When you are filled with joy, when you have blossomed in love, only then can you appreciate beauty.

Creator:  How Our Universe Began, and The Invasion from Omarrhan

Ok, here we go.  Take a deep breath and come with me.  I have something to show you that will take your breath away.  I want you to find a comfortable place to sit while you read this, where you can remain in meditation afterward to continue the journey with me.  If that is not possible at this moment, then make an appointment for us to meet later in the day, and I will accompany you then as well.  There is no limit to my ability to meet with you, to reassure and teach you.  It is only up to you to call on me.

Now, we are going to take a trip around the Universe - the Universe that is my home and yours.  It is true that a few of you have come from other Universes to be here with us during this monumental time.  We are making history together, in terms of our Universe and all others as well.  Let me tell you how this came about.

We are not the oldest Universe of our kind.  There was another nearby Universe which was under development when I came along - that is, when I came into being as the child/creation of the One.  I was taught about Creation by witnessing the building of that Universe, which I will refer to as Omarrhan.  I saw how intricately the beings, planets and stars are intertwined with one another, and I saw how one tiny mistake on the part of the Creator could explode into chaos.  Such a mistake could lead to the necessity of dissolving the entire Creation, dispersing into nothingness the trillions of years of effort and dedication of the Creator and his/her dedicated team.

It was about the time that Omarrhan began to experience trouble that One encouraged me to begin my own Universe-building, and so began the work of Creation that is my beloved Universe.  I began with galaxies which would contain beautiful planets, stars of magnificent brightness and power, and vast inner space which I filled with the essence of my Love.  It was only after billions of years as you measure it in Earth time that I began to create the first living souls of Light which would eventually inhabit the planets I had made for them.  First, I created groups of planets, like your solar system, so that each living planet soul would have loving company as they danced in their rhythmic motion around their glowing sun, the great light-body which would be their central pivot point.

It was a great delight giving birth to the Lightbeings who are my children - those souls who, after billions of years of training would become my assistants in creation, and who would eventually disperse across the galaxies to create loving families of planets and stars, with some variations, but generally along the lines of my original designs. There were as yet no living organisms in bodies on or within the planets.  Only the planets and stars themselves were inhabited by my soul children.  

Eventually, we began the great project which was the creation of individual bodies.  My children were interested in producing their own progeny, for they loved each other and our glorious Universe, and they wanted to create races of beings for their soul children to inhabit, thereby increasing their opportunity for greater experience and Love.  Now I will help you to envision what the process of Creation really is, and how we created this beautiful Universe and all that is in it.

You are not unfamiliar with some of the elements of creation, of course.  Anyone who has chosen a partner and you have decided together to have a child - you know how thrilling it is to be consciously, purposefully involved in the act of creation.  This is the way every child should be conceived, with Love and with intention.  This is the way we created every living thing in the Universe - with loving intention.  

As many of you know, there are many races of humanoid beings across your Universe, as there are in other Universes.  Those of us who are the Prime Creators are like brothers and sisters, the loving children of One, the first-born who would become the teachers and mentors of those who would come after.  Picture in your mind's eye the interconnected energies which flow between and among the group consciousness which is the family of Creators. As our numbers grew, we welcomed our new brothers and sisters the way a family celebrates the birth of a new baby. 

Our Universes move and expand, breathing with the essence of Life. Each Universe has its own quality and character, instilled by the Creator whose hand shaped it, but all follow the same Universal Laws, use the same sacred geometry and the same laws of physics which your scientists are just beginning to discover.  Just as each of you paints your living room a different shade, so we are attracted to slightly different sounds, shapes and colors.  It was thrilling to look forward to the creative inspiration of having a new Creator among us, and to envision together the fabulous possibilities that lay before us.

How can I paint the picture for you as vividly as I see it?  You have seen the photographs from NASA, from satellites and so forth.  The colors of the palette we have used is breathtaking, endlessly varied, and far more beautiful than you can discern from the small photographs you have been given.  As I look across the expanses that are my Home, I am struck, always, with the nostalgia of seeing the Divine objects and beings that have come into being under my watchful and loving eye.  

