Seeing Me in others

In my thirties I found my spiritual guidance, my guide, my higher self. I found in my thirties that there was a source answering me, maybe not answering my questions, but answering me nonetheless. In my thirties I learned to pray; I learned to meditate. I learned that the process is not a request but an opening. Prayer is not a plea but a change. I have been working with and through these powerful tools, processes and Source ever since.

Today I read a Instagram feed that mirrors this awakening from my 30’s:

“In meditation recently I came to myself and I told myself how much I love me and how proud I am of me. It may sound silly to you but it was so powerful for me. It was exactly what I needed. At the end of the meditation I burst into tears and literally hugged myself and said, “I love you” over and over.

I am ok with myself just as I am and I know that I am beautiful and powerful. I embrace my “flaws” and love my inner demons. I am in control of my life and of my emotions. It took me 30 years to come to the conclusion that I don’t need to try so hard to please others. I need to please me…..”

I see these notes on so many Social Media feeds. I don’t think I am looking for them, they arrive on my screen. The posts read of amazement, wonder, awe and community with Source. The love, love of Source, Universe Love, pureness of love is evident in all these feeds.

This one, though, is amazingly powerful to me. It was written two months ago and I found it today. It came from my daughter’s feed.

Solidifying our Connection

This channel from Aug 8, 2021 was the first audio channel for me. I have been writing messages for many years. This last month I finally turned on the microphone. This is thrilling.

Sky is Spirit

I look to the sky when I am communing with Spirit. I find here lately that even as my eyes are closed my face is looking up. So even when I am not looking up, I am looking up when Spirit and I get together for a chat.

I wonder if I have just been trained beyond conscious effort to think of God/Source/Spirit as “above” us (which I don’t consciously agree with – Spirit is with us, not above us) or if I just intuitively understand the sky is the largest open expansive area that most closely mimics the wholeness of Spirit that is available to us.

I think it is the latter.

Absorbing the God Energy

To sit, quietly with an empty mind allows absorption. I no longer feel alone in this. Whether one sits quietly, with an empty mind, may not be required anymore to absorb the God Energy. So many around me are displaying the God Energy. I cannot imagine them sitting quietly. I cannot imagine them in meditation. I am beginning to wonder that the God Energy is so pervasive as to absorb simply as we go about our day.

Have we reached ‘critical mass’ already? Have we reached the point where those that meditate and are conversing with the God Energy are able to bring so much of this energy along with them when they re-enter daily life that we are all affected? And now the God Energy we are all bringing along with us is absorbed as the subtle body understands the meanings behind the words.

To be a Sponge…

Not Proselytizing

When I started seeking faith/grace/connection I heard and attended many traditional churches through their youth outreach programs. Oh, we had fun. We attended retreats, and christian “rock” concerts and spent time hanging out in the pews telling stories and playing guitar….but, they touted telling two friends, who would tell two friends, who would tell two friends. It makes a short list of friends. I’m not so sure I was good at it – as I kept my wide swath a various friends.

Later when I became a “Senior in Faith” with the Buddhist tradition I had been studying for thirty-three years I found there was a performance evaluation with that title. That evaluation included my ability to draw in additional members. Apparently, I wasn’t very good at it even then. I just never grew into the roll of proselytizing.

These days I simply allow meditation. It is a singular event each and every time. Other than writing here, I’m not sure I share this information with anyone I know (except when we are in deep and questioning discussions of course, usually wine or cocktails are involved, and we should have called it a night several hours ago). I love that meditation is singular, internal, wholly personal.

Best part yet is – I am not proselytizing here. I am simply stating my happiness that it is nobody’s business but my own. And in fact you can’t join me – you have to do you.

Scientifically Empathy can be hard

Empathy (google) “the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.”

Einstein states Special Relativity is that time & space are experienced differently depending on one’s state of motion.

We can add to that General Relativity that time & space warp and curve with the presence of matter of energy.

My mother says empathy is the feeling after living in someone else’s shoes.

These are the proofs that empathy is harder to envision than we could ever know. “If it were me” syndrome never takes into effect the nuances of another state of motion or the warp and curve at the moment energy passes through.

