The Ache For Intimacy: Dialogues With Divine Father Day Six

Wayne's Mandala

W: Hello Divine Father.

DF: Hello Wayne. Where would you like to go today?

W: I feel I’d like to talk about intimacy. Yesterday with you was so intimate, and I’m still letting that in. The heart space I live in every day with Jillian and Christopher is more intimate than I’ve ever known, being without most of the distractions from intimacy that so many people’s lifestyle has. And intimacy comes up for me as I’m digesting some recent contact these past couple days from people within the intense group in which Jillian and I met and were a part of 7 years ago.

DF: Let’s talk about intimacy then, and see if we can feel it as we talk about it. What comes for me Wayne, as I open my heart again to you and our dialogue, if you don’t me saying is that what you are really wanting is to feel intimate on some level, and maybe trying to get there by talking mentally about it.

W: That feels true Father, and no, I don’t mind you saying.

DF: Can you feel then the level that you are seeking intimacy, cuz, as you say, you live in it with Jillian and Christopher, and as I know, your parts as well.

W: I feel I still hunger for more intimacy with a growing circle of people who also want and value intimacy. This off-grid lifestyle we’ve chosen is the most off-grid in it’s sense of heart and intimacy. I don’t know of any other group or couple who lives in what we live in.

DF: So more numbers would make it more bearable then?

W: Truth is Father, I think I do think that way a lot of the time and I’m not sure it’s true. I mean, would more intimacy fill this longing I still seem to be carrying? What if more intimacy with more people ended up being a whole lot more difficult on some level?

DF: It’s one of those things again Wayne, that we can’t know till we do. Can you let this longing simply speak it’s words and truth right now? Can you find it’s voice?

W: Thank you Father, I feel you feeling me. I’ll try to feel into this longing and it’s voice right now, as you say.

It says: I want to know and be known. I want the freedom of not hiding my real self, and the joy of not having to live without knowing others real selves. I want my pains to be soothed by knowing and feeling the real pains of others. I want to really know and feel my joy by being around others embracing and living in their joy. I want to be around people who admit the roles they’ve become captive to, heal what’s underneath that role, and let more of them out to truly play.

DF: Hey, great access, Wayne. I admire your willingness to just feel and write.

W: Thank you.

DF: That’s you being intimate with you. Intimacy must start there.

W: Where does it go from there, or where does it need to go?

DF: Let’s put the question this way: Where does the intimacy want to go?

W: Good call.

DF: I’ll say. Everything the voice of your longing said was an ‘I want.’ A good healed and working wanter is what’s needed here, and that you have in spades Wayne.

W: So where does intimacy want to go?

DF: See what I mean, Mr. Impatient Wanter?

Where the intimacy wants to go is of course into more. Intimacy, though it fulfills so deeply is never fully satisfied. It always wants more.

W: Kind of like really good sex, and you think you’re good for a week.

DF: Exactly, 48 hours later and whose all up in a dither? This is about the willingness to live in and bear desire, appetite, wanting. It’s what really being alive is about. Wayne, most folks want a spirituality that will moderate their desire nature, keep it in bounds because this aspect of being fully alive is what takes the balls. Anyone can fuck. But few can feel all that’s to be surrendered to in fucking. Intimacy of heart and soul is no different than body talk. There’s one night stands, friends with benefits and then there’s true lovers. True lovers surrender to the vulnerability of their inflamed desire and wanter that calls them to bear love, to take it to the next level. And what makes it so hot is the risk that both take to keep it alive.

W: This is so true. How many people father have been okay with living without love, real love on all these levels? I want that with more people. I’ll keep the sex between Jillian and I, but the raw, heart open in-to-me-see, I want more of that with more people.

DF: There’s your wanter talking out loud again, Wayne. I love it. And I thank you for being so free to say it. The words of your mouth and the desire of your heart is what is manifesting. Intimacy is begotten by desire that is owned inwardly and spoken outwardly. You’ve got yourself a heart-on!

W: J , Pardon me…

DF: No, don’t hide this one. Be proud of it. Let it out in fact for the world to see.

W: I mean really, what about the pearls before swine thing, Father?

DF: Okay, let’s go there as well. Intimacy is a two way street. Someone has to cross the space and ask for it in some way, shape or form, or it never happens. That involves your heart on your sleeve.

W: I’m reminded of the words:

I can’t know you unless you reveal yourself to me.

You won’t reveal yourself to me unless you trust me.

You can’t trust me unless you know me.

       You won’t know me unless I reveal myself to you.

I get that Father, it must begin with me, which is really cool, because I can act on what I want.

DF: Totally! And now is where the pearls before swine comes in. When you are that willing to be that open, showing off your heart-on proudly I might add, that’s when the other needs to show up for their part with a mutuality. And that’s where healthy protection of your own heart comes in, after you’ve led with revealing yourself to an other, your real self.

And hopefully, you’ve been drawn to people who are open and hungry and at a similar place as you ready to open up, so you won’t have to wade through too many swine, because you’ve been willing to fully bake in your desire and ache for more.

W: Okay, you nailed it, that’s what I want.

DF: Which answers your earlier question about whether more intimacy with more people is what you really want doesn’t it?

W: It does Father, I do want that. I really do. I want to fully embrace that desire, own it, and live in it and be responsive to it, to lead with it, that heart-on as you like to call it. It feels so much better to just admit this, let alone experience another person to share it with.

DF: True, true, because it’s all intimacy. In this case, it’s in-to-you-see, which leads to more in-to-me-see, in a really cool dance. And I think you’re ready for it Wayne, so again, don’t fall off your chair when it shows up.

W: Yeah, don’t want to sprain my heart-on.

DF: Exactly!

Happy Birthday: Dialogues With Divine Father Day Five

Wayne's Mandala

DF: Happy Birthday, Wayne.

W: Yes, thank you, Divine Father.

DF: 54 years this life and what a life, Wayne…

W: Thank you. I’d really like to feel how you see my life.

DF: Thank-YOU, because that’s where I wanted to go today.

W: I open my heart to take in your words and perspective.

DF: You have relentlessly journeyed, relentlessly chosen your own growth and next phase of your life that life brought you, not in spite of your fear, but in full face of your fear. You’ve grown in so many amazing ways, that you are an anomaly in today’s world. And that you can just humbly be you, in everyday life, doing dishes, treading cob, watering the gardens, without need for any kind of false glory recognition touches me so deeply Wayne. You embody and hold my love, and you let it shape and move you, you let it fill and fulfill you.

I’m not done…there’s more.

You are like a newborn at 54. Life is taking a brand new beginning and I feel like a proud father looking in the hospital nursery window to use the metaphor you knew this life. Hell with this looking in the window shit. I’m going in. I want to hold you, and look in your eyes and convey to you my joy and crazy delight and anticipation for your life, and for what comes now. To be accurate, I don’t feel like I own you, or that you owe me anything. I just am so honored that you would bear my name and heart, and let it fill you and reflect me, and I wondrously don’t know where this will go and how this could all turn out. Of course I can’t know. Who are you is so unknown, only to become known as you unfold and do life in this newness that you keep showing up for.

I know you have never quite been in the unknown as you are right now Wayne, with beginning totally afresh with your soulmate and soulfriend, in Mexico, so off-grid that the word off-grid is merely a starting place to describe where you are. Thank you for completing a 30 plus year career last year. Thank you for choosing a new geography and life in alignment with your next growth. And triple Thank you, for not saying you couldn’t afford it, that you couldn’t go on any further, into any more crazy unknowns, that you understandably took in all you could this life. You had every chance to do just that, and I would have wept, not with disappointment, but with joy for all that you did, and my tears right now in this moment are in a state of wonder that you would and did choose what you chose, again.

