The Point Of Perspective
by Joy Truscott
Feeling the connection to nature and all life becomes apparent to us when we allow our perspective to shift. Inspired by a walk along the Robberg Nature Reserve in Plettenberg Bay, South Africa, we choose to connect our Energy as Light towards a peak or pinnacle so that we radiate our collective energy towards the Highest Good of all Life.

Each one of us is connected to an amazing network,
Beautiful threads of connectivity.
So just imagine that when you connect to just one other,
That you're also beaming love towards them,
But at the same time you're beaming that love towards all those with whom they are connected.
And imagine how beautiful that would look if we could see it energetically,
Like a beam of light going out,
And it goes straight into the centre,
The heart and the solar plexus of that person,
And then from that person the light fragments and opens up into a beautiful ray of light and the full spectrum of colour.
So we're going to play with the idea of colour and the spectrum,
And just feel the energy and the honouring of how we can know energy as light,
Vibration,
Colour,
Sound,
And we think about a rainbow and the rainbow effect that is created.
So where you are,
Just settle in,
Settle in just for a minute,
And let's come into this gracious space and hold that frequency.
Beautiful,
Beautiful.
Just relax,
Drop your shoulders,
Relax your beautiful face,
Sit deeply into the space that is holding you,
And feel a sense of comfort being here.
Take deep breaths into this beautiful body,
And as you breathe out expand the energy into this moment.
Deep breaths,
And just drop again.
Place yourself in a beautiful pod,
A chrysalis of light and love,
And imagine that you are in this beautiful pod,
The safe cocoon,
And that everything that is in this space is filled with the highest vibration of light and love.
And as you rest in here,
Feel the energy of that enveloping you,
Comforting you,
Holding you,
Wrapping its arms around you.
And we imagine that we are sitting in a beautiful place in nature,
And we feel the earth beneath us,
These massive rocks,
And we feel the strength of the space and the rocks holding us,
And we realize that the little rock that we are sitting on,
And we are just feeling a part of this rock which belongs to a mountain,
And even if we're not very high up,
The path that is sticking up and holding us,
Creating a seat for us where we can view the world,
This rock is deeply embedded into the earth,
And feel the energy of that deep embedded holding frequency.
So strong,
So powerful.
And then imagine now as your eyes are closed that we can be in that space,
And imagine that you are looking into the bluest sky that you can imagine,
Far reaching beyond and beyond and beyond.
You can hear the sounds of the water crashing upon the rocks beneath you.
You can hear the birds circling,
Calling,
Feeling the freedom of this beautiful wide open space,
This world that is theirs.
For just a little while I can be here and experience this amazing world by sitting still and feeling like I am part of this world experience,
This reality.
Allow yourself to imagine what else you could tune into.
And I share this experience with you as this feeling came in as I walked the beautiful Raaburg here in Plittenberg Bay,
South Africa,
And finding the self at the quiet space,
And hearing the seals way down below and the community that they have calling and talking to each other with their distinctive sounds and grunts.
It occurs to us that we are visitors in this world.
These beautiful creatures have no concept of who we are and what our world is like.
Their entire existence is here on the edge of the rock face and the ocean that they splash and play and dance and manoeuvre into,
Feed.
And then the great rocks,
Baked warm with sun,
That they clamber upon and rest and call and speak to each other.
And they have no concept of me sitting somewhere further up,
Just listening to them.
And for a little while I can imagine I'm part of their world and that this is all that is our existence.
There is nothing else.
The water,
The weather,
The fish,
The swimming,
The bathing in the sun,
The connecting with one another.
There is nothing else.
And from this perspective we gain a great insight into how distracted and busy our own lives are,
How fragmented they are and how distorted they are.
And then looking up and looking way along the peninsula back towards the town and the homes and from this point there is no connection to the sound,
The people.
Everyone that I know and love there has got no idea that I am here.
This distance allows me to not be attached.
And then I think about what it is that I am attached to.
And if you are sitting in your imagination in this place,
There is nothing but the sun upon your back and the breeze that lifts your hair and touches your face and the sounds of the animals so well adapted to this climate,
This space and place.
And imagine you are there and you hold that question in your being.
What am I attached to?
That right now and right here there is nothing that needs me or pulls me.
There are no requirements,
No performance.
I am completely outside of the karma and the drama that is playing out.
I am not in a time schedule.
I am not hastening to do the next thing.
Imagine that this could be you simply being in this space and allowing.
Allowing yourself to be present with presence,
With all that is,
No attachment.
