Conversation on HL1898

Hello Lord!

Once again I am sitting here, having read another good reminder of Life, Living, Love and our Power we have together.
Long have I not taken the time too really talk to you like this, for so many different “reasons” that are each and every one of them of “null content”. And still, I gave these reasons a power, a hold on me, much more then they should.

I have to still admit that I create my own worries, my own sense of lost and tuning around in circle in my Life, all the while “reasoning” again that it is not “I” that causes all those things to happen, when in fact, wither good or not, I DO CREATE EACH AND EVERY ONE!

So Lord, by working with this HL, help me discover why do I unconsciously make myself “miserable” when my Heart longs simply for Your Peace, Love, Life, Abundance, Creativity, Joy, Ease and Simplicity of Living!

Belief is nothing, beloveds. What does belief count for in this world of man? What does it matter to the shape of the Earth whether you believe it to be round or flat? What do you think your beliefs weigh? And what do they affect? Whether or not you believe in miracles, what has your belief got to do with the existence of miracles? Don’t believe in miracles, and, regardless, miracles are just the same.

Is it really nothing God? I am saying this because, I see all around me the Power that Beliefs can have on us and our Lives.
OK, I will give to you the fact that it comes from our Head, or even worst so often from what someone else says (quoting Wayne Dyer “Belief are a label attached by someone else, KNOWING is from the Heart”), but still there is also a great Godly and Goodly Power that can be achieve with belief… Then why am I not using more consistently that power to transform my self and beliefs into TRUE KNOWING of Our capabilities?
Why do I so often only give power to negative beliefs/unknowing rather then feed myself with Your Flame of Life and Power? As you said, why do I give so much weight to the negative ones and not more to the positive ones?

From HL 1898:
Does anyone really imagine that your belief in Me or your disbelief in Me affects My existence? Beliefs or disbeliefs persuade or dissuade you. Otherwise, they affect nothing.

Of course, your beliefs about yourself affect you. Your beliefs about your place in the world affect you. They also reflect you.

Sure they affect only “me”, but at the same time, are they not a “driving force” that can bring us to the Knowledge, to finally let ourselves KNOW from our Heart the Truth and Power you have together, and the multitude of things that we can so easily accomplish, the so many Miracles you empower us to co-create with You!
And still, on and on, even Knowing the Love you give me, the total and complete power over my own Life an environment You so generously have given us, I “make myself” believe more the “incapability” instead of the Miracle Creations I CAN ACCOMPLISH, just by knowing (or at the minimum, believing) that with You, anything is possible.
And then, when I do believe, so often I get some sort of “obstacle”, or dis-belief thrown on my way, and once I again, I see my “past failures” coming to the front; but why to they reappear when I have let go of them, I have given up their “ownership” to You.

Do not fret that it cannot be true for you,

This fretting changes nothing

Nothing can change the essence

Yeah, God, I hear you once again :) and once again you remind me that Life and all things are so much more full of EASE and SIMPLENESS, but by letting so much dis-belief take control of my thought, I create my own obstacles.

And again, my eternal question of “but why do I do it if I KNOW this Truth”???

What do you think you are? If you think you are destined to be a miserable creature, you increase the odds.

The thing is, you will believe in something. Don’t think you have no choice about what you believe in. When you go to the race course, you have your pick of horses to bet on. In terms of your life, what do you bet on? Place your bets now.

Bet on good health. Bet on a long happy life. Bet on glad tidings. Bet on all that which you desire. What have you been betting on? What is the point of putting your money on doom unless you want it to win? [/i]

What do I think I am?
Does it really boils down to that simple Question?
{Yes and Always, Serge}
Yes, believing in our (or others) belief is our own choice, but God,why don’t then I pick more often the RIGHT ONE, the one I REEALLY AND TRULY WANT?
{Because you don’t believe yourself capable, or you don’t allow yourself to have, to be, to do these kindness I so desire to give you. YOU are keeping yourself away from Me by these searches and incessant scratching of the surfaces instead of digging in my Love and simply forgoing of so many of your erroneous thinking and beliefs. You do it to yourself out of a misplaced sense of duty to your past and beliefs from others that you can’t create miracle when in fact YOU ARE A MIRACLE WORKER if you simply let My power flow through and WITH YOU. Together we ARE making so many miracles, it is unbelievable to your “mind”, because even the “wrong” so much perceived around you is created by you/us.
Serge, you know all this, and still you balk at taking the necessary steps to advance, just because you are afraid and scared of what may happen, of the Happiness and Joy you will have enhanced in your life, but you are believing that it is not your due.
It is, my son, it is the grandest Heritage you have ever received and can ever receive! This heritage is FULL of MIRACLE you can accomplish, and so much abundance can be created for you and yours if you SIMPLY LET ME WORK WITH YOU!!. I can even hear you already going “ok but how”, when this “how” is totally irrelevant, because it is MIRACLES we are talking about, not creating at the “man-ly” level.
Let your imagination create, and let me and you “Miraculise” what your desire}

