A PRELUDE TO THE COSMIC MIND

A PRELUDE TO THE COSMIC MIND

A prelude to the cosmic mind.
Let all come here to rejoice in their Beingness
and their purpose in Light.
Above all, come here in Love."

We as humans were not meant to suffer. We were not meant to suffer from dis-ease or any other type of pain. Even though we have been experiencing these unnatural conditions for a very, very long time, we no longer need to tolerate such out of balance! All suffering is caused by the illusion of separateness, which generates fear and self-hatred, eventually causing illness.

A long time ago on Lemuria, every person from first grade on knew how to heal themselves and others. It is not difficult! In fact, it is incredibly easy! With a small amount of instruction and practice, anyone can "remember" how to heal.

The ability to heal ourselves and others is encoded into our very being. On Lemuria, everyone knew various methods of healing, some of which are enjoying a resurgence today. By the time Atlantis was in the middle of its strife and turmoil, most of us made a conscious decision to "turn off" or "forget" our ability to heal. We felt this was necessary because the Earth (and us) were going into a 13,000-year period of "darkness", and we didn't want that knowledge misused. We placed seals on our hands and feet so that our healing abilities would be blocked. We also blocked our memories so that our knowledge would not be used for "darkness."

We are finally coming out of that period of darkness and it is time for all of us to remember. For the last 13,000 years, we have been so unconscious, we don't even remember that we have forgotten anything! But that is now in the past — it is time to remember!

There were three keys to healing on Lemuria: Love, Listen and Remember.

Love the person you are working on. This sounds simple, but it's not! This is not the sexual love that two people have for each other. You must unconditionally love the other person — without judgment. There can be no harbored resentment, anger, jealousy, or any of the other imbalanced emotions that we've experienced for so long. We must totally accept them for who they are — people on the same path as us. Whether they are at the exact same point along that path does not matter. We must always honor where they are and what they had to go through to get to where they are. Paths are not linear. While it may look like we're ahead of someone else on the path, they may actually be WAY ahead of us!!

Listen to what their Higher Self is telling your Higher Self. Every person's body/Higher Self knows exactly what they need. Their Higher Self is the easiest way for them to communicate that need to you. Sometimes the message may be surprising — they may tell you not to do anything for them and that too must be honored! If we try to heal someone because of our desire for them to be healed, and if they do not truly want to be healed, then we are doing them a disservice by forcing our will on them. This can be a difficult lesson indeed! If we learn to listen with an open heart, with unconditional love, we will know exactly what to do.

Remember that we all know how to heal, or do anything else we want to. Each of us has all knowledge! We've been (intentionally) misled into believing that we need someone else to "save" us, or "heal" us, and we have been believing that we are powerless to help ourselves. That is not true! We are all Gods, whether we are a drunk lying in the street, a beggar asking for a handout, or an Ascended Master. We are all equal.

Native Americans say we are going from the 4th World to the 5th World. Other cultures say we are going from the 3rd Dimension to the 4th Dimension. They are the same thing! Native Americans reference the Great Void to the 1st World — other cultures reference the Great Void to the 0th Dimension.

According to the ways of the 4th World, there were secrets. Ancient Mystery Schools would instruct their initiates to keep their information secret among the inner or outer circles, as they felt appropriate. (The inner circles were taught everything − the outer circles were taught some of the information.) They believed that sacred knowledge should only be shared with those they deemed worthy. Knowledge was orally communicated from one generation to the next. That may have been appropriate then, but not now!

A perfect example of these "secrets" is the Lord's Prayer. We have all been taught ½ of the full prayer. According to The Essene Gospel of Peace, the following is the full prayer:

"And pray every day to your Heavenly Father and Earthly Mother, that your soul becomes as perfect as your Heavenly Father's holy spirit is perfect, and that your body becomes as perfect as the body of your Earthly Mother is perfect. For if you understand, feel, and do the commandments, then all for which you pray to your Heavenly Father and your Earthly Mother will be given you. For the wisdom, the love, and the power of God are above all.

"After this manner, therefore, pray to your Heavenly Father: 'Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.'

"And after this manner pray to your Earthly Mother: 'Our Mother which art upon earth, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, and thy will be done in us, as it is in thee. As thou sendest every day thy angels, send them to us also. Forgive us our sins, as we atone all our sins against thee. And lead us not into sickness, but deliver us from all evil, for thine is the earth, the body, and the health. Amen.'"

Isn't it interesting that Jesus would pray to "Father Sky" and "Mother Earth"?

