From my journalling this morning
Q- Dearest God, what is the definition of service?
“Service is loving another as yourself, to flow with life, not against it, and to be present wherever this flow takes you with complete compassion.
Service is about your heart seeing another with complete Love and acceptance….it is a merging with the universe, where no sense of self remains.
It is a natural part of who you are, as you remember you are one with the universe.”
Q- What am I meant to understand about service at this phase of my life?
“There is no” you” and “them”.
No one giving…and no one is receiving.
All of it is contained within the Oneness.
When you see yourself as separate, you suffer…
because you begin to assign limitations to
what is available to you…
and therefore to what you can give.
But when you become a clear channel ( NOT a vessel)
you realise you are connected to an endless supply.
Life and creation are not separate…they are one….they move as one.
And then… there is no effort in giving.
No fear of depletion.
No identity in serving.
There is only the “flow”
When you think of “bountiful” you think of nature, don’t you?
Nature does not try to be bountiful…. it simply is.
And in that being… everything is provided.
Birth and death, all the seasons, sun and moon…..all is in perfect rhythm and balance.
And you are not separate from this.
Guru Nanakji said, “Sab Tera, Sab Tera.”
All is Yours… all is You.
In that knowing there was no sense of ownership
and so giving and receiving happened with complete compassion, grace and clarity.
Jesus Christ was not interested in accumulation of anything in this world.
He knew he was a creator.
And in that knowing… he spread the word ….the message of LOVE, inner connection , Oneness. He was Love itself.
Buddha let go of everything from his kingdom….because he awakened to the same Truth of Oneness.
He was not renouncing the world…
he was no longer bound by it.
And so, as awareness deepens, service is no longer an action.
It is merely being completely present with where ever life is flowing ….moment to moment….with complete alignment, heart open, knowing you are a channel and not a vessel.
You do not serve…
You merely allow life to flow through you.”
Q- As a householder, I still feel worry about how we will manage.
“Your worry comes from your mind that causes you to perceive you as being separate from your bountiful nature.
Your mind ironically creates thoughts of separation and suffering when in truth, you are limitless and bountiful yourself.
The coffers drain again and again not because of external circumstances…..
coffers of material, wealth, coffers of peace, coffers of love and respect in relationships, coffers of feeling safe in the world etc.
The coffers drain again and again to demonstrate to you where you still think of yourself as being separate, limited, rationed and controlled.
This phase is teaching you about faith, returning to oneness, teaching you that you are not just a part of nature….you are nature itself.
And nature is bountiful.
Never in lack…..it flows , renews and provides in ways that the mind cannot possibly understand.
This phase is teaching you to let go of falsehoods, false notions about yourself and how you fit in with the world.
If you walk through this life feeling you are not all of it, you will continue to suffer, to continue to operate at a limited, controlled capacity of your truth….your full potential.
This phase is teaching you to remember…
To truly remember…
That you are all of it…
that life is not happening to you, but through you.
To allow this rememberance to soften control and let go of fear.
To step into the flow with faith
And you realise…
You were never meant to hold everything together.
You were only meant to stay connected.
“What if I fall?”
Oh my darling…
Let go…
and flow ….❤️
