Life springs from love. The origin is love and life seeks love. The goal of life is also love, and in between life is sustained by love. Sri Sri

FEBRUARY 1, 2015

We come again dear ones, to speak of love and oneness, for in reality there is nothing else. Accepting this has proven difficult for many, because outer appearances testify to separateness. Society promotes and functions from this viewpoint and it is what you have taken for granted through many lifetimes. Yes, indeed the many do appear separate, but it is individuality within ONE omnipresent Consciousness that you see.

As you mature spiritually there comes a point where you no longer judge by appearances because you understand that what you see is the mind interpretation of ever present spiritual realities. This is why the world has been called "illusion" by so many enlightened masters. The world is not illusion, how it is perceived is the illusion.

Images of separation and duality are expressions of a world consensus consciousness of separation and duality. You are now evolving and moving beyond the beliefs of an un-awakened consciousness--leaving behind that which has governed you for so long. The message of Oneness is pouring from many spiritually reliable sources because mankind is ready to hear and embrace this, but for some, even those well along in their journey, the idea of Oneness can be difficult.

Most of you have moved beyond considering spiritual ideas to be simply dinner party conversation and have also discovered that you no longer care to engage in arguments about religion. World wide there has been a gradual shifting into a consciousness that sees and understands that there are many paths up the mountain, but only one mountain. Differences that once seemed important simply no longer exist as they once did.

Many find that even as they clear and move beyond old fears and difficulties, they still must live, work, and function in third dimensional situations. This is why you are here dear ones, to remember who you are in spite of appearances to the contrary. While on earth as it is, you will always witness some three dimensional activities. When you find yourself in these situations, keep your energy field clear and filled with Light, which does not allow you to be pulled into lower resonating energy. Live each moment of each day, doing what is given you to do and saying what needs to be said from a place of unconditional love and you will not be in or of the lower resonating energy. However, as we have stated many times, this never means being a "doormat".

Never broadcast spiritual awareness and knowledge to those not of a consciousness to understand it in hopes of changing some unpleasant situation. Your sacred connection to the Divine within must be kept silent, secret, and protected like a newborn babe, until it grows and becomes strong enough to withstand any influence that would take it from you.

Keep the Sacred Self safe and warm, feed it, love it, and watch it grow. As it becomes stronger it will begin to manifest outwardly when you least expect it, in ways you never dreamed of. It may verbalize the perfect solution to resolve some intense situation even though you had never consciously considered such a solution. You many find yourself taking some action (be it small or large) that you had not planned, but which turns out to make some positive impact or previously un-considered change. These are the activities of the deeper, stronger, and more real YOU.

When experiences of this sort begin to appear, you start to understand how the unconditioned (by world beliefs) consciousness works. As an individual begins to evolve and grow more deeply into a consciousness of truth , his mind becomes increasingly unconditioned and begins to replace the previous human, thinking, plotting, planning, mind steeped in concepts about everything. A mind no longer conditioned by false beliefs of duality and separation, interprets the world accordingly. Everyone has had experiences of simply "knowing" without thought at some time when it was needed. Do not diminish these experiences, but embrace and celebrate them.

This higher state of consciousness can only unfold as you choose and allow it. It grows stronger through practice and trust. IT is not some magic button inside a "you" that is separate and apart from the Divine, but it IS YOU, the totality of YOU. Be not afraid dear ones, now when you are being asked to leap off the cliff of your familiar, leaving behind those things that have represented security for you (even though much of that familiar security may have been experienced as discord and pain).

Humans tend to hold tightly to what they are familiar with. Remember this when you are deciding whether or not to move beyond someone or some situation in your life that you know has completed and can only serve to hold you in old energy. All is proceeding according to plan for everyone who has made the choice to evolve, even though it may not look that way. We see Light flowing with ever increasing intensity with each person who awakens out of the illusion.

Never forget that you chose specifically to incarnate within this ascension time frame in order complete your own issues through experiences and clearings, and then move on to assist in the awakening of others. Try not to drag your feet, "hemming and hawing" that things must be this way or that before you can be more "spiritual". You already are spiritual, it is just a matter of accepting it.

God is all there is, and therefore you must also be this same "all that is"--there can be nothing outside of Omnipresence. The sooner you allow yourself to accept this, the sooner you can begin living it.

Each time you sit quietly, resting in the Light of your own Divinity, you are adding awareness to universal consciousness. Meditation no longer needs to be the heavily structured process most of you were taught. Meditation teachings that state; "you must sit this way, keep the spine straight, and feet on the floor", etc. etc. were simply disciplines designed to help beginners quiet themselves and concentrate within. Structure is necessary for an un-enlightened human mind used to being busy every second, but you are no longer beginners.

