Belonging To Life
Introduction
 This
book is an invitation to know again the joy, the
wonder and the peace of truly belonging to Life and
belonging to your own life. In this book we
explore techniques and ideas that invite you to free
your attention from the mind that feels it needs to
do Life so you can be Life again. Through being, you
will discover yourself again as a part of a vast and
sacred process, one that is working tirelessly to
bring you into full consciousness of Life.
You will learn how to not be seduced by fear, self
hatred, resistance and despair so that you can stay
fully connected to Life. Rather than struggling, you
will find out how to engage with Life, using your
mind rather than having it use you.
You will also discover how to trust all of Life
again, even the difficult. In this trust, you
can let go of trying to create a Life and instead be
here for creation. And it is safe. In fact the
safest thing you can do is be present for your life.
That is belonging to your own Life.
The healing that we will be exploring together isn’t
just for you. By cultivating Sacred moments of being
fully present for life, allowing them to become like
a precious string of pearls woven throughout your
day, your whole experience of life is transformed.
As you learn how to live in a mind that is alert and
receptive to the present, discovering a reverence
for all moments, beings and things, you will be able
to give to Life one the most powerful gifts any
human being can, the gift of your undivided
attention.
You then become a place of healing on our planet,
for all that you touch and every being you meet is
then transformed by the inclusion of your
consciousness. Therein lies the possibility of
heaven on Earth. As Vaclav Havel, President of
the Czech Republic said, "The basis of a new-world
order must be grounded in an environment that
respects the Sacred dimension: the miracle of Being,
the miracle of the universe and the miracle of our
own existence."
When you have read this paragraph, lift your eyes.
Notice the quality of the light in the space where
you are―the
air surrounding you, the river of breath as it moves
through you. It is different than when you began
reading this for the river of life has continued to
flow. Drink from the nectar of this living moment.
For this moment, belong to this moment. For this
moment, belong to your life. For this moment heal
yourself and heal the world.
