HARRY POTTER MASTERLIST!

ONCE A MAN FALLS IN LOVE, he finds himself drawn to not just the physical beauty of his muse, but for the essence of who the person truly is - their quirks, intelligence, kindness, and their unique way of seeing the world. Every interaction, every shared experience, every memory he brings, adds another layer to his adoration towards the love of his life.

His love for them is evident in the little things - the way he watches them when they aren't looking, the small gestures of thoughtfulness, the silent support during their dark moments of life. It's in the way he listens, truly listens, to the hopes and dreams, fears and frustrations, always eager to offer his thoughts and ideas. This love manifests in his desire to be their anchor in times of storm, their cheerleader in moments of triumph, and their person in all the in-betweens. It is a love that values their independence and individuality, recognizing that they are their own person with their own journey, and yet, he longs to be a part of that journey, to walk alongside them and share in their joys and sorrows of life.

Mattheo Riddle was no different.

He marvels at your kindness, your sweetness, and the light you bring into his life. You are his muse, his inspiration, a spark of the goodness that stands in stark contrast to his own perceived flaws and insecurities he feels deep inside himself. He sees you as an angel, a pure and radiant being who somehow chose to share your life with him, despite his own imperfections and inner demons.

He sees you as an angel in a human form, who chose to live among the devils, just so he could feel the heavenly touch for the first and last time in all eternity.

He often wonders how he, with all his rough edges, hidden scars, and a past life without a happy memory, could be worthy of your love. He feels like a monster, haunted by past mistakes and burdened by the weight of his own fears and failings. You, on the other hand, are everything he aspires to be - kind, compassionate, and endlessly forgiving. Your presence in his life is a constant reminder of the beauty and grace that he lacks, and yet, your love makes him strive to be better, to rise above his darkness and become someone worthy of your affection.

In his heart, he knows that your love is transforming him, helping him to heal and grow. Your existence is a light that dispels his inner darkness, a reminder for him to cherish that even monsters like him can be loved. He clings to this, that your love is making him a better man, one day at a time.

01. THE PARTY

The Slytherin common room was full of shadows and flickering lights, transformed into a wild moment of freedom for the night. The music, a thundering beat that echoed off the stone walls, could be heard from miles away, yet no professor or ghost visited the common room to cancel the party. It was as if the ancient castle itself had granted this one night of freedom to its most cunning and ambitious students. The rhythmic thrum of bass notes and the infectious melody of the latest wizarding hits filled the air, blending with the sound of laughter and the clink of glasses.

Bodies moved in a hypnotic dance, swaying in sync with the music. The students had discarded their usual aloof demeanors and uniforms, lost in the euphoria and joy of the moment. Green and silver decorations adorned every surface, shimmering under the enchanted lights that hung from the ceiling like glowing jewels. Laughter rang out, high and clear, mingling with the deep, resonant hum of conversation.

In one corner, a group of seventh years huddled together, their heads bent close in a whisper, before erupting into loud laughter. Nearby, a couple twirled around each other, their bodies intertwining like dark waves, eyes locked in their private world amidst the chaos around them. The fireplace, usually a place of quiet contemplation, was now surrounded by students perched on its stone ledge, their eyes gleaming with the thrill of the night and alcohol.

Long tables filled with food and drink stretched along one wall, bearing the weight of a feast other students could be jealous of. Platters of magical meals, charmed to stay warm, smelled of aromas that mingled with the scent of butterbeer and stronger beverages. Bottles of firewhisky and elf-made wine were passed from hand to hand, each sip fueling the atmosphere more and more as drunken the students got. The alcohol flowed freely, loosening tongues, transforming even the shyest students into party animals of the night.

The Slytherin common room had never felt so alive. Tonight, they were not just the students of Hogwarts; they were a family, united by their house and their understanding of what it meant to be a Slytherin.

Mattheo Riddle was one of those students who were enjoying themselves tonight. His breathing features were illuminated by the green lights as he leaned casually against a stone wall, a cup of firewhisky filled to the brim in his hand. The amber liquid sloshed perilously close to the edge with each of his slowed gestures, but Mattheo seemed unconcerned, clearly lost in the haze of alcohol. His dark curls, usually styled in the way that made uncountable amount of girls fall on their knees, now fell loose around his face as you watched from a close distance.

He was engaged in a drunken conversation with Theodore Nott, whose tall, lanky frame was the opposite to Mattheo's more athletic build. Theo's typically serious demeanor had softened, his features relaxed into a rare, genuine smile as he listened to Mattheo's ramblings with a giggle threatening to spill out from his lips. The two of them, often seen together, now looked like true brothers. It was almost scary how much they resembled family when they were drunk.

Mattheo's voice, rich and slightly slurred, carried over the music as he recounted a particularly outrageous story from his recent fight. Theodore threw his head back and laughed. It was clear to anyone how close those two boys were, drunk or sober.

"Can you believe he actually thought I was serious?" Mattheo snickered with a big grin stretching across his face, taking a swig from his cup, the whiskey burning a warm path down his throat. "I mean, I barely managed to keep a straight face!"

Theodore laughed, shaking his head in disbelief. "You're a menace, Riddle. One of these days, you're going to get expelled."

"Ah, but tonight isn't that night, mate," Mattheo replied with a slow wink, raising his glass in a mock toast. "To living dangerously and laughing in the face of consequences!"

They clinked their cups together, the sound barely audible over the throbbing beat of the music and you thought now was the best time to approach your boyfriend.

Mattheo's brown irises scanned the crowd, catching a look of you as you pushed your way through the crowd of dancing bodies. The sight of you instantly brightened his expression and a genuine smile spread across his face. He felt a rush of emotions that the whiskey in his hand only intensified, each beat of his heart echoing with the certainty that what he held for you was pure love. The Slytherin straightened up, his posture shifting from the casual slouch of a carefree boy to the attentive stance of a man. Theodore noticed the change and a knowing smirk made its appearance on his lips as he stepped aside, giving the two of you a moment of privacy.

"[Name]," your boyfriend called out, his voice full of warmth. He reached out, his fingers lightly brushing against yours as you came closer. "There you are, love."

You beamed up at him, your eyes reflecting the party's enchanted lights, making them look like twin stars. "Having fun, are we?" you teased and the tone of your voice carried a playful match that always managed to make his heart skip a beat.

"Only now that you're here," he replied. The world around you seemed to blur as he gazed down at you, all the noise and chaos fading into the background. "You make everything better."

Drunk on both the whiskey and his overwhelming affection, the boy's usual reservations melted away. He held you close, his hands resting on your waist as if anchoring himself to your presence. When he was sober or feeling down at heart, his love for you was often hidden beneath layers of stoicism and insecurity, but now, in this moment of happy drunkenness, it shone through.

He bent down, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead, then your cheek, and finally your lips, enjoying the sweetness of the contact. "I'm so lucky to have you," he murmured against your lips, his voice thick with emotion. "I don't deserve you, but I'm going to spend every day trying to be worthy of your love."

“You have no idea what you mean to me. I look at you and . . . it’s like you’re the sun and I’m just a planet orbiting around you, soaking up your light,” he continued without a break. The boy wanted to get every one of his words out as fast as humanly possible. To show you his hidden feelings he wasn't able to tell you before. “You’re my everything, [Name]. I don’t know how I got so lucky. You’re so kind, so . . . good. And me? I’m just . . . I’m a mess, you know? A monster sometimes.”

You shook your head lightly and took his hands into your own, enveloping him with your warmth. He was starting to get emotional, and you didn't need to have your boyfriend drunkenly mopping around. His mood changed like weather when alcohol got involved. “You’re not a monster, Mattheo. You’re human. We all have our demons.”

“But you,” he didn't allow you to finish your sentence before he spoke up again, his voice raw with sincerity, “you make me want to be better. For you. I see you, and I just want to be the man you deserve. I’m not always good at it, but I try. I try because you’re worth it.”

You could see the glazed look in his eyes as he swayed slightly on the spot. He was rough around the edges, you couldn't deny the truth, but he was the sweetest boy when he managed to fall in love. Which wasn't exactly difficult, Mattheo fell in love easily. But when he did, it was worth everything. Mattheo was your sweet boy. “Love,” you said softly to him, your voice filled with gentle concern to the brim, “you’ve had a bit too much to drink. Maybe it’s time to slow down a little, okay?”

Mattheo blinked, giving you a lopsided grin, his expression a mix of boyish charm and pure happiness. “But I’m fine, [nickname]. I feel great. Better than great, actually. With you here, everything’s perfect.”

“I know you’re having a good time, but I don’t want you to feel terrible tomorrow. Let’s take a break from the firewhisky for now, alright?”

He pouted slightly, his shoulders slumping as he realized you were actually serious. “You’re probably right,” he admitted, a hint of reluctance in his voice. “But only because you’re asking me.” You chuckled softly at his behavior, threading your fingers through his and gently leading him away from the dancing crowd. You navigated through the common room, moving towards a quieter corner of the space where a plush couch sat, inviting you both in with open arms. The room’s enchantments cast soft shadows on the walls, the flickering lights creating a soothing atmosphere.

“Here, sit down,” you instructed as you guided him to sit on the couch. Mattheo obeyed, sinking into the cushions with a contented sigh. You sat beside him, your hand never leaving his. You took the half-empty cup of whiskey from his hold, reaching for a glass of water on the table nearby instead and handing it to him. “Drink this. It’ll help.”

Mattheo took the glass, his fingers brushing against yours as he did. He took a long sip, the cool water a welcome relief from the heat of the alcohol he consumed. “You really do take good care of me, don’t you?” he murmured, his head resting against the back of the couch as he looked at you with a mixture of admiration and exhaustion.

“Someone has to,” you replied playfully, brushing a stray curl of hair from his forehead. “And I wouldn’t want anyone else to have the job.”

As the night wore on, Mattheo felt a warmth spreading through him that was only partly due to the whiskey. It was the warmth of belonging, of being surrounded by friends who understood and accepted him, flaws and all. Despite his often rough exterior, he was deeply grateful for these moments, these stolen hours of joy in the corners of the Slytherin common room.

02 - THE MARK

The past has a profound power to shape a man, especially when that past is influenced by suffering at the hands of a father.

For Mattheo Riddle, his family history was the darkest shadow of all the shadows that clung to him, a reminder of the pain and fear that had molded his entire life. Raised in a home devoid of warmth, where love was a foreign concept and cruelty was a daily reality, Mattheo had learned to build tall and thick walls around his heart. A shield to protect him from more hurt that would come his way.

The orphanage was a harsh place, stripped of the luxuries the boy had unknowingly been born into. It was a world of strict discipline and a poor form of affection. The caretakers, overwhelmed and underfunded, had little patience for a child with such a notorious legacy. Mattheo grew up under the weight of whispers and sideways glances, the infamous name "Riddle" ensuring he was never just another child. The women of the orphanage knew his father, having taken care of him when he was around the same age as his son. What a wicked child Tom was. Mattheo was different because of that, marked, and this awareness shaped his formative years in ways he could barely comprehend.

As he grew older, the whispers about his family name became more pronounced. The children at the orphanage were cruel. “Monster,” they called him, creating the very fears that nested within his own heart. He began to internalize these taunts, seeing himself through the lens of his father's sins. The idea that he could be worthy of love seemed more and more distant, more of a fantasy that had no place in his reality. But the same idea of letting someone see past his defenses, of allowing someone to love him despite his flaws, seemed not only impossible but dangerous. For how could anyone love a monster, especially one crafted by his own father?

Despite this, Mattheo yearned for something more. He longed for the kind of love he had never known, a love that was gentle and kind, that saw past his scars and accepted him for who he was. But every time he felt himself getting close to someone, the fear surged up, a wave of doubt and self-loathing washed over him and forced him to retreat behind his walls again. It was a never-ending cycle.

Hogwarts had saved him.

Mattheo Riddle’s first steps into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry were met with a mixture of curiosity, awe, and apprehension. For the other students, he was a figure of whispered rumors, his infamous last name carrying with it a weight of fear and fascination. They had heard the stories of his father’s dark acts, of the legacy that haunted the halls of the castle like a ghost. But for Mattheo himself, Hogwarts represented a new beginning, a chance to escape the personal hell he called the orphanage and create his own path. The boy was no longer just another orphan. Here, he could be anything he wanted to be.

