Life is amazing: Seeing with the inner eye

​Sitting in meditation with others at our midday prayer service recently, I was reminded again about how much we do not know about our world, physical and spiritual. Yet how much we limit ourselves due to responding to what we see with just our physical eyes and senses.
There is so much that is amazing about our world. So much energy, life and potential to connect into and live. So much happening that we cannot ‘see’ yet when we get still, somehow, we ‘know’ is here.
At the beginning of the new year, it is the perfect time to reconnect into the limitless, profound and pure energy that is available through all of us, to be ‘used’ in the very best way possible for everyone. Through our humanity, our humanness, we tap into our spirituality so we can merge the two, enabling us to experience the ‘oneness’ we write about all the time. This is the greatest expression we can live as a ‘child of God’ or a child of the universe.
The invitation is that, instead of limiting ourselves and seeing only differences and separation, problems to fix or hide from, that we become open to the full potential that is here: the experience which goes beyond our human sight or understanding and connects us at depth.
This is seeing from the inner eye or vision. Seeing through and beyond to the greater reality we already abide within. How about, this year, we practice seeing with our inner eye? Let us seek to connect, to discover a deeper reality, a deeper truth that unites us and will indeed, set us free.
You may like to make this a focus for your new year and bring it with you to our Burning Bowl service this month, as we let go of the old through spiritual surrender and make space for the new, mighty energy, which we are forever one with.
