Soul Age - the process of Soul Evolution

THE SOUL AGES

http://www.michaelteachings.com/soul_ages.html 

Michael affirms what we've suspected; life is indeed a learning game. He then describes the structure and rules of this game, making note of patterns which are much too large to be perceived easily while in a human body, living in their midst.

To begin the game, sparks of light and consciousness (that's us) who are attracted to experience on the earth plane cast themselves out from the Tao or God--the birthplace of all souls--and merge into a family of consciousness that includes about 1000 individual fragments or essences. This is the group Michael calls an entity. Seven entities are loosely bound together in a larger group called a cadre.

Each spark of consciousness first checks out a prospective planet in what Michael calls devic form. A deva is an intelligent energy being, without a body, who tends, and blends in with, nature. If, after gaining experience of the planet in a devic state, the entire cadre is in agreement to begin physical life, each fragment must slow its energy down to become solid and start the process of incarnating on the Physical Plane.

All the individual essences will have dozens upon dozens of lifetimes and gather up incredible amounts of experience which will be shared, to the core, with the entire entity. When all members have completed the whole growth and experience cycle on earth, each entity again merges back into one very intimate consciousness. Each fragment will then share in the experience, feelings and knowledge of all the others.

Thus, the individual essences in the entity gradually start incarnating, over many hundreds of years, onto the earth as individual human beings. The first essences to jump into earth lifetimes tend to be the most brash and brave of individuals in their following lives too; and the last ones, some of the most thoughtful.

Before taking a body each lifetime, every essence determines for itself, perhaps carefully, perhaps not, which culture, which parents, what the body type and sex will be and what the personality will be like. Individuals generally choose to put themselves in the vicinity of their entity mates in order to have these familiar and comfortable other parts of themselves available for relationships.

Each physical plane existence changes and deepens the essence's point of view. The structure is to go through the developmental levels Michael calls Infant, Baby, Young, Mature, and Old Soul levels. Each will take a minimum of seven lifetimes, more likely around twenty. After that there are six other planes of existence to grow through, and then it's back to the oneness of the Tao. This is an extraordinarily long "game" we are talking about, at least from our earthly perspective.

Soul age refers to how a person has grown from experience on the planet, not just to how many lifetimes he or she has lived.

No person, essence or entity is "ahead" or "behind" any other, but is simply occupying another place in the continuous circle leading to and from the Tao.

Ways of being are supposed to be different in different developmental stages; at some point we experience it all, moving continually along to different levels of understanding and responsibility. Michael always emphasizes that while each stage is unique and manifestly distinct from the others, no one place is better or worse than any other; they all belong in this game we have chosen to play.

The 3 Horses - a message from Kryon

Dear all, 

this is the transcript of "The multi-dimensional human" message that Kryon delivered on October 24, 2010 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The message starts with a clarification about the karmic system, then Kryon talks about our ability to Ascend, same way that Elijah did in the Bible story. In the end it is a call for unity, love and compassion, for all people around the world, especially during these transformation times. Listening to it I was deeply moved. I took the time to transcribe it as I believe everyone should read it and try to implement this profound knowledge in their lives... 

"Greetings Dear Ones, I am Kryon of Magnetic service.

I am always aware of where I am, I am aware of the souls that are here. If it is true that the Creator is inside you and I am part of the creative energy, I know who you are. I know the issues that you face. I know why you’ve come. Some have come just to enjoy the energy and some have come with profound sorrow. Some have come with problems that they think are unsolvable. And I know them all. Sometimes you sit and ponder life, do you not, and you wonder what is all about. Why would this happen to me, to my family? And you ask yourself truly, 'is it worth it?', 'what is life about?', and in these lessons in these days we wanted to give you an overview.
It is not about what happens to you, it truly is what you do with it. As if the events around you push various buttons that say: how are you going to deal with this, how are you going to deal with that.
There was an old system, for we again speak of system -the system of the human being of the planet earth. and it required that the human be put in test situations. And almost all of you are, and that has a name and it is called karma. Twenty one years ago I spoke to you and I said there is a new energy on this planet and the energy voids karma. Meaning the very system of humanity on Earth is changing. Karma is developed in order to put lessons in front of human. These lessons then generate a vibrational change on the planet depending on how they are dealt with . Many times karma is put in front of you with family and you have a chance to learn its lessons or not, and then it may happen again. All of this old system, is as if you were riding in a boat and you never knew where it was going. And somehow it would steer into dangerous waters, anxiety, drama, and it is how you deal with it, that changes the planet. It does not empower the human, but it is the oldest esoteric system on Earth and the ancients spoke of it. We said twenty one years ago that it is over for those who wish it to be. It is true karma is still here but the human being has now the ability to step out of it, to reach and take the tiller of the boat and steer the boat into calm waters. The reason is that the energy of you today on this planet empowers you to steer your own course .Because you will be far more successful in raising the planets vibration with the wisdom that you now have that has been given to you over the last generation. Many of you are beginning to realize it and to use it and it is maybe the simplest change there is .
And now I am going to give you a complexity, show you the mastery within, the esoterics of who you are. I love to reveal a beautiful system for you, that shows you why you were in the boat steering it yourself. How do I begin?

Oh human being, God loves you! As you sit there, God loves you!