I might be close to done, hold on.

I’m sorry that you’ve had to ride a line of being seen as a freak in the relationships you chose to leave and enter. I’m sorry for the loss of people connection and the pain you endured of being misunderstood at so many of your choice points. And I’d like to tell you that an era is coming to a close. You had to enter a wilderness of meaningful people connections to find this love inside of you that you find now, to know it more and more, to be enabled to fluently speak this heart language, first, you to you, and now, in an newer and more public way, you to others. This is who you are. This is your true currency. This is your true value in the world. It will be as natural as breathing and a harvest of so many of your choices and learnings up till now.

Wow, I’m waxing prophetic, Wayne, but I feel this for you. I feel you feel it for you. And I think the universe is offering you that if you want this, then you are to own it and live it and breathe it and let it in. In other words, this is still another choice point for you, not a given. I hope it is an easy choice point for you.

W: The birds are going crazy out the window right now, a whole bunch of clatter and answering to each other. I do feel the universes invitation and offering, and I do so accept this gift and my god, I can’t think of a better gift for my birthday.

DF: It’s a bit of a paradox, Wayne, because it is a gift and you earned it. Both are equally true. Being enabled to receive gifts is always a function of your choices and growth and learning.

W: Wow, okay, so I’m letting this in and the tear tracks are pausing on my face in the moment. I feel like I only have a one word vocabulary in the moment, that word being thank you.

And what comes is a feeling of feeling so special, that how could anyone else be as special as me, like you’ve used up all of the specialness jar on me. I hope it’s not a resistance to letting in what you are offering, but I want to invite people following this dialogue to be enabled to take this in personally for themselves too, somehow.

DF: Yes, because love isn’t real unless it multiplies and spontaneously combusts in hearts. Yes, because where love is without tears of deep eye to eye and heart to heart feeling, is a tragedy, lacking true flow. This love needs to be known by others, or it’s a bubble. A love bubble, mind you, which is a good thing and like love in many ways, but love is meant to flow. And what I hear you asking Wayne, is that you want others to know this love and feel this love and to help you bear this love.

W: Yes.

DF: I’m reminded of the meaning of your name – ‘burden bearer.’ You have born this burden and you still do, and a fruition is coming to pass in all of this for you. I want it for others too Wayne, just like you do, but I want them to have it with you.

W: Isn’t that a bit me-centric?

DF: It could be, if you were still running that wound, and needed to heal it. I get that the love you bear and spread to others can only come to you in the form of personal relationships to a degree that you can bear them and make room for them in your life. But I hope you see that you are to spread this great love and courageous choice ability from your heart to many others hearts, not just the few of deep personal relationship and intimacy, but also to the many. Others are to feel and know, and awaken to this love as it is given to them in the giving of your gifts. You’re the gift, birthday boy. And, yes, to answer your question, it is a bit you-centric. In fact, it’s a whole lot you-centric. What’s love without a you, and a me, fully in, emptying the specialness jar like big selfish hogs.

W: Another paradox, self centered love.

DF: Yeah, you get that one. Any love that isn’t centered in self is no love at all.

W: I wonder if I’ll need to pause the dialogues for a week just to let in today.

DF: I think you got this one Wayne. You are bigger than you know, you know?

W: I know. I know I don’t know.

DF: Another paradox. True knowing is always contained in not knowing.

W: Thank you so much Father for this incredible gift today. I love you.

DF: I love you too Wayne, so much. Happy birthweek!

All Of Life Is A Gift: Dialogues With Divine Father Day Four

Wayne's Mandala

W: Hello, Divine Father.

DF: Hello, Wayne.

W: Father, it is so quiet and peaceful here at the ranch. I believe I only heard the sound of an internal combustion engine once in the past four days, and that only faintly for the tiniest moment. I think it may be hard for people to relate to where I live.

DF: Wow, Wayne, I get that. People have lost so much in relation to peace and tranquility that they don’t really notice its absence anymore. It seems the only way back is to make absent the industrial noises and notice from that experience what has gone missing.

W: As I type this, I can hear birds, and other creatures that make chirps, tweets, and I think I max out on my vocabulary trying to describe the other sounds. Some of them are very faint and distant and others a bit jarring, like when the rooster took to hanging out just beside the verandah. The dogs are usually contributing, but they must be resting in the afternoon overcast. There is a virtual heaven here in sound.

DF: And if you listen to the sound, is there a voice or a message to the sounds? Go ahead, try it now.

W: Interesting, Father, as I set out to do this, one of the first things I noticed in listening was the sound of my computer’s fan, as quiet as that is, but when I got past that, I hear a creative energy, creatures in creativity, doing things that are distinctly native to them, of which I am left in curiosity as to what it might be. There is no sense of stress or anxiety.

DF: Good, and now see if you can hear a message in that, roll out some words when you are ready.

W: Nothing like putting a guy on the spot.

DF: Go ahead, you can do this. You’ve done it a lot before, your conscious mind has just forgotten.

W: Okay, let me feel some more.

The many birds together say:

Only be that which you most truly are. Take in the energy of the sun and the universe that provides all things and let it move you to be you. Let go of that which is not you. Let your life force flow through you as a song that brings beauty and joy to everyone who has ears to hear.

Wow, Father God, the birds are actually talking to me.

DF: Of course they are, Wayne, of course.

W: Wow, Like, that’s what they’re really sayin’ then, you agree?

DF: They bring what you need to hear when you need to hear it. And, yes, that feels like what they are saying to you right now. And they’re pumped to have your ears. They can tell when you are giving them the gift of your attention.

W: This is cool stuff, Father.

DF: Okay, so it is. Now, see if you can transport yourself back to a busy noisy place somewhere, tune that in and see if you can hear the message or words in that noise.

W: Okay, I got to think of a place…ok, got one, the intersection outside a condo I used to live in, on a major thoroughfare.

DF: Perfect, get yourself seated there somewhere, close your eyes and listen and feel.

W: Got it.

The message I hear is. ‘No Time, I gotta go, or I’ll get behind. Gotta get ahead. The only person who cares for me is me. There is no beauty, only ‘progress’ and ‘development,’ but certainly no place for joy, or deep and real pleasure, or connection.

DF: And how does the message make you feel?

W: There is gasping for air, hunger to be seen and noticed and appreciated, in all of this speed and efficiency. If only I could do it faster and more efficiently, that would be perfect. There is great stress on the edge of a breaking point.

DF: And anything else you notice?

The birds here are mostly only a nuisance, nesting and pooping where they annoy people. They make messes of open trash cans and tossed out fast food bags.

DF: Wow, Wayne. That’s a pretty full deal right there. One setting opens you out and celebrates you, the other shuts you down, but still drives you, leaves you in stress and disconnection.

W: I’ll say, wow.

DF: So why did you live there?

W: I don’t know…

DF: Why do you think you lived there? This may be a bit hard to feel, but I think you can get to it.

W: As I feel it now, I could say it was about convenience, or proximity to my work, but that wouldn’t be true on the level you are talking now. The deeper truth I can feel is that I lived there because the message of that setting resonated with how I felt about myself. The lack of space to naturally and fully be myself, was somehow wired up as a side benefit of living there. And under that, I can feel this deeper me not resolved yet on whether it was then ready or not to be born into a world of beauty, and being seen and noticed.

