ACIM AND SEEING

A Course in Miracles has seemed to have complitely awoken me. It's like I knew all this about Spirituality but now I get the true nature of it.
To simplify it, I knew all these rules about "football", the playes, rules and the players - but it was nothing until I saw it played.
That's how I feel about this Book.

I do think the flu was the final step of purification as I ran into this book right after healing.
My new guide also after the flu told me this has been long way coming. And that lately I have been given all I need to take this next step. he put it in way that I am right at the edge of a cliff face, the next step is to to the air. A step to a place that cannot exist and and uphold you if you have fears. If you have illusion of the physical protecting you.

It was monday for the first time that I took the next step - and suprise there are always more steps. ;)

Just as there is no beginnings, there are no ends - there is only right Now.

I'm quite exited that my vibrations lifted and that this book is now what I am studying so that I can learn what it is that I am here to do, and how to do it.

First words from A Course in Miracles:

This is A Course In Miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum.
It means only that you can elect what you want to take at a given time.
The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance.
The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.
This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:
Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.

SAINT GERMAINS BOOK ON ALCHEMY

Saint Germain on Alchemy: Formulas for Self-Transformation

It's an online book, missing few pages along the way - put still a good read.

Who is Saint Germain?

Saint Germain is Chohan of the Seventh Ray, the violet ray, of freedom, alchemy, justice, mercy and transmutation. He is the sponsor of the United States of America and the hierarch of the age of Aquarius, who comes bearing the gift of the violet flame for world change. He tutors and initiates souls in mastery of the seat-of-the-soul chakra, preparing them to receive the Holy Spirit’s gifts of prophecy and the working of miracles.

Two of his well-known embodiments were Christopher Columbus and Merlin the magician, a spiritual adept who has unfortunately been mythologized. In a series of recent embodiments from the prophet Samuel to Francis Bacon, Saint Germain was the all-pervasive mind, laying the empirical foundation for an age of enlightenment, pushing back the barriers of limitation in the physical and spiritual sciences. As Roger Bacon he directed and inspired devotees of the sacred science, then in his embodiment as Saint Germain, the Wonderman of Europe, he out pictured the quintessence of the alchemists’ dream for all to see.

The Ascended Master Saint Germain teaches that the highest alchemy is the transformation of one’s human consciousness into the divinity of the Higher Self. He stands ready to assist all souls in this endeavour. He has also said he would release the technology of the Aquarian age when the nations shall have put behind them the destructive uses of science and religion to accept the challenge which lies at the heart of both, which is for man to enter his heart and the nucleus of the atom and to harness from both the unlimited spiritual and physical resources to establish the golden age.

His etheric retreats are located over Transylvania in Romania and Table Mountain in Wyoming.

LINK TO ASCENDED MASTERS

Ascended Lady Master Nada tutors souls in mastering these qualities in the solar-plexus chakra, and helps them prepare to receive the Holy Spirit’s gifts of speaking in tongues and interpretation of tongues. In addition, she is known as the unifier of families and twin flames. The word Nada means the voice of the silence, and also a receding of the personality into the nothingness, giving way to the Christ Self. Nada is a Messenger of the Lord Meru and received training in His retreat. She is of the Third Ray. Nada has a certain cosmic authority for the incoming age. Healing is one of Her actions or services to mankind. She is one Who directs healing to the mankind of Earth. She uses a Pink Flame for some of Her work. Nada is a member of the Karmic Board and represents the Third Ray in that body. Her symbol is a pink rose.

http://www.lightascension.com/arts/Ascended%20Master.htm

Nada also serves on the Karmic Board—a group of eight ascended masters and cosmic beings who dispense justice to this system of worlds, adjudicating karma, mercy and judgment on behalf of every soul. Through both these offices in the Great White Brotherhood (chohan and member of the Karmic Board), she teaches the path of personal Christhood by expressing love through ministration and service to life. She assists ministers, missionaries, healers, teachers, psychologists, counsellors at law, professional people, public servants in government as well as those devoted to serving the needs of people in every branch of human and health services. You will also find her at the side of businessmen and -women, blue-collar, skilled and unskilled workers, farmers, ranchers, defenders of freedom and revolutionaries of love in every field.

