Sincerity
“Sincerity is like a raindrop, you can drop it from thousands of feet up in the sky, it can hit the top of the highest mountain but it will find its way back to the ocean. Sincerity finds the deep within yourself, finds the deep within the other. In being sincere that drop begins to gather power and it begins to take us home instantly.”

Reflections From Egypt 2010
Bernie reflects on entering into the pyramid......
 I likened the journey entering into the pyramid as that small empty space one has to enter within themselves. A mind doesn't want to go there but the heart knows there is more in that tiny space than we can know through the mind. The group travelled up the tiny shaft that led up to the innermost chamber. Not everyone was able to make it as fear and doubt overcame them. Those that did had different experiences but most spoke of the need to not listen to the fears of the mind as they climbed up deeper and deeper into the heart of the pyramid. This is a metaphor that must be lived in the heart of oneself - climbing into the innermost chamber where the you you believed in does not exist but empty space of the ground of one’s own being. Many left sight of the Great Pyramid changed in some way and more prepared to continue with the next part of the journey.

Reflections on the Egypt Nile Cruise
On the top deck of our boat the Hamees, the gentle breeze on your face as the boat slipped down the Nile; the sun shining, warming the morning; the farmer on the lush green bank of the Nile tending to his donkeys; the waiters in their black and white uniforms serving coffee; the groups of people on the sundeck catching the rays and gazing out at the craggy sandy hills and mountain tops in the distance – and our group, over 25 of us, deeply immersed in sharing The Form, catching the curiosity of the other travelers on the boat and all the boats passing by. This was our first morning sailing, making our way down to Aswan from Luxor.
 We had already been to The Valley of The Kings where the incredible construction and the beautiful art and colours in the tombs we saw were mirroring frequencies inside of our own knowingness, depictions on one of the tombs where a couple of movements of The Form were symbolised and the timeless reality of the Self revealed inside our own hearts.
The journey down the Nile reflected the journey every soul takes into the world, through the gathering of experience. We were constantly on the move, either up at 3.00am to travel three hours across the desert or up at 6.00am most mornings, temples, boats, coaches, bazaars, breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea time, constant activity – and the potential to lose yourself in the sights, sounds and array of Egyptian tourist trail distraction. The throng of sellers, peddling their wares of shawls, scarves and jewelry, all vibeing for your attention and for the game of bartering. Every stop off the boat along the Nile had the same wares, the same eager sellers, some so eager they actually came out on small rowing boats to where the boats were waiting to go through the Nile lock. They didn’t take no for an answer as they stuffed a shawl into a plastic bag, threw it up over 5 or 6 decks to the top deck and started bargaining.
The journey back up the Nile, the incredible temples we visited, one that reflected the masculine principal, another the feminine principal…Their tangible frequencies of being and the taste of reality behind their image and structure, just opened up places in the individuals in deep recognition of their own very nature and the play of masculine and feminine attraction in their own lives.
 This tour was like no other held by Bernie and the turning point came when the boat turned round to make its way back up the Nile to Luxor. At this point a move away from the many distractions experienced on the way down came in. It was clearly seen and began to unveil a new reality as we ventured back from whence we came. A beautiful reflection and mirror for all. The step up for this woman was clear and that was – I am the creative power of the universe; I am an autonomous co-creative being – or I am choosing to be plain mediocre. Finding the edge inside and seeing that the manifestation of the knowingness inside is asking for full participation, beyond the known of my seeming ability or even possibility. I am directing and creating this life, what is experienced and how it is experienced, what do I choose?