DF: I’m so glad you live where you live now.

W: I am too, Father, most of the time. It isn’t without its adjustments and missings of something familiar.

DF: Yes, I have so felt you feeling your way through those missings as they come up for you.

W: Thank you. I feel that. I have felt your support to fully feel what I miss and have tears when I need to.

DF: The old familiar needs to be mourned and let go of to make room for a new familiar. The good news is that you are not meant to be without familiar comforts that make you feel helped and protected and loved and connected with.

W: I like feeling that, Father. Thank you again.

DF: Listen to the animals, they will help you move through these changes with less discomfort and pain. They are gifts to you to help you with your ongoing transmutation. You are not meant to do any of this without support and love and connection.

W: You come through the animals then?

DF: I do. There’s no hangups between me and them.

W: I will do that more and more, Father. I know I keep saying thank you, it’s just that I feel grateful when I feel our connection.

DF: That’s a good sign, Wayne. Everything you have has been given to you, so it’s your default state actually – Gratitude. All of life is a gift. Live where you can feel the gift, and express the gift to others. Receive the gifts of others gratitude in return. I want you to be well, really, really well.

W: Thank you, Father.

DF: Thank you, Wayne.

 You Can’t Save A Story Whose Time Is Done: Dialogues With Divine Father Day Three

Wayne's Mandala

W: Hello Father.

DF: Hello Wayne.

W: Father, I have a curious question for you.

DF: Curious I like. Please.

W: What is this connection that you and I share?

DF: Say more.

W: I mean, is it real, or is it imagined? Who is the you that I contact? How are the people who are reading this supposed to hold it? Am I like, ‘downloading God’? That’s quite a claim. If I could convince folks of that, it should sell for a fortune.

DF: I know you’re playing a bit dumb here, Wayne, but I can play along. Hopefully, we don’t offend folks with our condescension.

Of course, this is your imagination. And it’s very real. Both are true. Every belief about God that is on the planet now began in the imagination of one person, became stronger as that became a shared imagination and what came next were stories. There is nothing more profound than stories to move people and the universe. Hopefully, you and I will get real comfortable in your imagination and begin a brand new story.

W: Wow, so why do we trip over that, Father, the argument that something real isn’t imagined? As you say… what you just said, I can get that everything we call ‘real’, obviously began in the imagination, as an image. ‘Imagination’ and ‘real’ aren’t as far apart… as we imagined.

DF: And I don’t mean to jump to far ahead here, Wayne, but once you get that, then and only then can you actually take responsibility for the stories you are living from, the stories that are living you, and the stories you are giving strength to by doing so.

W: Let’s go there in a moment. I need to feel this piece that God is all in my head.

DF: And your heart.

W: And my heart.

DF: Right.

W: Not sure where to go now, you’re tweaking me.

DF: Tweaking’s good.

W: In the Christian bible… now there’s a story and a half that really held my consciousness for most of my life, first book ever written in fact…the deal was whether I believed the story as offered to be ‘thee truth’ or not that determines if I would go to heaven or hell. Those are two more very big stories, which goes to show…. what, Father?

DF: That anyone can be a really lousy story teller and get lots of people to listen.

W: You’re calling me a dumb dumb?

DF: Ahh, Wayne. No, I didn’t mean it that way. It’s just that we’re going to need to have some fun with this if we’re gonna blow up a story the size of the moon and come up with a new one.

W: So that’s what you have in mind.

DF: Father God vs. Heavenly Father. May the best God win!

W: You’ve already got a bit punchy in the first two days about false god stuff. It scares part of me with the shit you might stir up. I might need to double check with my parts if they are up for this ride?

DF: You may need to. You’re right.

W: Okay, I’ll do that.

DF: Good.

Here’s the thing, Wayne. The whole world is drowning in stories that have outlived their usefulness. The old God stories are stories in the most absolute sense possible. Humans are only and ever moved by nothing more than story.

W: Even I used to admit as a Christian, that the God story of the bible was in the truest sense, only and ever a story, but one that I believed to be a true story, something that really happened, that the story just gave an accurate account of.

DF: But you had no way of actually knowing if the story was a literal account or just a story pulled out of someone’s…mind.

W: All I could do for me, or offer to the person who I wanted to adopt the story like I had, was that they needed to believe, because there was no other way of proving per se. We don’t have talking snakes in our present ‘real’ world.

DF: And you know, that’s another bummer. I think all snakes should talk.

W: You’re proving to be quite a character.

DF: If we are busy reinventing God, don’t you think we should make it interesting? I’d like to be interesting.

W: But God, there’s a lot of people who’d be pissed as hell if these dialogues go anywhere out there in story land, and they’ve proven they can do some serious shit when they all get together and get pissed enough.

DF: And I say, piss on them. Truly. They are in the hell of their own choosing and there is no helping them.

W: Do you really mean that, Father God? I mean, it hurts to feel people really beyond help.

DF: Okay, so I’m a bit of an ass. It’s just how I’m feeling today. Maybe tomorrow, you’ll get something different out of me. The deal is though that people, if they are anything, they are subscribers to story. It is story that leads, guides and directs. Consciousness arising is simply taking responsibility for the stories you’ve let get in on the inside. Want a real and lasting deep life change? Look at the story you are reenacting, and find a new one, or better yet, make one up! God dammit!

W: There’s still stories I still want to change in my life.

DF: See, you’re anything but a dumb dumb, Wayne. You see that everything literal is born of story, and all story is imagination, and an imagination led by heart and love literally recreates the world. Nothing can stop a story whose time has come. And nothing can save an old story whose time is up. Sorry ‘Heavenly Father’,… loving jerk with ninety some percent of your subjects roasting in eternal hell-fires with not even the courtesy of an end to existence.

W: Wow, when you say it that way, you’re not half as nasty as that guy.

DF: You think I’m nasty?

W: I’m just getting to know you.

DF: With a couple reservations…

W: Maybe a couple…

DF: Good, you don’t want to buy any more tall stories.

Thank you again, Divine Father. I want your help in feeling the stories I have running, and guidance around finding replacements. Ones I can feel and heal with.

Let’s do that, Wayne. We’ll get beyond the angst, really we will, into heart and love and passion. I’m not sure what, but like I said, no use coming up with a dull story, nobody’d pay no mind. Manana, Amigo.

 Never Ending Deepening In Love And Wonder: Dialogues With Divine Father Day Two

Wayne's Mandala

W:  Hello, Divine Father

DF:  Hello, Wayne.

W:  Thank you for being and thank you for being here with me.

DF:  You’re welcome, Wayne.

W:  Well, Father, I’m not sure how to begin.

DF:  You just start.

W:  Okay. I can feel Tristan inside of me, he’s my retiring contractor wanting to tell you a little story. I’m glad he feels okay to be this direct with you.

DF:  I’d love to hear that story.

Tristan:  Tristan says: Hello Father.

DF:  Hello Tristan.

T:  Yesterday, after we talked with you. I felt a bit overwhelmed taking on another big project of writing every day. There’s the time needed to write, check it over, and then get it ready for posting and all of that. Then there’s the impact on the morning work schedule we’ve been keeping around cob building that affects working with Jillian and Christopher. So I asked you for some guidance and support around all of that. I felt myself settle into trust around it as the day went on, but then at bedtime, there was a cool gift.

DF:  Cool gifts are really good. What was it?

