More Than the Hope of Joy
Opening my heart to write to you all now...what a joy to write about joy!
Joy is like that: if you look at it, study it, muse about it, and or consider it, it will magnify. It will come forward towards you to Be With you. What a motive I have, to support you to experience joy...more joy, some joy, any scrap of that...yes!
We are not looking at the hope of joy. Hope sort of holds whatever it is that is 'hoped for' away from you as if it isn't here now. Joy is closer than that and much more simple.
Joy can be described newly in multitudes of ways, we all know when we feel joy. To describe it we just say 'joy' and we all know what that is.
Feeling gratitude, is a kind of joy. Love is another kind of joy. Wonder, yes, clearly a beautiful joy. Contentment...ah yes, a beautiful joy. Recognizing beauty, or feeling beauty is a joy too. Feeling connected to others, yes joy...feeling connected to all that are close to me. Feeling connected to the Universe is another joy.
A joy.
It is a joy to write to you all speaking about joy. Of course there is a smile on my face and in my heart as these words spill out....yes!
When you look to see, what is 'joy' to you? When have you used that word? When have you felt it? If you have felt joy ever, you could feel it now...perhaps especially with the support of these words? As soon as you remember a joyful experience, it becomes part of Now, right here with you. It’s perfectly fine to do so consciously in response to my suggestion - just now, to let yourself feel joy by remembering joyful moments.
Joy seems to me to be a sort of glow that fills me. Always, always, it is found here now, in the very moment of considering it...of remembering That. Joy is found right here at home with you.
This Satsang Invitation email, is, as always ,meant as a support to you to remember what you already know. A reminder to sit down with aspects of yourSelf that you know. Let me know about your experiencing of joy!
Satsang is a space to stop and fall in With the moment, to let go of all that has happened, all that is supposed to happen, and Be Home with yourSelf exactly as you are. In that space, joy has space to be known. If there is something else that is seemingly most present that makes it harder to 'hear' or feel the joy, then we can explore that.
It is a space, the Satsang space, to come Home to yourSelf and start fresh and new again...lighter than you were before. Of course this is what Love would have for you!! And I agree with Love.
with love,
Canela
