Feeling Beautifull

Winter — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 03:33:03 +0000

Such a gloriously beautiful day out in the wilderness today. I took a drive down a long swath of gravel road between 89 A and Dry Creek Road and at about the halfway point stopped to get out into it all. I struggle to convey in words what it is like for me (which is mostly why I am writing this) and my relationship to it. Do some of you know how music can move your emotions like waves. Surrounding myself in this place is like that. Years of wonder about the natural world and being enchanted by color, texture, sent and sound plays like a symphony for me. The rambling of desert shrubs and trees twist and claw their way up form the red, orange, gold, purple and slate blue cobbled earth. There are patches of yielding, moist rich earth covered in a multi colored carpet of mosses and lichens. All of this so fragrant, especially after a rain. Today the sky was blue. Here the blue is bottomless. I could fall forever into it completely forgetting myself. Boldly jutting up from all of this are spires and mounds, cracked and piled, of coppery stone, sometimes white, sometimes almost purple. Laced into this is the deep green of various pines and mesquite. Sun and shadows play across this landscape all day and then, into the night, the scent of the air changes. The green and mineral like texture of the air softens as a touch of humidity beds down onto the the earth. Everything settles into another world and the multitude of stars have a depth to them not seen in certain parts of the country. The Milky Way IS like a shimmering stream across the sky. Is it wrong of me to want to be a part of this ambrosia of the senses? This is beauty, power and grace that I feel and all unfettered by myself. I do not even feel myself at these times. There is only my observance and acknowledgement and even that is blurred by the experience of my surroundings. When I am in my body I do not hide from the experience. I can not be lazy and “just be” how I am. I keep myself in the “Still not good enough for this important world” mode, tho I do know I need to sometimes step out of this and see that which is perfect in its asymmetry. Does the world push itself or does it unfold? Does that flower “feel” tired, discomfort, pain, confusion and self doubt as it opens to the sun? There are seeds that do not find good purchase and wither away during the process, also there are seeds that are not made to grow at all. Is there pain in this? It is still useful, it dose decay and return to the soil so therefore nothing is truly useless. Outside of this ego-drive (nothing wrong with the ego-drive mind you) of “I AM AND I WILL DO THIS” I still have relevance. I could fall to the earth, surrounded by all of this which I have just described,...

Respectfully Yours, Winter

I am struggling with this even tho I know that is not the way. I would not be considered the Superman or Wonderwoman kind of hero. I am more akin to Rorschach. I am disturbed and I do not want to give in. I push to become more tho I can not see a light at the end. I am aware of the myriad of quotes from Sagan, Buddah, Jung, Abraham, Campbell even my own teacher etc… and I agree, I see the validity. It does not move me from seeing what is wrong with me. That which I was born to work with. That which alienates me. No, the alienation is not always a choice. It is others reacting to me and wanting space between us and I being respectful of that. The obvious manifestation of my issue has been a very severe stutter all my life. Within the past 2 years I have overcome tho most of it. I can have normal conversatins now however I have been learning that there is more to it than finally being able to speak fluently. There is so much that now has to be straighened out physically, mentally and emotionally. Yes working with this is the tool to work with toward what one might call enligtenment, yet you will not see me sitting under the bodhi tree any time soon. I know how to love with knowing that I am not considered. I still love. Yes, the kind where you hear laughter in the other room between two people you adore and you smile. Not feel as if you should be involved, you just like hearing the happiness and that life is well with them. The kind where a woman has accomplished something and you nod and say “awesome”. The kind where you are so very emotionally and physically attracted to someone tho you do not let them know for you know how uncomfortable it would make them. This does not stop you from feeling love. It is your feeling and it is good. I do FEEL the beauty of my world. Not only see it. I can say that it is a feeling. I will share a post of mine to share what I mean. I can not detail everything in this one post. I am sure that points will be made by others that I have an understanding of and all is very appreciated. My friend Marc has invited me to write and I will. If any of this helps someone elas it is all worth while however I do not claim to be any more than what I am. Winter

