The mind and the senses are operating the lens of this definitional construct of self – and so when as Jon says. we accept and open or yield to NOT presuming to know as this conceptually sensed ‘self’ – we are indeed free to learn or receive anew – which is beyond definition, and yet has a reflection in true perspective of a wholeness of being – because it resonates with the true of you – rather than any attempt to validate a concept of you. A concept that becomes limited and defined by oppositional conditioning of what it denies.

Herein is the root of ‘shadow power’ or that which knows not what it does because it operates without conscious acceptance or relationship – regardless that it is set in whatever conditioning imprint it seems to react to and re-enact that imprinted scenario.

To truly incarnate is to em-Body the Spirit through the Will as the Heart. There is no separation or conflict here – no part to denigrate and rise above or judge evil or oppositional. No divide and rule; a true individuality.

Yes there are subtler forms of embodiment but what makes form true is congruence with its function. If form is used to hide in or project fixed meanings onto – then there is a use of form other than for communication and this generates dissonance as an experience of separation and disconnection.

The whole is in every part and all the parts are in the whole with none truly apart. This makes no sense to the partiality of a separate self sense that identifies over and against the other and is unaware of the whole.

The Infinite Whole and the finite or specific focus in-formation are not separate unless of course one defines oneself in such a way as to identify exclusively with form to the forgetting of the whole. Thus the shift of remembering is one of perspective and not waiting on time or change.

Being willing to open or call forth the embrace of a greater perspective is through a honesty of self-acceptance that embraces and transcends a redeemed or re-contextualized sense of self and world.

The attempt to fit the New Wine into the ‘old paradigm’ is a crafty way of persisting in forgetting while seeming to be in a process of remembering or spiritual awakening. All forms can be used for deceit while there is any sense of value or meaning in doing so – by any facet of one’s being. Spiritual forms can seem to be very righteous and humanity has engaged in and suffered this kind of elitism of self-specialness in its concept and its shadow – without often connecting that they are one thing.

“We must not only cut asunder the snare of the mind and the senses, but flee also from the snare of the thinker, the snare of the theologian, and the church builder, the meshes of the Word, and the bondage of the Idea. All these are within us waiting to wall in the spirit with forms; but we must always go beyond, always renounce the lesser for the greater, the finite for the Infinite, we must be prepared to proceed from illumination to illumination, from experience to experience, from soul state to soul state. Nor must we attach ourselves even to the truths we hold most securely, for they are but forms and experiences of the Ineffable who refuses to limit itself to any form or expression.”
