I thought it would be help\u00adful to have the tran\u00adscript from my radio show. If you want to lis\u00adten the pod\u00adcast, here is the link to that: Pod\u00adcast on the Full Moon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Today we will con\u00adsid\u00ader the mean\u00ading of the Full Moon in Scor\u00adpio which is also known as the Bud\u00addha Full Moon<\/em>. The rea\u00adson for this name comes from the sto\u00adry of the Bud\u00addha, who was said to have been born in the month of Tau\u00adrus at the Full Moon of Scor\u00adpio, and who after much striv\u00ading achieved enlight\u00aden\u00adment or Cos\u00admic Con\u00adscious\u00adness at anoth\u00ader Full Moon in Scor\u00adpio, and final\u00adly, when his work was done, laid aside his phys\u00adi\u00adcal vehi\u00adcle at yet anoth\u00ader Full Moon in Scor\u00adpio. The essence of these Teach\u00adings of the Bud\u00addha is won\u00adder\u00adful\u00adly illus\u00adtrat\u00aded for us in this dynam\u00adic inte\u00adgral rela\u00adtion\u00adship between the Sun in Tau\u00adrus and the Moon in Scorpio.<\/p>\n

The Lunar Cycle<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The cycle of the Sun and Moon, (from New Moon, to Wax\u00ading Square, to Full Moon, to Wan\u00ading Square, to the next New Moon), forms the arche\u00adtyp\u00adal pat\u00adtern of all the plan\u00ade\u00adtary cycles we expe\u00adri\u00adence here on Earth. Through reflec\u00adtion and cor\u00adre\u00adspond\u00ading appli\u00adca\u00adtion, we can obtain a deep\u00ader under\u00adstand\u00ading about our jour\u00adney offered by this lan\u00adguage of the stars. I have often called these plan\u00ade\u00adtary cycles \u201ca dance of the plan\u00adets\u201d, and it is like the weav\u00ading of mean\u00ading\u00adful\u00adness offered by the spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal hier\u00adar\u00adchies of our broth\u00aders and sis\u00adters, the beau\u00adti\u00adful plan\u00ade\u00adtary hier\u00adar\u00adchy that is our home among the stars.<\/p>\n

The Twelve Signs of the Zodi\u00adac hold the arche\u00adtyp\u00adal myths and mean\u00adings to guide our jour\u00adney. The reflec\u00adtive com\u00adpar\u00adi\u00adson of signs that are oppo\u00adsite to one anoth\u00ader, helps to inform and illu\u00admi\u00adnate the mean\u00adings of them both. Life or Spir\u00adit is formed by this jour\u00adney through the Signs, each res\u00adonat\u00ading with its own mes\u00adsages, but these indi\u00advid\u00adual mean\u00adings can only be tru\u00adly under\u00adstood by con\u00adsid\u00ader\u00ading each one in their rela\u00adtion\u00adship with its oppo\u00adsite, and then ulti\u00admate\u00adly with every oth\u00ader sign too. Each Sign is formed and informed by the oth\u00ader, as we do much the same in our rela\u00adtion\u00adships with one anoth\u00ader here on Earth too. Think of it this way, almost all your thoughts, sen\u00adsi\u00adbil\u00adi\u00adties, tastes and truths that you hold as your own, they were brought to you, woven into you, through the intri\u00adcate web of life that you have shared with all with whom you trav\u00adel now, and by the count\u00adless hosts who came this way before us in our col\u00adlec\u00adtive jour\u00adney in Spirit.<\/p>\n

Taurus\/Scorpio<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are now in the time of Tau\u00adrus, and it is the most earthy or mate\u00adri\u00adal\u00adiz\u00ading moment in the Zodi\u00adac. This is the time that you rel\u00adish, cel\u00ade\u00adbrate and enjoy your own phys\u00adi\u00adcal expe\u00adri\u00adences, which for you is most cer\u00adtain\u00adly being in your human body. But the Full Moon of Scor\u00adpio posits the oth\u00ader side of this, noth\u00ading in this world is per\u00adma\u00adnent. All things are born, live and pass on. The Ques\u00adtion of the Taurus\/Scorpio is: How do you do this, how do you cope with the joys of being alive and the ever-present threat that it all will end some\u00adday? This ques\u00adtion, tru\u00adly, is the source of all Reli\u00adgions, Phi\u00adlos\u00ado\u00adphy and Sci\u00adence. We know that we are alive; and we know that we are going to die.<\/p>\n

But you should know, that you are rel\u00ada\u00adtive\u00adly Immor\u00adtal, as you are at your core a unique mon\u00adad of Spir\u00adit-Life-Con\u00adscious\u00adness. This inner\u00admost of you is what you would call the Self, which is the aware\u00adness that per\u00advades all of Cre\u00adation, and this is in fact at the core of one and All. For all of Cre\u00adation, from atoms, through min\u00ader\u00adals, onto plants, ani\u00admals, humans and beyond, all of Cre\u00adation is alive and conscious.<\/p>\n

