Dear Ones,

I saw a video by Alan Watts last night; it was the first time I had looked into his work. What he said corresponded closely to what I have experienced in my own life. That is a topic I have hesitated to broach, out of a natural aversion to appearing very different from other people.

Awakening does set a person apart from other people … the more so, in my case, because on meeting a man I can to some extent see the course of his life so far, and the likely course our lives together might take were we to become romantically involved.

Knowing the beginning and the end (as it were) puts a damper on romantic love. And then there is the standing above the passing show, as mentioned by Alan Watts in the video. Seeing the third dimension as an unfolding of Lila … of the Divine play … makes it difficult to take ‘falling in love’ … which once was an overwhelming gut response for me … all that seriously. I agree wholeheartedly with Alan Watts on that. In fact, insofar as a woman may do so, I feel as if I am standing right their in his shoes! That was quite a shock indeed.

Then again, there is a wonderful new kind of ‘meeting’ or ‘encounter’ that takes place when an Awakened person … whether man or woman … enjoys. I see that Alan Watts terms this ‘presence’. I myself feel it as a temporary merging of fields or Light … what I term ‘personal energy fields’ or ‘bodies of Light’ in my “Mastering the Mind” series that begins here …

Alan Watts was influenced by Zen Buddhism and I, on the other hand, am a Christian and a Lightworker. Thus I am thinking what is expressed in his below-referenced video may be a characteristic of the Awakened Soul, no matter what their religious background. So I thought I would recommend the video to you …

I feel this video is a fruitful accompaniment for this video …

Hope you enjoy my recommendation of the Alan Watts video as much as did I.

In love, light and joy
