LIFE GOING PERFECTLY





It is possible to have Joy, and Love and Happiness and a Life going absolutely perfectly.Ìý Perhaps this is not true in the physical universe, but you can create a universe of YOUR OWN were there are no troubles, and life is going perfectly.Ìý It begins in your imagination, creating illusions, dreaming dreams and the decision that Your Illusions ARE Reality for You.

SOMETHING MUCH BIGGER

We are each a part of something much bigger.Ìý Being responsible for that "something" is an act of courage and responsibility.Ìý If we refuse or ignore this reality of our existence on Earth, we are doomed to endure the pain of imprisonment in the flesh for the rest of Eternity.Ìý WeÌý Perceive and Experience what we Cause: nothing more, nothing less.... However, we can UNDO what we have caused.Ìý But, we must first acknowledge that WE are the cause of it.Ìý As Gautama Siddhartha, The Buddha, said, "No one can cleanse another.Ìý Only you can cleanse your self."

TWIN SOULS





What are Twin Souls?

Twins and soul mates are two entirely different things.Ìý If you do believe in reincarnation and past lives, you could literally have thousands of soul mates out there, people you have bumped into constantly over your many, many lives along with the karma which comes with it.


But the Twin is different. It is literally your missing half from the beginning of Time. You can have 1000's of soul mates but there is only one Twin.


The reunification of Twins is also a very, very holy event.


According to folklore, myths, stories through the ages, all of us are Divine sparks from the Source, eons ago, we were WHOLE, not separated, in a state of constant bliss. The Classical Greek philosopher Plato talks about it in the “Speech of Aristophanesâ€� in his book “The Symposiumâ€�.Ìý The ideas expressed in highly symbolic form.


Twins are marked by several characteristics: parallel life stories, eery and insane coincidences, communication which borders on the telepathic and an overwhelming sense of familiarity between you, like you’ve known each other forever.


Various myths and traditions around the world describe when Twins became separated: In Christianity/Islam/Judaism, it is the Fall of Man, when Adam and Eve are cast out of Paradise. In Egyptian mythology, it is when Set angered the Sun God RA so deeply when he killed his brother Osiris and cut him into 14 pieces, forever separating him from his Twin, Isis.


This awful event caused Twins to separate and the search of true love is really a search for the missing Twin. Their reunification is holy because it is literally the coming together of a PRIMARY energy from Source itself. Meaning, the energy Twins generate is of such a high frequency and so pure, that the work that Twins do together is of immense importance and usually helps inspire humankind to evolve to a higher state of consciousness, which is why Twins finding each other during this time of transition would go a long way.


Twinship is not about romance, candle lit dinners, great sex, buying a condo together and shared investments and retirement savings plans. It is about two souls coming together to be of benefit and service to humanity, usually by inspiring and leading others with the creative work they do together, whether that be the books they write together, the ideas they come up with together, the healing work they do together, the artistic and creative output they do together etc.ÌýThe works they produce together usually live on, long after they have gone.

It is usually a male, female configuration, but not always. It may manifest itself as brother and sister (Richard and Karen Carpenter) or teacher and student from time to time (Socrates and Plato) Think of John Lennon and Yoko Ono.


Or consider , the father of modern mythology and , the two never had children, but instead, focused on their work. With his books like “Hero with a Thousand Faces�, Campbell influenced everyone from George Lucas and Star Wars to writers around the world. Jean, was a principal dancer for the Martha Graham Dance Company and revolutionized modern dance.





Other legendary Twins: and , St. Francis established the Franciscan Order of monks, Clare founded the Order of the Poor Ladies


and : Medieval theologian, Peter Abelard was considered one of the greatest minds in Europe in the 12th century. For a time Abelard was Heloise’s tutor and eventually lover. When Heloise’s uncle tore them apart and had Abelard castrated, he ended up becoming a monk and Heloise became an abbess, one of the greatest in France. Their letters have survived the centuries and are a testament to the redemptive power of love.


Pierre and , the father and mother of radioactive theory and Nobel prize winners in chemistry and physics, the two were pioneers in the field.


,Ìýbest known forÌý, 11 volumes written in collaboration between 1935 and 1975, the Durants presented history to the common man and most of all made it interesting. ÌýDurant was a gifted prose stylist and storyteller who won a large readership in great part because of the nature and excellence of his writing, which, in contrast to formal academic language, is lively, witty, charismatic, colourful, ornate, epigrammatic, in short, “humanized.â€�


Mughal Emperor and his queen , a heart-broken Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal, the most architecturally beautiful Ìýbuilding on Earth, as a tomb for his beloved Mumtaz.


and , considered the two most talented actors during Hollywood’s Golden Age, Tracy and Hepburn would spend 27 years together until his death, made 9 films together and went down as one of the most mythical love stories in Hollywood history.


The late playwright Patricia Joudry wrote the book “Twin Souls: Finding Your True Spiritual Partnerâ€� and she likened it to a single person climbing a mountain by themselves, with the struggle, the pain, the difficulty. Suddenly you find yourself alone at the top and feel proud and happy of what you’ve accomplished. Suddenly the fog lifts and you see there is another mountaintop not far from you and your Twin is there, alone, Ìýlooking right back at you."

