when we stop using violence, the important thing is that we stop using violence
to solve problems."

I can
certainly say that I have been tested more than ever since writing the
conclusion for Book 3. I was cursing it all until I finally started to feel a
sense of gratitude that perhaps I have cleared some of the darker karma and had
to feel the emotional pain I denied for so many lifetimes. Interestingly, just
as the love I felt at the time I wrote that Conclusion was deeper and more
genuine, this sense of gratitude was also more authentic and ‘natural.’ The
process of feeling through and releasing pain in preparation for Ascension is
like a spiral even though it may feel like we are going round in circles. There
is a point to it: releasing deeper layers until we get to the end of it and
surrender to the truth of who we are in the eternal Now.
We revisit
these tests as though we are on a ghost train riding around in circles with
ghouls and phantoms flying about, executioners and skeletons jumping out in
front of us, until we have seen them so many times that we no longer respond
and know they're not real, that the fear is only within us and brings them to
life. It is simply our own horror movie in which we have been acting all the
roles but discover that we are also the writers, directors and producers. And,
as I wrote to a friend:
“Don't worry, we're getting there my friend. And as we recover and heal
ourselves, remaining centred throughout the chaos and illusions, we are changing
the world energetically, making it easier and quicker for others to heal
themselves and ascend. That is the heroic task we have undertaken and therefore
our purpose. Before we dived in we looked out at the world and saw an
opportunity to serve because we are angels who can only express the love of the
Source and grow more into the depths and power of our divinity in this way. It
is the same for all ascended ones. We have been buried alive and just lying
there playing dead for many lifetimes. But now we're learning that we have been
hiding and it's time to rise up and shake off the soil to dance around the
graveyard and show what is possible and who we really are, to awaken other
souls from their spiritual slumber. The Night of the Living Dead takes on a
whole new meaning!”
Cuz this is
thriller…
As I have
suggested previously, these ordeals, which really commenced when I moved to
London in 1993 but really gathered momentum in 1999 when my next-door
neighbours started having late night get-togethers and their 20-something children
also began harassing me, appear to represent some form of crucifixion. The
observation that I was being tormented on four sides where I live really
‘brought this home to me.’ It is for this reason that these problems have not
only not been resolved but worsened since writing the Conclusion to Book 3. White
Eagle confirms this reality of crucifixion: “When you suffer grievous pain and
come up against harsh conditions, you are crucified. But will it help you if
White Eagle tells you that when you are crucified you are very close to the
great awakening, to the resurrection, when you will find greater beauty, and
more satisfying, deeper happiness, than you have ever known before? So, when
crucifixion comes into your life, whatever form it takes, remember that after
crucifixion follows the resurrection, and after the resurrection follows the
ascension.” (The Light Bringer. The Ray
of John and the Age of Intuition, The White Eagle Publishing Trust, Hants,
U.K., 2001, p.34). Towards the end of the book, White Eagle also gives this
piece of advice:
“All we say
is that you cannot live by bread alone, which means you cannot live by material
standards; you must learn to look beyond, and recognise the sweetness of the
Christ life, not only in good people, not only in the godly company, but in the
brother or sister by your side. Some of you still find cause to misjudge
others. Strive to overcome intolerance. Try to put yourself in another’s place
and feel what they feel during their crucifixion (because that is what it can
amount to). Above all, keep your values right, your vision pure, your heart
full of love.” (ibid. p.160).
In
addition, WE are being crucified on a karmic cross as a society. Every time we
go on public transport and have to put up with noisy, ignorant people with
mobile phones and personal stereos, and if we live next door (or underneath)
such people, or even in ghetto-like urban areas where they are the predominant
species – we are being crucified! And
what that means is that karma and negative energies are being cleared to make
way for the Christ, or Christ level of consciousness, to be born in us.
"4
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not
proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it
keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with
the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always
perseveres." (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).
It feels
like I am helping to carve a path to the New World. I believe that, in extreme
duality, the use of force, even violence, often is the only solution unless one
remains fearful and impotent. By dedicating myself to exploring new ways of
working through these problems I am affecting the collective grid for others to
follow or, rather, build on. As the energies increase in intensity so can love
be more effective.
"Now
is not the time to rush to judgement, to act in haste, to lash out at each
other. Be careful of what energetic matrixes you are feeding within the mass
consciousness. The energy of your very thoughts will flow into the matrix of
love and light or fear and darkness. Which one do you wish to nurture?" -
The Council of 36 (channelled through Carolyn
Holtgrewe).
“After 2012
love will become the answer to every problem. Love is becoming more and more
the answer to all your problems, for love resolves every problem, and love
resolves a problem in a very different way than the mind and logic and all that
you have learned on this earth so far and the next lessons that are coming in
these next two years are about love and understanding love and about becoming
love…There is no need or any cause for war or any violent behaviour on this
planet; everything can be resolved with the energy of love…This was all started
some time ago and it is for each individual to open to the energies of love and
to know that every time that there has been a divine society on this earth that
it has been destroyed; it has been broken, people have become hurt. This time
this will not happen, this time you have all the technology, the Internet, to
share and communicate with others just how you found love, how love found you
and what love does for you. Love will heal your aching joints, it will heal
your difficult relationships; love will put money in your pockets, love will
make life and loving just the way it’s meant to be...Love is in the air, it is
always here and it is humanity which blocks this love through traumas
experienced on this planet and through the many wars and the hurts that have
gone on in the past. There is a great fear around receiving love and around the
true flow of love, but this is what 2012 is about. It is about love, it's about
a new way, a new state of existence. It is about humanity becoming connected
with each other and it's about the church of love once again opening its doors
so that you can worship the true God, the true Christ, the true masters, so
that you can connect with the absolute truth, and this is what Spirit is
bringing you; we are bringing you the knowledge and the wisdom and the love to
connect you fully with the divine, to bring you all into a state of wholeness.”

“A 5D human
differs greatly from a 3D human by way of consciousness and
self-responsibility…that is to say, the state of BEing awake and aware of our
multidimensional mind and motives. ‘Why’ we do anything matters more than ever
now since our intentions must be spawned from heart-centred love in order to
live in a harmonious flow of life...love-based intention is the actual
'programming' that the new-human prototype requires to function optimally.” –

Take heart,
and take courage and encouragement from the promise that what has taken us
forerunners five years or even much longer to achieve in terms of releasing
negative energies and limiting beliefs will take you much less time, explains
energy worker and channeller Lee Harris. “Many things will change for you this
year if you open,” he says. “And, if you do not open, or you do not feel ready
to open, you will go through many internal changes. You will go through many
internal releases. Those of you who have done all the releasing will be
building. Those of you who need to build new lives will be releasing but then
building far faster than those who went through this process the last ¾ years
did. Remember, the mass are going through what so many of you went through in
the last few years. And they will do it quicker. They will benefit from all the
pathways that have been trodden. But they will also benefit from those who are
holding a vibration that all is well, regardless of how it looks.” – Lee Harris
(‘2011: Year of Illumination,’ YouTube video, posted on 20 January 2011,

St. Germain
has said that much fear is coming and that the masses will be drawn to
Lightworkers, those who are ‘not of this world’ and who are to become clear
channels for God's love. Many on this planet, he explained, will move into
fear and the millions of Lightworkers are ‘servants of the heart,’ ‘embodiments
of love’ – those who choose to serve this awakening with every fibre of their
being, their strength and energy, to hold the love and peace and be that in
action continuously. We
are the 'many hands of Christ,' he said, and people will receive what they
needed just by looking in our eyes, for example. He said we have
the ability to communicate through vibration and advised us to recognise the
vibration we are emitting moment-by-moment. We did not come here to become
through worldly experiences, he went on. We are not like others. We are here to
love and serve through our energy, beingness and kindness. We did not come here
for name or fame, popularity or to be liked or agreed with, or to be better
than anyone, but to hold that energy, of one who cares, one who loves, who
holds the Light of Source and allows it to emanate through our actions, eyes,
speech, body and life.
Those lost in the mire will breathe in the fragrance of God’s love through your
energy, see it through your eyes and feel it in your kindness. We are here as
divine beings to quicken other divine beings, be the hand to support their
birth. It is a great responsibility. ‘When you do not take responsibility your
ability to respond is weak.’ We are the hands of Christ now – humble, kind,
forgiving, forbearing, compassionate, he said. ‘The time for forgetting is
over.’ (These notes were taken from a teleconference with St. Germain
channelled through Ashamarae McNamara on 27 February 2011,

In
the patriarchal control system that has been imposed on the entire world by the
dark ones and their stooge Elite power has had more impact than love. As the
Light returns, however, which it is rapidly, so does love have greater impact.
Consequently, people will now begin to find that displays of power and the use
of force are less effective and the conditioning of the old world will start to
wear off. Of course some people will wake up and ‘get it’ before others but,
gradually, all will learn this ‘new’ way of being as they discover that it
works for others and is in their best interests. It is not new at all of course
but merely the natural expression of the spirit in a world of unity that was
known on Earth in ancient times prior to the fall of Atlantis. Human beings
will relax into their true nature. They will express their inner selves
spontaneously because there will be less resistance, less fear, and they will
feel this love light coming closer to the surface, wanting to be expressed, to
shine out into the world.
"In
The Way of the Heart, we will speak
ever more directly and even more forcefully to you. For the time comes quickly
when this planet will not be willing to tolerate untidy house guests that are
not willing to vibrate at the frequency of being toward which the planet
herself is preparing to move. Therefore, be not caught by coming home one day
and discovering that the landlord has changed the locks and you have not a
place to rest your head Rather become the living embodiment of Love and journey
with your Holy Mother into an entirely new dimension of being. And never forget
to sing, laugh, dance and play along the way!! Be you therefore, at peace
beloved friends. Amen." – Jeshua (channelled through Jayem, The Way of Mastery, p.82, ‘Love Heals All Things,’ www.wayofmastery.com).
