Make Peace with the Sea

I AM IN AWE RIGHT NOW <3

I have all over body chills and tears in my eyes <3

This woman is one of my new superheroes and has tapped into a frequency that I vision myself fully embodying <3

Ever since some recent sightings of Great White Sharks in the glorious Santa Barbara ocean many people have been asking me:

“When you swim and surf in the ocean are you afraid of the sharks?”

And I say,

“I choose to LOVE all the creatures in the sea and know that the LOVE that I am keeps me harmoniously aligned with them all.”

When I was living in Indonesia my Dad took me on a 2 week trip around the Spice Islands and we lived on a beautiful boat and went diving 3 times a day.

In the days before our trip I dreamt of sharks every night and was feeling a lot of fear about seeing one.

Being the wise man that he is, he told me “There are a lot more sharks on dry land than there are in the sea.”

This message was delivered by the adventurous Soul who jumped into a swarm of thousands of mating hammerhead sharks and sank to the bottom of the sea where he watched the the aquatic love dance while breathing underwater.

Lo and behold on our first night dive on that diving in uncharetered Indonesian waters when all I had was a flashlight showing me what was only right in front of me, I spotted 3 giant sharks within the first minute.

Yes my heart quickened.
Yes I had a momentary holding my breath “OH MY GOD I AM WITH 3 GIANT SHARKS” all over body shivver.
And yes, I CHOSE LOVE and TRUST and SURRENDER.

And because I did I BECAME ONE with the sea and her wonders were revealed to me.

Check out THIS INCREDIBLE VIDEO of these magical human beings dancing with the marine beings.

Their mission is to END THE WAR on sharks, whales, dolphins and other marine animals.

Let’s remember that the ocean was our original home.

We are all water beings here to embody and share LOVE with all of existence.

Haystack Rock

I am here now.

At Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast.

I am loungerlating in an old school leather chair kicking back with my feet criss crossed on this matching ottoman and rocking with a cup of hot tea in my hands.

I am perched in a wood house that is filled with memorabilia from fishermen and a lifetime of ocean lovers on a hill top gazing out to Haystack Rock which is one of the most sacred natural displays of beauty that I have ever seen.

There are thousands of white seagulls flying around and resting upon Haystack Rock.

Just in front of my view of Haystack Rock there is copious amounts of Queen Anne’s Lace flowers wildly growing with dollops of pink roses here and there.

The surf is flowing in constantly…wave after wave of deep aqua blue power & the soundtrack of the sea is lulling me into what feels like an alpha wave inner state of calm and centered beingness.

To the left of Haystack Rock there are 2 surfers in the ocean in head to toe super thick wetsuits and they must be truly stoked because they are catching wave after perfect wave.
Up here on the hill I can’t see the expression on their faces but I would guess they are smiling ear to ear.
And I am truly hoping that they are staying warm out there in that frigid water.
And I kinda wish I had my surfboard here.

There is a big white fishing boat slowly trolling by in the distance and my wish is that they are catching lots of fish.

There are droves of people and dogs on the beach.

Some are walking.
Some are running.
Some are skipping.
Some are biking.
Some are sitting.
Some are happy.
Some are in deep contemplation.

I have a feeling we all feel really lucky to be here.

I feel really lucky.

Last night we took a long walk down the beach at sunset until we couldn’t walk any further.

This beach is gargantuan.

Super long and super broad.

I took so many photographs and will share them with you accompanied with inspirational messages for years to come.

The scale of Nature’s majesty here makes me feel incredibly tiny.

And this littleness feels really good.

There is one lone man who is sitting in a chair very close to the waterline with his giant camera set up on a tripod.
My fantasy is that he is doing a time lapsed photography session.
He has a big pair of binoculars and he is probably looking at everything I am looking at but up close and in detail.
Hey, here’s a telescope.
I can get in on that up close and personal detail should I choose to…or I can just stay in this perspective with the bird’s eye view.
Now there is a small group of 4 people talking to him and he has leant them his binoculars. They are pointing at something in the direction of Haystack Rock.