In the 5th World, there are no secrets! Everything is sacred and all information must be shared with everyone! The only way any of us will make it to the 5th World is if all of us make it to the 5th World!

As we enter the 5th World, it is much more important to be aware of our thoughts. In the 5th World, all thoughts, wishes, desires, etc are manifested very quickly. It is therefore imperative that we only think positive thoughts, both for ourselves and for others. The thoughts we have held and the words we have repeatedly used have created our life and experiences up to this point. No more! We've gotten that T-shirt! What we are choosing to think and say, today, this moment, will create tomorrow and the next day, and the next week, and the next month, and.... The point of power is always in the present moment. This is where we begin to make changes. We can begin to let the old nonsense go. Right now! The smallest beginning will make a big difference!

When you were a tiny baby, you were pure joy and love. You knew how important you were, you felt you were the center of the universe. You had such courage, you asked for what you wanted, and you expressed all your feelings openly. You loved yourself totally, every part of your body, including your feces. You knew you were perfect. And that is the truth of your being. All the rest is learned nonsense and can be unlearned.

How often have we said, "That's the way I am," or, "That's the way it is." What we are really saying is that it is what we "believe to be true for us." Usually what we believe is only someone else's opinion we have accepted and incorporated into our own belief system. It fits in with other things we believe. If we were taught as a child that the world is a frightening place, then everything we hear that fits in with that belief, we will accept as true for us. "Don't trust strangers," "Don't go out at night," "People cheat you," etc. On the other hand, if we were taught early in life that the world is a safe and joyous place, then we would believe other things. "Love is everywhere," "People are so friendly," "Money comes to me easily," and so on. Life experiences mirror our beliefs.

We seldom sit down and question our beliefs. For instance, I could ask myself, "Why do I believe it is difficult for me to learn? Is that really true? Is it true for me now? Where did that belief come from? Do I still believe it because a first-grade teacher told it to me over and over? Would I be better off if I dropped that belief?"

Stop for a moment and be aware of your thoughts. What are you thinking right now? If thoughts shape your life and experiences, would you want this thought to become true for you? If it is a thought of worry or anger or hurt or revenge, how do you think this thought will come back to you? If we want a joyous life, we must think joyous thoughts. Whatever we send out mentally or verbally will come back to us in like form.

Take a little time to listen to the words you say. If you hear yourself saying something three times, write it down. It has become a pattern for you. At the end of the week, look at the list you have made and you will see how your words fit your experiences. Be willing to change your words and thoughts and watch your life change. The way to control your life is to control your choice of words and thoughts. No one thinks in your mind but you.

If you are ready to heal yourself and others, be prepared for quite a journey! Any illness, whether it is psychological or physical, will lead you on a journey of self-exploration and discovery that will completely change your life from the inside out!

Every so often, a being comes along that has "special powers." The only difference between them and us is THEY REMEMBER and they are not afraid to let the world know! We all have special powers! There's just as much God in each of us as there is outside of us.

As Marianne Williamson wrote in her book A Return to Love: Reflections On The Principles of A Course In Miracles, page 165:

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and famous?"

"Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of the creator. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

"We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us. It's in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

As you take this journey, how you perceive yourself and others will change. You will see how your actions and belief systems affect and help create your reality for better and for worse. (My definition of reality is "that part of the illusion which we forgot is an illusion.") Once you see this, you realize you have the power to change the things you don't like and enhance the things you do like about your life. That takes a lot of courage, personal search, work and honesty. It is not an easy path, but it is unquestionably a worthwhile and exciting one!

Go Within, Not Without

During the 13,000-year period of "darkness" that we are (finally) coming out of, it was necessary to have gurus to keep the knowledge intact until we returned to the "light." Now that we are waking up after the long night, not only is it no longer necessary to have gurus, but it is actually dangerous! There will come a time very soon when we will have no one to turn to. It will be only us and God, and we must remember that we have all knowledge inside us. It will be very important to have a very strong, healthy relationship with God for us as individuals to survive. Instead of seeking answers from others, it is time that we turn to our own inner guidance.

To become a healer is no easy task, just as it is no easy task to do anything well. We need spiritual as well as technical training. We must go through self-initiated tests that challenge the weak parts of our personality and develop our creative focus, longing, and intent. We may experience these tests as coming from the outside, but in fact that is not true. We create them to see if we are ready and able to handle the energy, power, and clarity that we are developing in our own energy system as we grow as a healer. This energy and power must be used with integrity, honesty and love, for cause and effect are always at work in every action. We always get back what we put out. That is what is called karma. As the energy flowing through us as a healer increases, so does our power. If we put any of this power to a negative use, we will eventually experience that same negativity coming back at us.

