I sense something has changed in me
I am thankful, light and free
I see the whole world in a stone
Awakening
Hide
Now I want to hide
To find refuge within
Away from words and ideas
Away from creed and certainty
I am even tired of myself
Too much out there
Not enough in here
Help me, because I have sinned
I chose image over truth
Now having seen my image,
I find I am done
I am coming home
Into myself, a place,
not crowded by words and deeds
Yet, a wide, deep, open space of You
Let me hide here, until,
You, are all there is

On The Mountain / På fjellet
On the Mountain
Once,
you called me and set me
on the top of the mountain
There I saw
the Indescribable Light
In this Light my soul would linger
But it was not the time
-Now, dear child, you must learn to walk
Step down from the mountain you must
Soon you will neither feel or see
There will be darkness
On the road to the Secret Place
På fjellet
En gang,
du kalte meg opp
på den høyeste tinde
Der fikk jeg se det
Ubeskrivelige lys
I det Lyset ville min sjel forbli
Men det var ikke dens tid
-Nå, kjære barn, må du lære å gå
Stige ned fra fjellet du må
Intet vil du snart føle eller se
Det vil bli mørkt
På veien til det Hemmelige sted

Where is Your Center
Summer 2015 was special for me. I had some kind of awakening. I had been reading The Untethered Soul by Michael S. Singer, probably for the second time. Slowly, yet also suddenly, I was overcome by a deep sense of joy. The joy was so real and rare, that I almost thought I had the Awakening.
What was it that created this deep and special joy, from within? It was the realization that I was not my thoughts. I had thoughts, but the thoughts were not me in themselves. To really see this with my inner eye was very liberating. They joy sprang forth from the heart of a free man. And the joy was profound and real.
After a long summer holiday which I remember very fondly, I went back to my work at the school. I remember not being able to hold it to myself, I had to share. This was almost too good to be true, and at least too good not to be spoken of and possibly spread to others. So I shared the testimony with those willing to lend an ear to my speech.
Looking back at it now, after all these years, nine years to be specific, I remember this joy, because it was truly life changing for me. It was a paradigm shift for sure. I had learned to have my center more in my heart and intuition, and much less in my ever changing and often weary and troubling thoughts.
If this speaks to your longing, and to your heart, then I believe to experience this is also possible for you. If your thoughts are discouraging and not very uplifting, then you can find great help in a shift like I experienced. And this is no commercial, and I am sharing this information for free. So why not pick up this book, The Untethered Soul, by Michael S. Singer and check it out for yourself?
Remember, give it time, you may not experience very much the first time you read the book. But reading plants seeds in your heart. Read it again. And before you know it, your heart awakens to the experience of a new and profound joy!
Light and love to you 🌄

Thoughts and Life
When I saw it
Joy flood my life
Finally it was clear
I knew
Thought is thought
That is not
What I am
Then I drank
my cup
A Contemplative Life
