Influences

Influences

influences? coincidences?
how to define?
what is our guidance?
how do we align?

what is an influence?
an inflow sense?
and how one receives?
and how one perceives?

as we observe
in our willingness to serve
are we attaching an opinion
a judgement or dominion?

are we comparing
to past experience or feeling?
is an incident used to validate
or to disqualify from dealing?

and if we are influenced
by what we observe
is that a good thing
or is it throwing a curve?

from stillness, a heart space
can we simply see
allowing what we witness
to flow thru and just be?

and besides being influenced
is it a coincidence
that what we get to witness
challenges our neutralness?

what opportunities we’re given
to understand how we’re living
to witness and feel awe
from something we just saw

and yes, we may influence others
all our sisters and brothers
who are part of the brew
so let them be not be you

uniqueness is the clue
to a richness and a blending
into a oneness that is sending
an imprint of the new
expanding All That Is

Free Flow and a Porthole

Free Flow and a Porthole

a place to see thru
to expand on our view
thru this veil
this thin barrier
oh to be the carrier
of that which can be seen
a dimension of being
where all is proceeding
becoming so freely
a glorious morn
the new being born
oh to see thru a porthole
an opening for the soul
to discover that the soul can go
and be part of the infancy
a portal to the infinitcy
communicating, orchestrating
affecting all on this side too
with a free flow of creation’s new
new ways on how to do
information, loving ways
new insight thru the clearing haze
the soul conductor
the body empowered
free flowing love
from budding to flowered
a new beginning, an inside out
a free flow, a way to know
and to become

Percival

Percival

Percival represents the search
a passion? an illusion?
an endless channelled going to?
a compassionate want for fusion?

From Wikipedia:
In 1940 (Joseph) Campbell attended a lecture by Professor Heinrich Zimmer at Columbia University; the two men became friends, and Campbell looked upon Zimmer as a mentor. Zimmer taught Campbell that myth (rather than a guru or spiritual guide) could serve in the role of a personal mentor, in that its stories provide a psychological road map for the finding of oneself in the labyrinth of the complex modern world. Zimmer relied more on the meanings of mythological tales (their symbols, metaphors, imagery, etc.) as a source for psychological realization than upon psychoanalysis itself. Campbell later borrowed from Jung’s interpretative techniques and then reshaped them in a fashion that followed Zimmer’s beliefs— interpreting directly from world mythology. This is an important distinction, because it serves to explain why Campbell did not directly follow Jung’s footsteps in applied psychology.
