Clarity through stillness

Sitting in meditation, the first thing that came to me was –  in stillness, you perceive truth.

I was told, “Be still and know I am God.”
So that was the first thing that came when I asked, “What is the theme for today?” And the theme was stillness.

Instead of being pulled outside in many different directions, it is about being still, going within, and recognizing the oneness.

The theme of oneness seems to be coming up a lot recently in the last couple of years. It has always been a subtle background theme,  but now it is coming up even more intensely…..this seeking and realizing the oneness of oneself in the ”  I Am”.
This can only come in stillness, not when you are enacting your role in the world, not when you are flapping around trying to find solace or trying to control events, circumstances, and people so that you feel safe.

It is not going to happen then.

It happens when you come back to stillness, when you realign with the knowing of oneness on the inside. When you do that, everything outside rearranges itself.

Very often though, in times that feel chaotic or difficult, we try to desperately rearrange things outside of ourselves.

Instead of doing that, finding the discipline to go still, to come back home to yourself, and to be with yourself in stillness, is incredibly helpful.

Because not only does everything that is not the truth drop away, you are also able to receive the clarity that you need to act. You receive the guidance that you need…..to know what to do in this moment.

You don’t receive this guidance from anyone outside of you, because there is oneness.

You receive this guidance from deep within.
