Heimdall and Hel
May 26, 2015
This week's episode is one from the rarely heard archives all the way back to 2012! The subject is Heimdall and Hel--who surprisingly have lessons for us that COMPLIMENT one another beautifully!
One of the biggest lessons that we learned both from Heimdall and from Hel was "living in the present moment"! We cannot live in the past, whether it be one of glory or defeat. We cannot live in tomorrow because tomorrow never comes does it? All we have is the ever present now. This is a powerful lesson that shows us not only the honor and the perseverance represented by Heimdall, but the mortality that we all face represented by the ruler of the underworld. The days that we have living in this world are small in number in comparison with the lifespan even of our planet alone, forgetting about the universe itself. We cannot afford to live in the past! We cannot afford to only have our thoughts about tomorrow! The question is what we are experiencing, and what are we doing right now! As we live our lives conscious of the ever present "now" we find that tomorrow takes care of itself as we are active in the moment that we are in. We abandon despair and depression because of the fact that we understand that nothing we do can ever change the past. Even if it is not negative, but positive, we cannot live there for it is already gone. We can remember glorious deeds and should do so in order to bring the power and energy of those glorious victories into the present "now" – – in order that we can do something with it now. How much time do we waste in our lives thinking about things over which we have no control? How many times have we missed the opportunity to take charge of the things we can control? It is all about a change in thinking and in our thought processes. Looking into the mythologies and really reading them, especially when we think of the attributes of our gods and goddesses, how they show us a different way of thinking and acting. We can overcome the indoctrination of the Western world and once again become one with that energy that the universe represents and shows unto us at every sunrise and every sunset. The choice as always is ours and ours alone. What do we do with the time we have been given? Why do we want to be remembered by our descendants? Not just to be a stodgy story told by a fireside! We want to be an inspiration to our descendants to take what victories we gain in our lives so that they will move forward and have victories in their lives! Hopefully that they will even out do us.
Until next time...