UNIVERSE WITHIN




ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý "You've always had the power to go back to Kansas" -- Glinda


ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý "Oh Dear! That's too wonderful to be true!" -- Dorothy


ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý "Now those magic slippers will take you home in two seconds. Just close your eyes and think to yourself, 'There's no place like home'." -- Glinda


ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý "Then why didn't you tell her before"? -- The Scarecrow


ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý "Because she wouldn't have believed me.Ìý She had to learn it for herself."-- Glinda


ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý "If I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own back yard, because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with." -- Dorothy in 'The Wizard of Oz"


Like Dorothy in 'The Wizard of Oz' we are creatures of our own design. We live in universes created by our own agreements and imagination. We are inside the Physical Universe looking out to find the origin of our being. We long for a place we feel certain must exist; a place where there is no trouble. We wait for wizards and witches to show us the way home. Yet we fear to close our eyes and click our heels to see the Universe Within.


Our journey home begins at the source of the rainbow; shining light upon our own eternal, ethereal selves."

JEWEL and LOTUS





Jewel within the Lotus

Phallus and the Womb,

United we are, both of us,

The Source of Life Anew.

We are really No-Things

Beings joined with Form:

Animating Matter

The Cause of all that grows.

All creation springs from Love,

Heaven joins the Earth:

We are Souls united with the Flesh,

Death is joined with Life.

I am like Air.

You are like Fire.

A hearth is made in Our embrace.

Our loins the fuel, our kiss the spark,

We fan the Flame with Our desire.

Rising smoke from each caress,

Our Love the heat, Our Joy reflects

That through Our Seed, Our Souls are met:

through Our Cause we are Effect.

One reaches,

One withdraws.

Positive flows to negative,

In and out and ebb and flow

Are rhythms of this Universe.

One is born;

One grows old.

Life and Death are a single thread -

Binding Souls within the flesh

We can escape this slavish strife:

Awake! Fly! Be Your Immortal Soul!

We can transcend the Game of Life -

Create A Universe of Your Own!

MY PERSONAL MONA LISA





"Much like Leonardo da Vinci, I worked intermittently on this single painting over a period of many years, never satisfied that it was finished, and continually improving upon the original.Ìý This painting is my personal Mona Lisa, my daughter, Maria.


We had a live-in servant for many years, named Tanneke Everpoel, hired and paid by Maria Thins.Ìý She did all of the "heavy labor", as it were: cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, carrying water, tending fires, and a myriad other chores, including helping with the children.Ìý However, the expense of paying her wage and room did not include standing for endless hours, day after day, while I painted this portrait!Ìý My daughter, Maria, was lovelier and much more readily accessible for the task of standing for this portrait.


It is argued, convincingly, that the immortal painting by Leonard was his own self-portrait as his own, feminine Ìýreflection. What man, or woman, regardless of sexual preference in a given lifetime, has not inhabited the flesh of ten thousand bodies, some human, many not, throughÌý a nearly infinite cascade of galaxies, stars and planets come and gone.Ìý Is not survival a nearly infinite game, in which we interchange ourselves as the players of many parts?


Leonard kept his portrait with him all his life.Ìý He never considered that it was complete or perfect.Ìý Nor did he ever intend to sell it.Ìý How could one sell a most cherished reflection of himself?Ìý It is more meaningful than one's own body, which only disguises the inner self, the essence of spirit that animates the fragile flesh.


In fact, a body hides the reflection of the soul!Ìý How can any substance, especially that as rude and fragile as meat, reveal the inherent qualities an immortal nothingness?Ìý Indeed, it is the fundamental challenge and the most formidable task of an artist to reveal it!


The name given to this painting by others, "The Milkmaid", is a sacrilege!ÌýÌý It rivals the incomprehension others have for Leonardo's personal masterpiece.Ìý Yet, how can anyone truly understand that a painting is meant to reflect the Ìýessence of an immortal being, seen through the eyes of another?


She is painted with angelic colors: blue, gold and white, in contrast to the menial nature of her station in life. ÌýFrom her issues, for me, the Milk and Bread of Life.Ìý Life is embodied in her and through her.Ìý Women, are the source of children, the source of energy, the source of care.Ìý There is no more vital responsibility for any being who plays the game of life, than to confront dreary daily tasks.Ìý To humbly make the daily loaf.Ìý To soak that bread, mix and soften it with milk,Ìýmake it warm and feed it to a teething child.Ìý Survival is made of such things.


In those days I viewed life as idyllic.Ìý My dreams were more real than reality.Ìý All things were a possibility.Ìý Tragedy could not find me.Ìý Until it did, of course.Ìý Even when we lost a child, which we did with several, my wife, Catharina, remained resolute in her Faith.Ìý God guided us.Ìý He did what was best.Ìý We knew not why and need not question His purpose for us.


I have no such faith in predetermination.Ìý A loaf of grain, clean water and a bed was my fare.Ìý Time and a place to paint, uninterrupted, were necessities.Ìý My love, shared with wife and family, was the staple diet of my life.Ìý I assumed, as a Fool who knows not his own mortality, that they would endure, even when I was gone."
