Organic Immersion
  
  
  

In the mindlessness
of Being a Human,
the essential warmth
of Self
emerges.
The need for resourcing
evaporates
into the mists
of source,
of the cresting moment,
of the organic lightness
of Being.

Feel the organic song
arising
as it lifts the load
of duality and scurrying
from the Senses.
Claim this moment
as the purest expression
of Life.  
At one-ce, in Isness.

What would it Be like to immerse one's Self into the still presence?  
If we were to decide to ex-is-t in the alive present moment
giving ourselves the gift of breath awareness?
When I was newer in this incarnation, 
I would tell close friends that my middle name really was "Spontaneous".
This opened the gate
 to clearer freedom 
to act on my deeper impulses 
to go "off-plan".  
To enjoy -- bring in more joy --
to my days, hours, moments.  
Exploring Mother Earth's surroundings 
still keeps a visceral vibrancy
to my Journey 
that allows and invokes 
a deep gratitude 
for my collective Life-Moments.

This particular Song that is You 
carries unique tones within 
that seek organic vibration 
expressed without.
Out here.
Yet, do we dare 
honor immersion 
into the inner Gap 
between what was 
and what could be?

Between regret and anticipation,
Recrimination or striving,
Learning or leaning,
The womb of awareness
The cocoon of calm
The bath of being
Can bring rejuvenating Power,
Exquisite Essence,
tickling and loosening the ties
that strangle
our truest expression.
A beautiful way into this G.a.P. 
-- this Gift and Presence --
is with a tool as organic
as Light...
Our divine life force...
our Breath.  

What are YOUR experiences with organic immersion?....  :-)

When I taught time management in Corporate America, my favorite piece was speaking about allowing for ("building in" was the current nomenclature), "discretionary time".  And I recall having difficulties personally honoring those "time slots" as my internal spontaneity (read: natural awareness to go within for the next moment's response) struggled to break free and express its truth.  The subsequent stress of this w.a.c.k.e.d. (war at core kills, ease dies) way of being brought more dis-ease than I could metabolize.  The war between the Light of Self-love and the dimmer un-inspired Doing drained my soul, cut connection to source and only until I allowed and embraced the moments as perfection would the gauntlets of life loosen their hold on my voice, my breath, my courageous heart.  Now...in this amazing and breath-expanding now... I invite you to see the organic pure Self you are at your still-est...the pure bliss of immersion within your bath of being...and share your amazing Life Gift with, first yourself, then with Us (Unbounded Self).  We are all in this organic immersion together... 

What can you...will you...allow into the moments of your days?   Will I see you in the waves?... 



September's Song
  
Along this Pacific California coast,
beauty captures the piqued eye,
striking sweetly the heart,
inviting the deepest essence.
Tat Tvam Asi...I am that.
A recognition of earth's rhythms
internal yet ringing full
in Autumnal shift...
The refreshing force
of this eternal gift
sharing its flow
in this now...

May's Full Flower Moon


As the rains are cleansing and transforming our sacred Moon ceremony space this month, I still must share what is on my heart about this magical day:

 ~  This Full Flower Moon asks us to "stop and smell the roses", to be in gratitude for the newness of Life, and to notice the blossoming of what is bursting forth from the seeds of our own intentions and essence.  This powerful moon calls for balancing the masculine (lancing old wounds to create...) and the feminine (...harmony, reawakening our intuition), having a foot in both of those worlds, to examine our environments and past emotions surrounding them, for releasing into magnificent endings and embracing new beginnings!  Mmmm, sounds yummy...

      *  EXAMPLE:  As we are relentlessly supported by our Mother offering to us our highest good, this month's postponement could be viewed by "yours truly" for instance, as a gift of FULL focus on a physical move -- scheduled for tomorrow!?! -- to the coast for clarity and transformation.  A truly MAGICAL ending to an existence and location for me that is no longer of mighty use.  Again, fully supported and exquisitely timed by Essence / Source.  Wow.

  ~  More endings and beginnings feel eminent here on this beautiful Earth.  Celebrate, dear Ones, this time of Allowing... Allowing more Love to flow.  Allowing our senses to be honored through Nature's unadorned, exquisite gifts.  Allowing the Light to shine between the cracks of our imperfections.   As the flowers allow the water to rinse away the dust and moisten the earth for growth, I invite us to allow that which is no longer brilliantly useful to and powerfully present for our Life's growth to gently flow / walk / run away.... Yes, if there is running involved, it is a NEEDED release.

      *  EXAMPLE:  However someone may "leave" our life, at their core they may be feeling compelled at various levels (whether aware or not) to change direction and focus on their newest "higher good" plan for all involved on their current journey.  I invite us each to trust this (left brain / masculine) and see the brilliance in (right brain / feminine) their choice.  For THE highest good...

Enough for now as I must resume the releasing project the Universe beautifully set in motion for me!  When I get settled, there will be more shared here about journeying in this unbounded, evolutionary time on our sweet Earth.

Blessings, love, hugs, light and sweet flower awareness to each of you on this powerful day and we will gather next month!  Excited!  :-)

Namaste, L'aura / Lala

What Is Your Truest Treasure?

Resting comfortably within my blessed home surrounded by beautiful decor, I watch 6 minutes of horrendous Tsunami waters destroy and move literally tons of possessions and structures, transforming all sense of belonging(s) to a whispered memory...  My heart remains astonished, in anguish, in awe.  There are no words. So I will borrow Osho's.  In honor of our Japanese brothers and sisters who have lost much from this Tsunami:

The Buddha is your intrinsic nature.  It need not be created.
It has not to develop either, it is already there, it is already the case.
It has only to be unfolded, it has to be [re-]discovered.

The treasure is there; you have to find the key to unlock the door.

The treasure is not to be created, the treasure is not to be developed; 
you have only to find the right key.  You have forgotten about the key, 
the key is within you.        

- Osho from "Be Still And Know"

May you be clear on your truest treasure or essence within. May you share that awareness with each other at this tragic time.  And may know you are held up in light and love by many across this world...

Ayurvedic lunch today

Sitting in a cafe, considering my late lunch options, thoughts swirl around the closest Indian fare here in downtown Campbell... Desiring mild curry fire, veggies and quinoa for maximum metabolic results.  I think I'm making it myself...