The sound of the seals and the raging water upon the rocks and the blue open clear sky.
And the awareness of the busyness and the drama of the life that we walked away from for just a little while.
Feel in your being how wonderful it is for us to walk away from that chaos even if it is just in our imagination.
There is a resting place here for us.
Where you are right now,
Let your body sit heavily where you are.
Relax your body.
Relax into the space where you are.
Equally where I am right now,
It is the perfect place for me to be.
Allow yourself to really feel that.
I am not seeking something better,
More dramatic.
I am allowing me to be in this space and to hear the sounds around me,
To feel the temperature.
To be connected with this little facet of life that is revealing itself to me.
Rest here.
What is this little facet of life right here,
Right now,
Revealing to me?
How willing am I to be part of the air and the temperature?
How willing am I to allow the place upon which I am seated to hold me,
Unconditionally hold me?
How willing am I to have all my senses feel and perceive what they can without a need to adjust any of this,
Without any need to adjust me?
That right now I can simply be here.
This vast,
Expansive space opens up to reveal the gifts that are to come into my awareness.
For a little while I'm playing with the five senses of my mortal form,
Interpreting where I am,
Who I am.
Even with my eyes closed,
So much that I can perceive and understand through these amazing five senses.
And instantly I can move into the beyond and visualise myself sitting upon that beautiful rock with the smell of the ocean,
With the warmth upon my being.
And at the exact same moment as I am here,
I can equally be there.
We think how amazing this being is for the information that we have been gathering through being in form that helps us to inform our being now while we play in our imagination.
We know what it feels like to sit in the sun,
To sit on a rock,
To smell the air and the ozone around us.
And our mind creates that reality deep within.
That reality is as real as the one that we are perceiving ourselves to be in right now in our physical form.
We understand now that the gift of informing and the journey that we have been creating is so that we can connect and make these synaptic energy connections.
So that we can move through them towards that which we have known in some way.
It is through the form that we are informed as we perform in the reality and the space that we find ourselves in.
And the next step is to transform.
We are now experiencing that to go beyond this form.
Relax your body and bring your awareness once again to where it is that you are resting and listening to this.
Become acutely aware through your sensory being where you are now.
Now draw to your awareness the highest point of a mountain in your area,
A rocky outcrop,
Whatever it might be where you live.
Visualize that highest point.
And imagine that where each of us is resting now that we can connect our awareness to that point instantly.
Even if we have never physically been there,
We have enough sensory input to recreate it and know it just the same.
The highest point is where we are now going to beam our light.
Imagine this radiant light filled with all the colours of the full spectrum.
And imagine the message that we would love to place at that point to be a signal like a lighthouse in a dark night.
That we are placing a signal in this point.
What would we place here now when we know that all the stuff that we are creating is a huge distraction?
And that if we get to the very,
Very basic base point of what it is that we would wish and desire,
It would be for love and peace and harmony.
Now to that point that you are visualizing as a collective,
Let us beam our energy towards it.
And imagine we are switching on a pulse of light,
A message into all that is.
We don't just let this be a thought,
It is more powerful if it is a feeling.
Open your heart to the feeling of love.
Let it radiate from your heart now and direct it very purposefully to be a resource of energy at this pivot point that we have chosen.
You can connect in here at any time and bring even more of this frequency in.
How wonderful it is to feel so much love and from that peace and harmony,
Kindness and compassion,
Collaboration and truth,
It unfolds perfectly.
And around the space that we are in right now,
Bring that beautiful energy around you like an orb of light and we ground that energy into our being.
As we bring the energy in and through our being as a sound,
A resonance,
Feel you being supported by this earth.
I support this life,
This earth and all life and this earth and this life supports me abundantly.
Deep breath in.
Beautiful energy,
A sound that carries us home.
That this earth upon which we are having this experience is the greatest space for us to remember that we are connected in to all that is.
From the small rocky outcrop and from the place of our own homes and life experiences,
We are within the spectrum of pure light and love.
Deep breath.
Now just rest here for a moment.
And allow yourselves to feel the blessing of your life and all life.
May the peace be in you and may you learn to radiate it into all that is as we uplift consciousness.
Deep breath into your body and I know it's lovely to stay in those spaces,
Do so.
If you feel like this is where you'd love to be and stay and hold the energy,
Just do that.
And when you come back and back into your own life,
Hold a different energy,
Awareness of who you are and where you are and the potential of your energy being truly is the greatest gift that we can give to all life as we connect in the collective consciousness.
So much love to you all.
Thank you for being you.
Thank you for you.
Namaste.