No, I did not create every insect, every flower and every animal that moves across the surface of your planet and others, but I did carefully supervise the formulas used, the electro-chemical process which is ignited when two or more souls meld their intention, passion and love, and I have been present at the birth of every soul.  You see, the creation of the physical forms is a very different process from the creation of a soul.  A soul is an eternal, everlasting Light body with a unique identity and is a living part of All That Is.  A body, on the other hand, is an impermanent vessel which is designed to offer the soul a flexible alternative for visiting lower realms - dimensions of a lower vibration than the one in which they were born.

Initially, there were just a few of my children who joined me in the process of Creation, for this is not the only activity available for beings in our Universe, as you know.  Their brothers and sisters explored far and wide in their Light bodies, even sometimes traveling to neighboring Universes to study and exchange ideas with their cosmic cousins.  This fertile exchange led to many new species, many new options for ecosystems which could be created to support the growing numbers of species of flora and fauna we were developing to "house" the souls who had a wide-ranging curiosity and taste for adventure.

Perhaps you can see the picture I see, of my beloved children, many of whom became the Ascended Masters who are helping you with your ascension and who have become so familiar to you in recent years.  We still continue to work as a close and loving team, as you have noticed in the way we bring our messages to you, weaving our story as individual voices within the Unity consciousness of One.  It is the great pleasure of my heart to see my children, and their children, all the many souls now inhabiting your planet and others in your galaxy, as they evolve and grow, preparing for the great Ascension which is to come.

As I have begun to show you, the creation of souls has been the particular arena in which I had full oversight and command, and as such, full responsibility for the creation and nurturing of every soul within our Universe.  It is the fulfillment of my being, my destiny, to do so, with unending Love.  The creation of form - bodies - was the realm of all those who wished to learn, experiment and take part in the great expansion of species who were to pave the way for the coming humanoid races, which were among the last forms we created and placed among their fellow inhabitants on the first planets to welcome human-like species.  

An example of this is your own Milky Way Galaxy.  It was created under the supervision of the ones you call Mother and Father God, my beloved children, in preparation for the earlier races of humans who inhabited planets in the systems of the Pleiades, Sirius and those who came from the older Andromeda galaxy.  Out of these developing civilizations came the experiment in this galaxy which was to become the human race as you know yourselves now.  I have described in earlier messages how the older civilizations contributed their DNA, with my full approval and under my supervision, to create the race which is the fullest embodiment of who I AM, in the essence of my being.  Of course, this is a bit of a paradox, since I do not have a body.

This project - the creation of humankind - was not an ego trip or a reckless adventure, for I have none of those impulses within my own being - they are a temporary effect of your carbon-based body experience in lower dimensions.  As you rise up the ladder of vibration, these impulses melt away, but in lower dimensional conditions, these anomalies can cause real difficulties for the inhabitants of the bodies that are subject to such feelings.  

This brings us to the anomaly which has puzzled so many of you.  How is it possible that there can be dark ones - genetically modified Reptilians, greys, Draconians, and all those you have called the dark Anunnaki, who have caused havoc in what appears to you to be the entire Universe.  I will tell you how this began, and why it has continued as a problem, especially within your Milky Way Galaxy.

I mentioned the Omarrhan Universe earlier.  It was the creation of my older soul brother, Rondar, as we came to call him.  Rondar was daring and experimental in his approach to Creation.  He gave much latitude to his soul children to develop bodies of every form and kind, which provided a rich and varied environment on many of the planets in his Universe.  In the lower dimensions there were animals and plants of every type imaginable, with every possible natural luxury for the beings who descended to enjoy the feasts of luscious fruits and vegetables, flowing waters, and endless sunshine, flowers and warmth.  It was truly a Paradise for all.

Although Rondar reveled in his glorious manifestation of Love, it became a topic of concern for his children that the absolute perfection of his 3-dimensional creation did not offer for its inhabitants any means by which to develop a greater connection with One; in fact, it seemed to draw them away from their higher vibrational Selves, downward into the sensory pleasures of the lower dimensional existence.  In other words, they liked it a little too much, and were reluctant to return for further experience in the higher realms.  

And so it was decided in the Councils that just a bit of unpleasantness might spur their abilities to appreciate and remain connected to their Creator - to focus their attention, you might say.  It was decided that the Masters would develop a few insects which would inflict a slightly painful sting, and a few reptiles whose bite would cause sickness, just enough to prevent the myriad inhabitants of this Paradise from becoming lethargic and indolent. The inhabitants were made aware, in their higher dimensional sojourns, of the change which was to occur, but it did not dampen their wish to return.