T:  A firefly flew right into our room, after dark, landed on my e-reader, buzzed around, all lit up, and then sat on the wall on the slow fade in and out setting. We named him Sparky.  Jillian got out of bed to get our animal totem booklet and this is what it said about the firefly: Keep your hope strong. New Inspiration is awakening. Trust your own rhythms. Hope is critical to fulfillment and accomplishment.

DF:  Awesome, Tristan. And how does that help you now?

T:  Well, I’ve been doing so much linear mind stuff all my life, technical customer service stuff and painting contracting that it was difficult to feel any of it inside of a divine container. Stuff like the firefly’s message helps me see the divine reverence for all of life that underlies all things. I really want to see that more and more.

DF:  And Tristan, so you shall my friend, so you shall.

T:  Thank you Father.

DF:  No, thank you. Thank you for your overwhelm, for being willing to feel it and  ask for help from inside of it, feel your trust, find your answer and especially thank you for being willing to share it. You are a great man with a child’s heart.

Wayne:  Thank you for feeling Tristan, Father.

DF:  You’re both welcome, big time.

W:  Now my heart is overwhelmed again, but with a really good feeling of being loved, and unique, and connected. I can feel your energy and heart going into Tristan and me both.

DF:  Divine overwhelm.

W:  So you are into fireflies?

DF:  I am. That is just part of the whole lit up deal, you know.

W:  The whole lit up deal?

DF:  The whole lit up deal. That’s as good a name for it as any. It’s when life takes on a new and deepening glow because you choose to see.

W:  I choose to see and yet I know that I want to see so much more.

DF:  If you are willing to see, Wayne, and willing to need and feel, I can assure you the rest of your days will be filled with deepening wonder, deepening experience of love.

W:  Wow, I really wonder if I can let that in, Father. How do I really feel deep down inside of me about a never ending deepening in love and wonder?

DF:  Wayne, even the means to let in more capacity to let in love is something that is given to you inside of relationship. You use up what you have and come back for more.

W:  That’s feels like what’s really true for me right now Father, thank you.

I want to let in my next pieces, big or small. Life has changed so much this past year with leaving Canada, laying down an old livelihood, and moving to an off grid ranch in rural Mexico. Many times, parts of me feel a missing of something, having let go of so much, being in so much newness and trust. But really, I can’t really place what it is that I miss from my old life. It feels like what I am really aching for is a deeper and more moment by moment felt connection with you. I guess I’ve used up what I had and am hungry for more, like you say.

DF:  Wayne. Love is here now. For you. With me. A deep awareness that all of life is arrayed in union to bring you goodness, heart, and meaning. Everything that I am and all that I have, I share it with you, as you do likewise. Nothing can separate you from this love, never, ever.

W:  And I choose again in this moment to let this love in, to let it fill me, move me, bathe me, to let it color how I feel about myself, how my parts feel about themselves.

DF:  Wayne, do that. Do just that. Please. From my end, love that doesn’t get to flow because of a stopped up heart that can’t or won’t receive it is a royal pain in the ass.

W:  I’ll bet. Like clogged plumbing.

DF:  Exactly.

W:  Thank you, Father. I feel to pause on words and conversation and let in this feeling that is here now. Not that we can’t talk more as we go, it’s just that I need to walk it out. I feel you shifting something big in me, making room for where we are going, wherever that is.

DF:  Good call. Tomorrow then?

W:  Yes, as we say here, Manana.

Exchanging Letters: Dialogues With Divine Father Day One

Recently, Jillian, Christopher and I, were feeling together the need and desire to embrace the voice of the Divine Father in this time of deep global transmutation and change. Who are you? What is your deepest and truest path? What changes should you embrace to find that? I deeply hope and desire that Dialogues With The Divine Father will take you naturally to your answers to those questions, and to more of your own unique and sovereign connection with The Divine.

Wayne Vriend

A god who can’t feel you, or that you can’t feel is no god at all.

Dear Divine Father,

This is Wayne.

I hope you don’t mind being called that. I need a personal name for the sacred masculine and I’m open to calling you whatever you’d like. It’s just that the Christians took up heavenly father already, and look where that’s gone, and you seem so much more here than heavenly, and the native term of father sky seems too far off somehow for me too. Maybe this is because of my heavy conditioning this life to see the sacred and spiritual as cordoned off somehow from the natural and everyday and mundane. I’d sure like to talk more with you about that one for sure. What I’m feeling is that I long to relate with you and integrate that relationship into my real everyday life. Then I had this idea that I’d like to have and write a daily dialogue starting today, and I’d like to know what you think of that. Like, if I’m going to do this, why not make it public and share it as an offering of my deepest gifts into the world? I did that for 90 days With Yeshua and it changed me so much, that I’m still trying to catch up with it in many ways. Yeshua has a ton of the sacred masculine running, as you know, and our species, me included, has never needed a big dose of the sacred masculine more than it does now.

I feel, Divine Father, that spirituality in general has muddied the waters to the degree where most people don’t see a personal connection with you as a birthright, or native to them, but as a far off removed attainment of some weird kind. My sense is that talking with you, feeling and listening, and then writing what I feel in response is the real deal, available to all. I know so many have tried to make it something more spiritually spooky than that, but mostly what they did was exclude themselves as well as install what amounted to a control and power mechanism over others. No offense if you actually are more spiritually spooky than I’ve imagined, it’s just that I have a heart that feels and speaks and listens and I want to engage that, trust that, that that is enough to learn what I need to learn and long to learn.

Yeshua said so much about how true learning begins with not knowing, the quest of true questions, and I feel how he got that all from you, by not knowing, and questing with his questions. I have a ton of questions, Father. Tons and tons. Each answer I get leads to more questions.

Calling you Father just now makes me feel the young part of me that I call ‘Magical God Child, or MGC for short.’ He’s a new part that I just met recently and I’m guessing that a more personal name will arise for him as I get to know him better, but I wanted to tell you about him, as I can feel his interest in this conversation.

In short, Divine Father, we are so longing to find a sacred masculine energy with which to sort ourselves out. The masculine and the feminine too are at a deep crossroads, our entire human history it feels like is at a place of a sacred death and rebirth. Something huge is collapsing, something whose time is completing and making way for something new.

All of that metaphysics is way cool of course, but then there’s the me who lives in Mexico, on a remote ranch, with my wife and close friend, that really wants to be able to apply this connection with you when I’m watering the garden or treading out another batch of cob for the cabanas we’re building. What is moving in me moment by moment? And how is that a reflection of what’s real in my relationship with you, Divine Father?

I should wrap this up because I can feel you eager to respond and patient too to let me say all I want to say. Thank you. Thank you for the prompt and the idea to start this dialogue. I need the connection and I need to give my deepest gifts of sharing that connection.

Yours truly,

Wayne

Dear Wayne,

This is Divine Father.

Thank you for contacting me. You’re right, contacting me is so easy, so easy in fact, that’s what makes it difficult for most people. It only requires need and vulnerability and desire. Sadly though, getting there is the biggest and hardest part of the journey. But so doable, if anyone wants to.

Wayne, you are so all over the place, (if you don’t mind me saying), in a really good way. I have always loved that about you. Thank you for questioning and thank you for not being satisfied with the answers. Most people have yet to conceive that there is much I don’t know. They then create a false god image of me who is all knowing so they can pretend to be little sub versions of it, godliness with a sprinkle of false humility to keep the cover.