Soon after I learned Reiki, I "accidentally" gave myself a test — I poured boiling water over my hand. Of course, it immediately turned bright red and swelled up with second degree burns. Within five minutes of using Reiki, all the redness was gone, all the swelling was gone, all the pain was gone. I then knew beyond all doubt that God is in each of us.

This doesn't mean we have to be a saint all our lives. As John Fire Lame Deer said:

"A medicine man shouldn't be a saint. He should experience and feel all the ups and downs, the despair and joy, the magic and the reality, the courage and the fear, of his people. He should be able to sink as low as a bug, or soar as high as an eagle. Unless he can experience both, he is no good as a medicine man."

The simplest kind of guidance comes every day, and many times a day in the form of discomfort. If we just listened to this guidance and followed it, we would rarely get sick. In other words, attending to the discomfort we feel puts us back into balance and therefore health. This discomfort can be in our body in physical form, like physical discomfort or pain; it could be on any level of our being — emotional, mental, or spiritual. It could be in any area of our life.

Ask yourself the following questions: "Where is the discomfort in your body/life? How long have you known about it? What is it saying to you? What have you done about it?"

If you answer those questions honestly, you will find how much you disregard the best tool you have to keep yourself healthy, happy and wise. Any discomfort anywhere in your body/life is a direct message to you about how you are out of alignment with your true self.

Following guidance on this simple level means to rest when you are tired, to eat when you are hungry, to not eat when you are not hungry, and to eat what your body needs when it needs it. It means to take care of or change a life circumstance that bothers you.

As you become more attentive to your personal needs by listening to internal messages that come to you in the form of discomfort, you will become more balanced and clear. This will bring more health to you. The practice of listening-in will also bring on the phenomena of direct or verbal guidance. You may start receiving very simple verbal directives from an "inner" voice − a voice that you hear inside yourself, but that you recognize as coming from beyond yourself. There are two important points about learning to follow guidance. The first is that you will need to practice receiving guidance for yourself before you are qualified to receive it for others. The second is that the information or directives that you get may be very simple and seem totally unimportant at first. In fact, it may seem like a complete waste of time to follow any of it. There is a reason for this. Later, when receiving important information about another person's life or specific information about illness, you may get information that doesn't make any sense or seems irrelevant or just plain wrong. It may be, but most of the time this is the rational mind at work. The information coming through a clear person is often beyond what the rational mind of the person can understand.

There is within every human personality a child. Everyone can remember how it was to be a child, to feel the inner freedom of a child and to experience life in a simple way. This inner child is very wise. It feels connected to all life. It knows love without question. This inner child gets covered up as we become adults and try to live by our rational minds only. This limits us. It is this inner child that must be uncovered to begin to follow guidance. You must return to the loving, trusting wisdom of your inner child to develop the ability to receive and follow guidance. We all long for freedom — it is through the child that it will be gained. After allowing this inner child of yours more freedom, you can then begin a dialogue between the adult and the child parts of your personality. The dialogue will integrate the free and loving part of your personality with the sophisticated adult.

We are all guided by spiritual teachers who speak to us in our dreams, through our intuition, and eventually, if we listen, they speak to us directly, perhaps through writing at first, then through sound, voice or concepts. These teachers are full of love and respect for us. Communicating directly with them changes your life, for you will find that you are fully and completely loved. You are deserving and worthy of this love. You deserve health, happiness and fulfillment in your life. You can create it. You can learn, step by step, the process to change your life and make it full. There are many paths to this fullness. Ask for guidance as to where you need to go, or which path you need to follow now, and you will be guided. Whether you have a life-threatening illness, a marital difficulty, a problem of the will, depression — or whether you are struggling with difficult situations in your chosen area of work — you can start changing now, right in this moment. You can realign yourself with your deepest longing and the greatest good you have to offer yourself and others. Simply ask for help. Your requests will be answered.
 

PS: The illusion of separateness is the real cause, all right, and the desire to receive for the self alone is the off shoot of it.

Since the illusion can not be dispelled immediately, then we should try to receive in order to share, this is the remedy, because once that we begin bestowing, instead of receiving, our eyes became opened and we become aware of the unity of all life.

This is a Kabbalistic secret, which needs to be given to all mankind!