As time passed, further experiments in genetic engineering continued, and took on a rather daring turn about the time We were developing human-type beings who showed great promise in their abilities to create on their own.  They were talented scientists and inventors, and were very adept at using the energies of the Universe to their own convenience, developing floating and soaring spacecraft, and energy sources which could provide for all the needs of those beings in lower dimensions, like housing, food, and schools to train and educate the young in The True Way, which is Love.

We were aware of the Omarrhan situation, and were seeing the possibility for similar stagnancy in our own worlds, but were uneasy with the solution, which was being called "bringing in the darkness" in hopes of awakening Light.  It made sense from a certain perspective, but seemed risky, since it was our policy to remain as overseers and guides, but not to interfere with the behavior and unfolding of the evolution of those species we had created.  At the same time, civilizations were developing on Omarrhan which had very advanced technologies, including spacecraft which could carry the lower dimensional beings great distances (higher dimensional beings have no need for spacecraft, although it is a great convenience when they wish to carry equipment or materials between planets or galaxies).

It was only a matter of time, so to speak, before the experiment went awry, and a number of the lower dimensional species became fascinated with the idea of experiencing the curiosity of seeing the effect of darkness on themselves and others.  It was only a small step then, to learning how to avoid their Creators, turn their backs on One, and set out on their own to experiment on others.  This was the first "Fall" from Grace, and it spread rapidly across the Universe, to the many planets where indolence, a problem in the lower dimensions, had made the embodied beings of high intelligence restless and ripe for a new kind of excitement.  

Within a few generations, impulses toward destructiveness and the wish to control and dominate others took root and began to flourish, until the entire lower dimensions, up to the lower 5th dimension, became a nightmarish arena filled with pestilence, war, and devastation.  Weaponry was developed which threatened the safety of higher dimensions, as later happened on your Earth.  

With many species of intelligent beings taking part in the melee, and alliances building to create a powerful military force, it was decided that to allow "the experiment" to continue would be too dangerous for the entire Multiiverse, and that the only possible resolution would be to offer amnesty to those who were willing to return to the Light, or suffer dissolution.  

It was not announced that the intention was to destroy the entire Universe, but there was no way to resolve the problem without risk to the rest of the Multiverse.  All souls were welcomed back into higher dimensions, but all physical creation was dissolved back into One.  However, a number of the dark ones sensed trouble and took flight at the first hint of threat, as they were prepared to do, and departed the boundaries of their Universe and entered ours moments before Omarrhan ceased to be.

One might conclude that it would have been wise at the time to muster our space ships to fend off the invaders, but ours was a peaceful Universe, without weaponry or the will to engage in combat.  I was difficult even for our inhabitants to conceive of fighting against their brethren from their sister Universe.  

Of course, I could have taken matters into my own hands and simply destroyed them, but in counsel with my Masters and with One, it was decided that we would take the path of Light and Love, always. We were a strong and resilient group of souls, some of whom had already thoroughly studied the problem of Omarrhan as part of their own development.  It was decided that we would attempt to rehabilitate the dark ones from Omarrhan, while protecting our own territories with a "defensive response only" policy. 

We were joined by a number of the Omarrhan Masters, and we became then the battle ground where Good and Evil would meet the final test.   

It was then that the Galactic Federation of Light was formed, and it grew quickly into an able military alliance under the guidance of the one we now call Ashtar, with the mandate to protect and defend all lower dimensional beings and planets, without at any time declaring war on the invaders.  It was made clear to the dark ones that we could "disappear" them at any time, but that we would work with them to help them find settlements where they would be allowed to live peacefully, but on our terms which did not allow for military intervention toward any planet or group of beings.  With the agreement of Mother and Father God, they were permitted to establish a "refugee" camp on Mars, and later they created outposts on the far side of Earth''s moon. The rest is history, as they say.

You know, from earlier messages, the story of their psychological infiltration, their propaganda campaign, and their tactics of remaining in lower dimensions in order to avoid their review and renewal in higher dimensions.

