THE DANCE OF DIVINE ORDER
Relationships in the Oneness
‘The Dance of Divine Order’ is about personal relationships. Margaret Kean wrote 18 statements, starting with ‘Love is its Leader’ to describe what it means to be in relationship with the effortless flow of the ‘Dance of Divine Order’. These 18 statements describe Margaret’s understanding of the nature of spiritual relationships in ‘The Oneness’, in unity consciousness.
Each statement is written in a way that encourages ‘whole-brain’ thinking. In other words, the statements are not written in a typically linear way. They are written in an unusual way in order to stimulate the brain to think beyond its usual way of processing information, and to re-set perceptions about relationships. For example, the first statement is, ‘LOVE IS ITS LEADER’. When that statement is written in a regular way it would be written like this: ‘The Leader of the Dance of Divine Order is Love’. The way Margaret has written it has the effect of considering the words from a different perspective. This facilitates an expansion of the brain as it stretches to create new neural pathways of understanding. The 18 statements are how Margaret expressed her divinely inspired concept of how it is to be ‘in sacred relationships’ in the Oneness, in the Dance of Divine Order.
These statements also have a special relationship to the Natural Process map sequence. For example, the second statement, ‘BEING AT PEACE WITH THAT LEADER IS ITS RHYTHM’. If you refer to the ‘Natural Process Map’, you can find a heading called ‘Peace’. The heading ‘Peace’ is located between the heading ‘Love’ and the heading, ‘Knowing’. I will explain in more detail by adding more and more content here, as time allows. I would like to explain the relationship of the ‘Dance of Divine Order’ to the ‘Natural Process’, as well as share information that Margaret taught in a workshop titled, ‘Everything you need to know about sex and death’. Margaret had a great sense of humour, and her workshop on sex and death was so well attended that very soon it was standing room only!
For now, I have included below three short audios that I hope help decipher and unlock the treasures hidden in the words. You will likely get your own insights, about the statements and about relationships, as you read and reflect on each one. There is a lot to ponder on. Enjoy!
This first audio covers the first six statements. The second audio covers the next six statements, and the third audio covers the remaining six statements. You can follow along with the audio by reading the statements shown below.
The Dance of Divine Order - by Margaret Kean
“ LOVE IS ITS LEADER
(Love is the Leader of the Dance of Divine Order.)
BEING AT PEACE WITH THAT LEADER IS ITS RHYTHM
(Being at Peace with Love (including being at Peace with the Love we give
and the Love we receive) is the rhythm of the Dance)
THE LEADER AND THE RHTHYM OFFER A TRUTH OF DIRECTION
(Love and being at Peace with Love offer a true direction. Our heart knows the direction.)
THIS DIRECTION ALWAYS INCLUDES UNKNOWNS THAT BRIDGE PRE-PERCEIVED PERCEPTIONS (OUR PAST AND/OR PRESENT REALITIES) WITH UNLIMITED CHOICES OF WHAT BECOMES OUR FUTURE REALITY-TRUTHS
(Future direction options and choices always include unknowns that go beyond our current perceptions of reality.)
AT THIS POINT ONE BEGINS A SURRENDERING TO CHANGE
(Passing over the ‘Bridge of Trust’ comes with surrendering to the truth of your knowing. The ‘Bridge of Trust’ leads to Surrender and Acceptance. Surrendering, letting go of the past, accepting the unknowns of the future, surrendering to change, stepping forward to greater Light and Love.)
TO THE DEGREE ONE ACCEPTS, OUR REALITY THEN BECOMES
(When one accepts a change in perception/perspective/direction, the new reality and perception of truth of the reality results in a ‘Purification’, a re-formatting of the components and perceptions of the old, and the creation of a new perception. The new perception offers a healing, a purification, a transformation.
This reality then becomes a new truth.)
