SHEEP OR EAGLE?

The higher a mountain is, the further you can see, once you have actually climbed on top of it. The darker a night is, the brighter seems the light on the following day. And it it exactly the same with personal situations of crises. Each trial contains the possibility for personal transformation - provided, the situation is being lovingly recognized as part of the self, consciously faced and mastered.  This becomes possible once personal identification with the "problem" is being surrendered in favour of a wider, non-personal perspective of the situation.
To give you a metaphor: a hedgerow, which to a grazing sheep appears like an insurmountable obstacle and like the end of its reality, the eagle high up in the sky is able to recognize as a local phenomenon and can furthermore see, that the closed in pasture is merely a little dot in the landscape. If the sheep were in conscious contact with the eagle, it would be able to see its visible reality in relation to the greater reality.
The sheep in the pasture is a symbol for the the Ego, the eagle for the Higher Self. Each human being is besides his "sheep-existence" simultaneously also an eagle inside. Actually his true self is the eagle and the sheep is only a part he has taken on in order to gain experiences on earth. In order to be able to discover your own eagle-part inside of you, you only have to let go your identification with the Ego/sheep-part. Doing so, will open up an your inner space within your consciousness in which you can become an uninvolved observer of you own "Me"(sheep).

If your consciousness is burdened and obscured by feelings, thoughts and impressions of the senses arising unconsciously and/or personal identification with them, you will feel the restrictions of time and place weighing heavily upon you and your daily existance. Whereas if your consciousness is highly atuned to the reality of Divine Light, Love and Truth, it casts no more tangible reflections in the mirror of time and place. Time and place, having thus lost their substance for you, will become a reality which no longer hinders your Spirit's progress in this world of matter. Living in the eternal Now and having realized the power lying therein, you have become its master. Divine Love, Light and Truth only exist in here-now. Therfore, identification with your thoughts...

LOVE THE DARKNESS

Without darkness light cannot be perceived as light. And regarding Nature, without Winter there would be no Summer, without rain and sunshine no growth. When it the periods of darkness outside are growing longer as the year is approaching the winter solstice, do not complain but rather take the opportunity to look for the light shining inside of you. And to practise your vision of the etheric light that is surrounding living things and beings - even in darkness. The "dark" season of the solar year, when the nights are longer than the days, is the time for internal growth, development of the inner vision of (Divine) light. If you do not follow this natural shift of energy of your own accord, personal conditionings are becoming felt as over-powering and you are experiencing depression/ stress/mood-swings/frustration etc. Take Mother Nature for your ideal. She is showing us that Autumn time is the time to let go of external things and to withdraw into yourself and to increasi...
