Change

Whether you believe in angels or not, they are definitely among us. The energy has shifted and everyone of us will be affected according to our consciousness and determination. Today, many of us are occupied with viewing an amazing event take place in Washington.D.C. Humanity is watching and so are those from the subtle planes and other worlds of Light who care. This afternoon, I am going to do something different. There is a Dr. Kilstein who offers a Finger Healing technique for every type of situation. The following quote is his finger healing technique suggestion that will help you comfortably handle change.

"Like his slogan, President Obama is promising to bring "Change." Change can be scary. We fear the unknown when we can't predict what's coming next. But all changes, whether personal, national, or otherwise, have the potential to bring good things. So when a big change happens in your life, it always helps to think about all the good things this change will bring. Here's a great finger healing for Change, to help you look forward to and welcome change:

Sit comfortably with your back straight but not stiff. Fold your fingers into fists, with your fingertips pressing on the upper pads of the hands. Press the backs of your hands together at the knuckles. Extend your thumbs and touch them at the tips. Hold your hands in front of your navel, with your thumbs pointing slightly upward toward your heart. Breathe long, deep, and slow. Hold this position for three minutes, while concentrating on the energy in your hands. And remember, when change comes (and it will), be prepared for it by using your finger healing technique. As a matter of fact, if you are looking for things to change...If you want to be happier, wealthier, or find love...Or you're stuck in a rough patch and want to pick yourself up, why not test drive this suggestion today?

Fear of the Unknown

The other day I was watching a neighbor walking in extreme pain. Her husband was doing his best to help her climb the stairs to their third floor condo. It turns out that somehow she had injured her one kneecap three weeks previously. Tests showed nothing. I decided to call her and offer my services. In this case, it meant a free healing touch session to relieve the pain and remove the source of the pain. The woman actually became alarmed and never had heard of what I referred to as energy work. I told her that in religious terms the offer could be called laying on of hands. She had never heard of energy work and the idea of laying on of my hands to the affected area really shook her composure. She had been in excruciating pain for three weeks and still turned me down. To her credit, the woman said to let her think about it. Well, the neighbor never called me back. It makes you wonder about fear and its origin.

Offering to help someone whether you know them or not is offering unconditional love without any strings attached. It is as if a good part of the world's population is ruled by a universal hypnotism of what they should and should not do. In my understanding, universal mesmerism or hypnotism is a belief that one is separated from God. Too many people continue to believe that suffering must continue and refuse to be open to alternative methods that will shift them towards wholeness. If so, I could say this woman and others like her are victims to a false universal belief. We cannot force understanding or acceptance on another.

Something new, different thoughts, need to be introduced into her mind that will stop world beliefs from clinging to her consciousness. She and others need to hear and accept that the nature of their being is God. Every part of us is the nature of God. What do we do when we try to bring out the good in a plant, animal or child for instance? We love and bless it. When I help people with healing, I know with certainty that I am dealing with the individuals misapprehension of reality. The human mind and its belief in two powers is the culprit. The secret of healing is recognizing a higher Energy, which is the Divine, God, Holy Spirit or whatever name you call the One Creator. God is an experience and not a word. This woman really could use an experience of grace. Grace would change her life. Hypnotism ceases when we enter the stillness and finally understand what is real.

Super Beings

The doctrine that God can be incarnated in human form is found in most of the principal historic expositions--in Hinduism, in Mahayana Buddhism, in Christianity and in the Mohammedanism of the Sufis. I will share a quote from the Bhagavad Gita.
"When goodness grows weak, when evil increases, I make myself a body. In every Age I come back to deliver the holy, to destroy the sin of the sinner, to establish righteousness. He who knows the nature of My task and My holy birth is not reborn. When He leaves this body: He comes to Me. Flying from fear, from lust and anger, He hides in Me, His refuge and safety. Burnt clean in the blaze of My being. In Me, many find home". Yes, we can! Every human being can become an Avatar. He or she needs to be shown the way and helped by divine grace. The Godhead assumes the form of an ordinary human being, who has through effort and instruction, love, willingness and patience earned a one-pointed awareness...enlightenment.

