Sometimes,it takes awhile

I once was wild about working with gourds. I built or created a bird house with one. It hung from a tree in the back garden. with time and weather it fell and the neck broke off. For some reason I was loath to just throw it away. The main body was rehung, but I kept the neck saving it till I could get back to it. I know that each and every other artist out there has done this in some way, the part of a song that you just can’t finish or get that special riff for. I moved this broken piece of gourd from one place in my work space to another.
Finally this past spring, it was just what I needed to try a new product with.
Once I had made up my mind, things just began to happen.
I can turn it in different directions, and each side gives me a different “story” “view”.. I had no idea what it was, or what to do with it. but.. the finished product made me smile and made me happy. It was a visual tactile expression I needed to express at that time! No more no less.

There is a teaching in PL. Once you make up your mind, things will happen. Once you decide you are going to do something, your enthusiasm and focus (mindfulness) will bring forth results. God/Universe will give you aid when you need it most.

Living life as Art, means, go with the flow, create and express yourself, the challenges in life are there to allow us to grow and stretch our talents. God/TAO is everywhere, and in all things. Always. Strive to live in Perfect Liberty (PL)

God Resides in Your Prayerful MInd

PL teaching day 13 > God Resides in Your Prayerful Mind. In addition to making heartfelt and continuous effort, Let’s pray to God. He/She will surely respond to your Makoto (sincerity)

Mioyaookami -God> is not a person,male or female. God is the power,source and law of the universe. (In PL we call God, Mioyaookami.)

Just as we know that our bodies must be fed, and renewed by having a good night’s sleep on a regular basis, so must we connect with the “Divine/Universe” in a constant orderly “way”
PL faith grows not only through intellectual understanding but through heartfelt prayer on a daily basis.

” The ultimate Tao is called absolute. We cannot know it directly because it has no definitions, references or names. Our normal minds are incapable of perceiving where there is no contrast. Yet is it precisely this colorless infinity that is the underlying reality to this life.“ Deng Ming-Dao

Listen With Your Heart and Your Mind

PL teaching day 30 > Listen With Your Heart and Your Mind. >When we are listening to someone, give them your fullest attention. Turning your body towards them, listen for the feeling behind their words so that you can truly understand what they are trying to tell you. >Listen With Your Heart and Your Mind.

It starts out innocent enough, our partner/boss or friend says something to us while we are busy working on a project or intent on something else. We heard part of what was said, think we understand, grunt, or reply in agreement and continue with what we are doing. We don’t stop what we are doing, and turn to listen to exactly what is being said, or why.( Remember that expression, listening with half a mind). At that moment, we really have no idea what we agreed to, or didn’t agree to. So later when something is expected of us, or we say something that provokes a very negative response in our partner,boss or friend, we are taken aback. We really haven’t a clue. AND depending on what the situation is/was, it can cause hard feelings, missed appointments, disappointment. When all it would have taken, was a few moments of consideration on our part, when addressed, to stop and listen with full attention, or to excuse one’s self and ask that the party wait a few moments, while you freed yourself from your current task. Remember – listen with an open heart and mind.

PL teaching for day 30 – Listen with Your Heart and Your Mind

Just be Yourself

PL teaching for day 29 > Just be Yourself. Relax and express yourself freely without hesitation. This will allow you to live your life to the fullest. Just be Yourself.

I have been trying for days now (weeks) to share with you a song that really resonates with me. I hum it, sing it to the best I can since the Portuguese words are not familiar to me, I love it. Fingers crossed I think I have finally found a way to share it with you.

Act With Enthusiasm

PL teaching day 28 > If you put your whole heart into whatever you do, you will be able to appreciate any task at hand. Take initiative in tackling your work or tasks. Act with Enthusiasm.

Vitality in nature – All nature is a song – have you ever spent time in a garden? Everywhere you look, there is some dynamic event in progress. In our garden it is an ever changing vista. Birds fly in and out, they bathe at the water feature, they search for tidbits of treats left behind by the squirrels that travel the highways (hydro and phone lines) that criss-cross between the properties. Insects scurry back and forth along their well worn paths under the vegetation. Gardens are a hive of activity. One day the flower buds are lifting their little faces to the sun, and it seems like the next day, the branches are heavy with tantalizing fruit. The smells of moist earth is strangely stirring, and the fact that no matter how well tended the garden is, there is constant entropy and disorder.

Yet…. all is as it should be, each and every part of the garden is living as it should. There is a natural rhythm in nature, we let it happen, Variety IS vitality. Each and everyone of us, has our own rhythm/song. It is up to each of us to sing as we feel moved by the over-all song of life. Harmonize with it …sing in counterpoint….descend into strange modes, chant, “go with the flow”

PL teaches us to pray in order to have good self expression. We need to strive to express ourselves joyfully, cheerfully and beautifully.

Look for Ways to Make Others as Well as Yourself Happy

PL teaching day 24 > Look for Ways to make Others as Well as Yourself Happy > It isn’t enough to do things just to make yourself happy. Let’s always think of outcomes that make not only you, but others around you happy as well. <> Look for Ways to Make Others as Well as Yourself Happy.

Personally I have found that when I am happy, truly happy, I find the world and all around me to be very balanced and my encounters with others amicable. I have learned over the years that the only changes I can make, are to myself and my own actions. When I am at peace, my energy cultivates a more serene environment.

Perfect Liberty teaches that we are all born with our one of a kind personality and Makoto (individuality and a unique character) When you are able to express yourself to the fullest from moment to moment, believing in God, without losing sight of your God given individuality (Makoto) you will be able to experience the true joy of living. When we can express ourselves fully, we are happy.

It is our mission to attain “Great World Peace”, to build a world of love and respect for all. Oneness.

Let Go, Let God

My morning mantra. Since yesterday, I have heard myself whisper, Let Go, Let God.

Skies are a bright blue, the sun is streaming down through the trees throwing a lovely dappled pattern of shade on the patio. May today be a day filled with richness and blessings to you all. Smile and the world smiles with you! Blessings