The goal of meditation is simply to rest in a quiet awareness of Oneness--that silent place where you can sigh and state to yourself; "I and the Father are ONE" and then rest for a moment or two in that peace. This holy place eventually becomes easy to access and is part of every waking moment at which time, meditation as you know it is no longer necessary because you are living it.

Practice being centered as you go about your chores, your employment, walk through a quiet forest, or even down a busy city street. You can do this in the midst of a difficult day simply by finding a bathroom, closing the door, taking a deep breath, and resting in "I am".

Meditation need not be as difficult as so many believe it to be. Difficulties come when it is entered into with expectations based on concepts heard about or read regarding what must happen, what it must look like, or what one must feel. Meditation is simply the practice of resting in what you already are, and is not something you must attain. Let go of teachings that say meditation must be a certain way or it is not valid. Your decision to go within is your validity. You ARE that which you are seeking.

Keep sacred practices and unfoldments secret and silent within, for these constitute the Babe that must be kept safe until strong and grown. Share your spiritual pearls only with those who are connoisseurs of pearls.

All is One. Remember that, live that, be that, and you will change the world.

MARY MAGDALENE: Masculine and Feminine Forms of Manifestation

Rider Waite Magician

Part 9 of a Message
Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On November 16, 2014

At Unity of Sedona

Question: I have a question about manifesting. I’ve had times where I’ve had incredible things manifest from the most gentle of energies, where I have no agenda about something. On the other extreme, I’ve had incredible things manifest from a very demanding, forceful energy. I’ve always thought of those as the Masculine and Feminine energies working. I’ve also been really intrigued by what life is like if you marry those energies together, which I think is something you talk about. My sense is that if you really bring those together and really integrate them, it’s not just a littlemore connected, it’s like infinitely more connected, and the manifestation process is off the scale. Does that make sense?

 

Mary Magdalene: Absolutely.

 

It is important to understand that the Masculine is not about force. The Masculine can be incredibly powerful. And the Feminine can be incredibly powerful.

 

The Masculine is about will, intention, focus, directing toward a goal, and then progressing toward the goal. This is the Masculine in action. There is also the higher Masculine in quality, which is entirely about transcendence.

 

It seems to me that what you are describing are the forms of the Masculine and Feminine in action.

 

Questioner: That sounds right, yes.

 

Mary Magdalene: And I highly recommend the union.

 

Questioner: I’m looking forward to it.

 

Mary Magdalene: And so you should. (She laughs gently.)

Heavenletter #5182 The World Offers Enchantment, February 1, 2015 

God said: 

It is true. You are to follow your own heart. You are your own drummer. This is not to say that you are to necessarily follow all of your immediate impulses. You may want another ice cream sundae. This does not mean you have to say Yes to another ice cream sundae.

You may want with all your heart to have a new car. This doesn’t necessarily mean you are to buy one just now. Sometimes it isn’t a choice, or a good choice for you. It is not a bad thing when you cannot afford something. Not having the money helps you to discern and make decisions.

It is good for you to follow your dreams. Of course, all dreams aren’t about spending money. In the relative world, everything depends.

Common sense also has its place. Nor can it be said that common sense is to rule. Whose common sense is it? Yours or someone else’s? Results are not always the test. What you see as good results or unfortunate results may not tell the tale. Eventually, someone would have discovered the sought-after New World. If Christopher Columbus had initially listened to the advice of the world, it wouldn’t have been Christopher Columbus who discovered America.

It is not always so easy to know where your heart is leading you or whether it is truly your heart at all. Many a man and woman have fallen in love. Their hearts were certainly happy, and yet how many of these happy hearts married great happiness?

However much anything may be seen as a mistake, no one really knows. Something may be regretted, yet that doesn’t have to mean that it was a mistake. Oh, yes, you might choose differently now. You might unchoose the marriage you chose, for instance, yet you cannot say with accuracy that you made a mistake.

Perhaps another way to say this is that mistakes are also part of life. If it is true that there are no accidents, then, no matter how something may appear to you in hindsight, it was not a mistake.

Regardless, you may well be wiser. Or maybe not, for so it is said that many of My children seemingly repeat their mistakes.

One could say that life itself is a process of making mistakes.

I will tell you this: Life in the world would be dull without your making what you call mistakes. What if you were always on time and always in the right place at the time? What if your mascara never smudged? If you never spilled milk, what would you have to cry over? What if you never lost your keys? What if you always said the right thing? What if you never had to go to the dentist? Do you not gain some joy from the stirring that life provides?

Earth life is about the unplanned-for which may or may not have been what you wanted. Life is for the unexpected, for with unexpected, you take leaps. You have to. And often you rise above. Often you make it across a bumpy road.

If you could paint your life as you wish at any given moment, you would not be painting a true picture of life in the world. Of course, you like to dream of a perfect life. More power to you.