As I tune into their frequency I now find myself with tears rolling down my face for no particular reason.

And now it’s not just tears.

Its a big deep cry.

It’s one of those “God I am so blessed to be alive” cries.

Really cathartic.

And it is really quite simple why this is happening right now…

I am deeply touched by this place.

We all are.

How could you not be?

It is familiar to me and it feels like one of my homes on the planet.

I feel deeply held by Mother Earth here.

The energy is so huge here that I feel like a child in her arms.

I feel tiny and it’s a relief to remember this Universal Truth.

I am here in this home and in this sacred place because my dear friend, who is my soul sister has an amazing family who is part of my soul familia here on beautiful planet Earth.

I just naturally and easily love them and I am grateful to receive the love that they naturally flow to me.

And I am so blessed that they graciously invited me into their mystical world here in Cannon Beach and into their super sweet world back in Portland.

Like me, they are all beauty givers and nature lovers and artists and lovers of life.

They are sensitive and kind and gracious and generous souls.

And I can palpably feel the love and attention to every detail that has gone into emulating the pure perfection of nature’s majesty in this home temple on the hill that is giving me shelter and a cozy spot to rest and relax.

This place is part of their family’s legacy passed down from 4 generations back.

My soul sister’s grandparents have passed away but I can feel their Spirits here and I deeply appreciate everything they have created here.

And I am feeling so much Love and Gratitude for my parents and grandparents and their never ending love for the sea and all of nature and for always creating dwellings that bring the outside in and have always helped remind me that WE ARE NATURE.

I am doing my best to keep these traditions alive.

And I feel their spirits here with me now (especially my dear ole Dad) and know how deeply they would appreciate this awe inspiring place too.

It always amazes me that the deepest tears I cry are the ones evoked by Love and Gratitude.

The waves of tears have now subsided but I know they will come again and I invite them to visit me anytime.

Wave after wave will continue to flow throughout the tides of time during this miraculous life.

What will always remain amidst the ebbs and flows is this Heart centered Spiritual Soul presence that is as strong and powerful as Haystack Rock❤️

An invitation to LOVE and BE LOVED…

LOVE is the Heart of all Spirituality and BELOVED LOVE is the most evolutionary and advanced path on the planet

Why is intimate relationship such a burning alchemical vessel for growth, healing, and transformation? One of the reasons is that in the mandala of the beloved there is nowhere to hide. All of your early trauma and wounding arose in an interpersonal context and must likewise be unwound within a relational field. Your beloved has appeared as this field, but she has also come promising the end of your world as you have known it.

If you have a partner who knows your early history, who is intimately familiar with your core vulnerabilities, and is compassionately attuned to its unfolding and illumination, you are teetering on the edge of cliff. But it is a cliff of grace. But this grace is on fire. On the one hand, a portal has been opened, your guide has appeared, to mirror to you the wholeness that you are. She will hold you and will relentlessly reveal to you the mysteries of your body, your psyche, your organs, your cells, and your nervous system. What a precious situation.

On the other hand, he is an emissary of the unknown. In his presence, universes come and go; there is no ground, no reference point to lean into; no matter how deeply you look, you find only empty space. Nothing is certain anymore. You are being held, but it is a holding that is unbearably vulnerable and without history. You stand totally unclothed in her presence, unable to fool him like you fool so many others, unable to pretend you have it all together. The beloved has no interest in your holding it all together. She wants all the way inside and will use whatever skillful means she must to find you. She will always push up against that which is unresolved within you. She loves you this much.

