Peace


Peace

While life might be perceived by some as being chaotic, we might offer that in reality everything is going exactly according to plan. It requires the breaking of the external shell to allow the emerging magnificence to be born. It is all good. Soon the remnants of a life lived in pain, fear and suffering will be distant memories that were discarded in order to embrace the new reality. You are serving, in fact, as midwives to this emerging new world.

That said, we have a few suggestions that might ease the labor pains. First, do not attach yourself to anyone or anything. It is important to be as free as possible to move in your space in order to come into alignment with the new frequencies. Unless those to which you are tethered are of the same frequency, you will not be able to remain in equilibrium when moving through the dimensional portal.

Liquidize - the more “stuff” you try to bring along, the more difficult this passage will become. Allow the dramas in your life to take a backseat for now and concentrate on just being in your higher space while the background rearranges itself. It is almost like being in a state of suspended animation if you are whole, complete and operating in a state of peace.

Peace is the operative word right now. All is peaceful if you choose it to be so.  Many around the world are tuning into this frequency of Love made manifest. The more the global community is able to tune into this frequency of peace, the more this will become the reality. The efforts to make this so have not gone unnoticed on the higher realms.  There are  sparks of peace around the earth that are igniting fires of recognition everywhere.  While many have not entirely grasped the magnitude of what this really means once it is realized, it is a beginning and one that must be nurtured if it is to become a reality.

As it has been said, peace is really an inside job for this is where it must begin. That is the real “grass roots” level of experience. Until one has mastered some level of inner peace and be willing to embrace the concept of brotherhood of all – not just with those that come easy - there will be little chance of uniting a diverse world in this experience. You might begin by thinking of those with whom you have the greatest difficulty connecting. Of these, what areas of common agreement do you share? This must be where peace starts.

Begin to build a common foundation on which to build a sanctuary of peace. The more commonalities you can share with each other, the greater will be the opportunity to find new ones to replace the broken ones of suspicion, distrust and disagreement. Keep searching for there is a common bond that connects all pieces of humanity if only we are willing to dig deeper amongst the rubble of explosive interaction and resurrect the peaceful Home we all long for.

Peace in your world will only be achieved when brothers and sisters put aside the things that make us unique for now and start to bring together the things that unite us in the body of God. This is the core of our creation that is beckoning us all Home. Our differences are the accessories that decorate our lives with joy and wonder. These gifts will go unsung without the body of God that is forged from the Oneness. Be willing to become part of the essential body of creation and you will find ample opportunity to decorate the All with your unique gifts. Come Home in Peace…

Common Ground


If you believe that you are serving a higher purpose in all that you do, you will ultimately achieve that goal.  If you believe that all is in chaos and that you are at the mercy of the forces beyond your control, then this is what you will create. When all is transpiring in your world within the parameters of your belief system, doesn’t it make sense to create a world of greater potential and awareness?

As for how we might recommend that you go about this, we might suggest that you take some time to sit in your higher self and ruminate upon the things that are going well in your life and those that you would like to change. What might you do to perpetuate the positive energy that you feel from the things that you are creating that serve a higher purpose? What can you learn from these that will assist you in altering the outcome of those that do not seem to be going as well? If these are patterns of experience, what are the common patterns that help create the positive experiences? Is there a common theme such as compassion, connectedness, kindness or love that exemplifies the positive experiences? What about those that are not going so well? What can you borrow from the playbook of uplifting experiences that can help you redirect the events in your life in a more positive way?

Now undoubtedly the things that create conflict in your life are experienced in concert with others.  What lesson is calling to be mastered in this conflict? How is your attachment to a point of view or idea causing an impasse because neither is willing to see through the other’s eyes? If you pause a moment and suspend all judgment and try to see the situation as the other does, isn’t there a third path that honors the truth of each in more respectful ways? Just a suggestion…

Conflicts in the world frequently are the result of envisioning a situation through the blinders of limited vision. You only have to step into another’s shoes to see and feel the scope of the impasse due to differing perspectives.  If all are to come together as One, it will require us to dissolve the barriers to understanding. The more you are willing to find out about your partners in experience and find the common threads that bind you together, the more you will be able to find the common ground on which to walk together.

This all begins with suspending judgment long enough to see the face of God in your counterpart. If he/she also is God expressing in form, what is this mirroring to you to be revealed? If we are to move beyond the confines of our egoic perceptions, we will be able to see the light of common experience peeking out from under the obstacles/excuses we have placed in the way. There is a common thread that binds us all together. It is to be discovered when we accept our own divine abilities that allow us to see others as God does and to nurture those divine traits in ourselves and those we have chosen to share this journey with.  Be willing to move past these impasses in your life and find the higher path that you can walk together on the journey Home.  Come Home…

Starry Starry Night


Starry Starry Night

 

In the course of human events there are many shining examples that stand out as lights that are as stars in the background of a sky of mediocrity. Those that seem to shine brightest are when we interact with another on a deep soul level and there is a deep inner Knowing that we are indeed One. What if your whole life were sprinkled with such moments to the extent that this was all you could see? To create this reality, you must be able to give up that which calls you to the desires of the ego and be willing to risk all in search of this higher form of Love.

 

What would you be willing to risk to live a life filled with ecstatic pleasure, not just in the physical sense, but things that turn on and enliven all of the moments of your life in Joy and wonder? Since this requires an attitude of creativity as well as receptivity, what is preventing you from doing this?

 

Perhaps you do not feel that you deserve to be happy beyond measure –you get your wish! Perhaps you feel that joy is frivolous - guess what, no Joy. Perhaps you cannot see beyond the illusions of the present to even imagine a world without strife and pain. Guess what you will create. To be able to create a different future, you must be able to discard these images of past “failures” and envision a different play unfolding in your life.

 

Given a blank slate, what would you put on it that would give you true joy? Would it be more “things”? Would it be wealth? How about romance? Travel? Physical beauty? Given your experiences, what of these made you truly happy and has planted seeds for even greater experiences in the future?

 

What about power? What has made you feel truly powerful? Was this at the expense of others? How did that make you feel in the long run? Was it joyful? Is power over yourself or others a good thing or does it leave you feeling empty and betrayed? How might this cachet called power be redirected to serve yourself and others in a more meaningful way.” What do you do that makes you feel powerful in a positive way and how can you use this dynamic energy to elevate yourself and others in positive ways?

 

What about nurturance? On a feeling scale, is it more Joyful to nurture or be nurtured?  What can you do to bring more of this nurturing, caring energy into your life? Is caring and compassion a big part of your life and your daily practice or are you bound by perceived constraints that make this seem difficult? Perhaps it is time to sever these ties that bind you and prevent your giving and receiving the fullest expression of God’s Love in and through others.

 

The illusions of life are a cloud that prevents our seeing things around us in their natural state as God does. Suspend your judgment and expectations and you will enter a world where beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if you assume your God-vision-goggles, all will be revealed in the perfection of this divine vision.  Allow yourself to live amongst this image more and more each day until this becomes your reality.  The only things preventing us from ascending into our godhood are our limiting thoughts and beliefs. You are more than you can ever imagine and this divine image is being withheld because you are reluctant to open your inner awareness in order to embody the magnificence you are. What will it take to inspire you to get up and accept this mantle of divinity? God only knows…