In Atlantis Nada served as a priestess in the Temple of Love. In other embodiments, she was a lawyer and expert in the defence of oppressed souls. In her final incarnation 2,700 years ago, Nada was the youngest of a large family of exceptionally gifted children. Archangel Charity appeared to her at an early age and taught her how to draw God's love from the flame in her heart and to radiate it into the nature kingdom for the blessing of all life. He also taught her to radiate it into the chakras of her brothers and sisters, so that by a heightened inner awareness they might bless others and uplift earth’s culture through the arts.

Lady Master Nada’s etheric retreat is located over Saudi Arabia.

QUOTES FROM A COURSE IN MIRACLES

The correction lies in accepting what is true in YOURSELF, by bringing ALL that you are into light. (Helen fearful of writing next part.) Cacey was wrong about Possession, and he was also wrong about hurting himself. One of the major problems with miracle workers is that they are so sure that what they are doing is right, because they KNOW it stems from love, that they do not pause to let ME establish MY limits.

While what he (Cacey) did came from Me, he could NOT be induced to ask me each time whether I wanted him to perform this PARTICULAR miracle. If he had, he would not have performed any miracles that could not get through constructively, and would thus have saved himself unnecessary strain. He burned himself out with indiscriminate miracles, and to this extent did not fulfill his own full purpose, and was also subject to the Scribal error I mentioned at the start. The Disciples were also prone to this.

The answer is NEVER perform a miracle without asking me IF you should. This spares you from exhaustion, and because you act under direct communication the trance becomes unnecessary. Because miracles are expressions of love, it does NOT follow that they will always be effective. I am the only one who can perform miracles indiscriminately, because I AM the Atonement. You have a ROLE in Atonement, which I will dictate TO you.

- Christ, A Course in Miracles

A miracle is a correction factor introduced into false thinking by ME.
It acts as a catalyst, shaking up erroneous perception and snapping it into place.
This correction factor places man under the Atonement principle, where his perception is healed.
Until this has occurred, perception of the Divine Order is impossible.

My part in Atonement is the cancelling out of all errors that you could not otherwise corret. Whe you have been restored to the recognition of your original state, you naturally become a part of the atonement yourself. (Niina's: As to Atone is to Undo the Absence of Love, to me this passage means "Place love to where there is too little. Love those who have been wronged to atone the lack of love left by other's physical thoughts and actions.")

The soul is in a state of grace forever.
Man's reality is ONLY his soul.
Therefore,man is in a state of Grace forever.

- Christ, A Course in Miracles

LETTER FROM MY HIGHER SELF

Life proved yet again that that only I can change the state of my current existence.
I wasn't feeling to spiffy yesterday, literally egging myself on during the morning with fears, anxioty, expectations of good and bad. Making plans to counter act the bad. Feeling all the pain from the past from three or four years ago.

I did regocnize it, I wanted to stop it - I tried thinking there is no past, there is only Now, hence Future doesn't matter Right Now. It wasn't helping too much, a short term pain releaver.

It wasn't until I flipped through a quote in A Course in Miracles.

"Prayer is the medium of miracles. It is means of communication of the created with the Creator. Through prayer love is received, and through miracles love is expressed." A Course in Miracles

This is what pulled me out of my "depressed" state this morning. Communicate with your Higher Self to be able to Love. So I wrote myself a letter from my Higher Self to me at my sad state. And I felt great after, prefectly in the Now.

Here is the letter: (written from first word on with a smile on my lips.)

