Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

I would love to see more of your story of the highlights of your spiritual life.

Here's something I give to people before taking a Godwriting(tm) workshop:

YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY
How You Got to Where You are Now

No one on Earth has had your spiritual journey. No one ever, past, present, or future, has ever experienced your spiritual journey or ever will. And you’re not done yet! You still have more to go.

In writing down your spiritual journey, you will discover more. You will discover yourself more fully as the spiritual being that you are.

A spiritual journey is not exactly the story of your life, but focuses on the highlights of your spiritual life. Emphasis on spiritual. And you don't even have to tell the whole story all at once. Perhaps one event occurs to you now that you would share with us.

The following questions and thoughts are meant to get you going:

Perhaps you think of two or three turning points.

Or maybe a single phrase someone said once, and you have never forgotten it, and somehow it may have influenced you spiritually.

Maybe your path was clear. Or maybe it had unexpected twists and turns.

As you look back, what are some of the surprises you see?

What were the greatest influences on you?

If you were to draw a map of your spiritual development, what might it look like?

What are three great things you have learned in life?

What are three dominant experiences you have had that may have been pointing to God?

What are some of the steps that brought you to the place in your spiritual life where you are now?

Is your understanding now different from your view of the actual experience at the time?

Was there any way to know back then where you would be now?

Where are you now in your spiritual journey? What do you feel?

How do you imagine your own Godwriting™ might change or add to your life? What do you want to happen?

What questions are in your secret heart to ask?

Thank you for sharing your story. Of course, even as each story is unique, it is also our common experience.

Blessings and love,

Gloria

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

I can not answer those questions with the depth that you are asking.
All that I can say is that from the begining as far back as I can remember God always was and he continues to be. If it was not for God I would not be here. No matter how much I am mocked for that belief I know it is true.

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

oh gloria gloria! you don't imagine how i would like to write more on my,
which is our, spiritual life!!! but each mail longer than half page costs
me too time, and my job and the problematic family take so much of my time.
so I intervene when i can, as you have seen. but i'll try to find the time,
my time, for this. i need it.
love,
maria :-)
i add my light to yours

Response to Indigo Child and Maria

Indigo Child, how fortunate that you always had that awareness of God. Wow! I cannot even imagine. But what a beautiful story that is.

Mine is so different from yours.

Maria, I know just what you mean too. There are responses you have to some of the questions, and you want to write them right down, and others things take a priority.

That's one reason why I think it's great that we can tell a little piece at a time.

One of the questions is about some remarks you might have overheard and somehow remember and somehow may have had an effect. I will tell about a couple. I believe I included one these in the Story of Heavenletters on the web site. Forgive me, I'll tell it again!

I was leaving the rest room at the college I went to. And a girl I knew who was very devout and practiced Judaism to perfection said one sentence to me that I have never forgotten. I don't remember what led up to her comment, if anything. Maybe it was just out of the blue. I may not have the exact words, but there were like this: "Sometime, Gloria, you are going to have to come to terms with God."

It's not like I kept thinking about it or did anything about it, but I never forgot what she said. I wish I knew how to find her now and tell her what happened. She was just someone I knew in passing, although I do remember her name.

Probably around the same time, the bus was my transportation. Either waiting for the bus, or on the bus, two girls in their teens were talking, and one said to the other: "I never thought I'd ever say God bless you to anyone." This overheard conversation has stuck with me too. And what this girl said proved to come true for me as well.

Can either one of these be an accident? Of course, at the time I didn't know that what they said would keep occuring to me. And I can't help feeling that each of these people were instruments, like it's really true that people appear before us with messages we are to hear.

The third thing I'd like to tell about is about when I was in 8th grade and we learned metaphors. Although I was always pretty good in school, I really came alive when I learned about metaphors. It was like something in me came alive.

And now God's words are filled with metaphors, and I still love metaphors and I am thrilled with each one. I love them all!

And I would love to read more about everyone's spiritual adventure.

Blessings and love,

Gloria

Not yet, Alicia. I appreciate your posting on this forum.

I believe your message will be forwarded to me.

Thank you for posting and for posting here! It gave me a chance to reread all the great comments here. So wonderful. Worth reading again and again.

With love and blessings,

Gloria

P.S. Happy day! Your message just arrived! So far, from my side, your email could be posted here!!

Reading Gloria's memory

Reading Gloria's memory about the girls waiting at the bus stop where one of the girl's is over heard saying, "I never thought I'd ever say God bless you to anyone" made me remember a moment during a trip to Ireland. While at a local pub the waitress sneezed and I just naturally said, "God bless you" to her as this has been something I've done my entire life when someone sneezes. The waitress looked surprisingly yet pleasently shocked, even overwhelmed and smiled then said "thank you, one can never get enough blessings"!

Hey I suppose that is part of my spiriual journey isn't it!

Peace,
Cailen

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Dear Gloria and dear all, ok, I’ll try to use the workshop questions as outline, so that it is easier for me. I’ll “answer” to one of them for the time being, exactly the first one: <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
As you look back, what are some of the surprises you see? I see a Maria, I don’t want to say completely, but almost, different. I was a little baby ever in need of help. Even when I was 30, 35, etc., even if I was already wife, and mother, and worker, and the years were passing… That Maria had ever to ask for help to her husband, or to a sister, or to some friends, even to her son (poor child…), she didn’t decide anything alone. The surprise is that the old Maria, even if she is ever here, in the same time she almost doesn’t exist any more! The surprise is to try to see that Maria now and don’t find her. The surprise is to see that Maria of the past and almost don’t recognize her and to think: it was ME???
I think I know the steps which led me to be now how I am (for the time being...): they were psychoanalysis, several courses and seminars and yoga, etc. But I think also that it doesn’t matter what I have done, the kind of things I undertook: at a certain point (perhaps when I was about 35, but I am not sure of this) I started to understand that it wasn’t really I to move, to decide the steps to do. There was Something, Someone, I thought my… oh I don’t know this expression in English and the dictionary doesn’t help me in this kind of things: Sé Superiore in Italian, Oneself perhaps? I mean the Superior Consciousness of myself. The awareness to be helped in this way and that I wasn’t alone has been a great inducement for me.
Another surprise, at this time, was that I met several splendid persons who taught me a lot of things, and I considered myself very lucky for that, I was astonished at this! How it was possible that someone like me, who didn’t count anything - could to meet this kind of people? The surprise is now that I think I am worth to live, before all (oh yes, I didn’t think so before!), and this life is a great gift and I continue with meeting marvellous people (like Gloria and all the Heavenpeople for example) and it is right to meet them and it is not the question of luck, on the contrary!
Now my eyelids are coming down as little curtains - it is <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />12.40 pm - so I thank you Gloria to stimulate this kind of “confessions” and also to gently force me to practice with English! I greet you and all with a huge smile like this J, Maria
 

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Hi:
 
That is very interesting, Maria.  You are a woman and I am a man, right?  I am a mature adult man.  I know what life is about.  I know what men struggle for and why.  But, I am a poet.  I paint.  Yet I feel secluded where I am here, isolated, alone, and even though I like the privacy I feel I should deserve here, somehow my conscience seems to bother about what my mother had to endure when she was alive up to about a year ago.  I feel that the shame and humiliation this good woman lived with all her life was my fault.
Superconsciousness tells me things I have no way of explaining.  I tell  myself I ama mentalist and my therapist would probably accuse me of "magical thinking." if he knew what powers I ascribe to the Divine inherent in my Soul.
 
I'll go on, later.
 
See Ya.
 
Stefan.
 
 
 
 
 

I feel you here. How we

I feel you here. How we comprehend our lives is subjective to our experiences, and yet I see so much of my life in the lives of others.

Yes!

Yes!

How I knew that LOVE is all we need to do...

This is one step on my way to wherever.... a very deep one

One day I got a chakra harmonising by my daughter –

In every chakra a little gremlin was met – this gremlin had many knives
With these knives he worked to defend whatever and hurt me till I bled and bled and bled...

We asked my guardian angel to take him – but with the next chakra he was here again ...
We asked himself to go where he came from – he did not go...

After having finished the harmonising I began to talk to „my“ gremlin... I told him whenever I thought of him that he has nothing to fear – that I love him... and that he may please take this love

One day I saw him sitting on the floor without his knives but still very blue
So I continued to tell him – to show him my love without asking anything from him...

This lasted about two weeks and then I saw my gremlin dancing through a field of sunflowers
Singing: she loves me – she loves me – she loves me...and he brought me a bunch of sunflowers...

And when we gave a concert – we had an orchestra with friends – I was the soprano singer – he came with his little violin and played it... while I sung the hallelulja by Mozart...

From that time I learned to give more and more love – to get more and more detached so that the love was for all and everything...
This is a doing that became being... nevertheless there is more love to be given

And may I tell you that I get all the love back when it is given free from any condition and judgement.... and every judgement that still lasts in my thoughts is shown more and more quickly...to be let go...

sometimes I feel myself to be the gremlin with all the knives in my pockets!!!!....

REPLY TO VERONIKA, STEFAN, AND MARIA !

WOW! So p;owerful.

Veronika, your whole story is a metaphor, even like a myth or a fairy tale.
Poetry for sure.

Maybe we want to think about publishing a book of our spiritual journeys.

Stefan, please keep on with magical thinking! And, of course, you are not ascribing powers to the Divine inherent in your Soul. The powers are real, and they are within you. Within all of us. No doubt about that.

And, Maria, you expressed so magnificently deep subtle thoughts. Your story came alive for me. Believe me, there is nothing wrong with your English!

