
story.  It is an inner and outer breaking point, a point of 
maximum stress.  A point when we the "system" (whichever
system we're talking about, it could be a physical thing like
a piece of metal or a psychological thing like the ego-mind
or a biological thing like a cellular organism or a collective
thing like a species) is under severe pressure to evolve.

But this evolution is not guaranteed.  The system could 
totally break down and devolve.  It could collapse into
insanity or chaos.  It could fall into unconsciousness, fear
and hysteria.  It could only barely survive.  Or it could start
the process of breakdown and at the critical point break through
to a new level.

Each of us is called to listen from a deeper place to what is
demanded by the reflection of the outer world.  Do we 
continue to operate from a divided state, a state of fear and
panic and noisy narratives that lock us into armored perspectives
and narrow pedestals?  Or do we open so wide that we can hold
the totality of the mess, the loss, the grief, the horror and the
agony in that openness, and then remain as this openness come
what may?  Can we truly take up the invitation for an inner
revolution of consciousness?

Today, a well of sorrow for the insanity that floods humanity
and keeps on coming.  Today, a whisper of light on the horizon
of darkness as the potential for transformation and evolution
beckons...

The Holy Darkness...

 The collective shadow has come to roost
and everything
is
collapsing

The tides and ripples of entropy will continue
until all is returned to Source again ~

the Primordial State:
Pure Life Energy...

Entropy is not necessarily a "bad" thing.
It is the way of existence.
It is a "telescoping" of everything that is,
back to its original Source/State;
a reclaiming of all that has manifested in form
into its natural state;
the conceptual structures, the constructs,
so that only
the Eternal Essence
remains...

Do not be alarmed by the seeming destruction
of what you have believed to be real.
All must be released, shed - like dross.
In this there is a sense of chaos, destruction, loss, and death;
the crucible effect;
a state of alchemy,
the refinement of all things in existence
to their Original Nature.

Nothing is "lost" in the process.

Bring your awareness to the place of Stillness within.
Don't try to create order in the chaos.
"Order" is found in the Stillness,
in returning to deep Stillness of Being. 

The healing of mankind
is in the recognition of our Eternal Essence -
our Infinite Beingness,
Our Divine Heart...

Entropy is the crucible of that healing...

It is an invitation
to expand our view of reality,
embrace the fullness of reality as it is,
and return to the awareness of
our Eternal Source...

Personal Note: Even with this "knowing"
that was "given" to me so many years ago, how can I not be
emotionally touched by the current mass casualties of ignorance
and violence - the suffering and death and political upheaval
in my own country - that has led us to this Holy Darkness where
our personal and collective illusions and delusions are collapsing -
gratefully. Someone I listened to recently called it the
Global Dark Night of the Soul...

"Knowing" a deeper truth, however, does not mean one doesn't feel the
impact of what is happening, or deny its reality.
