Christopher Hansard:[ a space in time]

each of us

is

a space in time

a place in space

and a spark of mind

each of us is a space in time

a place in space

a noetic motion

in

a wave of vibration

each of a space in time, a place in space

a spark of mind

Christopher Hansard:[ Minuet on Credit]

1

 

Benjamin Franklin would have been refused credit

so would Plato too,

Socrates, Wagner and Schiller

Mahler, most certainly Mozart

unacceptable credit risks

St Francis having no real assets

would be dismissed

George Washington

Marqui de Sade or Rocheford,

Duke of Wellington, Napoleon

too,

Balachine, Gorky

Kafka

Credit

belongs

to

those

whose heaven is on earth

covered up by concrete

cemented by debt

 

2

 

anger is the most communicable disease

of the politically correct community

if you want to be truly authentic

know where your anger

arises from.

heal it and move on

know where your greed arises from

heal it and move on

know where your lust in all its forms arises from

heal it and move on

 

3

 

my time here is over

i have moved on

 

4

 

karma is intentional action, thought and deed

free yourself from ignorance to understand full intention

love all things

 

5

 

look into the noise of life

and hear the silence

the music

the light

the rushing of

the Way

Christopher Hansard:[When the Sunlight Falls]

When the sunlight falls upon the waves

carefree and glancing as they lap around the

last remains of a sky scraping tower

the young child from the little boat looks up with wondering eyes

‘who made these things?’ his mother catches his thoughts..

‘men who were like gods, men who fell to the earth and could not get up again’

 

the child wonders,sad thoughts

trawling a memory of what was once

another world, fingers trailing in water

as fish swirl around the little boat

as by thought it moves silently

across the great saltwater lake

 

 

deep in the refracted depths

white whales harvest the plankton

while a serrated moon

hangs tilted in the blue starred night

 

years pass the child now a man

goes past in a little boat

and his daughter wonders the very same as he once did

a hundred years go past

people pass by they do not see the ruins

they do not know what they are

the ruins

they have slipped

from memory and so they do not exist

Christopher Hansard:[Love is Within Us]

 

ONE:

 

Wisdom has a sadness of its own, pensive like a cello playing in a soft snow fall

Compassion holds a knowingness that looks into all things with an unblinking eye

Anger seeks to include everyone in its rage of ignorance and self-defeat,

Greed seeks solace in having all it can to bury the oncoming fear

Lust craves a chance at halting mortality and believes in the tempoary as real

Illumination lights only what needs to be illuminated for the awakening of the Self happens in the dark

Loss and learning go together, and love and liberation are good friends.

 

TWO:

 

Love was within us before we came and went, love was in the first cosmic form
and fell in the first rainfall, love was within us and will be when we forget that we once dwelt
upon the Earth, love was within the first rising spark of Wisdom and the clear sight of Compassion
and Love took the journey willingly into the dark matter and confusion of the temporal world in order
to evolve back to its own recognition again.

THREE:

 

The human race is a pathway in which Love plies its course,
a river that flows through time and space
creating diversity and matter, consciousness and place,
perception and awakening and the nature of living light
Love has made the chance for Life
when it embraced itself openly with Light,

for Love and Life make Light and from that all things are:

for in Light, Consciousness takes form

shrouding Love’s constant breath
and in that come the two eternal seasons, mortal life and mortal death
two great teachings of Love and Light
by which the Cosmos and Consciousness descend and create form

The Moment is Illusory

The moment comes fleeting,

illusory and charmed

like a bright star full of inspiration

empowered by the

flash of intuition

that leads us

past the facade of the world,

moments are illusory

there is no now,

formed by the gaps of the brain

we are children of the past

but by seeing the connections

we can jump into the gaps

between moments

and discover

the eternal

 

Living in the moment is a mental rat trap

stop ..

go beyond moments,

in the nanosecond that our brain pauses

between processing billions of  types of information

 

let your self dive

beyond

the brain made world

to

the place of consciousness

 

pause and be still

and there

the

gaps will

open,

vast ,

doorways

to the

underlying

reality

What Will You Do?

What will You do when you can not put gas into your car?

