I developed this mantra during my EST years from 1982 on... I didn’t know what it was or that it was a mantra... My koan... I ended up visiting a Zen center in 1986 and that’s when I figured out what I was doing. I guess growing up with my dad, being a change master, moving over 60 times in my life, it was just part of who I am....

I kept saying over the last 20 years...."it’s not what's so, it's so what". Werner’s aphorism gave me these words to chant, to repeat everyday, for the peacefulness of a present mind in all my moments. Every time I worried, it made me peaceful. Every time I had to adjust to another move, it gave me strength to be the new kid on the block again. Every time I was alone, it made me have strength in being alone, the understanding that we are always alone, but we choose to be with other people anyways because it’s all about showing up. All this gave me understand in action without the constraints the past or my beliefs had on my greatest possible futures.
“The truth believed is a lie”, “but if you experience it” (Werner said), that was the truth, I just can't hold onto the perception of truth in my brain, so I must run with my assumptions for now.
My listening & speaking is always my spirit (me), but my actions are my pattern machine, so I must use my speaking in thoughts and words to correct that illusion that my pattern machine is me, the spirit of possibility.
Like my thoughts, my integrity is another thought, I choose to recreate it in the world every moment and I speak a mantra of a perspective of choice rather then decision
I am unconditional love, thank you for listening.
God recreates the world infinitely every moment of time forever and ever, there never was a past or future, only forever now’s, BE DO Have it all now, it’s your choice. My quote is “So choose again, choices don’t run out in life, only your decisions make you run out of choices.”

Re: My mantra for creating possibility

**"it’s not what's so, it's so what"**
What a difference What's So and So What feel like. One boxes it in and needs to be guarded the other lets go, opens up and allows...'So What' wonderful thing will next unfold... :0) -

Re: My mantra for creating possibility
Tue, June 16, 2009 - 9:45 AMIt’s the power of nothingness...its counter intuitive, its doesn’t make any sense.
It’s not thinking your cup is half full; its knowing there is no cup or spoon, and no past or future.
It’s the freedom to create anything and everything, or to just be.
"To make sure a person doesn't find out who he is, convince him that he can't really make anything disappear. All that’s left then is to resist, solve, fix, help or change things. That's like trying to make something out of something." Werner
Tabula Rasa, blank slate, clear your canvas to have access to the full landscape of possibility!
