Snatches of Wisdom from the Kabbalah

Since so much that is said in the teachings of the Kabbalah are in harmony in a very practical way with the hundreds of articles, couple books, workshops and lectures that I have shared over the years, I feel it is appropriate to mention some excellent points that will likely support your present understanding of purpose and plan. Kabbalah wasn't always popular and strict rules decided who could study it. During the last decade of the twentieth century it became center stage in the area of public awareness. More people are asking the old question, "What is the meaning of life?" The fact that Kabbalah is a practical discipline will help any one willing to use the suggestions.

The well-being of each part depends on the well-being of all other parts of creation. More of us have come to this conclusion naturally and the desire to stop destroying ourselves, the planet and Her life has become an important issue with us.
Kabbalah has always had a reputation of possessing insight into the highest forces of nature, of the spiritual worlds and of the nature of God. Actually, Kabbalah is not a religion, magic, mysticism, divination, cult, holistic medicine, meditation, philosophy, theosophy, psychology or parapsychology, ESP, telepathy, dream interpretation, tarot cards, yoga, red strings, holy water, blessings, past-life regressions, numerology, reiki, channeling, astrology, astral travels or projection
or communicating with the dead, out of body experiences, voodoo,freemasonary, reflexology, UFO's, creationism, Sufism or any ism. Now that I have mentioned all the areas many of us are already interested in and Kabbalah is not, why bother writing about the subject?

Kabbalah is not a passing fad; it is time-tested. It is a practical method to understanding human nature and the nature of the Creator. The word Kabbalah means reception. It is also a discipline of study, a method that teaches us how to receive. The wisdom teaching helps you to know where you truly are in relation to where you think you are. It has its own methods to help you rise above the five senses and develop the sixth sense. Kabbalah doesn't take you away from anything you presently believe in or enjoy doing. It simply offers a whole new meaning and strength to everything that happens to you so life can be lived to its fullest. It is simple to understand and practical. If you are interested, stay with me this week as we look at reality as an embroidery that you are creating~

The Initiation of Service

I did mention the other day that if we experience an overload in the area of giving we may miss out in receiving. The message of course is to try and achieve a happy balance. Real service is freedom from selfishness. This is a learned attribute. In the past, serious students seeking enlightenment would go off to an isolated place and spend hours in solitude and meditation. I followed that practice when I was thirty-nine years old for several years. It is true that deeper meditative states are gained through this process but times have changed. It is far greater to attain such a deep meditative state and surrender it in order to serve in a practical manner among mankind. Recently, experiencing a rather extreme fast, I meditatively traveled all over the world below and cruised the cosmos above. This is all well and good and a greater understanding of the science of Light and the ladder of Evolution is achieved. The complete experience is to share the Immensity and live as a full consciousness in the gross physical body. This is the way I have tried to live for thirty-nine years...experiencing a full memory of an upper world, so to speak, and trying in my own way to share the lessons, truths, opportunities and probabilities with those who are receptive here on earth.

When our oneness with all life is thoroughly understood, we free ourselves from any future gross limitations. We choose where and how we return to earth if that is our desire. This is one way to remove future suffering. Being conscious that we are one cell in an enormous unlimited and intelligent Body that is one indescribable and great limitless whole. We serve by honoring our individual body temple, by choosing to remove lower aspects of ourselves that work against the divine plan. We serve by not being attached to things, places, people and animals. If we detached ourselves from our own worries and pain, we serve our best interests and the imbalance will heal. The more we dwell on personal problems, the worse they become. There are countless ways to serve.

There is a complete soul history on every one of us. The history of our choices, thoughts and actions are impressed upon the etheric waves, our own auric bodies. Many people are concerned regarding judgment and the law of Karma. Actually, judgement is self judgement. We review what we have written upon the pages of life. The greatest Yoga is service. We could include religion and acts done as part of the greatest Yoga. No one can attain Enlightenment unless he or she serves. When we unselfishly serve, our chakras are activated. Inspiration is offered to us. We need to understand that service is the result of applied spiritual logic. Serve the highest part of who you are and your service towards others will flow magically because you are remembering spirit identity and the purpose of life. It is our responsibility to serve ourselves by deliberately making corrections of our mistakes physically, emotionally and mentally. We don't retreat from suffering, we address it by sustaining a state of joy and peace within ourselves. True giving is to give healing or assistance to those we dislike. Visit your inner wilderness that holds no restrictions. Visit the point of the heart every day and bring forth nourishment for your own stability and the stability of others.

Have a great weekend~
Much love,

Days and Nights of Fear

A special friend and I shared our feelings about the subject of fear over lunch. Strange place to discuss negativity but our feelings needed to be expressed. There is such a strong accumulation of fear in today's world that the majority of people our blind to what the real battle is and why it is occurring. This is a long period where we who understand must put our bravery to the supreme test. I have traveled consciously out of my physical body above the Earth and found myself many times exploring completely alone in the Cosmos. There is nothing to fear. What we need to armour ourselves against through a direct connection with the Divine Forces is with the right kind of knowledge. The right type of knowledge dispels fear and overcomes all the lies and nonsense that is being hurled at souls who are not alert to the danger of succumbing to the negative influence of the dark forces.

