The Illusion of Separation

You have believed for far too long (according to your measure of time) that you are separate from everything on your beautiful blue planet and indeed everything in the Universe, that you are separate from everyone else. This is an illusion of the plane in which you reside. In the depths of your soul you know this. I will say it again, separation is an illusion. The Universe, even in the apparently material reality in which you reside is much more "fluid' than you realise. Actually, your scientists already know this. And your great mystics and sages have been teaching this wisdom for thousands of years. Separation is an illusion. Fundamentally, the universe at all levels or planes of reality is comprised of energy, nothing more nothing less. Your Einstein demonstrated that matter is simply identical to energy. Furthermore, this energy is infinitely intelligent. It is unlimited and unlimiting. It is pure consciousness. It is the mind of God. For, as you know from your Bible:

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." John Chapter 1, 1-3.

"The Word" was the first thought, the first manifestation of consciousness there had ever been. For consciousness is at the root of the tree that is the Universe in all dimensions/planes/levels of reality. Everything in existence extends from consciousness. Consciousness is everywhere. The entire Universe is a conscious being unto itself. The Universe became manifest within the mind of God through the energy associated with thought. This energy was/is pure and infinite light, which could then be condensed ultimately into matter at your level of reality. God could become manifest in form and function. That is the reason that there can be no separation. That is why everything is connected. Everything that exists in the Universe came about first and foremost as a thought, an idea. Form/matter is energy made manifest and energy is thought in action. So the entire Universe is the expression of a single Being - God, with infinite consciousness and intelligence. The Universe creates, it reproduces, it evolves, it is alive! Therefore, everything in the Universe, including you, is manifested from a single source, God. Everything is connected. Everything exists within the mind of God. Separation is an illusion.

Seeing with the Heart

There is a way of "seeing" - from the heart, 
Through feeling. 

When the heart opens, it is easier to understand this. 

It is something that can't be understood from the mind - only from the heart...

But of course, 

It is all about balance - allowing the energy to flow freely Through all of the chakras...

The higher ones and the lower ones,

The heart is the centre, 

The balance point, 

The fulcrum, 

So we can find that balance. 

It's great to go into the silence, 
To recognise the feelings in the heart. 

Those feeling are full of bliss and joy,
The closest to experiencing Heaven on Earth.

I loved what she said:

"So I am now trying to embrace my feelings and sense where in the body I sense them, 

And be thankful for the calm, loving, fearless feelings I have (almost in an affirmation-kind of way)"

I know what she meant - "fearless" - love that!
By trying to identify the feelings,

In analyzing them, 

They can be chased away...they dissipate, 

Those feelings cannot be grasped....

It seems that it is only necessary to recognise the feelings, 

Embrace them, 

Accept them,

And bless them...

That is all...

That's what to aim for...
By embracing the feelings in Your consciousness, 

You honour their presence and the  energy keeps flowing.

 

Consciousness and The New Earth

The New Earth will become a reality and its manifestation is dependent upon the state of our collective consciousness. 

So, as our consciousness evolves, a new field of energy is forming that will enable us to find the solutions to our present problems...there is a lot of hope now I believe. 

The fact is, the effect of consciousness on reality is the one major thing that mostly science isn't currently taking into account when it runs its models...there can be no such thing as objective reality because the presence of consciousness influences reality, so changes will occur exponentially as more and more people wake up as they join the collective energy field. 

And it is the new young people of this era, who are actually "old souls" who will lead this revolution from the heart as we move fully into the new energy of the coming era. 

Walking Through Illusion: A Review

I have just finished reading Walking Through Illusion by Betsy Otter Thompson.

This book consists of inspired information in which Jesus speaks about the people who shared his journey during his time here on Earth, such as Mary Magdalene, Judas and Pilate for example.

Each chapter deals with particular individuals to whom Jesus gave advice and with whom he discussed the particular issues they faced, how they were influenced by his teachings, his approach to life and his state of Being.

It is a joy to read about Jesus' own thought processes here - truly inspired and presented with great beauty. 

Always, the advice of Jesus is to approach the issues of every day life from a heart-based state of Being. Betsy states that in order to begin to write this book she had to open her heart to different emotional issues. In the process of praying and asking for a way forward this approach was revealed to her.


Each chapter deals with issues/topics that we all face in our everyday lives in this reality such as Reform, Gifts, Obstacles, Morality, Nourishment, Beliefs, Opinions, Approval, Fairness, Curiosity, Truth, Advice, Complaints, Acceptance, Hearts, Handicaps, Betrayal, Identities, Hatred, Memories, Confusion, Death and Time. 

For example, Bartholomew was give the following advice by Jesus: 

"See success differently, I told Bartholomew, and instead of insisting it’s something you see with your eyes, see it as something you feel in your heart. I called this process walking through illusion". 

The book is full of beautiful statements like this. I particularly enjoyed the quotes at the beginning and end of each chapter. These words are truly inspired and inspiring.

At the end of each chapter there is a worksheet section in which the reader can work through their own thoughts/feelings on the issues highlighted in each chapter. These sections are particularly useful I feel. Finally, Betsy shares her own reflections on the issues raised in each chapter, which provides a nice personal touch.

This is a book about the words and approaches of Jesus specifically and not surprisingly, in this context, there is universal wisdom here, which all true seekers will enjoy and benefit from. The concepts are presented and discussed with clarity and ease.

The words of Jesus still resonate and remain alive through this work. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and highly recommend it as a book to keep by the bedside and to return to again and again for deep insights and wisdom on the joy and travails of every day living.

Entering the Space

It is very hard to talk about those things that you enjoy so much and that are so close to your heart, that are a part of you. You have a drive to understand the truth. You read and read and read and then you meditate on what you have learned. You think and you go inside yourself and you feel your presence. You feel the presence of the divine. You gain inklings of the truth and you begin to understand a little. 

But most people aren't ready for this yet, this yearning.  It is particularly hard when you are close to and love the people you would like to open up to about it. But it can be hard for them to understand too. It is easy to be discouraged. 

However, when you create the space, it is then up to others to enter that space if they decide to - but each in their own time. Many people simply aren't ready to delve into the spiritual journey with you. It is a case of accepting this. There is no judgement involved; it is simply a case of each person being master of their own destiny. 

Your presence is enough. The energy you bring is enough.

Oh My Love - John Lennon

My eyes are wide open
Oh my love for the first time in my life
My eyes can see

I see the wind
Oh, I see the trees
Everything is clear in my heart
I see the clouds
Oh, I see the sky
Everything is clear in our world

Oh my love for the first time in my life
My mind is wide open
Oh my lover for the first time in my life
My mind can feel

I feel the sorrow
Oh, I feel dreams
Everything is clear in my heart
I feel life
Oh, I feel love
Everything is clear in our world

Love Yourself

Always try to look after yourself,
Look after Your physical body,
Look after Your soul,
Look after Your mind.

Love Yourself, 
You can only love others fully,
If you first replenish Your own energy,
If you first nourish the love that is within You.

Don't feel guilty about looking after Yourself these days,
Because this gives You the energy,

The energy to invite Others into Your energy field,

Should They desire it.

Be kind to Yourself,

Give Yourself fully to the energy,

To be the best You can be,

In every single moment.

This will be easy,

When You love Yourself,
For then you can best serve others,
Because ultimately there is no difference,
Between Yourself and Others,
Serve Others - serve Yourself,
Serve Yourself - serve Others.
