Radiant Emptiness

Greetings everyone! I hope you are having a great day today.
If you know me (which you probably do) you know my passion and joy lie in the place where creativity, science, energy and consciousness, dance, somatic-psychology, and spirit all swirl together. I believe these things do not cancel each other out, that in fact intuition and imagination are a necessary ingredient in science and knowledge. That art and creativity leads to real conversations with parts of ourselves that might otherwise be left behind. And that what we call spirit is a connecting field so beyond our current understanding that we can only call it mystical.

So today I invite you to go on a ride of imagination,,, of taking in this short writing and poetry while feeling your body and allowing sensation and images to arise, of playing in the field of mystery.

Enjoy and I will see you soon!
Tracy

Radiant Emptiness
We are infinite beings living in finite bodies.

The energetic field is being projected, right here and right now, from an infinite center. The projection is like a fluid, brilliant, outline or blueprint, and it houses our deepest, most true essence. And it is also affected by the spikes, arrows, indents, movement, of life experience. The thoughts we think repeatedly over time, fear and anxiety, trauma-both current and inherited, relationships, emotions, creativity, joy, where we live, the earth, place, society, love, everything around us affects our vibrational field.

You are life. Life has a vibration. The burning unfolding of life energy radiates within every single one of us. And IT is really all that there is. IT is the same thing that is pushing through that tree, and that animal, and your food. Even our “dead” objects, this desk, that piece of paper, for them to exist in our eyes at all they hold some life, even a drop of it. They started from life and they were made with life. A corpse is not stagnant, it is transforming into something else, ashes, the earth…

So what is the radiance of life within us? It is indescribable though we have tried. The poets, the mystics, the teachers.. All tried.

Here is one of my attempts:

RADIANT EMPTINESS #1

What if who you are 

Is something unknowable 

Mysterious

A glimpse of a light passing just out of sight,

An urging feeling on the edge of sensation.

What if how you are is the ricochet-stepping down

Process for who you are

The mystery burning on the walls

Seeming to create impulse