Commentary on Serge's Powerful Thoughts

Dear Serge,

My thoughts in red, God quotes from Heavenletters in blue:

How very happy I am to find and read a post of yours. It has been too long! Serge, you put such care and thought into expressing what you have to say. I think, dear Serge, you express what everyone feels. Certainly I recognize myself in what you write. Your bare-boned honesty is so wonderful to read.


And I love how you go through a Heavenletter, really making it yours.

I notice you address this to God! So which one of us can come in to respond to you! There really is nothing for me to say except “Yes, that’s how it for me too. I feel everything you feel.”

But I will read through with care what you have written, and I will throw in whatever pops into my head. I think it would be very hard to add to anything you have said because, despite all the surface stuff, you also see from a wider perspective and so witness yourself.

Let’s see what happens as I take a tour through your magnificent thought process:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don’t know how we change our beliefs except by changing our thoughts. If we are listening to music on one radio station and we don’t like it, we change the station to find one that has music we like.

It sure feels like we are victims of our thoughts, but they are our thoughts. We make the thoughts and then we listen to them, like a jingle on the radio that we know better than to spend our time listening to and yet keep running through our minds.

And still, on and on, even Knowing the Love you give me, the total and complete power over my own Life an environment You so generously have given us, I “make myself” believe more the “incapability” instead of the Miracle Creations I CAN ACCOMPLISH, just by knowing (or at the minimum, believing) that with You, anything is possible.

Yeah, God, I hear you once again and once again you remind me that Life and all things are so much more full of EASE and SIMPLENESS, but by letting so much dis-belief take control of my thought, I create my own obstacles.

That is a beautiful poem.

Serge, do we really create our own obstacles. I am not so sure about that. Maybe we invite them. Precipitate them, perpetuate them. Does that we mean we create them? Maybe we select them like a song on a juke box. I don’t know.

Does anyone remember a comic strip called the Katzenjammer Kids, or Twins? Whatever went on in the comic strip, the ending was always one of the kids saying to the other: “You brung it on yourself.”

And again, my eternal question of “but why do I do it if I KNOW this Truth”???

God bless you, dear Serge.

Thankyou Serge!
This is the one question I've been wanting to make to God in these days:
Why can't I change my thoughts, when I know which ones I should let go and which ones I should keep? Will I get stuck on my path because I can't change my thoughts, o will You leave me behind, because I can't change my thoughts?
Paula

Conversation on HL1898

Hi Paula,
Interesting question. From my own research on the
subject, there seems to be several layers of mind. The
shallowest level of everyday thought is said to take
up all of our awareness daily. This is what Indian
philosophy calls the monkey mind. It is all over the
place. Deeper levels of mind are open to spiritual
processes, such as the ability to create miracles, to
understand the basis of creation, indeed to become
God, or a son or daughter of God. In order to
accomplish this state of being we need to quiet the
monkey mind. This will reveal entire new vistas of
thought and experience.

In order to quiet this mind all oriental traditions
have created various types of meditation as mental
techniques. These are supposed to quiet the shallow
thinking mind allowing us to access the creative mind.
And this is not easy to do. I remember one very famous
Indian saint who recently answered a similar question
by one of his disciples. He said that the amount of
thoughts that still went through his mind, even as a
master, was immense.

Love as professed through Heavenletters can
conceivably accomplish something similar. In total
Love there is little room for fear. And it may be
fear, also seen as our pervasive sense of separation
from others and from God, that gets us to thinking all
the time, trying to figure out how to do this or get
that for ourselves. Something to think about. He He.

Does anyone have an effective meditation technique that they'd care to share? I think my monkey mind is on cocaine or maybe speed!

