The Mystic
Accepting that one knows from within and is
guided by that knowing removes so many of the small fears that plague humanity
today. It is thought to be a fearsome thing to go to certain places at night,
to live in certain sections of town, to know a certain type of persons, to
bank, to swim, to eat some types of foods, not to
eat other types of food, to take substances, not to take any chemical substance
at all; the list is endless of the elements that engender fear in the hearts of
modern humanity. Fear sells products and services, fear puts bars on the
windows and doors of houses, fear cuts us off from a great
many experiences and locks us in boxes dominated by the dreaded guardian I call
the social consciousness.
When one accepts that there is another way of know what is best to eat, where it is safe to go, how to use resources without harm, without this being told to us by the reigning expert in the field, one is living from the inner knowledge known as mystical. I do so in many areas of life, and trust that the forces at work in the affairs of humanity is guiding me, and those I encounter, for the greatest good of all concerned. This is practical mysticism, and one which I seek to cultivate, and am allowing to spread to every area of my life. It is my belief, once this knowing encompasses all areas of my life, I will totally transform. And that is my goal.

As this day is negotiated, it must be done
with the thought firmly held within my mind that I do know what to do and what
to say in every circumstance. The Spirit that lives within me has at Its
disposal all knowledge; thus the information base from which I make my
decisions is limitless; relying upon it, I cannot err or cause harm. This life
of which I am a part is not only limitless, all knowing, all pervasive, all
wise, but it is also all loving; seeking only to expand the awareness of
everyone into the reaches of love and light where true happiness and joy abide.
I am grateful for being aware of a measure of the scope of this life, and seek
with every breath to be aware of more and more. As I become aware of more from
within, the mantle of mystic must be worn lightly. But this I do not
have to make extraordinary effort to do, as the Spirit within will do all that
must be done by me, as I allow It to have control of my motives.
That forms the crux of the mystical life; a
total and complete surrender of the prerogatives of life to the Spirit within;
with the knowing that this Spirit has my best interest at heart, and that
interest is also the best for the whole of life everywhere. I am privileged to
understand a measure of this thus, am accorded the responsibility to enact here
on earth this very principle. It is not work, but rather joy, as the life
flowing from my moments are filled with wonder and amazement to the observer
that I must become. Whenever there is a problem or a difficulty, it is there
simply because the observer has lost sight of its function and thinks that it
is the actor.
Today I will live the life of the observer and watch as the Holy
Spirit within me conducts life.
