An engaging event, this podcast begins by bringing the listener into a state of “…just really get in harmony with yourself… to feel and really hear the silence of yourself…” before proceeding into a tour of looking at; what is occurring with life forms, the cycle of life, the primary purpose of the animal kingdom, understanding the big picture and emotions associated with cruelty to animals and clearing the way for metamorphosizing fear into love.
Hello and welcome to the Relevance of Now with William Linville. My name is Michael Connell and I encourage you to maybe, in first listening of this, to feel the words more than listening for understanding and maybe then listening again for understanding or vice versa, as the experience can be totally different when you're hearing something new that your mind's looking to get a grasp onto and it gives you an opportunity to explore what William's sharing in different ways and see what that is for you.
Speaker 2Hey.
Speaker 1William.
Speaker 2Hey, michael, how you?
Speaker 1doing buddy, fantastic, wonderful, having fun. Today we're going to talk about loving and honoring all sentient beings, and can you share what presents for you when I say that about how we can love and honor all sentient beings?
Speaker 2about how we can love and honor all sentient beings. Well, number one it's where we step back from everything and everyone. We really just feel, we connect with ourself, your higher self, your lower self and everywhere in between, the integration of the higher and lower selves, to where we can shut our eyes, take a few deep breaths, just really get in harmony with yourself, feeling, embodying awareness within the mind, the body and you. And now we look at how everything works. We look at ecological, oceanic, animal, plant, humanity and really start looking within yourself, just stopping for a moment, turning off the incessant thought forms, just taking another deep breath through the nose into the lower tummy, just releasing all the buildup, all the tension, all the preoccupations, so we can feel and really hear the silence of yourself. Now, as we open our eyes, let's really just focus on the majesticness of everything that is occurring outside yourself how even an ant, lizard, reptiles, fishies, animals, plants, how all of it is part of this beautiful cycle of life. Now, one cycle is not more important than another cycle. One cycle is not more important than another cycle. One life form is a majestic life form, one not more important than another. How all of it works in unison. There's truly no survival of the fittest, it's just harmoniousness and the harmony of all of creation all around you.
Speaker 2Then we get to a point of watching actions, reactions, larger animals devouring smaller animals, bigger frogs, reptiles consuming bugs, insects. But there's also a majesticness within that of how all of it flows together, Very purposeful, Not aggression, not testosterone, not adrenaline. It's just such a special magic of how everything flows together. The air feeds the plants, the plants emanate oxygen, the sun feeds the plants, your brain, chemistry, animal kingdom, so forth, you know all of that begets one another to create more life.
Speaker 2Now, when we go further into treatment, we step beyond survival of the fittest. We step beyond I'm bigger than you are, therefore I can overtake you. That's all mental ego jargon. And let's bring ourselves back to the beauty, the harmoniousness once again of yourself, when we have no aggression, we have no anxiety, we have no adrenaline, we just are. And as we just are we move into a whole other state of connection, communion, openness, vibrancy, clarity within yourself and through yourself, Emanating, permeating, amplifying exponentially, where we become a breath of life, without projecting our consciousness onto another, whether it be an animal, whether it be a fish, whether it be society, whether it be a human. But just right here, right now, we're right here in this beautiful, majestic, harmonious flow with and as all that is overseeing its creation.
Speaker 1William, when you talk about cruelty to animals. This question was borne out from someone who really is sensitive to animals being abused or being harmed in any way. How best can they step beyond something that really is gripping them in their body?
Speaker 2Well, this is where we step back, we take a breath. Let's go either larger or deeper with that. What is really going on with that animal? What is really going on with that human? Where are they coming from? What's going on? What is the purpose of the animal with that person? It goes two ways. So this person may be injuring a canine, feline, whatever. Well, before we rush to judgment and go into martyrdom about having to protect that animal from the person, let's just take another breath. Let's really go further into it.
Speaker 2What are either one of these dear ones playing out for each other? The animals are here primarily to assist the planetary grid system and fertilize the planet, also to clear out rodents, on and on and on. But they also primarily come in to open the hearts of the proverbial master, to get under their skin, to wake them up to passion, compassion, love, unconditional love. They come in to really accelerate a dear one's journey, preferably side by side. But we get back to survival of the fittest. And egos are egos, where the egos perceive that it's more than another, based in that dear one's own individualized journey of why the animal welcomed them in. The dear one welcomed the animal in with the ability to be in harmony but, most importantly, to open up the heart. Now, before we rush to judgment, let's just take a breath. It's kind of like a big child, the whole bully scenario, beating up on a little child. It's the same thing. It's power, aggression, control, trying to find an out of all of their internalized angst and sometimes anger or rage, and trying to find an out Once again, going back to survival of the fittest and taking their issues out on another. Now, eventually, yeah, either they're going to let it out or it's going to get internalized and their body's going to become ill. They may act it out on person, place, thing, animal, plant, whatever, and that too is going to come back full circle, because that's where the guilt comes in and it is able to find a home in the dear one's body and their consciousness. So it reminds me a lot of what the karmic latticework used to be.
