The Ease of life

Foreword A path came into clarity upon meeting both Chiropractic and Taichi. They spoke about a wisdom within our body, a wisdom that could maintain the health and flexibility of our body. And in looking within my body, I found this wisdom, a wisdom that was leading me on through life. Leading me gradually through the physical body and further into the soft body. And as maturity grew, all emotions and thoughts were seen, and the universe unraveled. Patiently the subtleties of life were revealed and our maturity as human beings clarified. As life started to lead me on, the rules of man gradually fell away, and the flow of life emerged. And as life gradually showed its face, I met a patient compassion leading me onwards through the ups and downs of life, allowing me to drinking the nectar of life. And through life, words of clarity and wisdom appeared, sometimes from others and sometimes from inside, but always from life itself. These words were chewed and integrated bringing about a greater communication with life. And as a result of this process these words came about to bring clarity to life and to challenge your past and your future. They only ask of you that you keep an open heart, as they show you the changes yet to come. And as thus I give these words to you, a tribute to life and a tribute to you. Henrik Flørenes, Mai 2011 Introduction Our life unfolds And we are struck by the simplicity of life Of how it happens Of how it seems to happen all by itself There seems to be this wisdom This ease of living This graceful path It is one gradually revealed to us Hints given at every corner And gradually We see the wisdom and joy of this unfolding In our choice this easeful path unravels Clearer and clearer Only because we were ready Ready to live courageously Ready to live fearlessly Ready to enjoy all Ready to allow all And so the ease of life unfolds Because it can A different walk of life Seeing the old Seeing the new Seeing the lost And seeing the blue With clarity at hand A shift occurs And from out of nowhere You see your path Not tainted by any reflection Unfolding upon this world As a glazier erupting from the core A majestic sight With ease and grace Seemingly seen before But no, never walked before Every path of life is a unique expression When seen with clarity Only wisdom unfolding Being a human Entering this world Seeing this potential This potential of being a human This creative force This wisdom appearance From the first moment free to investigate All aspects of life One by one the barriers of life are broken Seeing, feeling, breaking, passing through and transforming Into something new Into the first step of a new walk of life An artistic expression At scratch In seeing the past We see the seemingly previous way of life Leading us to this moment As a clean slate With a fresh start As only this moment can give Everything of the past is no longer us But from it grows something new In seeing the choices of the past This manure is seen This fertile ground And from it A flower erupts Beginning now Having played out one path of life Clarity starts revealing itself Revealing the dogmas Revealing the complications Revealing the do's and don`ts Revealing the way of war Revealing the way of struggling And from amidst it all Hints of simplicity are revealed Appearing as from a blind spot Seemingly out of reach But close enough for smelling All we can do, is to want it Hoping it will happen Not knowing how Our trust lies in the unknown The place of all creating Seeing this moment Allowing this moment to be We start seeing this moment clearer And through this clarity We start seeing the tools at hand We start seeing the action unfolding And through this unfolding We see ourselves And seeing ourselves We see our next step And thus we can let it unfold Gracefully and naturally Letting the beauty of it rise Supporting our step gracefully and lovingly The Body perspective As we dive inn We meet the obvious And what more obvious than our body Always there Always carrying us But there is more Everything is not as is seems This body reveals different paths This body works both with or without us And in our not knowing It has been without us, so far Seeing the body as from outside, judging it A seemingly fragile and weird body Sometimes working Sometimes not But as a moment of clarity arises Our body talks, back to us Not in so many words But as a strange sensation Something hidden Something soft And it dawns on us There seems to be something more to our body Something more than the naked eye reveals But not being around to listen The seeing did not happen The clarity did not appear Until now