Thankyou Robert for your interesting insight. I've tried many meditation methods, but none of them seemed to work. I just couldn't quiet my mind. I know we are immersed in the collective consciousness and tapping into it, so we can never really be free of thoughts. I feel visualization works better for me.
What I was talking about, however, was not quieting my mind but changing my thoughts from negative to positive, or perhaps I should say: how to keep only the positive thoughts and let the rest go. It seems that I succeed in doing it for a while, but then something happens and I'm back to the gloomy again. It's about holding what they call 'the Immaculate Concept' for persons and things and the world. Being out of duality.
I just wonder if it's possible while we are still here.

Paula;
 
God is good.
God is all.
All is God.
Good is all there is.
 
How can negativity, evil, ignorance, darkness, and pain exist
under those conditions?
 
They are illusions obviously.  They don't exist.  They are unreal.  It's like a fiction novel or a TV drama. Not real. How can it harm you?  How can your imagination hurt you?  How can a fantasy or a nursery rhyme harm you?
 
Once you understand the real, true nature of the Third dimensional Material Reality it's purpose is clear.  To teach you fear is an illusion.  The meaning of events becomes obvious.  What's behind them is clear.  Why they are there, and what the lesson is is the meaning they give us.

Conversation on HL1898

Hi Paula,
Visualization can be very powerful. The more you can
visualize something, down to specifics, the more real
you make it. That reality creates physical reality.
What I used to do, a lot, was when negative thoughts
came to me, I learned to visualize them burning to ash
and smoke. The smoke rose up into the heaven to be
washed away by God. The more I did this, the quicker I
became at seeing my negativity almost before the
thought completed itself. After a while all that was
left were the good thoughts. I still use that
technique on occasion.

When I read Gloria's heavenletters my heart expands
and keeps my mind free from most possible backward
steps. Is getting to that state possible for most
people here on the physical plane? Way Yes!!!! We are
all already pure. We only have to polish the mirror to
see the truth of who we are. That's a traditional
Buddhist image. I also wonder if a quiet mind means a
mind free from all thoughts or whether it simply means
a thinking mind that is also able to access our
creative/miraculous deep mind. Perhaps a thinking mind
full of compassionate and loving thoughts as well as a
mind that takes care of daily activities.

From everything I have read, and how I personally
feel, You are already on that path to freedom. Your
questions regarding this indicates that you are deeply
aware of the next steps on your path. That is a huge
step towards Love and enlightenment. To be aware is a
powerful prerequisite to anything important happening.
With awareness comes the ability to pray for guidance
as well as inner help. The path to God opens wider
with awareness.

You WILL succeed,
Robert

Good question and I've been asking that since I learned TM around 30 years ago.  Until very recent days I've been unable to achieve it.  I recently learned to chant and that's helping me overcome this difficulty.  I think that you can use almost any montra, even one that you make up.

Re: Conversation on HL1898

Hi Paula,

I really think John hit the nail on head perfectly in his post pertaining to your statements on good and bad thoughts. While reading A Course in Miracles, I came across a paragraph that speaks to the Truth of what John wrote to you earlier. Here Jesus states:

Brother, take not one step in the descent to hell. For having taken one, you will not recognize the rest for what they are. And they will follow. Attack in any form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from Heaven. Yet any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How can you know whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in your awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend to join with you, and give you certainty of where you go. (T.23.II.22.4)

In every difficulty, all distress, and each perplexity Christ calls to you and gently says, "My brother, choose again." (T.31.VIII.3.2)

Please don't forget that all the good that's been done is still there, still real, still alive and awaiting further realization.  Everything positive we sow goes into a Cosmic Computer Bank, I think.  Akashic Records.  Angels writing our deeds on scrolls.  Nothing is ever lost.  The record stands ready and clear; it's real, it's known; somewhere by some.  Access might not always be easy for various known and unknown reasons, but whatever any man has done, is there for the record and will be known in the full light of day for all to see someday.  We have Eternity to work in.  Think.  What is this one life compared to Eternity?  A grain of sand at the beach?  Yet, there are stars out there beyond the planets.  And galaxies beyond the stars.  Will mankind make it to beyond his solar system? 
We shall see what we shall see.  Peace. Focus!  Yes.  But on what do WE WANT to focus, see?  Heaven or Hell?  I mean.  Choose.

Attack in any form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from Heaven. Yet any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How can you know whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in your awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend to join with you, and give you certainty of where you go. (T.23.II.22.4)

In every difficulty, all distress, and each perplexity Christ calls to you and gently says, "My brother, choose again." (T.31.VIII.3.2)

THANKYOU Robert, Joe, Kirt, John Stefan for your beautiful insights. I read them with my heart as I see that's where they come from: your hearts. Our one heart.