He wasn't deaf. The young boy could feel the weight of his father’s name bearing down on him like an invisible burden. And he wasn't blind either. He saw the way the other students looked at him, their eyes flickering with a mixture of fear and suspicion. They didn’t openly taunt him as the children in the orphanage had done, but he could sense the whispers and the wary glances that followed him wherever he went. For Mattheo, however, their fear was a source of power. He reveled in the attention, in the way his presence commanded respect, even if it was tinged with fear. He was finally someone.

He excelled in his classes, his natural talent and restless ambition setting him apart from his peers. But it was on the Quidditch pitch that Mattheo truly came into his own. Flying high above the castle grounds, he felt a sense of freedom unlike anything he had ever known. With every twist and turn of his broomstick, he left behind the weight of his past and embraced the thrill of the present, making him feel like a bird.

Six years had passed since Mattheo Riddle first walked through the grand doors of Hogwarts, a hopeful and determined young wizard with dreams of greatness he was so sure he'd achieve. But now, as he entered his sixth year at the renowned school of magic, the world around him had shifted irrevocably. The return of Lord Voldemort two years prior had plunged the wizarding world into chaos, and with it, Mattheo’s life had been destroyed once again.

Even among his fellow Slytherins, Mattheo felt like an outsider, a traitor to his own house and everything it stood for. He had once prided himself on his ambition and cunning, on his unwavering determination to succeed at any cost. But it didn't matter anymore.

Mattheo sat alone in the quiet atmosphere of the Astronomy Tower, his gaze fixed on the night sky that sparkled with millions of stars. Each twinkling light seemed to mock him, making fun of the darkness that now stained his soul even more than before. His fingers gripped the sleeve of his jacket tightly, as if seeking some comfort in the fabric, but finding none.

On his left forearm, the Dark Mark burned like a brand upon his skin. It was a mark of shame, of betrayal, and every time he looked upon it, he felt a sickening sense of disgust and self-loathing. He had thought that by aligning himself with the Dark Lord, his father, he would finally be able to escape the shadows of his past, to prove himself worthy of the name Riddle and his father's presence. But now, he realized that he had only succeeded in plunging himself deeper into the deep hole. Even the orphanage was better than this.

The footsteps behind him shattered the sweet silence, echoing off the stone walls of the tower. Mattheo tensed, his heart racing as he turned to face the intruder, steeling himself for whatever judgment or punishment awaited him. But as he turned, he was met not with the accusing glare of Filch or the triumphant sneer of a rival, but with the concerned gaze of a familiar face. It was you, with your eyes filled with worry as you approached him slowly, as if he'd disappear if you were a bit louder.

“I’ve been looking for you everywhere. Are you alright?”

No, he wasn't alright. But he would be caught dead sooner than having you worry about him like that and more.

He forced a tight-lipped smile, attempting to mask the emotions raging within him. “I’m fine,” he replied, his voice strained with the effort of maintaining the facade. “Just . . . thinking.”

You stepped closer, taking a seat on the ground beside him. “You don’t have to pretend with me, Mattheo. I know something’s been troubling you lately. You can talk to me.”

You were his angel, full of that purity and light he adored about you in a world darkened by his own sins. He longed to confide in you, to unburden himself of the guilt and shame that had consumed him since he had received the Dark Mark. But the fear of your rejection, of you seeing him for the monster he believed himself to be, held him back. It would shatter his heart, to see the pained expression on your face.

“I . . .” he began, his voice faltering as he struggled to find the words, "there's something I need to show you." With a heavy heart and trembling hands, Mattheo finally mustered the courage to reveal the truth to you. For months, he had carried the burden of the dark secret alone, pushing you out and shutting you down in an attempt to shield and protect you from the darkness that was his father. But now, as he sat before you, his heart and his soul laid bare, he knew that he could no longer hide from the truth. The boy reached for the sleeve of his jacket, his fingers fumbling as he pushed the fabric up to reveal the twisted lines of the Dark Mark etched upon his skin. The sight of it made him recoil, a wave of shame washing over him as he exposed his deepest, darkest secret to the one person he had sworn to protect.

Your eyes widened in shock as you took in the mark, your palm flying to your mouth in disbelief. For a long moment, there was silence between the two of you, broken only by the sound of your shallow breathing and the distant hum of the night owls.

“I received this a few weeks ago," Mattheo confessed, his eyes avoiding yours. "When he decided I was good enough for him."

He felt your gaze on him, eyes searching his face for answers. He could see the confusion and concern written in your expression, but beneath it all, he saw something else - a flicker of understanding and acceptance that filled him with both hope and fear. How can someone be so good to someone like him? "I've been living with the Malfoys ever since," he continued, the words tumbling out in a rush as he struggled to explain himself. "But it's not what you think, [Name]. I never wanted any of this. I never wanted to be a part of his plans, to be branded as one of his followers. But I had no choice. He made me do it."

Tears welled in his eyes as he spoke, and he felt a desperate plea for forgiveness in his chest. He needed you to understand, to see past the mistakes that consumed him and into the depths of his soul where his love for you burned bright and true. The thought of losing you hurt him more than the Cruciatus curse ever could.

“Forgive me. For shutting you out, for pushing you away. I was scared, I was ashamed . . . but I can't bear to keep this secret from you any longer. You deserve to know the truth, even if it means losing you forever."

Your heart swelled with a bittersweet mixture of sorrow as you gazed upon Mattheo, your sweet boy, sitting there before you with tears in his eyes and the weight of the world upon his shoulders. In that moment, all you wanted was to wrap him in your arms and shield him from the pain and darkness that threatened to consume him. With shaky hands, you reached out to him, fingers brushing against the mark of his father's followers etched upon his skin. The sight of it filled you with a fit of fierce anger, but beneath it all, you saw the boy you so dearly loved - a boy who had been shaped by his past but who was so much more than the picture of his scars.

"Love," you whispered into the dark, taking his face into your hands and wiping away those tears that managed to escape his control, "there's nothing to forgive. Nothing in this world could ever tear us apart, not even your father or that mark."

In that moment, Mattheo knew that he would do anything for you, that he would move heaven and earth to ensure your happiness and safety. You were his light in the darkness, his angel in a world filled with demons, and he would cherish that for the time being his heart swelled at the thought of you. You were simply too sweet for him and you knew that Mattheo’s struggles were far from over, but for tonight, that was enough.

Beyond physical appearance, Felix values a partner with a magnetic personality. He wants someone confident, charismatic, and has a strong sense of self. A partner who can stand beside him as an equal, supporting his ambitions and encouraging his creative pursuits, will truly win his heart.

In relationships, he wants loyalty, adoration, and unwavering support. He wants a partner who can appreciate his need for attention and admiration, someone who can shower him with praise and affection. However, it's important to note that he also values reciprocity and expects his partner to have their own passions and ambitions.

Intimacy is an important thing for him, both emotionally and physically. He wants a partner who can match his intensity in the bedroom, someone who is open-minded and willing to explore new experiences. Emotional connection and passion go hand in hand for a Leo Mars man.

this is my favorite one so far

i am chosen, held, and adored

tonight, i settle into the soft truth that i am enough exactly as i am. i do not chase—i attract. i do not beg—i receive. i am not invisible—I am the main character in every space i enter. i am surrounded by people who genuinely see me, choose me the first time, and honor me like the gift that i am. i do not have to prove my worth. i do not have to shrink to be loved. i am safe to take up space.

i am healing and showing up for myself. i am allowed to be emotional. i am allowed to be selfish. i am allowed to be myself—because that’s what leads me to true happiness, safety, freedom, and comfort. every single thing i want in life—I can have it. i worked for it. i cried for it. i manifested it. this life? this joy? this softness? it’s mine.

the money, the man, the life, the friends, the freedom, the body, the job, the home, the cars, the luxury, the happiness, the healing—i got it all for me. not for anybody else’s validation. not to make myself easier to swallow. i did it for me. for the baddest, realest, most radiant version of myself. i did it to be the biggest and brightest star ever seen. i did it because i’m meant to impact the world—because it’s jayd’s world, and everyone else is just living in it.

i am soft, and i am safe

i am finally honest about what i want. not what the world told me to want, not what i’ve settled for, not what i think i should be okay with. what i truly want. i want love. real, soft, warm, consuming love. i want a man who wants me, only me, deeply, completely, intentionally. a man who doesn’t make me chase, beg, or explain why i deserve to be chosen—he just knows. he chooses me because i’m undeniable, because he sees the divine within me, because loving me feels like breathing to him.

i am manifesting a soft dom man, a true generous provider, with big, grounded, masculine energy. he makes me feel safe just by existing. he’s protective without being possessive. he listens to me. he honors my emotions. he holds me like i’m precious, speaks to me like i’m magic, and loves me in ways i’ve only dreamed about. he’s emotionally intelligent, listens to me, protects me, spoils me, and makes sure i’m always emotionally full. he’s not scared of my depth—he wants it. he leads, but he lets me shine. i get to be the boss, but he’s the calm force who steadies me. we’re in sync. we’re best friends. we’re forever. i’m not the only one pouring anymore—i receive love so easily now. and i trust it, because it’s secure. he loves me loudly and clearly. i don’t beg. i don’t settle. i’m CHOSEN.

i am no longer ashamed to want that. i’ve had to be strong for so long, but i am entering a season where i am soft and supported. i am releasing the burden of always having to protect myself. i am safe now. i am loved now. i am chosen now. i am worthy of rest, affection, care, and devotion. i do not have to perform for love. i do not have to mother anyone or overextend to earn my place in someone’s heart. i am the place. i am the whole dream.

i am also manifesting friendships where i am someone’s person, not just their convenience. i am surrounded by people who love me back in the way i love them. i am safe to pour into others because my cup is always refilled. i am seen. i am celebrated. i am held.

i do not need to be a mother to feel full. i am not selfish for wanting to keep my life, my body, and my person to myself. i am reclaiming the right to be selfish in a world that forced me to grow up too fast. i am reparenting myself. giving myself softness. i am choosing me, every day. and from that place of wholeness, i receive love that feels like peace.

everything i desire is already aligning with me. love, safety, money, pleasure, joy, protection, healing, and him—it’s all mine. i deserve it all. i am the one.

i walk in love. i walk in luck. i live in luxury, health, happiness, and emotional freedom. my life is divinely mine. everything is happening for my highest good. i trust the process. i trust myself. i am whole. i am loved. i am unstoppable.

How To Use Your Dharma Practice

A s regards the method of acquiring practical spiritual knowledge, if you find a certain practice increases your evil passions and tends you toward selfishness, abandon it, though it may appear to others virtuous. And if any course of action tends to counteract your evil passions, and to benefit sentient beings, know that to be the true and holy path, and continue it, even though it should appear to others to be sinful.

Milarepa

A dharma practice is here to help us to realise our true nature of mind, but the most important part of dharma practice is capture and cancel our ego clinging.

We also confuse Dharma the teaching and Dharma practice, without the teachings we wont be able to practice the dharma

The 37 Bodhisattvas practice explain us how we need to turn our mind to the teaching.

Namo Lokesvaraya

You who see that experience has no coming or going,

Yet pour your energy solely into helping beings,

My excellent teachers and Lord All Seeing,

I humbly and constantly honor with my body, speech, and mind.

The fully awake, the buddhas, source of joy and well-being,

All come from integrating the noble Way.

Because integration depends on your knowing how to practice,

I will explain the practice of all bodhisattvas.

Right now, you have a good boat, fully equipped and available — hard to find.

To free others and you from the sea of samsara,

Day and night, fully alert and present,

Study, reflect, and meditate — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Attraction to those close to you catches you in its currents;

Aversion to those who oppose you burns inside;

Indifference that ignores what needs to be done is a black hole.

Leave your homeland — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Don’t engage disturbances and reactive emotions gradually fade away;

Don’t engage distractions and spiritual practice naturally grows;

Keep awareness clear and vivid and confidence in the way arises.

Rely on silence — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

You will separate from long-time friends and relatives;

You will leave behind the wealth you worked to build up;

The guest, your consciousness, will move from the inn, your body.

Forget the conventional concerns — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

With some friends, the three poisons keep growing,

Study, reflection, and meditation weaken,

And loving kindness and compassion fall away.

Give up bad friends — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

With some teachers, your shortcomings fade away and

Abilities grow like the waxing moon.

Hold such teachers dear to you,

Dearer than your own body — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Locked up in the prison of their own patterning

Whom can ordinary gods protect?

Who can you count on for refuge?

Go for refuge in the Three Jewels — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

The suffering in the lower realms is really hard to endure.

The Sage says it is the result of destructive actions.

For that reason, even if your life is at risk,

Don’t engage in destructive actions — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

The happiness of the three worlds disappears in a moment,

Like a dewdrop on a blade of grass.