IN ORDER FOR ONE TO “LIVE” THIS REALITY IN THE FUTURE, PHYSICAL MATTER, MENTAL/EMOTIONAL PATTERNS, AND EVEN LOGIC MUST BECOME FLEXIBLE TO REACH ACTIVE STABILIZED FUTURE REALITY TRUTH
(It is important to nourish flexibility in our perceptions, mental and emotional patterns, and logic, in order to achieve future truths of changed perception of reality.)
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP ALL PAST-ESTABLISHED SURVIVAL MODES
(Surrender, Acceptance, Purification)
RECOGNIZING THE EXCELLENCE HIDDEN UNDERNEATH ONE’S DANCE COSTUMES AND THE DANCE COSTUMES OF OTHERS THEN OPENS THE PALACE GATES TO SAMENESS
(Me to We. When we recognize the perfection of our Spirit Self, we can recognize the perfection of every other person’s individual Spirit Self. This brings forward recognition of Sameness, of being the same Spirit.)
ONE ONLY NEED RECOGNIZE SAMENESS TO KNOW ONE IS FINALLY HOME
(Recognition of Perfection of I and We; recognition of the things that unite us, that are the same in us, brings us home to unity consciousness. When we recognize a deep connection of Sameness with another person, there is a feeling of comfort, and of being home.)
OTHERS ALWAYS WELCOME ONE WHO HAS COME HOME IN LIKENESS INSTEAD OF DIFFERENCES
(Me to We. Recognizing and affirming our ‘sameness’ with each other. Recognizing and affirming the things that connect us instead of our differences. It is a ‘welcome home’ feeling when likeness is affirmed instead of differences.)
TO KNOW LIKENESS IN THE INNERMOST DEPTHS IS TO KNOW EXCELLENCE AND DELIGHTFULNESS OF MASTERS AND OF SELF
(Recognizing the deep inter-connectivity that we share as human beings, and feeling the depth of that Love connection brings delight, joy, and excellence of the essences of Great Teachers, and of Self.)
IN OTHER WORDS, TO IDENTIFY SO STRONGLY IN SAMENESS,
THE MASTER AND SELF BECOME ONE
(In unity consciousness, we are all the same, master and self are the same in the ‘Oneness’.
In ‘Oneness’, there is only ‘Oneness’.)
ONENESS DANCES IN DIVINE ORDER CONSCIOUSLY
(There is purpose, mission, and direction out of the ‘Oneness’ that expresses itself as the ‘Dance of Divine Order’.)
BEING CLEAR AND CONFIDENT IN ONE’S EXPRESSION OF ONENESS IS ALWAYS SIMPLE AND NATURAL BECAUSE IT IS ALL-INCLUSIVE OF THE MODEL ESSENCE OF NON-JUDGMENTAL DIRECTORS
(An individual’s expression of Oneness is simple and natural because it is all-inclusive and non-judgmental.)
IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHEN TO SWITCH DANCE PARTNERS
AND WITH WHOM ONE WILL THEN DANCE
(Part of participating in the ‘Dance of Divine Order’ is recognizing when to dance with whom.)
ONE IS REMINDED OF THE LOCATION OF ONE’S DANCE
BY THE EFFORTLESS PRESENCE OF COMFORT WITHIN SELF
(We can recognize when we are in the right place at the right time with the right person when there is an effortlessness of being. There is a sense of peace and comfort, even joy.)
DIVINE ORDER IS EASY, EFFICIENT, AND REQUIRES LITTLE IF ANY MAINTENANCE
(Relationships in the Oneness require little if any maintenance; they are easy and efficient.
There is an effortlessness to the dance.)”
The Dance of Divine Order was written and shared by Margaret Fields Kean circa 1997 at the ‘Visions of Tomorrow’ conference, Geneseo, NY, USA.
The words in brackets are written by Sandra McKay Stewart to add context and clarification related to the sequence of ‘The Natural Process’ and its relationship to ‘The Dance of Divine Order’.
Thank you again to Margaret Kean for her beautiful way of teaching and sharing her knowledge and wisdom. Thank you, Margaret, for the invitation and encouragement that you gave me to share your teachings.