John I love your new identification and signature. That's a great leap you made!

Paula

Wow, I never had so many male friends. :lol:

[HeavenLetters Board Heavenletters™ Comments] RE: Conversat

John,

I noticed that you didn't say anything about our bad doings being kept on those records, was that an oversight or did you do it on purpose?  Isn't that our Karmic records for the Karmic Lourds to use to judge us for our next existence?  We are here to learn, grow, so that one day we might be suitable to unite with our Universal Father/self, God/Christ Consciousness.  Heck I'm writing this so that my words might spark a little more God in all of us.  I've got corrupt lifetimes of Karma to burn off, and that's in part why I am here.  Our egoes are also being stroked, so thanks to you who might read our words.

LPL,
Joe

Dear Joe;
 
Focusing on what you call "Karma," even that which you insist is manifesting as "Bad Karma," in trying to find God, is like looking at the finger pointing at the moon, when you want to see the moon.  No.  I doesn't work that way.  It's kind of like saying I want to stop eating chocolate, so I will meditate on candy, or quit cigarettes and do mantras, "Lucky Strikes."  "Lucky Strikes."  "AH. CAMELS."  "PALL MELL."  A little counter productive, maybe, no?  It's also like thinking about SIN when on a path to god, what is holy, the divine,  the sacred, or that which is simply called in an ordinary sense, Spiritual.  NO.

hello to (((all)))
a wonderful sunday to you

and a message I want to share with you
in creating our wonderful being in the world ... John great that mantras... lovelaugh is a wonderful one I suggest....

here the message from the Group /www. lightworkers.com:

Expectations and Perception Create Reality 
You will find that your own expectations are creating your reality more than you have ever experienced before. Imagine for a moment that everything in your world exists in many dimensions simultaneously. Then your experience, and therefore your reality, will be determined by which dimension, and which point of perception, you view it from. In an unconscious world that choice has been hidden from you. That is now changing rapidly, for more possibilities are before you now than you could ever imagine. As an exercise we ask you to look at the crystal with two conscious thoughts: (1) What is the highest point of perception from which I can view this item? and (2) What are my expectations in viewing it? With this understanding we suggest that instead of seeing the crystal that is real and tangible in your hand, that you begin to look at that crystal, and the world around you, as simply a possibility rather than as reality.
Once you become accustomed to this way of thinking, you take on more of the multidimensional qualities that the veil has kept hidden from you thus far. You will find yourself drawn to places that alter your own perception, and then watch for that reflection of your unique beauty in those around you. Those possibilities will become greater than ever before. You are becoming conscious creators. You are now taking responsibility for your own lives, for it is no longer appropriate to give away responsibility for your lives — in effect giving away your own power—to world leaders. It is no longer appropriate to give responsibility for creating your own reality to your spouse, to your children, to an authority figure or to anyone else. Although these people may play a significant role in your life, re-member that you are the only one who can take responsibility for your perceptions and expectations. That is first and foremost in your world as conscious creators, for our perceptions and expectations are what creates our reality. Therefore, if at any time you are unhappy with the reality that you have created, we ask you to have the courage to choose again, to close your eyes really tightly and as you open them again to see a new world of possibilities before you. See possibilities rather than realities, for that will ignite your spirit, especially in the days ahead.

What God in Heavenletters says

Dear Joe, in the Heavenletter written down this morning (not the one sent – they are about two weeks ahead) God said:

“Where are the Akashic Records, you ask? They are within you. They are in your genes, and they are not an immutable script. They are written in invisible ink. Actually, they make no mark at all. You are as indefinable as I am, beloveds. You cannot be boxed any more than I. Where could it be written that you are less than I say, less than I am? I Who am the Boundless, where would I bind you to the past? I would not. I declare the past undone. I declare the past never was. I declare that you are, and you are what I say. You are My beautiful painting brought to light.”

God has said again and again that we have nothing to prove, that He loves us as we are – right now.

Why would God tell us not to judge if He thinks it's so important that He has to.

With love and blessings,

Gloria

Hello John,

It does hurt when I don't live up to my own expectations of self.  When this human being I'm presently existing in fails me, the soul, is Karmicly harmed and bad Karma is recorded by those same angels you spoke of, NO?  The ego human me, is still a little bit trigger happy.  Although, I no longer argue, there is some undisplayed fireworks in this heart of mine when I am wrongly accused.  "I am soul of God, and shouldn't fail!"