I think everyone who is fortunate enough to read what you wrote can relate. I know I was saying to myself as I read it: "That's me too!"

What everyone has written made me think of more I want to say.

Maybe when 200 more people have written about their soul's journey, then I will add more! Meanwhile, I would love to read more from you, Veronika, Stefan, and Maria. Please don't stop.

Very stimulating, everything posted under this topic has been incredible.

With love and blessings,

Gloria

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Publishing a book on our spiritual journies would be marvelous.  Let's get started.
 

To begin:

What's my story? I ended my journey for spiritual enlightenment right where I began. With me and me alone.
Yet, along the way there were experiences that were somewhat pleasurable and somewhat painful. Now, I only serve. I heal and I teach. I'm not going anywhere everybody else isn't. I'm here. I have arrived. My joy is yours.

Hi Veronika.

What a powerful process you went through. Although it
seems counterintuitive to most people the only way to
defeat any form of suffering is to love it and see the light that
is in it.

Spiritual Journey

They say, when one starts looking for God, he/she has already found him. To this, I would add: we do not "find" God. He was never lost, he was always there, even when we did not "believe" he existed. All roads do not lead to Rome, they do not even lead to God. He is not a destination, HE IS THE JOURNEY. No matter how much the river changes, the flow remains the same, for HE IS THE FLOW. He is not the Master Mechanic, Master Programmer, Master Artist, Master Dreamer, HE IS THE MECHANISM, THE PROGRAM, THE ART, THE DREAM. He is CREATION.

"Wherever you go, there you are". Wherever you go, there is God.

I know, I've always been seeking God, even when I thought, all I was seeking is love. I was seeking God, when I thought, I was seeking approval, seeking success, seeking riches, seeking answers, seeking solutions, seeking the Meaning of Life, The Theory of Everything. I did not know, and sometimes, I still forget, that I need not to seek any or all of this: none of this was ever lost, and was always available, as is God: all I need to do is to open my eyes, my ear, my mind and my heart, and experience all that I shought.

I have written about and posted elsewhere accounts of the really BIG miracles, my "close encounters" with God. I wrote about my "near death" experience at the time when I was eight, and almost died in a car accident. I wrote about the times, when I was comforted, saved, loved in a BIG, dramatic and miraculous way. I've written about my "burning bushes", the "thundering voice of God". I've shared my accounts of signs, insights, dreams and letters from God. However important these technicolor, surround sound, multidimensional, multimedia "presentations" are, I now believe, true enlightement is to be able to see, feel, and understand God in the small details, in the unnoticed, in the seemingly unimportant, in the mundane, in those experiences that we take for granted.

We sometimes lament, that there are no "real miracles" any more. No fish and bread multiplied to feed a crowd, no water turned to vine, no dead resurrected, no walks on the water....where is God, we wonder, why is he not showing himself as he used to in the "old days"? We forget and take granted the REALLY big miracle: the death of the past, and the resurrection of the future in every moment of the present. We forget, or disregard the most miraculous and ireputable proof of God's existence: the existence of our Universe, our very existence, our journey of life on the roads of Life.

I pray, that I would be granted an awareness of God in every breath I take, every dream, every wish, every desire, in every sunset, every raindrop, every day, not just Sunday.

I wish, I believed in God all those years of darkness, and I am grateful, he has never stopped believing in me.

Thank you for writing this.

Thank you for writing this. I am happy to know that there are others who see God as I do. I'm not "unusual" or "naive." So thanks for this. God Blesses You.

Response to Gloria's questionaire....

Gloria, et al: Greetings and Joy in the LIGHT!
I thought this would be a good introduction as a new member and would facilitate my education here on this forum. I apologize for the length but I thought it would be nice to get some of the background out front and into the background . I would also apprecite some hints on how this particular board works and where most congregate to share and visit.
Thank you all for letting me have a small place to sit and in JOY! :wink:

uriel*krystofers' SPIRITUAL JOURNEY
How You Got to Where You are Now

Perhaps you think of two or three turning points.
They are too numerous to list however, I am sure in the discourse here, some will come to the light that I can share.

Or maybe a single phrase someone said once, and you have never forgotten it, and somehow it may have influenced you spiritually.
"He has the most incredible eyes, he’s an old soul, like he can see right through me..." My 3 year old attitude and soul replied with a smile and giggle," yep…I am, I can."

Maybe your path was clear. Or maybe it had unexpected twists and turns.
It was very clear from the time I was old enough to understand...about 3 or 4. When my parents adopted me as a newborn, they said the first thing I did was smile and coo loudly and my Mother said through her laughter and tears, Hello back. At 2, I began talking and Mother said I never shut up after that. My Father of course, thought I would either be a lawyer like him or a preacher...funny how now I do all of it. I am an Adult transitioning Indigo. My grandmother knew immediately that I was "special" and wold not hold me at first, but in the car on the ride home from the adoption agency, she fought to hold me and she knew. As long as my parents were in some kind of control of my life, they tried to diminish my gifts, then after 2 or 3 months of Ritalin therapy, they decided it wasn't working (it had the adverse/reverse effect on me...it intensified my gifts) and took me off of it. Extended family members were also public educators and one of them brought a friend who studied at Harvard, Yale and a psuchiatric hospital up North, Boston I think, home to visit and to "test" me...In what was supposed to take all day, I completed the whole test packets in a couple of hours. The educator told my parents that "this child is not 'special in your definition, this child is gifted, would you folks mind taking the tests?" After that My Mother decided to put me in "special reading classes through school and other creative outlets." This began to work and eventually she took me to a Children's Theatre audition. One reading and I had the lead. It hasn't stopped since. I recently came across a questionaire criteria for Indigos transitioning and answered yes to all 20 something questions. I always wondered what the "special child" was...thought it was the old 50's synonym for adopted...but now realize it was something very different and gifted. I am deeply and humbly grateful for this and am working diligently to live up to and fulfill the purpose and make up for lost time. When I first contacted Gloria, she sweetly and gently reminded me of my "middle aged" youth. *grin*Thank you Gloria for that blessing.

As you look back, what are some of the surprises you see? How exhilirating the "awakening and transition process is."

What were ( YOU MEAN ARE…*grin*) the greatest influences on you? Unconditional love tempered with 'unrecognized and misunderstood' conditioned limitations, dogma, and restrictions as to spiritual growth. Outside of that, my innate ability to step past the boundaries of what was expected of me and live authentically as I was created, in the image of the Source. This wasn't without a great deal of discipline, correction, and "in house restriction!"...during those 'uh' early years. Another inspirational influence was the opportunity to create characters from classic scripts and small movie roles early on...something spiritual about each character I found I immediately connected with and out of that knowledge I created the character. It was an education in itself...not to mention excellent FREE therapy! *grin* Other integral influences, laughter - the kind that makes you cry, some of the classic texts, self-education and research, listening to "like minded friends" and their experiences, listening (over the years) and watching the journeys of many of the greater gifted, church...wherever it took place, along with many other things but more importantly, the love that I received from so many people outside of my family...some of which are still in my life. For this blessing I am deeply grateful. Oh and I remembered something else: Each time I teach a class, one or more people come to me and tell me thank you, or how something I said or illustrated inspired them, motivated them to new action, or touched their "very soul." Joy does that ya know....and I am, more and more, living in a joyfully abundant life. Serving does it to you...you can't help but love and grin.

If you were to draw a map of your spiritual development, what might it look like? This may change later but right now the only thing I can think of is an Asian garden matchstick fence, tightly tied together, standing upright with each matchstick a different length, never the same height, always changing the further the fence goes...but each one pointing up. For a map...only one direction....

What are three great things you have learned in life? 1)Meaningful purpose (service)...understanding that I am blessed and that is always someone who has it worse than myself...so it's my resposibility to share with them hoping they may glean something to enrich, empower, and direct their life, 2) the ability to love and understand the many levels while still learning more and to be grateful for the gift, 3) and most importantly, knowing that God is.

What are three dominant experiences you have had that may have been pointing to God?
1) His voice 2) His presence 3) Himself
Other than that, a more direct answer to the question: The very fact that he allowed me to choose to come here and do what it is that I am learning to do...serve. Seeing actual miracles take place. Watching how He is constantly and indefinitely in total control of everything. And the list goes on.

What are some of the steps that brought you to the place in your spiritual life where you are now? (see some of the above) Acknowledging that God is, knowing this truth and grinning uncontrollably when I witness it, and daily gratitude. Over and above that, the natural hunger to do the Great Work here in preparation for my eternal work at home with and for Him.

Is your understanding now different from your view of the actual experience at the time? This is a hard question to answer…because it has always been a mixture of trial and error as we continue learning until our final transition.

Was there any way to know back then where you would be now?
Truthfully, there were split second moments when I saw where I am now and even glimpses of where I can be and may very well be ahead of me. *grin*

Where are you now in your spiritual journey? Growing, learning, sharing, loving, preparing, forgiving, teaching, laughing, crying, believing. What do you feel? Empowered, excited, and ready.

How do you imagine your own Godwriting™ might change or add to your life? It already is and it excites me as I grow and polish my writing. The more you learn, the more you grow, the more you change, the more you bless, the more you love, the more you add, the more you continue, the more you believe. What do you want to happen?
Everything that is already a part of my plan and purpose that God and I discussed before he sent me here. I wonder sometimes why He wiped my memory clean of those conversations, but I am gently reminded of some of each as I listen to Him now and think, Oh wait, we’ve talked about this before right?