"I forgive you for being afraid, for feeling heavy and sad.
I know that deep inside you, you know none of this real.
You know the is no merit in your past, that in truth there is no past,
hence you know nothing causes you to feel subpressed.
I know that you know that there is no point in looking into the future
wether in hope or despair as that is Nothing.
I forgive you for slipping and I guide you with love to the Now,
where you know you are happy, weightless and free.
I forgive you for turning your cheek to your Higher Self,
knowing it is easy to turn back, and that this is already away from the Now.
Know that you are forever loved by me."

It made such a difference, I was immediately comforted, and not by something out of my existence but me myself.

DEEP RELAXATION MEDITATION

I am sharing a Meditation I did this morning - feel free to use it, and modify it - repeat which part you feel you need to fully relax that part of the body. And don't worry wither your finger untouch during the meditation that is one of the ways to draw in energy throught the 'portals' of your palms.

Sit comfortably in the lotus position, your back straight, hands relazed on your knees, palms up, thumb and index finger touching gently.

Close your eyes and inhale through your nose, slowly, exhale through your nose, slowly.

Experience the Chakras new awakening, each shining bright in their own color.
Kundalini energy arising coiling around the bright light of your chakras all the way to the top of your head, from where it flows like a fountain back around you to your Root Chakra again - ever flowing. Let the Kundalini energy raise your vibration higher - understanding it awakens you to new pathways, possibilities and connection to the Unseen World.

Here is where angels, guides and ascended master may approuch you in light or form. Accept their advice and words - or maybe just the smile and love their presence ignisiates within you.

When you are ready to return to your human body existence - breath deeply, strengthen your aura with your new Light and remember what your body feels like. Open your eyes. Thank if you wish... I always do.

ON MY MEDITATION JOURNEY

I remember the first time I tried meditation... I could not hold still, my whole body protested this new thing with itches, jerks, uncomfortable feelings in muscles. And my attention spand was a whopping 2 minutes.
Luckily as I searched more about Meditation I learned that this is common with beginners. The body, the ego are put off by this new thing that is stripping time and awareness from them.
I came across a mention that to overcome this is to in a way challenge yourself. To know you are doing it right is to do this persistantly until you no longer react or give attention to any twitching.
When you are doing it right is when absolutely nothing gets your attention, not jerks or dogs that come sniff you.
Eventually I passed - took me about a few days to be and not be-in-attention to myself.

Next big step was visualisation - what a hoot that was! And tough to begin with. My guide notes said that to begin was to sit in the lotus position (legs gently crossed, spine straight, hands on your thighs/knees, palms up, breathing deeply but gently) and look at an apple infront your eyes, then close your eyes and invision the apple infront of you. Turn the apple look at it from all the angles. This was easy - as I have always had a good imagination.
Next step was to create a rose, without having an example. This was harded, and as I did manage to make a rose - on close inspection it was just a thought of a rose look-a-like, it literally took almost a week to create a visualisation with life, petals, and scent and texture that was a as real if not more real than in the world of forms and atoms.
But after that meditation has been amazing - I see so much, in such vibrant colors.

Ofcourse visualization is the most important thing you have to be accustomed to, to be a Channeller (use to be called medium).
I probably would have not been that succesful in channeling my quides if I didn't have such a vivid imagination and newly acquired skills in visualization. It sure made it easier to begin with. But how I started channelling is whole different topic. So back to meditation...

There are two types of meditation.
First is being still silent, without thought- simply being present, breathing and detaching. It is Zen, it is Buddhist.Then there is the Second kind where you vision, hear, feel and explore your Higher Self, help your body to live in a human form.
I love both deeply, they both have their use.

When I am at stress, in anger or in desperation the Vision Meditation reminds me that all things happen for a reason in our human form, peace and happiness the opposite of my fearful state is only few breaths away.

And the Still Meditation connects me to my essence, where I am not human I am energy unattached for emotions and feeling and exist to be pure lightness and light.


I've been meditating since I was 16 and I cannot imagine my life without it.

MEDITATION IS EASY

Simple first steps to Sahaja Yoga Meditation.

