January 2023 The joy of being and not "having" doesn't mean staying still and doing nothing. You can do that if you want, of course. But we're incarnated beings, incarnated in matter, evolving in matter. Our meaning is bound to action in matter. Our meaning is in the moving of matter. Otherwise, we wouldn't have an incarnation. We have abilities. And they call us to actions. Switching from "being" to "having" describes this tipping point in life where the place from which you take actions changes completely. The motor behind your actions swtiches to its opposite: Instead of taking actions out of lack / desire for "completion" / "need", you take actions on the sole basis that these actions excite you. You feel enthusiastic about them, you're attracted to their doing. Not their outcome. You drop many previous actions because you're not interested in any outcome anymore. You now pick actions whose Doing is exciting and that you want to do for the only sake of doing them. Let me rephrase this : you don't do them to "get" something out of them. Yes. Which might currently be the motive behind every single one of your actions: their outcome. Meaning a thing. But pleasure from things is pleasure from thoughts and is very shallow - absolutely not worth chasing. In fact, it's even more general than that : you don't try to "get" anything anymore in your life. Never. Because you truly feel that you don't need anything anymore! You realized that you were made complete from the get-go, that you've been brainwashed by a crowd movement to pursue stuff AS IF you needed it and, above all, that no "thing" that you'll then process with thoughts (about this thing) will ever compare to the joy of following your Excitement. It feels like you "let" things happen. Through you. [1] Because Excitement feels like an auto-generated motion where you're just the passenger. And it is, my friend, the most BEAUTIFUL ride of your life. This is what your DREAM is. Don't look no further, stop trying to "define" your Dream. Your Dream life is not an idea, not a mental vision of some fixed reality. Your Dream life is the continual unfolding of moments that fill you up from the inside to the brim, to the point where you could'nt even think that so much joy was possible to experience. To the point that you overflow. To the point where the words are lacking to describe the bliss of what you're experiencing. I, myself, had to use an image once of shedding "golden tears", trying to describe this feeling. This is the problem in your life when you live it that way: finding words to express how incredibly blissful your life is. :) The image of a recipient, of a "cup", is a good one for that matter. Following your Excitement every "Now" with no self-judgement is a stream that "fills your cup" up to the brim and beyond. Way beyond just the brim. You're "overflowing". This overflow is creativity or God operating through you. Life. Can be. EXTREMELY GOOD. But nobody told you so. Because, sadly, very few experienced it! Notes [1] The joy of being is the joy of being aligned. And being aligned leads you to take many actions. They flow through you because you've aligned the "pipe".