What questions are in your secret heart to ask? Ask who? God? Myself? Anyone? Anything? Okay that’s another book…I’ll start working on that one right away.
But then that would be like finding out the gender of your unborn child. If you were supposed to know you would. It’s like sneaking and opening a hidden birthday or holiday gift before it’s time….that takes all the fun out of it. Think of the lost JOY!

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Hi;

My name is John and I feel like I am in the same boat as you.
I think, "What's wrong with me?"
People tell me nothing. They say I am perfect the way I am. I can understand that philosophically. But, it's not reality.
What do you say?

John Stefan Riccio

YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY, CHRISTOPHER

Wow, wow, and wow! Christopher, this is so magnficent. Writing from the heart always is.

I feel so uplifted from reading what you have written that I could comment with awe at every sentence you write, dear one. You make me want to go deeper into my own story.

You know, there's a Godwriting workshop this weekend, and I ask people to write down their spiritual journey. Everyone's spiritual journey is beautiful. I find I would like to share what you have written with the workshop partipants and inspire them.

Looking forward to more of what you have to say.

God bless you.

With love, Gloria

JOHNNY!

Dear Johnny,

I have gone to movies with someone and, every once in a while, find that they have seen a different movie from the one I saw! Do you know what I mean? We may have both liked it but what they saw and what I saw were so different.

That's how I feel about Christopher's spiritual journey. I thought he expressed great joy and appreciation of his journey and is looking forward to more. You saw something else!

And I don't know anyone but God who says we're perfect!

Love ya,

Gloria

DEAR JOHN and GLORIA, et. al:

I have to say first of all, this forum and the way it works on the computer is a little confusing...so I wasn't quite sure who to answer.

Let me begin by saying, I know God lead me to this site and to contacting Gloria. Your focus GLoria is one that that need not be deterred. Thank you for your warm and encouraging words, and your love, that means a great deal.

John, I'm not sure your post was directed as a response to me or not, as the system this format and 'databot' uses is very new and confusing.
I am in Indigo and broke systems when youn ger now I only focus on the emotional side now that I am transitioning to Crystal and haven't moved in time with the computer and technology. Please forgive me.

John, when you ask or state..." Posted: Fri Mar 31, 2006 8:53 am My name is John and I feel like I am in the same boat as you.
I think, "What's wrong with me?" 1) Who were you responding to? My post? 2) You feel as though you are in what same boat? 3) What philosophy is it that you understand? 4) "But it's not reality. What do you say?"

(IF) you were responding to my post then I would respond to you thusly:
!) 'in the same boat"......WELCOME! One day, one step at a time.
2) Why do you think something is wrong with you? Giving into any kind of stimuli is one of the first things you learn when dealing with and nurtutring your spiritual awareness and growth. Why would anyone "limit or try to control themselves" with a negative thought, idea, concept or response? (I'm not saying you are, I am just trying to respond honestly to your post and if it is indeed a response to my post. If it was meant for another poster, please dismiss and forget....oh, and forgive.
If not and it is indeed meant for me, then I have to say, relax, stop limiting yourself with restrictions from growing by saying there is something wrong with you. If you are giving into the others outside, who seem to make you feel like you have either done something wrong or what you believe or are doing is wrong, then stop that as well. You alone are accountable and responsible for your choices and beliefs....as are the people who wish to judge you. However, they also say, within the same breath, that you are perfect. Do you not believe this? If you think you're inferior and unaccountable for your choices, then you need to rethink. You have been created in the image of the Source, which is perfect, who IS perfect and therefore nothing you do or wish, or will or work to accomplish can be anything less than what you were created to do and be...perfect. If you don't think so then it's time to examine and let go of the things that you remain holding on to from your past that restricts you from learning or understanding how perfect (if anyone can be so liberal with that word) you were created to be. It is obvious that because of your reality, you don't see your creation and have not yet recognized and implemented your purposeful life. You are perfect John, as perfect as any human being here on this earth can be, but to know, understand, and live that perfection is another thing. If you walk through or sit waiting on your life to be "perfect", you are spinning slick tires in wet med-sludge and getting no where. Getting to a point of JOY and peace in your life takes steps, many and small, with yoursefl first...recognizing, diminishing and eventually ridding yourself of ego, and placing and committing yourself to your higher purpose and Great Work.
Being spiritual is one thing, but acclimating yourself to God's voice and His call is something totally different and on a totally separate plane from where we discuss this here. We ascend to this spiritual plane when we recognize the power that we were given at birth. This means loosing all ties and restrictions placed on us and conditioned in us when we were young and didn't have a choice. Then and only then can we move forward into the life of service, purpose and ascension to a higher spiritual plane.

From an earthly perspective, reality is what you choose to make it. What you think and give foundation to (when you speak it) is what you indeed believe and live. Truthfully, it's not really that hard to find peace, purpose, and love. It's always been there....it is the awakening and the waiting on it to happen that's hard. Remember, you and only you are in charge of your forward movement and growth. Making choices and listening to God's guidance is the first step in causing the transformation.
And also remember, what you and I experience will always be different and our own "realities" are as well. God is the one in control, not us, and until we let go of ego and our desires and wants, God can not and usually does not give us what we need because we aren't ready. We first have to void ourselves of self to be ready to receive the blessing.

Now I want to say that I may be way off base....because your post may not have been for me. But I feel deeply that some issues or questions have been answserd by what I have said, if not for you, for others who may have questions.

At any rate, Buddha said, "We are nothing more than what we have created in our minds, our thoughts are what we are." If we believe that we will succeed and reach enlightenment, we will. If we think we can't we're right.

And in love I have to agree with Gloria...and add that it's not a question of right and wrong, it's a question of choice and perception. It all goes back to the old adage: the glass is half FULL not half empty. Obviously if anyone feels empty or less than another they bless or witness, it is inner insecurity and a lack of commitment to seeing that they find, recognize and fulfill their God given purpose. Other than that, this earthly ride can be nothing more than a day at the local amusement park. When you leave, you spent money, had some thrills and are right back where you are before you eft to go there. What did you change, nothing but our circumstance and your local and immediate reality.

The philosopher Goethe said: The moment you commit to something, the universe conspires to assist you.

God is the Universe, and when we recognize our purpose and commit to it, God assists us in accomplishing it. He expects us to belive in Him, ourselves, and the ability and gifts that He has given us. And all He wants us to do is take that first step forward...not backward by questioning His leadership and direction.

Please help me understand clearly what you meant with your post and maybe I can share with you something more specific.

Remember, my opinion is nothing more than what I believe. I don't know if others share it or not, but when asked, I share my truth and how I have been able to change my reality and work towards something of a higher purpose.

As soon as I learn this "data/auto bot" and how it works I can visit other places here....and I look forward to the may opinions and souls God will belss me with as He is the one who lead me to Gloria in the first place.

I send love and light.
And I constantly pray and meditate for peace now.

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Dear Richard;
 
God bless. And thank you.  You did indeed come to the right place.
And you cannot imagine how much what you wrote has helped me.
What did you mean when you said you are going "Crystal?"
 
Getting rid of 'the ego' is a subject that has perplexed me for a long time.  I don't understand how a person who lives in the world today can function without an ego.  Do you believe you have a personality? Are you of the opinion that because God is running your life, no one is able to victimize you?
 
These are questions that have bothered me for a long time.  I hope asking them doesn't upset you.  I hope.
 
I'd like very much to hear more of your story.  Like, for instance, your personal spiritual history, I might say.  Like for instance, what hurdles you had to overcome to get to where you are.
 
It seems to me that you must have been through an awful lot to get to where you are now.  I'm very curious.
 
Looking forward to continuing this discussion and getting to know you better;
 
I am,
 
John Riccio

Hi;

My name is John and I feel like I am in the same boat as you.
I think, "What's wrong with me?"
People tell me nothing. They say I am perfect the way I am. I can understand that philosophically. But, it's not reality.
What do you say?

For Heaven's Sake!

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

 
Dear Krystopher,
 
I would say you are doing very well with this forum and everything else!
 
When you are at the forum, quite near the top on the left, you will see Forum Subscriptions. Click that open. If you haven’t already, and if you want to, check every box, and then all the messages posted on the forum are emailed to you. From then on, it’s just like answering emails. And your email will be posted and it will also be emailed to everyone who has checked those boxes.
 
That’s what I’m doing now, just answering an email.  
 
God bless you.
 