The highest level of freedom is one that never changes.

Aim for this — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

If all your mothers, who love you,

Suffer for time without beginning, how can you be happy?

To free limitless sentient beings,

Give rise to awakening mind — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

All suffering comes from wanting your own happiness.

Complete awakening arises from the intention to help others.

So, exchange completely your happiness

For the suffering of others — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even if someone, driven by desperate want,

Steals, or makes someone else steal, everything you own,

Dedicate to him your body, your wealth, and

All the good you’ve ever done or will do — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even if you have done nothing wrong at all

And someone still tries to take your head off,

Spurred by compassion,

Take all his or her evil into you — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even if someone broadcasts to the whole universe

Slanderous and ugly rumors about you,

In return, with an open and caring heart,

Praise his or her abilities — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even if someone humiliates you and denounces you

In front of a crowd of people,

Think of this person as your teacher

And humbly honor him — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even if a person you have cared for as your own child

Treats you as his or her worst enemy,

Lavish him or her with loving attention

Like a mother caring for her ill child — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even if your peers or subordinates,

Put you down to make themselves look better,

Treat them respectfully as you would your teacher:

Put them above you — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

When you are down and out, held in contempt,

Desperately ill, and emotionally crazed,

Don’t lose heart. Take into you

The suffering and negativity of all beings — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Even when you are famous, honored by all,

And as rich as the god of wealth himself,

Don’t be pompous. Know that the magnificence of existence

Has no substance — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

If you don’t subdue the opponent inside, your own anger,

Although you subdue opponents outside, they just keep coming.

Muster the forces of loving kindness and compassion

And subdue your own mind — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Sensual pleasures are like salty water:

The deeper you drink, the thirstier you become.

Any object that you attach to,

Right away, let it go — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Whatever arises in experience is your own mind.

Mind itself is free of any conceptual limitations.

Know that and don’t generate

Subject-object fixations — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

When you come across something you enjoy,

Though beautiful to experience, like a summer rainbow,

Don’t take it as real.

Let go of attachment — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

All forms of suffering are like dreaming that your child has died.

Taking confusion as real wears you out.

When you run into misfortune,

Look at it as confusion — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

If those who want to be awake have to give even their bodies,

What need is there to talk about things that you simply own.

Be generous, not looking

For any return or result — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

If you can’t tend to your needs because you have no moral discipline,

Then intending to take care of the needs of others is simply a joke.

Observe ethical behavior without concern

For conventional existence — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

For bodhisattvas who want to be rich in virtue

A person who hurts you is a precious treasure.

Cultivate patience for everyone,

Completely free of irritation or resentment — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Listeners and solitary buddhas, working only for their own welfare,

Are seen to practice as if their heads were on fire.

To help all beings, pour your energy into practice:

It’s the source of all abilities — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Understanding that emotional reactions are dismantled

By insight supported by stillness,

Cultivate meditative stability that passes right by

The four formless states — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Without wisdom, the five perfections

Are not enough to attain full awakening.

Cultivate wisdom, endowed with skill

And free from the three domains — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

If you don’t go into your own confusion,

You may just be a materialist in practitioner’s clothing.

Constantly go into your own confusion

And put an end to it — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

You undermine yourself when you react emotionally and

Grumble about the imperfections of other bodhisattvas.

Of the imperfections of those who have entered the Great Way,

Don’t say anything — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

When you squabble with others about status and rewards,

You undermine learning, reflection, and meditation.

Let go of any investment in your family circle

Or the circle of those who support you — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Abusive language upsets others

And undermines the ethics of a bodhisattva.

So, don’t upset people or

Speak abusively — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

When reactive emotions acquire momentum, it’s hard to make remedies work.

A person in attention wields remedies like weapons,

Crushing reactive emotions such as craving

As soon as they arise — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

In short, in everything you do,

Know what is happening in your mind.

By being constantly present and aware

You bring about what helps others — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

To dispel the suffering of beings without limit,

With wisdom freed from the three spheres

Direct all the goodness generated by these efforts

To awakening — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Following the teachings of the holy ones

On what is written in the sutras, tantras, and commentaries,

I set out these thirty-seven practices of a bodhisattva

For those who intend to train in this path.

Because I have limited intelligence and little education,

These verses are not the kind of poetry that delights the learned.

But because I relied on the teachings of the sutras and the revered

I am confident that The Practices of a Bodhisattva is sound.

However, because it’s hard for a person with limited intelligence like me

To fathom the depths of the great waves of the activity of bodhisattvas,

I ask the revered to tolerate

Any mistakes — contradictions, non sequiturs, and such.

From the goodness of this work, may all beings,

Through the supreme mind that is awake to what is ultimately and apparently true,

Not rest in any limiting position — existence or peace:

May they be like Lord All Seeing.

Tokmé, the monk, a teacher of scripture and logic, composed this text in a cave near the town of Ngülchu Rinchen for his own and others’ benefit

This the first step just before practice turning our mind away of samsara.

Second part we must develop three steps very important.

Renounciation: to be able to practice the right way , we need renounce to samsara

Bodhichitta: mind of unconditional love and compassion

The right view : aiming to liberate all being losing self grasping

Knowing how to practice the dharma how we take a practice, some of us think the vehicle we are isnt important. Well to take the right practice is like taking the right medicine , if you had flue taking a tea wont do much, but if you take flue medicine that will help us more.

Mahayana practice are able to become Vajrayana too it depends on our views and bodhicitta.

Vajrayana practices are radically different some got inside practices of the practice and more.

Lets say that years we been practicing Chenrezig and we still not having compassion and our tendency still the same well its time to change.

What do we mean by discovering or rediscovering our true nature means, get rib of all egotistical constructions, become more selfless.

Mercury’s transit in Gemini makes us curious about life and its possibilities, opens us up to new ideas and experiences. Our minds are quick and communication much more lively. We could use this 9 week process to learn, pick up a skill, enjoy movement - walking pacing running any move really, discover the local community on foot to open our minds to new possibilities, naming things, acquiring a new language skill, make connections, quench your curiosity of life.

Link to podcast

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

It’s opposite of Mercury in Sagittarius so it urges us to focus on snippets, small moments and immediate environment versus trying to find a bigger picture or long term plan. It’s the theme of 2021 with north node in Gemini - focus on making things, situations, life simple and take it in bite size. Don’t belong to a cult belong to an intelligent thought form based on information you have on hand. Future unfolding might be out of our hand but the current moment is something we right now hold the ownership of.

As Mercury in Gemini now comes with north node and south node on the opposite end, its a period where we would be required to relinquish one or more rigid belief about our life and our circumstances, release some fixed idea or interest and change course as its a mutable sign. When our mind is mutable, we change our mind about things and we are moving towards the Mercury retrograde when we would change our mind about things after 28 May further.

𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀.

Chiron is reaching out to this inquisitive mind, saying your healing is in moving forward and not in looking back. If our old wounds or our upbringing has kept our sense of exploration in cage, you would experience you banging against that cage like you fighting against your own old impulses and upbringing. The fear and hurt that stopped our sense of adventure or exploration comes to focus to talk through them and walk away from, grow out of. Our throat chakra is in focus here - what blocks it, what doesn’t allow us to express ourselves freely when we need and voice our choices. What doesn’t let our heart sing... out loud.

𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘁.

It’s not going to be a short process we have time till 11th July when this thought form and new experiences take form through a process of going back and forth. This week especially, there could be a fated encounter or a new snippet or a social media post or a meeting a connection which suddenly wakes you up to the cage or the fact that you are meant to move forward from here.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗽𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗵𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 "𝘂𝗻𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗰𝗸" 𝘂𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲.

It’s also a playing ground for us to move out of early conditioning of our mind - can we show to ourselves that we could move out of an old thought pattern ? Can we move out of an old belief that it is better to hide or deny what we truly think and feel ? Thoughts and feelings that are suppressed and disallowed come into focus as some sort of psychological congestion is being unclogged. Movement of the mind and thought is encouraged and cultivated. This is positive conditioning of the mind and deconditioning old though patterns may not feel easy but its the only way forward.

𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀.

Mercury and North node or rahu are meeting at the degree of “Newly Opened Lands” - there could be power and joy in thinking, visualizing, writing, drawing, discussing new beginnings which might be a bit ahead but still your mind can almost visualize how it’s supposed to be. Releasing some burden of old thought makes it easier to breath in that vision, live it in the minds, we must live it in our mind. It’s the unexperienced, undiscovered, unexplored field of potential. The potential we have been waiting to open up to, where the skilled parts of our brain and body is allowed full freedom by our own self to play out.

𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗻𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗸𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗮. 𝗦𝗼 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗮 𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝘀 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆.

The finger drops on the right line in the book sitting on your shelf for years, a stranger says a thing, we read a hurtful article in newspaper or social media, we see someone in our neighbourhood and it opens our mind, you watch a comedy & it opens you up, you spend time with a child or younger one & they say something meaningful, you change your immediate surroundings & that clicks calls you - each epiphany is unique and so is the road to that epiphany.

Not just that till 17th May as Mercury is reaching its longest elongation, a phase of gaining perspective due to distance - we would gain a unique perspective on past events especially events since February which would help us in the move forward.

It’s a virgin field of consciousness which just shifts your perspective and opens a gate of mind, previously closed to this possibility. It reconnects you to your mind with a clarity not experienced before. There is harmony of our own body in this, openness to life, innocence of heart who springs anew ready for a new ideal. You are now facing unfamiliar. Nothing is a sure shot but you want to try this thought form, you want to follow through on this train of thought and idea. Every step you move forward requires you to rise to the occasion where you don’t slip back in the old mind and old thought process. You will fall rise up again in this process till end of this Mercury cycle (11 July).

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲.

You have opportunity this week to formulate this vision, we have Saturn meet Mercury in a positive aspect on 12th, we have opportunity to put form to this thought process, see it play out in physical world, see some proof of it or get an assurance on it through an experience of life or through another person who has experienced it. It solidifies our mind that we are going in the right direction and might give us capability to get some supporters on the way to it.

𝗗𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻, 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗮��𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝘄𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿.

Luck Will Fly

Fair Game fic I already posted on ao3 and decided to post here

it’s basically a baby bird acquisition oneshot

“Um, Clover?” The young huntress began and immediately Clover has a tight breath stuck in him.

Ruby Rose is known for impeccable leadership and clever strategies that rely heavily upon teamwork. As per of her skills, she has an air of confidence and hope.

Right now in the academy’s grand hallways where Clover was simply making his way to the kitchen, Ruby approaches him with a frown.

Despite the short amount of time knowing her, that frown means something bad is happening to a love one.

He instinctively has the urge to go find Qrow.

“Is something wrong?” He asks and his old teachers would reprimand him for speaking with such a tone. Captains are meant to be collected and stable. Yet the thought of anything bad happening to the dark haired man sends spikes into the Ace Leader’s chest.

The young adult, still a teenager to Clover’s mind, sends him a freaked surprise that’s shifts into confusion, “No, I don’t believe so. I’m wondering if you’ve seen Uncle Qrow lately.”

He wants to say that every time he sees Qrow, he’s beautiful and stunning and takes his breath away. But this is Qrow’s niece, those thoughts are highly inappropriate to share out loud.

That and as much as Clover dislikes admitting, he hasn’t seen Qrow lately.

“Not really,” Clover said, “He’s the first one to leave the meetings and so far has denied my invitations.” Ruby raises a brow at that last word. A flushed heat crawled up his neck as he quickly clarifies, “Invitations to tea or game nights, that is.”

“Uh huh, yeah he hasn’t been hanging out with any of us lately,” Ruby tapped her chin, “but it’s always the same excuse.”

“I gotta take care of something,” Clover quotes, recalling the hurried tone the huntsman used. “I assumed it was for your or your teams’ sake.”

She shrugged, “I thought it was about you.”

Clover blinked, not at all understanding how she connected those dots.

Because throughout all this time, Clover wants those dots connected, he desperately wants Qrow to give him some sort of sign that he likes him back. They flirt at each other left and right and Clover hopes for something else. He wants his advice for Qrow to get through that brain of his.

Qrow’s always deflecting compliments, shrugging off his self-worth but he’s been doing less so each time Clover manages to get that soft vulnerable look on his face, like he’s no longer hiding in a shadow of doubt and misery.

But right now, from the sounds of it, Qrow is distancing himself from everyone.

Clover didn’t question further, never reading anything to worry from the distracted look in Qrow’s face.

“Whatever this ‘something’ is,” Clover said, “it’s keeping his entire attention. Any idea what it could be, Miss Rose?”

