Noetic Balancing

Poetry is a lie
Some word
To tell the tale
Of a journey
It could be the fiery depths of hell
Or the ascent of Everest
Simply leave’s dancing in the wind
Mist rising over an ocean
The way frost appears
Growing fantastical beautiful spires
From nowhere
As if by magic
And so the words appear
English professors didn’t teach this mind
The Light inside each atom
Precipitates each word
The mystery has decided
This is a worthy way
To expose itself to the world

Spiritual Practice and Leadership
A spiritual practice that works has a sneaky way of leading us into leadership. This morning I am considering all that leadership requires is to get up and get going and do whatever it is that you do.
I'm aware that my spiritual teacher, see John-Roger's pic below, has around 5k to 10k steady initiates. Sawan Singh, who we are in his lineage, had around 200k followers. A spiritual practice that works is one that produces the results you are going for. I watch as hundreds and hundreds of J-R's students enter into leadership roles. I've been watching this, oh since I began my spiritual practice 40 or so years ago.
In our awakening to Spirit, awakening to our true selves we can't help but step more and more into service; serving the loving for mankind at every level. Fellow students I know work with the homeless, they work in food banks, they write books- hundreds of inspiring books written by these students, they go in the prisons to assist folks to wake up to who they truly are, they teach gymnastics to kids, they work with fortune 500 companies teaching leadership and caring, they facilitate self-growth trainings all over the planet, they teach myriad courses on abundance, self empowerment and spiritual keys to a successful life, they lead leadership seminars around the world, they work in hospice, they assist the dying, they do almost anything you can imagine to be of service.
One spiritual teacher (leader) infects thousands of others with loving, caring and kindness. Each of those then go out to transmit the living love to others in down-to-earth, day-to-day, real life actions. No act of service in loving is too small.
A spiritual practice that works first transforms your life into success, balance and fulfillment. Then from this center of knowing and purpose, with great loving and caring, we go out to lift and assist wherever we can.
See below in the pics 2 books I have published. The poetry was a bliss, but the book on how drugs affect the human energy field and our spiritual path was very challenging to write. Honestly, I fought writing it tooth and nail. Yet, the call to service won out. I did not want to serve in any way that had the word drug in it. I was reading a post from Stephen McGhee Leadership this morning and realized more clearly that my call to educate folks about the hidden effects of psychedelics (In a current atmosphere of people really pushing for more drug use) was a leadership role. Folks need to know more about the subtle effects. The psychedelic thing is all about wanting to transform consciousness. Ironically enough, a spiritual practice that works does exactly that, it transforms consciousness, slowly but surely, steadily and, very important! sustainably.
The world needs transcendent leaders just now who can demonstrate the the paradigm shift we are going for. The force that is precipitating a global consciousness shift is loving, plain and simple. Actions done in loving are truly holistic. Practical loving looks like caring and kindness. Time to step up.

I have this idealistic idea that somehow, one day, my lower nature will transform into loving. As I think back in my life, this struggle that I have with my humaness started as soon as I can remember. I lived on faith for many years, aware that the grace field was, somehow, just moments away. As if my ego were a fence and just on the other side of that fence was paradise. Of course, I must admit, I am a bliss j***y on one hand, on the other I am grateful that the reality of life is constant change. I have gotten better at accepting my present experience. I have gotten better at keeping my eyes on the Beloved. The greatest blessing is that I have the experience of loving and I can reconnoiter, shift and put my focus into the loving. When I do that I don't have to change a single thing in myself or the world. I need that simplicity.

When your failings and mis-takes have accumulated enough experience, then your deeper inner wisdom, perhaps as the inner master, submits them before the throne for transformation. The soul’s imperative, as a continuous process of awakening, is crowning you.
