Heavenletter #5050 Great Beauty and Kindness and Wisdom Will Blossom, September 22, 2014

God said:

What if it is really true that everything that happens, regardless of what it looks like to you or looks like to the whole world, is the right thing to happen? No matter how you are unable to see it, no matter how dire it all may look to you, there is truly good that will come from any and every event you presently protest.

Somewhere down the line, there will be unfolding of goodness from it. Sooner or later, good rises from a happening that you presently see as amply tragic.

Life is as you see it. That is, you get wound up or your get settled, depending upon how you perceive what is happening in life. You are the perceiver, and how you perceive makes all the difference in the world.

How you have been fooled. The truth is that souls in the Universe are brightened, and something in life is propelled magnificently in a direction from which great beauty and kindness and wisdom will blossom. Why not take this approach? What do you have to gain, and what do you have to lose?

My favorite expression lately is “Why not?” Why not be happy rather than sad? Why not get over quickly that which disturbs you? Why not be bright light rather than somber dimness? Why not give into higher feelings instead of lesser feelings when you can have and circulate higher feelings? Why not be all you can be instead of a fraction of the Truth of you? Why not be extraordinary rather than ordinary when, by doing so, you bless the world and yourself? Why not take the High Road? Look, anyone can wail and moan and groan. Who says you have to mourn, or that you are better to mourn a longer time rather than shorter? What if you could rebound quickly? Why not?

If you can frown, you can smile. Why not smile?

Why not think of getting on with life in the mode of a good sport? Why not be a good sport instead of a downtrodden figure? If you can sanction misery, why not sanction happiness? You have a whole repertoire at your disposal. Johnny-One-Note has the choice to sing more than one note, or, if he can sing only one note, he can sing a happy one, why not?

Who said that a realist must have a down-turned mouth? Who said that unhappiness is real, and happiness is not?

Must a realist require answers? Must a realist be peremptory? Must he be logical in life and allow life only a prescribed route? Cannot life have many options? Life can be as free as you, why not? Be done with labels and labeling so many events in life as maladies.

This is a talk on not being caught up so much with the ideas that the world-at-large holds up for everyone to follow. Presently suffering abounds in life. Where is it written that you have a ration of suffering and that you have to suffer? You don’t have to take life or death as seriously as you do. The world may say that you are to suffer, yet I tell you with emphasis that you are not to. There is no commandment that you are to suffer as you tend to believe you do.

On the contrary, it is My desire that you are to be happy no matter what befalls and no matter how you perceive it. Live with what the world hands to you. When the past cannot be changed, let it go. Do not begrudge the past. Do not hold anything against life. Rather accept life as it comes. This is what is best to do with the past.

Have the idea that in life, there are no oops. Oops is an idea. It is only an idea that something that happened wasn’t supposed to have happened. Have the idea that something plays out with a greater circumference and significance than you presently see. You don’t have to see it, but you do simply have to keep marching forward as a good soldier in life who keeps marching right along and takes what comes in his gallant stride.

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Research and Revelation.”

Received by Oscar.

Thought Adjuster: “Many of the ideas science of today has about the universe will eventually be proven to be incorrect. Most scientists believe in an ever-expanding universe, but those of you who have read the Epochal revelation know that this is not the case. One could ask, what is the purpose of scientific research if there will always be things that cannot successfully be explained by science?

“Science is very valuable to any civilization. Through exploration of the mysteries of the universe, and through curiosity to find out how things work, many useful discoveries have been made, improving the lives of human beings. Your progress from the times of the cavemen, to the many luxuries and advantages of modern life, have been possible thanks to scientific research.

“Here, clarification about the revelations in the Urantia papers is in order. What is therein described about the universe – as for most other ideas displayed in these documents – represent the highest ideas about truth that originated in the minds of human beings of this planet. Nothing that was not discovered by humanity has been revealed. Even the more advanced ideas about the origin of the universe were at one time contemplated by superior human minds of this world, and these ideas were preserved by the Guardians of Wisdom on Paradise.

“There are still many things to be discovered by the civilizations on this planet. The advancements in science, philosophy, and religion are always the heritage of a material sphere. Your achievements are forever yours, so rejoice in your progress and accept the responsibility of finding solutions to the problems you are facing today.