With love, Gloria

response to Richard's response to Gloria's questionnaire

Hello Richard,
What a joy & a blessing to have you here with us at Heaven...letters! I enjoyed your posting so much, I would like to write & share a respose to it, as well as some of my own comments about myself, in relation to what you've written. Here goes:
I believe that if we all try to reflect on how we got where we are now, we would ahve to say that the turning points are many, for all of us. I ahve so many things that have happened to me, as well as around me, that show me God, & make His presence known to me. That gives me all I need to share Him with all I can!
I am quite amazed that you have had people tell you the EXACT same thing I have been told myself for years!!--"You have the most incredible eyes, you're an old soul, you can see right through me..." These are things I have heard for as long as I can remember! I wonder what you look like, & what it feels like to be in your presence? It is as if we are in the same ilk...but then, aren't we all? :)
At about age 3 or 4 for me as well, it semed tat I was not yout typical toddler! I never accepted simple answers, I seemed wise beyond my years, & I always needed & wanted to know MORE. One of my most pressing issues was " Where does God live?" My mother would tell me He lives in church.I would say" If he lives in church, why can't I see Him there?" I also very much neede to know why the sky was blue---at 3 years old!! I think another trait "we" share was the ability to talk at a VERY young age.We sure had alot of information we needed to share & gather! I am still a chatterbox...can you not tell by my ramblings?! :)
I was never thought to be hyperactive, ony gifted. As a young girl I was extensively tested, & it showed genius. I have tesed myself over & over through the years from childhood on, & I still do. I wanted & needed my own proofs. I got them. It was hard as agirl of 16 to be told my IQ was higher than Einstein's! I think my "knowledge" goes way beyond the books though, & I am on a search for what I have in my head that I need to share! It is like tere are secrets there , meant to be exposed. I am on a quest to see what they are...adult transitioning Indigo. :)( I also have an Indigo 15 year old son.)
Richard, may I ask your age?
It is wonderful that you found expression through acting! I wish I was so bold. I express through the written word, & I can talk to ANYONE. When I am in a store, people always think I work there! I am just approachable, to most everyone. I have an open door policy with my heart, as I do not know how NOT to love...it can be painful at times, but as we are all created in His image, are we not meant to love one another? :) I rest there.
Not to brag, so to speak, but one of my favorite recurring compliments, or I could say comments, on who & how I am is " You have such a beautiful smile, & your light always shines so bright whenever you come into a room." I have gotten that statement from young, old, male female...many. That makes me feel God truly, & blessed. Thanks, God!
I think if we KNOW that God is, then all the rest has no choice but to fall into place! God is. That implies SO MUCH.
Are you a seer, Richard?
Here we go agian, as we share yet another view: I agree that if we were meant to know the sex of our unborn child, God would tell us. It is one of His special surprise gifts we get as humans!
Love,
Jennine

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Greetings lovely people….thank you so much for your kind, warm, and inspiring words and for sharing your light and love with me. It is indeed a blessing to me and a gift from God.

I must say that this board is not the easiest to navigate. I apologize for taking so long to find your posts and getting to respond. I began writing my responses and the board bounced me off or something and I lost about a page from my heart. But since it’s in there, I can recall it…so here we go again.

If any of you wish to ask me specific things or share specific things, you can email me here and I will respond as quickly as possible, otherwise I will try and respond here collectively so that we can all share. With that being said…..I would like to begin by saying thank you to John R.

John (Stefan), I appreciate your kind words and am anxious to discuss or share relative reflections that may or may not give you insight into questions or comment on your posts. I don’t know if you are familiar with the Indigo, Crystal, Rainbow or other special children. The Indigo children began showing up prominently in the late 70’s early 80-‘s. They are special children with special gifts, abilities, and personality traits….they have been referred to as the “system busters.” They are strong willed, not easily convinced as they know what their purpose is, they have all the tools necessary to break negative patterns in industry, government, and social structures. I believe they were paving the way for the Crystal Children, the group of children born around the world in the 80’s and 90’s. These children possess special abilities as well and are consummately and continually concerned with spreading love, and forgiveness, diffusing all kinds of negative energy and evil. Nothing can stand in front of these children except truth and love. A researcher who has her Doctorate in psychology and other related arenas has done extensive research and has found that the Indigos began showing up in very small numbers as early as the 1900’s. Supposedly, there were about 5-7% born between 1919 and 1929 and then the % increased…with each decade…with about 25% in the 50’s . There is one who writes to her continually and she is in her late 80’s. I believe that I am one of the earlier ones born here in the US in the late 50’s and in a strange turn of events, found that I am making the transition to the behavior and gifts of the Crystal children…(which is not uncommon with older Indigos) today. A quick digression for example, this week I had to attend a Convention for one of the Professional Associations I belong to and serve on their Board and one of the young people competing in a competition that we host each year, was strangely attracted to me, she kept wanting to talk to me in depth about things that had no bearing on the competition. So after the competition was over we sat in the lobby waiting on her friends and we shared some of the most incredible positive energy and love of God and miracles. It was awesome! She is a Crystal Child and she knows it already (and is a member of a fundamentalist Baptist Church here in our state.)
She focuses her work at school on Community Service Outreach and has many of her friends involved. God is making His presence known in so many places and all that we have to remember is that nothing or no one can control it as He is in total control. He will reclaim His creation.

On the ego question John, all I can offer is my experience and the experience of others. Ego is a fleshly, earthly, driven desire for attention. It is a negative selfish need. When one rids themselves of ego, their focus turns outward and works towards making better the lives of others. If we realize that we all are already blessed, and allow our hearts to understand this and recognize that there are others who are less fortunate, the life purpose of service takes precedence. Focus turns to giving and loving and changing lives or at the very least giving tools and knowledge to help someone else change their own lives. Facilitating positive thought and energy is part of the great work. You are only victimized or you only become a victim when you allow yourself to be taken advantage of....empower youself with truth and power, realize that fear is nothing more than False Evidence Appearing Real....nothing more. Once you begin to live in this miracle, ego has no place to thrive. Personality? I had to laugh a little….yes, I have plenty of personality…not to sound egotistical…..it’s just that I live joy. in everything daily and my own personality is larger than life…..I can’t help myself.
I find joy in every little thing I do daily, even when it is negatively motivated…ie: using the last bit of grocery money to pay the light bill with a smile on your face and joking about it. Realizing of course, there are those that will not eat tonight.
The personalities of the Indigo and Crystal Children are of light and determination and are not self motivated, but inspired by their life purpose and the passion with which they live. The hardest thing to govern John is the heart.

It is my opinion that God has my life planned, and to an extent has control in the sense that He also gave me free will to choose. Making choices your whole life are the only things you will be responsible for on the day God judges, if there is indeed a great judgment. Understanding purpose and choosing to follow your leading and living the purpose, His purpose for you is the one time in your life that your free will is directly in line with God’s will. If we are connected with Him then this connection is even stronger when we acknowledge our life purpose.
Helen Hayes, the First Lady of the American theatre said, ““The story of a love is not important, what is important is that one is capable of love. It is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity while here.” Love is the key, it is indeed the answer, as it says in the old song. You live your purpose in love and allow your passion to drive you to service. Once you truly serve, you experience joy, real joy.

My personal spiritual history and education and growth has been incredible. I know I have been blessed with many opportunities that many may never have and for that I truly that to “whom much is given, much is indeed required.” I believe that it is all about choice, feeling and hearing God’s voice in your heart and acting on faith, believing in something with your whole heart where doubt has absolutely no room to flourish. You are nothing more than the product of your thought. If you believe you will face obstacles, your life road will be full of speed bumps. But if you see past the road of “dis-ease” you learn to use the speed bumps as ramps to propel you towards your future of purposeful living an abundant life and thereby making the lives of others just as purposeful and full of joy.

Yes, my road has been full of opportunities. I do not see challenges as negatives in my life. I see them as opportunities to grow. One of my students once asked me, “what is the purpose of life?” My immediate answer without thinking was, “to live to love to share to laugh to cry to feel in order to learn all of the skills necessary to use in my eternal work ahead.” I never understood the depth of that statement until my “awakening” and now I am learning “to whom much is given, much is required.” *big southern toothy grin* I appreciate your kind words and your gentle spirit. Allow authenticity and your life will take on immediate changes and joy will flood. As Gloria says, see the joy in the flower. See the joy through your kitchen window as you take your first drink of water after a sweet night’s rest. The birds will sing to you, the trees will whisper, and the light will intensify every color before you. It is then your choice to walk outside and dive into those beautiful gifts of joy. I wish you peace and I know that something I have shared will touch something you need to know. If you know it already, then I am confident you are smiling.

I don’t want to leave out anyone who responded so I have to share several things with Jennine and Gloria. Gloria, I have decided to stick to one thread until I learn to navigate through them better. I did click the Subscribe and checked several things. Now my question is, when they show up in my email box, all I do is answer them? I hope it’s this easy. At any rate, your love and warmth is a blessing and gift and is working it’s magic in others lives who are looking for that one inspiring thought. Thank you for allowing and choosing to share your voice!

Jennine…well well well sister, seems you and I have a great deal in common.
And I thought I had the market cornered on being “chatty.” *big warm smile* What a breath of fresh air you are and how blessed we are to read your voice as well. I want to say right off the bat “Jennie” (if I can be so forward) that you are already bold, "To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs." Emerson said many inspiring things, but this one I think really accentuates your choice or quite possibly one you might need to reconsider. Eleanor Roosevelt said that it takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan and act. *big warm smile* Watch your local paper for the next show that your community theatre is doing and go audition! Sing loud and strong, who cares if you’re off key. You’re making a JOYFUL noise. You may surprise yourself!

When you have time, drop me a line about your Indigo son! I would love to hear about the miracles you witness.

You said,” I have an open door policy with my heart, as I do not know how NOT to love...it can be painful at times, but as we are all created in His image, are we not meant to love one another? I rest there. “ I love to share so much and sometimes I tend to sound preachy and I honestly don’t mean to so all of you forgive me up front if I do sound that way at times. It is not my intention, I am so excited and see so much I have to share it all. You will only experience the pain Jennie if you choose to hurt.
There is something integral and magical inside of every challenge/opportunity. Even is our hearts are open and free, if we first place ourselves and our thoughts in a positive place, the negativity has nothing to feed off of and the love you feel even when it seems to hurt, pervades through and changes the energy.

Here is an excellent example: you said, “I think if we KNOW that God is, then all the rest has no choice but to fall into place! God is.” I would only respectfully change one word…….I think WHEN we know that God is……*big warm smile* You are so right Jennie…..Bless God!

