A New Journey

God said:

Today is a conjunction of your life. Today is where your whole life is pinned together off to one side. All the corners of your life are gathered together the way the hem of a fancy ball gown might be pinned with flowers. The past is gathered, pulled to one side, and now there is a whole new start to today, you, and your life.

The past is gathered together in one piece so it is out of the way. You don’t have to step around it nor do you have to start where you left off. You can start anywhere. The past is not about you unless you insist it is. This is a new slate before you now. No matter what labels have been stuck to you, today you have a new start. Today is a whole new day. In this sense, you can undo the past. You can make today anything you want, for the truth is, whatever build-up from the past you have accrued, you can drop it now.

Today you have a new start, and I suggest you start anew. Whatever thoughts you have had about yourself, start over. A new beginning. No matter how wonderful the credits of the past may have been, today you are starting a new journey to the New World of Space and Time.

The Old Book has closed, and today a New Page is open before you. All the past has drifted off somewhere, filed away, and yet not kept. You are free today to be as you want to be. If your life has been beautiful, today your life is yours to make more beautiful. If the past has not been glorious, today is perfectly willing for you to make it glorious. Today is innocent, as innocent as you, beloveds.

If you have limped through life, today you can dance. If you have sung sad songs, today you can sing a happy song. And why not? Why stick with the same old songs? If today is a new day, why not a new song? You can make it up as you go along.

Do not feel you will lose your place in life by doing new things today in a new way, or even doing old things today in a new way. You can take the same bus or take a new bus or walk or skip or simply be a new you on the same bus.

Why not surprise yourself and others by enjoying today? Why would you prevent yourself from having great joy today? You were meant for joy, so why not have it and give it and have it and give it again and again today?

Do you really think that I keep an old book of records and look you up on it? Do you really think that I keep an accounting of all your thoughts and acts, a list of merits and demerits? I do not. I am not a bookkeeper. I am a Lover. Love keeps no records. Why would I? Why would I call you to task? Why would I go there? I am not like an accountant. I am God ever as I have always been. I am not caught up in the past.

How could I tell you to let go of the past unless I Myself let go of the past? It isn’t even that I let go of the past. It was never My idea to keep it. It is not My style. I keep My heart and My vision. I never lose sight of them. What is the past to Me? Where I live, there is no time. Where in Eternity and Infinity can the past be kept? Past-keeping is an activity of the world. Why oh why would I even consider hanging on to the past even if I could? Of what use is the past to man or God?

The past is not about you

The past is not about you unless you insist it is. Why do I need to read this in a Heavenletter? The moment I read it, it strikes me as my own truth. Why do I have to read it somewhere "out there" to remember? Is it about daring to? Anyway, once I'm past that sentence, I'm on a slide and the next "sentence" is: Nothing is about anything unless I say it is. Gathering speed, the next sentence is only a blur and then there are no further sentences.

Knowing things is what makes life so difficult. Contrary to what I have believed, the solution to life is not in knowing more, not in revelations, not in becoming more aware. We have to speak about awareness and even Heavenletters have to, but what it really comes down to is getting the garbage of thinking and knowing off that which is there and is perhaps best called nature or a smile.

To function in what we call the world, perhaps it is necessary to somehow know what we are doing. I doubt it, but I may be wrong. I am beginning to experience breaks in this world knowing. Not to know that these are keys I have to press k, e, y, s to make the word "keys". Not to know that this is Jochen and that a tree. It's not about forgetting their names. It's about forgetting all the ancient verbal and nonverbal definitions. And really it's not even about forgetting. Look out the window and suspend for a moment your knowing about whatever you see.

It can't be done, of course. But perhaps we can be open to having our heart touched by something God – we – may say tomorrow or may have said in an old Heavenletter.

Jochen mirrors what we think, usually.

Jochen, jochen, we always know what we know even when we don't know we know it. But the way you say it is so fetching!

my training out of the past

"Love keeps no records...I am not like an accountant...I am not caught up in the past"
I had my breakfast in the bathtub, afterward I went out on a walk with my blackbird to the collar, I bought cigarettes, which I do not smoke, to read what it is written on the packet, I sat down at the outdoor table of a coffe bar, I drank my coffee, it was, as usual, disgusting. I will try again tomorrow, it will be delicious, unless I say it will be not.

Emilia had breakfast in the bathtub!

I never heard of taking care of crumbs that way! Your words have a snap to them that's so cute.

George

Sweetest Emilia, what you

Sweetest Emilia,

what you decree will be, yes. I think I will love to sit with you tomorrow even if my body is not, but who cares about the body.
much love dear Angel

Gloria's Letter says the "past" won't last!

In my "Wonderland", of living on this cosmic step ladder, I hear the Cat shout: "George, you got to run as fast as you can to stay where you are." Then the Lion on the yellow brick road growls: "George, we ain't in Kansas any more,. we'll get a heart up that road a bit!" Because i like the dance, even the getting up now and then, I'm in love with IS just as it IS. This Letter tells us how to get more.

It's my impression that IS is always in the now, at no other time does IS manifest as IS. I suppose that's not important at all unless you're hooked on existence which only shows up in the now as IS. This may sound like some sort of circle, but it really is. Life's like that. Being caught on God's carrosel you just have to grab at that brass ring as you swing by. Life's like that too.

The end of this story is so darn cute; you get to tell a different story if you want to, the next time around.

George

George, do you know I never

George, do you know I never grabbed that brass ring ?? it's curios isn't it ?