“Of course, you are not alone in these adventures. God, through the presence of the Thought Adjusters, and through myriad Teachers and helpers, is available to assist you in directing your ideas and efforts towards more productive endeavors with a higher change of success.

“The true teachers are not those who offer their students the solutions to their problems. A true teacher lets the student enjoy the satisfaction of his or her own discovery, plus the rewards of his or her efforts in discovering truth. Thus meanings and values become part of the person who discovers them, because they are the results of real experiences.”

Sivananda Daily Reading

WORK WORK WORK
Do not talk of vedanta and Brahman,
Work, work, work.
There is too much talk and vedantic gossiping,
Enough of tall talk and gossiping.
Give up lecturing and pedantry,
Become a practical vedantin.
Be good to others, even at the point of a bayonet.
Show your strength and courage now.
Develop a soft heart,
That can melt at the sufferings of others,
This will lead you to the realisation of unity.
I want fiery young men
Brave, dispassionate and wise,
With iron will and ferro-concrete body and nerves,
Who can pulverise the Himalayas,
Who can sip the waters of the ocean,
Who can devour death like a pickle,
Who can swim across the Pacific,
Who can uproot Mount Everest,
Who can swallow the ball of fire.
—Thus sayeth Sivananda.

TAKE A DOSE OF DIVINE DRUG
O Man! Take a dose of this mysterious drug.
The wonderful drug that grows within,
The drug that cures the disease of death
The drug of life, light and bliss,
The drug that bestows immortality.
The divine drug, the drug of grace,
The drug that makes you dance in joy,
The rarest drug that dispels the darkness,
The loveliest drug that is precious,
The only drug that removes grief,
The drug that kills the six passions,
The drug that makes you fearless,
The drug that puts you into samadhi.
It is the silent drug Bhumi, thy innermost Atman.
That is my strength, joy and cure-all,
That is the potential immortal elixir.
—Thus sayeth Sivananda.

Monday evening's Libra New Moon (taking place early to late evening, or early Tuesday morning, depending on time zone) is an interesting lunation, involving close aspects from Sun, Moon, Jupiter and Uranus to Chiron, the Wounded Healer, bringing our dark places closer to the surface of our conscious thoughts. This New Mooncontinues the theme of relating that we have seen so much in evidence in recent lunations. That is because theNew Moon is in Libra, the sign Venus rules, while Venus herself is coming close to conjunction with the Sun andMoon and is simultaneously aspected by Eris, the new planet beyond Pluto. This means that relationship is doubly accentuated right now, and with Chiron involved, the difficulties and the pitfalls of relationship also.

You are therefore enjoined to succeed somehow to find the deeper purpose of relationship in your life and in the process to find yourself as well. As you do you are leaning into manifest possibilities that will appear for you for discovering artistic passion and career fulfillment. Once you begin to more fully explore and believe in your own sense of yourself this forms the foundation for your life work, independent of other voices and the narrowness of consensus thinking. The goal is that you remain undeterred in spite of everything and embody your soul purpose going forward.

Mercury is also featured in this week's astrology because it is aspected by Jupiter and connected also to Venus by rulership. Mercury brings to our rational mental process the fruits of inspiration provided by Jupiter in trine withUranus, including their conceptual aspects with Chiron. We are constantly learning, especially as we continue to face the material represented by Chiron, symbolizing where we have been wounded and where we may yet heal. There are likely to be walled-off territories within each of us where hurt resides that is little understood, where ancient trauma has lodged, the residue of the unfortunate wounding experiences of early childhood. Our task is to refuse to shun these difficult parts of ourselves but instead to embrace them, to no longer run away to their opposite but to integrate them with our joyful selves, although this may be easier said than done. Relationship provides one more mirror for us, and is vital in helping to work through these difficult places inside.

The Sabian Symbol for the degree of this New Moon, in the second degree of Libra, tells an interesting side of this story. It is: "The light of the sixth race transmuted to the seventh," which many proponents proclaim as "The transmutation of the fruits of past experiences into the seed-realizations of the forever creative Spirit," with the keyword of Evolution. In this symbol there are definite correspondences to these times of radical change. We all must do what we can to further the transformative evolution of our society that is in process. The bottom line is that when we go inside and discover more about ourselves and our relationships in this way, we further the spiritual life that is stirring within each one of us, and in the society itself.