The girl strokes her chin as if she had a long beard, her foot tapping along, “Hmm, if he’s taking care of this something for so long and in secret then maybe there’s a pattern to follow. What else has he been doing?”

The Ace Leader recalled the past week.

Unfortunately (is it though?) he spent quite a lot of it staring at Qrow’s ass.

Look, Clover can be a weak man, give him some slack.

Aside from that, he has seen Qrow always heading towards the gardens but when he passes by the floor-to-ceiling windows, the luxurious garden is empty.

“I think I know where he is,” he said, already walking with the huntress by his side.

“Oh I caught him slicing apples the other day,” Ruby brought up as it is the most important clue, “He always does that when I was younger even though he prefers to just eat to the core.”

It’s a short walk to the academy’s garden, tended daily by both students and staff to create a crisp and clean grass lawn. Flower bushes and beds are symmetrically lines down for sidewalks and a path leading towards a gazebo and groves. Along the way there are stone benches under the shade of tall trees, evenly trimmed and full of leaves.

Sure enough, the garden is cleared but the two leaders easily spot a bench with a napkin with apple slices.

“Huh, maybe we missed him,” Ruby wondered reaching down for a slice.

But then suddenly something small and dark swoops down from the tree, landing right next to the snack.

A black crow cawed at them.

Clover tilted his head, glancing at the bird then up to the tree. High in the branches, it’s a bit hard to spot a nest of twigs.

“Is Qrow known to leave out food for birds?” He asked and then he noticed Ruby has the crow on her arm. “Wow, it must really like you.”

Ruby beamed, gently petting the bird’s head, “I know.”

There was a genuine look of joy on the girl, reminding Clover that once upon a time he was like that, back when he was bright and determined to make the world a better place. He still has that determination, still is joyful, but even he has to admit that with experience and age comes a sense of doubt he can’t fight off.

Which is why Clover is happy to have the Beacon huntsmen here, they all bring in a new found hope and support. He won’t lie, he was never one hundred percent prepared when he and his team entered General Ironwood’s inner circle. The new and magical revelation still shocks him, so teaming up with Qrow and his kids were a lucky sign in Clover’s eyes.

Speaking of eyes, there is a glint of mischief sparkles in the girl’s silver eyes, a teasing smile on her lips, “I bet that this crow really likes you too.”

“I don’t have much experience with birds,” he warns as Ruby raises her arm up to get the bird closer to him. A cousin of his had a pet cockatoo, that bird was territorial and picky. It even got a good few pecks at Clover’s fingers.

“Aw,” she whined, still presented the bird up, “but this one is pretty and nice. Right, Clover?”

The crow cawed loudly at Ruby and Clover nearly backed away when the bird’s black feathers ruffled up.

He couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight of its feathers puffing up, making it seem bigger and its red eyes tiny. Once the feathers relaxed, Clover gently and slowly reached over to pet the bird.

“Yeah, he’s a very pretty bird.”

Ruby’s grin went big, not that Clover could understand why, he’s too busy petting the bird. Mostly he’s too amazed at how calm and friendly the bird trusts him to pet the wings.

“Would you say that you love the bird?” Ruby innocently batted her eyelashes. He pulled his hand back as the crow suddenly flapped its wings and pecked at Ruby’s arm. “OW! UNCLE QROW!”

“Uh,” Clover dumbly said, “Qrow?”

As Ruby waved her arm up and down, the bird flies up and Clover watches how that tiny black mass grows and what is dropping back down is a handsome man with red eyes and red cheeks.

Qrow is giving his niece a frown that is trying so hard to not be a smile, “Okay I think you have said enough, brat.”

Rubbing her arm, Ruby sticks her tongue out defiantly. In return, Qrow ruffles up her hair.

Meanwhile, Clover is staring with his jaw dropped.

That bird… was it? Wait no wait- magic real, yep, recalling that- but Qrow and crow and pretty birds?

If he had more rational thought (because half his mind is always focused on Qrow) maybe, just maybe, Clover would remember that he has been informed of the existence of magic and wizards and gods and such.

But of course leave it to Qrow Branwen to always leave Clover Ebi senseless and awed.

“So I’m guessing from the look on your face that Jimmy didn’t tell you everything about me.”

“Ahhhhh,” is falling out of his mouth.

Neither man notices the way Ruby is giggling, her eyes darting between them.

Or well, Qrow is at least ignoring her. Every time he glances over to his niece his cheeks flare up in a redness that just wows Clover.

He wants to kiss those cheeks, watch how the pale skin easily shades into red under the faintest of touches. Those red eyes must look gorgeous when vivid emotions take over, freeing the man from any burdens of the world. Clover wishes desperately to have that honor of sending that sense of security and freedom to the dark haired man.

Tiny chirps interrupt the three hunters.

Qrow sighs and with swift, practice motion, feathers dawned on him. His small form picks up an apple slice and he flies to the nest.

Another chirp arises, sounding more pleased, and Qrow returns to the ground, his boots making a thud noise on the landing.

Ruby is on her uncle’s arm with a wide, excited smile, “Is that a bird up there? That’s whose the apples are for? Can we meet it?”

“It’s a ‘her’ and no,” he shakes his head, “She’s too young to fly down yet.”

Staring up, Clover could barely see movement in the nest. Crumbles of apple chunks scatter over the edge and he could see a tiny beak peer over. Miniscule black eyes meet Clover’s and he is startled by the amount of intelligence and curiosity that little creature has.

“She’s all alone?” Somehow Clover regained his voice and this is his first sentence. It’s also not the first time he said that question, tinged with sadden when he reaches the end of a rescue mission.

“Yeah,” Qrow’s own voice echoes something lonely and empathetic, “She’s been crying out each morning but no one came back for her. I finally found her and,” slowly, almost unnoticed, Qrow had Ruby under his arm, “I couldn’t leave her.”

Their red capes swayed with the gentle breeze, creating a picture of wings wrapped around them.

Ruby smiles up to her uncle, “Does she have a name?”

He shrugged, “I don’t exactly speak bird but I think she’s too young to remember if she was even named.”

A forlorn gaze takes over those red eyes, a familiar sadness tugging onto old handles sunken into the huntsman’s heart.

“Well I think she’s lucky to have you,” Clover comments, sending the other man a wink. It’s become too much of a habit to stop now, not that Clover wants to stop winking at Qrow. Still, it gets Qrow flustered before he could avoid the compliment.

“That’s it!” Ruby gasp, her whole body jittering, “Her name will be Lucky!”

Clover grins so wide it hurts.

Qrow groans.

“I- Oh Brothers no, Ruby, kiddo, no.”

“I think it’s a fitting name.”

“Of course you do, Lucky Charm.”

“Nope,” he shakes his head, “that can’t be my nickname anymore. Otherwise I’ll be very confused.”

Qrow scoffed, “What am I going to feed you apple slices?”

“I wouldn’t mind,” Clover finished with a wink.

Qrow groans, covering his face with his hands.

“Can I feed Lucky?” Ruby asks earnestly, already holding up an apple slice.

Her uncle uncovers his face, taking the slice, “Sorry, kiddo, she hasn’t met people yet. Young birds obverses a lot before they want to get closer. I kind of have to teach her the ropes.”

Ruby lightly punches his shoulder, “Then it’s a good thing she has the best teacher in the world.”

Qrow absolutely preens under the praise, so much like any other time Clover compliments him. He still scratches the back of his neck, tugging a few strands out of place. Clover has the urge to brush them back into an even shape, feel the heat in Qrow’s neck.

“You got everything you need for Lucky?” Clover checks, “We don’t need to gather up worms, do we?”

The caped duo naturally gags at the thought.

“Please don’t tell me you have worm bait, you fisherman,” Qrow pleas.

“Alright I won’t tell you.”

“Gross,” Ruby insightfully adds.

“I got this covered.” The shapeshifter assures, “Her flight and tail feathers just need to grow in and then she’ll be all set.”

Without another word, Qrow jumps up and a crow is flapping about. He flies higher up to the nest and he and Lucky chirp at each other.

Clover still can’t believe the transformation happened right before his eyes. It was so smooth and flawless to be considered a trick of the eye. Nope it was real magic, not something like a relic where it is basically in stasis, but magic as a muscle or a performance. It was definitely eye opening, not that Qrow doesn’t already do that.

For precautionary measures he takes a seat on the bench. “So, right, magic, that’s still a thing?”

The young huntress has the decency to silently laugh at him, “Yep, it is totally a thing.”

“And Qrow’s able to do this because?” Clover trailed off, not sure if it’s a sensitive topic or not.

A clouded look goes over Ruby’s face, “It apparently happened before I was born. Only knew about it a few months ago.” She sits beside the Ace Op, letting her toes tap together in an offbeat rhythm. “But now that I think back, a lot of things make sense. I would find feathers on his cape and oh yeah, he gets really distracted by shiny stuff.”

An undignified squawk is heard above.

“Really now?” Clover teases, “I’ll have to keep that in mind.”

This time the squawk sounds flustered.

Spending the rest of their down time in the garden becomes Clover’s favorite thing for the next few weeks.

It’s a quiet thing, birdwatching in a way as Qrow is the one in charge of the actual care taking for little Lucky. Since Ruby and Clover knew so little on birds, Qrow often shared bits of stuff he learned about throughout his experience of being a crow.

The way Qrow described his new perspective of the world, a place so big and new. He’s able to see places untouched by man, high tree tops or steep skyscraper tops. Suffice to say, the huntsman does not fear heights.

A new energy washed over Qrow as he rambles about stuff he has kept secret. Ruby is just as eager to listen to her uncle’s stories. Clover feels honored for being trusted with it.

The man is just so relaxed in his element, surrounded by nature with a bright eyed youngling oohing and awing at right moments in his stories. Tales of a crow plucking shiny accessories out of propitious folks (it was later returned by the way) and getting into places birds normally don’t have access too.

Clover doesn’t know Beacon or Signal teachers by name but apparently Qrow was a handful for them.

Sometimes Ruby doesn’t join them in the garden, leaving Clover to wait for the crow to finish his bird duties.

Today it seems like Lucky wants to spread her wings. Her chirps forming into a song that Qrow has taught her.

“She’s getting restless,” Qrow rubs his neck, slumping down on the ground so that his back rests against the bench. “I… I think it really is almost time for…”

“For her to leave the nest?” Clover lightly teases, he understands the sudden solemnness that is clouding on the other man but he’ll try his best to clear it. “Lucky will be able to fly with you.”

Qrow clenches his hands over his knees, “That’s not always a good thing. She’ll get hurt just like-“

“Hey,” he moves down to sit on Qrow’s level, getting dirt on his white uniform is the last thing on his mind as Clover takes Qrow’s hand, “She’s in your care. She’ll always want to return back to you.”

They’re no longer talking about a bird, not when their last mission had a close call with Ruby apparently pulling a Yang. (The nieces just have a knack of almost getting eaten alive by big Grimm)

Qrow won’t meet his eyes, “Lucky will eventually find a real flock to be with. I’m just temporary.”

“No you’re not,” he states, reaching over to hold Qrow’s face. His red eyes still hold some lingering doubt. “You raised her and while I don’t know much about birds but I know they’re smart. She’ll remember you for your kindness, patience, and most importantly your heart.”

It almost hurts Clover to see Qrow act like he’s never been told he’s all of those things before. He may not ever know the lengths of Qrow’s pain but he wants to be there for him, to remind him that he really is a good person.

Qrow still stares with vulnerability that is so pure and sacred. Clover will cherish this sight.

“I…” Qrow begins but it’s like something is stuck in his throat, “Clover I…” Hearing his name uttered so softly sent a shiver down Clover’s spine. “Yeah, I guess, yeah Lucky will remember all of that.”

Both have forgotten how their hands interlock, a firm grasp as they hear chirping continue.

Oh yeah, chirping, it’s getting louder.

Instantly both men snap their eyes up to see Lucky flapping her wings, her feet gripping the edge of the nest.

Clover’s breath is stuck, his entire being trained to help and protect but Qrow squeezes his hand.

Completely immune to Clover’s tension and anxiety, Qrow actually sighs with relief. Sadly he smiles, “She really is one restless bird.”

Lucky finally beats her wings in a steady rhythm and jumps off the nest. Next thing Clover knows, that little crow is soaring above their heads.

A new feeling hits Clover like a sucker punch.

Clover wonders if Qrow feels this way every time one of his kids are sent on a mission, this flurry of panic and worry and concern wrapped around a tiny voice that says ‘they’re all grown up and can take care of their selves’.

