Who is
my Witness? God(dess) is my Witness. The Higher Self, True Self, Isvara seated
in my heart. Witnessing this experience in the human body, as a lab experiment,
I am so curious. With an artist’s eye for texture, line, rhythm, feeling the body,
unraveling her mysteries: the mysteries of this particular form, the mysteries
of the universe. My whole story told in this body: Dancing Bhaktini Mermaid!
My
witness is the Curious One. Like a scientist poking around the question “What
happens when I try this?” Being interested in what might be revealed, what
might occur in the physical or emotional experience or spiritual realms. How is
prana moving, life force waking up? Not just the breath in and out, prana and
apana, but vyana prana circulating in the nadis of the sheaths, the rivers and cells of
this form that make muscles, tissue, bones and fascia remember. Concentrating
on sensation the mysteries begin to unfold, The Heroes Journey. Discriminative wisdom is helping me
to see, to differentiate my thoughts from the rest of the bliss.
These
storehouses of information, our bodies hold all imprints of this life, the
bumps and bruises, misinformation, patterns of our parents, blood patterns of
ancestors: latent impressions, samskaras. Our bodies in its layers and sheaths
hold the emotions, the heart, the mind, our soul. Refining our vision to the
vast inner horizon of our being, of our pranic force, it is possible to consciously
move into the cellular level to re-program our dna. That is science.
Awakening
is the process of uncovering and shining the light of compassion and non-judgment
into these imprints and layers, to heal, becoming Whole, Holy, One; of making
the unconscious Conscious.
Like
an artist, showing up with materials in hand, my Witness observes the unfolding
of a creation in this moment, and this moment and this moment……………
On the
path to liberation, to kaivalaya, to moksha it’s critical to learn to See, to
become a Seer/Witness of our own experience. And as we begin to know our own
experience and begin to experience the divine as the SEER, it starts getting
juicy. This is where the mysteries unveil, where the mystic crosses the threshold.
And as we begin to see our own essential self and reality as it is, perhaps our vision clears and
we one another with more kindness, compassion and acceptance, reality as it is.
