Christ is pure consciousness
Lately I´ve felt an urgent need to pray. Not to pray “for something” to be fulfilled, it is more some kind of urge to show my gratitude for everything leading to this point in my life.
I have never been “religious”. All these priests, exoteric rituals, religious dogma and conduct bores me to death.
Yet, what I feel though, is that Christ is not an imaginary symbol, it is a strong vivid consciousness. These days I kind of felt this very strong. A contact with something inexpressible. Christ not as a name, but as an ineffable Cosmic Presence.
Beyond any doubt, this Loving Presence is an incredible reality. There are some great mystics in the Catholic church like John of the Cross, meister Eckhardt and Teresa of Avila who are said to have witnessed this love.
I begin to get a clue to what they were feeling…Yes, I have been praying, not even knowing to whom I was directing my joy to. I can tell you: this soothing Love transcends any human notion. It has no form, yet It is there, the most reliable reality that exists.
I recommend you strongly The Dark Night of the Soul by John of the Cross, an incredible ageless survey about the inner crisis everybody encounters seeking spiritual redemption. It is an unvaluable map for the one needing guidance.
Just inquire!

I feel un inner urge to express what I see, to communicate and share with others all these impressions. Often the things I see are there, not yet manifest, but waiting... to be observed, talked about, and embraced.
These new insights need another approach, a more vivid curiosity...
Due to fear and prejudice we prefere to see only "the offcial " truth - but THE OFFICIAL TRUTH IS DEAD - being dead, it has nothing to give...
We can continue pretending Death is fascinating or...we can take the trouble to LIVE...
THE NEW has no definition yet...
Again, IT requires another "perception", the courage to apprehend everything differently, from a totally new angle, with new confidence and inquisitive touch. This blogg is not about interesting concepts, it is about participation...finding new solutions, inspiration, togetherness..

There are these necessary losses in life that we all experience in order to grow.
You know, I am sure you can understand this:
I read about that another great mystic Paul of the Cross 1694-1775 went through his Dark Night of the Soul which lasted 45 years…
More or less like me…I´ll see whether mine is over or not…
Smiling.