Heroes of the Now

Marc — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 23:48:01 +0000

Publishers Sale Heroes of the Now is a journey of self-discovery, a story of Love and Healing and describes a path to experiencing greater Joy in Life. Through the shamanic techniques of forgiveness and release and Soul Retrieval, a spiritual awakening occurred. The path, well described, guides truth seekers to look within the depths of their own internal worlds, actual realities held within the supposed confines of the mind, to find Peace. Spirit is within and all around, however, it is only when a peaceful internal world is present that a cohesive and consistent connection to it can exist. Heroes of the Now is a call to action for those ready to serve Humanity in new and exciting ways. Available Now in popular e-reader formats! Click Here.

Read a Book Sample (Excerpt 1)>> Read a Book Sample (Excerpt 2 — the Breakthrough Letter)>> Read a Book Sample (2-week Journey to Remembering)>> Reviews Angie Ursic, Melbourne, Australia Marc’s book took me on a journey of rediscovery of my true self, my connections and the infinite possibilities. In a realm full of distractions where it is easy to pulled away from your spiritual path, this book was a “spiritual oasis” providing a structured and practical approach to getting back there. On the way, there are tears, challenges and revelations but the guidance Marc provides gets you through and onto the next platform. I am grateful to Marc and would recommend this book to anyone serious about their spiritual development. Lisa and Michael Jackson, Melbourne, Australia Marc is a friend, mentor and guide for life. His books explore humanity and life as they exist in our everyday. He teaches creating light where there is darkness, positive energy where there is none, and high density energy to replace low and that realising our paths and the love and joy available along the way is possible, when we live with clarity. Marc guides you on a journey of self discovery allowing you to explore your inner self, and with an understanding of your personal consciousness it brings an awareness of the positive earth energy helping you to release past negativities and move forward with an enlightened focus. Raison Detre Yoga helps to open up those positive pathways and Marc’s yoga sessions combine mind body and spirituality focussed on light and personal development. Marc teachers yoga as a way of being. By incorporating yoga in your every day, the light it brings travels with you and you become more aware of positive experiences and are able to share your positive light with everyone you meet. We highly recommend Marc’s teachings as a wonderful and positive guide for life. Christi Waldon, Los Angeles, CA When I first met Marc, an indescribable warmth and feeling of love encompassed me and I felt home. I knew he was soul family. Marc...

Dedicated to all the Souls affected by 9/11…

Marc — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 21:46:39 +0000

Dear Friend, I Remember… You called, it was early and I was still asleep. Immediately, I felt it though… The deep rift in the Fabric of Humanity. Your voice was soothing, I Loved hearing your voice, but there was an edge as you told me to turn on the TV. And so it began. I cried that morning for those Souls screaming. I felt the pain wracking through me as the events of that day unfolded. It was mesmerizing to witness the World change in that moment. And so it did. I remember feeling every emotion, every thought, every ripple of the reactions the World poured through the collective consciousness we all felt. And it changed me, as it did you. We were never the same after that day, were we? I feel your presence Now, as I write this ten years hence. It is soothing again and I am grateful. There is no edge this time, as I contemplate the Peace I feel right Now. There has been too much pain and suffering since then, but with it has come a great transformation. A shift in Consciousness has occurred and the World is again, a different place. There has been healing this past decade. Humanity has risen up, a veritable vibrational upheaval has occurred and we find ourselves on the eve of an anniversary. Ten years has past… Can we let it go? That is really the question isn’t it old friend. An inquiry on life itself, that question is and the answer seems so easy, yet why is it the hardest thing to do? I feel the tension mounting in the World right Now, but within the din another vibration, much higher and lighter in nature. That is what we seek, my friend. That is the tonic that soothes our Soul into the physical, spiritual bliss our beings know is possible. Life is but a letting go… Love begins Now… True Love, the essence of Divinity itself. The Infinite One that resides within each of us is this Love and in that we are all the same. When I look at us, I see the Hope for Humanity. I see the possibility of yet another choice. We each must choose that which brings us to that which we already are… Love. When we let go of all that has come before and wake up to the Reality of this, much begins to shift and we view the World anew. We see other choices rooted in our Hearts and begin to follow this guidance. Our Souls, speaking clearly through us in thought, word and action results in total personal responsibility and we start becoming… Love. It is a process, indeed, my friend. With its unique beauty and inspiration, it may not look so always, but there is a high vibrational quality to it. We start to see that the events in our lives that unfold before conscious eyes are sometimes an illusion, gripped by the non-reality of unbridled self-indulgent...

