The Highest Calling

The Highest Calling. What does this mean, the highest calling? It means the highest is calling. Rising to a view above the fray. Not settling in the mouth or the genital f you or the fist. Opening to the highest. The highest is a streaming of energies circulating from the crown down through the intellect, through the heart, through the feet to the earth and back up again. This is our spiritual body, our energy body. The highest is calling, needed now more than ever. Inclusive, open, undaunted.

Trifecta

This morning I read from the first chapter of Genesis in both the Chumash (and its commentary) and in the King James translation of the Bible, from the opening lines of the Quran (and its commentary), and from Red Pine's introduction to his translation of the Diamond Sutra. A commonality emerged.

Each of these readings has to do with who we are, with our origin, with our context. Our bodies are formings of this Surge of Creation. Ongoing formings, emerging even now. The Creator and Creation emerged from a no thing, a no when, a no where and immediately began displaying and using certain qualities: an ability to cut through, a radiance of light, an indestructibility. Diamond qualities.

This is where we find enlightenment (a deep knowing of who we are) says Red Pine. Not in the future but in our past. Way back there (which continues unfolding even now). Want to know who you are? Look deep. Deep calls unto deep.

Recon - cilia - tion

"Cilia occur in large numbers on the surface of certain cells, either causing currents in the surrounding fluid, or, in some protozoans and other small organisms, providing propulsion." 

Recon - cilia - tion: Being the recon force (reconnaissance), the advanced scouts, for "causing currents" and "providing propulsion."

Night Revelation

The Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), the New Testament, and the Quran are to be regarded and understood as one Book. Only the inner dimensions of the heart (the heart mind) can do this.

the interflow of knowledge continues

Like Nicodemus I come to Jesus by night. The veil is thinnest between 3 and 4 a.m. Spiritual matters are revealed. Matters of soul and body, of life and death, of love and light, of the differences between open freedom and closed self-absorption, of what heaven is and what hell is. Revelation comes and my heart sings. I pray my heart not be crusted over by the glare of human day. I continue in understanding, thankful.
