I played with legos yesterday with my daughter. I took about ½ hour to construct this building consisting of 5 separate towers. After I finished it, I admired this long and hard. Then I took each and every piece apart, like the Buddhist ceremony of sweeping away the sand mandelas. It was amazing at all the energy literally that came off of the pieces as I did so. There was such a beautiful release of actual energy that I felt as I did so. I never thought something as ordinary as Legos could have energy/spiritual aspects to them.
I learned that anything that you invest energy into takes on a life of it's own. This is just the tip of what I hope to be my lessons on energy. I also now understand reincarnation more than ever. I understand the need to let go of our egos, of our lives, of the objects of our lives, no matter how pretty or how much we may love them. It is something I will be doing more and more in my life. The need to release and let go, no matter how beautiful it may be, when it's time is finished, purpose done, the energy needs to be dispersed. This part of being Pagan it is a phenomenal part of our religion and a needed part of our existence, no matter how much we want to grasp. It is thoughts like these of my impermanence that give me comfort now a days. I am learning to make peace with my old nemesis of death. When you let go of one form/object/etc. It allows you to shape shift to inumerable other possibilities.




This is so true.