Yes, I do believe that God allows me to see sometimes but more often than not I speak when He tells me to and most of the time, I don’t even realize I am speaking. Truth speaks for itself. It’s interesting that you used the “baby” analogy…when my sister was pregnant the second time after the first (a miscarriage) my mother had a “dream or vision” that she would have a boy and she was even given a name. Mother kept the name from my sister. They were at a Ladies luncheon where a guest speaker stopped in the middle of her presentation and said plainly, there is a young woman here who recently sent her first child back home to God and He wants you to know that He has blessed you again, and your son’s name will be XXX. The church nurse almost had to thump Mother. (thump is a local term for CPR) There was joy there that day I can tell you. So yes, we all see if God chooses and it is always in His time and season.

My last thought for today I want to share is something God laid in my heart a long time ago. It is power in the hands of those who understand it’s significance.

A human being is part of the whole called universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts, and feelings as something separate from the rest.
A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in it’s beauty…we shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.” Einstein

I send and share much love and Uriel’s light with all of you.
And as always, as Peace Pilgrim said, I pray for peace now.

Subject: [HeavenLetters Board Our Personal Spiritual Journeys-Bio's] RE: Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

 
Greetings lovely people….thank you so much for your kind, warm, and inspiring words and for sharing your light and love with me. It is indeed a blessing to me and a gift from God.

I must say that this board is not the easiest to navigate. I apologize for taking so long to find your posts and getting to respond. I began writing my responses and the board bounced me off or something and I lost about a page from my heart. But since it’s in there, I can recall it…so here we go again.

If any of you wish to ask me specific things or share specific things, you can email me here and I will respond as quickly as possible, otherwise I will try and respond here collectively so that we can all share. With that being said…..I would like to begin by saying thank you to John R.

John (Stefan), I appreciate your kind words and am anxious to discuss or share relative reflections that may or may not give you insight into questions or comment on your posts. I don’t know if you are familiar with the Indigo, Crystal, Rainbow or other special children. The Indigo children began showing up prominently in the late 70’s early 80-‘s. They are special children with special gifts, abilities, and personality traits….they have been referred to as the “system busters.” They are strong willed, not easily convinced as they know what their purpose is, they have all the tools necessary to break negative patterns in industry, government, and social structures. I believe they were paving the way for the Crystal Children, the group of children born around the world in the 80’s and 90’s. These children possess special abilities as well and are consummately and continually concerned with spreading love, and forgiveness, diffusing all kinds of negative energy and evil. Nothing can stand in front of these children except truth and love. A researcher who has her Doctorate in psychology and other related arenas has done extensive research and has found that the Indigos began showing up in very small numbers as early as the 1900’s. Supposedly, there were about 5-7% born between 1919 and 1929 and then the % increased…with each decade…with about 25% in the 50’s . There is one who writes to her continually and she is in her late 80’s. I believe that I am one of the earlier ones born here in the US in the late 50’s and in a strange turn of events, found that I am making the transition to the behavior and gifts of the Crystal children…(which is not uncommon with older Indigos) today. A quick digression for example, this week I had to attend a Convention for one of the Professional Associations I belong to and serve on their Board and one of the young people competing in a competition that we host each year, was strangely attracted to me, she kept wanting to talk to me in depth about things that had no bearing on the competition. So after the competition was over we sat in the lobby waiting on her friends and we shared some of the most incredible positive energy and love of God and miracles. It was awesome! She is a Crystal Child and she knows it already (and is a member of a fundamentalist Baptist Church here in our state.)
She focuses her work at school on Community Service Outreach and has many of her friends involved. God is making His presence known in so many places and all that we have to remember is that nothing or no one can control it as He is in total control. He will reclaim His creation.

On the ego question John, all I can offer is my experience and the experience of others. Ego is a fleshly, earthly, driven desire for attention. It is a negative selfish need. When one rids themselves of ego, their focus turns outward and works towards making better the lives of others. If we realize that we all are already blessed, and allow our hearts to understand this and recognize that there are others who are less fortunate, the life purpose of service takes precedence. Focus turns to giving and loving and changing lives or at the very least giving tools and knowledge to help someone else change their own lives. Facilitating positive thought and energy is part of the great work. Once you begin to live in this miracle, ego has no place to thrive. Personality? I had to laugh a little….yes, I have plenty of personality…not to sound egotistical…..it’s just that I live joy. in everything daily and my own personality is larger than life…..I can’t help myself.
I find joy in every little thing I do daily, even when it is negatively motivated…ie: using the last bit of grocery money to pay the light bill with a smile on your face and joking about it. Realizing of course, there are those that will not eat tonight.
The personalities of the Indigo and Crystal Children are of light and determination and are not self motivated, but inspired by their life purpose and the passion with which they live. The hardest thing to govern John is the heart.

It is my opinion that God has my life planned, and to an extent has control in the sense that He also gave me free will to choose. Making choices your whole life are the only things you will be responsible for on the day God judges, if there is indeed a great judgment. Understanding purpose and choosing to follow your leading and living the purpose, His purpose for you is the one time in your life that your free will is directly in line with God’s will.

Writing a Book

Hello Gloria,
I just found this "chamber" in the community forum - I have been
searching for "IT" stumblingly, in fits and starts. I am swept away by the
idea of having loads of people contribute their spritual stories to be
collected together in a book of spritual healing! Please let me know
when this gets closer to happening. I have so many stories, so many
answers to your questions, so many questions of my own! Since I've just
begun reading the offerings here, I'm sure you'll be hearing more from
me.
Healing Light and Love,
"This" Jo

Spiritual Journeying...

Wonderful questions, Gloria! I was blessed to be born into a family where the single most inspiring person in my life was already a member. My brother was nine when I was brought home from the hospital and presented to him. We immediately forged a strong bond of unconditional love. What a gift to learn about and experience unconditional love from the very beginning of my journey on this planet! Of course, as a child, I wasn't aware of how extraordinary this was, this being loved completely for no reason and loving completely for no reason in return. I figured everyone had this experience. It has taken me five decades to truly comprehend the gifts my relationship with my brother provided, and I continue to gain new insights. My brother was born with spinabifida. He was paralyzed from the waist down, had a collapsed lung, and slight hydrocephaly. He never walked. Born in the mid-forties, the doctors predicted his life would be "mercifully" short. He loved rock and roll music and American Bandstand. He loved pretty women. He loved people. He loved like no one I've ever known! When I was five, he was put in a state institution. When I was eleven, he died in that state institution. I spent years feeling unbearable sadness, grief and bitterness about this until this insight was given to me: The other souls living in that institution needed my brother's brand of loving much more than I did. I could never lose what was already mine and my brother had an unlimited supply and a long line of receivers waiting to be blessed.
Gratitude Forever

Well, first of all I want to

Well, first of all I want to say, live itself is a spiritual journey. It doesnt matter if you are living a counciousness spiritual live or if you are just existing in "all days live". The earth is a cosmic university, one of the finest places to learn and advance in high speed. There is no other place like this in the universe. That's why so much souls are incarnating here.

I personally have my own point of view about live and all of that. If I look around me, I see brother and sister souls all around me. They might be very different and doing strange things sometimes. But on a soul level we are all similar, parts of ALL THAT IS. And if I communicate on a soul level with them, they know about this universal truth. Even if they are not aware in their normal days live.

One of my questionswas, how is it possible, that a lawful God throw people on this earth just randomly in different situations giving them a chance to live a live and after that, take them away from earth and store them somewhere until the final jugment to select them into endless heaven or endless punishment. This just didn't make any sense to me but the answer was lacking.

After some inner fight I decided to step away from this believe system. I had a serios talk with God and Jesus and told them, that I can not beleive in that.

So I stepped back from religion and was living a normal days live without any prayers and all that stuff I have learned in my junger ages. Until I went to Corse for some vacation. There I met a woman which changed my live totaly. She was living on a camping place in some cottage together with some kind of an eremit. And she was working as a healer. Doing massages together with some kind of chiropraktik treathment. She also gave advices which herbs and tees to use to overcome certain illnesses.

She allowed me to stay at her place and gave me some learnings what she is doing and how. . And I asked here the burning question about the lawful God. She only laught and said, you are not on this earth only once but a lot of times. Reincarnation!

It was like a door opening flooding my mind with knowledge I knew for centuries. All the burden and all the anger I felt deep within me cause of this unfair God and what he is doing with people just dissapeared immediatly and love came back into my heart and made me glow.

I got an other lesson from the eremit about vegetarian diet. He still was very old, about 85 or so but in a good shap. Wounderful eys, and a incredible charisma. Not speaking a lot but if he spoke, it was pure truth. He told me, animals are our soul maids. We are not supposed to eat them. And when I asked about milk, he told me, milk is for the calves, not for humans.

So when I went back home I was filled with love and it was like remembrance of past lives are coming back to me. Belief changed to assurance and my communication with God and Jesus started again. And I started a vegetarian diet. I stopped smoking, I stopped drinking coffee and alkohol and trethed myself with herbal tees. My body and mind got clearer and clearer from day to day. But the lesson was not finished. Someday I stumbled over a book about meditaion. It wasn't hooked up to a specific belive system but only descibing a kind of breath meditation. And I started to practice.

In the beginning it was difficult. You never know how much thoughts are flowing through yor mind constantly and what kind of thoughts this are until you try to do some meditation. But after some weeks of pratice it was easy to just breath deep and go into a calm and peaceful state. The body dissapears, the world around you dissapears and there is only peace. And the some day it happened. Sitting there and breathing suddenly some kind of energie began to pump in the buttom of my body rolling up through my body upwards like an electric wave, like some kind of fire and it made wooom an I went out of my body. I wasn't conscious during the time I was where ever I was. When I came back slowly I began to feel my body again. I realised noises again but there was still a kind of vibration within me. And I was filled with unconditional love. Tears run over my face and I was thankful. Just thankful. I knew, what has happend. This was the awakening of the Kundalini how it is named in the Indian tradition.

