I actually was joking when I put it in caps, but I can certainly see 
how that may not have been clear, as although I put a smiley-face 
after it, I often do that, simply to attempt to convey the underlying 
bliss! :-) 

And I didn't exactly repeat myself; I also amended my previous 
statement to include loving what was and what shall be -- but 
emphasizing most what IS, as NOW is where IT IS; NOW is where the 
Work most clearly shows itself, where the most Love and Bliss and 
Consciousness lies wrapped up in illusion. 

Truly, anyone can love what isn't; almost everybody in fact loves 
what isn't, or what appears not to be; if this stems from a hatred or 
denial of what IS, it spawns action stemming from stress and 
suffering, pain and fear and anger and hatred and contempt -- rajasic 
action, as it were, "acting out," instead of clearly seeing and 
healing the root-cause. That's fine, but IMO & IME there is no 
challenge there; one isn't facing one's own demons; one is attempting 
to change one's hairstyle by combing the mirror :-)

*lol* Not exactly; I don't consider there to be a fault; it is all 
perfect; it's the way my particles are choosing to play right now. If 
and when they wish to end their suffering, they will tire of their 
play and surrender into what IS, and that will be perfect too, even 
for them/me. 

If you feel Iraq should be different than the way it IS in this 
moment, I invite you to Inquire more closely :-)

What makes you think I wish to leave it as it is? Nothing stays the 
same. I LOVE it as it is, and based on that LOVE, I LOVE what is 
constantly emerging :-)

Loving what IS, is the result of doing the Work and remembering the 
truth: Sat = Being = Love = Truth; it is its own reward. Remaining 
outside of Love in this moment, refusing to acknowledge the 
perfection of what IS, is any given particle's own choice, which I 
LOVE and honor fully :-)

You wrote a great deal about how what IS is the rotting corpse of 
God, and so on. If you passionately LOVE the rotting corpse of God, 
excellent; then we have no argument! My error; I thought I smelled 
some rejection there, some "should be different" :-)

We've been over this point many times in the past few years; I guess 
I somehow haven't been clear -- I have said many times that I have no 
problem with change, with visions, with actions, with desires, with 
what could be and shall be. How could I? Life is change. I LOVE it 
all. Why do you think that somehow makes me want to resist change? 
LOVING it all is the perfect basis for change, the perfect foundation 
for change.

What makes you think I am stuck in that?

If you are exercising your divine right from a place of denial of Now 
and its consequent pain and anger and fear etc., IME your results 
will not be particularly divine :-)

Not in this moment, they couldn't, because they aren't, and this 
moment is what I am talking about Loving fully. It all starts Here, 
Now.

Who is saying we are restricting nature? Why do you think that Loving 
what IS implies stagnation? I have found precisely the opposite :-)

Not if you passionately love the "rotting corpse of God" in this 
moment, with all your heart -- otherwise, yes :-)

This is where we differ -- IME Loving what IS is not "quicksand"; it 
is divine heartfire :-) 

*L*L*L*
