The reflecting Dance of life (The Spanish Dancers)
Leendert
Today Shakti Gawain inspired me to put this image above in my mind; "a conscious relationship is a dance together in which I constantly mirror the others process"; in what should be progress or EVOLUTION.
My dancing partners should stimulate me to evolve in my dancing, style, techniques and create progression in my life and I should do the same, the other way around. The more me and my "dance partners" grow, the more beautiful the dance of life becomes, like a synchronisation of steps and movements. If I want to test the relationship, I go out there and dance with him/her, you will see what I mean, with this thought in your mind.
When I look at my relationships and imagine myself dancing, I can see if there are potential problems between me and my relationship.
(If you cannot dance at all.... I do not take that as an excuse, :-), because dancing is movement and anyone who is healthy enough can move. So if you can't move, you just have to dance in your imagination, hey, that will work to, if you practice!)
Man can dance with Woman or any other combination, try it it is fun! Mirror your partner in their needs and your wants, level out, create a balance. Being perfect imaginary dancing partners, all the time needs practice but images can help you to learn more quickly.
Shall we dance?

namaste Leendert;
Regarding this divine dance I would like to share some thoughts with you from someone I love very much…he is very young, but a wise soul beyond eons. His name is Rob, he`s in Australia but he has a piece of my heart!
I hope you don`t mind it is a bit long….but the divine dance reminded me of what he wrote!…and I thought I would share it with you. he wrote it for me, but it`s for all who want it!
LOVE
Sometimes we fall in love, with the help of another person, we are
able to feel safe enough to overcome our core fears, and open our
hearts to be who we truely are.
Sometimes we play with a child, and with thier help, deep within us
kindness and care and love and freedom come into us, as we are given
the opportunity to express it.
Sometimes when we are with our family and friends, we learn about
caring, hounouring, relying upon, gratitude, greatfulness, harmony,
and these come to fruition within us, because through this expereince
we can express them.
However sometimes we miss the point-(“sin”), we argue, get
defensive, unconscious and create and experience suffering.
This is because we have a limited perspective and are trying to
protect our hearts, not because we are bad people.
Through all of this joyful life, it is easy to get confused about
love, it is so wonderful, so profound, so complete, so peaceful, so
passionate, so holy, so sacred, so alive, so grounded, that it is
easy to forget that the love we share, comes from within.
Love is not outside of us, when you are in love, the love you feel
is within you.
The kingdom of god is inside each and every one of us, waiting,
waiting to burst free.
There can be many people, many places, many things, thoughts or
beliefs, that can woo love up in the depths of us. Indeed this life
is the divine romance, the dance of duality, form and formless.
But these things that woo love up in the deep sacredness of our
hearts, they are not love, they are merely that which allows us to
feel safe to express and be love.
To be still is to realise love without condition.
True meditation, is true love.
Natural and unformed,
without beggining or end
as the ocean romances the shore, and the earth travels across bosem
of endless space
the tree in its stillness and silence
and the meditator within awareness
this romance that is all that exists
each atom, each body sacred and alive with this presence
is not dependent upon the forms that express it
for the forms arise and pass away
like sandunes in the wind
but the underlying nature
remains
eternal, changeless
to be at peace, is to live in harmony with nature
to live in harmony with nature is to expess love
love is now -(not in the past of future)
love is internal -(not external)
love is your nature-(awareness)
love and peace be with you -(may you be with your-self) LMAO
Put the music on and RAVE AWAY! :) :)
