Universal Mother Mary tell us that one of the most important roles that humans on earth take on is that of being a vessel that experiences beauty. What an incredibly delicious role. At times we may forget about the beauty all around us, but I know that there are other times, those moments that transcended all others when something beautiful caught your eye and the moment etched itself in your memory, perhaps for an eternity.
Thomas Merton, perhaps the most famous Trappist monk that has ever lived spent his life observing beauty. He felt that it really mattered that he master the art of attending to beauty. Merton was a master photographer ( he called his camera the "Zen Camera"!) and also painted spontaneous black and white calligraphy that were quite Zen in their expression.
Last February Universal Mother Mary gifted us with a flower essence combination that she wanted us to call BE HOLD BEAUTY. I am not sure that I fully appreciated all that BE HOLD BEAUTY had to offer at the time, but in my readings and contemplation I have grown to really love this essence. You can go to www.maryessences.com to read the entire description of this amazing essence but here are some excerpts: Here is the affirmation for BE HOLD BEAUTY:
"I maintain beauty for planet Earth by fully experiencing the beauty all around me in every moment." "I am Mary. Blessed are those that walk the Earth and feel the beauty of the Earth beneath their feet and the sun kisses, the moon kisses and the star kisses upon their skin. Blessed are those that hear the beauty of the bird song, the breath of the wind and the beat of a heart. Blessed are those that inhale the fragrance of the pine forests or the flowers of a meadow. Blessed are those that taste crystal waters and their mother's milk. And blessed are those that truly see the kaleidoscopic array of an infinite number of images of beauty, recorded with both the physical and inner eyes. Whirl and dance within your senses to the endless variety of forms of beauty on Blessed Earth, within the celebration of the body you call human. "Be" "Hold." In other words, "BE" the one that "HOLDS" the vibration of beauty for the planet. Is this understood? You, my dear ONES, you all that call yourselves human, you "HOLD" the key to how life on Earth can "BE" experienced. As you walk the Earth all that is necessary is for you to "be" and "hold" with your conscious intent your complete experience of beauty. NOW. In this moment see yourself as beauty. You are beauty full. The amount of radiance coming from you is a direct reflection of the amount of beauty you "hold." Beholden in beauty, bound in gratitude. Holding beauty you are beholden in beauty."