First you need to know what Kundalini is.
Kundalini is coiled (like the pharmacetical staff) energy pilar at the core of you, surrounding your chakras. It is dormant when you you are focused on the world with your ego (the past, and future hold your attention, instead of the Now). And it is awakened by you, or on its own.
When awakened it is powerful, moving force in you that no longer sees nothing that hinders your Awakening and Enlightenment.

A COURSE IN MIRACLES PART.1

A Course in Miracles has been for years on my list of books to read.
I even tried it once but I wasn't ready. I ended up not having time and energy to delve into it.

A Course in Miracle was channelled, scribed. The information came through Sananda Maitreya also called Son of God, Jesus Christ and ascended master very well known to humanity.

But I came across a 10 page print with Lessons 51 - 60 in sort of clift notes.
And it absolutely resonated with me on a whole new level.

I believe this is because I am finally comfortable with God and Son of God, and know what they mean. I use to be stuck on the bible terms and it threw me off the book.
Now I can read it, now that i know what god and Jesus mean to me.

To me God is... I am God, You are God, We are God. Our Higher Self the part of us that is pure, light and connected to absolutely everything on earth is God. As our Higher Selves are connected to everything we are also connected to each other's Higher Selves forming God.

To me Jesus (Son of God/Sananda) is... Humanity, Me, You, Us. Our Human form is the collective of Son of God. Half of me possible to connect to my Higher Self through spiritual awareness and half of me in the throws of my ego, my mind and my thoughs. All of us in our human form make Son of God.

With this in mind ---

Lesson 51
1 Nothing I see means anything. 2 The reason this is so is that I see nothing and nothing has no meaning. 3 It is nessacery that I recognize this, that I may learn to see. 4 What I think I see now is taking place of vision. 5 I must let it go by realizing it has no meaning, so that vision may take its place.

What I got from this is... 4. Seeing things without being present. 5 Be still, Be in the NOW to see.

With this in mind I looked around online and gathered this for a Free .PDF read:

LUCIFER - LIGHT OR DARKNESS?

Lucifer, The Bearer of Light of God, gets such a bad rap.
I have to say I have never believed in Satan or the Devil. Not even as a child or teen when development is all about fear. ( I feared spiders instead. ;) ) I'm not sure if i believed in God either, going to church with school was always something that bored me to no end. it wasn't until I was 13 when I started to understand that Love, God and Light were the same.
These days I know a whole lot about how religion, spirituality and hierarchy match together.
And it is because of that, and the extent of my knowledge of Love and Spirituality that I really have been interested in knowing about Lucifer.

He seems to be a taboo. To mention him is to talk of evil - which I find sad.

I know there are two schools of thought.
One with Fear - Lucifer is the Fallen Angel, Satan, polar entity to Archangel Michael.
One of Light - Luficer is the bearer of God's Light, who never fell from grace and stand next to Michael as his beloved brother.

The Light in me recognizes that Luficer as being of light. A beautiful light an Archangel in his own right, loving, caring, full of Light - which also makes him very powerful. Vessel for light always are.

Just like Mary Magdalena was dupped "The Sinful Woman", a prostitute, a whore - because interpeters of the bible mixed up two Marys together.
Perhaps that is where Luficer got pushed down to rule Hell.

I think careful looking around about Luficer is in order.

Next quote is from one of the lone websites I found where Lucifer isn't automatically the Devil or Satan.

Lucifer means lightbringer, from the Latin lux “light” and ferre “to bear or bring.” The word Lucifer is found in only one place in the Bible — Isaiah 14:12 — but only in the King James and related versions: “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! . . .” The New Revised Standard Version translates the same passage as “How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, Son of Dawn!” In other translations we find: “O shining star of the dawn!”(Moffatt) or “O morning-star, son of the dawn!” (Hebrew Bible). The King James Version is based on the Vulgate, the Latin translation of Jerome. Jerome translated the Hebrew helel (bright or brilliant one) as “lucifer,” which was a reasonable Latin equivalent. And yet it is this lucifer, the bright one or lightbearer, that came to be understood by so many as the name for Satan, Lord of Darkness.