This Self or Atman is your spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal self who is direct\u00ading, guid\u00ading and inspir\u00ading and lift\u00ading your low\u00ader vehi\u00adcles upward, as you move from World to World, and through Form after Form, and into each Life after Life. In all these forms you are a com\u00adpos\u00adite, formed into bod\u00adies of var\u00adi\u00adous degrees of sub\u00adstance. You descend and extend down from the most sub\u00adlime realms into the low\u00ader men\u00adtal realms, down into the emo\u00adtion\u00adal realms and final\u00adly arrive in your phys\u00adi\u00adcal form that you enjoy so much now, the human body.<\/p>\n

As you move into these realms of the mate\u00adr\u00adi\u00adal, you are here quite sim\u00adply to learn to be a bet\u00adter human, to be a com\u00adplete human, to mas\u00adter your\u00adself and your pow\u00aders of cre\u00adation. But you will, time and time again, become too enam\u00adored by and attached to some par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar expe\u00adri\u00adence, you will wish to pro\u00adlong and main\u00adtain some thing. And because this is so, you will expe\u00adri\u00adence pain.<\/p>\n

For this is the tick\u00adet you punched in com\u00ading to Earth, you walk in mor\u00adtal forms and upon a mor\u00adtal world. This is the deal on Earth, if you expe\u00adri\u00adence joy you will also have pain, if you find love you will also expe\u00adri\u00adence loss, for this is the price of being an immor\u00adtal in a mor\u00adtal world. How can you live with this, know\u00ading and feel\u00ading so much pain?<\/p>\n

Remem\u00adber, there is one imper\u00ada\u00adtive dri\u00adving all of this, an unceas\u00ading force aris\u00ading from with\u00adin you, and that one irre\u00adsistible light is Spir\u00adit whose only dri\u00adve is to be and to become. Spir\u00adit is Growth; Spir\u00adit is Life and there\u00adfore Change. You (and every part of Cre\u00adation) are this Spir\u00adit which equals Life ever becom\u00ading some\u00adthing more. That is why the great injunc\u00adtion in all spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal dis\u00adci\u00adplines is that you are nev\u00ader done, that you must always \u201cwalk on\u201d. This means that in each of your lives you must con\u00adtin\u00adu\u00adous\u00adly strive to \u201clet go and grow\u201d. This is the fun\u00adda\u00admen\u00adtal teach\u00ading that the Bud\u00addha offers, and this is one of the core prin\u00adci\u00adples of the Ancient Teach\u00adings, which are found in all cul\u00adtures and exists at that liv\u00ading heart of all reli\u00adgion, phi\u00adlos\u00ado\u00adphy and science.<\/p>\n

There is noth\u00ading per\u00adma\u00adnent ulti\u00admate\u00adly, there is noth\u00ading per\u00adma\u00adnent or \u201clast\u00ading\u201d in these mate\u00adr\u00adi\u00adal realms or high\u00ader realms because they are all com\u00adpos\u00adites, held togeth\u00ader by the Intel\u00adli\u00adgence, Love and Will that form the heart of every mote and speck of this Uni\u00adverse. It is that Spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal Core or Essence which moves from World to World, through Life after Life. All these vehi\u00adcles or bod\u00adies must be free to evolve into new forms, but so do their Spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal Cen\u00adters who like\u00adwise grow into an ever-greater splen\u00addor. Both the Spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal Heart and the Mate\u00adr\u00adi\u00adal Body will grow and become and be re-formed again and again into ever more mean\u00ading\u00adful forms of spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal self-realization.<\/p>\n

This is what you need to con\u00adsid\u00ader today at the Full Moon in the time of Tau\u00adrus, the Scor\u00adpio Full Moon, and though I am fond of say\u00ading, \u201cyou are an Immor\u00adtal in a mor\u00adtal frame\u201d, the truth is that noth\u00ading is ulti\u00admate\u00adly Immor\u00adtal, for that would mean that even the most sub\u00adlime part of you was fin\u00adished, not capa\u00adble of growth and change. And that is just not so. For this cos\u00admic cycle, your inner\u00admost, most Sub\u00adlime Self is \u201crel\u00ada\u00adtive\u00adly\u201d Immor\u00adtal, and from life to life is the foun\u00adtain-source of Inspi\u00adra\u00adtion and Guid\u00adance as you seek to free your\u00adself from your sleep, from your uncon\u00adscious, as you steadi\u00adly move towards becom\u00ading an \u201cAwak\u00adened One\u201d. Quite sim\u00adply, you are on the path of becom\u00ading ful\u00adly human. You are on the same path as the Buddha.<\/p>\n

You are part of a hier\u00adar\u00adchy of Spir\u00adit-Life-Con\u00adscious\u00adness, and though you are in the Human King\u00addom now, one day you will face the same choice that all the \u201cgreat ones\u201d have faced. Once you are tru\u00adly free, what is known as a Jivan\u00admuk\u00adta, or freed mon\u00adad, you will have the great choice of con\u00adtin\u00adu\u00ading beyond this human king\u00addom into more sub\u00adlime spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal realms, OR<\/span>, you may choose to turn and extend your love and care for those who still strug\u00adgle behind you. We are told that most who have crossed this thresh\u00adold of lib\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion have made their lov\u00ading choice to remain and help those who come after. They are known as the Watch\u00aders, the sav\u00adiors and saints who hold open the door of lib\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion for you. They send you lov\u00ading thoughts and inspi\u00adra\u00adtions to lift your\u00adself and one anoth\u00ader towards that sub\u00adlime state of beau\u00adty, grace and uncon\u00addi\u00adtion\u00adal love that is your destiny.<\/p>\n

