SEEDS BEYOND UNDERSTANDING
On Evolution Appearing as You
by Maja Apolonia Rodé
I
Let go of the need to understand everything.
Understanding is a microscopic way
of relating to the infinite
mystery of
life.
The most important things,
the most beautiful things,
the most cutting-edge moments of evolution
live far outside your vast yet cozy
and contained world of
words and numbers
and symbols
and
stories.
Only in the deep darkness of not knowing
can our courageous and curious
fingertips perceive the subtle,
silent seeds of what is
truly original and
evolutionary.
These
are the seeds
beyond understanding.
When you find them, place them inside you —
deep in the soil of what can never be forgotten.
And from this sacred union
of the unknowable and the unforgettable,
a new and everpresent possibility
is conceived.
II
Some people say
there is nothing new under the sun.
Some people live in a world where that may be true.
Some people don’t know the creative power
of living evolution
that creates every moment
of the seen and
unseen.
Something new
is calling itself into this world
through each of us.
This newness
does not politely ask us
to change who we know ourselves to be.
It demands
a fundamental metamorphosis of our being —
where only the perpetual purity of our
seeing
remains unchanged.
And when the renovation is finally complete,
we witness a world that has not before existed,
a cosmic play
that is not pre-scripted
by the trajectories of
all that once was
the way it
was.
III
But how do I find my way to the re-creation of myself?
It helps to know
that awareness never changes.
Let the clarity of consciousness
be your effortless ground.
Plant yourself in that
primordial
soil.
Plant yourself Here.
Do you know that is enough?
Remain in that underground
and breathe.
You are enough.
You don’t have to do anything
to earn your place
at the forefront
of evolution
appearing
as you.
Stay where YOU are.
Stay right Here.
Stay so silent and unmoving
that only God can
detect you,
and in that private
chamber of communion
crack you open like a seed.
Now God can emerge from you,
through you, and as you,
without an ounce
of trying —
in Goddess’s good time, at nature’s natural pace,
in whatever time it takes for totality
to grow something new
out of nothing but
whatever it is
that you
Truly
are.
