Odd -- I thought I was very clear! Maybe if I speak louder :-) I PASSIONATELY LOVE IT ALL, AS IT IS, and AS IT WAS, and AS IT SHALL BE. I MOST PASSIONATELY LOVE IT AS IT IS, in this moment, because THAT'S THE WAY IT IS, RIGHT NOW, and NOW is WHERE IT IS AT. >A first for you. :) Loving what is is fine -- though see my > counter post that you inspired -- Loving What Isn't.

It's not a matter of *my* choice -- it's the particle's choice, always, to imagine that it's not me, to explore its denial of me and of what IS, and consequently to suffer, for just as long and as intensely as it wishes :-) >Its all just Perfect as it is. Nothing needs healing. Not at all -- any thing that we see as a "should" outside ourselves needs healing, for it is a thought that is denying what IS and thus is a lie. The bodymind knows it's a lie because it hurts; it creates stress and suffering. Genuine peace and love and bliss are reattained when we Inquire, and through Inquiry see through and give up the lies and denial and external "shoulds" -- as we realize they are all projections; we've been attacking illusory demons, ourselves and others, out of the pain and anguish we've been inflicting on ourselves through our false beliefs, that they all out there "should" be different. Something out there SHOULD be different: Is that really true? Are we really sure that's true? How does it feel to think they "should" be different? How would we feel without that thought? Can we see any stress-free reason to keep that thought? Are the turn-arounds on the thought equally true or truer -- are those detested qualities "out there" really inside ourselves? Anyone can react against the evil out there and act to change it, and most do. More power to them! But IME it takes real courage to root out the evil where it actually lies -- in our own beliefs, our own thoughts. That's when we truly end the war. Right action continues, as always. And IME the actions arising from Love and Peace and Bliss are infinitely more effective than those arising from pain and suffering and contempt and hatred -- i.e. from false beliefs and projections :-)