From: http://earthsnewdawn.com/2009/the-truth-about-lucifer/

Valentine’s Jewish Encyclopedia confirms the idea that there is a radical difference between how Satan is conceived in the Old Testament and how he is conceived in the New Testament, and that his new role did not develop from his original role: there are no references to rebellious angels in any pre-Christian book. . . . The figure of Satan in the Hebrew Bible and in the New Testament respectively emphasizes the difference in conception. There is no development, but basic difference... It is only in Christian literature that the Persian idea of two opposing empires, with Satan as God’s enemy, has persisted (Valentine’s Jewish Encyclopedia, A. M. Hyamson & A. M. Silberman eds., Shapiro, Valentine & Co, London, 1938, p. 36).

And then there is this longer passage from in Isaiah 14:12

"When the Lord has given you rest from your pain and turmoil and the hard service with which you were made to serve, you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon: How the oppressor has ceased! How his insolence has ceased! … How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low! You said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit on the mount of assembly on the heights of Zaphon; I will ascend to the tops of the clouds, I will make myself like the Most High." But you are brought down to Sheol, to the depths of the Pit. Those who see you will stare at you, and ponder over you: "Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms, who made the world like a desert and overthrew its cities, who would not let his prisoners go home?"

The passage refers to the king of Babylon, a man who seemed all-powerful, but who has been brought down to the abode of the dead ("Sheol"). Isaiah promises that the Israelites will be freed and will then be able to use in a taunting song against their oppressor the image of the Morning Star, which rises at dawn as the brightest of the stars, outshining Jupiter and Saturn, but lasting only until the sun appears. This image was used in an old popular Canaanite story that the Morning Star tried to rise high above the clouds and establish himself on the mountain where the gods assembled, in the far north, but was cast down into the underworld.

We all make up our own mind - decide for ourselves.

THE DIDACHE

Watching another Robert Beckford's show about The Secret Family of Jesus and at the end he goes to see the Earliest Christian's handbook called The Didache. I viewed the first page and loved it.

WORDS POINT TO THE TRUTH

Words are pointers to the truth, not the truth itself.
Just like a sign guiding you to Bristol, it isn't Bristol itself.

What this means is there is no one truth, words cannot explain, especially spirituality, the language you want them to because all words are tied to the physical world, and hence explain physical world. In spirituality they are signs, pointing to the meaning your soul knows, when it is open.

WHAT ARE WE?

We are what we defend. We are what we stand up for.

SIMPLICITY

PEARLS FROM THE RETREAT

ECKHART TOLLE did a weekend retreat at FINDHORN in Scotland. A gorgeous sacred place! And it was captured on DVD.

I got the DVD from the library this week - and as I had to spend yesterday home because of getting ill I put it on the player.

I haven't heard Eckhart Tolle speak before and it surprised me especially in the beginning how slow he speaks - but after getting use to of his rhythm, I got to the listening.

I think the idea at the very top of my mind right now after sleeping on the 2h lecture is this:
There is always only NOW. You can never reach back to the past, and no matter how much you try, and plan, the future you will never have it. Cause you can only exist in the Now.
He asked very wisely "What is wrong right now?" If you think about it, you'll realise all problems we think about (and we think about our problems A LOT I tell you) are in the future - I got to go see the doctor tomorrow, I have to sign to declare bankrupcy with my lawyer next week, mom's gonna visit this evening I have to clean.What is wrong right now? - Well... Nothing I suppose, I'm here alive, sitting, feeling the energy of the moment pass in me.

Our head want us to think, our ego-self wants us to think, to be right, to challenge, to complain (boy does it love to complain! Be aware of complaining, it only makes you feel superior to the target for a moment before you feel worse than some one else does (he gives an example where you are talking to a professor who wows you with "knowledge" and fancy words you your ego feels 'damn I'm so stupid, he's much more smarter than me - but I am more beautiful' It's a vicious cycle)).
Our soul, our essence of being, the part of us that is connected to all life on earth wants us to Be Present. Be open to nature, love, the earth without the thinking that is ego's job.

