I Hear Your Protests

Completed 12:00 pm, 8/6/2009, 6 Manik/Deer (composition info, including Mayan calendar date)


While it's not meant to make anyone uncomfortable, only to be honest, I hear your protests, your disagreements, you know.  The tie we have works both ways.  Though only sometimes I answer, know that you are heard.  How could it be otherwise, when all are one?  (We all actually hear each others' thoughts; we are just not accustomed to listening.*)
☏
This post will likely arouse a bit of discomfort with its plain talk.  There is absolutely no desire to offend or minimize anyone, here. We all have an ego, which can get pretty feisty, even when no offense is offered, so that's fair warning.**

Perhaps I just feel like being an ass, but I will also offer a little reminder: irritation, itself, is a sign of not being centered.  There, I play the ass, you get the benefit.
☺
Some feel I take too much on the self, purporting to speak for God.  No, I do not speak for God, not at all.  God simply uses me to speak.  There is quite a difference.  Do you see it?  I don't identify with it, just feel blessed by it, just let it flow through, for I know that "None but God is good."
♔
This is not a mental mind, an ego, coming in and saying, “Oh, I am great.  I have a message for you, and it is from God, so you’d better listen...yes, listen, if you know what’s good for you!”  Ha, what a hoot!  I am just another one who walks the path Homeward; nothing special.  Nothing any more special than you, than anyone.  (Paradoxically, each and all are uniquely special, of course :-)

This entry may well limit my audience to the mystics among us, and those of sufficient advancement on the spiritual path to have cut the tie, or dis-identified with what Eckhart calls the pain body, or the ego.  Ah well, such is life.  I love the truth; it's worth more than praise or blame.
✄
Nor do I claim to be the source or fount for truth, lol.  Just like everyone else, I simply do the best I can.  
 
I will mention projection here.  Please call to mind how, when we are angered, offended, or hurt, the offense lies in us, not in anything 'out there,' for there really is nothing out there, at all... Quantum physics rules, for it shows how we create what we see.  (I also recommend Ivan Stein's YouTubed workshops entitled Positive Manifestation.)
n=1,2,3
So, just consider the possibility, when some judgment arises, that the origin is within.  Could that be you, responding to yourself?  We all have to look within for it, for no one can do our inner work for us.  To project is to risk missing the message, of course.  What we are, inside, we project on the screen of the world outside.

Thus, we hear our thoughts spoken by those around us, we see our prejudices acted out, seemingly ‘out there,’ in the world, often responding emotionally to the external situations.  That is, until we realize that there really is no ‘out there’ at all; it is all an inside job.  The ‘out there’ only appears; it has no solid reality, in spite of what appears.
☯
I won’t do much explaining like this, for it engages the mental mind.  That is not my choice of abode, for I would far rather rest in spirit, in soul, than in mind, which cannot take us Home.  This is life from the mystic's perspective. 

So, what may have been missed is that generally, as I write I step aside, allowing the self to be danced by the great Dancer, whom many call God.  One forgets, sometimes, to listen from within, where these things are clear, where we are tutored, and where projection does not arise...
☠
Ah, this “God” word is problematic, for many respond to it.  It has so many thoughts/feelings/attitudes quite stuck to it, that it's best to stop using it, entirely.  One only uses words to communicate, after all—that is their purpose—and if a word does not communicate what one would share, one selects a better word.

How about 'Source'?  Let’s use that one.  It's certainly shorter than the one often used by the Sirian High Council:  'All That Is, That Ever Was and That Always Will Be.'  This, while completely accurate as both name and description of God, is a bit unwieldy.  The Pleiadians use 'Prime Creator.'
☮
They're all just words, of course.  I don't think Source is offended by our attempts to find the right word-symbol for Him/Her/It/Them.  Source, in my experience, has just as good and even better sense of humor than any of us, and can surely understand the awkward mire we often entangle ourselves in.

We forget that they're just words, and words are just complex symbols, made up of other little symbols, and have no inherent meaning of their own...well, excepting Hebrew, I guess.  Anyway, you get the point.  Let's not get so narrowly focused that we make fools of ourselves.  (Gee, with me being the only one talking, I guess I'm the only one at risk for that.  Hmmm. :-)

We all know about being danced, don’t we?  Perhaps my familiarity with it comes from my time spent with the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, and perhaps his source for this, Father Anthony de Mello (whose great work, 'Awareness' really tells it like it is.)  These wise ones both speak of the great Dancer and His dance.
✡
Some say life is a dance, and we are the dancer, but not these two.  They speak of Source, or God, as the ultimate Dancer, dancing life into manifestation.  We, then, rather than smaller dancers, are the dance, itself, are being danced.  We are actually the dance done by Source.  It is rather beautiful.

