HELP, PEACE and FORMLESS LOVE

Help, Peace, and Formless Love are recipes for compassion and the healing of our planet and humanity.  Peace is a state of mind that every person desires to have at one point or another.  In order to have an experience of peace we must lift the veils of delusion and implement this timeless formula.  Think about it, where and when was the last time you experienced peace?  Did the quest leave you like a mouse after cheese in a maze of twists, turns, dead ends and long corridors?  How does peace show up in your life and how much of it will you allow yourself to have?  

My name is Karen and I’ve been working in the Healing Arts as an Intuitive for several years.  I am grateful for the opportunity to experience a reality that many people pay little attention to, let alone base their whole lifestyle around.  I would like to share my observations with you about Peace, and how each of us, alone or as a community, can embody what some have experienced as “The Light” and I have experienced as “Peace”.  To answer any of these questions objectively we must look at a few things; the difference between what it means to be emotional, and what it means to feel, what it means to project and transfer energy, and how the element of surprise affects our ability to hold or contain peace and love.  This understanding enables one to break away from the attachments which are perceived as part of an identity that is separate from each other and the Universe.

First, let me explain the difference between emotions and what it means to feel. 

Emotions are along the lines of what the Taoist refers to as yang energy.  To emote is an act of doing something therefore it is placed in the realm of masculine energy.  This concept of emotions is not gender specific in that it can be experienced by both men and woman as it is part of what we all do in reaction to what we feel.  Feeling on the other hand comes from a place of Surrender and receptivity and is considered the Taoist yin energy or feminine aspect of creation.

Next is to define Projection and Transference as an exchange of the thoughts and ideas accumulated through emotional interaction which are then projected onto another at any given moment.  This causes a mirror effect among those who are involved.  This reality influences the whole foundation for what we as humans experience and call life. 

The projection and transference of energy, particularly Love energy, placed solely and objectively into the hands of God (Source) with gratitude and respect is a formula for surrender.  To then hold this (Love) energy in the highest light, no matter how or in who it shows up is the next step in taking charge over what the eyes see or ears hear.  It attunes us to what the heart feels.  Once identification of the heart emotion is experienced, release of our initial impressions formed by our five senses resolves into a peaceful bliss or what I call “Formless Love”.

Then there is the element of Surprise.  Our life experience is a co-creation between our ideas and the object of our ideas.  How we react to unexpected events or surprises can either inhibit or aid us in our quest for Peace.  Ask yourself some questions like where does your sense of love get put when faced with the element of surprise?  Do you cast love out onto a person when in crises?  Do you resort to your inner sanctuary as a way to burry your emotions?

The September 11 terrorist attack, the Tsunami in Thailand, or the Hurricane in New Orleans are a few examples of how surprise has influenced how we hold Love and Peace. The sudden death of a loved one, or the abandonment of a child are surprises that trigger energy surges that can leave a person or community  in awe or shock and truly test where our Love gets placed.   No matter how these surprises show up in your life or how they may threaten Peace all we can really do is tune in or tune out to them.  It’s the degree we attune that gives us a clue to our experience of Peace.

To help Peace exist we must learn to love without attachment.  This includes the breakdown of our ideas and the lifting of our conclusions or stereotypes we may have about what or who is affecting us.  Look at what affects your peaceful state and how it may be tied to your identity.  Pull back the layers and you may notice the reality of any given moment changes with the perspective you give it.   It is often thought that if we can find the right perspective we can find peace of mind.  The truth is our search often leaves us feeling separate (better or worse than) and disconnected from the object of our attention.

 The feeling that we are some how separate from each other comes out of a gripping fear that we may be taken over by a force that we don’t understand and may even be influenced by it.  Human beings share this fear and use this ability to stereotype and judge people and situations as a way to discern a reality that conforms to a comfort level that feels familiar.  This fear of the unknown or fear of loosing something is actually movement away from motivation and growth.  We are always free to choose but how many choices do you think you have?   

To conclude Help Peace and Formless Love is more than a recipe for a peaceful state of mind.  It is a formula for healing our families, our communities and humanity.  It’s a reality that can influence the whole foundation for what we as humans experience and call life.  To understand our part in projection and transference of thoughts and ideas as well as how we deal with the element of surprise are clues to how we hold Love and Peace in our hearts and in our minds. 

 To help peace exist we must learn to love without attachment.  This requires us to pull back the layers and notice the reality of any particular moment changes with the perspective we give it.  Our life experience is a co-creation between our ideas and the object of our ideas.  It is often thought that if we can find the right perspective we can find Peace.  This is not the case rather an ability to stereotype and judge situations that conform to a personal comfort level which can actually stunt our emotional growth and leave us feeling separate, better or worse than, and disconnected from the object of our attention.

 As an advocate for Peace in the world I encourage you to put this formula through the test in your own life.  Be observant about how you experience unconditional love and compassion.  Look at the health of these concepts in you and realize the true fight lies within waiting to be faced alone, unashamed with courage and perseverance.  As Van Morrison put it “When my Heart can do my thinking and my Head begins to feel, that is when I can look at the world anew and know what’s truly real.
