Day 23
Being in presence is an experience that is outside the mind. When the mind takes its rightful place, you are free to be in flow of your essence. There is no positioning or postulating. That is the false self doing mind work that is grounded in personal wounding and social conditioning. When that is healed, you begin to feel your way in each moment. Then you are on sacred ground.
Christopher: Good morning, Mother.
Mother: Good morning, my beloved son. How are you this sacred moment?
C: That is a beautiful way of putting it…’this sacred moment’.
M: One day you will experience how all moments are sacred, this one in particular.
C: Feels like that is getting back to being in the presence of presence in the present.
M: A little philosophical, don’t you feel?
C: Yeah. Not very heart-based. Trying to be fancy.
M: There is truth in what you say, but it is only real when you feel it. Do you feel the presence of presence in the present?
C: I don’t know. If I did, I guess I would know. Or maybe I wouldn’t. I am confused now.
M: That means you are not trying too hard to ‘figure’ it out. Being in presence is an experience that is outside the mind. When the mind takes its rightful place, you are free to be in flow of your essence. There is no positioning or postulating. That is the false self doing mind work that is grounded in personal wounding and social conditioning. When that is healed, you begin to feel your way in each moment. Then you are on sacred ground.
C: Not a lot of that in the city. I could feel my heart in the beginning and then as time goes on it is hard to maintain that being surrounded by the matrix of mind that is a city.
M: That is not easy when you are in the process of deconstructing the false self which is used to the mind matrix. You begin to ‘forget’ who you are.
C: Yeah, totally. Well, I didn’t forget as much as I could feel an energetic reaction. I am glad Kathleen is getting herself out of that.
M: As am I, Christopher. I wish everyone had the emotional consciousness to ‘get out’. And by that I don’t mean physically. I mean emotionally. That may require leaving physically at some point, but just to get out of the trap they find themselves in. A self imposed exile of the heart. I can feel those that are trying to help in a big city, but they are not helping themselves and therefore just adding to the paintrix.
C: Wow! That is a good one, Mother. The Paintrix. I mean, in terms of words. Not good in regards to the emotion of it.
M: I know what you meant. It is sad, but true. The Paintrix of Mind can only be healed from the inside of each individual heart and that is a sovereign choice. One can try and help others to feel and heal, but only when it is a choice made by the soul itself. You must heal your heart in an environment that is conducive to healing.
C: …and get back to Presence of Heart.
M: Yes.
C: Thank you for that Mother. I really want to feel more Presence of Heart. This weaves in perfectly with where I originally wanted to go.
M: I took you off course again? Hmmm…
C: Lol! Yeah. I am getting used to that. You asked me how I was and that reminded me of an exchange I had with a Tibetan shop keeper around how in this North American culture we ask that question without really feeling it. And then that took me to how that is a symptom of our lack of relationality, and then I felt my own lack in that.
M: Okay. So how does that weave in with what we started about?
C: I feel like with presence of heart comes relationality. When someone asks how I am, I feel like just telling them the truth and see what happens, rather than “fine thanks, and you?”. It is more relational. They may not care, but at least I am not continuing the cycle of blah, blah, blah.
M: Sounds like a good practice to me. A part of you may have a reaction to that, so I would negotiate with him.
C: Feels like Simon has a hard time being relational. I can feel him wanting to try and be relational but it feels forced and managed. When among people the perception management kicks in and I fall into usual phrases. This a place for me to lead and feel Simon.
M: Being in the presence of heart will help you to lead that. Ask yourself what you are feeling every so often to practice this. Just be aware of yourself around others and journal with Simon about anything that triggers him. The more that you can be relational, the more that others can receive your true heart and love. And that is no small thing, my dear Christopher and Simon. Others need it, desire it, and long for it. As do you.
C: Thank you, Mother. I am letting that in. Time to go be relational.
M: I will be with you my beloved son.
C: : )
My name is Christopher Tydeman and I’ve been embracing the SoulFullHeart Way Of Life since March, 2012. I am a SoulFullHeart facilitator-in-training, author on this blog, and I hosted the SoulFullHeart Experience Radio Show. I was invited by Jillian and Wayne Vriend, co-creators of SoulFullHeart, to begin my own 90 day outing. In the next 90 days, I will be vulnerably sharing my SoulFullHeart process publicly. It will include journaling from one or more of my parts, my daemon, the Divine Mother, or all of them in one big group love fest. You will meet Simon, who is my self-image part or prime monarch; Nathaniel, who is an aspect of my Daemon; Angela, who is my newly arising feminine part; and Peter, who is my magical child. I will not be sharing anything they do not want to share, or I may process with them until they feel comfortable. This is a healing crucible for me, but also a look into the inner world of this way of life called SoulFullHeart. Visit soulfullheart.com for more about the SoulFullHeart Way Of Life.