After my
encounters with the new property owner, I realised that every experience we
have in life is there to teach us to love more. He was in a position of power
where he could have been ruthless and shown mercy except that the repercussions
may have interfered with his business interests. His priority was to get me out
and make as much money from the sale of the house as possible. He did not
appear to trust me perhaps because I am not motivated by money and have
different values to him (none of which make me any happier by the way!). By the
end, for whatever reason, it was apparent that he could not face having to deal
with me anymore. I suspect he is one of the Atlanteans who have incarnated
across Europe for several millennia.
This whole
process, the crisis that I have been through, like a sack of heavy karmic cargo
that was dropped on my head and crushed me where I stood, was designed to open
my eyes and my heart, to steer me away from fear and reactive behaviour into a
new attitude, a new mode of being, to accept more, to forgive more and to love
more. No, I did not attain a state of perfect self-mastery at the end of it.
Far from it. I did, however, make a start. I learned and absorbed enough of the
lesson to carry this wisdom with me into my future life and encounters with
people. And, so, even though it may appear that the bitter clash with my
neighbours lasted right up to the end, I had let go of much, released much of
the fear, anger and resentment that resulted from all these apparent attacks on
me in that box I lived in and that I always wished had been a Tardis that could
take me far away from Monstaville!
I took with
me something of permanent value which cannot be taken from me and that is
understanding. And that understanding is an intuitive part of each and every
human being. It simply needs to be unlocked and awakened. And my wish for each
reader of these books is that they awaken as much of this intuitive
understanding as possible whilst going through as little distress in their
lives as possible. And I have faith that those of us who took on this challenge
of working through roughly a twelve-year crisis have impacted the collective
consciousness of humanity sufficiently to make this inner knowing more
accessible to all. My experiences and decision to write these books have also
prompted me to examine the nature of suffering and attempt to get to the root
of it for the purpose of healing through furthering my own wisdom and that of
those who read what I have written and put together in these feral volumes. And
demonstrate compassion for myself and others too, naturally.
“It is
difficult, after so long apparently spent struggling and sometimes fighting for
your very survival in an environment that is often extremely inhospitable, to
open your hearts and lovingly trust one another. However, to do just that, by
letting go of personal agendas, practicing trusting others, and being utterly
and uncompromisingly trustworthy yourselves, is the way forward out of the
illusion and into Reality. The amount of assistance available to help you with
this task is vast and unprecedented. Many of you are availing of it and
changing your attitudes as you let down the defensive barriers that have
divided you and kept you separated for so long – so many of you in fact, that
you are approaching the tipping-point, the point at which, quite suddenly, vast
numbers of you realise that there is nothing to be gained by continuing to behave
in the old confrontational ways that have served you so inadequately.” – Saul

“We know
it’s challenging. We know it’s not easy here. We know you’re being stretched to
your limit and even more than that. All of you, every moment. Yet, you are here
because you have the ability to be here. You are hearing these words because
you have the ability to close the gap of separation, the delusion that you are
separate from the person who’s serving you a coffee or dropping your food on
the table, or fixing your car. Begin to see it as a duty. It is your duty to
look for divine in everyone. It is your duty to look past people’s what you
call ‘shortcomings.’ That does not imply that you continue to allow to be
unkind if they’re being unkind. Common sense here…Walk in divinity. See
everyone as divine. Look past the appearance as best you can. And pray
moment-by-moment: ‘Beloved God, see through these eyes. Help me to see what you
see. Help me to see your children everywhere. Help me to see your Light in
everyone. Do you not realise when you do not see that way you are deluded? You
are a part of the delusion when you do not see that way. Time to wake up. And
only love wakes anything up. Only love…You are all family. And there will be a
point in this Earth’s evolution, you will see that. Even the ones who refuse
will have no choice but to see that. For Mother will make it so. And each one
will choose: ‘How do I choose to live from this point of view that actually
everyone is my family? When the Masters come into this world and they go and
they help everyone, why do they do that? They recognise, ‘This is my family.
These are my beloveds.” – St. Germain (channelled through Ashamarae McNamara, ’Healing
the Delusion of Separation,’ 13 December 2012, www.awakeningfromwithin.com).
As
a retrospective observation a few years after moving away from London, I have
this statement to add:
There are no solutions except for making sure that you expand your
consciousness. Study so that you have more angles from which to perceive
situations, more strings to your bow, more cards up your sleeve, places to
hide, understanding friends to talk to and warrior comrades (including pets if
suitable) to contribute their energy and presence to some degree. Surviving an
attack of bad karma may include a breakdown. That might be part of the learning
curve chosen for your growth as crisis, being a transformation, naturally
signals the death of the ego, which is simply limited physical identity and
resulting finite awareness.

The Conclusion to this book touches more on St. Germain's
thoughts and the higher perspective of the Masters. It is really a combination
of the Conclusions to books one and two. They represent steps on quite a speedy
journey to where I am now. Learning on many levels has been pretty much
non-stop for me since I finished writing the Conclusion to the first book! Kind
of like cramming a full decade into one year (and then some). There is no doubt
in my mind that we most need to develop love in our hearts first and focus on
this primarily (and, ultimately, to Be the Love we already Are as prodigal sons
and daughters of God). I did not fully appreciate what this meant when I wrote
the initial Conclusion. Now that I do, I can honestly say that it has become
the most important thing in my life. It feels like I was looking over a wall on
tiptoe at that time. I knew that the answers were to be found beyond it but I
was unable to keep my balance and sustain my vision. So I came down again and
eventually turned my attention to the Trinity, concluding that power and wisdom
are equally significant as expressions of the Triune God that we all are. [See
Appendix I: Joshua David Stone]. On higher levels
of consciousness, I believe they are but, without first attaining the level of
the Christ, of Divine Love, the other two qualities remain limited for us. You
could say that an ascended being then appeared on my side of the wall having
flown here from beyond it to assist human beings in finding and exercising
their own wings. Anchoring the Christ Love on Earth is such a pressing matter
that the Masters are keen to teach humanity that “Only love is real,” in the
words of Jeshua.
“The
most difficult part of all of that for you is when you realise that there truly
is nothing outside of you but a story and that the being that is requiring the
love is you. And if you want to get into enlightenment, then indeed it is
simply to say that the enlightenment is the natural result of loving who you
are absolutely and unconditionally.” – P’taah (channelled through Jani King,
www.ptaah.com).
The concept that we create every detail of our reality is
something I really find impossible to grasp, although I have finally learned
that it is the subconscious, or the wounded Inner Child (as Kryon explains),
that chiefly paints our experiences on the canvas of life. Yet, that is just
the beginning of dealing with difficult people and situations from a place of
awareness. Therefore, the conclusion of this book and the whole project really
is that this is just the beginning of fathoming such a subject! It touches on
the range of 'human' perspectives but only just begins to rise to a more divine
perspective. It is an introduction, a path, to that plane of thought. I have
been growing so fast even since the Conclusion to book two was written. It
feels as though, throughout 2009, I was moving up and down like a yoyo, not
least in my responses to my neighbours. Releasing, reacting, retaliating,
relaxing.
I have released a lot of ‘stuff’ both from childhood and past
lives this year (2009) and finally entered a new heart space. It is my
intention to centre myself in the higher vibrations of joy and love, to be
happier and more awake. I don’t feel so frustrated with everything in my life.
I no longer get so angry and upset which means I can endure more and I now also
incline to listen to music of my own in order to focus on enjoyment rather than
the torment that my neighbours would have me suffer. It is highly possible that
various people have tormented me during my life because I need to stop
tormenting myself, which I may well have been doing for more than a few
lifetimes now, partly, I guess, because that repressed beast is also a major
source of energy that has been denied. This relates to the need to face my
fears (particularly of my own ego and my potential for power, which is quite a
responsibility) and let go of the past which means, in particular, forgiving
myself and forgetting in order to move on, to return home to the Love and Light
of the Source. In addition, there is the will-to-live factor which appears to
have slumped dramatically (which St. Germain brought to my attention)! As
Lazaris (through Jach Pursel) explained to Merv Griffin twenty-odd years ago,
“You create your own reality under all circumstances through the power of
choice, through the power of change, through the power of love.”
Ram Dass
tells us that, "All spiritual practices are illusions created by
illusionists to escape illusion." Gratitude and forgiveness are still
illusions which assist us on our way out of the Theatre of Illusion. Higher
still is simply pure Being, beyond all mind. Yet, while we are still stuck down
a hole we still benefit from each rung of the ladder. As Mooji explains: “The
self can only use an illusion to wake itself up illusion because it’s never
been asleep. Even that it’s asleep is also an illusion. So it has to use an
illusion to break its own illusion.” (Satsang, 2 December 2010, ‘Eternally
Home’). It was always possible to simply ‘wake up’ in a flash, just not quite
as easy as it sounds. The odds are turning in our favour more and more but even
the initial upward ascent can help to encourage and inspire us to keep going
and make our way to greater heights. The Seven Magical Healing Energies of
Kryon, which might conceivably be likened to such steps, help to loosen us up
on higher levels and activate our higher centres so that the divine energies
can enter our crown chakras and flow through us once again, like a river. The
seven energies that Kryon asks us to open ourselves to are: Responsibility, Apology,
Forgiveness, Love, Surrender, Gratitude and Letting Go. [See Appendix X]. Each
of these energies can be likened to light being allowed to enter the physical
vehicle, a step towards grounding full consciousness. They help to open the
curtains fully, not just a half-hearted attempt which leaves the sides covered.
As P’taah suggests, it is possible to release and receive energy from every
aspect of life rather than closing the door and saying, ‘No thank you,’ thereby
allowing resistance to drain energy from us.
“Let Me
speak to you about surrender. It is not giving up things you want. This is the
ego-mind's opinion of it, but dearest ones, it's far more the opposite.