Speaker 2What I do has equal and opposite reactions. Speaking more of a bigger picture, every ill will or lack of integrity scenario that you engage with, yeah, you're starting down a pathway of creating the equal and opposite reaction. Now, that's just simple physics, but it's true physics. What we put out there, it's going to come back to you. So when a tier one behaves oddly, like that, projects all this stuff towards another, they're really by default recreating the same scenario again for themselves to get hurt. And then they're hurting themselves in the process by doing it in the first place.
Speaker 2Action, reaction, emotional outbursts, explosions from odd behavioral mannerisms, but it's so interesting, right, how it goes back full circle to have the same done with them. Now we're not playing with karma. Karma goes through the soul level repeat, repeat, wash, rinse, repeat. Now we're playing with a lot larger picture of this moment. Right now, what am I creating? We could all go batty if we just walk it down the street watching how maybe the neighbors are yelling, maybe they're once look up, see someone, look down, or maybe they give them an odd look on their face or odd look in their eyes. Yeah, same thing applies.
Speaker 2But now what happens when we just wake up and we open up? What happens for ourself right now, when we just take a breath and we have no more than we have, no less than we have no got to be a this, to be a that, and all the stuff that all equals for yourself? It's all falsivity anyways, it's all ego games. So, right now, what if we just open up, open our arms up wide, walk out onto the sidewalk, the streets, the city? What if we just walk there as the open door of unconditional love that no man, being, that of the mammalian species, can shut, no situation can shut? What if we really look through our eyes into the world and emanate that beautiful light beingness that you are, with no woe is, which means no judgment, no trying to put yourself in others' paws, as if that animal feels the same way you feel or the way you would feel as an animal. And all this stuff that's projected into your perception, into the animal, of what they must be experiencing.
Speaker 2And then going into a whole nother battle of trying to now become the protector of the kingdoms. And now it's kind of interesting, it's like going to battle for peace. They really don't go together. Fighting for peace, that doesn't even make sense. But right now we're not their protectors, they're not our protectors.
Speaker 2Being that of the animal kingdom, it comes back to how best can we emanate, express such love, such light-beatingness, such passion, compassion, such passion, compassion. But also the compassion comes in when we step out of the filtrations and the projections of what another must be feeling, making these big giant assumptions rather than looking at what is. How are they acting, reacting, how are they responding? How are they feeling? I find no excuse to mistreat anyone or any animal, insect, whatever, whatever. But many they get on. This train of thought forms that I'm more than they're less than Humanity plays that out every day, just in different extremes. So what's the difference in humanity playing that out and the animals playing it out? Because I could say the animals are innocent, but I could also say just as quick, so were you. You're innocent, you're pure, you're divinity, you're light, you're radiance. The rest are just experiences, that perceivable false sense of being. But where does the woe? Is this end? Until we can turn the corner of honoring all sentient beings and their journeys? They know what they're doing.
Speaker 1The ego is the part that makes the story out of it so someone's really sensitive to the cruelty to animals and they see it and at the same time they're feeling it. How best can they shift out of that?
Speaker 2So right now, let's go back to all the Sarah McLaughlin commercials about save the animals and things like that. So let's turn on the television, let's go right to that commercial or Google it, and you know the pretty music's playing technically her music. You're looking at horses that are starving. You're looking at animals that are shaking in their cages. You know you could do the same with going to Red Lobster and looking in the lobster cage where they're all just waiting to leave the planet. Now, let's go there for a minute. But as we do, let's do what we can to check our emotions at the door. Let's go into it to see what it is. But my challenge for you is to see the light in all of it. When you look at that puppy trembling in its cage or the horses over there skin and bones per se and it goes for every animal, all kingdoms my challenge to you is to see the light within that animal, within that creature. Animals don't shake, just to shake. Yeah, they're maybe afraid, Maybe they've been knocked around a lot, but let's skip that part for a minute. Let's look right into those beautiful eyes to see that beautiful love that they're offering, that they're emanating.
