about Choices to Change
One Soul
There is but only one soul and we are all part of it. We are
all disconnected parts trying to get back to that oneness. Imagine,
One soul, as Master of the universe, absolute in all of creation,
in expanding illumination and love, bursting forth with love and
light, allowing each designated part of her soul to split off
so she can experience herself through us. We are that same love
and light. We are one with her.
One soul, one life, one experience. All souls are light beings
of that one soul. We do shine and we do have powers that emanate
from that oneness. The purpose of this soul is to grasp the wisdom
of its oneness and connection to everything and everyone.
For some, it’s easy, for others it’s piecemeal. Nevertheless,
it’s a process, a wonderful journey upon which we embark
to identify and honor who we are. In the grand scheme of things,
we once knew who we were. With each incarnation, we acquire more
remembrance of that wisdom. We are coming out of amnesia. We continue
to do this until we fully realize and remember that we are one
with the Universe and all it contains. We keep doing this until
we become incarnate with that oneness in totality.
The Universe is a mighty magnet, drawing us near until we attach
ourselves from whence we came. We incarnated to explore and commit
to memory that we are. We get to do that with the choices we make.
We cannot remember who we are until we experience who we are not.
Remembering our truth takes some time. We get to encounter all
of the events of life as we choose. We create who and what we
are not, so we can remember who we truly are. We get to play different
roles and wear different masks. William Shakespeare once said,
“All the world is a stage and we are all players.”
We are the director and the producer of our lives.
The journey is a remarkable one. One that takes as long as it
takes for us to remember. We may get to come back and do this
over, or, we may choose to not come back. We may choose to remember
everything in one lifetime. It all depends on you and how you
choose to reclaim that oneness.

Water - Colour Being
I stood there alone,
watching the cadmium yellow sun,
rise over a thousand miles from home
the energy shone on me,
interpreted by my eyes.
I stood there alone,
looking down from the patchy-green
mountain, below a plain
listening to a wind-chime,
its melodic tinkling drone
mingled with voices, hushed,
sounding the same.
I stood there contemplating life.
The water with its ultramarine blue hue.
In this moment there is no strife
when you accept me and I accept you.
Being me is a watercolour of sensual feeling.
Right now, I stand here as rich as those who see
like a mirror reflecting and fleeting in time,
like love universal, for eternity.
I am home, being, now, this is I.
- Iain Crawford
Reiki
Put aside the mind.
Enter the heart of silence
and know it...
Beyond the mind
the flaming torch dwells.
Embrace it...
Purify in its Light...
Consumed in its fire
Become the torch
whose flames warm all.
Come together
Renewed
With vision....
Reiki Energy Medicine
lights all paths....
Blesses, heals
in silence.
Giving birth to itself
in stillness
And wonder...
My brothers and sisters
Of the one Light yet many,
Let us drink from the cup together...
Love, Songbird
Divine Order
The source of the sound
Whispers in the wind,
or roars with waves swept
Rushing in storm fury.
The source of the flame
Ignites the fire
with inspiration
Warm soft, strength is ever
given by the earth's core.
Passion coiled deep within
Rises upward to
the unconditional heart.
Then soars upward in bliss
The unknowable,
Part of the breath of Life,
A spark in the flame
Joining with spirit
The rainbow dances
On Individual levels
Of awareness
Within and without
We reach upward
Always seeking.
Each time confronted
By a new moment
A new reality,
Rising in glory
Spiraling in progress
- Carolyn Maloney
Unlimited
Waking passions and energy expand the
reality of Daylight into creativity.
Dreams and images of the night cross
the boundaries of time and imagination.
The soul is not limited by reality,
only the images of itself being bound.
Would that all awareness be unlimited and unchained
Free upon the wind to pass wherever destiny leads
One moment into another, always progressing,
Fading away the tomorrows into yesterdays.
Leaving the joys and moments shared in reality,
Into remembrances and fantasy,
Untouched by time.
Fear and its demons,
always present and demanding
created the word REGRET.
The awareness of Regret being the
Realization of the LIMITATIONS we set.
- Carolyn Maloney
Where reality is
Streaks of sunlight pour over a darkening sea
Outlining clouds in molten silver.
While the sun sinks in silent mystery
behind the horizon.
It's the time of quiet breezes,
Of waves that whisper their
Souls on beaches made of gold.
The solitude, the gentle peace
Wash over me. Facing the setting sun
taking a deep breath, I lose myself.
I blend into the surrounding quiet,
Whisper in the waves and swirl
Joyously in the breezes, becoming
Part of the natural innocence and
Simplicity that is.
By losing myself in the greater reality,
I understand that life is only how its
Perceived.
The only name reality has is the one we give it.
- Carolyn Maloney
Dedication
What is this test that lies before me?
To empty myself and fill myself with pure love....
To heal all life with deep compassion
Guided by transcendent wisdom and infinite Light
That spirals beyond dimensions into infinity...