Surrender is the full acceptance of that which is Real about you and about
life. It is the surrender of the ego. Nothing more. But nothing less. It is
only the ego that hangs on, that has a ‘certain way’ it wants things. The heart
is alive in the moment. The heart simply IS. So surrender is a pro-active
experience, not a passive acceptance of loss of something. Surrender is
releasing the ego and opening the heart. When you surrender is when at last you
are totally full - full of the Real abundance, full of all of My Love, full of
your experience of great Love together. All that is Real, then, is yours if you
are living a surrendered life.” - From the Messages from God (channelled
through Yael and Doug Powell, 13 December 2012, www.circleoflight.net).
Appreciation,
gratitude and forgiveness are positive energies which can serve to counter the
negative conditions around us and the negative feelings, anxieties and
reactions which may arise from the fearful ego. This, of course, relates to my
initial study of Buddhist doctrines in Book One so we have come full circle, or
spiralled into a vortex of richer experience and deeper understanding. It’s
that ‘Nature abhors a vacuum’ principle again. [See Appendix XII: ‘Your
Attention to it Invites It In’ by Abraham].
By
courageously loving and forgiving we are creating space for the love and bliss
that we are to grow in our hearts. When we yield to fearful or violent
reactions we stir up the pool. We allow a storm sent from the ego mind to bring
turbulence to our hearts and it forms a barrier to the true Self that resides
there. I continue to bless my neighbours when they’re being noisy knowing, at
least, that the power of the Word helps to change my own energy, dissolving any
negative reactions that might surface. Using this tool helps me to be less
affected by the noise although, when things get too much in this environment in
which I live, I also feel that I have a mature awareness of what my options are
and I refuse point blank to put up with others’ selfish behaviour and take
their shit (pardon my French).
"In
the beginning we attempt to cultivate loving kindness. Later, loving kindness
cultivates us." - Stephen Levine.
If you are just living, even if you are living loudly, then of
course I will put up with that. It is not my place to react to that or complain.
Even if you are deliberately being loud. Even if your coughing and sneezing
all-year-round is fake and deployed like a form of sonar missile (or Nature Modification Weapon). That, too, doesn’t bother
me (much). Providing it is not late at night when I need to sleep. And, having
the television on loud is not something I consider to be general living. That
is just plain selfish and callous in terraced living conditions like this. All
you have to do is turn the volume down! Wearing shoes in an upstairs flat after
the poor fellow beneath you has mentioned how excruciatingly loud it is? Well,
no excuses for that either really. That, too, is selfish and callous behaviour
in my view.
Blessing is, of course, another way of forgiving, potentially
at least. At this important time in the history of Earth, we would be wise to
make inner peace and happiness our goal because these states are now more
available to us than ever before. Indeed, these and other wholesome qualities
of Oneness will eventually replace all of the symptoms of the disease known as
duality for the entire human race! Love makes the world go round. Everybody
knows that despite the relentless programming by the global banking Elite who
want us to believe that money (most of which they are hoarding – meaning that
there is much, much more money in existence than we have been led to believe!)
makes the world go round. According to St. Germain and others, love is the key to abundance. While we
are focused on money alone, we are restricting ourselves to linear thinking and
rational materialism which keep us confined to third dimensional
identification. Our hearts remain closed and the Light of the Spirit, the Love
of the Self, remains in exile.
"When
there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you."

And,
so, we must go on with the quest for precious stones and magical jewels having
faith that we are searching in the right place, not outside of us but in our
very own hearts, contrary to what the authorities of this material world have
been telling us for aeons. Now that these colossal truths have been brought to
my attention, it feels as if I am standing at the foot of a mountain, starting
a new journey towards self-mastery, a new life. There is no turning back now
and yet the size of these challenges looming over me seems most intimidating.
For, how can one achieve the perspective from the zenith when one has only just
arrived at the foot of the mountain? It’s all very well for the Ascended Ones
to offer their perspective but I have to confess that, after the awe-inspiring
‘Who Are the Ascended Masters?’ talk, it seemed to me that climbing that that
mountain was a very daunting task. I felt grumpy for the whole of the next day
and told someone, ‘It’s what you’d expect a talk by the Ascended Masters to be:
a bunch of boffins and school prefects who passed all their exams first time
and got A grades. Now, they are at University and visiting the reform school
that our world has become to say, ‘Well, if you just do this and this and this’
then you will awaken just like we have.’’ Grrrr! All I remembered, in fact,
that there was this huge dark obstacle in my path: a heart of darkness! Yet,
that apparent darkness, really, is only the unknown territory of the Path. The
Masters kindly described some of it for us just as a dragon might appear in the
cave and speak of the wonders to come, the gleaming jewels hidden within the
deep recesses of the cavern. The unknown has the appearance of a dark cave or
mountain because it has yet to be illumined by our own conscious attention and
awareness, our own realisation. It is an illusory construct of fear, nothing
more[1].
Another
slice of Wisdom, offered by Jeshua and the Messages of God in particular, is
that we need to love everything in order to transcend and release it (which is
why, perhaps, the practice of gratitude is considered to be so valuable as a
spiritual tool because, as it has been claimed, 80% of love is gratitude.
Forgiveness, too, of course, is another quality of love). Jeshua, or Jesus, of
course demonstrated this principle rather grandly in his last incarnation on
Earth - albeit overlighted and empowered by Archangel Michael and other
powerful beings – which, although this shows humanity what is possible, for me,
it does not really show us what we can expect ourselves although if we aim high
we will grow more quickly of course (and who knows where the Ascension process
will take us? Imagine millions of Christs walking around on this planet, and
increasing in numbers all the time!).
"As
you walk through this world, when you cry out wondering what your purpose is,
bring your attention back to the simple fact that you are here to bless the
world through forgiveness. Look, therefore, gently upon all that you see. Learn
to return the mind, the emotions, and as long as it lasts, even the body, to
peace. So the graciousness of Christ can flow forth through you unimpeded,
unlimited, shining with joy. And let that light fall upon whomever you see and
whatever you see." - Jeshua (channelled through Jayem, The Blessing,www.wayofmastery.com,
).
This quote appeared in a newsletter relating to The Way of Mastery accompanied by the following statement which would
be a fitting epitaph for this project:
"The
sincere spiritual student seeks to forgive everything that is experienced and
witnessed. They no longer question whether to forgive, just how it is best
carried out. Jeshua makes it sound easy and sometimes it is. Other times it
takes herculean effort. The lessons of Jeshua were given to assist us in the
art of forgiveness. To choose Love over resentment, hatred, and fearful
thoughts takes practice. One has to remember that just by virtue of making a
commitment to spiritual progress, everything standing in the way of that
progress is going to show itself. We should congratulate ourselves for all the
negativity that comes up. We are succeeding in our quest! Although it may not
feel too great, Divinity is answering our prayer."
Gratitude,
I have found, is a ‘method’ of keeping the door of the heart open to enable
energy – joy – to flow. It opens the door to innocence and allows us to return
to a state of Grace which is our original and real nature. We should be
grateful when negative behaviour surfaces in others towards us because it is a
reminder that there is still unconscious fear or violence buried within us
somewhere that needs to be loved and released. The most efficient way to do
this is to forgive those who wish us harm. It would be wise to create a
practice, perhaps daily, whereby we spend a few moments reflecting on anything
negative that has emerged within or outside of us so we can then breathe it out
and release it with love and forgiveness. It is through this alchemy of love
that we are able to dig down deep enough to pull up the roots of these weeds to
prevent them from appearing in our lives again in another form, another person
or situation.
“But
whenever you default to self-pity mode without awareness, you’re lost in
playing the part of a whining child, no matter how you dress it up or justify
it. Whenever you carry your responsibilities without complaint, having reached
a stage of personal development where you’ve now learned to value your life and
everything it brings you, that’s the point at which you enter the ‘state of
grace.’ The Taoists call one who walks in a state of grace a person of true
virtue, or ‘te.’ Te people (and I don’t mean Tetley’s) are the world’s heroes.
But no one is in a state of virtue all the time. You flip in and out of it,
hero to cur, adult to spoilt brat at the drop of a hat. The art…is to remain
mindful as you transit from one to the other.” - Barefoot Doctor (Dear
Barefoot. Taoist Wisdom For Everyday Living, Atlantic Books on behalf of
Guardian Newspapers Ltd, London, U.K., 2004, p.95).
The way I
see it, consciousness is flowing and circulating everywhere and we are, just as
continuously, receiving and being part of this infinite sea. All else is
resistance which means constricting the flow in our personal sphere of thought
and experience as well as holding on to energy in an effort to control and
inhibit consciousness. We close the door and separate ourselves from the higher
levels of consciousness. In other words, we are closing our eyes, denying
reality and remaining asleep, locked inside our own dreamworld or nightmare,
our own bubble of limited consciousness which we fear will burst. Either we
fear that the world or other people have the power to destroy the little world
we have created (which is all in our heads) or we attempt to impose on the
world through our views and behaviour and hope that our ego will endure that
way. When we practice love, acceptance, gratitude and forgiveness, when we
chose peace, joy and happiness deep in our hearts, when we surrender to cosmic
wholeness (and gives ourselves to the Divine Feminine), we open not only to the
flow of universal consciousness but to all the Divine Grace that comes with it.
Those clear, shimmering, powerful waters are deeply cleansing for the soul and,
as they wash out all the residue that’s built up and stuck to our ‘insides’
over the course of many lifetimes they also replace the stagnant water with
that which glows, which is life itself, which is fresh liquid light. Life and
Light return as the Sun shines into our souls once again, as water rushes in
carrying with it light from the Sun above and teeming with dapper dolphins
flapping their fins, friendly fishes fancy free, silly little seals - or wise
old walruses - sporting canes, tweed waistcoats and bowler hats, talking like
this:
‘I say, I
say, I do hope the old girl’s home, you know.’
‘Rather!
Last time I was invited to Alice’s for tea, we had a ball! Absolutely spiffing
(chortle)!’
‘By Jove,
Thackeray, I do hope the coachman knows where he’s going.’
