THE WISDOM OF MOTHER NATURE

The extent of your personal responsibility is far reaching and reveals forever new aspects, because it is part of life which in itself appears to be endlessly intricate and varied.
You might not always be aware of it, but what you chose to look at, the way and the set of mind in which you are viewing that which you have chosen to observe is an entirely personal choice. Your view of the world, of yourself and of your life, is a reflection of your personal set of mind. However in order to be able to claim this power and the appendent responsibility, you have to first become consciously aware of your personality self, its thoughts, feelings and sensations. Because until you have reached this stage in your personal development of consciousness, your reactions and actions in life and to life happen mostly unconsciously and thus you are unable to direct your gaze and your reactions to what it is meeting. In this way you are often believing yourself to be a helpless victim of your personal perceptions, whereas in a conscious state the power is all yours.
I personally see the time of late autumn in Mother Nature an especially suitable time to practise personal awareness of one's exterior world. If you succeed in it, it is most rewarding because it makes you see the beauty and the light in a time of the year when viewed superficially only, the beauty and the life in Mother Nature is fading and disappearing.
Do you wish to see the low grey skies, the dying leaves on the ground, bemoan the chilly, rainy days and the weakening, sinking sun on the horizon? Or would you rather admire the meadows glittering in silvery hues from the raindrops and first freeze, the warmly glowing colours of the last leaves on the trees and cherish the early nightfall in order to enjoy early restful nights in the cosy warmth of your bed?
In autumn, Mother Nature is exploding for the last time in joyous colours in order to remind us that to seemingly die to the world is actually a time to celebrate. Also, the reds, orange, browns and golden yellows are reflecting the colours of our lower chakras and thus acting as a reminder that in the coming months it is the time of the year to work on one's foundation, roots and purpose of self in life. The time for family and home-coming to the light and the love glowing at the centre of your being. Just like the sap in the tree, which is receding into the innermost heart of the trunk.

ALWAYS A WAY

There is always a way out of any situation in life. If at times you feel there is none it is because you are staring straight ahead believing to be infallibly sure of your next step. Instead of allowing yourself the possibility to turn around a walk back a few steps from whence you came from and simply observe your prior position from this little distance. Or to look left and right instead of believing there is only one possible direction in which it is possible to walk in - or that you must go that way and no other for some reason.

TRUE SPIRITUALITY

True spirituality is a 24/7 task and not a weekend occupation to be enjoyed at leisure. Contrary to the view the purely materialistically minded individuals take, to be spiritual does not imply one dodges life's responsibilities. In fact, the opposite is the case. To turn one's steps towards the spiritual pathway in life is a sign of inner strength and means that one is finally willing to grow up and accept one's responsibilites. However atuning your-self to the Divine Light and reaching out to the spiritual heights does not have the immediate effect of instilling eternal light-heartedness and blissfulness in your heart and mind (- although the media are doing their best to promote this idea). In order to attain to such a state of Being, fortitude, endurance and faith are required, because along this pathway there are personal shadows to be faced and many a dark wilderness of the soul to be traversed. Especially at the onset of the spiritual path of Light it may appear ...

NATURAL SHARING

We are all part of an integrated whole and as such share our unconscious as well as our conscious aspects of self. To be blissfully living with our self and in the world transforms us to channels of love, peace and freedom. Therefore, in being consciously aware of the moment and its beauty we are naturally and effortlessly sharing with everyone that, which is most precious in life - love.
