Situations and self love

Let's consider a situation. As 'situations' happen all the time anyway. If I'm missing a feeling of clarity, of rightness, of flow, I'm checking these few things:

How is this self love?
How does this shows self respect?
Does it really follow my heart?
Is it appropriate to act? If yes, how?

Usually, answering these questions brings back the inner alignment. Also, it gives me clarity on how am I respecting other/s involved in the situation. And by respecting others I mean really respecting their decisions, even if those decisions doesn't match my thinking and/or feeling.

Is it always easy? Not necessarily. But hey, do you wanna be happy? Or something?

Love,

Let the form create itself

Listening and following the inner guidance leads to inspired actions. And inspired actions lead to inspired, meaningful life.

Do not force the form into being. Let the form create itself.

This message has been with me since a while, and I'm continuously witnessing its manifestation.

It was part of my learning to let go of control, to let go of desire, of how I want things to be. To trust. To flow. To be.

To discover that life in its wisdom is much more creative than I am by myself, when it comes to the 'how' and 'what' of things.

To breathe in the stream of life.

And I'm wondering... Is it really you who creates through being alive? Or is it Life who creates through you?

Love,
Ram

Die in each moment

One day, almost one year ago, I was meditating in Amma's Darshan. Feeling my heart healing and opening. Feeling alive inside. In that precious moment of aliveness I asked God how can I hold it inside. He answered... Die in each moment.

These words resonate within, now as fresh as then... Gently looking in my heart I see there are some old feelings, few old dreams, some old significant others, some old words and old deeds that it's time to let go to. I guess there's no room for old in Now, isn't it?

There is beauty, warmth and easiness in letting go with gratitude. It brings a light flavor of grace and benediction.

The heart knows there are no strings when it comes to love.

Love,
Ram
