Dancing in the Now: Falling into the game of Mastery

Falling into the game of Mastery

My fears have always limited me:
- Fear that I will become trapped in the role of leader or master and end up abusing others from this role.
- Fear that if I have money and power these will isolate me from living fully in the now, from facing the pains of living as a person in nature, and so inhibit my growth.

On Friday evening with Sofía and Salvador I found myself falling into the role of master. I was blessing Salvador and freeing him from mental struggle of finding a spiritual path. I was giving him a magic experience of feeling loved in the NOW.

But I was doing it from a humble and humorous place. I surprised myself. I had felt this role as serious and a burden, but now suddenly it was something easy, light, a game to be played, a role I could play 100% for a while and then let go of completely, without attachment.

What a liberation! I laughed all the way home, and for the following 24 hours. This now frees me to really shapeshift.... to allow the master in me without fear of entrapment and to relax into abundance without the fear of this isolating me from God.
But I cannot 'plan' these magic moments of mastery or abundance. That would still come out of my fearful attempts to control the future. When I let go into trusting the Great Spitit in the NOW, then I find what I need in each moment.

Dance the crisis

Art of now

Human crisis happens within a context. The contexts we live in are a complex balance of our personal beliefs, our emotions, our body and our relationships. But our personal context lives, grows and dies within a wider complex balance of thought, emotion, the economy, the earth & its ecology, our family history and other cultures on our planet.

Much human thought and action is based on the idea that we can know the 'mind of God'. We have believed that we can control the complex web of life in our favour. Crisis is, and always has been, an opportunity for change and learning. But in western cultures we try and isolate ourselves from pain and change with: anaesthetics, insurance policies, prisons, walls, security systems, drugs, border police, institutions, plastic surgery and so on.

These attempts to control or separate ourselves from the pains of life usually displace the crisis: some having the benefits of this control and others suffering the pains. And indeed every day, trying to control our pains, we eliminate elements of this complexity (plants, animals, species, earth resources, cultures, languages, …). Our global ecology, economy, demography and relationships are now being stretched to their limits.

We simple humans do not know how to solve this crisis. Our priests, politicians, economists, industrialists and other so called authorities are as lost as most of the rest of us. We cannot know the depth of complexity involved in this global dynamic balance. We need to ask for help from greater spiritual authorities.

This is Dancing in the Now. Only by moving beyond our comfort zone in the Now to fully feel the pains of our crisis we begin to wale up and feel again. In this way we receive guidance on how to move and act. It cannot be found through thinking and planning.