I said ‘they’ just now, didn’t I? I don’t mean to be distancing in my wording, it’s just that there is in fact a big distance between me and so many. The distance is not innate, or uncrossable, but it is relational. Need, desire and want has to lead. Truth is, I’m lonely for connection with you, and in danger of learning to settle for the lack of connection. Nothing lights me up more than someone who wants to connect. See that, contrary to popular misconception, needs is another thing I have.

Back to your letter. Pardon me, I was noting you for being all over the place. I feel a booming yes to everything you said, but let me see what I need to mention specifically. Calling me Divine Father is fine, as long as I can call you Divine Son. I am not ashamed in any way to be called and known as your father, but so deeply honored. You could call me Wayne’s dad too for that matter. Yeshua was never my only begotten son, but let’s save that for later. Yes, we can fill up a lot of days with dialogue. I’d like that a lot. It’s going to take us some time to feel totally comfortable with each other, but that’s all good and part of the process. I’m liking the 90 days thing again actually like you did with Yeshua, but we can let that unfold and see where it goes.

I feel Magical God Child inside of you and I’d like to get to know and feel him deeply as we go. Thank you for introducing us already.

You’re so right about the complications and pretzels people put themselves in trying to relate or not to relate to what really amounts to their own divinity. I am not ‘god’ as many conceive of when they use that title. That bastard is a false idol construct created out of the ample supply of true relational disconnect. I’m sorry dear Christian, dear Buddhist, dear Muslim if that offends, and I know it does, but I invite you to feel into the possibility that any real and dear feelings you have towards ‘god’ are in fact a measure of your and my actual and real connection. Your true and deep connection with god is owned by no one, cannot be certified by anyone, and cannot be taken from you or given to by anyone. It’s sovereignly yours, because you are a sovereign. We get to share and relate inside of sovereignty. Anything less is a fraud and a deception of everything you and I actually are.

Yes, we can take all this up and more up in question and quests. Let’s call it that instead of question and answer. I can promise you that you will not come out the other side of this the same. People know that intuitively, don’t they? Real relationship always changes deeply, hence the false substitutes. Change needn’t be nearly as scary inside of a real relationship. Change is as natural as being born, which is meant to be the first of many. You so touch me, Wayne, with your willingness to embrace change, to let it in and welcome it.

I feel your heart’s cry for a deeper knowing and feeling of real divine-sacred-masculine energy and power in your day to day grounded and real life. How you feel about yourself in any and every moment is the essence of life, the essence of divinity and the essence of the sacred journey called humanity. So let’s feel together, Wayne, every day, if we can. Let’s share the feeling, because a feeling is only a feeling if it is felt by an other….hello?

A god who can’t feel you, or that you can’t feel is no god at all.

Man, I get what you say, Wayne, I should probably end this for now. Save it for our daily digest. I think I need the day to get ready for what’s coming tomorrow. Thank you for taking my suggestion so seriously. I hope this touches many and deeply so, and draws more people to connect with you, and Jillian and Christopher. I feel the project you are undertaking.

And one more yes. Yes to you giving your deepest gift to the world. There’s one of the biggest secrets in the universe about how to find your deepest and truest destiny. Set out to give your deepest gifts. Let that lead you step by step, and you can be rest assured that will lead so many fewer regrets, and deep joy and love of being.

Yours truly,

Divine Father

Moving From Materialism to ‘Motherialism’- Mission To Me Journal With Wayne And Yeshua: Day Five

 

 

missiontomewayne

By Wayne Vriend

Fully feel every fear contraction. Let the fear be felt, held and loved, and thereby transmuted into true courage that can choose new love.

Wayne – Hey, Yeshua. Jillian just asked me if all the typing noise was me talking to you. I told her it wasn’t and then I realized how much I miss our connection.

Yeshua – Interesting how women can ask questions that are more than curiosity, huh?

W – Sometimes maddening, but only to the part of me stuck on staying small.

Y – What’s rocking your world?

W – You mean my cradle?

Y – What do I mean?…you tell me.

W – Well, it feels like a lot going through the pipe right now as we plan to leave in October to Mexico with a busy spell of painting contracts this past few weeks as we gather resources. Last night, I had this lucid dream about falling in love, and in it I was explaining the difference between falling in love and choosing real love, still based on deep desire, of course. I think the dream has something to do with Mexico.

Y – Now, there’s a great picture. People talk about the magic of falling in love, as if it is an unexpected accident; something they don’t choose. If they get a bit more meta-physical about it, then they suppose that love chose them. But, in both scenarios, their picture is that they were not the ones taking action. The only problem is that to follow the ‘I had nothing to do with falling in love’ picture is that a whole bunch of choices are coming straight at them. They are going to need to have a whole lot to do with the love for it to flourish or to die.

W – But, I still like the feeling of surprise that new love brings, like something that came out of nowhere.

Y – Being in life is being in love. Love moves every cell in the universe, and love moves every universe in the cell. It’s all love through and through. The feeling of surprise is just part of the juice of the game of renewed trust that invites us and encourages us to let in another big gulp of that love.

W – But then, for most people, the magic of romance seems to wear off.

Y – ‘Wears off’ is again a victim’s picture. The victim says, ‘Love surprised me by its entry and then surprised me again by its exit.’ No! You were too afraid to really let yourself consciously dream of your next phase of letting in love and how that might look and how you might cooperate responsibly to begin preparing for that. You needed to moderate love’s flow into a toned down picture of leaving yourself out of it. The same goes for seeing love’s ebb as something outside of yourself.

W – So, what does your picture look like in contrast?

Y – As you get more and more in shape heart-wise, you begin to accept more and more that you are love’s experiment.

W – Experiment?

Y – I know what you’re thinking. That ‘experiment’ is a bad word because many experiments fail. But love never fails. Love keeps its heart open in any circumstance. It is only in this way that love can come to know itself. The cool thing is that love is fixated on knowing itself in and through you. It wants to keep bringing you new love deals that feel like falling in love. It’s always up to the individual if they want it or not.

W – Usually it’s not a question of if they want it or not. It’s a question of if they want what comes with it or not.

Y – Exactly. Good point.

W – Thank you. Talking with you, for instance, comes with a bunch of challenges.

Y – Whadda you mean, man?!

W – Love always leads to choice. Choices always test the limits of our courage, challenge our identity, and challenge our current cradle.

Y – You saying that I do that?

W – I’m saying that you always advocate for letting in my next piece as courageously as I can.

Y – Okay, that I do do.

W – That you do do.

Y – do-do.

W – do-do.

Y – This is the essential do-do of life. Life begets life. Life moves.

W – And then we try to arrest it somehow, make it more stationary and predictable.

Y – And that’s all because we cannot accept that life is not afraid of death, but instead embraces death as love’s and life’s never ending opening to love.

W – But that takes some serious being in heart shape to dance with.

Y – Yes it does. The divine doesn’t want you to self destruct or suffer but at the same time, the divine won’t fret too much over your choices to stay stuck. It knows that love never fails.

W – It just has a longer term picture than we do.

Y – It takes the time it takes.

W – And we have nothing but time.

Y – Time to experiment and be in love.

W – I want more love.

Y – But that requires leaving the cradle of security that you currently know.

W – And choosing that… as in planning to give up my geography, my language, my livelihood, and this paradise of living beside the ocean and a forest and a creek definitely has its ebbs and flows of excitement and desire and, then, contractions.

Y – And all you are asked to do is fully feel every contraction. Let the fear be felt and held and loved. It is only as a fear is felt that it can be transmuted into true courage that can choose new love and all that it asks you to choose.