I don't have a lot of rememberance of it but I was living in India in a past live as some kind of a jogy. So I only needed to remember to activate this gift of meditation and all the gifts connected with it like reading other peoples mind and emotions, projecting the conciousness to any place on this earth and so on. I continued to live like that. Vegetarian diat and meditation. I became so clear that I only needed a 3 hours sleep a day to refresh my body. But my mind never sleeped. I was just going out of body giving him the rest he needs and went in some kind of cosmic university and got teachings there.

In normal days live this had strange effects. I was working at a theatre as a sound engineer at that time. There was a little cabine at the top of the audience room where I was doing the sound work. When I began that job it was always difficult to follow the play on the stage cause of the distance and the lot of people in the audience room and the circumstance that I only was able to hear the play over speakers. But now I could project my conciousness onto the stage and be part of the play directly. Amazing. This time just changed my mind about what is time and space totaly.

But the next lessons waited for me. I went back to Corse to meet Emili again. When I stepped into here house again she looked at me. I said hello. And she seemed not to recognize me. I told here, I am Thomas, the guy you meet some time ago. And then she remembered and a big smile came onto here face and she said, "my God, what have you done with youself? You are looking awsome. Come to my heart!" and she gave me a sweet loving hug.

I started to assist here in here daily healing work. And this time she teached me about angels and stars and heaven. She was not only doing massages but during them she was doing mental work together with Angels. This lesson was about the astral plain and how it interacts with humans on earth. Sometimes people are lost on this earth in grief, anger, pain and all of that. This leads to a lack of protection of the auric field allowing entities of the astral plain to hook up to the brain and body of this people. They become some kind of symbiosis suffering together in pain lost in space. And Emili teached me, how to work with Archangel Michael to help them. There is no jugment while doing that. You just connect to the sould of the person suffering and you connect to the entities sitting in the auric field. You tell them about Heaven and ALL THAT IS, explaining, what they are experiencing. And then you call Archangel Michael and his Angel guard telling the clients, that now is them time for freedome. Most of the times, this astral entities are happy, that someone cares about them and if you tell them, they are more than happy to go with one of the Angels to a higher realm. Sometimes they where hanging in the astral plain for some hundreds years not able to find a way out. And it was always a big happening if they finally found a way to leave and go on.

What a lesson. The novice was grown now to a student of methaphysics. Thanks to my lovely friend Emili. I continued to internalise what I have learned and made quite some travels into the astral plain. Sometimes I was called from either Angels or people to assist them in changement. And I did. Practice is important!

And I choose Zen of cooking. We lived in the middle of Munich with the famose Viktualienmarkt next to us. So I went shopping in the evening, when I came back from work and then it was cooking time. Fresh vegetables all of the nice food and all of that cooked for friends and family served from the oven to the table. Nice time. And I learned a lot about Shiatsu and the far eastern energie system thinking. How to see with the hands. How to feel and see the energy system of a body. And so on.

There is not much of a difference. All is ALL THAT IS. We are just beeings swimming in an ocen of energie. And we are receivers and transmitters of energie. So to say transformators of energie. Our brain, our thoughts are qualifying the energie which is constantly flowing through us. Everyone is doing that. A cosmic law. So better watch what you are thinking and feeling. It manifests for sure!

WE ARE creators. Never forget that.

Time is a illusion. When I finally got that, it was like a avatar. The I AM was I AM and I was able to travel through time and space easily. And found myself far back in time in the times of Atlantis. There are a lot of secrets and rumors about this time here in our time. But it's easy to understand if you open your mind and don't mind about seconds, hours, days and years any more. It was seen from the beginning of this earth plain that there will be a time of "darkeness". In Atlantis, there was the time the earth went into the outer eclipse of the orbit around the central sun. It was known, the the conciousness on earth will drop. Therefor the knowledge and technology of Atlantis needed to be covered in order to prevent the humans to blow up this planete.

I know the places, where this knowledge is covered. And it is to be released now step by step. Cause of the simple reaseon, the earth has passed the outer eclipse of the orbit and is traveling nearer to the central sun again. Just look around you and you will notice, that there is a expotential grow of knowledge since some hundred years here on this earth. It's a time of change never seen in this universe so far. That's why a lot of souls are incarnating right now. Everyone wants to be part of this exceptional event. And earth is closely watched by the other civilications in the univers cause what is happening here will effect the universe. This is creation. This is ALL THAT IS. This is movement. This is expancion.

Last but not least, I found an other teacher. My lovely Lady from the lake. When we connected, Sun and Moon melt together. And I am on a journey right now whithout any borders.

And one more thing to say, Heavenletters is a generator. A generator of high vibrating light and energie. And I am proud to be part of it.

Stay tuned my friends!

Much Love and Light

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Wow adrachin!
What an amazing trip you have been on! I especially
liked how you talked about remembering. So much of
re-awakening seems to be remembering who we are and
where we have been.
Love and light as you continue your journey.
Namaste,

Offline but not Disconnected

Hello, Everyone!

I have been gone but not lost. I dont' have internet at home, -I am working on being reconnected with virtuality again soon- and find it more difficult to keep in touch, literally and metaphorically speaking.

I am sure there is a good reason for this! Perhaps I need the "offline" time to reconnect with the "other", the only real reality. I found in the past that solitude, forced or choosen was always to my benefit at the end.
Not to mention, when I do receive a message or a question to ponder on, (from friends, internet friends, strangers who saw one of my postings, or messengers and/or intended receivers of messages, who miracolously appear in my life as of lately) since I do not have the internet, I am forced to fight my human nature of impulsiveness. In the past, I would get so excited with a message, or so eager to help someone I felt was in need of my words, I would get on the net immediately, and spend hours, sometimes a whole night consoling or being consoled. I think, I am now forced to go deeper, to listen harder, to understand better...

Or else, I am just not given the money and opportunity to reconnect the internet...that IS also a possibility. After all, it is easy to believe in our own and God's power, when things are going right and going great. It is harder to have faith when things are not going the way we wanted them to go. Think about it: when things turn out the way we wanted, we say our prayers had been answered, or our meditation or our positive thinking, or whatever we are doing is working. When things do not turn out the way we expected, we cry out: WHY GOD?! OH WHY DID YOU DESERT ME?!

So...this is a postcard from the reluctant prophetess from her post in the wilderness. No, she is not going to turn into a monk, or nun...yes, she is still here, she is still connected to all of you, and what is more important she is more than ever connected to the Heavens. God has the speediest and most reliable connection working, and his system is never down.

Have you got "on line" with him lately?

Adrachin's fantastic voyage!

Thomas,
I just read your story, & I am so grateful for your sharing & want you to know that it touched me so deeply.
Thanks for being here & God bless.

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Time for an other episode.

There are a lot of stories about Atlantis and the civilisation before it named Hator. This was the time, when the earth structure was build and live was "seeded" on earth as a part of ALL THAT IS to expand the endlessnes of creation. It was known from the masters of time that the earth will go into some kind of "dark age". One name for that is Kaligula. If you study the ancient Sanskrit scriptures you will find the timeline for that.

Anyhow, the Atlantien culture was an advanced one. They had technology, star technology. They knew how to use the cosmic energy for heeling, movement, light, creating food and all of that. And they where in contact with the star people of other planetes as well.

When earth was just before entering the Kaligula field, the masters of time desided to hide all of that knowledge cause they knew, humans would not be able to control the star technology any more. So people where selected to spread around all over the earth and each one of them carried a bit of the knowledge to hide it on a save place.

Pyramides where placed all over the world to help earth to be adjusted in the cosmic field during this time of darkness. This pyramides are like ankers, fixing earth in the cosmic energie field. They build a grid so to say.

Then the big bang happend. In the bible it is known as the great flood. You can read the scriptures of the religions of the world and you will see, this is described everywhere.

After this big bang, people went into a unconcious state of existance.

Earth was fixed now into the planetary solarsystem which you can explore by reading something about astrology and astronomy. The thoughts of humans where so to say held on in this solar system. Like a projection. And the planetary structure of this solar system was storing them. This is know as the akasha cronic.

Some words about Egypt cause I know, a lot have a strong connection with this energy field. One of the ones selected to hide the knowledge of Atlantis was the one, bringing it to Egypt. But he did not hide it but used it to gain power. That's why this place is so magical. There where certain interuptions then cause of this one not hiding the knowledge. This missues of star technology nearly blew up this nice and wonderful planete earth. In order to correct this, the Masters of Time implemented different believe systems to adjust the energy again. One of them was the Hebrew one. An other major step was the implementation of the Christ Energy into the soul of the human-earth body. So to say.

There would be a lot more to say about all of that. But time has changed now. While a lot of humans are dreaming the never ending dream, the master builders of the universe have established an other grid into the earth body. The christal grid. And this has been activated on 3.May.2006. Together with that some changes in the movement of the solar systems where implemented in order to allow earth to re-connect to the source itselfe.

Heaven does not come to earth but earth is going into heaven now. So just wake up from the never ending dream so you will not miss this event!

Much Love and Light

Adrachin

Dear Adrachin, that is

Dear Adrachin, that is interesting what you say about bringing Earth closer to Heaven! Did you have Heavenletters' slogan in mind when you said that?