It feels like a heart attack to be honest.

“Are you okay Clover?”

A gentle hand slides over his cheek, damp.

Oh, Clover belatedly realizes, he’s crying.

“I’m fine,” he tries to say steadily. It comes out wobbly.

Qrow gives him a knowing smile, already whipping the tears away, “Shouldn’t that be my line?”

“Right, right of course,” Clover agrees, already a little embarrassed because why is he crying, it’s Qrow he should be comforting.

He spent weeks watching Qrow take care of Lucky. That baby bird probably doesn’t even know Clover. All Clover really contributed was carrying fruit for them.

Still though, out of curiosity and maybe envy, he complains, “How are you not a sobbing mess?”

“Eh,” Qrow shrugs, “I got all my waterworks out when Ruby dressed up like me for All Hollow’s Eve.”

Rubbing away the rest of his tears, Clover chuckles, “I bet you have that saved on your scroll.”

“What kind of uncle would I be if I didn’t?”

If there’s one thing Qrow loves to brag about, it’s about being Ruby’s and Yang’s super cool uncle. Now after witnessing the vast amount of domesticity coming off of them as of late, Clover sees what he’s missing out on.

Clover could smile a hundred different kinds but none is like the one Qrow dawns at this moment.

It’s a tiny one yet it expresses so much love he has for his family.

A small part of him hopes to be a reason Qrow smiles just as lovingly.

“Hey, look at that,” Qrow points up and while Clover doesn’t want to take his eyes off the man, he looks up to see a familiar crow start circling down to them.

“I told you she’ll return.”

Lucky swoops around and lands on top of Qrow’s knee, chirping like a singer.

Gently, the shapeshifter brushes his fingers against the feathers, a cooing sound coming from the bird. They’re all lost in this moment, carefully watching the how the bird blinks up to them.

Then to Clover’s surprise, Lucky hops over to Clover’s knee.

“Does she know me?” He asks, hesitant and quiet.

Qrow rolls his eyes, “I told you, birds always observe before getting close. She probably knows you as the snack boy.”

The joke doesn’t shake Clover’s apprehension on having such a small and important creature on him. Her eyes are intelligent, completely relaxed with Clover. He takes a chance and carefully raises a hand to pet her.

His hand keeps hesitating, centimeters away from touching her, almost trembling.

“It’s okay,” Qrow whispers, not daring his voice to break the quietness between them, “She trusts you.”

Hearing that confidence in Qrow’s voice is what gets Clover to finally reach Lucky, her feathers so soft under his calloused fingertips.

“She likes me,” he says with such surprise and bubbling joy over this little bird.

His eyes flicker over to Qrow and again there’s a soft look on the dark haired man. He just finds more ways to steal Clover’s heart.

As much as both men want to stay in this moment, Lucky decides her goodbyes are done.

She flaps a few times and then off she flies.

“Are you going after her?”

Clover kind of expected Qrow to take off by now but instead Qrow rejoins their hands. A new glint is in his red eyes as he stares into Clover.

“No, I’m good here.”

This spring, while tapping a stand of maple trees, I remembered that this is one of my favorite stories.

It’s one of my favorites because nothing violent happens in it. At every turn, Kwezens is met with very basic, core Nishnaabeg values -- love, compassion and understanding. [...] She already understands the importance of observation and learning from our animal teacher, when she watches the squirrel so carefully and then mimics its actions. [...] Her mother, in turn, meets her daughter’s discovery with love and trust. [...] Kwezens then takes her Elders to the tree already trusting that she will be believed [...], and that she will be heard. [...] Kwezens learned a tremendous amount over a two-day period –- self-led, driven by both her own curiosity and her own personal desire to learn. She learned to trust herself, her family and her community. [...] She learned how to interact with the spirit of maple. She learned both from the land and with the land. [...] She comes to know maple sugar with the support of her family and Elders. She comes to know maple sugar in the context of love. To me, this is what coming into wisdom within a Michi Saagiig Nishnaabe epistemology looks like [...]. It lacks overt coercion and authority, values so normalized within mainstream western pedagogy [...]. The land, aki, is both context and process. [...] Coming to know is the pursuit of whole body intelligence practiced in the context of freedom, and when realized collectively it generates generations of loving, creative, innovative, self-determining, inter-dependent and self-regulating community minded individuals. [...]

It is critical to avoid the assumption that this story takes place in pre-colonial times because Nishnaabeg conceptualizations of time and space present an on-going intervention to linear thinking -- this story happens in various incarnations all over our territory every year in March when the Nishnaabeg return to the sugar bush. Kwezen’s presence (and the web of kinship relations that she is composed of) is complicated by her fraught relationality to the tenacity of settler colonialism, and her very presence simultaneously shatters the disappearance of Indigenous women and girls from settler consciousness [...] while physically disrupting settler colonial commodification and ownership of land through the implicit assumption that she is supposed to be there. [...]

What if Kwezens had accepted the permanence of settler colonialism as an unmovable reality?

What if Kwezens had no access to the sugar bush because of land dispossession, environmental contamination or global climate change?

What if the trauma and pain of ongoing colonial gendered violence has made it impossible for her mama to believe her or for her mama to reach out so gently rub her lower back at that critical point? What if that same trauma and pain prevented her aunties and elders to gather around and support her when there were technical difficulties?

What if settler-colonial parenting strategies positioned the child as “less believable” than an adult?

What if Kwezens had been in a desk at a school that didn’t honour at its core her potential within Michi Saahiih Nishnaabeg intelligence? Or if she had been in an educational context where having an open heart was a liability instead of a gift? What if she had not been running around, exploring experimenting, and observing the squirrel -- completely engaged in a Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg ways of knowing? What if she hadn’t been on the land at all?

What if Kwezens lived in a world where no one listened to girls? Or where she had been missing or murdered before she ever made it out to the sugar bush?

What if the university got ahold of the sugar bush and made Kwezens get SSHRC funding before she could go out in the field?

What if she was home reading the course outline of someone else’s learning objectives? What if she never gave the sap to her doodoom but instead went to her computer to type up her research project?

What if Kwezens’ motivation for learning wasn’t her own curiosity and joy, but recognition within the state-run educational system?

What then?

10 Things I’ve Let Go and How This Has Set Me Free

By Sara Fabian

“I do not fix problems. I fix my thinking. Then problems fix themselves.” ~ Louise Hay

Looking back on my life, I came to understand that perfection was my worst enemy. I was raised in an environment of high expectation, and every day in school felt like I was competing with others and fighting to be the best in class.

At the age of ten I believed I was stupid just because my brain couldn’t work out physics and math. I was good with literature, arts, and foreign languages, but that wasn’t a sign of brilliance in the Eastern-European culture that shaped me.

Much later, as a grown-up woman, I didn’t see myself as good enough, beautiful enough, smart enough, or successful enough. I felt unworthy of being loved by a wonderful man, unworthy of getting a good paycheck to reflect my skills and talents, too unworthy to apply for a tempting position at work.

My life looks completely different today, and I embrace the new me with much gratitude and joy. I love myself as I am. I am happily married and doing what I was born to do in the world.

So how did this shift happen?

I can recall myself feeling overwhelmed after a long meeting at work, and looking for some inspiration to help me release the stress and feel better. As I was searching for The Secret movie on the YouTube, I “accidentally” opened another video that went straight into my heart: You Can Heal Your Life, by Louise Hay.

Today, I know that was no accident. The teacher shows up when the student is ready—so true! I was so touched and absorbed by that movie, I couldn’t stop watching. Listening to Louise was pure magic; every single word went straight into my heart. I finally felt home, in a space where it was perfectly okay to be me: “I love and approve myself as I am. I am whole and complete and life loves me.”

Over the next year, I discovered the work of other enlightened souls—Wayne Dyer, Byron Katie, and Don Miguel Ruiz—inviting me to precious moments of self-reflection and deep learning. Their teaching helped me to let go of old thinking patterns and cultural limiting beliefs that didn’t serve me well.

After much trial and error applying their wisdom to my life, I have found a new sense of freedom. Here’s how:

1. I’ve let go of the need to be perfect.

I am perfectly beautiful and beautifully imperfect, and this is what allows me to be me.

Perfection is an illusion—it doesn’t exist. I stopped stressing myself out trying to be perfect and now I am always aiming for “good enough.” I have learned to embrace my mistakes as much needed opportunities for growth, blessings in disguise that make me wiser. If I fail at anything, it doesn’t mean I’m a failure, because I am not what I do. Sometimes we win, sometimes we learn. We never lose.

“Your best is going to change from moment to moment: it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.” ~Don Miguel Ruiz

2. I’ve let go of the need to be busy all the time.

Being in a rush isn’t a sign of virtue. I have learned to listen to my body, and I no longer feel guilty for doing nothing. I know I sometimes need to recharge the batteries of my body and soul, and I don’t feel like I owe anyone any explanation for doing that.

If I don’t have time for myself, I make it. Watching a good movie, listening to relaxing music, reading a good book, singing, taking a walk to connect with nature—I do whatever makes my heart sing.

“I am a human being, not a human doing. Don’t equate your self-worth with how well you do things in life. You aren’t what you do. If you are what you do, then when you don’t…you aren’t.” ~Dr. Wayne Dyer

3. I’ve let go of self-criticism.

I pay attention to my inner talk; I don’t call myself names, and I treat myself with dignity and respect. I stopped telling myself things I would never tell a good friend. I am enough, whole, and complete.

I have come to understand that in life, we don’t get what we want. We get what we think we deserve. That’s why it’s necessary to believe in ourselves and see ourselves as enough and worthy of the best things life has to offer.

“You’ve been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” ~Louise Hay

4. I’ve let go of blaming.

I now know that each time I blame someone else, I am making myself a victim. Blaming others for taking my time, my money, or my love is unfair, because I always choose how much I give and to whom. No one can hurt me or upset me without my conscious (and often unconscious) consent.

Instead, I now take responsibility for the way I feel, act, and think. I am in charge of my actions, and I know my future is the result of my current choices. I am what I believe and whatever I choose to be.

“All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, it will not change you. You may succeed in making another feel guilty about something by blaming, but you won’t succeed in changing whatever it is about you that is making you unhappy.” ~Wayne Dyer

5. I’ve let go of judging.

I know that everyone is on their own journey, and my job is to focus on my own. I also know that each time I am judgmental with people, I’m reacting to something that bothers me about myself. If I believe you are mean, it means I can also be mean; how could I see that in you, otherwise?

“Placing the blame or judgment on someone else leaves you powerless to change your experience; taking responsibility for your beliefs and judgment gives you the power to change them.” ~Byron Katie

6. I’ve let go of making assumptions about what other people feel, want, or think.

I am not them, so there’s no way to know what they’re feeling and thinking.

I stopped making up imaginary scenarios and letting my mind play with me. Each time I find myself disturbed by what people do or say, I know it’s time for a reality check.

From “The Work” of Byron Katie, I’ve learned to examine the thoughts that trouble me and ask myself: “Is that true?” Many of my assumptions likely aren’t. For example, I might assume someone doesn’t like me, when really she’s just having a bad day. Or maybe she’s just shy. Not everyone is the same.

The moment I realize I can’t know what this person thinks, simply because I am not her, my mind gets clear and I am able to meet her with an open heart.

“I found that my unquestioned assumptions were the cause of all war and all peace in my world.” ~Byron Katie

7. I’ve let go of competing with others.

I now know that my need to fight is nothing but my ego’s scream for self-validation. I don’t need anyone to lose any game so that I can feel good about myself. I love harmony, collaboration, and win-wins.

I’ve stopped comparing myself to others. I choose to connect with people from a place of love instead of fear, and I believe in abundance. I choose to believe that we live in a supportive Universe, where there is enough of everything and for everyone, including myself.

“Love is cooperation rather than competition.” ~Dr. Wayne Dyer

8. I’ve let go of chasing happiness.

I no longer project my happiness into an imaginary future, hoping that someday, when I have that job, that house, that car, that success, I will be happy. I have learned to find happiness in the small pleasures of life, and I embrace the only reality that is, the present moment, with gratitude and much joy.

I stopped waiting for the weekends to feel like living because each day is a gift and every single moment is precious and equally important.

The day I shifted my focus from stressed to blessed, everything changed. I am thankful for everything I am and for everything I have: a healthy body and mind; a loving family; a few genuine, last longing friendships I’ve made over time; and a job I love and believe in.