The part you have not been told was that all the original dark ideas and plans were brought to our shores from another Universe.  They were the beloved children of my Brother, sentient beings who left the protective and loving embrace of their Creator to flee to the far reaches of our Universe in an attempt to prove that darkness is more powerful than Light. They were able to make inroads and win allies, notable among them the Reptilians from Orion who broke from their brethren and joined forces with the invaders, but they have not and will not be triumphant.  The invaders and their allies have been removed from the planet, but their propaganda for the dark remains in the language, the habits and the beliefs of humankind.

You, humankind, have not conquered them through military might, for that would have proven them right. Only through winning the hearts and minds of all humankind will the final shift take place on Planet Earth.  It is not as impossible a task as it might appear from your vantage point on the ground.  As the conditions have worsened, and the disparity between rich and poor has become glaringly deliberate, the masterminds of the dark agendas are being baldly revealed as the criminals they really are. The challenge for humankind will be to remain in Love, find it in your hearts to forgive, even as you send off the perpetrators to spend some time in, shall we say, enforced meditation. 

You see, the triumph of Light over Darkness never could have been resolved by war, for war is darkness, nor could it have been "defeated."  Those who invaded our beloved Home were simply mistaken in their beliefs, and they convinced many of you that they were right, did they not?  Earth had become their playground for a time, but you and I never intended to succumb to their seductions.  You may have forgotten for a brief time that fear is not a viable part of our lives in the Light, and you weakened under the weight of the totalitarian mind control, to a point where you became focused on their destructive tools, implants, psychological manipulations and illnesses, as if they actually controlled you.

Now it is time, Beloved Children, to return to me.  Turn your back on the Omarrhan legacy of darkness and fear, and walk with me in Light and endless Love.  It is our Divine legacy and our Great Plan.  Together we will sing, and we will walk across the globe, our hands open and our hearts alive with the joy of being free.  It is our time.  Come with me.

I am your Creator, we are Gods, and we are One.

Sheldan Nidle - September 16, 2014

11 Ix, 12 Zip, 11 Ik

Selamat Jalwa! We return with much to say! Our earthly allies continue to move forward with the operation to first alter the globe’s currencies and then work toward forging a new form of governance. This two-pronged attack is on the verge of producing a global currency reset, which is to pave the way for a return to a real value system. The end of fiat monies is to be the means to oust the dark cabal from power and permit the delivery of a prosperity program that brings with it new governance and the return of your personal sovereignty. This is yet another step in freeing you from millennia of debt slavery and the system of government that favored the powerful few over the rights of the many. This process must precede our mass landings on your most beautiful shores. The next steps include a complete revision of your currency to encourage the spread of global prosperity. These measures are to lead to disclosure and the much-needed lessons of your Ascended Masters. This, in turn, is to create the conditions that are to ready you for us.

Our mentors have a grand task before them. A pre-selected one is to be assigned to you and gently lead you toward a complete understanding of who you really are. This is preliminary to you glimpsing what full consciousness is all about. This special state of being is Heaven’s way to constantly create and unfold physicality. Thus, each one of us who come to return you to this state of divine grace is gladly used by Heaven to carry out her numerous decrees. We are honored by these duties and work diligently to see that each decree becomes a reality. We see ourselves as divine helpers in the affairs of physicality. This most wondrous environment is for all things physical. It is filled with infinite realities, each abiding by a set of special rules. Like you, we also exist in such realities. Our gift is to return this solar system to its former state as a 5-D reality. This is to permit you to help the former 3-D children of Anchara to develop their own Light Bodies.

For you, divine service is actually an operation that is to secure the last vestiges of the long galactic war and turn them to peace and joy. Some of these new star nations are less than 80 light years from your home. You are to be received with joy and a deep feeling in these beings of at last being free of the pain and sorrow that affected their daily lives. Those who presently come to assist them are greeted with calls for you to come and lead them to full consciousness. We have been told by Heaven that this is because their scientists long ago taught your Atlantean ancestors how you were to be dropped so precipitously into 3-D. This dark deed was accomplished around 15,000 years ago. Your ancestors were kept in special laboratory holding facilities and then sent to a number of associated facilities around your globe. You were released from them when Atlantis was destroyed some 13,000 years ago. Your return to full consciousness is finally to end this brutal experiment.

