Earth’s gain is heaven’s loss.

Monday, January 8, 2024

The cusp of heaven is a narrow opening through which few allow themselves to fall. Heaven is often thought of as being “up” in the high vaults of paradise. But that’s a reaching sensation caused by the frenzied mind “pulling” you up there. Heaven is a healing depth of enrapturing unity, grounded by the focus of the eternal now. It’s a loss of time and space. It’s a loss of self, which helps you get out of the way of creative flow.

The loss of self is the height of earthly accomplishment; but the opening to that kind of “height” lies low in truth. Heaven’s walls seem high, but that’s mental trickery. Heaven is a backwards free fall. You’ll never have to reach for it, but to merely dissolve into it.

When you lose yourself in the moment, deeply concerted in creative expression, you’ll gain all that you ever wanted and more – the loss of the ego. When doing, being, and expressiveness unify in the dimension of focus, you are never more truly yourself. The only way to unlock the gates of heaven is to plunge to the depths of your soul, not to climb the walls of the world. Everyone else is climbing the walls, bringing themselves to the brink of insanity. You are on the cusp of heaven!

Heaven opens when you unclasp your hands and mind, surrender your heart, and fall backwards into the immersive embrace of the eternal now. Allow your words, your actions, and your demeanor to come from that lowly place. Slow down. Anchor yourself. Don’t try to scale the walls that “build up” in your head. Heaven is high, but can only be accessed through a small, interior opening of focus and relaxation. Don’t stand on the cusp and tremble. Lie down, let go, and fall in. It’s paradise.