What does this great teach\u00ading of the Bud\u00addha mean for you? It is said that the Buddha\u2019s last words were this: \u201cBroth\u00aders, all things that are, are com\u00adpos\u00adite, are com\u00adpounds, built of oth\u00ader ele\u00adments. Find your way to Truth\u201d. It is said that many in the west have mis\u00adin\u00adter\u00adpret\u00aded this to mean, \u201cYou should seek out your own sal\u00adva\u00adtion\u201d. Noth\u00ading could be fur\u00adther from the truth. What the Bud\u00addha was say\u00ading is that the way to spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal peace and hap\u00adpi\u00adness is to be present, to be total\u00adly here in the Cos\u00admic Dance of Life. You will do this for your\u00adself, and you will do this for one anoth\u00ader too.<\/p>\n

For you and them, and every\u00adthing in this Uni\u00adverse is \u201cThat\u201d, it is nei\u00adther Self or non-Self, it is death\u00adless because it is Eter\u00adni\u00adty. It is THAT<\/span>. You are That<\/em>, I am That<\/em>. It has no name, it is nei\u00adther Spir\u00adit or non-Spir\u00adit. It is both. Beyond nam\u00ading, beyond know\u00ading, it is and is not, it is the inef\u00adfa\u00adble That<\/em>. The great illu\u00adsion is that you are sep\u00ada\u00adrate; the Great Truth is that we are one with one anoth\u00ader, insep\u00ada\u00adra\u00adble from one anoth\u00ader in this Ocean of Spir\u00adit and Love. Behind and through all the realms from the most phys\u00adi\u00adcal to the most tran\u00adscen\u00addent, there is That<\/em>.<\/p>\n

You should cel\u00ade\u00adbrate being here ful\u00adly and with great appre\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion for the won\u00adder of this beau\u00adti\u00adful world we call Earth. You should watch the beau\u00adty of the dawn unfold\u00ading before your eyes but know that it will end, and you must let it go. So, lat\u00ader that day, choose to turn, and watch the Sun\u00adset and know that it is good too. Life, Spir\u00adit and Beau\u00adty are forged and reborn in motion, in liv\u00ading. Know that you may meet a won\u00adder\u00adful per\u00adson by chance one after\u00adnoon, but then they may fly back home and that was it, just a few hours of bliss; or you are with your true love for many, many years, but final\u00adly, it is time to let them go as the end for now is here.<\/p>\n

But you should also know, that you are not say\u00ading \u201cgood\u00adbye\u201d but tru\u00adly just \u201cfare thee well\u201d, for you and I will be togeth\u00ader again some\u00adday soon, that is cer\u00adtain\u00adly true. What has brought you to one anoth\u00ader will hold you to one anoth\u00ader in life after life for as long as the stars shine in the heav\u00adens above. Yes, the loss is real, it is quite right to mourn and cry and grieve the loss for now. But this is just for now, like all things this is not per\u00adma\u00adnent either, for Love binds us all to one anoth\u00ader, and we all held, pro\u00adtect\u00aded and cher\u00adished by the love of the One and our love for one another.<\/p>\n

Beau\u00adty, Love, Val\u00adue are only present \u201cin Life which is Spir\u00adit, in Spir\u00adit which is life\u201d. All of Cre\u00adation is mov\u00ading, through count\u00adless forms and per\u00admu\u00adta\u00adtions, being some\u00adthing, let\u00adting go and becom\u00ading some\u00adthing so much more. You should do your utmost to pre\u00adserve, pro\u00adtect and extend the worth and beau\u00adty and love in this world. But when it is time for mat\u00adters to move on we must accept this and \u201cLet it go\u2026and Grow\u201d.<\/p>\n

You are to move through these tem\u00adpo\u00adral realms with ever greater Intel\u00adli\u00adgence, Love and Will. You must hold; and you must let go. You breathe in; you breathe out. You learn to love and cher\u00adish the forms in which you abide, to love and pro\u00adtect your\u00adselves and your beau\u00adti\u00adful world too\u2026but you are here to grow, so you must also release these won\u00addrous forms and move into ever more sub\u00adlime realms, for\u00adev\u00ader and ever.<\/p>\n

This is the mes\u00adsage of the Full Moon in the time of Tau\u00adrus. It is about the Dance of Life, the path of Lib\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion that we are all walk\u00ading and our even\u00adtu\u00adal des\u00adtiny, which is to join those who have reached beyond the cycles of death and rebirth and are now free. The Lord Bud\u00addha, like all teach\u00aders, came not to start a reli\u00adgion, he came to remind you who and what you are, he came to show you the way to become ful\u00adly human. No mat\u00adter what, you and I are on the path, and the Lords of Com\u00adpas\u00adsion are wait\u00ading for us all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