As you can see, you have an initial task to perform once your new star nation is formed. We are here to move you into full consciousness, introduce you to your Agarthan cousins and train you in full consciousness etiquette. This in hand, you can begin to perform your divine service as a member of the Galactic Federation. Each of you possesses a series of unique abilities, which are to be used to form your new star nation and carry out your first dedicated teaching mission. Once all of this is completed you can begin to serve this galaxy by being included in special delegations to open up talks with other galaxies about expanding membership in our growing Inter-Galactic Union. This activity alone is to open up vast possibilities for your new star nation and for this galaxy. Much has happened here, which is now to produce important points of joy for you. Thousands of galaxies have joined together to share technology, exchange their cultures and make literally tens of billions of beings aware of each other. The future is indeed bright!

Namaste! We are your Ascended Masters! You, Dear Ones, live at a most exceptional time! Heaven blesses you with prosperity, new governance and your personal freedom. Your world is exploding with joy, as you are now ready to be gifted. Prosperity, Blessed Ones, is merely a means to an end. Use these blessings to advance the state of your world. Help one another. Collectively employ these opportunities to alter how this realm operates. We intend to come shortly and help you to better understand how this all works. You also require heavenly reasons for employing this divine right time to transform the ways you daily use your time and resources. Together, Dear Hearts, you are mighty, strong and devoted to the creating of a kinder, gentler reality. This reality is ready to manifest. By your deeds, a new, more sacred realm can indeed arise! Let this wondrous moment be the start of fulfilling your dreams.

As you work to achieve these dreams, remember that they happen with each other. Heal your relationships with family and friends, and keep in mind that Heaven also wishes you the best. Together, we are a divine team. Keep us all in mind as your prosperity appears before you. Use this prosperity to work your own miracles. Begin to believe deeply that you are connected to each other. This collective energy is a healing energy, and built on wonders that you are to attain. These joint energies can heal this planet, heal your society and most of all, heal yourselves. Use them wisely! Our associates have carefully collected and hidden these away for this joyous moment. It is thus vital that you treat these gifts wisely. Be ready to perform acts that are to help others. Be ready to use your prosperity to change this realm in a positive way.

As you make your way through these coming days, be ever mindful of your responsibilities to this world and to yourself. Contribute as best you can to what is to transform this globe. Know deep in your heart how mindful you have to be. These gifts are not just for yourselves. They need to be shared. What is to occur is meant to change this global society positively and lead the way to freedom and your becoming galactic humans. Each of us understands the long path that humanity has trod for millennia. This path is to lead to a global ascension of humanity. We watch these developments in joy. Now each of you can practice the wondrous joy that we experience daily. The terrors of limited reality are to be replaced by the infinite fulfillment of full consciousness. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Today, we continued our weekly message. As you can see, many wonderful things are ready to manifest. Be gracious! Be thankful! Be humble! Faithfully carry out your joy and help one another. Be ready to explain what other wonders are to happen. You are not alone. We come to transform you and your society. Know, dear Ones, that the countless Supply and never-ending Prosperity of Heaven are indeed Yours! So Be It! Selamat Gajun! Selamat Ja! (Sirian for Be One! and Be in Joy!)

Urantia. 
Teacher: The Beloved One. 
Subject: “The Greatest Visible Sign.”

Received by Lytske. 

The Beloved One: “You have been mulling over your morning devotional reading, for you came upon this sentence: ‘The greatest sign ever given.’ The true meaning of this, and how extremely valuable the knowledge of this one sentence would be for the world’s citizenry, if only they would know this and think deeply about what this truly means! The meaning of this visible sign at that tremendous occasion, happening over two thousand years ago, simply proves that life goes on after death, and that death is nothing to be feared. I am, of course, referring to the resurrection of Jesus. In truth and fact he resurrected himself after his Crucifixion. His being a Son of God, he had the power to lay down his life and take it back up again. 

“He alluded to this when he spoke about it in a parable about a house being destroyed, and that he would build it up again within three days, yet no one, not even the apostles, understood. This event alone ought to have changed the appreciation for his teachings on the planet, and even though the apostles and significant others tried to spread this wonderful message, thus far little significance has been allotted to the real life and teachings of Jesus. 

