Inside not outside

Posted on by philipdodson

If we seek our fulfilment in the world of form we will always be disappointed.

All things are temporary in this realm.

The only real and permanent thing is this present moment.

Now is the eternal moment that all things unfold in.

However, all thoughts, lives, and material things are created and then disappear and die.

Yet we believe in our unconsciousness that they are permanent. When they fade away then we are disappointed.

If we seek our fulfilment within ourselves, then it is rooted in consciousness and is connected to the unmanifested and not the temporary world of form.

Our fulfilment is inside not outside.

What we play is life

In the words of legendary jazz musician and singer Louis Armstrong, ‘What we play is life,’ meaning that life is a game, playtime, fun, and a time to create, experiment, and create experiences. Let this moment be as it is intended to be and allow ourselves to immerse totally in it.

Life is a single constantly changing and unfolding now moment. It is the moment in which everything occurs, and the universe always gives us what we need. Everything is as it is meant to be.

We can then go with this and create our art, music, dance, laughter and whatever wants to flow from our soul…let it out to play.

It is important to go with this flow of electricity, energy, and creative juice and not to resist it.

Play, play and play some more. Dance, dance and dance some more. Laugh, laugh and laugh again. Be light, do not be serious and live this moment always. Do not dwell in the past or imagine the future, these are all states of our unconscious mind. Be conscious and create…keep playing the tunes that are the essence of our soul and what makes life a magical experience.

What we play is life.