I understand and don't question your connection to Egypt. If you feel it, I believe you.

How do you know all the other material?

When are you coming back to work on the forum, Adrachin, dear?!

I myself do not look for such things as you do, dear. As God once said, "You have enough to do to take care of this lifetime."

I really don't grasp the benefit. It sounds complicated to me.

With love and blessings,

Gloria

Dear my dear Gloria,

When are you coming back to work on the forum, Adrachin, dear?!

I am here.

I knew, that Egypt would trigger some thoughts. In the moment of time this is now manifested.

You are in the hearts of hearts. Golden.

So don't mind. Time is a cosmic joke.

This forum is one of the nicest places to be.

It will expand.

5/3/06 what happened?

Adrachin,
What actually went on on May3, 2006? I would like details, as I am lost on this topic, & it sounds a little foreign & funky to me. I am definitely out of this loop.
Love,
Jennine

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Dear Gloria and Jannine,

some of the things I describe I am getting through remote viewing. And sometimes I am involved myself so I know about it.

Regarding May3, 2006, as said, this was the activation of the crystal grid. So what is that? And why now?

Since some times the earth is traveling in a new energy field also know as the photon belt. That is "why now". This energy was needed before the upliftment could be started.

In order to help earth to be lifted into heaven this new energy needed to be ancored on earth. The earth is a lifing being and so you can see that work as a kind of energy work. Just imagin the asian teaching about the human energy system. With meridians, chakras and all of that. The earth has a similar energy system. And this energy system needed to be attuned to a new frequency.

There are legions of angels and other etheric beings out there assisting the earth in this process. If you look onto the universe from an other perspective you can see different vibrating energy field flowting through it. Looks like this aurora borealises of the north but in different colors mixing with themself, moving and shifting producing different sounds so to say.

In a first step to change the earth freqency some portals have been established ancoring different frequencies in the heart of the earth. The second step was to establish a new grid to replace the old one represented by the old pyramid system. The new one is different. It's not in matter any more but has an etheric form. Make sense cause the earth is going to transmute to a kind of etheric being. So to establish the new grid in a matter form would be somehow contraproductive.

You may have heard about the crystal citys. An interesting story related to that can be read

here.

They look like that:

Lately one of them was seen in China by the people living there. It even was reported in the newspaper.

In this citys a lot of light engineers are living working on the adjustments of the earth frequencies. If you want to visit one of them, just ask your guids for a tour. People with a golden heart are always welcome!

Anyhow, after the cristal grid has been established the only thing was waiting, until the earth moves into the right conjunction to several frequency fields to activate it. And that was at May3, 2006.

I hope, that answers the questions.

Much Love and Light

Adrachin

Ps.: nearly forgot to mention, heavenletters plays it's part in changing the frequencies as well. But on an other level. It's affecting the human conciousness field. And that is very important! The more people go into their heart of gold and activate it, the easier it will be for the earth.

Hello. I had a religious

Hello. I had a religious awakening, as far as I was concerned. I was told it was the end of the world, and I was an angel. I know it sounds stupid, but I haven't been the same person since then, very different than I used to be. I can also feel a godlike (hopefully that's what it is) presence since then. I've also experienced chronic synchronicity. It's like my mind is controlling what's on tv and the radio. Whatever I think, is re-worded by means of a tv or radio, and then there is a response back to me. I also seem to have an invisible spirit that fills me with love, whenever I think of anything to do with love. I am confused as to why this is happening to ME?

crystal cities &amp; remote viewing

Adrachin,
Who can I ask to help me see these crystal cities for myself?
Love,

Love prevails.
I have all I need. I have no complaints whatsoever.

What do we have to see them

What do we have to see them for?

I just don't really get it.

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Archangel Michael in his message through Ronna Herman talks about the Light Cities. I wonder if they are the same thing as the Crystal Cities you talk about?
http://www.ronnastar.com/latestMay06.htm
Paula

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Yes, my dear Paula, it's the same.

And Jennine, as said, just ask your Guardians. They will lead you. And give you a tour around the citys. I remember, when I was going into one of them the first time. There was a long stairway. Leading to a big portal. White and really big. And then it was opend. And I was asked to come in. It was a feeling of awe. And then I stepped in.

Some angel like beings welcomed me and I needed to wrench. Then I was lead to a pool of cristal water where I was washed and cleaned. After that they gave me some white robe and told me to follow. We went through city. Wonderful. Joyess people all around me. Loving hearts. Everyone. They just where shining from the buttom of their heart. Ever seen pictures of Jesus with a bright shimmering light emanating from the heart? That's how they looked like. Finally we arrived in a big hall. Then some kind of absolut energy flowted through me. Feelt like decomposition. And then tears. So much tears. I went down on my knees. And didn't want to lift my head to see, who is there. Until a soft touch. And some soft voice:

"You are welcome, my friend. We waited a long time for you. And now you are finally here. Thank you for coming."

After a eternity I asked, who are you?

And he said, "I AM Sanat Kumara. The earth logos. And now stand up, my friend. We are ONE. You are here to get lot's of information. To bring them to earth. To bring them into menkind. We, ALL THAT IS appreciate a lot, what you are doing. You are known. In Heaven. Cause you are in Heaven. And now receive."

Then in a sudden my inner ey connected to his inner ey and an information stream was transfered.

Can you imagin to get transfered the knowledge of the existanze of matter in a second?

It nearly blowed up my mind and I only wanted to stay there. But he told me, "no my friend, you need to go back. We need you as a ambassador on earth. You need to go back and tell the people on earth about ALL THAT IS. And we need you as a channel to bring the heart of gold into the dark minds of menkind. You life on earth to enlighten the thoughts and minds of them."

After that, we had a nice fest celebrating ALL THAT IS. Nice musik. Wonderful people. And then it was time to leave. He gave me a big hug and told me, never forget that. Tell it. Be. On Earth, ambassador.

And I went back to earth. Slowly and softly I was guarded back into "real time".

So this is the message.

We are all ONE. ALL THAT IS.

Much Love and Light

Ambassador

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Dear Adrachin,
I think this is beautiful! Yet I must also say that I think this is your path and your experience. I'm so happy that I didn't feel envious of you when I read your story, as for years I've been asking WHY I couldn't see, or hear, or have these extraordinary experiences. Now I know that this is my own path. Maybe I promised to 'get there' without any of this, just to raise my consciousness from human to divine without any extraordinary things happening to me. I don't know. It doesn't matter now. God knows how and where I am going.
I think yesterday's Heavenletter put this just perfectly (with perfect timing as well):

HEAVEN #2047 Great Spiritual Experiences

How wonderful that you experience another realm from time to time, find yourself transported, find yourself with amazing experiences, something to write home about. These spiritual experiences have an affect on you, and yet you have to get up from them, or they will delay your arrival. They are already past, and you know not to live in the past. You know to keep going.

You have your own wonderful path to walk and everyone of us has theirs.
This is the extraordinary design of God.
Paula

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Dear my dear Paula,

indeed, God's path is unknown. But I know, you are a wonderful being. With a lot of Love. What you see and what you feel is special. You are a radiator of ALL THAT IS.

And as said, asking the personal Guardian to help to lead into one of this citys will give everyone the opportunity to visit them.

I am not special. We are not special. We ARE ONE.

Loving hug.......

Hi;
 
I just wanted to say that I had a similar experience almost 30 years ago, when all that knowledge of materiality came to me in a flash.  I always called it "Cosmic Consciousness."

the quiet, peaceful experiences are the ones that take
us the farthest on our journeys.

Questions to ask yourself about your spiritual adventure

Perhaps you think of two or three turning points.

My 'turning points' were: 1. A few times when my self - esteem was enhanced growing up so that I could join the society and become more confident of my abilities more.
2. Becoming a mother and knowing unconditional love.
3. Meeting the true love of my life and knowing again unconditional giving.
4. Finding myself physically alone when his body died 2 years ago.

Or maybe a single phrase someone said once, and you have never forgotten it, and somehow it may have influenced you spiritually.

That single phrase for me was when I accidentally stepped upon a stranger's sunglasses on the grass in a park and broke them. I apologized expecting to have to wear his wroth and to pay for them. He said to me: "If what you have done has not hurt another on purpose, then it does not matter and it is not worth getting upset about." Before that, I was used to being abused and 'sweating the small stuff' so to speak.
Another single phrase would be when my man, David said to me: "The only person's opinion I care about in regards to what they think of me , is yours. Anyone else can go jump." I felt so loved.

Maybe your path was clear. Or maybe it had unexpected twists and turns.

My path has not ever been clear but always I feel as if I have known what it is deep in my being.

What are three dominant experiences you have had that may have been pointing to God?

When I was at one of my lowest points, and David was brought into my life.

Is your understanding now different from your view of the actual experience at the time?

When David left me here in body alone, I still feel very much alone but until recently when I had to make a choice of how to go on (bitter or grateful), have I been able to see what a gift our love was and how much being with him here even for a short time as it was, has taught me about myself and others and why I am here.

Mirror

What a beautiful spiritual journey you have had!

How unconditional love presented itself. And how even the physical death of your most beloved is turning you even closer to God and yourself. I applaud you for your choice, Mirror.

I loved the comment that the man made when you stepped on his sunglasses. Marvelous. And you always remembered.

I wanted to read more! It ended too soon! Will you tell us more?