W – So then, it’s natural for me to give up something really good for something that isn’t a sure deal.

Y – It’s natural for what was a sure deal to lose its luster as it invites you to choose again. The luster fades as part of the invitation. You staying in a geography that has been a heaven to you can turn it into a hell. All the moralizing about ‘blooming where you are planted’ won’t change that.

W – And this is what leaves me inside of love’s essence…choosing what life is bringing me next.

Y – It really is that simple. Life always changes. It’s up to you to go along or not.

W – And if we don’t go along……

Y – You suffer, but love doesn’t really. Love moves. Suffering is a static state that doesn’t move. Suffering is chosen by the soul as a way to remain in stasis while more courage is cultivated to reenter the flow.

W – And whole new heavens await if we move with love.

Y – They so do.

W – From do do to so do.

Y – That’s what’s rocking your cradle, a newer and better cradle.

W – Why would we ever substitute materialism for this?

Y – This is the real ‘mater’ of materialism. Mother is derived from the word Mater. Mother realism.

W – Whoa. So I am moving from what we call materialism to ‘Motherialism.’

Y – And Mother wants to meet (realize) your ‘material’ needs.

W – I just need to let that in some more.

Y – Let your current cradle tip over into the next one.

W – And become very ‘Motherialistic.’

Y – Let Mother be your reality.

W – Okay, I’ll be a few days digesting that.

Y – Yes, you will.

Learning Wants To Possess You With Childlike Wonder – Mission To Me Journal With Wayne And Yeshua: Day Four

 

missiontomewayne

By Wayne Vriend

The wonder of being a small child has been crowded out by what we learned (posessed) and replaced with duty, obligation and entitlement.

Wayne – Yeshua, Good Morning? Are your ears on?

Yeshua – Always on, my man.

W – I like it when you call me that…:)

Y – Good! What’s up, my man?

W – I’d like to ask you about learning.

Y – You never get enough do you? We talked about that already, didn’t we?

W – Yeah, but I forgot it all.

Y – Well, how am I supposed to learn you anything if you can’t remember?

W – The fun was in learning, and going ‘wow,’ so I figured if I forgot it all, then I could have fun relearning it. I got that from you actually. Forgetting shit is what leads to being re-membered.

Y – See that, you are learning.

W – Learning to know how to be in not knowing.

Y – And THAT is what tickets you into the theatre of real learning which is always and ever beholding wonder. Wonder by definition is not knowing. Canned knowledge, the kind that most peddle in schools, is learning stripped of wonder.

W – How do I get back to being in wonder, then? I know I suffer from the deadness you are referring to.

Y – Like any other learning, you hold the quest of the question, and see that you can never own or be entitled to any knowing, you can only and ever humbly be a partaker of the wonder, and temporarily at that.

W – Whoa…

Y – And realize that all knowledge is born of not knowing and eventually returns to being forgotten, which is to renunciate (for-get) ownership of the knowledge that was gotten.

W – Knowledge will cease…

Y – Yes, in order to let die what is dying and make way for new wonder.

W – So how do I apply that to say, my spanish studies, is what I’d like to know? By the way, Yeshua, I can so feel the part of me invested in this conversation who feels like a late teenager but is so wanting to learn and grow and make his life count.

Y – Hello to that part of you, Wayne. I recall him as Marvin, yes?

W – Yes, Marvin says ‘Hey Yeshua.’ I think I’ll just let him in on this conversation.

Y – Hey Marvin, I’m liking your desire to be in wonder.

Marvin – Thanks, Yeshua.

Y – What would you say about what we are talking about?

M – I’m feeling how the wonder of being a small child has been forgotten and crowded out by what we learned in school and how getting back to aliveness is about unlearning, not more learning, at least in the way we’ve related to learning.

Y – That says it in a really cool way. And it says how even the essence of childlike wonder is forgotten, but its imprint remains and calls to us.

M – Which is what I want to get back to.

Y- Why?

M – Because it’s boring and dead to be removed from wonder.

Y – Here’s a secret, you don’t need to go back to anything. Nature doesn’t work that way.

M – Huh?

Y – You can get to where you want to be by going forward.

M – That sounds good, but how do I do that?

Y – The childlike wonder gave rise to canned knowledge and to adultlike duty and obligation and entitlement that crowded out the wonder, right?

M – Exactly.

Y – So duty,obligation, and entitlement killed the wonder. Feel the deadness of what you once treasured, how it feels so hopeless to ever return to wonder. That is being in the deadness, which is never dead as we think of it. Death is always alchemical and transmutational. The compost heap of yesterday’s knowledge wants to transmute into the rich and vital organic soil of new wonder.

M – Forgetting in order to be re-membered…

Y – …into never ending wonder

M – How does that relate to our spanish lessons then?

Y – Know that as you learn to speak any word or phrase in spanish, it is being given to you, entrusted, you cannot own it. You don’t actually own english. Owning is the entitled sense that you have english conquered, and thereby you killed the wonder of the experience. Instead feel how language is a collective energy of flowing, not static knowledge, that is given to those who will steward this energy. Get that down pat and you should be able to learn Spanish just fine.

M – But I need to let go of trying to capture the knowledge…

Y – Yes, that’s it. Instead seek to be the grandest host you can be for the knowledge, be a temporary steward of it in its never ending cycle of death and rebirth into more and more wonder. Knowing and not knowing.

M – But I still feel a lot of energy to possess the learning, nail it down, get ahead and all that stuff.

Y – Feel instead how learning wants to possess you. It wants to be hosted in you, animated by you. Learning and wonder can’t have its fun without you.

M – So sign up for letting wonder be reborn in me?

Y – Totally.

M – Thanks, Yeshua

Y – You’re so welcome. I so wait for the day that more folks get onto this phase of real learning. There’s so much more wonder aching to be born.

Wayne – Whoa, Marvin’s an energy all of his own. We were up late last night eating vegan chocolate ice cream and studying spanish, and then we got onto what is real learning and he wanted to talk this out with you. Between the chocolate and the excitement, it was hard getting to sleep. My head still hurts.

Y – I love that feeling of new desire leading and aching out what feels like birth contractions.

W – My aching head needs some more life space to integrate all this Yesh. I think I’ll break here.

Y – Yeah, learning is never ending and it needs life to be in it healthily.

W – Now you can’t stop.

Y – No I can’t. Wonder is so very cool. Thank you Wayne and Marvin for your desire to learn. Learning is all just desire, you know?

W – No, I don’t know, but I’ll save that for another day.

Y – Desire, set free from possessing.

W – Next day Yeshua, Okay.

Y – This is why we have cycles of days you know, to let in more wonder.

W – No I don’t know.

Y – Good!

All Learning Is Actually Heart-Based Learning – Mission To Me Journal With Wayne And Yeshua: Day Three

 

 

 

missiontomewayneBy Wayne Vriend

Feeling based on simple real needs and desires is what’s leading, not the complexity of conformity or inauthenticity.

When learning denies simplicity, it wonders for years in the desert of complexity.

Wayne – Good morning again, Yeshua.

Yeshua – Hey Wayne, what is moving in you?

W – Jillian and I are oceanside, up on a ridge, plenty of view through tall evergreens, great sun, finally warm and the oxygen is amazing.

Y – You noticed the oxygen?

W – I take a deep breath of it when I step outside. It’s pure and alive.

Y – So you’re breathing deeper?

W – Yeah, that’s true physically and metaphorically.

