This Week's Quotation:
We have come into this exquisite world to experience ever and ever more deeply our divine courage, freedom, and light. Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.
Love is simply creation’s greatest joy. Carry your heart through this world like a life-giving sun.
~ Hafiz, Persian Sufi Mystic
Life-Giving Suns
Terri McCartney
It’s empowering to remember that we are life-giving suns! Feel that brilliant light coursing through your body and radiating from your heart to bless all of existence.
As dynamic creators, we have access to a storehouse of fresh ideas. We can shift our perspective and approach to adjust to life’s ceaseless invitation to change and harmonize with love. When we’re rattled by something life has sent our way, having the perspective that it’s just love holding us upside down and shaking all the nonsense out frees us from habits of victimhood and judgment.
As both eternal and mortal beings, our unlimited self is experiencing a limited aspect of its existence through physical matter and the constraints of time and space. Many tools and practices support us in tapping into our higher senses and maintaining attunement with the Unified Field. And whatever challenges we face, they all enrich and broaden our spectrum of experience and contribute to the evolution of life.
While some of us might be feeling that being human is not easy, we might also appreciate that creation is magnificently mysterious. As long as we accept the inherent change, and consistent ebbing and flowing that takes place in this dimension, we can courageously meet whatever life puts before us and shine like the sun’s we are.
About Open Windows
We, the authors of this blog, dedicate it to the transparent exploration of the world's sacred scripture and enlightened spiritual thought. We believe that the original inspiration of all faiths comes from a common source, named and revered in a myriad of ways. With that understanding, the innumerable symbols, beliefs, and practices of faith cease to divide. They become open windows to a common reality that inspires and unifies us. We find deeper insight and nourishment in our own faith and from the expression of faith from others.
We hope these weekly quotations and meditations speak to your heart and soul.