- Songbird
With Compassionate Wisdom
"Only when the ' I ' is silent
can the work be done"
- Songbird
On Love
Love takes you back to your self,
on the wings of relationship
Soaring ever higher you dive
deeper into yourself.
- Mari
Night Sky
Crickets chirp...
The moon casts light over the lake
In my heart, stillness and awe
Dissolving ephemeral illusions
- Songbird
Now I walk
Falling the descent
through the shadows left behind.
The memories of pain,
and dreams planted at sunrise
Birthing suns day and wind songs night.
From seeds once none and words lost.
Waking ray's way
Speaking the sight
Now I walk
- David Carter
Reiki & Infinity
Renewing and rejuvenating
descends the LIGHT from Heaven
in all its glory
unfathomed, unlimited, unrestrained
to heal the mankind..........
Energy pure & divine
harmonizing and balancing
to heal the WORLD of
all its pain & sufferings
Its INNATE power
unwinding itself mysteriously
to heal the mankind of
all its physical, mental,
emotional maladies
Kindling the flame of
unconditional LOVE & COMPASSION
It is twice blessed
blesses him that gives & him that takes
to the realm of bliss & fortitude
Inspiring intrinsically
removing all barricades
between one and another
healing beyond time and space
returns to infinity.
- V. N. Mittal
PEFKOS
La mer écrite en majuscules,
La pieuvre du soleil,
La distance engloutie,
Le temps abandonné,
La mer sur un ciel renversé,
Les lourdes strates d¹azur chinées d¹opale et
de vert,
L¹échange des couleurs,
L¹échange des odeurs,
Le sel qui bar sous les poignets,
La mer dans la forêt des songes.
Sur un agencement de magiciennes voix,
Je serai seule à le savoir.
Il faudra se laisser aller,
Dériver doucement jusqu¹à un seuil d¹écumes
Où l¹appel qui n¹appelle pas,
Où le souffle qui n¹est pas souffle
Nous donneront une autre couche.
Au c¦ur de la géométrie du
temps
Apparaîtront les suprêmes secrets.
Nous reviendront,
Les poches pleines de sel et d¹or.
- Martine Silvestre Skyros, July 2002
PEFKOS
The sea written in capitals,
The octopus of the sun,
Distance absorbed,
Time relinquished,
The sea on a sky turned upside down,
Heavy azure strata streaked with opal and green,
The relay of colours,
The relay of smells,
Salt throbbing like a pulse,
The sea in the forest of dreams.
From this staging of magicians¹ voices,
I alone will know this.
We must let ourselves go,
Drifting gently towards a foaming threshold
Where the call that calls not
Where the breath that breathes not
Will give us another skin.
At the heart of time¹s geometry
Will stand revealed the supreme secrets.
We shall return,
Our pockets filled with salt and gold.
Translated by Nigel Gearing.
The joy of giving
So much love inside my heart
joyous, like a pop-up card
at times it even overflows
look at me, I guess it shows
so much splendor from inside
a marvel I don't want to hide
feels like floating on a cloud
and I feel so very proud
to be sharing this with you
honest, I don't have a clue
why the Universe gave me this
it's a heavenly, wonderful bliss
that out of millions, it was me
the lucky, chosen one to be
the other half of your bright soul
my broken heart, you made it whole
now I can fly above all pain
light as a feather, no more rain
and I want nothing in return
cause real love, as I had to learn
an unconditional source of light,
makes me feel so warm inside
there is so much tender love
guided from a force above
by loving you I'm loving me
the biggest gift of all, you see
the world just opens up so wide
and makes me look so very bright
and now there is so much to share
all that I have, but no despair
there will always be enough
try it out, it's not so tough
cause a marvelous thing about living
is the very joy of giving...
- Christine Van Der Poorten
Om Mani Padme Hum
(Dedicated to His Holiness Dalai Lama on
his Birthday)
When the lotus on my crown
Spreads its petals opening
To welcome
The healing Light
Descending on me from heaven
And when the warmth of the descended light
Trickles down
Through my senses and my frame
Unstrained and unrestricted
Rejuvenating my spirits, my body and my mind
When my heart beats become slower and slower
The mind is calm
And is at eternal peace
The world around me looks
Glittering in glory with its divine colours
It is then I can hear
The music in my ears
The sound of the sea waves
The birds chirping,
The whispering morning breeze
And of the trees dancing with joy away somewhere
That is my bliss, my ecstasy
My joy, my love, my synergy
My Reiki
My BUDDHA
And my ‘OM MANI PADME HUM’
V. N. Mittal,
05-07-2003
Note: ‘Om Mani Padme Hum ‘ is the supreme Mantra
of the Buddhists. Mani in Sanskrit means the Jewel, Padme means
the lotus .The Lotus stands for Wisdom. According to His Holiness
Dalai Lama,
The powerful Mantra means, “ that in dependence on
the practice which is in invisible union of the method and wisdom,
you transform your impure body and speech into the pure body,
speech and mind of a Buddha.”
