The Journey into My Heart – Final Words – For Now

Six Virtues of the Heart

There are many entry points into a journey into one’s heart; the Wingmakers/Lyricus Teaching Order materials are only one such route. Over the course of this lifetime, I recognize half a dozen portals that gave me access to my heart’s tender qualities. “A Course in Miracles” was a major one for me. Each time I stepped upon such a path, I grew spiritually and gained valuable experiences that took me to the next phase of my journey.

The important thing to remember is that it is not any particular path that is the key to such growth. The important thing is that when one comes to such a “gateway” that leads inward, that one accepts the opportunity and commits to follow that path with an intention to learn and grow.

The Journey into My Heart — Understanding — Conclusion and Summary

Six Virtues of the Heart

This post concludes my exploration of Understanding, one of the Six Virtues of the Heart, as presented by the Wingmakers/Lyricus Teaching Order. Over the past couple of months, my inquiry has uncovered many blessings and benefits, one of the most valuable for me has been my increased stability as a “frequency holder” in the midst of increasing chaos.

One of my teachers spoke to me about chaos being an outcome of too much information flooding a system that is too small to contain it. It results in busting the old system (paradigm) apart. That is exactly what I see happening on our world; the flood of incoming Light = Information is resulting in the turmoil and chaos we see around us. Now, more than ever, it is imperative that we hold our center of Light in the midst of what appears to be certain destruction. And it is, for that which no longer serves the Whole.

Simultaneously, this increased Light (which each of us carries within our body) is laying the etheric foundation for the New Paradigm which is emerging from the ashes of the old. Many of us are noticing the evidence of this as well. However, the act of holding a stable, high vibrational frequency in the current times cannot be underestimated — it is truly HEROIC!

Tomas and I were speaking this morning of the blessing that this increase in stability has brought to our partnership. To all of you who are the Keepers of Your Own Flame — hold the course. And Thank You for diving deeply within to bring forth this miracle of birth that we are witnessing and experiencing at this momentous time on Earth.

Six Virtues of the Heart

Just in case your mind is wondering how long we are going to stay on the topic of Understanding, the answer is this post and one more. In my experience, Understanding forms the foundation for my exploration of all six heart virtues and it continues to be my “default” virtue that brings me back to center the most quickly when I find myself off-balance.

It is my hope that some of you may be impulsed to begin your own journey into these heart qualities and you may find that one of the other virtues becomes your foundation or entry point. Perfect! James (Mahu) stated in his introduction that he was reluctant even to describe the virtues for fear that his words would be taken as absolute and that would curtail others’ explorations. Not so in my case, as I have said, James’ words launched me into realms I had never before considered. And so be it with my words. May your own inquiry take its own unique flight path and may your journey be blessed by your own unique discoveries and insights.

There is a well-known phrase within Lyricus that roughly translated says: “The elegance of time is that it unravels the structures of space that have sealed love from itself.” The structures of space, in this case, refer to the human instrument. Only time can break down the rigid barriers or subtle membranes that prevent or diminish the love frequency from exerting its wisdom in the behaviors of the individual.

I remember telling Tomas some weeks ago that he might be witnessing me coming “unraveled.” I used that particular word, although it is not a word that I had used commonly until then. Synchronistically, this was about the time that we had begun looking into the Wingmaker’s material. As these weeks have rolled by and we have deepened our study of these teachings, I have felt that I am unraveling more and more each day. In a good way.

Lyricus’ use of the phrase “the elegance of time” particularly caught my attention, because I have always felt a great affinity with elegance, while at the same time feeling quite “captured” or “bound” by time. I found the suggestion that this unraveling is an elegant process most fascinating.

My thoughts on “Understanding” since my last journal entry. I am choosing to place this Heart Virtue at the top of my list, as I feel that this is the fundamental Understanding of the Multi-verse:

The world of form, just as the formless worlds, is composed of energetic structures . . . everything in the multiverse is energy . . . Energy is transformational; that is, it can alter or shift into other states of being or, in the case of humans, consciousness. . . . The [human] energetic structure is a form of light, which in turn is a texture of divine love.

What an amazing place to start! Before I read James’ insights, I was limiting my thoughts about “Understanding” to the way in which I related to “others.” I thought I should be “understanding” of those around me and try to “understand” the world from their vantage point, as a way of harmonizing them with me.

Continuing with this series of inquiry into my own inner Universe, I am sharing my first thoughts about the Heart Virtue, Understanding. Part 1 of this series can be found HERE.

April 30, 2015 – 2 AM

I awoke in the middle of the night after going to bed very early and sleeping soundly for about three hours. I had been awake for an hour and began to put my attention on how the six heart virtues are feeling within me. Tomas and I had read the sixth virtue (Forgiveness) last evening, so I went to bed with a sense of all of them operating in a strong braided fashion.

As I lay awake just a few minutes ago, I felt them all as a strong, unified moral core that overlays my spinal column. I’ve heard the saying “He has no spine.” I think this is what is meant by that – that a person is “spineless” — when he has no orientation or awareness of the heart virtues within himself and is unable to respond to life’s situations from a strong moral ground, in partnership with First Source. It is as if there is nothing holding that person up. He/she is unable to stand up to what life presents, because he/she has no understanding of the underlying connectedness to First Source that provides an unending supply of Divine Love to each person through the Virtues of the Heart. (Note: I suggest that what has often passed for moral strength during much of this patriarchal age has been the use of force — or the abuse of power — rather than a stance of power from knowing one’s connection to Creator/Source.)

The great 19^th Century Indian sage, Ramakrishna, used to say: “The wind of God’s Grace is always blowing but man has to lift the sail in order to catch this wind.” In his essay on the Heart Virtues, James also speaks of the “emotional coherence” of the six virtues acting like a sail that can catch the “wind” of the new energetics that will “quicken you [and] in a sense, you will time travel to another You.”

That is a provocative statement! It infers that through the development of emotional coherence, which is gained by cultivating the Virtues of the Heart, that there will come a moment when the Soul fragment is transported (quantum leaped) into an expanded version of Self. I believe we are approaching this critical moment as a species.