Lifetime of Alignment

To be sure I may not be ahead of my time. I am afraid anymore that I am falling behind. All the copywrite dates on these books and the posting dates on YouTube and other channels, movies and media make me realize how far behind I am. That I am not a trailblazer. I am not the Pioneer. I am following a path along with so many others. So many that I have not met. I am assimilating as fast as I can.

Old Soul is present

Old souls abound in our lives currently.  Old souls are abundant.  They are crowding the scenery.  Who doesn’t know an old soul?  Who out there doesn’t think of themselves as an old soul?  Old Souls are notorious for being persecuted, tormented, exiled even.  This time around there are so many they blend in as Every Man.  They used to be shamanistic, esoteric healers, sought after oracles.  We no longer have that pedestal.  Old Souls are us. And we are affecting change just by being here.

I had hoped to be an old soul of “oracle” standing, someone sought after. I had hoped for that low-grade lifetime of fame to show I am worthy of old soul designation.

If I ask myself what I wanted to show, or how I wanted to help – I think I wanted “laying on of hands”. I want to touch people and feel them be healed, to be cleared, to feel them open their “eyes”. And then of course, nobody touches anyone these days. We don’t shake hands, we lightly bump elbows for goodness sake. How is that “hello” or “goodbye” even? It just makes me laugh at the absurdity of it.

I wanted to affect change by channeling a loving guide, a voice to lighten those who would be compelled to listen.

I wanted to reach people by voice, by word, by work. I wanted to reach people by touch, by connection, by love.

I wanted to affect change in this lifetime with some semblance of surrealism apparently.

Apparently, this time around I only need to be present. This may be the hardest assignment. There are so many old souls we are not required to openly affect anyone. We just need to be present.

This assignment is much like being patient. I realize being patience is not waiting. Being patient is being engaged otherwise while that thing that is coming comes. In this way to be present is a lot like patience.

I don’t get to lay on hands, I don’t get to channel, I don’t get to openly, actively proselytize and make known this great wonder that I feel so deeply. I can do without the proselytizing, except I’m toeing a line right now…

I may be here in this lifetime merely to be present. There is no focus of person or activity.

This lifetime has gifted all of us with the power to CREATE meaning. We don’t have to ask for meaning, we create it. This statement is filled with power. So my super-power is presence? How do I work this? In the meantime, here I am.

First Lesson

This thought liberates, it erases the extraneous. All I see is just that thing and no more. All the background thoughts, intentions, histories and motives are washed away. Disintegrated.

Moving the Furniture

I listened to a channeling by Lee Carroll’s Kyron this last weekend – a short one compared to what I usually listen to. The topic is one of my favorites – “Create the Mindset Needed to Advance Into a Higher State…” (there are no affiliate links in today’s post – all links are for reference if you choose.)

https://www.lc23.it/en/armchairs/lc23-wool-feet-polartec-armchair/

Kryon discussed how our sentiments are changing – as if the furniture of our existence is moving…only moving itself…and when we are not looking…as if little feet grow on the chair legs and the sofa slides of it’s own accord. I found this imaging to be fascinating, disconcerting, unleveling and a little bit comical. Apparently when we named chair parts someone had already noticed the “legs”.

These spiritual movements within us are like the furniture moving while we are away. We come back and our spiritual recognition needs a moment to acclimate to the changes.

I could feel adjustments being made earlier this week as I walked in the sunshine. As if life were redirecting itself behind the scenes. While there was nothing to see, the recognition of change happening I cannot yet see was clear and intuitive. The day was brighter than it actually was. It was crisper and clearer. I don’t know what spiritual moments changed. I have never been observant enough to clearly outline, to clearly see any spiritual original to know what was changed for a masterpiece. A masterpiece is evolving. There is a masterpiece being built, my being here and the masterpiece is relevant.

Spiritual evolution is human’s beginning to awaken to previously unknown possibilities. That is the change. That is the change that is analogous to coming home to the furniture moved. An evolving human spirit. The possibilities have changed.