‘Yes, this
fellow does seem a tad lost, what? [Bangs on the roof with his cane] I say,
could you hurry it up a bit old chap? We don’t want to be late you know.’
‘Don’t
worry Sir, ‘Despair is perfectly compatible with a good
dinner, I promise you.’ [William Thackeray quote].
‘By George!
What insolence! LOL!’
...and, er,
playful plankton that never ask any questions about their destination.
Mmm...all in the belly of a whale! And, how seriousness can just, all of a
sudden, flip head-over-heels into frivolous nonsense in the twinkling of an
eye!
"Be
aware of the need to be grateful for the suffering and struggles that are part
of the fabric of your life. Sometimes it's easy to simply be angry at your
suffering rather than to know that it is the catalyst for your searching and
awakening. Your ability to know the power of kindness and love most likely grew
out of some darkness and pain in your past. Without those experiences you would
still be stuck. Addictions teach the elixir of purity. Anger teaches the
ecstasy of love. Ingratitude teaches the need for gratitude. Hoarding teaches
the pleasure of giving. Your own pain taught you how to be more present and
loving with others. Your chicken pox taught you how to avoid it later in life,
by giving you the opportunity to build up the antibodies in your immune system.
Life gives exams! Be grateful for those exams rather than critical of
them." - Wayne W. Dyer (Manifest Your Destiny, 1997).
“Every
positive change - every jump to a higher level of energy and awareness -
involves a rite of passage. Each time to ascend to a higher rung on the ladder
of personal evolution, we must go through a period of discomfort, of
initiation. I have never found an exception.” – Dan Millman.
Can we
ordinary folk (including those of us who have lost touch with ourselves as
Masters) simply withstand any negative treatment and remain unaffected? No. We
suffer. And even if we try to endure patiently either this causes us to break
down and suffer eventually or we snap and lash out in anger at some point. Life
is both a form of torture and an initiation in my view. Of course the Initiates
view it as the latter (which I accept to be the objective truth as opposed to
the subjective experience). Yet, what distinguishes the ‘ordinary’ from the
‘initiated’ is essentially just this simple state of being ‘in heart,’ of
feeling in the heart and, consequently, being reacquainted with the love and
power of the Spirit beyond this troubled world of illusion. And, so, surely,
yes, anyone can do this, in time and with practice, feeling more and more,
going deeper and deeper. Those of us who are still suffering might have the
occasional glimpse of this truth but, generally, until one has awakened to full
consciousness and is oblivious to extreme negativity in this world of duality,
it is torture. It is Hell (although, as I suggested in the Introduction, I am
beginning to make some headway now,
personally)!:
"My
resurrected body also showed you that I overcame negative thinking though it
surrounded me. I modelled that you can rise above evil through contact with the
eternal source which resides within you even while you dwell in the flesh. My
example has been frozen and deified, not followed. I come in thought to free
you then, and to return you to the God within, for care and keeping. Will you
accept your awakening?
I
say to you that my appearance on the planet earth was to demonstrate the power
of the mind - good thinking over negative thinking, of positive belief over the
darkness, of love over hate...
The
difference between you and me is small in principle but wider in practice. I
believe totally in the Father/Mother and nothing else. I have mastery. You have
doubts. You have not totally committed your heart and mind and therefore need
further growth. All the other great teachers of the world religions also seek
to assist you in growth and practice of love and compassion. That is our
function; that is out purpose; that is the reason I came...
The
coming age is the time of connection with God, but also with the soul life in
the brothers and sisters around you, both visible and invisible. We are now at
the culmination of 250,000 years of learning and self-mastery for those who
seek it. Your souls have not been sitting idly in heaven all this time, but
growing through love and service even as I have done."
(ibid.
p.52-53).
As the titles [the original subtitles, since dispensed of] of
this series suggests, most of what is written in the pages of these books is
from what I consider to be an ‘Indigo’ perspective, from the vantage point of
having more than two active strands of DNA (two strands representing the
functioning of the physical body and twelve active strands of DNA representing
the ‘Crystal’ or ‘Christ’ state). As Shekinah states, Indigos are ‘enlightening
humanity’s genetic code’ through their expanded DNA. The individual truth,
expression and experience of the Indigo therefore sets the person at odds with
society. I mentioned in Chapter 101 that someone carrying Indigo energy is able
to develop crystalline energy if they undergo purification. When I read that
this included a pure diet of raw fruit and vegetables I admit that I wrote the
idea off and did not believe that I had what it took to make such a transition.
However, to my surprise, St. Germain offered me the assistance I needed,
inferring that they (the Ascended Masters) believed in me and could see me
awakening but I could do with a little push! (I have been told before that I am
closer to my ideal of perfection than I think but that I cannot see it because
I am in the body. “We don’t see you as you see yourself,” St. Germain
explained).
Saint Germain
The journey from Indigo to Crystal is a shift from (the love
of) truth to (the truth of) love. As a result of this loving assistance I
myself now appear to be verging on Crystal Christ consciousness as my crystal
body is activated by certain codings and attunements, personal responses and
progressions, and whatnot. As I understand it, everyone is developing a new
crystalline body and much work is being done behind the scenes from the inner
planes, especially at night while we sleep. Naturally, we each have our own
rate of development. While the Earth and the nature kingdoms have already made
this transition without too much fuss, we humans tend to be held back by our
own emotional issues, habit patterns, attachments, identities and the rest of
it! It is for this reason that we are advised to spend an hour in nature each
day, to benefit from Her heightened energies.
St. Germain he told me that I now have a new body and that
‘everyone will experience this jump.’I
have wondered, therefore, if this
‘diet and rest’ aspect of developingthe
crystal body might not require such pure conditions in the future because this
process will somehow become more accessible. Eventually, everyone's body will change naturally in
response to the higher energies, the unstoppable collective quantum leap to
Christ consciousness and the new systems of love which are set to replace the
political systems of control. This does not mean that people will be able to
get out of working on themselves where this is needed in order to make the
shift. It just means that it might become easier and quicker as higher
frequencies arrive and more human beings anchor and embody them – potentially
through all twelve strands of DNA. It is just harder to achieve now because we
are endeavouring to release our programming (purging our emotional bodies) in a
world which does not yet reflect or even accommodate the new being that is
emerging from its chrysalis. In my case, a window of opportunity was required.
The initial work for me included the summer months, from May to September, so
it coincided with four months of eating more raw food to allow for this shift.
After that, of course, the more raw food I can manage, the more Light I can
store in my body so I can activate more of my DNA, but if the weather's freezing cold and I can't then that's that!
“Absorbing
light requires ones at the negative end of duality to change from violence to
peacefulness, from greed to generosity, corruption to honour, unjustness to
fairness, anger to reason, oppression to freedom. The bodies of those who
refuse to stop the negative behaviour that boosted them into powerful positions
will die, and the souls will go to worlds where the energy is the same as those
persons generated during their physical lifetime.” - Matthew (channelled
through Suzanne Ward, 11 January 2010, www.matthewbooks.com).
It is
really important to 'intend to ascend.' These are exciting times. More and more
energy is on its way. Ascension itself is really just releasing and healing in
preparation for embodying full consciousness. Individuals such as
myself are blazing a trail through the jungle of dense vibrations (however
tangled up we might also be during the process!). In future, I believe, it will
be easier for people to release negativity and become channels for the Love
that we all are. The return of the Light, including the accelerated energies
arriving on Earth now, means that anything is possible from now on!
“You may have strong Indigo traits as well some
Crystal energy. You may be a Crystal with some Indigo traits. You may feel like
you are a little of both…The goal of these energies is to bring change to the
world and they are doing it in their unique ways. The fact that the world is
not quite ready for them is not a challenge. They will be who they are until,
in their own way, they bring about the change they came here to create…Whether
you are an Indigo or Crystal or have a combination of these energies, you came
here to do very special work. Finding that path can be a challenge and it may
feel like many doors are closed to you. Do not be discouraged - you are the
change the world needs and the secret to success for you is to believe in
yourself and in your gifts, use your guidance to help you find the best outlet
for them. Once you find your path you will be unstoppable and will have the
joy, peace, understanding and acceptance that you desire.”-Jennifer Hoffman (‘Today’s Children,’
www.urielheals.com/Page.html).
I now believe I was always part Indigo and part Crystal - like
Michael Jackson too! - Indigo-going-on-Crystal since birth. We are mountain
peaks of love and Light, just not risen suns yet. The Indigo tends to rebel
against the encroachment of the jungle and challenges the System because his or
her truth cannot be denied. In the Crystal being, conflict is replaced by peace
because Love simply flows from the heart regardless. There is nothing to rebel
against because their Light shines upon this plane of illusion and animates and
uplifts it. The Crystal
human has attained the level of Christed consciousness. We are then, as Lauren
C. Gorgo states, “fully realised, self-empowered and self-sustainable due to
the unobstructed connection to Source through our activated DNA and enlivened
crystalline cells.” (‘2010: The Year of Truth in Action,’ 8 January
2010, www.consciousco-creationalcoaching.blogspot.com/2010/01/2010-year-of-truth-in-action.html).
According to Isis, the physical body will then move from a Crystal to Diamond
structure before we are ready for Cosmic (as opposed to planetary) Ascension
(channelled through Petra Margolis, 12 February 2009).
St. Germain asked us what qualities describe the word ‘majesty’
(being derived from ‘majestic’). The result was pretty much all the qualities
of the authentic Self, the real Self that is our eternal spirit. These
qualities all relate in some way to the trinity of love, power and wisdom. He
chuckled at the notion of the Queen of England being majestic. “Majesty is in
the heart,” he said. This word is more suggestive of the higher, spiritual
state of consciousness of the Christed Ones.
