A moment fully tasted - Resisting nothing


 A complete experience of the present moment.. 

 

That is what embodiment is.. 

 

Its a fully felt, fully tasted, fully savoured moment 

 

And that is a practice.. 

 

There is one question that is worth asking oneself in ever moment 

 

'Am I Opening or Closing to this moment?' 

 

Are you surrendered to what life is presenting through you?Or is there a resisting and closing into story, thought, physical tightness?

Subtle or gross

 

Resistance is an innate part of life

 

We will meet it 

 

Resistance is a default of human 

 

To maintain the sense of self 

 

Embodiment is a practice of our relationship with this moment 

 

Resistance and collapse - or choosing love/consciousness and opening 

 

 

Several times a day I am recognizing myself closing to moments that are appearing

 

Sometimes very obvious closing and sometimes In sneaky ways like thought, or making myself busy with something

 

To avoid feeling,

 

I choose thought

 

To protect myself..

 

Not feeling or being fully is what the Buddha called being a sleep

 

The notion that the future will arrive, gives us the sense that I am going somewhere

 

When I achieve this love, this amount of money, this body yada yada I will have the peace I desire 

 

It creates a future, which we live by 

 

The masculine in us asks 'What problem am I going to solve today?'

 

It is something els to let go and be in this moment fully 

 

And that is embodiment

 

Earlier today I was cleaning a space for preparing a ritual 

 

Two out the four of us that was preparing the space was not there

 

I found myself questioning if I owed it to myself to be in resistance to them, being out eating ice cream 

 

And asked myself this question.. 

Am I opening or closing to this moment? And what do I actually want.. 

I choose to embody and thus incarnate in this moment as being in service.. 

And asked how could serve this moment to love fully.. 

 

And did..And guess what, it felt great..It was a dawning moment, and a teaching I have been with for the past couple of weeks..'Am I opening? or closing..?' 

 

Are you embodied in this moment fully or are you protecting yourself subtly or gross 

 

 

In service of love