Compassionate Incident Management

Marc — Sat, 04 Dec 2010 20:40:17 +0000

Everything is made up of energy of the Universe. We are all connected through this web of life, whether we are aware of it or not. The challenge of coming into a Unity Consciousness is the recognition that my thoughts words and actions can and will affect everything. This is an energetic, Universal Truth. If we deconstruct the words used to describe us as human beings, we can learn very much. HU, for example is an ancient sound of the Universe that means Spirit in all instances, religious or otherwise. MAN, roots from mana, of which one meaning derived denotes, mind, or that which “separates” us from the rest of the animal kingdom. This is an interesting consideration, as it injects separation from the natural world within the very definition; but mind also provides us with the opportunity for conscious choice. As for BEING, we can think of as the body, for without the body, in our current paradigm, we couldn’t actually BE… Compassion is everywhere. So, when it is all broken down to it’s roots and origins, we can understand that HUMAN BEINGS are made up of Spirit, Mind & Body. In taking a closer look at the definition of Spirit,what is revealed is an understanding that it is the nonphysical part of a person, the soul, regarded as a person’s true self that is capable of surviving physical death or separation; It lives on. There is also archaic reference to spirit as a highly refined substance or fluid thought to govern vital phenomena. Substance or fluid, energy… All of Creation is referenced to something that all beings can interact with. It is the clue to the notion of God I believe, which is that God is actually the ever-present energetic field of possibilities, the space between the notes which brings about all things. Creator flows through this energy, which means I and the Creator are one and the same. I and the trees, plants, rocks and fish, and yes… even other Human Beings are one and the same. Spirit is with us ALWAYS whether we accept it or not. It is at the fingertips and in the breath, which is the words roots from Latin spiritus ‘breath, spirit,’ from spirare ‘breathe.’ This is important to understand, and I mean deeply understand as it is the access point to our Higher Consciousness. In our Breath is life and awakening, Spirit. Breathing meditations are one of the first practices one must develop to bring greater consciousness to all situations. It is our means of regulating the internal and external pressures of the energetic realms, as well as our physical world. By incorporating breathing exercises, one can build their light within to match the actual frequency of the Universal Vibration, the energy of all Creation; Love. Which means Human Beings are Love, it is our zero point blueprint, the original intention that birthed our Soul into the ethers. These energetic facts are indisputable and one merely needs look to faith to see what miracles have been provided those who completely embraced Spirit. Once one...

Creating a Dream

Marc — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 00:07:33 +0000

This site is coming to be, just as I am coming to be and the book, Heroes of the Now is in it’s final phases. The book is just about finished, so stay tuned! I am writing daily (or so…) at the Buffalo Diaries and will be announcing the book’s publishing timeline very soon. I am listening, learning and understanding a great many things, there is a lot going on at once. I am the flow and the Loving Timeline so all is coming together for the highest and best good. I am just getting out of my own way, allowing Creator to express through me. And this website is just beginning… I see it becoming something truly amazing and inspiring, to honor all the Heroes of the Now who are doing the work in supporting the transition and are seeking the Truth. Let’s Remember… Together. Love and Kindness, Marc