“Living from the heart will become the norm. We will come to know that our hearts are our best navigators and we will use them often. Our hearts have been opening for quite some time these past ten years, simply because the first phase of ascension has opened so much in our upper back and neck areas, allowing for the sprouting of our angel wings. But in recent times, our hearts have opened for other reasons as well. Although some of us may have known about living from our hearts intellectually for quite some time (and some of us are better at this than others!), because of all the pain and suffering many of us have recently seen or experienced, our hearts have opened even more (before this, they may have ‘closed’ from the experience of departing from the old reality and needing to separate from it and leave it behind!). Having an open heart and giving and receiving love is perhaps the only thing that felt good and right during these recently challenging times after we left the old reality, and we can now remember this well and access this space of higher level being and feeling with more ease. In addition, when anything feeling ‘good’ occurs for us as well, our hearts again open and we may feel like crying and may become very emotional. Gratitude and an open heart are frequently by-products in times of great suffering and challenge…It is all about hearts now…all about hearts.” – Karen Bishop (Wings, 1 January 2010, ‘2010...The Year of Creativity, Manifestations, and Self-Expression,’ www.emergingearthangels.com/latest.html).
‘Collected verse of Rudyard Kipling’ with illustrations by William Heath Robinson. Published 1910 by Doubleday, Page & Co., New York
We have been cut off from the Oneness and unconditional love
known to ourselves on a higher level and to those who have ascended from the
plane of physical illusion to the realms of Light, in this galaxy and others.
We have not fully known love because we have not received or experienced much
of it in this life and this has blocked our emotions, thus causing our heart
chakras to vibrate slowly or even shut down completely. In other words, opening
to feel and share more love is not necessarily something we can achieve alone.
We can set our intention to love, and want to know the love that is our eternal
Being, our natural state, but it is likely that we will also require the
presence and assistance of beings who are already consciously centred in that
high frequency energy. I myself, for instance, benefit enormously from my
communions with higher beings during my daily meditation practice and these now
even include one of the multidimensional versions of myself who is a high
priestess in the Andromeda galaxy no less! (Yeah, far out!). It is interesting
to me that I stated in the Conclusion of book one in this series that my ideal
was to become more like ‘M’ (I’m still not sure if he hails from Sirius or
Andromeda) before I realised that this, really, means that I aspire to be an
ascended being myself. Ascension was not on the menu for me at that time. The
floodgates to the new channelled information were about to be opened for me!
And, I now find myself on that path to Ascension.
"What wisdom can you find that is greater than
kindness?" - Jean Jacques Rousseau.
During my one-to-one with St. Germain (3 July 2009 before
receiving the Archangel Michael/Archia Faith Attunement), he also asked if I
trust my heart and I said I think I do, about 75%, to which he replied that
‘either you do or you don't,
there's
nothing in between’! I think he meant surrendering to inner guidance, to ‘what
feels right.’ He said something about life remaining limited until I stop
looking outside of myself for things and look within for everything (you see
what I mean by ‘Huge Mountain’ or ‘Heart of Darkness’?).
“Your sole mission in this life is to love, to express the
embodiment of love that you are. Every experience is only there for you to
express love. If you express it, you will get it from within you. How simple is
that? There is no complexity in life.” - St.
Germain and the Ascended Masters (channelled through Ashamarae, 12 June 2009,
‘Who Are the Ascended Masters?’ www.awakeningfromwithin.com).
“Allow yourselves to tune in to the new energy. You
are the ones who have said you are ready for new energy. You are the masters
who have said, ‘I will come one more time into a reality that yet believes that
there can be other than love, other than harmony, other than Light, and I will
bring my Light, and I will bring my awakening consciousness.’” – ibid.
On another occasion, St.
Germain smiled and informed me, ‘The challenge is to be love in a world of
conflict.’ Actually, this made me quite angry for a few days because I took it
as a direct reference to the advice I had received through that channeller back
in 1993, just prior to moving to London and I figured that it meant that I had
been encouraged from the inner planes (perhaps by the Ascended Masters
themselves) to move to London and go through all this shit! I mean, I could
hardly even cope with life as it was let alone making things much, much worse!
It certainly couldn’t have been a challenge to find the will to live!
“Everyone’s heart is too big for this world,” St. Germain told me. We have so
much love inside us. My Conclusion wavers between ‘Expressing love while others
are hostile is impossible’ and ‘OK, up to a point - up to a higher point on the
scale than before - this is quite natural now.’ In other words, while I have
not yet attained the level of true, unconditional love (at least consistently)
or of owning my experiences and all people and situations in my life, the path
towards self-mastery has at least begun. That, for me, is what this whole book
is about.
“The only
way to truly rid yourself of this experience is to acknowledge that if you did
not have these emotions in you, then you would not be affected by them. So
there is a mirror effect here for you. You may feel that someone is dumping on
you or giving you negativity, but if you were not on some level attracting this
experience as a teaching for yourself, you would not bring it to you. So I can
give you all the advice in the world about calling on your teachers and guides
and Sananda to surround you with light. This is always beneficial. But this
will not protect you from your own lessons. So I suggest that you look within and
see how it is within yourself that you are still attracting these experiences.
They may be coming simply so that you can see what there is to release. It is a
matter of releasing this within yourself. Release density from your own
emotional body. Then you will not attract it from without.” – St. Germain
(channelled through Eric Klein, The
Crystal Stair. A Guide to the Ascension, Oughton House Publications, CA, U.S.,
1990, p.119).
St. Germain
"Remember
that only love brings a state of no anxiety ‑ and only love. Everything else
creates a new anxiety...Jesus says, 'God is love,' and I say, 'Love is god.' It
is not enough to say that god is love, because god may be many more things.
Love may be just one attribute. I say that love is god. Love is all and all.
Nothing else is needed...In love you are lost. In prayer the other is also
lost. A moment comes when there is no lover and no beloved...only love energy.
That energy is delight and that energy is no anxiety. That is the goal. Forget
everything else ‑ never forget love!" - Osho.
"You,
as humanity, must focus more clearly on love than ever before if you wish to
return to God purified of violence. For return is scheduled, soon, but only the
loving ones can proceed." - Jeshua ('The Christ,' channelled through Virginia Essene,
New Teachings For An Awakening Humanity, Spiritual Education Endeavours
Publishing Company, Santa Clara, CA, U.S., 1986, updated 1994, p.70). And: "Those who choose wisely to know the
truth of life will assist the planet in her, and their own, ascension to higher
realms. The remainder will insist that the material world is the only reality
and will fall short of the challenge that is being presented to them. For the
planet must demonstrate love and wisdom for her evaluation and graduation, and
humanity must do the same. Intellect cannot bring love and peace! That is not
its purpose."
(ibid. p.75).
I told St. Germain that it is sad to have written a conclusion
about love and then to have rejected it and added an epilogue and postscript [which
eventually became the Conclusions to books two and three respectively] which give
an indication of his ideas. He asked
me, “How do you know it had no effect?” (referring to the love I sent to the
neighbours). He also said that my rejection of love as a conclusion is because
it was only conditional love not unconditional love. "Unconditional
love is vast,"
he added. I asked him what he meant and he added, "Big.
It is big."
He then proceeded to share a couple of examples with me to illustrate that
nothing can compare with the unconditional love that is one’s true Being. In
fact, I asked him, ‘Is that because you’ve got something more valuable?’ He
found this question encouraging and smiled, ’Yes!’ Consequently, my
understanding is that unconditional love is an expression of having something
more precious and sacred in oneself than anything one might be required to
sacrifice; that is, one’s very own Being and all the joy and happiness that
goes with it! [For a deeper insight into the nature of
unconditional love see the article ‘Six Steps to Truly Enjoying Life’by Salem
in Appendix XI].
“Even from birth, as we chose challenging paths and dark situations in order to transmute these energies though ourselves, we have been on that ascension road for a very long time…Above all of this is the energy of love, and this connects us no matter who, what, or where any particular situation is. As someone recently told me, love is the simplified version of our true purpose, and indeed it is. This pronounced experience of giving and receiving love is really going to take over now as never before, as we have evolved to a much higher vibrating state of being. So even though things may get rocky, feel dark one day and light the next, and make us feel bi-polar at times, the love energy always serves to keep us steady, as it can never be affected. This is indeed the energy that over-rides all else. It does not really matter then, what our individual purpose is, or how we can help another, when all we really need do is simply love each other. We will find in times to come, that extreme feelings and actions of love and caring will emit from us like never before, and for me, this is when I indeed feel the best and in the most alignment of all. The energy of love will come to the fore-front like never before in times to come. This is indeed an integral part of our new space.” - Karen Bishop (Wings post, ‘Falling Into the New World,’ 8 December 2009, www.emergingearthangels.com/latest.html).
I said I have mentioned in the Introduction [of book one] that
I believed I was learning unconditional love. I explained that the book was
already the size of two books and that I don't have the time or the experience yet to
add any deeper insights. I have stated that the end of this book [trilogy] is
just the beginning for me, I said. St. Germain smiled and agreed, reaffirming
that everyone will experience this sudden leap in consciousness as I have and
not be able to explain what's
happened. He said that I am relating my experience, my journey, like a travel
writer. I have been through this shift so my experiences will help to support
other people as they also go through the same thing. He asked me, "If
a traveller is on his way to here but halfway decides to go here, to Italy say,
what can he write about the journey to here (the original destination)?" I said
he can't
(because he has not been there). He said, "Yes,
exactly." I am at the beginning of a new journey.
"If you want others to be
happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion."
- Dalai Lama.
I have not yet arrived at a state of unconditional love so I
cannot write about it (I’m not sure I could or would wish to write about
something I am simply expressing and enjoying anyway). I do not, personally,
believe in unconditional love unless it is a way of expressing the kind of
powerful and ecstatic love energy that I felt in my heart for that day a few
years ago in which case self-sacrifice is a natural way of sharing the potent
sweetness that one feels, removing the dam so that the reservoir of love can
flow freely wherever it wishes to. Indeed, I now wonder if THAT was the Christ
energy! Being possessed by the power of love is not such a bad thing (although
I still think the crown of thorns and stuff is taking things a bit too far! And
who wants to see all the kindest and wisest people on this planet martyred? The
Second Coming, however, might just be the rise to power of the Christed Ones,
heralding, in their droves, a New Earth on which love prevails – and I’m all
for that). Osho mentioned that he was like a hollow bamboo through which the
divine melody was played. I believe that he, too, became a channel for a
collective energy. That might well have been the Christ.
