Centering on the Center

At the center of everything is a beginning.  The Center is the core of all that is.  From the Center emanates the waves of energies that form life.  The Center is unique from and yet one and the same with the Great Space.  Within the Center is an unlimited force; a source of energy without end.

The Center is represented in form by the Celtic Cross, the Medicine Wheel, the Swastika and Yatiti etc.  Within the very center of these forms there is a Fire. It is this Fire that is the Center.  It is the original Fire of existence.  The forms with their centers allow our human minds to shape the essence of the Center.  These structures allow for a point of focus.

The Center is who we are.  The Center is the reason for our being.  At the center of every kingdom: mineral, plant, animal and human resides the Fire of the ancient Center, the source of our destiny.  We are That which always is and shall always be.  We are the eternity of our Center.

Each of us walks a road that is unique and specific to our reason for being.  On this road the subtle speaks, pointing the way to our higher purpose.  Along the way we encounter the full expression of life.  However, most seldom recognize that at each turn, over every hill and in every moment we are walking in companionship.

Our companion along the journey is our True Self, a spark of the Fire.  This True Self is our Soul that resides in the Center.  We are never truly without a companion.  Yet, we seek to find companionship and in our searching usually end up suffering because of choices we make.

The Center is stillness.  It is the knowing that is always right.  Within our Center we know all that is or will ever be.  However, through life’s circumstances we have diluted our true sense energies and become slaves to the lesser feelings, emotions and desires of the false self. 

We all know ‘The Way’; we just have to realize it is under cloud cover.  The truth of all things is revealed to us through our finer sense energies.  Centering is getting to know how these finer energies operate, how they feel in our mind, body and spirit.  The ‘my gut’, I got a feeling’ or ‘something told me’ are good examples of our Soul (Center) communicating with our mind, body and spirit.
