Trust

The World is a Reflection of Your Love and Joy

“Don’t waste your life for that which is going to be taken away. Trust life… And with trust, something immense opens up.” - from OSHO ZEN TAROT p.61

The other day I was writing about trust and I’ve decided to simply transcribe that writing here for you along with one of my poems. Enjoy!

The Questions

What does it mean to truly trust in life? What does it actually look like and what must be given up in order to trust fully?

To trust in life is to give up control. The more you trust in life the less control you require.

“I trust you” is to say that I release myself to you. That I give way my desire for control in the love of another- Trust.

I realize I will be ok in your arms- in your care. I forfeight the concept of fighting against the one who I trust and instead develop more of a team with this person/entity/concept. Trust looks like the dissolving of the individual into a larger consciousness.

Is there a more vulnurable state than full trust?

Mantras Written:

I trust the universe. I trust the universe to guide me, the individual consciousness within the Grand Consciousness.

I trust myself. I trust others. I trust my Heart. I trust Love. I trust in the Every~Thing, knowing that it will all work out in the end, in the best way that could have ever been.

I trust in myself. I trust in the universe. I trust in all the ways growth and expansion can appear in my life.

I Love. I am Love. I am Loved.

As long as I follow and am in full trust of my Heart, I can only fall upwards into ever-expanding love, presence, existance, and beauty.

I trust the universe. I trust all those who inhabit this planet. I trust them as I would trust myself. Even still, I trust my own Heart and I let my Heart guide me in everything I do.

I trust the process. I trust myself. I trust the universe. I trust my Heart.

we drink all of this Life
this treasure ~ ten thousand heavens
                          on earth

threading the needle to understand joy
Living ~ no longer captured by
               illusions of suffering

	quiet now ~ be

the moon ~ a white flower ~ melting snow

	don’t worry 
	be completely at ease
	all things have been attended to

the cat-mind sleeps 
the spirit-elephant burgeons non~ego
the great hero investigates the animal~soul
enjoying perceptions in majestic solitude

Absolute~Reality lies there
filling presence with Life's springwater
overflowing the brim of pleasure

savoring without thirst