The beloved is mad crazy in love with you, but may not fit your historical requirements and ideas about what this actually means, about the true implications of having a beloved in your life. She has appeared as your tour guide into the secret areas of your body. If you follow her, your world will become unraveled, you will be taken behind the scenes where the relative world is being organized. The beloved sees you as you are and this is terrifying. In his presence, you are beheld as the majesty that you are, but this is unbearable. You come face to face with the greatest fear that you’ve ever known, but have never been able to articulate: that you are loved. For when you are truly loved, when you are entirely seen, when you are fully held, it is the end of your world as you know it. You will never be the same. You will never again be able to pretend that you are other than perfect and precious as you are. And this is terrifying.

You long to be loved, to be seen, to be held, but please know that the implications of this are immense; they are cosmic in proportion. To allow yourself to be loved in this way a part of you must die. Everything you thought you weren’t must be surrendered. You must let go of the stories of the unlovable one, the awakened one, the special one, the imperfect one, and the despairing one. Love wishes to reveal your nakedness, to remove your clothing, and to burn away all that is false and less than whole within you. What you are is a raging firestorm of creativity, sensuality, openness, warmth, and kindness.

Love will never stop until you know this.

If you will allow her or him, the beloved will show you the infinite ways that your heart is at risk of breaking open in any moment, and never, ever being put back together again. She will plead with you to let it all go, to fall on the ground, and to allow yourself to fall apart, so she can show you that you were never, ever together to begin with. She will reveal to you that this raw, tender, vulnerable open heart that you feel beating inside you – right here and right now – that this is your gift to the world.

Divine Beloved

Thank you Great Spirit for manifesting Beloved LOVE everywhere I am and everywhere I go.
Thank you for showing me over and over again that my original blueprint, my deepest Soul’s desire and my true destiny is Beloved LOVE.
I am so grateful to be continually blessed by the high frequency of LOVE and I am deeply devoted to continuously clear the blocks to Love within me so that I can continually receive the great power of LOVE in my life.

On the plane to NYC yesterday I sat across the aisle from an amazing man who I had the most profound connection with.
He is a world renowned stage designer for plays, musicals and operas.
One of his best friends is one of my life long favorite musicians.

I was reading THE CHARGE by Brendon Burchard and he asked, “What’s that book about?” and I told him that it is about Activating the 10 Human Drives that make you feel alive.
He asked, “What inspired him to write that book?”
I told him that Brendon was in a terrible car crash and that as he stood bleeding atop the crumpled hood of his wrecked car he asked himself:
Did I live full on?
Did I love with my whole Heart?
Did I matter?
He realized that the core reason that we exist is to live a fully charged life, to give Love with the entirety of our Hearts and to truly making a positive contribution to the planet and that this is all that truly matters.

At this point my new friend said that he had something very intimate to share with me.
He told me that his wife of 30 years was dying and that soon she would dead.
He said that this was his last trip before she makes her transition.
He told me that he always thought that he would be the first to go.
He told me that he never realized how deeply he loved her until he realized that she was going to die.
He told me how deeply he is going to miss her.
With tears in his eyes he said that he had never been so vulnerable with another human being than he was being with me.
He said that it is very challenging as a man to be this vulnerable with a woman because men are so conditioned to be strong and not show their weakness and show how deeply they love and feel.
He thanked me and told me how much lighter his Heart felt.
And I told him that my Heart deeply needed to hear everything that he was telling me.

It turns out that we both lived on Jane Street in the West Village of New York City at the same time.
I lived at 43 Jane Street and he lived at 101 Jane Street.
He also told me that the sweet Lovers John Lennon and Yoko Ono lived on Jane Street right across the street from us years before we had both lived there.

When the steward came to tell me and my Soul sister Susan that the Captain was treating us to anything we wanted, we ordered champagne just for kicks and giggles.
My new friend said to the steward, “Could you just pretend that I am a very beautiful woman too and that the Captain is sending me complimentary champagne too?”
His wish was granted and we 3 toasted to living a fully charged life, giving our Love full on and making a positive contribution to the planet.
And we also toasted to his beautiful wife and their incredible Love.

And then, just to make sure that I know in the core of my being that I am on the right path…that I am fully aligned with the most powerful force in The Universe…Divine Love…life bestowed more magic and wonder upon us.