At first, the mental mind will simply bounce off such an idea, such a picture—for how can one imagine God dancing?  If one persists, though, it comes clearer.  This is one of those areas where the mental mind is not of much use, for it brings a higher understanding, a more heart-felt, even visceral one; one experiences it...especially as one develops the listening ear, within.  This is heart understanding.
❤
What gift can I leave with you, before I close, today?  I cannot know; only Source can know that.  All I can do is be danced, is surrender this self to the dance, and trust and know that all is well, all is truly well.  Love to you then, dear soul.  May you find your self in me, as we are danced, together...as One.  This is my hope.  ☼

*  Others' thoughts often come to us as hunches, impulses, ideas...  Also, since our world is based on our beliefs, if we don't know of the telepathy that comes with our oneness, then we don't allow it in—it does not exist for us.

** Here's a favorite saying of mine—don't know the source:  "It is just as harmful to take offense as it is to give offense."  Very powerful.

Ascending with Gaia & Why Words Won't Work


9:49 am, Sunday, 9/6/2009, 11 Edznab/Flint (Composition info, including Mayan calendar day)


Lovely, cloudy morning; thunder rumbles, now and then, in the background.  Cool enough that the windows are open, allowing in the bird and nature sounds.  Ah...beautiful.

In an interesting, rather pensive, meditative state.  Began this entry while in the midst of morning devotions (which include readings, then meditative questions and affirmations).  Was once again true, with the reading in No More Secrets No More Lies,* that only a small section of text could be taken in, before having to quit reading.

The text is thick with light, as the author offers so very much, toward the end of the book, especially, on the journey toward the full 12 stranding, the renewal and reactivation of our "junk" DNA.  Today's reading was about the final triangulation, the 10th, 11th, and 12th strands coming in, together (for the strands, after the third, come in by threes).
☼
The text takes us through the ‘birthing’ process with Gaia, too, the full ascension, oncoming, with our dear earth and solar system, into the higher dimension(s).  In the reading of such things, anymore, it is odd; I am in both places at once, both here and there, now and then.  It feels strange.  Will not try to explain the unexplainable, for the mind is simply not equipped.  It is experienceable, but not explainable.

And I came across the best and simplest ‘explanation' of this in the other morning reading, from I AM THAT.  Sri Nis(argadatta) explained that all words are of the mind, mental.  Yes, that simple, and so logical.  Words, then, being mental, cannot go beyond mind.  Works for me.
☺
But ah, they can, in a way, a transcendent way.  How is that?  By the radiation ☼ they carry.  All words contain and convey the energy of their writer/speaker.  In this way can words act as the carrier for a much higher -- or lower -- energy.  The Ascended Masters have long said this, through their various messengers, down through the centuries.  And now I find, experientially, that it is true.

Before, I knew it to be true only with the words of the Ascended Masters, for I felt their radiation, their energy, come through their dictations through the Messengers.  That was when, however, these chakras and sensitivities were pretty blocked off, due largely to fear, in its various aspects.**  Thus, it was only that powerful wallop of light, shining through the Masters’ words, that enabled me to perceive it.  In lesser intensities the energy remained largely invisible (to me).
∞
Oh, how times and things have changed, have accelerated!  Like practically everyone else, I have been accelerated...for one is largely danced, if one is on a spiritual path, the mystic's path, any more.  These days it is easy to perceive the energy coming through, riding in on almost anyone’s words, particularly those with more light.  It is just that clear and perceptible...and amazing.  (And I know this is nothing special with me, that so many of us are perceiving it.)

So, no, it is not the words that bring any kind of an enlightenment, for they cannot, being just mental.  But the light they carry, interacting with the light that is in us, that is us, triggers our understanding, our awakening to this or that...for we all know everything, deep within.  As we have long been told, look  within...
♥
Only this way does it make sense to use words to share a ‘message.’  One knows that the words do not, cannot contain or transmit it...but the light does.  This may also be why many Masters, down through the millennia, have gone into the silence.  They tell us that what they find there cannot be conveyed by any words.

In the silence one becomes what one then conveys by simply being, by one’s very being.  It can then be picked-up in direct transmission, vibrationally; and for this words are useless.
≈
So, since it is a given that words can neither contain nor convey truth, one can only tune-in to the heart; or, with Eckhart Tolle we can open to the ‘inner body.’  We can then rise into those higher vibratory aspects of being and take our seat and presence, there, where true communion begins.  (The mental mind has no part of this, but as a spectator.)
» ∞ «
From the outset, and throughout, I assert that I am no better, no wiser, no smarter, no holier than anyone, or even anything else.  In our ultimate oneness all are truly equal.  No thing, no person, no being is more important than another, for this is an impossibility.

