How Oneness Works

[This was first published as my December 2010 Newsletter Message.]

I've moved from hibernation-withdrawal mode to being more aware of my usual state of mental silence and emotional stillness most of the time.

As I described this state to a friend, my spirit explained the following to him which allowed my human self to hear it too :-) "My life now allows me to be in a state of silence, peace and stillness and I'm holding that state on behalf of those who can't do it for themselves because of the demands and responsibilities of their daily life. I hold this quiet space for you to access it more easily when you take the time to slow down and get quiet." 

Later, as I contemplated this statement, I was shown that this is how Oneness works. If all at once, everyone chose to do exactly what is in his or her heart to do, do and be all the things we yearn for . . . one's life would immediately flow together in a state of peace, joy, love, satisfaction, etc. because we would all be in the flow together providing all that we need and receiving all that we desire. "If only" would not exist anymore because we would be doing it - being it - all the time, constantly flowing with perfect synchronicity in and out of the circumstances and connections with others that mutually serve each other's deepest heart desires. Because we haven't made this choice 'all at once' it seems difficult if not impossible to do what is in our heart to do.

Then, as I contemplated the stunning "Blue Daisy" fractal below (creator unknown), I gained a greater insight about the concept of Oneness.

Imagine that the central point of Light is God/Allah/Source of All That Is-Was-Ever Will Be/The Divine. From it radiates expressions - out-breaths and in-breaths - of individual manifestations of universes, worlds, and realities - extending outward in infinite waves and iterations of Light. . . manifestations that have their own existence, direction, size and distance from the Central Source. This distance allows for more diverse experiences in God's infinity yet each point of light, and the darkness surrounding it, remains an expression of Original Source. With that in mind, here's an idea about Oneness . . . Because it vibrates so slowly, the 3-D world we were born into maintains the illusion that we are separate. As we transition to the faster 5th dimensional frequencies (through events like the 01-01-11 Day of Oneness and other practices), we can experience the state called Oneness more easily while still living our individual life. Cool Huh! And the Handel's Messiah - Hallelujah Chorus Flash Mob video (click here to view) is a perfect example of what this state called Oneness feels like when we're in it - and notice how many people have watched it!

May your Holy-days be filled with inner peace, gratitude, joy and love and remember to give yourself to others in ways that nurture your spirit.