"This
is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First
to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet." - Rumi.
I do, however, believe in choosing to express unconditional love in relation to an adored one so I have experienced it and know how beautiful it can be. It is well worth exploring in this regard at least and I do feel that I display unconditional love generally albeit combined with wisdom and will (power) to some degree (applying it to your ‘Designated Asshole,’ however, is another matter altogether!). I expect that is what qualifies me to write this stinker of a book [trilogy]! Spiritually, of course, our aim is to love the God we see in each and every person, to love the One Source that we all are in everything and everyone. On New Year’s Eve, St. Germain explained that the reason he keeps going on about love is that love is the highest form of energy there is. ‘Nothing is higher than love,’ he told us. ‘Why would you choose anything lower? Like frustration? Love is self-fulfilling: you benefit just by giving it.’ He is offering the truth and appealing to our reason rather than our sense of guilt or moral obligation which are negative and illusory. Well, this is the conclusion that each soul eventually arrives at after many lifetimes. We are, however, living in a time when it is possible for billions of people to ‘get it,’ to choose this direct path to Light, this quantum leap that is on offer as a result of Earth’s own Ascension and the expanded energies that are here to assist in this operation. St. Germain added that surrender is the first step to love: that is, surrender to one’s Higher Self. It is a matter of spiritual growth and alchemy, awakening and freedom and has little to do with religion I might add.
"If we love
everyone as a mother loves her dearest child there will be no basis for any
problems to arise because our mind will always be at peace. Love is the real
inner protection against suffering.” - Geshe Kelsang Gyatso (Transform Your Life).
"The
quality of unconditional love denotes that we must love ourselves and others
free from judgement, negativity or restrictions, emanating love at all times
whatever occurs in our realities or whatever intention or energy another
emanates to us. Unconditional love teaches us to accept our inner power and the
strength of the love that we hold within our souls and heart chakras, allowing
us to manifest our power in the most appropriate and caring way. Unconditional
love helps us to communicate with others, our soul and the Creator on a new
level dissolving all relationship and friendship problems and allowing our
communication skills to accelerate and develop. Unconditional love allows us to
connect with humanity, our souls and the Creator free from blockages and fears
allowing a new form of integration and oneness to manifest. It is important to
understand that love is the essence of the Creator and your being; love is
needed on the Earth as a foundation for growth. As we allow ourselves to look
through the eyes of unconditional love we will break down negativity, judgemental
or hateful feelings and thoughts that humanity holds to each other, as well as
allowing loving thoughts to replace the un‑programmed thoughts that exist and
stagnate within the atmosphere of the Earth. Unconditional love allows us to
achieve a major healing process for all on the Earth as we focus on sharing and
receiving love." - Archangel Michael (channelled
through Natalie Glasson, The New Energy Wave of Acceptance, 8 September

At a ‘Heart
Blessing’ in November 2009 St. Germain offered me an ‘everlasting’ butterscotch
sweet (with its shiny golden wrapper) to suck while I was waiting for him to
see to someone else and told me not to speak until I had finished it. I am sure
that he applied some magic, sending me an intention through the sweet! [2]. I soon found myself staring out of the window
and I felt amazed at the crystal clarity of my mind for those few minutes. A
question appeared (‘as if by magic’) in my mind like an eagle in a cloudless
sky: How can I triumph over the problems in my life? Perhaps it was the
singlemost important question I could ask; the question I would ask if only my mind were clear enough! Perhaps it was the
burning question I would like to ask God. Of course, I did not need to speak
for St. Germain to receive the question. I was off on another plane of
consciousness beyond time and space. I was aware of my physical surroundings
but found them much less appealing and so I avoided paying them any attention
in case I lost this moment of clarity and Light. I then received some kind of
solar activation (a level of Light body activation) and St. Germain made a
point of telling me that I have a ‘strong heart and a big heart.’ I went to say
something (forgetting the everlasting sweet that was still in my mouth!) and he
stopped me, saying, “There is nothing to say.” He was showing me yet again that
the Ascended Masters love me for who I really am (they see each of us as we
really are, as beings of Light). I guess it was their verdict after being part
of my life and serving and working with me closely for five months as well as
being an endorsement of these books as well.
Specifically,
I believe, it was because I could not afford the solar activation from Isis
earlier that day and St. Germain seemed to give it to me anyway. I was also
getting over a cold after refusing to put the heating on in my flat. I had not
paid for last winter’s bill (which had been estimated previously and then,
months after I had paid the original bill, suddenly trebled) and the Ascended
Masters, as an example during a talk, told us, ‘You chose to have the heating
on,’ or something. They explained that one ought therefore to be grateful for
bills because we have agreed to this energy exchange. Gratitude shifts bills,
they said (they overlooked the fact that we should have had free energy a
hundred years ago which the Elite continues to suppress; what’s more, prices
have rocketed instead). Artists have always drawn the short straw in terms of
material subsistence. Writing books to increase people’s awareness whilst
struggling to survive in a Capitalist society even after having had a traumatic
childhood and later losing my musical outlet certainly has not been an easy
endeavour (endurance test).
Prior to
the healing, I was called upon to explain to someone what had happened after St.
Germain had advised me (back in June) on how he could assist me in ridding
myself of the condition from which I suffer. St. Germain said I had cleverly
(unconsciously) made myself ill because I don’t want to be here and he defined
the illness as toxicity in my lymph nodes which causes fatigue and a resulting
difficulty in paying attention. Well, that did not work out and I was disappointed
and upset but not enraged or anything. In fact, a week after this Heart
Blessing, I experienced a shift within myself and found that I felt only love
for St. Germain, probably as a result of the healing energy I had received for
my condition and my Inner Child/emotional state. [Retrospective note: I later learned that this was one of two related illnesses from which I was suffering and this one was cured by the Ascended Masters while I was meditating alone one day in May 2011, apparently].
“As
humankind drew deeper into heavier and denser physical matter, men and women
became concerned only with their physical appetites, losing contact with
angelic beings and the Sun-beings, and almost losing contact with the solar
force; almost, but not entirely. The secrets of the solar force were very
jealously guarded. The only way this knowledge could be passed down through the
ages was through the initiates or the sages. If you study the ancient
philosophers with a certain amount of understanding and knowledge, you will
recognise in their teaching knowledge of the solar force. Had the masses
possessed the knowledge, or the power which the knowledge would give, they
would have destroyed themselves. For all that (you may know from legend), there
have been occasions when the mysteries became known to certain priests who were
not strong and pure in love, and these priests conveyed the mysteries in the
wrong way to others. Then the power, the solar force, was used destructively.
This was not intended at first, but when an individual's lower self was not
under control it rose in selfish desire for power over other human beings.” -

Further, I
was given the task (and test) of conveying truth to (and about) someone that he
did not want to hear which made him so angry that he turned violent towards me
(but, thankfully, the situation did not have a chance to turn physical). To me,
this was as natural as it would be on the fifth dimension whilst he reacted
like a savage beast in the third dimension. He was totally ungrounded,
uncentred and out of control. I stayed true to my ideals and expressed my
higher nature rather than being pulled down to express my ego to react in fear.
It was a job well done I felt. Other people were also involved and the right
result for everyone was achieved. I was able to forgive and forget. I no longer
allow negativity to stick to me. I release or let go of it. I owe it to myself
to be happy if possible!
The ‘big,
strong heart’ statement was also related to the animal with which I most
identify - the leopard, or panther – as a symbol of my heart and inner being. According
to Avia Venefica,“the panther
is a symbol of courage, valour and power.” She explains: “Individuals with
panther totems are usually people who come into this world with a spiritual
knowing - a deeper understanding of spiritual things. These people often are
very intuitive, psychic, and
many are artistically inclined.” The black panther “is a symbol of the mother,
the dark moon and the power of the night. The black panther encourages us to
understand the shadow powers available to us all, to acknowledge these powers
and to eliminate our fears of
the darkness. When the black panther totem appears in your life, it is also a
symbol of releasing your passions,
and starting a new phase of your life. A phase in which you are discovering
your desires, and living your dreams. When the panther animal totem comes to us
(whether it be in the form of images or real sightings) we must begin paying
attention to the strength of our inner being - our internal fortitude, and the
condition of our spiritual strength and valour.
Panthers also beckon us to consider our darker side - analyse this side of ourselves
and determine its motivation.”

Well,
I definitely forgive all of my enemies. My concern is with dissuading them from
continuing (their focus is, I believe, persuading me to move out!). I want my
neighbours, all of them, everyone everywhere, to be happy…just not at the
expense of my happiness. The people living next door to me want their happiness
regardless of mine and a few of them seek their happiness at my expense. One
can tolerate only so much (if you do not believe that hearing people coughing
falsely and loudly through a thin wall each and every day for months at a time,
as a form of abuse, is not torture, for example, I assure you that it is). A
big heart is open, loving and generous of course. It relates to embracing the
Oneness of life. A strong heart, I suggest, is required to defend your
principles, stand your ground and speak your truth (and protect your space!).
It relates to individuality. Neither am I easily manipulated or influenced nor
do I care for anyone’s approval, whoever they may be. I have somehow managed to remain on
the edge of society. I have tended to use the System rather than allowing it to
use me. I observed how it really tightened up during the 90s and how many people
were forced to choose: they were either dragged in or pushed out altogether. I
have remained true to myself albeit by making certain sacrifices in order to
preserve relative freedom. [Retrospective note: I have since learned that this was negative karma from my life as an aristocrat during the Spanish
inquisition.].