“I have noticed that the Universe loves gratitude. The more grateful you are, the more goodies you get.” ~Louise Hay

9. I’ve let go of worrying about the future.

I accept that there are things in life that I cannot control, no matter how hard I might try. Each time I find myself worrying, I keep telling myself “Time will tell.”

I might not always get what I want, but I know I always get what I need. I trust the flow of life, and choose to believe we live in an intelligent Universe, where everything unfolds perfectly. Sometimes in life, even the time needs time.

“Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don’t have to like it…it’s just easier if you do.” ~Byron Katie

10. I’ve let go of pleasing others.

I no longer seek external validation so that I can feel liked or accepted. Worrying about what others think is a waste of time. Other people’s opinion of me is all about them and what they see in me, filtered through their lenses; it has zero to do with me.

I’ve stopped expecting others to give me what I wasn’t giving myself: love, care, and attention. Loving myself as a whole—body, mind, and soul—is not selfish. I keep my cup full of self-love, and I take good care of my needs and my heart’s desires.

I have learned how to make powerful choices for my highest good without worrying about disappointing people. People disappoint themselves by setting expectations for who they want me to be or what they want me to do.

Saying no to things we don’t want to do is a learned practice and a sign of self-care. If it sounds like a “should,” I don’t do it. I go for the things that feel like a want. My wants come from myself, instead of being imposed on me by others. I always choose how I am spending my precious time and with whom. I know my time is my life, and it’s never coming back.

My life is about me and I have the right to make my own choices. Life is to be lived, not existed, and I choose to live it authentically, with no apologies and no regrets.

“Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.” ~Don Miguel Ruiz

—

My self-transformation into the mindful person I am today didn’t happen overnight. It’s been an ongoing process that required continuous inner work.

Today, I am still a student at School of Life, and every day is a great opportunity for new learning. I know that I have the power to create my own reality, by the way I think. So I make sure I nourish my mind with healthy thoughts, knowing my mind has power.

And now, I would like to hear from you. Are you holding on to any of these things? What’s preventing you from letting them go?

Not mine. This was taken from tinybuddha.com and written by Sara Fabian.

#this is one of the most inspirational posts i have ever read from the website tinybuddha #i feel that everyone should be able to learn some thing from this #sara fabian #tiny buddha #buddhist #motivational #life #life quotes #beautiful #mindfulness #positivity

July Full Moon Free Reading

⭐REVEALED BELOW⭐

💎🔷💎🔷💎🔷💎🔷💎

A: Ascended Master Mataji and Crimson Cuprite.

B: Ascended Master El Morya and Blue Star Sapphire.

C: Ascended Master Serapis Bey and Clear Calcite.

D: Ascended Master Yoganada and Rhodonite.

💎🔷💎🔷💎🔷💎🔷💎

Meaning:

A. Asc Master Mataji/Crimson Cuprite

[Releif & Repair] This card brings the blessing of relief and repair. This card brings a warm nurturing energy that suggests restoring and rebalancing your body. Right now you may be feeling spiritually diminished or perhaps overwhelmed, over-stretched, or mentally physically or emotionally exhausted. Take time to relax for yourself, and use the restorative life-force of the Earth to strengthen, fortify, and nourish you. Walking in a spiritual light feels great, but afterwards the body and mind can feel burnt out, overloaded and confused. You may feel emotionally unstable and even overwhelmed by attaining your inspiration and dreams. Right now there may be no real plan as to how you can bring them to life utilizing practical steps.

You must learn how to balance your spiritual side and devotion and also care for your body. There are times when your body needs time to simply be, and express itself in a spontaneous and carefree way. Channel your inner child and give yourself over to play. You will also need discipline to continue to grow on your spiritual path and heal yourself. If you balance that discipline with a self loving, and self caring attitude, it won't be so difficult to keep up. The Oracle of relief and repair comes with a message about your spiritual growth- You may not be aware of it, but you are learning to call more spiritual light into your body, your mind, and your life. If you have been praying or meditating more often or perhaps opening your mind to new levels of consciousness, your soul has been growing even if you don't quite feel it or recognize it consciously, keep going.

Take a short rest and repair now so that you do not become unwell or overloaded later on. You are being given the gift of healing from the universe when you need it most. This Oracle also indicates that any situation that may appear to be never-ending is not so, any broken heart or defeated will; or apparent failure, can, and will be resolved and restored through the universe. There will be a blessing of relief and repair upon you and your life situation soon.

B. Asc Master El Morya/Blue star sapphire

[Higher Will] This ascended Master card brings you the blessing of higher will. There is a great plan of divine love unfolding throughout the universe, and the fulfillment of your divine destiny is included. Sometimes it may seem hard to trust in a higher will, but if you do, you can bring a feeling of great relief that even though you don't have all the answers, or all the control, everything will still work out beautifully in your world. Set ego aside, and do not be afraid or frustrated when things don't go according to plan.

Your mind is not always privy to the workings of the universe, but you don't need to be in order to be happy, free, and manifesting your destiny. Trust in the universe now. In your life at present, a higher will is at work. Of course, it is always in operation, but there are times where it may be hard to see or believe. You may know, intellectually, that the universe is helping you always, but emotionally, you may sometimes feel insecure, uncertain or challenged by what is happening in your life. What is causing you uncertainty now will change in time.

As you grow through it, you will naturally access increased understanding, acceptance, and even joyful appreciation of how incredibly creative, and intelligent life, and the universe, truly is; and you will be amazed to see your spiritual journey unfold. Though sometimes growth can bring suffering, and it may be difficult for the mind to let go of ideas and expectations and learn to believe in what is, it is always a gift, even if we can't quite see how at the time. Sometimes higher will will ask that you cultivate patience, there is no point to rush ahead on your path, but be ready to teach, share and shine with those who you are destined to assist. Your voice will not be lost in the darkness.

Feel joyful and enjoy the moment that you are in, learn to love the foundation of the building as much as the successful completion of the task. Though it is a mystery as to how the universe and a higher will is working its magic in your life, it communicates with you everyday, every moment, through the simple truth of your own divinity. If you are feeling anxiety impatience, uncertainty, guilt, shame or anger; or even excitement and joy that a plan is coming together, this Oracle brings you a reassuring message. You can do everything you can, and then let go- trust that a higher will is working for your best interest, and will help you manifest your most soul-satisfying success at the perfect time, and in the perfect way.

C. Asc Master Serapis Bey/Clear calcite

[Karmic Grace] This card brings a blessing of Karmic Grace. There are many ways to learn and grow, some are joyful, and some are more challenging. Sometimes a challenge can be resolved through profound struggle that forces you to transform in such a way that you can never go back to what has been. Struggle can be a painfully deep experience for the mind, body and emotions, and yet, what is gained from this experience is a multiplicity of blessings- personal power, freedom, insight, self-respect and wisdom. These qualities then help you live a better life where the past pain need not be repeated. Other times blessings can be gained through joyful experience. Sometimes the struggle is what will bring you the greatest spiritual progress, and sometimes a more joyful path will show you how to grow best.

The universe loves you and will give you what you most need to help you fulfill your Divine destiny. The struggles we encounter in life can be challenging enough without adding unnecessary guilt, shame or judgment to the mix. There are times when the path of life becomes easier, flowing and effortless, shining with radiant grace; and in those moments we feel as though we are doing something right and the universe is affirming and validating us. Everything just falls into place and we feel blessed. What can be more difficult to accept is that there is grace in your struggles to. The Divine, in its infinite love for you, will empower you to fulfill your innate potential. For some that might be a gentle journey of progress, less challenging to the mind, body and Soul. It may be appropriate to spend a lifetime focused on tranquility and feeling supported. However, there may be times in anyone's life that you experience challenge, and this frequently accompanies accelerated spiritual growth. When this happens, it is what will serve you best. Even the most intense paths that include experiences of trauma or abuse will be able to look forward to the times of lightness and joy.

What you need to remember is not to judge yourself, or think that you are doing something wrong when life gets difficult. It is actually a sign that you are going through an accelerated phase of spiritual growth and the blessings that come from it will be what you need and want the most. Avoid the temptation to judge oneself in the struggles of life and to wonder if this is an act of karma. The guilt, shame and judgement make situations more difficult; don't do this to yourself or to others. Understand that where there is struggle, there is opportunity for breakthrough to be grasped by the soul. This opportunity can come to you through this method of growth. You will have other times that are more joyful too, so there is no need to worry.

Some souls choose to have lifetimes where much struggle characterizes the early phase of their life, preparing them for great work- a much lighter and more joyful experience in the second half of their life. Except that the karmic grace bestows upon you the best way to grow and manifests your divinity in every moment. You don't have to understand it, but to accept and trust in it, you need to believe that you are truly loved by the universe.

D. Asc Master Yoganada/Rhodonite

[Empowered Service] This ascended Master card brings the blessing of empowered service. It is your time to assume your place in the world, like the Masters who serve the loving hand of the Divine. You have been asking for your purpose to be more clearly unveiled and manifested in the world.

You have endured lessons of patience. You have learned that spiritual progress can be made even without the results being immediately obvious. Now it's time to surrender your personal desires to a larger plan. Know what you are capable of and step into the next level of empowered service to the greater plan of divine love unfolding. Some of the most difficult and most spiritually empowering lessons that you will master on this plane are those of endurance and continued effort in the absence of immediately perceivable results. Life may not always seem glamorous or radiant but being able to walk in the light even when you are in times of darkness is one of the most advanced lessons your soul can master.

You are the light that can be relied upon to shine where it is most needed of course in the darkness, with total faith and unconditional trust. This is the true work of a powerful soul with great compassion. You are willing to feel the light, and yet not leave the darkness behind, but rather stay and shine your light for as long as those you are meant to serve are in need of it. As you continue to progress on your spiritual journey, you are gifted with the experience of being empowered to serve in new ways or at a new level of wisdom, potency and effectiveness. Your method of reaching people will either become very clear to you or evolve into a new expression that will better match your increased power.

When the Oracle of empowered service comes to you, there are particular messages to hear from your higher guidance at this time. Trust in your abilities. You do not have to compare or compete with any other. The people places and situations you are here to help in this lifetime have been selected at a higher level long before your incarnation. Additionally, if you have been dreaming of something, wondering if a vocation or life path you fantasize about could translate into a real vocation, this Oracle brings you confirmation that you will be given the opportunities to do so, emowered to manifest your passionate purpose according to the loving plan of divine. If you have been wondering if a situation at hand, which is challenging you is something you really can't handle, then this Oracle comes as confirmation all will be well. You will be empowered to obtain what you seek.

Blessings and Love,

Superhero of the Head and Heart

Who is your favourite superhero? Batman? Superman? Spiderman? Or maybe Wonder Woman?

Mine was Batman. I mean Adam West, the original caped crusader from the 1960s. What had captivated me? Was it the Batmobile or the Batcave? Or his utility belt, supplying an endless number of gadgets to save any day? I’m not really sure what it was, but I just couldn’t wait until 5.30 p.m. every day after school for another opportunity to hear, “Quick Robin, to the bat poles!”

What exactly charms us about superheroes? Is it their super powers? Their super outfits? Their super romances? While all these play their part, bhakti wisdom drills deep and suggests that although we struggle and strain as we’re supposed to at school, at our jobs, and in our relationships, society today is unable to meet our core needs for higher awareness, values, and action. These needs underlie our fascination with hero figures. And Hollywood cashes in to fill the gap.

Holy human crisis Batman!

If there was ever a time that real superheroes were needed, it’s now. With mental depression predicted to soon become the number one disease in the First World, monsoon clouds shadowing the economic horizon, and ecologically conscious minds asking “How much of the truth do we tell?” it’s clear a supernatural trump card is well overdue. But looking to yoga knowledge, we find that its wisdom culture promoted and produced the real thing – the genuine hero. In fact, in bygone ages, that was society’s goal. Not to simply create mythological crime fighters who give fleeting inspiration, but rather, to craft a superhero out of every citizen.

Awake in higher consciousness, these heroes see the real injustice beneath the smug face of human progress. They see how a materialistic culture and self-concept, aggravated by advertising, social media, and tech gadgets, robs billions of innocent human beings of their highest potential: the opportunity for freedom from all suffering and the experience of real pleasure.

You see, according to yoga wisdom, we, the nonmaterial self, the actual person within the cosmetic coverings of body and mind, travel through countless species in a cycle of repeated birth and death. During this epic sojourn, we hit three major road blocks to our natural state of uninterrupted enjoyment: distresses arising from our own body and mind, those from other beings, and more from our environment such as natural disasters, or even just too much heat or cold. Constantly pestered by this trio of troubles, substantial peace and happiness are nothing more than a mirage in the desert.

