Breathe In The Face Of Fear
February 15, 2007 at 5:26 am | In Journal Entry |Do you know how to breathe properly?
In my travels day to day I notice that the majority of people I meet do not breathe with intention and ease. The labored breathing patterns of humans I have witnessed are not an isolated and random event. At the time of this awakening one knows such disconnection from our breath to be a phenomenon in an alarming pandemic pattern. The world at large seems to be holding our collective breath as if before some spiritual plunge.
Only recently have many of you begun to notice this among our Earth brothers and sisters. You may also know, as awareness of seemingly new trends and human nuances comes individually to the forefront of thought, that the event is not something entirely new. One becomes with the awareness fully engrossed with the idea that thousands of years has the human family been holding our collective breath in deep spiritual slumber.
What can we do about this? What are the repercussions of such a “fall”? How is the world we know been influenced and forged by the unintentional dreams of unconscious denizens? And why have the answers and truth been omitted and erased for so long when cooperation not slavery is our highest goal?
We could spend a lifetime pondering and acting out conspiracy in our mind for purposes no other than justice in hindsight; or we could take the reigns for a new truth: That inside us is the power and presence of fearless and infinite co-creative ability.
Marianne Williamson wrote a beautiful truth that when understood is the simplest explanation for such a history of somnambulation and causes us to fully comprehend the urgency and necessity of this awakening. “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us”. How succinct and profoundly inherent is this truth. The time for blame and finger pointing is representative of an outmoded consciousness that we find daily does not work toward our blossoming. What once was a recurring nightmare is no longer. What is the old makes now its way for the new and exciting world of collective human consciousness.
Now is the time for a follow-up question: Do you know how to breathe properly? If one watches one’s breathing patterns and patiently discerns the source, the frequency and depth, myriad conclusions one will arrive at regarding ones own level of present sleep. There is a trick here. If we were to discover we are holding our breath it is at this moment an awakening occurs and spiritual lethargy dissipates. In this moment fear, excessive thought, doubt and an entire host of lackluster emotions and self inflicted fetters all become irrelevant and melt away in a fragrant flowering.
In short one of the most profound spiritual practices and human obligations to oneself, one’s community and this Earth family is to become aware of our breath in every wakeful moment.
In the moments that an individual begins to shine many things can happen. Always there is a response from the Earth and our fellow humans in reaction to such a spiritual solar flare.
The Earth of course reacts ever as the flawless and unconditional lover; patient and wise and most of all non-judgmental and infinitely supportive.
The man next door, next tribe, next sect, cult, next set of beliefs is often violently opposed to the light of truth we shine. This is merely more of the old ways clinging to fear, greed and control and has no particular hold upon the choice we must make now to regain spiritual sovereignty.
What we must do despite such opposition and unbelief in oneness is to uphold the breath and face the fear head-on. With continued micro awakenings and increased awareness of the quality and consistency of our smooth and relaxed breathing pattern, a tipping point will be reached and the Earth will one day become the beacon of peace and prosperous abundant enlightenment for which we are destined. A web of quality constructed by heart felt communication, acceptance and compassion is now being woven. Differences will no longer divide only serve to strengthen this beautiful bond. Now is the time to face all fears and breathe this life energy back into this human body.
You have the love, the support, the guidance and all the tools you need to make the leap of faith. Do it now without hesitation and I will meet you here with open arms. Let us rejoice and peace be with us.
Love long and prosper,