Speaker 2Now, if you want to play animal rescue. Great, let's go adopt the animal, let's give it the best life possible. But my point here look at how deep those eyes go right into your heart and right into your soul, Not as a woe is. Maybe that's exactly what you had to see. To open your heart, to take your consciousness out of me, me, me, everything's about me. To open your heart to see the big picture once again. That's horses, pigs, lambs, blah, blah, blah. They all have that in-depth love. Maybe they're in pain, Maybe they're sending you such precious love. To open your heart, to not judge them, but to include them.
Speaker 1And can you share about doing that for the dear one, being abusive to an animal?
Speaker 2let's say yeah, let's look in their eyes. Let's not go off in judgment land. Let's look right into their eyes to see the light beingness in their eyes that's covered by so much pain, so many hurts. Let's see that child that was obviously mistreated. Let's see that child that was obviously mistreated, call it abused, call it ignored, whatever it may be. People just don't hurt things to hurt things. There's all this pain in which they're embodying and looking for a place to let it out. I don't condone taking anything out on anyone. It's not about anyone and anything. It's about all those battles going on and all that pain going on within yourself that leads you to those actions. So before we rush to judgment and pick a side, let's go right into that dear one who's acting out and acting out because they have so much torment within them. Let's find that innocent, pure child, that innocent, pure life force, that innocent, pure being within that body.
Speaker 1Let's assist to bring them out before we rush to judgment about their actions about their actions and I can feel how that makes me feel so much more free within me to assist, rather than if I'm in sadness and judgment, I'm in no place to assist myself, nor anyone else.
Speaker 2No, we can even take this into the world right now Religion, politics, anywhere you want. Doers don't act out just for the sake of acting out, whether it be rioters, whether it be whatever, whatever politicians I want you to really get in touch with, looking through them, to find that beautiful, innocent presence and being that is there. The rest are just. They're exhibiting and projecting all their pain from all their fear. You see, the more that we go here and we go right through them, you really start to bring that light to the forefront from within them. And if you still find yourself in judgment, let's take a breath.
Speaker 2Let's take the one that's exhibiting or acting out abusing, or corporations, monsanto, blah, blah, blah. Let's put them right in the palm of our hand. Let's light them up and send them as much love as we can, because that's going to free you from your own judgment. If you feel like another has victimized you. Great, what a great opportunity to love them. Put them in the palm of your hand, welcome in the highest vibratory level of energy and light. Let's totally infuse them, because it's assisting you to be free, but it's also assisting them in the meantime.
Embracing Presence and Clarity
Speaker 1Which is what this podcast is all about. In the relevance of now, when you're in the now and you notice that you're judging or feeling these emotions, there's this opportunity to connect back to our true self and assist yourself and the whole.
Speaker 2Oh, yes, Michael, by all means. And then you know, it's kind of funny, like the cool, you're wise. It's like, rather than playing, let's go save the animals or the whales, the rainforest, whatever, whatever. How about we go to save the person from themselves or who they perceive themselves to be? That's where we're going to make a long-term difference, Metamorphosizing fear into love.
Speaker 1Wow, awesome, wonderful. And that's how we can love and honor all sentient beings animals, plants, humans, et cetera.
Speaker 2Well, exactly Because you know, when you like, at the beginning, today, if we step back from everything, we just really step out of the middle of it as an identity, as an individual, and step out of it until we're totally just pure consciousness once again. Let's look around red lights serve a purpose. Stop sign serve a purpose. Yellow lights, green lights let's look at that, all the way down to the minuscule maggots or worms on the planet how all of it serves a purpose. Spiders, big spiders, small spiders, sharks, blah, blah, blah it all serves a purpose. And what you'll find? It becomes just so much more unanimously clearer for you. But you become lighter, you become clearer, you become freer and you even get to see a dandelion or a weed in your garden, totally different for what it is.
Speaker 1So I mean, wow, let's rise up into the majesticness, in the beauty and the brilliance, and out of judgment and harshness, Wow, thank you for that clarity, those perspectives, the wisdom and the tools to assist us in moving towards our presence, our love, our joy, our vibrance and all moments that we engage with during the day, because we're all on our different journeys and different things emotionally hijack us and at the same time, the clarity is coming back to the now so that we can best assist, so that we can best assist Absolutely and complete.
Speaker 2The only one I've struggled with out of my whole life is what is the purpose of a Yugo card? Reminds me of the Jetsons, where it just packs up and fits in your briefcase. I'm just joking, but it makes it fun.
Speaker 1Absolutely Wonderful. Well, thank you everyone for joining us. This has been the Relevance of Now Click subscribe to hear more higher level awareness and perspective on our day-to-day lives and being our true essence, namaste.