Y – Things that are true physically are true metaphorically.

W – As in?

Y – One day at a time is true physically, right?

W – Uh-huh.

Y – and it’s true metaphorically.

W – We’re getting too simple, part of me says…

Y – You can never get too simple. It’s in the simplicity that complexity is both born as well as sustained.

W – Are you taking us on a mental trip this morning?

Y – We’re only using the mental as a vehicle to probe the heart and open the heart. All learning is actually heart-based learning. All learning begins with feeling and is even sustained by feeling.

W – Wouldn’t some math students beg to differ?

Y – The math student that labors dutifully with learning and doesn’t seem to engage his heart actually has his heart deeply engaged in the process. He just isn’t aware of it. Somewhere in his heart, he has agreed that to get ahead, or to get acceptance, he must sacrifice himself to the most heartless and boring form of learning. It may look like a bunch of mental learning, but it is a human heart first that is the agency of the mind. In this case, it is a wounded heart, on life support that’s leading.

W – Whoa, you’re opening my heart right now.

Y – And what do you feel as that happens?

W – I feel desire, like a deeper breathing, a resonance with an abundant universe, like no shortage of oxygen.

Y – Simplify that a bit for me.

W – I feel good.

Y – You-feel-good. Good. You were created to feel good.

W – A feel good religion?

Y – Totally. I never claimed anything more or less.

W – You didn’t balk at the word, ‘religion’?

Y – I never challenged people’s religions, I challenged their inauthenticity with themselves. Many people are originally drawn to a religion because it made them feel really good. I just want to revive their feel good mechanism, by getting them in touch with how bad they are actually feeling.

W – That’s almost too basic, Yeshua. It’s like offensive to the sophisticated self.

Y – Real learning is soo childlike. Children are natural and complete learners.

W – I love that line of yours – ‘Allow the little children to come unto me, for such is the kingdom of heaven’.

Y – Yeah, and don’t forget the back story. It was a bunch of adults clamoring around me, and they were shushing the noisy children from interrupting their order. I had to make them feel that those childrens interruptions were actually far more in line with learning than their clamoring energy.

W – I can so feel in me a desire to de-adultize myself right now.

Y – I feel that in you and it feels good.

W – Any advice on how to bolster that?

Y – Yes, feel the difference between the pursuit of knowledge or learning or ability from this tainted adult mindset of sophisticated learning and then feel the raw curiosity that the young child has before he or she ‘learned’ to feel superior because of what they learned, which was actually their first damper on learning. Ok, that was a long sentence. What I meant to say is, feel the difference between what is meant and felt by the popular usage of the word ‘learning’, feel the bullshit in it, and then feel the young child’s curiosity, wonder. Ok, that was another long sentence. The short answer is….’feel.’

W – It’s like I can feel the feel good reality like a small child knows it and compare that with the heavily dampened adult feel good reality that is mostly a medicative mechanism.

Y – Yes, you were meant to feel good, and when you don’t feel good, that feeling is the feeling you are given to be with.

W – Like a child doesn’t always feel good?

Y – True, but don’t mistake happiness and contentment or the lack thereof with an absence of feeling.

W – Huh?

Y – The child cries when its needs are not met. It is in feeling touch with its needs, and it makes noise and scrunches up to signal that it wants something. It wants to return to feeling good, but it is still in feeling reality. Feeling based on simple real needs and desires is what’s leading, not the complexity of conformity or inauthenticity.

W – It’s like the child is in touch and so is current with their feelings. Loss or need is expressing in the present, so there isn’t pain or baggage being carried from previous undigested losses.

Y – And that, my friend, is the big dilemma that you are wrestling with in the ache to return to essence. How does one process pain so as to make it digestible?

W – Please go on…

Y – I’d like to learn for a moment here. You give me your best childlike feeling-based answer to that question. Don’t worry if your adult language gets a bit wordy.

W – Hmm, it starts with an awareness that something is limiting and enclosing me off from the quality of the oxygen I was once used to. I don’t expect that I should feel good all the time, but now I recognize that I have become OK with feeling bad. I no longer scream or scrunch up or cry. The only way through the backlog of the baggage of pain, that is the pain I chose to carry along with me, rather than feel it in the moment.

Y – I love that. Simple as that.

W – But there are entire doctorates of learning on this subject in the mental health world.

Y – When learning denies simplicity, it wonders for years in the desert of complexity.

W – Why does learning deny simplicity?

Y – Great childlike question. Why do you think it does that?

W – Well, what comes first for me is the self image grab that folks are looking for in sophistication.

Y – And why would anyone be out looking to grab onto self image?

W – Because they lack a feeling good self, as they are, that needs no image at all.

Y – And why do they lack a feeling good self?

W – Because they stopped feeling good somewhere along the way.

Y – And how did that come about?

W – I think it’s because they were threatened with conformity and fear of loss by a caregiver telling them and training them to be different than they were being.

Y – And why would a tragedy such as that occur under the pretense of care, no less?

W – Because the adult was no longer comfortable with the raw feelings of the child and misery wants company.

Y – And why would misery need company to such degree to sacrifice one’s own child for the cause?

W – Because adults are fucked. Mostly.

Y – What are you feeling as you say that?

W – I’m feeling pissed at how I was duped into giving up my reality for theirs.

Y – There’s a true learning feeling-need that wants to scream and scrunch up. Give it the oxygen that it once knew, but has ‘learned’ to do without.

W – Screaming and oxygen go together.

Y – Yes, good one. You find the scream by tracing back to where you left off the path feeling truly good, and then scream like hell every time you feel tempted to sacrifice your own truth under the barbaric guise of care.

W – Without getting hauled off to the looney bin?

Y – There’s no way to do that actually. If it’s not the literal looney bin, it’s the figurative one being excommunicated by your social world.

W – Where belonging means shutting up just like at 2 years old.

Y – What are you taking from all of this today, Wayne?

W – I so want to re-authorize, even so much more than I already have, my felt reality.

Y – And what is that?

W – My felt reality is self permission to feel and to desire.

Y – Say more.

W – Well, part of me actually is very native still to this feeling desiring world like the one I was born into, but a part of me that has regulated down this reality and judged it as unsafe. I still need to apply for permits to it to have feeling ‘events,’ rather than being simply in full time feeling reality.

Y – And why are you bringing this up on this journey blog series with me?

W – You brought this up?

Y – But you’re talking with yourself.

W – No, you’re talking with yourself.

Y – Good one. You guys are all trying to get spiritual by seeking to know and feel your divinity, while divinity is trying to get in touch with its humanity.

W – That’s kind of a mindblower.

Y – Yeah, thought so. It’s not, ‘what would Jesus do?’ It’s, ‘what would Wayne do?’ What would Wayne do if he was really in his truest human expression where no undigested pain of conformity and compliance were setting the sails?

W – Whoa, now there’s a reality I’d like to find. A back to essence journey. I don’t know the answer to that.

Y – And you know, the divine doesn’t either. It’s reading the book hoping for its money’s worth in an engaging, moving, and learning story. Stories that have stopped learning are complete. They die and return to essence and get back to their beginnings of curiosity and wonder. That’s why you are drawn to journey, Wayne. It’s renewing your lease on learning, not from a place of the power of knowing, but from a place of the wonder and magic of not knowing.

W – So what now?

Y – Breathe deep and feel.

W – But I’ve got a ton of stuff that I feel need guidance, effort, attention and decisions around this adventure that seems to be possessing me more and more.

