La Palma Retreat - and Paradise Found!
Comment
Hi friends - I've had just the most incredible day I wanted to share with you all. I'm on retreat at the moment on the magical island of La Palma - testing its viability as a long term Openhand base. It's known by the locals as "Isla Bonita" - beautiful island. Everywhere I looked there was great beauty - the palm trees, cacti, the magnificent birds and the sun shining across the indigo blue ocean.
It is paradise on earth. So exquisite was it, that at one point, I noticed an aspect of mind was wanting to 'bottle it up' , and own it a degree - there was a subtle sense of lack, needing something from it - to own it and hold onto it. But then practically immediately my soul burst through, reminding me - it's all a reflection of what you already contain within. At which point, the dam broke, and a river of love coursed through me the whole day.
From that moment, I was seeing and feeling reflections of great beauty all around, but feeling it within, filling me up. So I felt to remind everyone: look upon the great beauty of this world, in the landscape, in people, in creatures, but always remember to feel the source of it inside of you. Then you will never go wanting. Deep love to you all.
On the way back to my cabin, I was guided to flick through the Spanish radio channels, somehow something always spoke. But this one rocked me to my core - the sense of a heavenly - Twin Flame - angel singing through the ether...
"love me like you do" - where's yours?...
