Prayer for the Season: Free

I feel time passing.

May I yet know the Truth.

And may it set me free.

Free of the mind that chatters.

The thoughts that chain.

The beliefs that bruise

the very soul of this mortal life.

May I be free of it all.

Unencumbered by hate,

By the violence of my own mind.

Free of greed and fear and jealousy

That speak of a small quivering heart.

Free of it all.

May I be open and graceful,

Grace filled and – free.

Finally, truly – free.

Amen.

The Enneagram

The Enneagram –

Kaleidoscope of

Personality nuances

     The prism through which

we live our lives.

To breathe, unfettered

     through every angle

Afforded by

     the multifaceted gaze –

We rest in the serenity of knowing

     the perfection

 of Creation – as it is.

Delight in the Unconditional love

     that is as surely present in

and around us as our very breath.

Know assuredly that we have the value

 of simply being the one and only

     authentic self we really are.

And in that – dare to transform as an

  ever evolving unique expression

      of the Divine.

We trust our inner guidance

  to give us what we need

    when we need it.

And feel the inner clarity of knowing

  without doubt or fear.

We know deeply that we are grounded

  in Being, Itself.

And need have no fear in the changing

   nuances of the apparent reality in which

 we live.

The Joy of that Being bubbles up

 within us as the ecstasy

   of living this life as a gift

And we draw our strength

  from the simplicity

and full honor of being an essential

    part of the Divine.

In the end, we know the wholeness

   of all things

such that every breath in and out are

but expressions of the Supreme face

        of God.