I interpret this quote to mean that one Avatar, super being, will make an appearance upon the stage of history when enough of the collective consciousness is ready for another boost. Usually, these beings are channels of grace and divine power who through example encourage us to adopt the process where we allow our hearts to unfold and our minds expand. In other words, to learn to love one another, which is a spiritual love and to love ourselves. Before a human can be Christlike and identify with the Father-Mother God Ideal, we must begin to imitate what we believe in. Enlightenment and understanding and living our spiritual identity is a requirement in our eventual state of mind called super beings. When not enlightened, Buddhas, Christs and other names that refer to Masters of matter and the little self are no other than ordinary beings. When there is enlightenment, ordinary beings transform into Buddhas. This is our earth assignment.

Most of us have admired super men and women since we were children. As adults this could be why so many of the hero and heroine television shows, movies and books are so popular. It would be fantastic to be able to help and save people. As a child, I loved Wonder Woman. Last year, I went on the Internet found and purchased my own red long sleeved Wonder Woman tee shirt. A blazing picture of the heroine sits smack on my chest. I have never worn the shirt out in public but I smilingly know that the special shirt is sitting on the shelf in my closet. Why not be a hero or heroine? We are all made of light, beauty and inner power. Scripture repeatedly reminds us that the supra normal is our real identity.

The New Man

The scriptures say of human beings that there is an outward man and along with him an inner man. Within us all is the other person, the inner man, whom the Scripture calls the new man, the heavenly man, the young person, the friend, the aristocrat. The seed of God is in us. To quote from Eckhart you will read that the seed of God is in us. "Given an intelligent and hardworking farmer, it will thrive and grow up to God, whose seed it is; and accordingly its fruits will be God-nature. Pear seeds grow into pear trees, nut seeds into nut trees, and God seed into God."

Human beings have free will and we are at liberty to identify with whatever pleases us. This amazing ability to choose our interests creates who we believe we are. The average person may act one way all their life but when a serious illness personally happens to him, he behaves very different. He could have lived a life of fear and then when he realizes he is dying become serene and God centered. For some people, it is easier to behave selflessly in a time of crisis that when life appears normal. The difference between a saint for instance and a typical human is that the saint is one who knows that very moment of our human life is a moment of crisis.

Now, why would that be? It has to do with personal choice. Every day challenges or opportunities present themselves to us. How we respond determines whether we are moving closer to darkness, which is ignorance or opening to radiant light and life. The goal of human life is to finally arrive at a state of consciousness where there are no longer any God-eclipsing obstacles between what we think and believe we are and the Divine Reality. The aim is to be constantly and consciously aware of our spiritual identity and purpose as a lover of God regardless of what is going on around us or directed at us. To understand the words I write and live them is a form of spiritual training that eventually leads us to transcend the human personality and state of ourselves that we are not a man or woman and answer instead, we are a Buddha, Christ or whatever exalted title you prefer to use to describe your state of being as an awakened and new man. This may sound preposterous to some who read this. Get used to it. It is truth.

Another View

It has been said by many mystics that God is free of all names and void of all forms but...I disagree regarding the form. Meaning, if God is in All, that Power and Presence is in form whether than form be visible or invisible. A recent survey showed that 84 percent of people asked about heavenly intervention say they believe in miracles. Some attribute miracles to Jesus and the Holy Spirit or angels and saints, deceased relatives and invisible beings. We do live in a universe of infinite possibilities and high probabilities. Weird things do happen every day. When something miraculous occurs most people hopefully claim the special happening as God caring and stepping in to help although the event broke the laws of nature.

What I am referring to has nothing to do with psychic preoccupations which deals with the sixth sense, a developed and focused mind but with a genuine spirituality. Man has always had the power within to realize a mystic union, a direct awareness of something extraordinary going on that involves the Unseen. Every so often, that Unseen becomes seen. The invisible helpers become obvious to our senses. In my latest book, Be-Embracing the Mystery, you can read for yourself many of the strange and yet wonderful Godlike experiences that have been an integral part of my life. There is one proof after another that another Source, power, presence or energy is taking care of me in a rather amazing way. What is this energy?

The incomprehensible energy could be invisible guides, former relatives or strangers who enjoy serving in this capacity, masters or angels cooperating with the higher part of who I am to literally save me from extinction and remove inconveniences along the path. It is the energy of what we call God or Spirit in these invisible friends helping us not some Absolute, Impersonal and Nameless Creator Power. It is God being personal. We also can call on the Impersonal Holy Creative Spirit to heal and help. I have always thought of this Sublime Energy as my best friend although it is definitely more impersonal than an intelligent entity helping out. The multiplicity came out of the One. We have proof that God, the One, exists through our intimate relationship with the many. The outcomes of our relationship with the multiplicity representing God in matter is our evidence.

