Beltane and Eternity

“You are not IN the universe, you ARE the universe, an intrinsic part of it. Ultimately you are not a person, but a focal point where the universe is becoming conscious of itself. What an amazing miracle.”  - Eckhart Tolle from "A New Earth"

 

As Samhain is about honoring Death, Beltane, its counter part, is about honoring Life. And so is the cycles of life eternal, a balance between the light and the dark. The opposite of death is actually not life, but birth.... something I learned from Eckhart Tolle. Life is eternal. Eternity is now and we do not die but transform from one form to another...from human back to mother Earth to feed new life. When this new life rises from death it is like the phoenix rising from the ashes and becoming again. Consciousness and being are one in the same. This is the Cosmic existence all of us are eternally bound to.

 

 

The Universe in You

Beautiful Earth

Cosmic Ride

The world is just a ride...this existence is but a ride. An idea conveyed by the comedian Bill Hicks in the video below shortly before he died at a young age.... Within the transformation of eternal matter through the infinity of time moving through forms we are on a cosmic ride. Death is just a change in forms; going back to the matter you were before you were born. We are made of ancient matter that never dies, just moves from energy into matter...into things like trees and us. 

As Spring reaches its midpoint during Ostara, night and day come together in perfect balance for a moment. Nature is full of balances and opposites - it is just how this world is on this plane of existence. And nature is an accountant that has to balance the books over time...just as death is a balance for new life. So during Ostara we are like a crowd on a roller coaster at the top of the track...reaching a point during the equinox when we reach balance again and will soon be transforming again into new seasons like Spring. A season for Mother Earth to have new growth and new life. 
 

 

Connections

“Principles for the Development of a Complete Mind: Study the science of
art. Study the art of science. Develop your senses- especially learn how to
see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.”
