Learning, Growing, Sharing- A Bicycle Journey Through India & Beyond


Wednesday, May 17, 2017

Woah hello!:)

It has been quite a while since posting... we do apologize but also feel that we only want to post when we can benefit others in the stories we share and the lessons we learn. Although we are learning everyday... from the people around us, the place we are in and ourselves the teachings that life offers doesn't always show itself right away.

Since returning back from Nepal Erin and I have been together and apart... spending time on a permaculture farm/ forest restoration project in Basoli and with some dear friends in Bhowali Uttrakand.  In the next coming posts we want to talk about these people and projects going on in more depth because they are stinkin awesome!!

I think what has been keeping me from posting has been the shifting mindsets within the journey of mindfulness. One evening when Erin and I were apart we were talking on the phone and both agreed that it may be easier to practice mindlessness instead haha. This journey inwards (that is just as much as a journey outwards as both are one) can be tiresome and scary. Allowing for the space, that can feel like emptiness at first, to be. Space is an element that makes up all things. We are all the expansion of space... feel the space... let it fill you:)
Now with further intention I would like to practice playful mindfulness to keep the lightness present.
It isn't so helpful to tell of my experiences within this journey as every being experiences the path in a different way.  However even though each part of the universe has its own path, its own dharma, the ultimate goal of mukti is the same where true harmony and oneness is realized through awareness.  We are each a part of the whole within this universe and as such are a reflection of the universe. We each contain the same elements that are within every form... earth, air, fire, water and space. These elements were created along with the creation of the universe and as life has evolved these same elements make up each being. So...
How can you not be beauty when the universe is reflected through You?
How could you not be divine when you are a mirror of the universe?
How could you not be truth when the universal truths form your being?

We are each given a gift by the universe to share and give to others.

How will you walk on this earth?
Like a standpeed of elephants that messages the earth?
Or
Lightly pacing in discontent?

How will you walk on this earth?
Skipping childlike in sync with each vibrational bound?
Or
A mindless early morning stroll?

Hmm... ladedahdedah:) as it is!
Be kind to yourself, love yourself.. as you are a reflection of the universe and we are each a reflection of one another.