I love the ISNESS or suchness, it so freeing, it simply is, no other stories, only the IS of now, like floating in a blue velvet sky ...

love and hugs
Berit

Berit tells the Truth

If you catch hold of God's brass Ring you get to keep it and wear it. It was for freedom that you've been set free, walk in that freedom and catch some fireflies. Love you more

Comment on Heaven Letter 3560

God asks "of what use if the past.." Well, how about life lessons learned and the evolution of the soul?

deNell, thank you so much

deNell, thank you so much for posting your question. You are caring very much about truth.
I'm looking forward to seeing what the good hearts and minds on this forum have to say in response to you, and I'm looking forward to more comments from you!

the use of the past

Dear deNell (is that your first name?), the answer you are giving seems so obvious and I'm sure we have all thought along these lines. It's a topic Heavenletters deal with again and again, treating it in every conceivable way (well, it's three topcis, really, "the Past," "Evolution" and "Lessons"). Instead of trying to explain, let me suggest you simply go on reading Heavenletters – which is much more satisfying and enlightening than explanations anyway.

A New World of Space and Time

Whenever God declares that "today is a special day" (and it happened a few times in earlier Heavenletters) I am excited and, at the same time, I know I will be "disappointed" at the end of the day. Of course, it is because I try to analyze it. But when I read that "Today you have a new start...You can make today anything you want", I wonder how I can start anew without the past. By "without the past" I mean that there is nothing on this Earth that we can really do or imagine without memory and without copying nature. How can I imagine a new life where there is no memory, a life where I will create only with vibrations, without any preconceived images, without any known tools? How can I even imagine painting without colors, singing without notes?

So after reading this Heavenletter, I decided not to post any comment until I would stop analyzing this letter and let it simmer on the stove for the rest of the day. So, last night, wanting to relax without having too much to think, I watched the movie "Collateral damage" with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Without entering into the details of the scenario of that movie, let us say that it concerns personal revenge into the context of political operations. You want to kill somebody because this somebody has killed your wife and your kid in a terrorist attack.

While watching this deadly fight between Good and Evil, between Democracy and Military Governments…I started feeling TOTALLY NEUTRAL watching this conflictual scene. By totally neutral I mean that I saw the whole scenery as a game like if the fight between the Good and the Bad was absolutely nothing but a game that we take seriously. And this NEUTRAL STATE in my heart made me feel a huge amount of Compassion towards us, the human species. It is such a liberation to discover that Compassion is so encompassing, yet it is not emotional at all. It floats above duality like Love, because Compassion is Love. Non-judgement is also a dynamic state of Love.

So when God said (earlier) that "TODAY IS A CONJUNCTION OF YOUR LIFE", I think that effectively there was a new conjunction of my life. These words were not only metaphor because I knew that today is/was the 24th of August and it was x o'clock.

I just realized so intensely that what makes me believe that I cannot really change myself deeply is that I am looking for consistency of life. And the seek for consistency is our very human bias. My past experiences are based on a consistency model of our physical perception of the Universe. This perception has a premice which says that we are alone in the Universe and that the essence of our world is duality. So is science which uses a dual consistency model of observed phenomena and deducted laws. We live in a parameter, a paradigm that pertains only to our relative 3 or 4 D dimension. And what are the constants that give this consistency its apparent solidity? What else then struggle for power and control, hunger, and war?

What if we started operating a shift in our consistency model of life? What if we substitute God's intelligent design to the Big Bang Theory of the beginning of the Universe? What if we substitute Neutrality to Duality? Peace does not oppose to War, Love does not oppose to HATRED. Compassion does not oppose to Harshness. Love is One, Neutrality is One, Compassion is One.

What if we really started believing that the physical law or the real consistency of life on earth is Peace? Is this new conjunction a way of saying that there is a new magnitude to Earth, a New World of Space and Time? I believe more and more so. We have to stop thinking that there is nothing that will happen that has not happened before (according to our old consistency model of life). On the contrary, we have to EXPECT things that have not happened before. How can we create otherwise than believing in the UNEXPECTED? That seems how life really operates. The magic of life is the magic of God's way of doing things which we can reproduce. God told us many times to copy him. Do we? This is a tremendous shift in our way of seeing Reality, a shift where we don't fear anymore the world because we are put in control of the world in conjunction with God. And the past is an obsolete consistency model of life.

Oh, Normand. I am reminded

Oh, Normand. I am reminded of the first moon landing. I forget the exact words and who said it, but it was something like: "We have landed."

You have landed.

Fantastic, Normand!

Fantastic, Normand!

Normand, if I only suspected

Normand, if I only suspected that a Shwartzenegger movie, what's more called "Collateral damage", might have led me into such wisdom, I would have certainly made the effort to watch it. One never stops learning.

Dear Julietta, that is

Dear Julietta, that is exactly what I said to myself. An Arnold Schwartzenegger in a Fortune cookie!

a whole new start

Last night was the longest of the year. We had a fire in the garden to celebrate the new beginning, and it was beautiful and warming, even our cat seemed close to interested.

Today is a gray day, but to the south, over the mountains, there is so much light and coming closer.

You can take the same bus or take a new bus or walk or skip or simply be a new you on the same bus.

If I would pray at all, today I'd ask that all I know be taken from me so I can be a new me on that beloved old bus. What an impossible load, all that useless knowledge. Yes pin it all together off to one side.

It is so weird Jochen that I

It is so weird Jochen that I just posted a comment on today's HL (Dec 22, 2010) talking about the old and the new identity. And last night was the SHORTEST NIGHT or THE LONGEST DAY of the year Down Under. So I think we are all ready for the shifting of the Poles.

Normand talks of shifting of Poles!

Some fear this changing time.

The shift is Life's shift, just for us. We don't have to fear Life's love that helps us change to what we have always been.

George

Longest night, shortest

Longest night, shortest night -- obviously those poles are forever shifting anyway, yin and yang.

Jochen's love does it!

Jochen, you made the "BUS" a part of who we are becoming. So beautiful! Thanks

George