“What was the true significance of Jesus speaking in parables? He wanted his listeners to draw their own conclusions and think deeper. It was his way of showing the masses, and the educated people of that time, that there were mysteries they could not fathom due to their level of unbelief, even though some among them were the teachers of their flock. The wonderful realization and truth that they were hosting the ruler and creator of a mighty universe escaped them. During his tenure on earth, Jesus revealed the nature of an unconditionally loving God to them. He was always speaking in terms of my and your Father in heaven. 

“The truth of this wonderful message, and all of Jesus’ teachings about an unconditionally loving Creator God, has been obscured and grossly misinterpreted. Instead they have become the story about Jesus. With the Epochal Revelation (the Urantia Book), the real truth will finally be rediscovered and taken out the caves of dogma, superstition and theology. Some deeper thinking minds are beginning to realize what that stupendous event means for all time, and for all of creation. 

“Very little of the example of his life in always doing the will of God, and in expressing his unconditional love for all, has been accepted by the people of this planet, who still labor under false superstitions and belief systems. The true significance of his life and teachings will someday be more widely known and accepted, and hopefully put into practice. 

“This is the intention of the celestials, who work under the mandates of this same Jesus, better known as Michael, as the Correcting Time on this backward planet is slowly gathering momentum. However, it all depends on the willingness of its inhabitants whether they accept the clarion call to wake up and do their part.”

Heavenletter #5045 You Are a Photographer of the World, September 17, 2014 

God said: 

Enter into the Soul of the Universe. Enter your soul into the Universe. Traverse the Universe.
 
Have you heretofore been playing in a small yard? There is a vaster range before you. Expand your vision. Expand what you give to the Universe. The world, as you presently see it, simply isn’t vast enough for you. Enter greater vistas. You can swim beyond the borders in the world and enter Vastness. You can expand horizons beyond the commonly accepted versions.
 
You have come to Earth to usher in greater pictures. Consider yourself a photographer of the world. Get into a different stance from where you have been taking photos. The world depends upon where you sit. The world depends upon your vision. Enter greater dimensions. Enter greater dimensions that are before you. Explore. Leap high. Get a tall ladder.
 
There is more to life on Earth than you presently register. When you look in only one dimension or direction, you see one view. Stand taller, and you will cover a whole circle. See wider. See further. See.
 
If you sit on a couch in your living-room, you see only the view from the couch. Get up. Get off the couch, and what do you see?
 
You do not have to stay in your comfort zone. You won’t be comfortable there for as long as you want anyway. There comes a time for you to grow. That time is now. That time is always now. You can’t lounge forever.
 
If you are an ice skater, find a bigger rink to skate in. If you are a chef, find new recipes. Everything conceived exists somewhere in the stratosphere. They exist for you to discover. If you wear shoes too small, locate bigger shoes.
 
Locate yourself. What is your place in the Universe? Where do you belong? Where are you? You are situated with Me.
 
Surely, there is greater for you to explore, greater hills and great ladders to climb, greater heights to rise to, greater roads to travel, and greater resources within you. You are a mother lode of gold, and now you are finding your way to your Self.
 
Life is not at a standstill. You are riding an escalator that keeps going and never stops. There is another floor to rise to. You can get off for a while, yet only for a while. You can stay for a while, yet only a while. You cannot sit still for very long. Life will nudge you, prod you, stir you, get you going. In the world lies movement waiting, and so you move. What you are looking for is your original place in the sun. You are looking to locate all that you are at the same time as you haven’t lost any of Who You Are or Where You Are. It only seems so. Within this seeming so, you have to move on. You explore your traction in life and the meaning of it all. You are almost there, here. You have almost discovered yourself and, therefore, you have almost discovered your Identity and Mine.
 
You are right on the verge. What holds you back? Nothing. Why do you think you are held back? Because you haven’t looked around the whole vista of yourself as yet. You may have astigmatism or near-sightedness. To some degree, you battle an inability to see all that is around you and all that is within you.
 
You will meet this Knowingness fully and sigh, “Yes, this is it. This is Who I AM and have been all along.”
 
At the same time, this is a stopping-place only for a while until you rise again to discover an even greater range right within your reach.