How could this be, in true union, in our Oneness?  There simply is no other, no separation of any kind, here.  (Burt Harding’s ‘There Is Only YOU.pdf’ is a fantastic short presentation of this reality.) [ First article on this page:  http://members.shaw.ca/burtharding/]
≡
Here's a lovely thought:  this writing, these words, are to perform but a temporary task, since before too long, once all are awake and united and One (on the higher dimensions), no words will be either necessary or desired.  All, there, are awake and alive to all, and fully telepathic, at a minimum.

Meanwhile, while many of us yet linger here in 3D, giving attention to the seeming outer, to the non-existent ‘other,’ these words can be useful.  That is my hope.  This is my journey, of course.  This is not written here for another; I do but share.
αΩδφ
All words' usefulness still resides within the reader, though.  All actually resides in self, as so many are coming awake to realize.  One forgets, and habit lingers, as we sometimes point the finger, whether of blame or of praise, at another.

It does not suffice to be mentally awake to these things...though that helps.  No, one must truly awake, experientially, in the fuller, deeper sense.  So, my journey is to a fuller awakening into them.
∞
Heck, you may know far more, or far better than I do.  Again I will say, “I am no better than anyone.”  Besides, we cannot possibly recognize any light, wisdom, or knowledge in another that does not, first, exist within the self.  It is not possible.

That is why all any speaker can be is a re-minder; one who helps one re-cognize (re-know) that which is within the self, the Self.  And so we're all waking up to this, together.  Your awakening is mine, and mine is yours...
☻
Then too, by listening from within, taking up one’s seat and station there, and  listening with the inner ear, one might even hear the voice of one’s own Self speaking.  "I" may use these humble words, yet often your Self will speak to you in other words; quiet words that may even require you to pause for a bit, and listen to the Inner Knower. (They say that God/Source... is always speaking, but that we're usually too full of ourselves to listen.  Mea cupla :-)

What is offered here is frequency, is light.  The light comes in as vibration.  Higher frequencies are more light.  Lower frequencies are the limiting, the closing off of the spigot of light. (Darkness has no identity - it is, rather, the absence of light.)  If this blog succeeds, it will be based on the light it conveys.  (Interestingly enough, light, itself is also information, as science is discovering.)

So perhaps you'll join with me, as we listen from within, where (at least most of) these words originate.  To shift the awareness so as to hear one's own Self speaking is a fine exercise, helping one set the mental mind’s chatter aside; simply placing attention within.
♥
Always, too, the speaker of words of light is also the listener, is also learning; for with light comes both wisdom and humility.  The masters and sages down through the ages have told us that they, too, are listeners; it's one of the key ways we can recognize them, this absence of arrogance.  Gibran in The Prophet may capture it best.

One just knows that none but God is good, and that one is blessed to be a conduit, the pipeline through which such goodness can flow.  A worthy pipeline, hopefully, but just a pipeline, still...  And, if Source is the speaker, then should not all be listeners?
☺
We are all in process of remembering, whether consciously or not, that we are made to be happy; that our native state is pure bliss.  Come on - doesn't it creep up on you, now and then? ☺This has been forgotten, in the hurly-burly of living here in 3D.

We are aided in the recall by our movement into 4D, into 5D, as we transition with Gaia, and Ra, the radiant one, as general frequencies rise.  Our whole solar system is in process of ascension, not just the (ready and willing) people.  (Patricia Cori presents this information beautifully in her trilogy of books, The Cosmos of Soul.)
☼
But, accept that or not; it doesn’t matter.  It is certainly one way of looking at things, at the current changes, everywhere visible.  Old beliefs get in the way, for all of us, and we are in the process of removing them, of slipping the surly bonds of earth and taking flight, in vibration, into the beyond.  Ha, of slipping the surly bonds of earth with earth, for she rises, too.
▲
She is a being, you know.  We have named her, often calling her Gaia, but how many have realized that she is a real, individual being, with a real conscious awareness?  Yes, and she communicates, when she will.

What does one find when one communicates with Gaia?  I don’t know what you will find, but what I have found is oneness.  It is quite surprising to discover this union; oneself (the body) as a cell in the body of the planet.  Amazing, actually, and very different.  Oh, and she is very loving.  Many know this, already, of course, and respond, and thus we have today's ecology movement.
Ö
A rock is conscious too.  So is a bug.  So is an electron, a photon, as quantum physics, gift of the gods (or gift of God/Source... as you will), has shown.  So are each and every one of our ≥ 50 trillion cells.  Everything, the whole shootin’ match, is conscious and aware, in its own way.

All participate in divinity, as well.  All rise with us, in conscious awareness.  Understanding this makes life a rather different proposition, doesn’t it?  One steps more carefully...mindfully.

One walks with more Presence, more awareness.  We can see it, everywhere around us...and within us.

Ain't life grand?!  Good day.
