Aligning yourself to Love

Extract from 'Blue Truth' by D. Deida.

Feel the beating of your heart now. Relax your body and soften your breath so you can feel your deep heart beating and pulsing outward to your hands and feet and head. Imagine opening your chest so your heart was exposed to the world without protection, glistening, alive, tender. Imagine offering your beating heart as a gift to all, like offering a vibrant, delicate flower to your lover.
Opening your heart to all, feel your offering as love. What does love feel like? How does love show? As you feel your beating heart and open outward to all, what would a videotape of your reveal?
When you consistently open as love, you begin to look like love. Your face shines. Your eyes sparkle. Your body moves with grace, opening as the tide of love swelling from your deep heart to all, through the day, at work, during sex. Your voice carries the fullness of love rather than the stress of genital need or the exasperation of emotional betrayal. Since every part of your takes on the characteristic of what you feel, if you feel as love you show as love.
You can attend only to your worried thoughts and troubled emotions, and therefore appear as a twisted and fearful character. Or even when you are worried or troubled, you can feel open as an offering of love.
Through this practice of feeling open, history evaporates as it occurs.
Openness prevails.
Love appears as you.

With Boundless Love
