Still the flow of the golden river.



Upon a canvas of softest dawn, I stand, bathed in the golden hush of a new beginning. One breath, one heartbeat, I am present, whole, and at peace. The journey, a ceaseless dance of receiving and giving, circles back upon itself, each turn a deepening spiral of understanding.

A single leaf adrift on a sunlit stream, I surrender to the current, carried by the unseen hand of my higher self. In the hush of stillness, I listen. Not with ears of flesh, but with the open vessel of my being. The whispers of the universe, a symphony of certainty and guidance, lead me onward.

No frantic chase for goals, no desperate grasping at achievements. Ten minutes, a sliver of eternity, held in the gentle cradle of the present. Each inhale, a grounding in the now, each exhale, a release into the boundless well of being. A subtle shift, a burgeoning within, whispers of growth taking root, experiences weaving themselves into a tapestry of vibrant balance, harmony, and integrity.

Words like brushstrokes on a luminous sky, painting a vision of the life I yearn to live, where every facet gleams with inner light. When imbalance dares to cast its shadow, I soften, yielding to the restorative embrace of stillness. A haven of peace, a sanctuary of abundance, where gratitude blossoms like wildflowers in the sun.

Wisdom whispered in the rustling leaves, rewarded by this moment of exquisite quietude. Bathed in the golden luminescence of existence, I stand, humbled and enraptured. Though fleeting, this sanctuary of serenity leaves its indelible mark. A whisper of peace tucked into the folds of my being, a gentle echo to carry me through the day.

For even the swiftest river eventually slows, finding solace in the quiet pools that mirror the vastness of the sky. And so, I carry a fragment of this stillness, a luminescent ember of harmony, to illuminate the path ahead.

May my day continue to be graced with the gentle rhythm of a flowing river, and my heart, a haven of peace.

The mystics path

The mystic gains knowledge through contemplating the teachings of all humanity across the ages and cross-referencing it with actual experience. Developing a personal philosophy based on the most lofty thinking coherent with the knowledge gained as well as the contemplation on experiences. The mystic endeavours to understand the natural and spiritual laws behind the observed experiences. As the mystic enters within to connect with the Divine, and expands to connect with and serve other people he begins to live in accord with spiritual and natural laws. The mystic becomes attuned to new insights coming through meditation and contemplation of how to refine his perception and live according with higher order laws.

Passion for mindfullness

“What are you passionate about, what’s burning inside you?

I am passionate about many things. Tai chi, Yoga, TRE and Reiki probably in the front of the line of things that I do feel passionate about. My passion is for adding value to the lives of others.  My passion had been up an down and ventured through a multiplicity of things. I am still pasionate about astrology, I-ching and the runes. I can continue with the list. Almost everything I touched in my life is still a passion. I am still as passionate about my work as I was eight years ago when I joined Parliament. Business intelligence, information management and business analysis are as interesting for me today as what it was yesterday. So it seems my passions revolve around Philosophy, health, mysticism, divination and work.

So my passion moves in cycles where I remember an old passion and embrace it once more and then later to let it go again. My latest passion was probably my Jeep and off road driving. Even though my Jeep is broken at the moment it still is currently a passion. I love the adrynaline surge when the jeep goes off road even when I choose the easier routes. I am still having a passion for Stoicism and Rudolf Steiner’s calendar of the soul. I doubt if I will ever find someody that can share with me all my interests.

That leaves the question…what is my current passion that is burning inside me.  I have a passion for meditation and mindfulness. I have spend much time in meditation and seeking my inner stillness. Mindfullness is probably the basis for health, philosophy, mysticism, divination and work.
