Soren Dreier ~ Lonely For Beauty and Love

Seems like the heart people are getting stirred and shaken at the present, once again the Zen inside goes haywire and loss of direction kicks in. Some heart people go traveling the world, in search of something that has already found them?

When the Zen inside gets messy, it doesn’t mean the heart based toning is gone, it’s just not in the usual place anymore. We once more have to sail our uncharted waters of the inner seas.

The treasures of this world are not bathed in light – they are in the darkest of places. Not in crowded rooms but often in voids of soulful despair and hospitals wards with a scent of chemo to them. Sometimes high impact events on an emotional or physical scale will shed light in the darkest corners of the inner realms of consciousness and empowerment will kick in, transcending the darkest of moments into shining light.

There’s beauty to be found in the obvious and there’s beauty to be found in abandoned worn out factory halls where doves come to rest for the night.

“It’s hard to stick to the heart in the matrix”, some say.

Maybe so, maybe so.
There’s an overlooked quality of the heart and mind I would like to point to: “Staying Power”.

Since no fancy mundane flight schedule will ever take you away from yourself; we are both the passenger and the vehicle of transportation. Some are into heavy drug use to avoid that fact. Some slits their wrists in order to get away from themselves.

We live we die and death not ends it.

A shift of location can bring about a shift in perception and a single notch of perception often does the trick.

It’s like looking at a piece of art and thinking, it’s not that interesting, something is missing. A custodian sees that, takes your hand and says: Try this angle and the piece of art reveals itself in all of its beauty.
So obviously hidden and such a tiny move in order for perception to change. Shifting lonely for beauty and love into: I am Beauty and Love. I just couldn’t find it within me and away walks: Lonely.

The custodian maybe responded to the loneliness for beauty, and you once again can love, but nothing in this life is solitarily an external affair, so you were merely pointed toward a change of perspective. The hallmark of the creative consciousness.

When we find ourselves lonely for beauty and love we seem to have disconnected that creativity inside by going outside the status quo of the void.

Outside the confinement of teachings in any locked up spiritual community.
