Heart Explorations: Embracing the Whole Show ~12/26/23

December 26, 2023

During our time together, we will explore what it takes to live from an open, undefended heart.  Naturally, any true exploration of living from the heart necessarily entails taking a deep and sustained look at what prevents us from keeping our hearts open.  Grounded in the knowledge that the essence of us, our true nature, is the very lovingness within us all, we will explore how to recognize and release egoic energies by cultivating open-hearted awareness practices which support us in directly experiencing our true Self.  By leaning into willingness, steeped in self-honesty, and with a consistent dash of courage, we endeavor to open to whatever life brings, as it brings it, that is, on life’s terms.  In so doing, we trust that everything – absolutely everything – is here for us to use for healing, for purification, and for learning to live from the heart.  We look forward to supporting each other in our individual explorations of how we truly embrace the entirety of this show we call life.

To deepen further into the teachings from Heart Exploration here’s a link to the Being Aware of Awareness meditation podcast.  In these meditations, the reading from Heart Explorations is contemplated.

Diving Off the Branches ~ Inspirational Writing by David Hemphill

December 20, 2023

It’s everywhere. It’s on the leaves, in the trees, diving off the branches. Swimming through the air, summersaulting across the table. Exploding in the clouds and sprinting across the sky.

Look inside yourself for your inner wisdom, and you will surely find it. It comes for you. Like a bee, waffling through the air. Like an eagle, swooping to the ground. It’s the water, carving paths through mountains, waiting for a reunion with you in the deltas.
Every thought can take you to it. Be still. You are here as these thoughts arise. You are here as they dissipate. Whether they pour sorrow like rain, or despair like hail, you are here. Torrents, hurricanes, and tornadoes: Fury, rage, exasperation. Whatever storm arises, its you who watches them undamaged.
Do not be afraid. Each and every experience is a flower blooming in your field of life. Little celebrations are born as seeds, soaking up the nutrients in its soil. Your ambition, your love, your sacrifice are your roots. And from your deep presence, the stalk of experience breeches the surface, rising up past the ground and reaching for the sky. Your generosity, your holidays, your family: They are the sweet fruits and fancy leaves blooming. Life is budding, and flowering.
And wilting. Know your loss is not accidental. Wisdom uses grief to meet you, too. Each dying branch on a great oak tree is destined to fall. Life makes way for more life, and the oak becomes magnificent and proud. But even the mighty tree has an expiration, and one day it falls and clears way for new life.
The mind, and the identity your mind has assumed of you, is safe to perish like the great oak. Underneath the bark, the decay, the microbes and decomposers, is a richness to life no single being could encompass. Wisdom will take you there, to the place beyond encompassing. Which roll-e-pollie can claim it decomposed the oak? Which earth worm can claim it moved the soil for garden? No single thought or identity can ever encompass it. It is beyond itself. Life is beyond itself.
Turn to your inner wisdom and look there. It will lead you to the bliss that is everywhere. On the leaves, in the trees, diving off the branches.

~David Hemphill

Seven Steps Journal: Out of the Stillness ~ Do I Experience World/Body Directly? (Step Two)

December 20, 2023

Have you ever wanted to see inside someone else’s mind and heart as they journeyed toward spiritual awakening? Have you ever wondered what obstacles they faced, what inquiries they used, or what insights they experienced? If so, this program is perfect for you. Each week, Regina Dawn Akers shares from her published journal, Out of the Stillness. It was written as a personal journal over 8½ years as she contemplated quotes from spiritual masters and practiced the insight she realized through contemplation. The quotes Regina contemplated were collected by Michael Langford and published in The Seven Steps to Awakening. Both books are used in this program.

Rhoda ~ Living the Undefended Surrender Experiment, “Courage”

December 20, 2023

Listen to the Recording

With humor, love, and open-hearted awareness Rev. Rhoda Makled is exploring her own take on the Surrender Experiment as coined by Michael Singer. Raw, authentic, and faithful she is uncovering the path to living in the undefended Heart.

Rev. Rhoda will dig into topics she is exploring in her life such as what it means to live the experiment of being surrendered. Feeling every feeling and seeing every thought she can, Rhoda will share the journey of studying, journaling, contemplating, being inspired by, and surrendering to Truth. Inspired by so many teachers including those here at Awakening Together, Rhoda will share her contemplations and invites you to come and discuss your experience with your own surrender experiment. This undefended dialogue with Inner Wisdom is just one more way to observe as the self is undone–the intention being to leave space only for awareness of Awareness and release everything that covers Truth.

In this program, Rev. Rhoda will explore the teachings of Michael Singer, Regina Dawn Akers, Paul Hedderman, Roger Castillo, Helen Hamilton, and many more.