We made our way from Times Square down to the Flatiron District for dinner at ABC Kitchen where our taste buds became whirling dervishes in love with every sensual bite of the love infused food.

As we walked into the restaurant there was a window display of the divine Lovers Shiva, his wife Parvati and their son Ganesha, the remover of obstacles.

The woman who took us to our table was named “Nandi”.
Nandi is the gate keeper for Shiva and Parvati.
You cannot access the high vibrational Divine Love between Shiva and Parvati without Nandi’s assistance.

Apparently, we were granted access to the realm of Supreme Divine Love.

As we sat down…

On one side we were sitting next to a couple who recently got engaged on Kauai and we all talked about Love and marriage and weddings.

On our other side we were sitting next to a couple who were passionately making out in between bites during their entire meal. It was hot.

And then, just to make sure that I was getting the mega message of Divine Love, my long time friends and teachers and long time husband/wife/loves/Yogi Yogini dream team who I have not seen forever Ty and Sarah Powers synchronistically walked into the restaurant to visit their beautiful daughter Imani who I have known since she was a child.
Imani works at the restaurant and told us about her great Beloved.

And this morning I discovered that 2 of my dearest dear hearts Peter and Peiter whose marriage I officiated on Kauai and are 2 of the greatest fearless radical Lovers that I know are here in NYC too staying right down the street from us in Times Square.

So life…thank you!

Thank you for sending me all of these amazing reflections of the Divine Love that I am.

I will continue to choose the highest vibrational frequency of Divine Beloved Love over and over and over again because it is the only way to fly.

Love is the greatest evolutionary force available to us and I am so grateful that I am an open and clear conduit for Beloved Love to flow through me and take over my everything.

Great Beloved Love…I belong to you.

Great Beloved Love…I am your faithful servant.

Great Beloved Love…Please work through me.

Great Beloved Love…Please clear me and cleanse me and uplift me and inspire me.

Great Beloved Love…Please continue to lead me and guide me and direct me and protect me in my thoughts, words and deeds on all levels, planes and dimensions of reality.

May we all surrender into the Great Beloved Love that we all truly are.

Countless blessings of LOVELIGHTBLISS to us all <3

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

AND SO IT IS.

Rare and Wondrous

We are in total awe after a rare & wondrous sighting of the condors of Big Sur…

We considered stopping the journey up the coast to check them out but decided to carry on…

And lo & behold they decided to chase after us!

Such an incredible metaphor that we do not need to turn around so that we don’t leave anything behind…if anyone or anything wants to soar to the highest heights, they will rush to find us & rise up to meet us ;-))

As they flew right by our chariot we pulled over & they circled back around soaring right above our heads… not once but 3 times…encircling us over & over again.

We knew that we were being blessed with a supreme blessing & when we read the symbology of the Condor our Spirits truly soared:

Condors prefer to live in the high mountains, to fly in the skies above the cordilleras. They symbolise the highest elevation, above limitations and obstacles. They are, above all, the symbol of the transpersonal; they integrate the wisdom of those who have died, those who have no ego. They are the symbol of spiritual ascension, of communication with the spirits, with what is subtle.

The condor is the symbol of creative power, the incarnation of timeless philosophy; his majestic flight suggests the process of life itself, of creative eternity, whose ever-living works are made up of births and deaths.

The eagle is the symbol of the sun, but the eye of the condor is the sun; it symbolises the hidden light of the great emptiness. It is the master of weather, of thunder and lightning, of wisdom, of new vision, of prophecy, of illumination.

The condor is without doubt the king of the skies, but ultimately he is a servant, a simple gardener, the instrument of the art of renovation, of cleanliness and purification; new productions need new spaces, which are fertilised from the disintegration of the old, of the spirits of the dead. Wisdom, prudence, calm, reflection, discretion, intuition, vision, prophecy, messenger of the divine – these are the attributes of the bird.
