Writings from Friends > "FACE it, EMBRACE it, ERASE it!" by Trudy


28 Jan 2009

Whatever "it" is... 

Whatever "appears"...

In thought, feeling or form...



FACE it...

It claims power, it claims self-hood.

It claims action, it claims value.

SEE it -- it has NONE of these!

It pretends to have these.

LOOK at it directly.

Do not avoid it.

Directly admit it to awareness in this moment.



EMBRACE it...

Allow it to look like it "has" power, self-hood, action, value.

Admit it to your warmth, your welcome, your CLARITY.

Do not expect any outlined change.

Let the appearance be there.



ERASE it...

TURN to WHAT TRULY IS.

Recognize the ONE POWER, the ONE SELF, the ONLY ACTION!

Include ALL in the ONLY BEING.

Acknowledge ONE ALONE POWER.

Find ONLY SINGLE COMPLETENESS,

RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW.

Find NO OTHER despite what may appear, arguing for other.



The FACING (non-avoiding) --

the EMBRACING (non-resistance) --

the ERASING (discovering no existence of any besides ME!) --

ALREADY IS.



The shadow/reflection is stripped of its claims.



Signs may follow, but remain powerless to claim anything.



The ERASURE is done in the NOW.



NOW ETERNALLY IS.