None of Us know at a given time what is perfect and what is not. None of Us know with certainty where a road will lead, uphill or downhill. The straight and narrow is not always better than the wild and woolly. Beauty and the Beast may not be what they seem. No one always wins the lottery. But, hey, this is life in the world. The world holds enchantment for you. Regardless of how you may sum up your life, life itself is enchanting. You always succeed in the pure living of life regardless of your evaluation of it.

Sivananda Daily Reading


2 February

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 04:26 AM PST

Garden of Virtue 
Forgiveness is the greatest virtue which shines forth in all its splendour in the devotee. Courage and patience are the twin qualities of a real aspirant. Humility is the highest of all virtues. God helps you only when you feel truly humble. Humility is not cowardice. It is meekness and not weakness. Humility and meekness are indeed spiritual powers. Make patience thy strength. Assert it. Feel it. Will it.
Non-attachment comes very slowly. It gives a new sense of freedom and peace. Anger is the worst fire. Lust is an all-consuming fire. Both will scorch you. Extinguish these fires through love and purity. Meditate. Think: "I am the fearless, immortal soul". Then fear will vanish.
True love is the greatest power on earth. It rules without a sword and binds without a cord. To love God is to love all. To love all is to love God. Spread the message of love. Practise cosmic love. Love all. Embrace all. Be kind to all. This will remove jealousy, hatred, etc. To love all is the secret of Self-realisation and liberation.
The four fundamental virtues are patience, adaptability, kind speech and pure conduct. Justice, temperance, courage and wisdom are also great virtues. Virtue is the golden key which opens the gate to the abode of eternal bliss.
Cultivate divine virtues such as purity, courage, humility, self-restraint, non-violence truth, mercy, faith, etc.  Be virtuous. You are on the way to wisdom. In the garden of your heart plant the lily of love, the rose of purity, the champaka of courage, the mandara of humility and the lady of the night of compassion.
- - -
Virtue is knowledge. Virtue is excellence. Knowledge is the ripe fruit of the fine flower of virtue. Think well. All saints teach that you must do good in thought and word and deed. This is the principle of morality.

A Retrograde and Visionary February 


The astrology of February features Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Mercury is of course implicated through its three-week retrograde that lasts to the end of the month, when you take the time passage represented by its 'retrograde shadow' into account. Because the onset of the Mercury Retrograde, in mid-Aquarius, followed the Aquarius New Moon by only one day, and with Saturn in the picture as well, this has been quite a powerfully introspective time. As 2015 gets rolling thoughtful people everywhere cannot help but wonder where this global society is heading, with terrorism on the increase, including the state-sponsored variety, and the rising threats of global warming, environmental degradation and income inequality. As we look more closely into these issues we perhaps may find that they all come back to the human psyche and its evolution toward what the relatively optimistic amongst us would like to imagine is a "Wisdom Culture" in the making; although how to get there is the enormous challenge that we face in our times. We might be able to recognize that it is only by the spiritual evolution that is distinctly possible on the part of each one of us that the world will be relieved of its suffering, and that the time for action is indeed getting short.

These reflections have their cosmic equivalence in this month's astrology, with a prominent Jupiter andNeptune in contrast with Saturn, newly entered into Sagittarius, Jupiter's sign. The meaning of the Jupiterarchetype, also Neptune, has its positive flair and its belief in possibility over the necessity to hold back, so that the contrast with the sense of limitation provide by stodgy old Saturn is quite palpable. Jupiter is greatly emphasized now, being solitary, especially at the timing of the recent New Moon, in one half of the Zodiac. All the other planets in the Aquarius New Moon configuration come after Saturn, occupying the four signs that follow Sagittarius in Zodiacal order, through Aries. This makes Saturn the 'leader' of this planetary pattern.Saturn is emphasized in this New Moon chart in other ways, being square to Neptune and Mars and sextile to the Sun and Moon, while Jupiter is also featured in the Full Moon chart for February 3rd. Neptune in its own sign of Pisces is the ruler now of Mars, as he conjoins Neptune at the timing of the New Moon while Saturnsquares him.

When Saturn, Neptune and Jupiter face off in this way there is a corresponding struggle within the psyche for taking an optimistic-idealistic stance and yet also a conservative approach. Then, too, Uranus and Pluto are powerfully invoked in this month's configurations as well, being aspected by Jupiter in the New Moon chart, and by the Sun and Moon at the timing of the Leo Full Moon.

We are therefore entering into, with this monthly cycle, an introspective period of time when we are both pulled forward into new ways of thought and belief while at the same time struggling to maintain our balance in the midst of the recognition of limitation and an upsurge in conservative empowerment. This is a tricky monthly cycle to be sure, and one in which perhaps the only real choice is to put our reliance on the activity of a benevolent cosmos to pull us through, to the extent that we can manage that feat of faith and transcendent imagination.