Whilst
carrying my cat back from the vet’s after a post-op check up I was recalling
how brightly I shone after that healing and activation. I could have used a
little of that energy. I had a cold and found the journey by bus and foot with
my heavy, sulking and protesting feline companion a struggle. Not long after I
reached the bus stop (on a dual carriageway) to return home the street lights
came on which is the first (possibly second) time I have ever seen this. The
lights were dim at first and then suddenly glowed brightly. It occurred to me
that such activations have a similar effect: they switch the light on and one
may, indeed, glow brightly for the first day, but then it might be a while
before the light shines fully and consistently. One must also remember that all
of the ascension tools we are using and the activations we are receiving are in
preparation for the planetary awakening after or at the end of 2012. A very
powerful light will be switched on, shall we say, and, unless we have awakened
to the Light (the ‘Christ’ as some call it) within us, the contrast, the jump
from dark to light, density to intensity, is likely to be difficult to cope
with. We are all being prepared on some level and all will receive an
opportunity to raise themselves to the light that is going to shine upon our
world.
After the
12:12 DNA activation in December which, as I stated earlier, Isis Herself
conducted, I suddenly found myself crying. Some anger with God, or the
Universe, had surfaced when the activation meditation commenced and I quickly
transcended it partly because we were asked not to think of anything! I was not
willing to tolerate any negative thought anyway. At the end, however, I had one
compelling thought which was that I wanted the nightmare to end! Afterwards,
some of the people attending shared their thoughts or experiences and I kept
quiet. I was holding back the tears. I couldn’t just ball my eyes out in front
of a room full of people although I am comfortable enough with short bursts
(for example, hearing this Ascended One known as St. Germain say the word
‘surrender’ at a later date induced in me such a deep feeling of longing for
peace and freedom that I burst into tears and then quickly slammed the lid
closed again. At other times, the divine energies accompanying St. Germain in
the room have themselves caused shifts and released tears. Being in the
presence of God can have that effect on one! Remembrance of our true home,
beyond this long sleep, is about as emotional as it gets. Another way of
putting it: we become unglued where the eternal glue that is divine love is
missing). So, I told myself, ‘No, don’t,’ even though it was a powerful
experience that I felt should be shared. Eventually, however, I changed my mind
and suddenly announced, ‘OK, I will share this with you. The reason I can’t
stop crying (I was still holding the tears in) is that I just want the
nightmare to end!’ Actually, I think I avoided explaining this further in case
I did actually cry! I did, however, add, “Not for me, for everybody.” Well, I
meant not for myself alone but for everyone. Yet, I also meant that I want this
whole paradigm of third-dimensional experience to end, preferably to be erased
from the cosmic map altogether! I was thinking about this earlier today
actually. It is not the material plane itself that is the problem. It’s the
lack, the limitation, the coldness, the extremes, the stress and the suffering,
the separation from the realms of Light, Love, Abundance, Serenity and Eternal
Joy. St. Germain was back and he gave me another ‘knowing smile.’ “So be it,”
he added confidently (as though we were all playing our parts in a play).
“It
is only when you take full responsibility for everything you see in your world
’the good,’ ‘the bad,’ ‘the ugly,’ do you have the power to change it.” - Elizabeth
Anne Hill.
A few
months later, God spoke to me directly for the first time ever (in this life
anyway). The reason I’m sure it was God because I was deep in communion with
the Source during my meditation, something which I am fortunate enough to be
able to experience now. The energy of the communication had the same feel and
seemed to be one and the same. It was an expression of that communion, a
message conveyed to me from its source which is unlike any other I have known
in meditation and, of course, which ‘arrived’ in my field of conscious
awareness in response to my intention to commune with the Source. I was told that it is not just me who is suffering but
that everyone is suffering similarly. In other words, it is really a collective nightmare as much as
anything. Jeshua said that the Prince of Darkness rules this world and that’s
how it is until love sets us free.
After all
the hugging, everyone danced to a tune that had no rhythm and someone pointed
out that I was not moving very much! Just before leaving our presence
(physically), however, St. Germain then slyly switched the music to ‘Don’t Stop
Till You Get Enough’ which was a relief since I always enjoy dancing to
Michael’s music, even the old stuff. What I did not know, however, was that St.
Germain had somehow sent me some more magic (no doubt with Michael Jackson’s
help!). For, on the following day, I felt an urge to dance to some tracks on
the Dangerous album. During the
second or third song I listened to, I suddenly burst into tears. I was totally
taken over by its impact and basically threw myself to the floor, curled up in
a foetal position, as the tears poured out of me uncontrollably. It felt a bit
like a cannonball being blasted out of some dark place inside myself. I believe
that this was whatever I had managed to keep under control the day before after
the activation. It was all over within ten minutes yet it left me exhausted for
the rest of the day and my eyes were still stinging later that evening. It has
left me wondering if the energy that was released has been the source of all my
nightmares! We’ll see! Additionally, it has occurred to me that Michael’s music
is channelled clearly through his own Inner Child and therefore appeals to the
Inner Child in those people who respond on this level. For me, it is both
healing and liberating for the soul.
I can only
say that this whole process has been about preparing to set out on that
journey. I cannot discuss the new unconditional love and happiness into which I
am (potentially) being born. It may take many years to embody that kind of
love, who knows? Until re-reading this just now, I thought that St. Germain
meant that I was heading in a certain direction, perhaps only going so far in
my journey, my growth in relation to these personal crises, but that I am now
changing direction and embarking on a new journey, to a new destination, which
is further than the original one. Yet, it seems that what he really meant is
that I would not be able to explain the jump, how my journey suddenly altered
its course and how I got from the Conclusion to Book One (believing that love
might hold the key…naively, I considered in the Conclusion to Book Two) to the
more mature outlook of the third Conclusion (knowing that love is the answer to
everything even if I have yet to explore this principle fully) basically! Yep,
just one c-r-a-z-y journey! This is a continuing journey but one that is now
firmly anchored in higher ideals (indeed, a higher plane of consciousness no
less!). So, this is the beginning not the end of the journey! It is the
beginning of a new life…and the dawn of a new world, a new Earth! And, since
the 12:12, our connection to God has been cleared. There is really nothing to
prevent us from exploring our relationship to Source any longer. An age of
communion and co-creatorship is upon us.
“…there is
a new world coming, a completely new point of view, a completely new stand
point. There is much love in the air and this is the change; the love is
coming. The energy of love will flow. By the end of the year there will be a
completely different perspective on life, a whole new point of view, there’s a
new world coming. For those of you that have been working on yourselves you
will be able to see the changes in your life. The challenges you are facing
become completely different and they are non-the-less challenges. Once again we
speak of love for love is the answer, it is always the answer. Wherever there
is a problem there is an absence of love.” - Kryon (‘Love is coming,’channelled through David Brown, 10 September 2009, Vienna, Austria, www.kryon.org.za/ChannellingNo430.htm).
And
this is why all this contemplation of unconditional love and its place in the
context of human conflict is of great import to our lives today. For, as
Bashar, further states:
“Your world
is preparing to experience a level of unconditional love in the near future,
unprecedented on your planet. Even in ancient times, with civilisations that
were far more connected, far more in remembrance of their connection to Spirit.
Never before on Earth have you gone through the darkness to the Light in this
way. And the remembrance shall be profound by having taken that path. And the
love, once regenerated, shall never be lost again.” (www.bashar.org).
“Your
presence is necessary not only for your own evolution, but also to help the
deeply sleeping multitudes who are, themselves, due to take this momentous
evolutionary step. It is a move out of attitudes that are self-centred,
defensive, competitive, fearful and confrontational into ones that are loving,
cooperative, and harmonious. All must and will take this step, and to do
so it is essential to release all those ancient unloving attitudes that in the
illusion, for your own safety and well-being, seem so normal and sensible. You
are receiving enormous assistance with this task from those in the spiritual
realms, so that you can demonstrate these loving attitudes and behaviours
continuously. Many of you are already doing so most effectively, and you must continue
to do so in every situation and interaction, even if it seems that you are
being denounced, threatened, or attacked. To respond to those kinds of
situations in any other way just draws you back into the illusion. It takes
great courage to demonstrate unconditional love constantly, but you chose to be
here to do that, and you most definitely have that courage. When you feel
doubt, anxiety, or fear, turn inwards and ask for help because your guides,
your angels, and the Holy Spirit will respond instantly to your call for help;
that is why they accompany you and watch over you at all times. Yes, you may
still experience those doubts, anxieties, or fears, but you will also realise
that you are not alone, but constantly supported so that you can maintain your
energy field as a calm, peaceful, and loving space in the centre of any storm
that may be raging around you. You are love, you are peace, you are stability,
and you can and will demonstrate this in spite of any misgivings you may feel,
because you know
that your support will not fail you – in fact it will strengthen and
intensify.” - Saul (channelled through John Smallman, ‘You are love, you are
peace, you are stability,’ 7 September 2011, www.johnsmallman.wordpress.com).
Oh boy! All
of the books I am writing feel like mountains of various heights to me. We go
up and then down the other side to arrive at the end, the conclusion. Well, as
you can see, this book [and this trilogy] doesn’t really have a conclusive end.
It does, indeed, remind me of that rocket being erected on the launch pad…ready
for takeoff. This mountain goes up…and then as we reach the summit we do not
look down but leave the past behind and carry on going up. Our feet leave the
ground as we reach for the Sun. Now, where did I leave those wings?
“In these magnificent times of great change, always
remember that we are here with you. Those of the higher realms are here with
you in every Now Moment. We have never left you. It is the illusion of the
third dimensional frequency that leads you to believe that you are alone. In
each Now Moment, when you stray from the love of your Sacred Heart, breathe
deeply and return your consciousness into your Sacred Heart. Return to this
love, beloved ones. It is here in your heart that you find your deepest
connection to your God Self.It is within
your heart that you will find your deepest connection to all of the beings of
the higher realms who are here to assist you. Never doubt that we are with you.
