"But that isn't the end of things either. Humanity is soon to make a spiritual and metaphysical breakout into a new day, a new time and space. Those who find the Child within, and listen to Its Covenant, are to DO what they have been intended to do from the beginning of linear history. Another "dimension" is to be added! This book is about that."
"The reader has a role to play in these events. This volume would not have come into your hands unless you were to be apart of the story soon to unfold..."
William Samuel, "The a Child Within Us a Lives," Introduction, page 10 & 11

Re: "God is a process, and you are part of the process right now.@ Neal Donald Walsh
"God is a process..." seen from a bottom-up, particle state perspective; but Seen from a Top-Down Quantum perspective God is One and Done.

Alternately, "Keep in mind the feeling I Am, merge in it until mind and feeling are one," as Sri Nisargadatta suggests.

Yes, the "First Person Singular of the Present Tense To Be I Am" is not a noun but a verb, not "a Being" but "a Process of Being."
[Rich Note: Only the Absolute -- which is prior to the Alpha-Omega Awareness of Being I Am -- is the Only Changeless Ultimate Subject and Object Simultaneously (SELF).],
Re: "OY!"
In looking up "OY" (I asked my 13 year old granddaughter if "Oy" was a text word and she replied, "If it is, it's old person text word ;-), I ran across a song titled "Oy Vey" by Mac Miller, with a refrain that sums it up pretty well, as well: "...Oy vey, holy cow, oh my god, wow, Oy vey, holy cow, oh my god, wow..."

Hay-Ku of the Day (Happiness Itself) -Reprise
[Rich Note; Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(Letting the Inner Smile Out Photograph)
Letting the Inner Smile Out (2009); When I was younger, my stock answer to people who looked at my face and asked what's wrong was, "Nothing, that's just the way I look when I'm thinking"; more recently, I'm thinking less and enjoying it more; Companion haiku: Accompanying.
Lose interest in
Thought and you are Free to Be
Happiness Itself.

[Rich Note: This offering was Inspired by the following quote from Jackie O'Keeffe's, "Born to Be Free, The Freedom You Look For is Where You Are Looking From" (http:/jackieokeeffe.com): "To continue to look outside for something that is already inside only serves to distract you from looking within. This is the fundamental flaw in the pursuit of happiness. It can never be attained from without and so to pursue it in any way is futile. All external circumstances, activities, possessions and events are designed to keep the mind entertained. But happiness is outside the realm of mind: it is outside the functionings and capacity of the mind. It is in the realm of placing your attention on your innate nature. To feel and experience real happiness, causeless happiness, requires conscious or unconscious surrendering of your interest in your thoughts." (page 14)/(Fair Use).]
[Rich Note: Little Divine Synergy going on here, as I just went to Jackie's site to confirm her URL and the following cycling, random quote was the one that appeared: "Your true nature is causeless and living causeless happiness is your natural state of being." Pretty neat, huh?]
Stop looking for Help
Outside in any Person
Place or Circumstance.
Stop looking for Help
Inside in any Feeling
Thought or Emotion.
"When the Ineffable asked 'What am I?' the tangible world came into being. When the Ineffable asked 'Who am I?' life appeared."
Very simply, the tangible world is God's knowledge of What God is," the old man answered. "Life is God's knowledge of Who God is."
"The Child within that sparks the life of each of us is God's own Self-awareness in the process of happening. That spark is God's Self-image."
"The arrogant and frightened ego that surrounds the spark is the husk of man-made nothingness standing like a veil between Godhead and Its Self-Image."
"The Who includes the What and there is no division between Awareness and the images that appear within it here." (Master Han/WmSamuel)
Resting in Presence
As the Thought-Free Awareness
Of Being I Am.
Being Here and Now
Still and Silent as I Am
One with the Father.

I forget I Am
Awareness because I think
I am a person.

Enlightened of the
Illusion of Being a
Separate Person.
Re: "...God Is With Me Always..."
Any "god" that is
Other than I Am is not
An Absolute One.
"Lo, I Am with You
Always" as the "Awareness
Of Being" You Are.
God, as the "Presence
Of Awareness I Am," must
"Be with Me Always."
I must be Aware
To Imagine I Am not
Awareness Itself.
To Be other than
I Am as This Awareness
Is impossible.
Falling in Love with
The Presence of Awareness
Fulfills the First Law.
Here's something from Ram Dass I found to be pretty cool this morning:
http://www.ramdass.org/dying-is-absolutely-safe/
This epitaph was on a tombstone in a cemetery near Boston Commons, in Boston, MA (as well as the in Ashby, MA, mentioned by Ram Dass in piece previously linked):
“Remember friend, as you pass by, as you are now, so once was I. As I am now, so you must be. Prepare yourself to follow me.” (Anon.)