I'll clear that a little - there is nothing wrong with thinking as long as we recognise that they are just scattering thoughts, just words, labels, stamps we but on things.

Tree is a tree.
Why?

Because it is off wood (another stamp), it has branches (another stamp) that have leaves (another stamp) that are green cause they have chlorophyll (fancy stamp ;) ). The thing about thoughts is we "think" we have to have them all the time, hence they move like rabbits down the field being chased by a hungry fox. Like such after thoughts of seeing tree - And you know I have seen these and everyone calls them trees, and this one is like aunt Maggie's old oak tree in the back yard, hmm, aunt Maggie was bit weird of a character, oh and her third husband Billy man I hate him always with the 'you'll never be good to do anything' speeches.
So now you have seen the tree and remember how much Uncle Billy brought you down.
That is the ego-self thinking.

Click to enlarge

Then we have your essence, which sits by the tree, marvels it, its beauty without specification - doesn't want anything of the life in front of it. Being present in the company of something so connected to life and earth that is free of ego is simply Stillness. There is no judgement - there is no battle of the egos (who's smarter, prettier, cleaner, more right, less wrong, obvious, dim and such and such...). Just you, the singing of the birds, the wind tugging at your hair, the life flow between you and the living tree in front of you. That is stillness, that is where happiness is.

Be Present.

THE NOW - THE FUTURE

Future will always be in the future,

Not getting what you want...

FORBIDDEN ARCHEOLOGY & HIDDEN HISTORY

I just found a new book online - started it and like it.

So - of course it'll be seen here too:

HIDDEN HISTORY OF THE HUMAN RACE (Read Online)

Here is some from the Foreword:

Foreword by Graham Hancock (Author of Fingerprints of the Gods)

It is my great pleasure and honor to introduce this abridged edition of Forbidden Archeology. Let me say at the outset that I believe this book to be one of the landmark intellectual achievements of the late twentieth century. It will take more conservative scholars a long while, probably many years, to come to terms with the revelations it contains. Nevertheless, Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson have put the revelations out there and the clock cannot now be turned back. Sooner or later, whether we like it or not, our species is going to have to come to terms with the facts that are so impressively documented in the pages that follow, and these facts are stunning.

Cremo and Thompson's central proposition is that the model of human prehistory, carefully built-up by scholars over the past two centuries, is sadly and completely wrong. Moreover, the authors are not proposing that it can be put right with minor tinkering and adjustments. What is needed is for the existing model to be thrown out the window and for us to start again with open minds and with absolutely no preconceptions at all.

This is a position that is close to my own heart; indeed it forms the basis of my book Fingerprints of the Gods. There, however, my focus was exclusively on the last 20,000 years and on the possibility that an advanced global civilization may have flourished more than 12,000 years ago only to be wiped out and forgotten in the great cataclysm that brought the last Ice Age to an end.

In The Hidden History of the Human Race Cremo and Thompson go much further, pushing back the horizons of our amnesia not just 12,000 or 20,000 years, but millions of years into the past, and showing that almost everything we have been taught to believe about the origins and evolution of our species rests on the shaky foundation of academic opinion, and on a highly selective sampling of research results. The two authors then set about putting the record straight by showing all the other research results that have been edited out of the record during the past two centuries, not because there was anything wrong or bogus about the results themselves, but simply because they did not fit with prevailing academic opinion.

DESTRUCTION OF ATLANTIS

The Destruction of Atlantis: Compelling Evidence of the Sudden Fall of the Legendary Civilization

Frank Joseph tells the facts, the findings that support the claim that Atlantis once was. Such things as 1960's find of a sunken land mass of the size of Portugal by the Middle Atlantic Rigde, of which the Canary Islands might be a part of.