Not until we evolve to the human form, after millions of births and deaths and their complementary anxieties, do we get the opportunity to escape this cycle, through the gift of advanced intelligence. The human body, therefore, along with its exclusive potential for enlightenment, is the greatest asset. Only when society actively encourages and supports the human being’s journey to self-realisation is it doing its job, according to yoga wisdom.

Back to the Batcave

With this clear vision of the extent of human injustice, naturally any soft hearted person want’s to help. But how do we become qualified to be a part of the solution? How do we get ourselves in shape for some crime fighting, bhakti-yoga style? Let’s rip down to the bhakti gym and get ready for action. Historically, the “bhakti gym” is a deserted area of around fifty square miles in North India, called Kurukshetra. Here five thousand years ago, Krishna enlightened his student, Arjuna, with the science of bhakti-yoga, the yoga of pure love.

Following in Arjuna’s footsteps, we pump iron as he did on the battlefield, by hearing from Krishna, the Supreme Source of all energies. Why hear from Krishna? If we hear from the source of all energies, it logically follows that we will then know how to use those energies in a way that best serves all beings. How do we know that Krishna is the Supreme Source? Just follow Krishna’s process of verification, as Arjuna did.

So, did Arjuna get a good workout? Oh yeah. As a military general, obliged to protect his citizens from crime and exploitation, he was faced with the agonising task of fighting with his cherished yet ill-motivated family members as his civic duty. Could there be a greater challenge for the head and heart? But hearing from Krishna strengthened Arjuna’s intellect and purified his motivations, and by the end of his workout he confirmed that he was ready for action:

“My dear Kṛiṣhṇa, O infallible one, my illusion is now gone. I have regained my memory by your mercy. I am now ﬁrm and free from doubt and am prepared to act according to your instructions.”

Tune in tomorrow - same bat time, same bat channel?

I jumped for joy when Mum bought me a Batman outfit for my seventh birthday. But as I tore off the packaging and donned the silky suit, her voice rang loud and clear, “Now don’t run off the roof trying to fly, thinking you’re Batman.” I would never have done that, of course. If Mum had been watching, she would have known that Batman couldn’t fly. In fact, he didn’t have any superpowers to speak of. His unique combination of credits was a feeling for the downtrodden and smarts that could top any villain.

Similarly, Bhagavad Gita explains that bhakti-yogis, based on their experience of the root causes of distress and true happiness, perfectly combine both the head and heart for the highest purpose— freeing themselves and others from samsara, the cycle of repeated birth and death.

With Batman as the only exception, I could never watch reruns. And if you’ve read this far, maybe you sense there is more to life than modern societies’ repeat episode of work-buy-consume-die. For you and me, Krishna spoke the science of bhakti-yoga in Bhagavad Gita to ignite our maximum human potential. And just as fire burns, Bhagavad Gita reveals that real spiritual life is active. This is why Krishna chose to speak Bhagavad Gita on a battlefield in between two of the largest armies ever assembled. Could we imagine a more action-packed situation?

Action, rooted in the deepest compassion and wisdom, is exactly what Krishna asks from Arjuna, and from us. Such bhakti activism can bring a genuine smile to the face of humanity.

Ready to lose more brain cells, biatches?

People with autism are oblivious when you enter their personal bubble #CMAT344

People with autism are so pure and misunderstood. Having a brother with autism opened my eyes to a lot. I love him so much

i hate how people are so mean to autistic children and people. people with autism are the most kind and loving people you will ever meet. theyre so pure and will love you no matter what. theyre the golden people on this earth.

my heart, people with autism are honestly so pure

People with autism are so pure and misunderstood. Having a brother with autism opened my eyes to a lot.

Autism is not a disease. People with Austim are highly in tune into the spiritual world. They travel the cosmos.

That article also disparages GLBT people. Utter lie, people with autism and low IQ are likely too be spiritual warriors not demons.

I'm sorry but I cannot be friends with people who make fun of kids with down syndrome, autism, etc. There is no need to make fun of people who are pure and so kind hearted towards others. They're human too.

Children and adults with autism are some of the most pure and kind people out there. The stigma around autism has to stop and we here at S.E.E.K. hope to help start that movement. #SentamentalSundays

All of this bugs me, BUT what bugs me most is “vaccines cause autism”. What a hateful disgusting thing. As if to say people who have autism are undesirable. Autism may be a disability but individuals with autism are some of the kindest souls. Too pure for this hate and ignorance

100% YES! If you know a kid with Autism, feel lucky because they are nothing but pure LOVE!! I worry about my sweet Braiden because of the cruel people in this world..

People with autism are our teachers of freedom, of pure love. #supersouls #autism

We have a lot of friends with #Autism. They are wonderful people with pure loving hearts! True angels.. <3

To me people with autism are true angels on this earth they are just pure and true

People with autism are nothing short of angels and more people desperately need to see that. If you know someone who uses ‘autistic’ as an insult, go set tht crusty mother fucker straight

bro i’m fucking crying. what the hell is wrong with people. these kids are angels ugh i’m so sad. i have an angel with autism in my life and he couldn’t be more perfect. i’m so mad right now

there’s a special place in hell for this officer. people with autism are literal angels that don’t deserve any pain or harm. ever. this is unacceptable and i’m so fucking mad right now. I’m convinced that people born with an autism spectrum disorder are really just angels sent to teach us the beauty and simplicity of the gift of life.

I work with people with autism this is great. Treat them properly and they sure are angels.

people are so sick these days... DO NOT mess with a human that has autism! they are gods angels. that is so sick.

I think people with down syndrome autism and special needs are like angels they see the best in people and are the kindest people I've met.

I’ve always believed, those born with a disability like autism, schizophrenia the like, are spirits of a higher realm and to experience an earthly experience, they choose the most challenging lives to live. These people are of a higher intelligence and with that, big challenges.

Kids with autism are the purest form of innocence, they are a true blessing to any household

#JosephOfCupertino, d Patron Saint of those with autism, is 1 of my favorite saints; not Bcause 1 ofmyGrandsons has #Autism but Bcause of his childlike innocence & humility (traits of autism) I love this old movie https://goo.gl/U8i2NP humorously-insightful, suited 4 all ages

@Atypical one of my new favorite shows! The amount of love and innocence and beauty within the relationships in the show depicts really well what life is actually like when you know someone with autism. And damn is it beautiful.

(about a video of someone with down syndrome)

The innocence of people with autism is beautiful

I work with autistic kids and people need to realise that people with autism are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet with a unique sort of innocence.

I find people with Autism to be the cutest things on God’s earth and idk why . The innocence they have about them

Just watched #ForrestGump for the first time in ages, it’s such a #beautiful #film, funny, full of history, fantastic soundtrack and heartbreaking. @tomhanks you are incredible, you seem to capture the beauty and innocence in #autism perfectly (pretty sure there’s nothing that states that Forrest Gump is autistic, though)

Its really sad how people treat people with Autism like they are Less...... they define love.. they have the most beautiful hearts and their innocence is just something wonderful..

We learn so many good things, values from those w/ disABILITY. They're GORGEOUS and BEAUTIFUL on the inside - they have a big HEART, humble, always have that childlike innocence. My grandson w/autism refused to kick in his self-defense class which was paid in full & dropped out.

Oh them eyes xxxx love autism for its innocence darling x

Autism - the keepers of innocence?

Some of the most pure-hearted, loving, intelligent individuals I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, have autism. There is such an innocence exuded that makes me smile inside and outside. They have such gentle, honest hearts, and bring so much joy to everyone around them.

autisum is how everybody should see the world sometimes through innocence and sometimes through truth xxx

Although people with Autism are VERY intelligent, sometimes when people flirt with them, they don’t know what’s happening, which shows their VERY Beautiful innocence at the same time. Just like Shaun was unaware that he was being flirted with. #TheGoodDoctor

Bless him, I love the innocence of autism, Could totally relate to the story as I’m sure you can too.. the world has a lot of hurtful and ignorant people it, nothing more hurtful than seeing your child being left out even if he/she can’t see it themselves

IMO A person should NOT ask a person with Autism to lie. It kills or can kill that Beautiful innocence that's within them. #TheGoodDoctor

We can all learn from the beauty &innocence disseminated from children with Autism. We learn more about life&others through active listening

Hey, you know what’s one word I haven’t looked up in terms of us autistics/disabled people? Trusting.

Special needs people are so trusting, it's scary. Like someone living with Autism will just come and give you a hug.. Just because. So sweet.

People living with autism are always babies at heart and very trusting. So when you abuse any of them, God will punish you. (What the fuck?)

i’m just upset that so many people think autism is the absolute worst thing that can happen to a child. children with autism are amazing and loving and sweet and should be treated like princes and princesses thx

I love people with autism they're so cute and friendly

music is being used to treat autismClinicians in Detroit have seen that for people with autism, music speaks louder than words – and improvised music can help them express emotion effectively, having a nonverbal discussion through music, these are musically naive children.

literally just called me autistic? People with autism are the happiest, most loving and innocent people. You need to stop using people’s disorders as “negative mean name calling”. Lastly go fuck yourself.

These stories are always so heartwarming! Arkansas cops, firefighters surprise teen with #autism at birthday party after only 3 people attend.

Love these heartwarming stories displaying the struggle people with Autism face every day until communities are willing to step in and help support people with Autism! Thank you @DavidMuir for bringing this to your news!

people with autism are really heartwarming people :)

People with autism are so blessed

I wanna give bless to the people and children with autism that are trying to get cure from eating gluten free foods and taking probiotic pills everyday and I will try my best to do everything that I can workout for my family and friends. #AutismAwarenessDay #LightItUpBlue #Autism – at Walt Disney World Resort

As a Mom of a Son with Autism, this warms my heart so very much that POTUS is shining a light on people on the Spectrum. Bless him! People with Autism do not have a disability they have a DIFFEREABILITY, they are simply a little different to others in a good way

(is this a try-not-to-cringe challenge? I think I lost.)

Autism is not a disability, it’s a different ability , amazing kid

Many of you are referring to children in the spectrum as light workers. What light has a child with #autism brought into your life?

I don't believe autism is a 'disorder', I believe these people are Light Workers here to awaken us to More beyond.

They say those with autism have a unique way of communicating that average humans do not understand but beings on a higher level will

people with autism are like higher beings. Theyre bodies are here but their consciousness is on another plain

People with Autism Can Engage in Physical Exercises Too Although people with autism are fragile, they can still engage in physical activities.

People with #autism are fragile.

They are the lonely angels. They embrace a colorful world. An art exhibition in Beijing explores the hidden world of autistic people. There are over 12 million people living with autism in China. Know them and care for them.

Ellen, you are an AMAZING ADVOCATE of people in need, children in the autism spectrum are bullied and schools, families need to be reeducate with corrective steps to STOP this, we need mentors that can ASSIST to a better LIFE for this ANGELS. Awareness is not enough!

''People with Autism are angels who lost there way to Heaven and fell down to Earth.'' #autism #aspergers #ASD #autismawareness #autism

I love all of the angels that are among us...especially people with Asperger's, Autism, & Down's Syndrome. Sending love!

People with Autism are Angels in disguise on Earth. #WorldAutismAwarenessDay

We have a lot of friends with #Autism. They are wonderful people with pure loving hearts! True angels.. <3

Do you know what Autism is? — I do! People with Autism are special angels! Its not a down to life, just a reason…

I think people with down syndrome autism and special needs are like angels they see the best in people and are the kindest people I've met.

Kids with Autism are magic! They change lives, bring people together. Show us how special life is. Help us to accept. Angels .

Aw, people with autism are little angels

@Marlyy33 People with autism are the key to unconditional love! Congrats on being the mom of an angel! :)

RESPECT people who are different from you! This includes people with special needs (like autism). Special needs people are God's angels!

happy autism awareness acceptance month! ppl with autism are the most precious people ever and we don't deserve them

Advantage of People with Disabilities: Innocence

people with disabilities doesn't define who they are only shows the innocence and true nature of happiness. RT if you agree

Watching this documentary about people with autism and wow, these people are truly inspirational, really makes you think

My Career within the System of Life

I have been contemplating on my relationship with life, from the career perspective. I am feeling intuitively that my spiritual fascia needs to be connected again with all that is. I feel the need to strech a lot. I have been separating myself from the world since almost 4 years, slowly slowly based on my opinions and judgement, I cut almost everyone from my life.

