THE ROOT OF IT ALL

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , /by

Analyzing negative thought patterns is helpful sometimes, but they are never the root of it all. These thoughts are just an expression of the old familiar belief that there is something missing, or wrong with you. The root of it all is You. And this ‘You’ is not a thought or belief. It is not something to agree, or disagree with. It is not something to become, or to doubt. It is the whole, spacious freedom that you have always been, even if thought imagines, or insists otherwise.

SLOWING DOWN

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , , /by
 As most of you already know, I am now about 7 months pregnant. Over the next few months, I am taking some time to slow down, and just be with what is happening with my body, our baby, and our beautiful little family.

Although I won’t be traveling or holding more meetings or intensives until August, I am offering a limited number of online private sessions until mid April. If you would like to arrange these, please see: https://www.die-to-love.com/wp/dive-in/online-private-sessions/
I will also be continuing with our Monthly Themed Webinars as long as it feels good to do.
During these ‘slow’ few months, Robert, will continue to post here on Facebook,Youtube, and our website. And Nicola, my assistant, will continue to respond to emails at: admin@die-to-love.com

WAKING UP TO REALITY

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

Perhaps it’s time to wake up to reality. This reality might not fit your ideas about how ‘awakening’ should be. It does not give you any great reward, and is not necessarily comfortable. It might actually be painful to acknowledge what is really here. But the reality of what is really here, is where you are at right now. It’s like admitting that, yes this is what is happening now – whether I’d like to be more enlightened, or non-dual, or anything else. Throwing out all ideas about how it should be or could be, this is actually the truth of this human right now.

I AM NOT ANY PARTICULAR EXPERIENCE

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

We are usually so fixated on experience that we assume that when there is a so-called ‘good’ experience, that that means that ‘I am a good person’, and when there is a so-called ‘bad’ experience, that that means ‘I am a bad person’. Thought doesn’t know who am I, so it looks to the play of experience for the answer. But experience keeps changing. We keep looking for our identity in what happens, rather than seeing that who we really are is that that is aware of the whole play of experience without exception.

LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

We long to be truly met, and to merge with the other. We long to be seen as the Love that we really are, and to lose ourselves completely in that, all the while knowing that it is safe, and that the other will love us unconditionally no matter what we do, say or feel. However, in most human relationships, we live in fear more than the Love we really are. We have been hurt before, so we protect ourselves. We hold back and do not give everything that we would so love to receive. We assume that it is not safe to let down our boundaries, so we play power games where winning provides an illusion of safety. We wait for the other to provide safety (and blame them if they don’t), before we risk opening up. It is a painful roller-coaster of highs and lows, of getting temporary experiences of love, and then losing them…
What you really long for, has to start with yourself. You can not wait for the other to open up. You can not forever point the finger at the other, and avoid looking at yourself. You have to courageously take the first step to let down the walls of protection. You have to risk losing the power games, and even risk losing the relationship. It is the only way to meet, and be met, in the Love that you truly are.

PEACE

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

When we say that we are searching for peace, we usually imagine that peace means the absence of agitation, discomfort or thought. However, if you chase this kind of temporary peace, it is just an endless chasing. When you live as a human in this world you will never be able to hold onto a permanent state of peace that is not disturbed by the occasional human sensation, emotion or thought. But the real Peace, is when you no longer need or care about these temporary experiences of peace. When you know the Peace that does not depend on an experience of any kind, you know that this Peace can not be held onto, but it also can not be lost.