Y – And the first order of business is deep breathing and feeling like a child does and getting back to essence because that is the entire journey in a nutshell. Everything you learn and grow in in this discovery is nothing more than that. You just need lots of varied life freed from what you’ve learned to get back to learning and to being alive.

W – Okay, there’s a good pause point, because I actually have all the time in the world.

Y – All the time in the world has you.

W – : ) Thanks, Yeshua, Not sure what that means, but I’ll let it in.

Y – Breathe in, Breathe out.

You Can’t Take A Journey And Stay Where You Are – Mission To Me Journal With Wayne And Yeshua: Day Two

By Wayne Vriend

Staying where you are is a settler’s picture, and it is all right and good when the stars are aligned for that. Settling follows journey though, and is a reward and a natural sequence of rest following a great undertaking. People in your culture find no joy or depth of meaning in their settling and instead get jacked up on religion, materialism, and pop culture because their settling wasn’t preceded by any journey of heart and passion. They’re just doing time in the culture they were born into.

Wayne – Good Morning, Yeshua.

Yeshua – Hey Wayne, Good Morning.

W – Summers definitely here, a bit on the early side of it, but it’s here. The morning birdsong is really sweet.

Y – Cool. What’s cooking now?

W – Well, this is a daily ride already, daily ups and downs. Yesterday was an opened out feeling after our talk and then a contraction of mourning and what felt like a fear, even some tears, but I think the word ‘contraction’ better describes it than a fear, though there is definitely concern for how we will be around food and shelter and safety.

Y – What was the contraction over?

W – It felt like some sadness over letting go of the place we’ve made home, our attachment to it, the comfort in it. Jillian and I have been in the Motorhome RV we call Terra for 5 months now, and it’s just been getting to a place where part of me really likes the ease and simplicity of it, the easy budget, the reduced efforts around chasing fiat currency, the trees, the creek, the ocean.

Y – I love how you guys are so current with your feelings. You wouldn’t be able to walk this out with a bunch of unfelt and unhealed reactions clogging your heart.

W – Thank you, Yeshua. I’ve had that very same feeling. It feels good to let in that we have come a long ways, that we have achieved something, that we reached for something that mattered in pursuing our own emotional healing and especially the letting go of what stood in the way of that. It’s hurt like hell at times, but the rewards have been present tense.

Y – It doesn’t get talked about because it has been so off radar. Hell, it was off my radar. Being in shape emotionally takes work and choice and a way of life to support that. It’s what’s next for humanity.

W – You said a moment ago ‘being able to walk this out?’ Can you tell me more about what this is?

Y – You don’t know?

W – I know what I don’t know.

Y – I like that answer. 🙂 THIS is a growth in discovery, beginning from where you are right now, where desire and choice are emerging into your consciousness, precipitating more desire and the contractions you refer to. It’s a process that you surrender to, that changes you as you go. You can’t linearly and literally know what this is, but you can feel it and respond to it in real and grounded ways where the heart is leading and clarity is following and trailing close behind. It’s like we talked about before…….you can’t steer a parked car. It begins with motion.

W – I like what you said yesterday, or was it me? That you can’t embark on a journey and stay where you are.

Y – I said that.

W – I thought it was me.

Y – Well, we’re wrapped up in this pretty closely. Maybe we both downloaded it and one of us spoke it. Speaking prophetically is as easy as falling off a log when you open your heart and let out your desire.

W – I’m learning that and liking that. Somehow though that simple statement about staying or leaving hits me deeply. Can you say more in that prophetic energy of yours?

Y – Staying where you are is a settler’s picture, and it is all right and good when the stars are aligned for that. Settling follows journey though, and is a reward and a natural sequence of rest following a great undertaking. People in your culture find no joy or depth of meaning in their settling and instead get jacked up on religion, materialism, and pop culture because their settling wasn’t preceded by any journey of heart and passion. They’re just doing time in the culture they were born into.

W – I feel that in myself with all the journeying I’ve done this life. I heard it said years ago that all of life is essentially about entering and leaving. I like that because it makes sacred in our awareness all the stages and phases of life, even how we enter and hopefully leave times of darkness, or being asleep to deeper reality, both personally and collectively.

Y – It’s really coded deep into human life. Every human life is a journey, starting with a cell or two. Desire leads it on. Contractions are not intended to arrest the journey, but to open it out to deeper meaning and fulfillment. The divine is seeking its own fulfillment through you. The fullness that fills all in all and all that.

W – For me personally, I feel I’m approaching a ceiling in my growth where to remain too much longer in this culture and country of my birth seems to be grating against my next growth edge. And it’s getting really boring and uninteresting as well.

Y – So what’s your sense of what’s at stake?

W – Well, that’s emerging more than it is here for me in stark clarity, but what I can feel right now is I know I am meant to inhabit a deeper passion, a deeper leadership, a deeper soul energetic that people around can feel that compels them to drop their own facades and false gods. I’m having trouble doing that where I am also invested in the settler’s making ends meet picture, and fitting into some charismatic leader picture that draws a following.

Y – I say fuck the charismatic leader picture, Wayne. Charisma, as it’s become known today is almost a hundred percent bullshit. The era of the charismatic leader is over and it’s not selling like it used to. It was a good ride while it lasted, but mostly in the sense that it brought us collectively to a readiness to abandon that ship and seek a much more seaworthy vessel for the journey of our lives. Realness will soon be the only currency that spends in the domains of what actually matters.

W – Okay then. Fuck that picture. I really spent a long time in my life imagining myself as a sought after and famous charismatic leader. My buy-in into Christianity this life and others was mostly about that I can feel now, to be about ‘what really mattered,’ and to be well known for that.

Y – It may well be in your soul path, Wayne, to be well known at some point, but right now, every well known leader is in the middle of a collective bullshit detector shit storm where humanity is growing up and owning their own responsibility to follow their own lead. If you can lead in that, whoever follows, in whatever number, won’t lack for any meaning or fulfillment.

W – So we’re in the midst of these ideological journeys as a species that involve leaving safe shores and letting die things that were really treasured and revered…

Y – …that mirrors the physical journey you guys are feeling called to. The journey you take always manifests itself in real life action and choice. Deadness and boredom are a manifestation of remaining somewhere when you are called to leave. Leaving is the path to re-engagement.

W – Yeshua, what about the folks, though, that relate to travel or leaving as some medication to their unfelt emotional pains?

Y – Yeah, like the Christians who can’t wait for the rapture.

W – Exactly, or the folks who can’t wait for their next package ‘vacation.’

Y – Only people who are stuck see travel as a dream, or a medication for their pain. You’ve dealt to a pretty high degree with your stuckness this life having finished up with Christianity and a marriage that was complete and a self image that was running out of gas in all of that. Leaving a culture behind that you are considering now isn’t a travel package; it’s a next step into life. You’re not vacating something that you plan to return to, your leaving something behind for good, because it gets burned up as you go. There’s nothing to return to. That’s why parts of you, of course, have their necessary contraction reaction. It’s no different really than leaving the womb.

W – You’re a lot to take in, Yeshua.

Y – Did you get that point? – contractions precede birthings.

W – I know you can’t quit…yes, I need to take in that point…thank you. Thank you for your willingness to digest and feel this whole emerging trajectory with me. I feel this whole thing can be so much more lovingly navigated than what part of me imagines it to be at times.

Y – Well, like you said, this is a mission first to every part of yourself. In the end, you’re the only person you can save.

W – Is that true?

Y – Let’s save that for another day.