What will You do when you can not buy your food at the supermarket?

What will you do if you can not find any water clean enough to drink?

What will you do when the lights go out?

What will you do if your software fails?

What will you do if all that you know suddenly falls apart?

What will you do?

What will you do when the rain fall burns your skin?

What will you do when the rain stops falling?

What will you do when the rain pours down day and night ?

What will you do when the last glacier evaporates?

What will you do when all the knowhow of all that you take for granted is meaningless and cannot save you?

What will you do?

Stand in the light of your own being and try not to be afraid, that is what you can do

When the Zoo gets raided for the meat in the cages what will you do?

When everyone around you is in despair what will you do?

Stand in the light of your being and try not to be afraid, that’s what you can do ..

Start now and learn how to know what to do,

Stand in the light of your being and try not to be afraid

Trust the cycle of spiritual unfoldment in the world

This is the sad time of the World versus the Earth, when there needs to be no competition

When the Earth asks you, and that day will come, what did you do? What will your answer be?

The World has no answer and no question. That is why many do not know what to do.

There are two species of humanity, one dwells within The World

The other dwells with the Earth..the choice is , what will you do?

Christopher Hansard:[ Karma, Rebirth and Reincarnation]

People often wonder… what is Karma?

Karma is any intentional process, a thought, action, word or gesture or combination of all that is done with intent and focus. This the primary impulse of Karma. It does not matter whether the intent is positive or negative.  Because such activity creates many patterns that replicate themselves beyond measurement, we all are linked in a karmic fish net, that trawls the bottom of our unconscious karmic ocean.

If we wish to change patterns in our life, we need to understand what prompts our thoughts, actions, words and gestures, and what are the drives behind our intentions and focus. We can change karmic patterns by changing the nature of our intentions to the world, our inner world, outer world and to all people and other living creatures.

People often wonder …what  is Rebirth, thinking it the same as Reincarnation.

Rebirth is the process of suddenly been born as soon as you are dead without any understanding or control over the emotional, psychological and spiritual aspects of dying. If you lived a confused life and died with confusion, fear or any other overwhelming emotion that caused you to feel trapped,then it can be that you will be born immediately, as there are endless wombs waiting to be filled with life.

Rebirth is sudden and without understanding, it is a rush an endless flow and pattern. But you can rise out of that pattern by learning how to become conscious and more aware of your inner state so it does not sabotage your mental state as you die. This leads us to Reincarnation.

People often wonder… what Reincarnation is…

Reincarnation is the conscious application of mental , emotional and spiritual insight to yourself as you die, thus clearing away all the inner fears and projections that emanate around you as you die. You create a choice within you as to how you shall be, you enter into a dimension of choices. And when you know it is right, you have an element of choice over how, when and to whom you will be born.

In the death process if you enter into the state of clarity, you can redeem yourself, heal all your regrets, learn as to the whys and hows of your karmic legacy and inheritance and transform yourself.

Death is the great equalizer but in that you have choice and intention and focus.  Whatever you have done, you can heal in the process of death, and stay in the dimensions between the former life and the possibility of a new one, to enhance your inner evolution and well being.

Christopher Hansard:[Are You Happy?]

Are you happy?

Can you ask yourself and find an answer?

There is no quick answer, only a slow one that evolves as you experience your evolution through the challenges of life .

Happiness comes and goes, but its sweetness is a reminder, that beneath the delights of happiness exists a greater joy and contentment that shows us all, the ‘being’ , within the human..

Happiness improves our health and conscious, but the media has hijacked it, turning it into something ‘aspirational’ like a fashion item or latest gizmo, happiness is for us to see beyond ourselves and to be thankful for the life we can make from the life we have.

Happiness is also a choice, both a belief, as an act of faith and a psychological state that shifts our consciousness.

How do we find happiness?

We need to look within for that is where its foundation lies,

and without, not in things, but in our relationships to people,

the natural world and the place we stand in,

as we express who we think we are.

Happiness is trust, a trust in the goodness of life, people and ones Self.

If you can not trust in these, then happiness takes time to emerge into your daily activities and thinking.

Happiness is waiting for you to claim it as your own.