Blessings and love,

Gloria

my journey

I thank you Gloria.
I am unsure how to continue though.
When I was a little girl, I remember sitting on my back steps talking to my knees marveling at how nice they were. Not sure why but maybe I was just still getting used to having a body again?
I used to watch the ants and how they seemed lost and when they bumped into each other would just change tact and go the other way.
We do that. We don't mostly want to engage with the persons we meet.
Anyway, I was a shy introverted little girl surrounded by dominant personalities but when I was 8 I contracted encephalitis from a mosquito biting my inner ear and literally went a bit mad for a month or so and lost control of my legs. However, I had dreams and I feel now that they were dreams of David's life he was living at the time. Do not know for sure, but once we were together and he would tell me all the things that had happened to him I noted dates and years and it fitted.
I was given a boy doll that xmas and had to name it David.
I am not sure whether my desire for David to be connected to me is so strong that I imagine all these things but I always had a need to go to USA and once the first opportunity came my way, I took it. At the time, it was marrying an American I had been in a relationship with but I knew I did not love him but still went along with the flow of it all and the 'going to live in USA' part of it drove me along.
I did not consciously feel all of this at the time, but looking back (even before knowing David for real) , I knew this was my motivation. Just didn't know why.
So many little things I feel were driving me towards finding him for 44 years. So many.
I work with children who have an intellectual disability mainly Autism. I have done so for 23 years. I am good at working and guiding and teaching them but I rely on my intuition to 'know' them more than what I was taught to do or how the system works for me to do.
I know that most of the time, something is guiding me to know them in this way and they sense it inside of me.
All the things I have done, are doing and have become in my life (and I would imagine this is the same for us all) have been for a reason. No coincidences and no hunches which are not guides and from the 'real' world of spirit.
My children have come to me to help them through their lives for a reason too. They struggle and are not living 'normal' lives really and have chosen the hard road most of the time. It is frustrating as a mother because you want your babies to be safe and happy and not experience the rough. However, their rough is what is making them grow and as I stand by and watch and worry, I know that I am the only one best for the job of being their mother and that is why they chose me.
They are 28 and 24 now but still I fret for them.
David has taught me the most though. His journey in his life before we physically talked and met was majorly horrific and varied and then all of a sudden he let it all go and came to me. I went through many insecurities of why he would do that and his behaviour was not outwardly as if he was 'head over heels in love" either so it baffled me. To an outsider, he was perhaps taking advantage of me or the whole relationship and how it had evolved was perhaps not 'done' in their eyes no matter how happy I seemed. However, even though he never spoken in this way, I know that he knew he could totally trust me and I would never let him down and so he also knew he knew me and loved me. This scared him but he did know it.
It never scared me but I was more into the spiritual awareness of such things at the time than he was.
I do feel as if I have let him down though in the end and for many reasons but I have to trust the universe and know that again, all things happened for a good reason and he had to go and grow and live as spirit now.
My life is richer for having known him and for having known others too.
My parents, especially my father is another example. I am so proud to have been his daughter and through our lives, we do connect with people of whom we can say this.
So lucky or blessed to have been able to even be around them.
Angels maybe who have come into our lives for help and support and of course the too easily used but not used enough for the right reasons.............word of LOVE.

I used to have great fun

I used to have great fun frightening my sister by making the bedroom door knob turn. I could tell who liked me and who didn’t, who was kind and who wasn’t. I thought everybody could.
I knew what people were thinking, where they were going, and why etc, again I thought everyone could.

But my life changed when my dad came home from the armed services for good, I was 9yrs old and I closed down.

I married when I was 17 and had 4 children.

It wasn’t until my youngest, my daughter, was 12, I wanted to grow herbs and make my own creams, lotions etc, but hubby was too helpful and they died thru kindness.

Next it was essential oils, I joined classes, but couldn’t massage cos my fingers and thumbs were too painful.

Then daughter bought some crystals when on holiday and I was hooked.
I bought books, learnt about chakras, learnt to meditate, I was sooo hungry for knowledge about everything spiritual, holistic.

I was at work and had befriended a new employee, she came to work one Monday morning high as a kite. Jumping up and down she told me she had had a reiki attunement and I had to have one too, so I did. And I never looked back

I changed so much I didn’t recognise myself! I showed my love without fear of being snubbed, I spoke my truth without fear of being ridiculed, I was opening up again.

I met my guide and I met the angels.

I had my master attunement in August 2003.

Late 2004, I started feeling strange, odd things were happening to me, I felt too tall, I shook all the time, I cried and cried, I didn’t recognise people or objects, couldn’t read, words looked like unintelligible squiggles and I forgot how to spell.

Not all at once I must add lol.

I was driving one day at what I thought was the normal speed and a cycle overtook me!

I found I could accompany earthbound souls to the Light, such a humbling experience.

I left my husband of 37yrs in 2005, I had to be alone, I needed space and he wouldn’t give it to me. This sounds really harsh, but that is how it was. At the time I was spending as much time as I could in motel rooms, just reading, sending healing to those who asked for it and meditating, sometimes I never ate cos I forgot.

I spend most of my spare time talking/listening to others on the internet, sending healing, meditating and praying for world peace and whatever else I am drawn to do to help our world and all who share it.

I

I was raised with a mix of

I was raised with a mix of traditional Christianity and metaphysics. In my life I've vacillated from extremism to I don'tcareism : ). My search began in earnest in my early 20s after an extremely negative spiritual experience. However, all things happen for a reason and I set out in earnest to find "the truth." I went to many different churches, joined a religious cult, and continued to study and search. I don't regret my time in any of the churches or religions I've been with. They all helped me a great deal in some way. After a divorce and battling extreme depression, for the first time in my life, I didn't feel God could hear me. I felt very alone. Very black space. However, after being in that spot for awhile, I tired of the great pain and decided that it was time to heal one way or another. I tried medication, counseling, etc. None of it worked for me. I felt isolated. I then picked up a book by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale- The Power of Positive Thinking. It pointed me back to God in a non-threatening way. I was really able to "hear" that book and internalize it. I studied it like a textbook and wanted more as I started to feel better. I read all the books I could by Dr. Peale and then started reading Louise Hay and positive affirmations. Using positive affirmations w/ positive thinking started turning my life around and my spirit started to progress hugely. I started to "wake up." I started to understand things like "gratitude" "laws of attraction" and I realized that God never stopped hearing me, but I was so full of negativity that I was unable to hear God. As I started to peel away the negativity like layers of an onion, I started to see myself more clearly. I started to see areas that I needed to change to be who I really was meant to be. I kept reading everything I could get my hands on and my healing and my spiritual evolution was taking place quickly. I began to meditate and hearing God became exceedingly easy. I began to journal and so much understanding started coming into my life. Now I have realized the "truth" is within me. I no longer feel the extreme need to read every new book that comes along or to go to every new seminar. Yes, I still like that stuff but it's not a driving need anymore. I enjoy studying and learning about other religions and schools of thought and taking the truths they hold for me and internalizing it into my life. I now don't feel a need to understand the entire akasha (all knowledge) right now. I am just happy "being." For me, my spiritual journey has landed me w/ the basic concept of love, compassion, and kindness. If I can be those qualities more and more that is my religion. I am interested in all the great masters that have walked the earth and I am still an evolving spirit.

So, the most significant spiritual experience I've had was initially a negative one that propelled me into a deep search for meaning. The second most significant thing that forced spiritual growth was going through my divorce and that pain and coming out of it. The people who've most influence my path are my mother, Dr. Peale, and all the wonderful and loving compassionate masters that have walked the earth and left us their teachings.

I don't have the same questions as I did when starting out my search. At first I wanted to know things like is God a trinity? Was the virgin birth a reality? Now, those questions were just the very top layer of the onion. I'm at the core layer now w/ the deeper questions like how can I be more compassionate? Am I living what I truly believe? How can I give more love to those around me? The other questions are completely unimportant to me at this stage of my journey.

Messengers of Divine Presence/God/Great Spirit/Divine Spirit

Thank you Gloria for being a messenger of Divine Presence/God/Great Spirit/Divine Spirit like a chick a dee in a tree singing messages that we wouldn't have known otherwise.

May others sing their own messages passing on the Super Fantastic News, you are more than you know, you are here to learn, grow and share.

“Established in wholeness, in the state of calmness, of inner peace, perform action.” Ancient Vedic text of India

Every person that has come into the world has come for a greater purpose, on a mission sent from God. This purpose and mission are kept sacred within a deeper intelligence in each person, an intelligence called Knowledge. Personal intellect, which has been conditioned and shaped by your experience in the world, cannot gain access to this mission and purpose for it is held sacred and inviolable within you. It must be called out of you by forces from beyond yourself, by circumstances in the world, by key and important relationships. For the calling here is to serve the world, not merely to enlighten yourself, not merely to put yourself in the position of extreme happiness and contentment.

At the outset people often experience Knowledge as intuition. They have insights. They have foreknowings about things. They sense things are wrong. They are drawn to other things. They are drawn away from some things. And yet these inclinations are rarely valued and followed. And it is unfortunate because this is God trying to help you, to guide you, to protect you from error, to counsel you not to give yourself to your next great pursuit in life, and to give you a sense that your life already has a true meaning and direction, a true purpose and expression. In a sense, you need to get out of the way so that it can emerge within you. You need to begin to listen patiently and take the steps that Knowledge within you will give you to take without trying to define the outcome, without trying to determine the direction, without trying to control the process.

Thank you, Buster. Have

Thank you, Buster. Have missed you.

I love the image of a chick a dee in a tree! I think we're all high up in a tree, and there is no getting down!

You express yourself beautifully.

God bless you. With love, Gloria