We are all One.” – Archangel Michael (channelled through Michelle
Coutant, ‘The Oneness of All Creation,’ 9 November 2010, www.transformingradiance.com).
What I can
say, however, regarding my own path, is that I have certainly become more
heart-centred since 9 September 2009 (which, according to Archangel Michael was
about this). When I am more centred in the heart, and therefore spirit, I feel
less like reacting or defending myself. I also do not feel affected by things
so much. It is a stepping stone to feeling more love and therefore allowing the
power of the spirit to be the hub round which everything revolves in the midst
of the holographic illusion – and, ultimately, being awake in the dream. And now,
writing some months after writing this conclusion, I can also say that, since
the energy boost on 10 October 2010, I have definitely noticed that my ‘memory
of my Oneness to God and to All’ has ‘increased as a result of this activation,’
which Maureen Moss wrote in the World Puja Network mid-month newsletter (‘After the 10-10-10: Active Magic,’ 14 October
2010), “was the point of this particular magnificent activation.” She adds:
“Now you are asked to take your memories of Oneness and bring them into an
active state in the Now.” My awareness keeps coming back to my relationship
with Source and to the loving energy within my heart. This is a fabulous
experience because, however much I lose my way or get stuck in my head (and,
believe me I do!), I keep returning to the inner reality of the spirit and
remember that we are living in a dream. Consequently, I can no longer get
through the day without frequenting the Love Inn wherein lies the bliss of my
very core. ‘What are you having?’ ‘I’ll have a pint of bliss please!’ Yeah, the
usual: the bliss is there, the love and the joy and magic. Just remembering
them and tuning in at various times throughout the day, is uplifting even if I
do not actually manage to drink much of it. Sipping it here and there keeps the
momentum going and one’s frequency afloat and mood relatively upbeat.
“Unconditional
love is really about wanting so much to remain in connection with your Source
of love that you deliberately choose thoughts that allow your connection (no
matter what manifestations may be happening nearby). And when you are able to
control your point of attraction by deliberately choosing better-feeling
thoughts, the conditions that surround you have to change. The Law of Attraction says that they must.” – Abraham (Manifest Your Desires by Esther and Jerry Hicks, Hay House, Inc., Carlsbad, CA., U.S., 2008, p.201).
The Ascended Masters
That simple
practice of blessing people which I mentioned in the Conclusion to Book 1 has
now deepened, through conscious effort, into the richer energy of forgiveness
which feels much more like expressing my higher self directly, or allowing this
natural quality of the Spirit to shine into my consciousness and, therefore,
life. I now feel thankful for the opportunity to feel and practice this in
order to restore my awareness of who I really Am as pure Spirit. What is it
that keeps us human beings apart from the higher vibrations of the eternal
Self? We are tangled up in a world which does not express this inner Light
because we have forgotten what we are
Love, that we are Light. We have
identified with what is outside of us, or what appears before us, and we give
all of our attention to that world, or that nightmare in which our experiences
tend to be dark because there is insufficient Light shining forth from our
hearts, from the Source, because we are not feeling it enough or giving
sufficient attention to it.
Our
resistance to lighter energies is derived from accepting and acknowledging the
world of concrete form and lower density. We have slowly spiralled to a
standstill over the course of many lifetimes until it has become unbearable to
be reminded of the sweetness we can no longer sustain and, finally, we have
even forgotten it exists, or we automatically block it out. Survival mode has
become our default setting and, therefore, we never remember to change gears,
to create and expand and move with that forward momentum. We are either
stationary or going round in circles. Perhaps the two alternate as each time we
accelerate we forget to take the handbrake off as well. So we never even have a
chance to consider the option of changing gear because we must be rolling
forwards for them to have much effect.We are simply too distracted with everything in our external lives.
“As long as
you are more aware of what you do not
want regarding this situation, what you do
want cannot come to you.” (Ask and it is
Given. Learning to Manifest Your Desires by Esther and Jerry Hicks, Hay House, Inc., Carlsbad, CA., U.S., 2004, p.50).
It is
important to understand the basic premise that if we give our attention to what
we don’t want, which is the shadow of what we do want, we are creating the
opposite of our desire, as Abraham teaches. Focusing on the shadow, which is
the lack of what we want to experience, brings darkness into our lives. The
reason for this is that it involves the energies of fear and resistance. So, we
might be thinking about one thing yet feeling something quite different which
is why many of us tried and failed to use positive affirmations. Abraham
suggests that we can easily determine what our ‘vibrational offering’ is
through how we are feeling. Are we choosing ‘better-feeling thoughts’ or simply
observing what has appeared in our lives and therefore paying it so much
attention that we’re stuck with it? Whatever we are predominantly thinking
about moves towards us in our physical and material lives. Accepting and owning
everything in our lives is therefore a very practical matter. That is really
the choice that takes the handbrake off and restores our natural power as
co-creators. So, I now say that I take ownership for everything in my life and
accept that I created it for one reason or another (such as, living
unconsciously, spinning out of control and identifying with external
circumstances). Sprinkling a little gratitude and grace on top makes this
energy sweeter. The whole point, really, is to flow smoothly - emotionally - with
the current of life so that the reality we are consciously endeavouring to
create can make its way towards us (dancing with the Universal Dinner Lady as
Barefoot Doctor might refer to it!). This is the inner work of Ascension which
requires that we release tension, breathe through it and do whatever we can to
be in high spirits so that any negativity in our lives does not drag us down.
“Have faith
that you’re open-minded enough to accept that you’re the cause, if you believe
in effects; accept responsibility for everything that has, or has not, ever
happened to you. So that, finally, you recognise your unmitigated super powers,
claim them and rock the world!” –
Mike Dooley (Notes from the Universe,
Book 3, TUT Enterprises, Inc., 2005, Florida, U.S., p.117).
Once you
are spinning out of control it takes a radical shift of consciousness,
involving a break from everything one believes in, to regain the centre. Achieving
such a feat may well require a crisis. Indeed, the major stumbling block for
many people is that the ego’s logic tells them that the physical reality
outside of themselves is all that exists. Many people will therefore not even
entertain the notion that there exists a much greater world deep within
themselves, in the Being who is dreaming all of this. Yet, that is the only
source of joy and creative power there is. As I also mentioned previously, we
have to stop associating the feelings of love, gratitude and forgiveness -
which are expressions of divine energy and therefore states of being - with
Christianity and rejecting them as ineffectual moral codes or signs of weakness
and religious delusion. Forget all of that. Break open the egg of fearful
beliefs that may once have served to protect us from the harsh conditions
outside and allow the chick to finally hatch, the Spirit to shine forth. And
stretch thy wings and fly! And always remember:
"Happiness is a continuation of
happenings which are not resisted." - Deepak Chopra.
Each
person’s Ascension path resembles a mountain; indeed, a path that winds up the
side of this mountain towards a higher state of consciousness. As we approach
the summit, we find that there is less density (our mountain, or heap of
‘stuff’ from past lives) and more Light. The air is thinner and our minds are
clearer. We also have the advantage of looking back at our experiences form a
higher vantage point with the possibility of seeing them for what they are and
how they all fit together and facilitate our upwards ascent towards the peak,
or centre, the Sun of who we really Are.
As we move
upwards on our journey back to Reality, we are in a better position to piece
things together, to understand situations because we have been dealing with
certain themes and endeavouring to release emotions relating to specific
issues. So our outlook matures with time and wisdom results from experience. We
may not remember all the alleys, all the nooks and crannies, in the labyrinth,
but, intuitively, we know where everything fits, how the projections form on
the canvas of life, the tests they present, they gifts they conceal and the
reminders to raise our frequency and feel in the heart that they truly are. We
have a sixth sense. We are rooted in that strength and wisdom which was born of
being lost and suffering in a hostile environment. Even if we could remember, we have transcended the
form, learned the underlying lessons and made the necessary shifts, to take the
right turns and find our way out by the quickest route (which is foreseeing, or
knowing, where each thought and action leads so that we never actually enter
the maze in the first place). What’s past is past. We take what strength and
wisdom we have gained from our trials and apply them to our new lives. And we
also take with us, of course, the gifts of joy and truth, freedom and love,
power and Oneness that were ours all along as expressions of God/Goddess.
Whoever you
are, reading this book, the Light really has returned after a 13,000-year
absence (and more fully than it has for much, much longer than that), we really
are co-creating a New Earth and we really are loved by many unseen beings who
would love to help but cannot lift a finger until we ask them for assistance.
Consequently, as Osho says, there is every reason to celebrate, to be loving,
to be grateful. Happiness is but a decision away he assures us. Oh yeah, and
let’s not forget, a little laughter goes a long way…

man, but I am a smooth man.’
(Parting words of ‘Take a Pew for Today’s Lesson’ Anglican sermon performed in Beyond The Fringe, written by Alan
Bennett, Jonathan Miller, Dudley Moore and Peter Cook, 1963. The biblical
quotation is from Genesis 27:11).
Foot notes
1. In an article titled
‘While On The Way To Ascension’ (channelled through Ronna Herman, February
2010, www.ronnastar.com), Archangel Michael suggests that we have all commenced some way up the mountain
but that those who become embroiled in competition, status, selfishness and
gossip through their egos choose to remain in the low-level village where they
are either content with the status quo or afraid to risk venturing further
upthe mountain. Others are not so
impressed and move on together to seek higher ways of living which also bring
new challenges. Some may settle and establish a new village while others are
determined to reach the summit and see what lies beyond it.
2. St. Germain says that while
they, the Ascended Masters, serve us, we also play our part and work together.
However, their intentions appear to be effective when we do not know what is
happening. Somehow that diminishes the potency and spoils it. I would say that
it is necessary for them to catch us unawares to work with us heart-to-heart
whilst bypassing our minds
3. She added, however, that he was stupid and ignorant like a baby! He was
attacked by a pack of dogs after lighting a torch thereby scaring them. After
this episode, he discovered that, as night falls on Pandora, the plants
themselves light up, some even as one steps upon them.