Sivananda Daily Reading


18 September

Posted: 17 Sep 2014 02:15 AM PDT

Samadhi 
Still the waves of the mind and hold it steady in nirvikalpa samadhi (unconditioned state of super-consciousness). This needs constant, protracted practice of meditation. There may be breaks in the meditation in the beginning, but practice makes you perfect. Later you will be able to remain absorbed in meditation for long periods. You can merge yourself in samadhi, with a mind like a flame protected from wind.
Before getting sanguine success in meditation get victory over the pose first. Sit upon your seat with the steadiness of a rock ­ for two or three hours. If the body is steady then the mind will also be steady.
Do not mistake a little concentration or one-­pointedness of mind for samadhi. Simply because you have risen a little above body consciousness, on account of a little concentration, do not think that you have attained samadhi.
Separate the mind from the body and unite it with the Supreme Self. This is known as samadhi or the super-conscious state. This will give liberation or freedom from births and deaths. Samadhi is obtained by practice for a long time and with zeal and enthusiasm.
Samadhi is the highest goal which one can attain through meditation. It is not a little thing that can be attained through a little practice. To attain samadhi one should observe strict brahmacharya (celibacy), dietetic restrictions and one must have purity of heart.
If these are not attained there is no possibility of attaining samadhi. These are preliminary qualifications and should be well grasped. Then only one should try to enter the portals of samadhi. None can enter there unless he is a great devotee of the Lord.
- - -
Moksha (liberation) is loss of one's personality in the divine. It is deliverance from the delusion of personality. Just as the river becomes the ocean itself, the individual soul becomes the mighty supreme soul, with higher consciousness, transcendental bliss and knowledge.

