...sharing....


Can I just ask you to think about the ones who you love in your love...Try to remember what you have shared together... Also, what else you would like to share…? And tell me please, what you could share with a totally stranger? So, I am coming to the point; what do you think about sharing? What does it really mean for you to become a being of love and sharing?

Sharing means opening yourself to be in communication and accepting to be in relationship by having possessions in common. It implies the spirit of generous sharing or the act of giving as contrasted with selfish getting. Here, generosity is not an abstract ideal, but a demonstrable action resulting in a tangible and realistic expression of giving. Also, in most contexts, sharing not just material, but also emotional, mental and spiritual.
In classical Greek, koinonein means "to have a share in a thing," as when two or more people hold something, or even all things, in common. It can mean, "going shares" with others, thereby having "business dealings,” such as joint ownership of a ship. It can also imply "sharing an opinion" with someone, and therefore agreeing with him, or disagreeing in a congenial way. Only participation as a contributive member allows one to share in what others have. What is shared, received or given becomes the common ground through which Sharing becomes real.

Many people think a simple action of giving is enough, but this is not the case. To share is a mutual relationship and communication. Spiritually, it means we have given up something. This is how most mystics’ phrase, “Share until it hurts” ... It hurts because you encounter with your selfishness and Superego. Eventually, if you achieve to give and share the things, emotions and thoughts, you are on the way to vibrate with one of the great wisdom that involves generosity.

For me, Sharing involves Caring... It is such a deep care that we don’t feel we are owed anything in return. It is a great step for the unconditional love, wisdom and strength... They are very much connected with our ultimate aims of living that are happiness and maturity. In other words, to really share -symbolically like the Sun or Light,- it needs to be unconditional, without any agenda of our own. The intense desire to share is what really connects us to the Light.

So lets start with a simple step this week. Try sharing until it hurts.
This sharing could be in many levels: material, emotional, mental and energetic... Sharing is not an easy task; you need to face with your Ego… At least lets try and observe us objectively…I think that would be a great reflection in our Journey of Self-Discovery…

Good Luck =)
All the best,

Rhythm...?

How would you react if i would claim that rhythm is the main element for survival?
I am writing this words in a classical music concert.
I am impressed by the dynamism, unity and communication through music, rhythm, melody...
I just felt like to write, and by this time felt like to share.

The symphony consist of different unique rhythms, however they form one perfect melody. As in daily life, all of us have different thoughts, emotions and expressions. As human-beings, we make sense and we exist just with union of them. It is undeniable that with this combination we spread our rhythm, our energy to the world around us. Living in a society, in a family, in a friend group or in an intimate relationship is like playing in a symphony. You have to be in harmony with everything around you. By being aware of the fact that you are part of an cosmic unity, you can adjust your rhythm -character, traits and talents- accordingly. This conciousness of unity gives a motivation for great relationships... Great melodies and dances...

 In the concert,  we can see that although every unique person has his own special talents, different tones and rhythms, everyone adjusts and adapts himself with the rhythm of the others. This is something really impressive and perfect.Also, this is something you may observe and think about it...

All existence have a rhythm, all planets have their own rhythm. All countries, all community and of course all human being contain unique rhythm. By this combination we end up with the cosmic symphony.

I just realized that all kind of communication and relation depend on these rhythms. For me communication is possible if you could find a common rhythm. If you could hear your rhythm and act-dance with it you would be totally free and happy. For any relationship, you need to listen the person or people you want to communicate. And answer or react with the approprate tone. Yes, for me, this is "the secret" of  communication... Balance of your rhythm brings balance to the relationship. Purity, compassion, mercy and love are the very basic elements in this harmony of giving, taking, sharing...What would you say about it?

Finding our rhythm is not a simple task, understanding and being able to listen is the following step,  acting and dancing with your rhythm is an art of life. However the most important part is to balance your rhythm with other rhythms.  This is the real wisdom of reality... However, I am sure that you have already started this journey, and ready to accomplish it.

All in all, everything depends on perception and 
your interpretations. So, it is up to you to interpret the life as a heaven or hell.... As we all are taking part in this cosmic melody and rhythm, it becomes a matter of conscious decision to take part constructively. In any case, smile  and dance with the melody as  sincere as possible. Finally, what I can simply tell: Enjoy from the symphony of living, Just with your rhythm and harmony.



Best Regards,
