This is one of the greatest blessings that humans have: To know the simple peace of seeing and being.
Seeing: this is not only a visual perception, but all the senses are involved at the basic level. Seeing is the ascertaining of the world around us. This is also through feelings, emotions, and thoughts. Seeing our world without the tremendous, endless inner noise is simple, yet often not done. The world is noisy, the inner-world can be noisy, too. Seeing through this noise can be done with quieting the mind. Then seeing can become very clear and simple. Quiet mind, clear mind, clear sight.
Then the true peace of Being comes into play. Being is the embodiment of ourselves and our world. One affects the other, so that Being is one, organic, growing process; Being is existing in the 'now' and that 'now' is everywhere at the same time. Through clear sight, you can enter Being more and more truly, clearly.
Perceptions, opinions, ideas, alliances, attitudes, creations, ideologies, and feelings bounce around off of us and through us and around us, and the world takes certain shapes. Those shapes are shadows of the realities of Being, the window dressings of Existence. Strip away most of these things and you can see the simple, breath-taking reality of everyday Being.
Most of us look at and perceive life like T.V., the passive passing of images on a screen in front of our eyes. Every once in a while something shocks the dense fogginess of our Being into life, not just feeling alive, but into the 'moment', the stream of vital existence. Most of us run to food, sex, movies, something 'outside' ourselves to divert us from truly, simply being peace. Peace is often seen as 'uncool', 'boring', 'mundane', but true peace through Seeing and Being is the most exciting, breath-taking experience the human being can participate in.
Few have known it, many want it, political institutions can never understand it: Peace is in each of us, and we all experience it for however short a period of time every day, in sleep, in daydreams, in some way. If we did not, the mind could not survive.
The more you instill peace in your life, the more life will become peaceful.
The more of us that do this, the greater the power of peace in the wider world of Being.
Beyond images, thoughts, and feelings, the peace of seeing and being here 'in the moment', more and more truly 'in the moment', gives you a Center that can never be shaken, no matter what takes place. To keep your Soul intact, while the world around you is crashing and breaking, is the true treasure of life. This is your ticket to the Beyond. Here. All the auras of Being are gathered into one here. People have said they have seen Heaven in near-death experiences, and this vision is all the colors of the spectrum, and there is a deep peace and contentment in the vision, as well.
So Auras are just energies coming off the body, off the Being, the human being. Colors are the great richness of visual Existence. Some say that Colors have spiritual affinities, as well. This abounds in occult understandings of the world, and even in art history, and in the way our Seeing is affected on an everyday basis. To know the Simple Peace of Seeing colors and Being in those vibratory states (tantric) can have very calming, spiritual implications.
Using Being to create a magic space to interact with reality (yantra) can bring Peace and harmonious understanding to you through ritual, investigation, and transformation. Belief can be sharpened to a needle-point of perception and transcend the intellect and emotions into a magical realm of personal, psychic space, mysterious and yet clear and true. Magic is Spirit on Fire, yet peaceful and calm. A raging storm of quiet inner graceful, fluid Oneness.
The Knowledge of Simple Peace of Seeing and Being vibration (mantra) is known as meditation, many different types in many different cultures. True meditation is silencing the Mind, in essence. All distractions melt away, the world turns inward, and the focus is not to things outside, but of the inner-life and that is the true life of everything anyway. Chaos and calamity and change is everywhere outside, the inner holds true. For everyone, this is the same, but people want to feel separate, different, unique. Well, we are! The imagination makes the world seem fascinating; the simple peace of Seeing and Being makes the world graceful, unified, beautiful.
Most of us can't stay in the beauty of that spot, for our minds itch and freeze and fail us, and we want back into our cages of lust, and failure, and fainting mind, traitorous feeling. It's safer that way, we perceive. Then we see, and exist a little deeper again somewhere, somehow and we feel guilt and shame because of 'the cage': we get conflicted, agitated, confused. Loneliness and aggression often visit us in these times. But instead of going there, you can always go to your Center. Make that the spot to return to, and then knowing the simple peace of Seeing and Being will be right there with you, without effort, without burden, without trouble, without fear.
You will be Home wherever you are, and you will never be alone. Home is to Know this simply, blessed and graciously.
You are worth it, try it. Not hard at all.
Blesses be on you all.
