Part 1. Time. Where is my Guru?
Time
“Time is of the essence” means that a hurry is now required.
The thought of that gives me anxiety. Hurry, hurry, hurry! No thanks. Nature does not know or relate to or even comprehend the words “hurry” or “time” and I’m starting to understand and follow natures lead. Nature is transparent. If you take some time to observe nature it is easy to see what will happen next.
There is an old saying, “I can see right through you,” and there has never been a more valid ‘time’ than this one to start living more consciously. HURRY! There is a shift happening and if you are in tune with your higher-mind then you already know what I’m saying and are aware of the necessity to live, walk and speak your truth. It is time to live more transparently - to lead by example, to create, grow, expand and inspire.
“At the beach, life is different. Time doesn’t move hour to hour but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides, and follow the sun.” -Author Unknown
Living in Nicaragua and spending lots of time in the ocean and in the jungle provides me a lot of time. Time alone, but not really alone when you think about the oneness and the connectedness of all things and beings. Thank you for cementing this into my spirituality Mike Grefner. I do hear the echo. I do have time to sit with myself. I take the time. Time to sit with thought, or no thought. Time to determine my life’s purpose. Time to listen to my heart-mind and to follow my dreams and intuition, let them expand and grow. Time to climb the highest peak where I can gain a 360 degree view of the world, of the nature that surrounds me. Time to find my higher mind. Consciousness. Awareness. Time means nothing here. On top of the world where you can see forever. From here you can hear the echo. (You will get back what you put out. What you think and say will come back to you. Can you hear the echo?) The valley of the ego-mind does not offer the same view or resonation.
I have the time . I take the time but time does not dictate what I want to create. Live in time but not by time.
Time. What is time? What time is it? Do I need to be somewhere? Time is how we differ from animals. Time is one of the greatest restraints in all of nature. Time is not a part of nature’s way. Time is ego. Time governs human nature.
I often turn within to seek the answers I may need but I also find comfort in the fact that there may not be an answer. Silence. Meditation. Being in the jungle and on a surf board in the ocean allows me to connect with nature. I spend many days observing nature and the natural cycle of life as it unfolds before my eyes. Time has slowed down here. Some people still drive a cart pulled by an Ox. Time has no meaning. They will get there when they get there. The work will get done when it gets done. Living in time but not by time.
I Often ask myself the question, “how can I change my lifestyle to reflect a more natural way of living to resemble nature?” Transparency. Nature does not care about time. Nature goes with it’s own flow. Nature doesn’t look at it’s watch and say, “It’s time to change the season.” Nope, it just does. Nature was not made by time. Nature grows. A seed expands from within and eventually complicates itself and turns into a plant, that is a beautiful thing.
My dreams were seeds that were planted many years ago and with the proper care of love, meditation and courage they complicated themselves and expanded out of my consciousness and manifested into reality.
Time does not belong in nature. I have come to learn that time is a limitation that man brought into human nature but is not a part of nature itself. Time is ego. Time is a way to control us. Back in North America time used to govern my life. I have become accustomed to “Nica-time.” In my own good time I get things done. I go with the true natural flow inside of me. I want to expand like a seed in nature and turn my life into something beautiful. Freedom. Freedom from time. I’m reprogramming myself and becoming more and more transparent. Blossom into your full potential. You were created to grow and shine your light.
If you want to accomplish something you must first expect it from yourself. Ego is the false self. Ego is not authentic. Be authentic like nature. Strive to connect with your higher-mind.
Kundalini is the primordial cosmic power which is within us an around us always. When the inner kundalini is awake it turns us inward to our soul, the source and the divine. It is the beginning of the spiritual journey that enables us to experience the inner spiritual world, your higher mind. Turning within will lead you to the inner guru.
My inner guru is telling me to live in time. Live in the moment. Breathe. Expand. Grow. Shine and share what I have learned.

Why learn to meditate? So much of the stress and tension we normally experience comes from our mind. By training in meditation, we create an inner space and clarity that enables us to control our mind. Eventually, we will be able to stay happy all the time, even in the most difficult circumstances. The first stage of meditation is to stop distractions and make our mind clearer and more lucid. Choose a quiet place to meditate and sit in a comfortable upright position. Sit in the traditional cross-legged posture or in any other position that is comfortable. The most important thing is to keep our back straight to prevent our mind from becoming sluggish or sleepy.
