Love - Something to Ponder Print E-mail
by Linda King


The love of ‘resting in the heart of the beloved mother’ or ‘bathing in the love and joy of the Divine’ is not what love feels like here. Here in form, that kind of passive love does not exist. Here in form we are pro-active human BE-ings – yes, doing life! That is, we are taking action, in movement, demonstrating love, real and true.  

Sure it’s all love and light in the grand scheme of things. It is all God had to create everything with. My concern is that with descriptions like this, some of us feel like we are not making progress, that we are not ‘feeling’ if it isn’t like these descriptions. It’s simply not the case. I assure you love here does not feel like that and to think it does is adding more illusion- the very thing our role is to unveil.

Are you feeling that ‘blissy’ love? That is the love of higher realms that vibrate much faster than right here in form. That ‘blissy’ love is what we are designed to bring here and ground, by getting a sense of it and breathing it into form. It does not originate here and we can become very disillusioned when we are unable to find it here. If you think that is what unconditional love feels like and that is how you are ‘supposed’ to feel, then unconditional love will elude you.

Even when we feel this love of higher realms and bring it through our 4-body systems into our being here, the feeling, description and expression of it is very different. If you have been a ‘blissy’ love person, it is wise to let go of all expectations of what love should feel like, for it doesn’t feel like anything you’ve experienced here. Don’t believe that you do not love ‘right’ if you don’t feel that bliss.

Grounding love requires mustering great courage and going to places that have long eluded us. These places reveal more of the truth of who we truly are, who we are becoming and the feelings that are felt along the way.  This can feel like absolute agony as the shells around our hearts are broken and torn in order to reveal more truth. Through the tears and vulnerability is a sense of quiet, a peace of home, an expansion – for a moment – and then the breaking open continues as we choose readiness to reveal more of our truth, and on it goes. This is love of the heart and Spirit and it is demonstrated real and true in the living and in the destroying of the old restrictions.

In total freedom you give away your most precious treasure – feeling your heart expand in giving, rather than contracting in losing. You know that with a simple choice the life you have been living, that has felt void of real substance, can contain real substance. You are so over the old that you are prepared to go to places long denied, in order to know who you truly are and to do what you really came here to do. You acknowledge a bigger picture, so large it cannot be contained within your scope of comprehension. You trust in your heart that you are a player, have made the choice, contract, to be here, and now you choose to get over the smallness game you’ve long played, and expand.

This requires getting over being a victim in life, getting over feeling we don’t belong and getting over not wanting to be here. When it is all too hard and we place our attention on not belonging here, we are absolutely being a victim. We are here to be our truth and to show others our truth. In doing so a spark goes off in others, they wake up and remember they are more than they think. They come ‘online’ and undo their illusions and live the truth of their knowing.

It’s not part of the plan to ‘fit in’. The plan is to expand and remember the choice is not up to our little personality, our lower self.  Our small self likes to feel comfortable and taken care of. HINT: Comfortable is not likely in a life of service. If you feel uncomfortable then perhaps you are starting to live the life you were born to live. The personality did not exist when the heart, soul and Spirit signed the contract to come here and play a part. It has nothing to do with the personality being in agreement. The personality wasn’t even born when that choice was made. Why consult it now? It can’t understand, it won’t feel comfortable and it certainly couldn’t be bothered to make the effort!
 
If this Love and bliss is your experience of love then choose to be here now and ground it. Don’t just talk about it and bliss off.   Bring it through the 4-body system and make it real, outside of meditations, in the real day-to-day of integration of body, mind and spirit. Be the truth of who you truly are, a human being on Planet Earth. Until love is lived and breathed it is not real and of no use. Here is where the issues are and this is where the love needs to be grounded. Choose to not be selfish by keeping it in the higher realms and love from the inside out, until the inside is so full that it cannot be contained and will flow freely from the very heart centre.

The themes of this universe, in order, are courage and joy. Joy comes from the courage to step forward and consciously choosing to drop the long held layers of illusion like our precious robes of disguise and stand forth naked in truth.  True happiness is a sense of acknowledgment of the God within and the courage to show the God within you to yourself and the world. Feeling the greatest joy of learning is moving through life with courage. Feeling the fear and doing it anyway is expressing and living courageously. The joy of the heart is the experience of comfort zones becoming a thing of the past, in accepting that growth and expansion are not comfortable and can be downright unpleasant. It is about surrendering to a greater truth than is known and understood with the mind or body. It is about surrendering to new ways and accepting that they cannot be experienced until the old is released. It is in accepting that it is you who is choosing to not move past the veils of illusion placed long ago before your seeing, feeling and knowing. It is accepting that now you are ready to know the truth. What is so scary about the truth? If we don’t have the truth we have nothing.

Are you not over hiding from yourself, then complaining that it’s all too hard and ‘if only’………? It is as simple as making the choice: everything is in place to support you as you move into areas of yourself long hidden. If you find that you are moving in cycles, that you have realisations but then days, weeks, or even months later feel stuck again, then you are attempting to know and experience the new without letting go of the old. To BE the new, one must completely let go of the old first– tools and processes* are here to be used. One must have faith and trust in the unknown and unseen, and in letting go of the old. The faith to know that the new will come – do you think the grub knew of butterfly-ness before it underwent its metamorphosis – how could it possibly know life as a butterfly when being a caterpillar?

God doesn’t care what we do on the ground to BE more love. Whatever we feel drawn to do (heart guided not head guided) is fine with her. It is definitely not about getting anyone’s approval. We all have a unique role to play in being who we truly are. Not in doing what we think we should do, what we think is expected of us or how we think we will make God ‘happy’.
Check your Motives and be honest with Self.
