Love is that which you cannot fully express or hide. Beauty is that which you cannot possess or renounce. Truth is that which you cannot avoid.

Heavenletter #5008 Citizen of Heaven, August 11, 2014 

God said: 

You are more than the person who sits in your house. You are more than the person who lives in your town or city. You are more than the person who lives in a state or province. You are more than the person who lives in a country. You are more than the person who lives in a continent. You are more than the person who lives on land or sails the seas. You are more even than a citizen of the world.
 
You are a Child of God, and you are also a citizen of Heaven with all the rights and privileges. You are limited to nothing, beloveds, to nothing at all. This means you are unlimited. You are beyond borders or boundaries. You are unbounded. This is the Truth. You are Great. You are Greatness personified.
 
Despite the evidence of the world, there is no greater than the Soul of You. This applies regardless of your I.Q. or any other attribute. This has nothing to do with fame or popularity. It has to do with Being, God-sanctioned Being. No one’s Beingness is less. All souls are powerful beyond imagining. No soul is limited. A body may be limited. The world may set limits. Your soul is unlimited. If you cannot walk, your soul is unlimited just the same. If you have no arms or legs, your soul is unlimited. If you cannot hear, your soul is unlimited. If you cannot see, your soul is unlimited. If your mind cannot think, your soul is unlimited. No matter what the picture of you in the world may be, you are an unlimited Being, and your soul can soar and be beautiful and wondrous and wise and serve a purpose beyond what the world or anyone in it can contemplate.
 
The soul is free. Nothing boxes it in. Nothing holds it back. You are a free-wheeling soul. This is your True Identity. Any other titles given to you do not apply. King and Queen are titles too small to touch even the hem of your soul.
 
You are not only soul, you are a blessed soul. Soul is your true stature. Do not let anything else mislead you.
 
You are all Great Beings who mostly have no idea of the power and the glory that you are or that anyone else is.
 
The world is deceptive, beloveds. The world is a cheat. It would cheat you of your True Identity. The world assesses as it assesses. The world promotes what it promotes. It promotes more, and it promotes less. Of Greatness it professes too little. It makes much of nothing, and that includes gold. The goldenness of soul outshines all the treasures and values of the world. Good looks, vast fortune, all that is valued in the world do not light a candle to soul, and to your soul.
 
Soul is unapproachable. Nothing can come near. Not all the tea in China, not all the treasures of the sea, not all the contents of vaults and museums can touch even the toes of souls. Souls are simply boundless. The soul has no restrictions. And you are Soul. There is an adjective in English called soulful, and that often means deeply sad. This meaning couldn’t be further from the truth of the meaning of Soul-full.
 
The whole story is Soul. You are this beautiful immeasurable Soul. This is the real extent of you. Your soul equals Infinity and Eternity. In this sense, We can say that your Soul plunders the Universe. It takes precedence over Everything. It reigns. A whole Infinity of Soul is going on in the world that seems to be broken into pieces of this and pieces of that. You are Infinite Soul.
 
Yes, you are all Great Souls. Souls gather themselves and manifest as Oneness.

Michigan, US of A. 
Teacher Ophelius. 
Subject: “Go with the Flow – Embrace Change.” 

Received by Chris. 

Teacher Ophelius: “The message for today is about embracing change. What do I mean by this? Each one of you will come to a place where you must ‘shift’ and move from where you are today to where you shall betomorrow, whether it is a state of awareness, a change in jobs, a new home, a new relationship, or releasing an old relationship that no longer serves you. These are all ‘chapters’ of your life that must be experienced, yet like a book, the chapter must be completed and come to a close, for new life, and new experiences await you in the chapters ahead where you may discover new meanings and new ways to grow in Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. These are all rungs on a ladder, my friends, which you must climb to move from imperfection to perfection as you are guided along your life plan by Spirit. 

“Many of you students on the path are feeling this ‘tug’ to move, to change, to reinvent your lives and to step out of your comfort zone which you have settled into for so long. It feels as if a new day is dawning and you no longer fit into the old routine and rhythm that you have known for so long. Change is inevitable – it shall come, but how you handle the change will determine the difficulty or ease of the transition – that period where you adjust and make space for the new era of your life. Will you resist it, or will you flow with it? Will you be fearful, or will you have faith that Spirit has your best and highest welfare in mind – helping you to grow and discover greater levels of love and personality maturity? 

“When you become aware that you are moving into a transition of change, also be aware of the synchronicity that accompanies that change. This is a time for new opportunities and many signs will point the way, which will help keep you aligned with your life plan – that ideal life where potentials can be developed for the greatest amount of soul growth for the given abilities and accumulated wisdom gleaned thus far in your life experience. Those with the greatest amount of faith will seize the moment and step into the greatest of opportunities, while those who are more fearful, will let those optimal moments go by and may take a lessor path with more difficulty. These more difficult paths are learning opportunities and there can be much value in them, yet to those who will ‘go with the flow’ and do not resist, but instead embrace it, may find the greatest joy and satisfaction on the other side of the transition. 

“Please keep in mind, my friends that all will be well in time and eternity and there is nothing for you to fear. God knows what you need even before you ask for it, therefore ‘seek and you shall find, ask and it shall be given, knock and the door will be opened to you.’ These are not fairytale clichés, but are real ‘cause and effect’ outcomes for those of great faith. Communicate your needs and desires to Spirit, and do not impose expectations as to how they will unfold – go with the flow of opportunities and step into the next destination of your life. When you live your life by faith, you shall have no regrets, for God desires that you have a joyful life filled with love and treasured experiences. If it is not that way now, then look forward to the change that is upon you and embrace it! 

“Peace to you, 
“The Circle of Seven.”

Sivananda Daily Reading

Yoga of Self-Surrender 
Repeat this formula very often and with intense faith: "The Lord is my strength, my support and my stay." Thus you will derive strength, power and peace.
God knows what is best for you and He does what is best for you. His ways are mysterious - know His ways and become wise.
Slay egoism and desire, they are the enemies, the obstacles of self-surrender. You may accuse God and say: "He is not just; He is cruel.  Vicious persons are thriving I am virtuous and yet I suffer. There is no God." Later on you will realise that He has done the best thing for you.
Do not pray to the Lord for the removal of sufferings. Pray to Him to grant you power of endurance and patience to bear all calamities.
A devotee remains unaffected by adversities, trials and tribulations. He knows and feels that they are all karmic purgations and are the real messengers of God. He welcomes them calmly.
A devotee alone gets troubles and adversities; because this is his last birth, many karmas have to be worked out and he must be united with the Lord in this very birth.
God gives immense strength and patience to His devotee to bear troubles and calamities. The devotee is ever calm and cheerful - he is not affected by them as his mind ever dwells in the contemplation of the Lord. He is not body-conscious.
Murmur not. Grumble not. Even a leaf cannot fall without the will of God. What is destined to take place as willed by God, takes place. Face the difficulties, the battle of life with a smile. Become a brave soldier. Difficulties come to intensify your faith, to strengthen your will and power of endurance and to turn your mind more and more towards God.
Pain is the great eye-opener. It is your silent teacher. It will make you remember God. Kunti prayed: "O Lord Krishna, give me pain always so that I may ever remember you." The more troubles and adversities you get, the stronger and firmer will be your faith in God. They will mould you into a divine being. Welcome them.
- - - - -
Seek God's grace through self-surrender and He will show you the way. Transient are all mundane things! Evanescent are all earthly forms! Seek the immortal and attain bliss eternal.
