Conversation with Buddha and Zoe: Where are you? An Exercise

Buddha: So reader, with a pen and paper in front of you draw a square and put you name inside the square.

Now where are you, are you in your body or are you in the square?  Are you in both?  For those of you who are acquainted with the sensations of energy, are you pulled into the square therefore connected to it or do you simply feel nothing at all?

Now draw a circle under the square, put your name in this.  Draw a line connecting the square to the circle.  Where are you now? You are in your body, you are in the square, you are also in the circle and you have made a connection.

Now below the circle draw a square and write the name of your sibling or the name of your friend.  Where are you now?  You are in your body, you are in your square, your circle, the connections between your square and your circle.  Are you in this square with your sibling or friends name?  No for you can’t.  For those of you who are sensitive to energies do you feel attracted or repelled to the square with another name in it?  This square, with the other name in it, is a form that is separate to your own yet can you enter that form?  No. You can depict that form in letters and shape.  This has often been the case with art but can you enter the form of another?  No.

So you cannot enter the form of another.  But you can enter other forms of yourself.  Now I will try not to speak in riddles as this is a subject that I could speak about for many hours.

You, whilst here on earth, have a body yet you are able to put parts of yourself into form that is outside of your body.  You do this with your work.  You do this with your food when you create a meal.  With every creative project you put part of yourself and you become linked to that creative project.  So you create a trail whilst living; a trail of essence or, at least those who are working and connected to their essence, create this.

There is a piece of you in everything you will do, in everything you have ever done.  And this is deliberately been designed to be the case.  You are unbelievably creative and invest you in everything you do.  Yet the great experience for most of you is life lives on automatic pilot or with resistance.  Would you change what you did and what you do if you knew that part of yourself became invested in it and connected to it?

This is my question for all of you today.  You cannot escape your actions, the choices.  This is so.  At all times you can also change form.  This is so.  So when you realize that you have been drawing squares through deeds and realize that you do not like the fact that part of you is invested in a square then you can simply start from that point to draw a circle or any other shape you fancy.  For whilst you need to reconcile what has been done with what you do, with the present and with where you are, know that you can also use the present to create a new.

This is my lesson for today.
