Post Six .... - BALINESE MAGIC HEART

TRANSFORMING FEAR TO LOVE........PEACE



First light of dawn from our porch in Bali

One morning in Bali, we were sitting on the porch having breakfast.  Our conversation was about our explorations of the Spiritual Energy of Bali and how everyone in Bali lived in and from their hearts.

As we finished breakfast Wayan, the Balinese man who was the caretaker of the house for the people who owned it, came to take our dishes back to the kitchen. He listened to our conversation for a moment as he waited for us to pause so he could clear the table.

When we paused he looked at us and smiles as he spoke. "why do you spend so much time talking about life. To Balinese life is very simply. We have one way to live." With that he put down his tray and looked into our hearts as he spoke.


We are here to learn how to live.

When things are in front of us that we do not like
We do not get angry or push them way.

We reach out and put our arms around them 
as we pull them into our heart.

With the final sentence he stretched his arms out as if to surround the fear. He them pulled it into his heart. A soft beautiful smile of peace filled his face and radiated from his entire body. Without another word, for no words were necessary, he picked up his tray, cleared the table and returned to the kitchen to finish his morning kitchen duties.

After he left we sat in silence reflecting on the beauty and simplicity of his wisdom and how he truly lived it. In three simple sentences he had captured the concept of transforming fear to love and moving from the pain and chaos of the duality of life to the state of peace, Unity and Oneness of life.  


...........another step on the path of life

As we continued our travels and exploration of Bali it became clearer and clearer that this is the model that everyone in Bali lives. There is no duality of judgement over events for all events are witnessed  from the state of Unity and Oneness from within their Magic Hearts. Each time we used the model it became easier and easier to make the transformational shift from the duality of fear to the Unity and Oneness of Love. 

With this simply yet powerful moment our decision was re-made to focus totally on living in our Magic Hearts....every day all day.

Thank you Bali for this model and persona has brought us both to a deeper and lasting state of inner and outer peace. 

Each day becomes  more and more obvious that peace is an inside job. 
Until we are able to live without pointing our finger at others as the cause of the pain 
the person pointing will continue to live in pain and dis-ease.