The Sweetness of Life by Archangel Metatron
Channelled through Natalie Glasson- 24-10-13-www.omna.org
How does one describe the sweetness of life? How can you access the sweetness of life and does life have an eternal
sweetness to it that is yours to revel in? These are questions that I wish to speak of today and to ask you to contemplate. Is
there such an existence as experiencing sweetness in your life with every moment of your reality and are you deserving of the
sweetness of life?
As you are aware, your life upon the Earth is a process of learning, you could say that it is no more than a process of learning.
Could you allow yourself to accept that your experiences, connections, interactions with your reality, loved ones, animals and
yourself are simply processes of learning?  Surely this would take away meaning, purpose and authenticity from your reality
and existence upon the Earth? As always it is for you to decide how you choose to answer such questions and perspectives
put to you but by accepting that every aspect of your reality and even your existence upon the Earth is a process of learning
for you, you allow yourself to detach from your reality seeking the truth within every experience, feeling or thought. In a reality of
learning where multiple options, ideas and scenarios are given, you have the purpose of seeking the truth; this is the truth
within your being.
Truth can be an unpredictable process of learning and activation within your being because there is no way of validating the
truth of the Creator, even as an Archangel speaking with you now, I can only share with you what I believe to be my truth and
yet I have no solid validation from the Creator as I speak. I do however have a feeling of deep absolute and complete love as I
share my truth with you now which is all the validation that I need to continue to hold complete faith in the presence of the
Creator flowing around and through my being. Seeking truth can ask you to question yourself, your beliefs and your
understanding. Seeking truth asks you to be discerning and to clear yourself of false beliefs while raising your energy
vibration so that you are open and awake to new inspirations and insights that fill you with love and amazement. Seeking truth
asks you to familiarise yourself with your own energies and your thought processes so that you may pin point from where
within your being your truth is unfolding. If when you access your truth or inspiration within you the ego activates and egotistical
reactions occur then you know that you have not yet stimulated your inner truth. Egotistical reactions can be the feeling of
wishing to prove another wrong, manipulation, your power being enhanced while taking away the power of others. Even
sadness, negativity, lack, bullying, judgement and fear are aspects of the ego which can cloud the truth or divine inspiration
from unfolding within your being. The more that you become familiar with the way that you act and react in your daily life the
more you will notice when you are speaking, thinking or feeling an illusion and when the truth is emerging from within your
being. You may see that seeking to realise your own inner truth which could also be described as your intuition or the voice of
the Creator is a powerful process of learning and growth.
Allow yourself to acknowledge every thought, emotion, action, reaction and experience in your life as a process of learning.
Then see how you react to this shift in your awareness, does it make a difference to the way that you view yourself, the way
you approach situations and the way that you proceed in your reality? Does it allow you to take a step back and simply
observe? This will allow you to rest and release a tremendous amount of pressure that you place upon yourself, reality, others
and your spiritual growth.
Accessing and exploring your inner truth is an aspect of the sweetness of life, because once you allow a certain amount of
detachment from your reality on the Earth you offer yourself freedom and the ability to experience the sweetness of life. The
greatest tool for experience the sweetness of life is appreciation; it is not even gratitude but accessing a perceptive of
appreciation for the flow of life and the physical reality upon the Earth. When you release yourself from the compressing
pressure that you place upon yourself daily you begin to realise that everything is joyous, that there is sweetness to life, your
life, which you can taste, feel, experience, interact with and see.  This sweetness isn’t even the presence of the Creator but is
the beauty that is within you and all around you, the ability to love unconditionally, to laugh, to be free, to smile, to feel love, to
hold faith, to feel supported,  to express yourself and the divine within you fully and to live free from fear. All these things you
can give freely to yourself and can experience fully.
The sweetness of life that I speak of is the presence of life itself, the experience of being alive and the experiences of the life
force energy of the Creator. You have a divine and sacred connection with the Creator and in this life time can experience the
Creator fully.
Practice of Accessing the Sweetness of Life
If you take a moment to imagine yourself surrounded by everything that you feel limits you or is a burden upon you, it can be
the most mundane aspect of physical life, your emotional life or your mental life.
Imagine that these limitations and burdens have cords connecting to you; know that you chose to create these cords of
connection so that you would carry the limitations and burdens with you in your reality. Maybe you have even chosen that once
some burdens or limitations have been overcome that you will attach or create another to replace it. Examples of this could
be constantly not being able to pay bills, being abused, constantly loosing objects, experiencing fear and so forth.
Then remind yourself that there is sweetness to your reality, there is beauty, freedom, love, truth, bliss and peace for you to
experience fully but you only need to allow yourself to. As you allow the love within your heart and soul to manifest and to
emanate from within your being, imagine that the love dissolves all bonds of connection and ask that Archangel Michael uses
his sword of light to severe your connection with the burdens and limitations eternally. See, sense or acknowledge them
flowing away from you.
Now allow yourself to energetically experience yourself, energy and reality free from the burdens and limitations, in this
moment you are connecting with the sweetness of your life, you may feel loved, joyous, blissful, peaceful, a sense of freedom
and the ability to make changes in your reality.
To exist in this manner externally is your divine right.
By letting go of your attachments to burdens and limitations you are not resolving the issues nor are you ignoring them but you
are allowing yourself to enter into a place of personal power and a space within and around you that is attuned and aligned
with the Creator. When you are attuned and aligned with the Creator you also access the truth of your being, inspiration,
intuition and inner guidance. So the sweetness of life is not only to appreciate all that is within and around you as sacred gifts
but to know that you have the guidance within you to move through any situation with ease joy and perfection.
The sweetness of life is to remove yourself from self-inflicted suffering.
By detaching from the burdens and the limitations you are releasing yourself from the experience and feeling of suffering.
Whatever you perceive the sweetness of life to be, suffering isn’t present and doesn’t allow you to fully explore yourself and
energies. It may allow you to explore negative emotions and energies but are these really a part of your being and truth,
meaning is suffering present within the vibrations of the Creator?  It may be difficult to accept when you are experiencing
suffering of any form, but suffering can be a self-inflicted creation, it is also a lesson created by yourself asking you to love
yourself unconditionally.
With your loving power restored, a connection with your intuitions and a feeling of love emanating, you will notice that the
burdens and limitations do not hold such power over you and can be resolved by you with tremendous ease. So you are
accessing and realising the sweetness of life.
I also wish to bring focus to your emotions and how your emotions are a powerful tool to inflict suffering upon yourself. It is
important to observe why you believe you should suffer and why you do not believe yourself to be worthy of experiencing,
feeling and acknowledging yourself as love. It is important to realise what suffering is, it can be a fear, a negative thought, a
feeling of sadness, it is important to explore aspects of your own suffering especially emotionally.
The sweetness of life is to experience life in a state of bliss, peace and love; this can be achieved and maintained with ease
if it is your choosing. Reminding yourself of the love of your being allows you to step away from suffering and realise that your
life is sweet already and you are deserving to enjoy every moment of your life and reality upon the Earth.
With appreciation and love,
Archangel Metatron