If any of the religions were truly followed, there would be no weapons of mass destruction and hateful desires to harm others. The Master Teachers through the cycle of ages have given us Great Laws in which true protection...enlightenment, is discovered. If we allow ourselves to be fearful, we are falling prey to the most powerful weapon of the darkest forces. These forces are not solely in the lower astral realms; they exist in human form here on earth. You can break away from their insidious influence by delving deep within yourself and discovering your true identity as a spiritual light, a being of power and creative intelligence. Stop and analyze accusations heard on the news and everywhere else and do some deep thinking. Fear is a state of mind. You have a choice to fall prey or change the warped mental condition and get your act together. Fear can be transmuted through understanding of universal laws, compassion, love and enlightenment. To discover a higher reality and transmute the dark ignorance, we must make every effort to draw out the latent powers within and bring them actively into manifestation on earth.

A state of mind can be changed at once for good or evil. Certainly you have had moments of clarification when a shift occurs that immediately changes your perspective. Acquire the right kind of knowledge and a good and permanent shift will be your experience. When we rise above the fears and uncertainty, falsehoods and manipulations, we also rise above our environment and our outlook is transformed. A healing begins that moves us decisively forward in our climb up the ladder of soul evolution. We are counting on you to do your part in this life altering drama. This is why we are on planet earth at this auspicious time~

Two Reminders: Physical & Spiritual

I don't think I'm going out on a limb or that I would surprise anyone when I say we may be going through some very difficult times in the next few years. We can weather the storm as a nation and as an individual if we remember to be responsible. It is during times like these when many of us are adjusting to changes in finances or social and working environments that it may not always be easy. But trying to deal with any of this additional stress or uncertainty can become overwhelming when the body is failing us as well. Never before has it been more important for us to remember to focus on how to maintain and preserve our health. Various attacks and propaganda aimed at vitamins, herbs, supplements, and other natural therapies just don't go away. Hopefully, alternative therapies will not be restricted or curtailed similar to what is happening in other countries around the world. My first reminder is the importance in being responsible for our own health particularly now during these uncertain times.

The second reminder is to remember you are loved, deeply loved by forces that you may not see. Many people have difficulty understanding and accepting the truth that they are loved by the guides, angels, luminous beings and yes, departed loved ones and friends. We are never alone although our five senses tell us we are. I know it may feel safer for some of you not to allow this love to manifest in a personal way because there may be a lingering fear that it will leave you or you are not worthy or you do not wish to be disappointed. Spirit does not desert us. We desert It. We all to frequently shun the very Light and beauty of our celestial friends because they are not seen and in some cases not felt. At least one angelic presence is with you at all times. Learn to rely on a higher love that is available for you and allow a bond to work for inner peace, comfort, confidence and genuine happiness. I know our spirit friends love us more than any words can express. The greater our understanding and closeness with this truth, the more openly they are in taking action when we ask for help. Trust and you will discover that you have a beautiful, intelligent and loving team behind you. Be at peace with this for it is from the Light~

Do You Know How to Receive?

I've been thinking a great deal about the seriousness of the financial situation for many very good and beautiful souls. They are either out of work, have gone through their savings for one important reason or another, filed bankruptcy or simply cannot buy gas for the car or easily put food on the table. What is wrong? Why does this frequently happen to people who are caring, love the Creator and do their best to live as radiant light in form? First, I reviewed all the wealthy people that I know and they typically are into their own comfort and efforts increasing materiality. Their focus is material wealth and respecting money for what it can do for them. It is a rare materially wealthy person who will give someone in dire need a loan. That is one of the reasons they remain wealthy and those who are always giving to others frequently experience financial shortages. I am speaking from not only observation but personal experience. I've only known one wealthy individual who would freely give cash to someone in need without any strings attached and that was my late uncle. He gave to firemen, policemen, anyone and everyone who had a need.

Our reality becomes what we focus on. When a human begins as an infant, it is totally dependent and for survival it receives. Once a soul is entrenched in the energy of receiving and not yet giving, it remains as a beginner in soul consciousness. Our five senses are "programmed" to serve personal interests. It is only after a soul has been on a journey for a period of time that it begins to expand consciousness and sincerely desires to give and share with others. We were created with an endless, infinite desire to receive but something wonderful happens along the path. The soul decides it would like to be a Creator and give. We desire to be like the Creator. Lovers of a higher consciousness desire spirituality and usually do not strive for wealth.

Now, what is strange about this process is the fact that so many good souls become caretakers, givers exclusively and forget about receiving. They have to learn all over again how to receive. Altruism is about being one with others, united with them. For many loving souls, they go to an extreme and neglect their own future welfare in their desire to serve. This is not balance. Think about it. For a complete perception of anything, we need to first be complete within and in our environment. Many good people ignore and do not honor their own energy, time and space. If you are a caretaker in the true sense of the word, think about this. Don't neglect your comfort in your desire to serve. How can we be filled with joy if we do not honor our own energy? Yes, we want to be like the Creator and continue to give to others as one way to give to the Source of our creation. We must also take control over our own environment and respect our life force.
