Listen-Within.org - Riding Aboard a Lost Ship?

Can it be that we are all aboard a ship that is lost at sea?

Everyday we wake to the same sea of lifetime patterns that come showering down upon us, and we punish ourselves with habits that move our ships side to side upon the waves of life. We are trying to move our ship forward in space and time while we try to remain in a balanced state so that we can retain our health and breathe easily.

The problem that most of us are facing is that there is no more time and space. We have run out of solutions to the deepening and towering waves that are crashing down upon us. There are no solutions when you are riding aboard a lost ship. In this human form we can only live for a short time before we are required to change form. We must move into unknown spaces and travel like a lost ship until we meet our future... perhaps a future that we had not planned upon or expected.

How we travel is as important as our destination. Life is a journey and we all want to travel in the best ship and yet the ship we travel in is often neglected.. and sometimes does not receive the best of care.

Of course I am talking about our human body... it is the ship that carries you forward in this life. We have the opportunity to take good care of our bodies.. but often the body like a well worn ship will break down and need repair.

We need to find a port in the storm so that we can repair our spiritual bodies. Yes there is more than just this body... but there are bodies within bodies that all have ports of destination... Each body has a connection between the other bodies that reside on different planes. This is why there is precognition, second sight, hunches, and feelings that lead us to make decisions in the middle of the night when there are no known better choices to be made.

Why do some people travel between bodies.... or have dream experiences?
Why do some people recall their experiences on a different plane of existance and other people do not remember where they have been?

Is it a matter of recollection... or a matter of focus and intention to remember and bring back what we have learned in another sphere of life?

As with most of life.. there are those that must test and study what they do not understand. People who are learners often write down their dreams and try to understand the meaning of life. There are other people who just move through life as if it were a dream, working their life away, following preconceived expected patterns of thought... so it would take a great effort for them to change... to try and understand something unfamiliar, unknown and new.

Like a lost ship in the night, we are all riding upon the waves light and sound. We can focus upon the darkness of the night or we can look for moonlight to guide us towards a future port. The purpose of meditation and spiritual contemplation is to create healthful results. If we keep our ship (our body) tuned by listening to the sound current within, we have an opportunity to glide forth into our future knowing somewhere and sometime soon we shall soon see the inner light. With knowledge comes understanding and awareness. In a world where we feel so alone... we suddenly find we are not alone... we are surrounded and enveloped in spirit. We can find inner peace...relax and know that our journey takes us forward no matter how hard we try to go backwards.

There is no past and there is no future... there is only this moment. We can only live in the present... that's why life is called a gift. This moment will never come again, so make it a good moment. You can direct your ship anywhere you choose, the path you are on was written before you were born., yet it's your ship, you can make choices. This is your life's journey and even if you've made a few wrong choices, know that you have made a few right choices also. Every day is a new day, don't look backwards or forwards only look to this present moment to make your life's journey a joy and worth remembering.
