Resting Place

Barbara Rose • Mar 17, 2023

Imagine, for a moment... a place that is so safe, so secure, and so profound  you can rest in eternal peace even as you watch all that you treasure most in the world  crumble into nothing at your feet...

"How does it feel to know... really know... 

all that unfolds before your eyes is in perfect accord  with the natural rhythm and pulse of some great cosmic orchestra?

 
How does it feel to be so in tune with this rhythm  you become it?  You know... really know... you are a perfect note within this magical song of existence... 


And how does it feel to know... really know... 

you are also the orchestrator of that song?"

Walk the Rainbow. p304

Guidance

A shaman is said to journey between three worlds - upper, middle and lower; the upper being the realm of spirit guides, the lower - power animals, and the middle, where we live, draws upon the infinite wisdom of both the kingdom of the soul and the subtle forms intrinsic to the kingdom of nature - nature spirits, elementals etc. Knowledge, healing and guidance may be retrieved from any one of these worlds to enhance daily life, whether it be for oneself or another, on personal or collective levels.


Now look at the image above. Consciousness, symbolised by the torus geometry, rests at the centre, yet opportunity to explore two other worlds is also intimated; one above and the other below. These worlds may be likened to the three shamanic realms. However, Resting Place is also a container for their expression; it is both preserver and the sacred space wherein great cosmic forces flow unimpeded throughout all realities. It is thus, container and the contained; the real and the unreal; the singer and the song. It is a magical, experiential doorway, wherein consciousness may explore within itself, where it may face itself, where it may recognise its true nature and realise all is not as it appears.


This vision, therefore, brings unique gifts. It is an invitation to rest in the cosmic womb of creation, to experience the wondrous space that holds all events separate and to know, 'really know', man and universe, singer and song, are one and the same; one glorious note echoing throughout all time, all existence. Stepping into Resting Place presents an opportunity to fulfil the purpose to which you and all mankind were born. To be an aware, conscious, intermediary between Spirit and matter, and to know yourself as consciousness as it expresses through you. Remember, wherever consciousness abides, its true expression is limitless Presence. It is time to experience this directly as one who knows.

So, would you be a magical, experiential doorway where time and space, all that is lost and incomplete,
is found? Would you enter a way of being where consciousness may explore itself... where it may recognise itself in the mirror of itself... and finally see... with crystalline clarity... it is far more than that which is revealed. Would you?


Lastly, there are many facets to a diamond and this musing is no different; two more are exposed through the artist's personal journey. Creation of the artwork, its place in the grand scheme of things, and assemblage of the jigsaw combine to reveal perspectives on reality that might otherwise be lost to the annals of time. They create a space wherein paradox is unveiled and where every facet of the diamond is seen to be whole. Follow the links below to find out how.
