Aging into God

/ jcr416
Even the trials of mind and body bring you closer to the one light shining through everything.

It happens second by second by second.

The slow blossoming of something radically new 

growing in the field of losses.

It’s happening right now.

Can you feel it?

Past and future recede into mystery.

Even the trials of mind and body 

bring you closer to the one light

shining through everything.

We don’t know what a single thing is

but we find its beauty everywhere

along this second-by-second path into God.

Wisdom?

/ jcr416

Mystical aging isn’t about wisdom,

it’s about being ever closer

to life’s pure experience:

old bodies, slower thoughts,

sunrises and cold winds,

loving touch, timeless moments,

deep breaths, honest conversation,

and the steadily parting veil.

Perhaps that is wisdom.

Telling the Truth

/ jcr416

How do I tell family and friends

I have changed, 

the old me passed away and a new one seeks

only peace, quiet, and the simplicity of love?

Of course, “I” am still here, but in a new way.

Images of my aging grandmother,

sitting quietly in the garden,

draw me into the waiting stillness.

I offer my grandchildren 

her same unspoken presence,

resting in divine being.

The Next Stage in Aging

/ jcr416

The “I Am God” state activates the next stage of spiritual evolution.

In aging’s deep space of sacred consciousness, we surrender the false self

into the living divine energy

of the cosmos,

touching everything,

blessing everyone,

 affecting the whole world.

Entering God’s  consciousness, love, and creativity,

we don’t so much change the world

as join the flow of its love.