Can God be Proven?

Proof of a divine Reality or God happens when there is a change in us. There is a corresponding change in our nature in direct relationship to our sense of knowing. What is the sense of knowing? It is not a sense of the physical or intellectual but the subtle spiritual or intuitive senses that depend upon direct perception. Authority to speak comes from the authority of knowing firsthand that there is a totally different energy behind the appearance of matter. An individual who is loving and pure in heart is more likely to witness and feel the ultimate Reality. Until that moment arrives for the seeker, he or she can study the works of those who were and are filled with a self-validating certainty of direct awareness.

The facts, so to speak, our realized and experienced in the deepest and most central part of the soul. We can be filled with man's learning and not yet hear the unhearable. We can ask for that knowledge. The knowledge I am speaking of is intuitively known deep within all of us. Some students may begin by looking inwards into their own particular divinity through contemplation, meditation and more. Others, may search for unity in nature and outside of self. Finally, the seeker realizes that something is present in the deepest and most central part of his own soul as well as in the life of everyone and everything else.

Souls like my own have an easier time in experiencing the proof of God, because we see the radiant Light which can only be witnessed through spiritual sight. The Unknowable and Impersonal created Limitless Light. The Limitless Light, which binds all creation seen and unseen together, projects through the One whose primal Will, is our Source. The One created the Two, our Divine Parents, the Father-Mother Principles, which humans refer to as God. The Son, perfect individual spirits (intelligent lights), came forth from the Two. We originally were perfect individual spirit lights. We had a will that could be used to create and enjoy the creative process within the cosmos. Density-matter as we now know it is the result of the individual subtle spirit light forms desiring to create and expand and explore limitlessness. Once an individual wearing a skin begins to see with his inside eyes the light he and others are and the light behind each creative form, an understanding dawns that 'God', an indescribable Divine Power and Presence, lives in our midst. It not only lives everywhere as boundless creative energy, the Light is the glue, the link that holds all creation together. Witnessing radiant Light with our spiritual senses is one of the ways we personally know that there is a mysterious, pure and unpolarized energy behind our flimsy descriptions of what Is.

Who or What is Hindering You?

Are you the type who agrees with mass consciousness regarding time, diagnoses, symptoms or aging? Frequently, we hear from self-help practitioners that we must get out of the box. This means we have crippled ourselves with chalk-marks that make a claim that we must accept conditions and allow a state of paralysis to keep us in bondage. What is interesting is the fact that the conditions can actually disappear if we finally grasp the truth that we had fallen prey to the rules of the game of human life.

If a person is told he has an incurable disease, the amount of chalk marks hindering his mind jumps much higher. At the same time, if told there is nothing that can be done, the prisoner may decide to cross the line and try a totally different approach rather than allow his life to end. Regardless of what type of ugliness, lack or nonsenses appears in your life, why not dismiss it? I am not implying you should stop your treatment if that is the case. What I am suggesting is taking a second look at anything that is hindering you from living from the highest perspective of you soul. Hindrances, chalk marks, limitations ar the enemy. This sounds bold but it is an ancient truth. To be released from any human condition and struggle, we are required to awaken to our true spiritual identity. I keep going back to identity because it is the tool that opens the box.

When you awaken to your spiritual identity something rather remarkable occurs. Divine harmony, a security and balance, a secret love and assurance is yours. You see, nasty conditions or situations will not change and you will not be able to cross over your chalk marks as long as you accept as your truth that sin, a disease, aging or any lack and limitation is an actual truth. Oh, yes, it appears as if they are happening to you and the majority of people. A very unusual thing happens when your consciousness shifts to a higher perspective. The unreal is exposed. What I am saying is worth thinking about. What troubles you is actually an illusion that you accept as true. Change your mind. In changing your mind, hold your understanding as a real conviction. I would suggest you keep silent about your new discovery particularly if you are under stress and strain. We fall into traps of lack, limitation and disease because we have allowed ourselves to become mesmerized. As you are healing or changing the conditions in your life, look deeply into your thinking and whether you harbor any undesirable character traits. Because we live in matter and are strongly influenced by world consciousness, it could be that you are unknowingly picking up on energy that is weakening your own life force. This does not to continue.