I did not know how to live a balanced life, alone and also in community. I have been an extremist. And these past years I have been bitter in my aloneness. Here and there sometimes making space for others, but not to close, so I don’t get hurt again.

Truth is that I also needed this pause of aloneness to learn about some things about myself and the humankind. Like who I am and why am I here, by the Way of Self- Awareness.

I gave myself time to begin to understand and accept the intelligence of my physical body. Make it my best friend before entering the world of community again. Because the body is the first one communicating me essential information about leading a balanced life.

I used to express my genius unconsciously. My Vitality was like a magnet for people to join me in group sessions that I would guide happily to communicate a deep message through a very simple method - tasting different origins of specialty coffee -

The message was very simple and intuitively and I was believing in it with every cell of my being.

Back then I was not realising that I was actually living my purpose and my life’s work, according to the Gene Keys. And that is why I felt so happy and in my place in the whole system of life. I was doing my thing.

Later I discovered the pleasures of teas, herbs and cacao as means of living a slowful, healthy and balance life.

But the community is not showing up yet, as I have some more mental and emotional digestions that I need to take care.

The community is not showing up because I am still under the illusion that I am separate from it, just because it is not present in physical in my reality. The community is also the whole wide world. The community is also The Life. And the truth is that I am connected with all that is. Just my illusion is keeping me in a fake separation.

I am digesting consciously since 2 years now, wondering around the world to find out what is inside of me that is so dissatistisfied with life. The journey from unconscious to conscious.

Physical, mental& emotional digestion is happening in its organic pace for each individual. I finally realised that such a delicate art cannot and should not be forced.

Life is slowly and softly embraces me once again in Her Warming and Joyous Connectedness.

I became aware of so many patterns that are self- saboutaging; that over time have strenghten, thus taking me away from my life of community to deal with myself. I was feeling full and dull. I could not go on. Collapsing was over the corner and all I wanted is to leave everything, go home and die in my pijamas. Which I did somehow, in between my exhaustion to get back on the saddle of career. The more I struggled, the more I would strangle myself with the invisible rope of judgement and stress.

I was living in the deep suffering of the shadow frequency. Not being aware of its potentiality and hidden Light.

But the Ring was Seeking was so powerful in me, that eventually I discovered a teaching that would match my soul resonance and so begin to unlock my genius into the stream of higher consciousness that is aware of itself.

This teaching is called the Gene Keys, by Richard Rudd, a mystic to whom I am grateful for eternity. My hologenetic profile, the contemplations on my specific gene keys guided by all the majestic materials that are provided to accompany one on his or her journey of self- light, has helped me to see my self with my heart and so much more that maybe one day I will get the chance to speak of or write of it.

I has given me the right words to understand and unravel. To integrate myself. And it has returned me to loving people more than words, more that coffee... as in each there is a different expression of Divinity.

For me is important to live a life of service, in the integrity of my own sensitive and sacred heart, channeling through voice and written communication the wisdom of a simple Life.

This truth that is within me is about living life. About seeing the each single coffee origin is different, unique and that we can choose the one that matches our current mood, just because we are aware of ourselves, our freedom and we accept the flavour that is visiting our now moment. About celebrating snd cherishing every single day for just pure beingness. Being humans in experience of our now Home, Gaia.

And imagine I was just talking intuitively about these things when I was guiding people to see the world of coffee from a different perspective.

I was not into reading spiritual books or teachers. I was into the presence of people and volatile aromatics and uncturous body layers.

As I was falling into sleep, the night before, I was feeling again to burn my notes, my journals and let go of the spirituality as a separate word that defines a certain kind of community. Absolutely everything is spirit- spiritual. Even working in a coffeeshop. Especially working in a coffeeshop.

I have made this ritual of burning in gratitude as a statement of detachment, freedom and openness to the new life always desirous to emerge through my being. Fresh and refresing Vitality.

Memories are anyway stored in a very special universal record. So inner spaciousness is a must for me to revel in a healthy stream of this effervescent Earth play.

I realised that by working with something that is coming from the Earth, like ingredients and something that is coming from the Heavens, like voice, I can be deeply spiritual and also a balanced human being among my people and my Home on Earth.

I am grateful for all the ones that have touched my path. There is so much uniqueness in this world that needs the eyes of the heart and the integrity of the present moment to experience the joy and slowness of Earth Life. Everything is so perfect actually. See?

I feel blessed because the universe has supported me to focus entirely on my return to my essence.

Anyway, I could not do anything else, because my chemistry had reached a point that would not support it and this I call Love from below and above.

Last year, a friend was trying to tell me something deep for himself, but could not quite find his words. I tuned into his beautiful aura and helped him to express his golden wisdom: I wish to enter in a relationship, after I have anchored myself into the new who I am.

This revelation was and still is valid also for me.

So much about reactualizing parts of ouselves and burning what is no longer of use to the whole. So much about happiness based on oneself, sourced within oneself, a must be for healthy, coherent intimate relationships.

I send him my gratitude and many blessings of deep soul fulfillment. Beloved Soul.

Am I still waiting for something to be the life signature that I am?

No.

I am savouring my cup.

Do you remember your personal experiences that connected you with your purpose and life’s work?

May this sharing serve you well with insights for your natural career path and just life itself!

With reverence,

Floriana

How To Use Your Dharma Practice

A dharma practice is here to help us to realise our true nature of mind, but the most important part of dharma practice is capture and cancel our ego clinging.

We also confuse Dharma the teaching and Dharma practice, without the teachings we wont be able to practice the dharma

The 37 Bodhisattvas practice explain us how we need to turn our mind to the teaching.

Namo Lokesvaraya

You who see that experience has no coming or going, Yet pour your energy solely into helping beings, My excellent teachers and Lord All Seeing, I humbly and constantly honor with my body, speech, and mind.

The fully awake, the buddhas, source of joy and well-being, All come from integrating the noble Way. Because integration depends on your knowing how to practice, I will explain the practice of all bodhisattvas.

1 Right now, you have a good boat, fully equipped and available — hard to find. To free others and you from the sea of samsara, Day and night, fully alert and present, Study, reflect, and meditate — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

2 Attraction to those close to you catches you in its currents; Aversion to those who oppose you burns inside; Indifference that ignores what needs to be done is a black hole. Leave your homeland — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

3 Don’t engage disturbances and reactive emotions gradually fade away; Don’t engage distractions and spiritual practice naturally grows; Keep awareness clear and vivid and confidence in the way arises. Rely on silence — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

4 You will separate from long-time friends and relatives; You will leave behind the wealth you worked to build up; The guest, your consciousness, will move from the inn, your body. Forget the conventional concerns — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

5 With some friends, the three poisons keep growing, Study, reflection, and meditation weaken, And loving kindness and compassion fall away. Give up bad friends — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

6 With some teachers, your shortcomings fade away and Abilities grow like the waxing moon. Hold such teachers dear to you, Dearer than your own body — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

7 Locked up in the prison of their own patterning Whom can ordinary gods protect? Who can you count on for refuge? Go for refuge in the Three Jewels — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

8 The suffering in the lower realms is really hard to endure. The Sage says it is the result of destructive actions. For that reason, even if your life is at risk, Don’t engage in destructive actions — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

9 The happiness of the three worlds disappears in a moment, Like a dewdrop on a blade of grass. The highest level of freedom is one that never changes. Aim for this — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

10 If all your mothers, who love you, Suffer for time without beginning, how can you be happy? To free limitless sentient beings, Give rise to awakening mind — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

11 All suffering comes from wanting your own happiness. Complete awakening arises from the intention to help others. So, exchange completely your happiness For the suffering of others — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

12 Even if someone, driven by desperate want, Steals, or makes someone else steal, everything you own, Dedicate to him your body, your wealth, and All the good you’ve ever done or will do — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

13 Even if you have done nothing wrong at all And someone still tries to take your head off, Spurred by compassion, Take all his or her evil into you — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

14 Even if someone broadcasts to the whole universe Slanderous and ugly rumors about you, In return, with an open and caring heart, Praise his or her abilities — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

15 Even if someone humiliates you and denounces you In front of a crowd of people, Think of this person as your teacher And humbly honor him — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

16 Even if a person you have cared for as your own child Treats you as his or her worst enemy, Lavish him or her with loving attention Like a mother caring for her ill child — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

17 Even if your peers or subordinates, Put you down to make themselves look better, Treat them respectfully as you would your teacher: Put them above you — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

18 When you are down and out, held in contempt, Desperately ill, and emotionally crazed, Don’t lose heart. Take into you The suffering and negativity of all beings — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

19 Even when you are famous, honored by all, And as rich as the god of wealth himself, Don’t be pompous. Know that the magnificence of existence Has no substance — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

20 If you don’t subdue the opponent inside, your own anger, Although you subdue opponents outside, they just keep coming. Muster the forces of loving kindness and compassion And subdue your own mind — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

21 Sensual pleasures are like salty water: The deeper you drink, the thirstier you become. Any object that you attach to, Right away, let it go — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

22 Whatever arises in experience is your own mind. Mind itself is free of any conceptual limitations. Know that and don’t generate Subject-object fixations — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

23 When you come across something you enjoy, Though beautiful to experience, like a summer rainbow, Don’t take it as real. Let go of attachment — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

24 All forms of suffering are like dreaming that your child has died. Taking confusion as real wears you out. When you run into misfortune, Look at it as confusion — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

25 If those who want to be awake have to give even their bodies, What need is there to talk about things that you simply own. Be generous, not looking For any return or result — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

26 If you can’t tend to your needs because you have no moral discipline, Then intending to take care of the needs of others is simply a joke. Observe ethical behavior without concern For conventional existence — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

27 For bodhisattvas who want to be rich in virtue A person who hurts you is a precious treasure. Cultivate patience for everyone, Completely free of irritation or resentment — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

28 Listeners and solitary buddhas, working only for their own welfare, Are seen to practice as if their heads were on fire. To help all beings, pour your energy into practice: It’s the source of all abilities — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

29 Understanding that emotional reactions are dismantled By insight supported by stillness, Cultivate meditative stability that passes right by The four formless states — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

30 Without wisdom, the five perfections Are not enough to attain full awakening. Cultivate wisdom, endowed with skill And free from the three domains — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

31 If you don’t go into your own confusion, You may just be a materialist in practitioner’s clothing. Constantly go into your own confusion And put an end to it — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

32 You undermine yourself when you react emotionally and Grumble about the imperfections of other bodhisattvas. Of the imperfections of those who have entered the Great Way, Don’t say anything — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

33 When you squabble with others about status and rewards, You undermine learning, reflection, and meditation. Let go of any investment in your family circle Or the circle of those who support you — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

34 Abusive language upsets others And undermines the ethics of a bodhisattva. So, don’t upset people or Speak abusively — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

35 When reactive emotions acquire momentum, it’s hard to make remedies work. A person in attention wields remedies like weapons, Crushing reactive emotions such as craving As soon as they arise — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

36 In short, in everything you do, Know what is happening in your mind. By being constantly present and aware You bring about what helps others — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

37 To dispel the suffering of beings without limit, With wisdom freed from the three spheres Direct all the goodness generated by these efforts To awakening — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

Following the teachings of the holy ones On what is written in the sutras, tantras, and commentaries, I set out these thirty-seven practices of a bodhisattva For those who intend to train in this path.

Because I have limited intelligence and little education, These verses are not the kind of poetry that delights the learned. But because I relied on the teachings of the sutras and the revered I am confident that The Practices of a Bodhisattva is sound.

However, because it’s hard for a person with limited intelligence like me To fathom the depths of the great waves of the activity of bodhisattvas, I ask the revered to tolerate Any mistakes — contradictions, non sequiturs, and such.

From the goodness of this work, may all beings, Through the supreme mind that is awake to what is ultimately and apparently true, Not rest in any limiting position — existence or peace: May they be like Lord All Seeing.

Tokmé, the monk, a teacher of scripture and logic, composed this text in a cave near the town of Ngülchu Rinchen for his own and others’ benefit

This the first step just before practice turning our mind away of samsara.

Second part we must develop three steps very important.

Renounciation: to be able to practice the right way , we need renounce to samsara

Bodhichitta: mind of unconditional love and compassion

The right view : aiming to liberate all being losing self grasping

Mahayana practice are able to become Vajrayana too it depends on our views and bodhicitta.

Vajrayana practices are radically different some got inside practices of the practice and more.

Lets say that years we been practicing Chenrezig and we still not having compassion and our tendency still the same well its time to change.

What do we mean by discovering or rediscovering our true nature means, get rib of all egotistical constructions, become more selfless.