We want you to leave differently than you came, to hear us clearly, we want you to participate in the energy of discovery. There are some things you cannot change around you, but if you will change yourself you will watch those things change. It is an interesting system. Where the more that you are able to claim the mastery within you, the more things around you shift. Why would that be? Because you are steering the boat. Because you are in charge of your own life.
Let us begin by revealing something about yourself . In that which is your reality, you are very singular. There is around you a feeling that everything on Earth is one item, starting with your own body. There is one body, one life, one soul, one God , one truth, one reality. This is the singular bias that the human being has of themselves. There can only be one of you since you’re only on one track of reality that goes from the past to the future. When you look in the mirror you see one face. This is a tridimensional reality. And it hides everything you are. Could it be that there is more? Could it be that there is more around you that you can see, that perhaps you’ve had help, could it be that you are bigger than you think? But you can’t see it in the mirror.
I see the old soul, I see the wisdom of you, I see the reason you’re here. I was with you before you came, in your time, moments before you decided to come back to the Earth, I looked at you and said "are you ready to do this yet again?", and I remember what you said. Each said something different. You had control of the elements, beautiful colors makeup the speech, music was everywhere, music you remember. And you said to me: "I would not miss this time, this is when the Earth is going to shift, this is what I’ve been waiting for". And I said "You’ve been here so many times,why would you now go back?" And you said "My family is there, I would not miss this". And this is the truth, old soul. You’ve been here so many times, your wisdom is so great but you don’t know it. The invitation this day is to see the mastery inside and start understanding who you are. In the process you will change your life , the things around you will change. and you will start to gain more joy, you will start waking up joyful.

I’m going to take you back to a Bible story, it is a true one, recorded in your Old Testament, the Hebrew testament and I’m going to take you on a journey. It’s a story  about the prophet Elijah, the Hebrew prophet. (Kings 2, in the Catholic and Protestant Bible versions). Indeed he was a master and very wise one. And he knew God. I’m going to show you his ascension, as it happened then. 

Elijah told those around him "I’m going to ascend, I’m going home, it is time". And the master he was knew how. When the time was up, he wished to cross the veil without death. Around him he had many wise people. Elisha wanted to be like him, to have his wisdom, the wisdom of the master. He asked Elijah if he would pass this to him, the profound work of the prophet. Elijah agreed and said " Record my ascension, tell everyone what you see", as he knew what was going to happen. "I want you to be here with me, I want you to see a human being ascend. Follow this with me". Elijah said "goodbye, it is time". You could feel the sacredness of what was going to happen, Elijah walked into the field and what happened next has been written for you to see. All that happened was multidimensional. And so the only thing that Elisha could report was what he could see in 3d. Elisha was wise, and he knew that he could only see that which was seeable. But there was more. And so he was watching for the metaphors that might occur. He knew he had to record it with his eyes and write it down the best he could. That’s when the lights started. It was beautiful! Elijah was turning into light.
And now dear human being I want you to know something. There was no chariot from the sky that came to get Elijah. God did not come and 'fetch' the master. Instead the master turned into a piece of God. Right where he stood, the light intensified so that Elisha could almost not keep his eyes open, colors were beautiful, there was no sound, and that made it seem even more mystical. Such power was there, it looked like his master was on fire , the light took him to his knees, and thru the tears of his sorrow he watched his master ascend. That’s when he saw it. He saw Three white horses appear around the light, and the light almost split into 3 parts, and his master seeming to ride on the light. Elisha knew there were no horses in the light and in the sky and so he knew it was a metaphor, just for him.
Now I want to tell you what happened. I will give you point by point the system of the human being.

Dear human, this is going to be difficult for you to understand, but you are no different from Elijah. You may not have opened the door and the portal that is there, you maybe are not a wise prophet, but everything that Elijah had, you do. How much of it you use is your choice. How much of that light is in your life is your choice. But you carry the potential of everything that Elisha saw.
Elisha named the energy of Elijah’s chariot, he gave it a Hebrew name that you know even today, a word that in Hebrew means to ride, a sacred ride it was, he gave a name to the energy of the light that was around Elijah. A light that went out 8 meters from his body, and seemed to shine like the sun. And he called it the merkaba. And each of you have it. I look into this audience, and I see the lights of all of you, when you’re sitting next to a person, and your merkaba goes 8 meters out, who else is your consciousness touching, family ? Do you realize your influence? And if you’ve never activated anything that is sacred in you, it does nothing. But if you’ve opened this door, shaman, to let the light in your life, you are the healer you think you are . And everywhere you walk GOD knows you, but so does Gaia. Every footprint is known, for you are seeding the earth with light. This is the potential of every human.  I am going to pull apart the 3 basic sacred elements of the system of humanity: the 3 white horses are the 3 multidimensional parts of every human ,just like Elijah.

1) Number One, the largest one that you carry with you , that you would call a piece of the Creator, has been named as the Higher Self. The Higher Self is inside you, it is not in the sky and it is not higher than you are. It vibrates higher than you do, therefore it is the high-er self. This part of you is your core soul sacredness, and most of the world is not aware of it. Most of the humans walking around have no idea of it, and it sits quietly, and it can do nothing without the human asking. Human being , free choice is everything. The human can’t steer their own boat without asking, opening the door, giving intent. It does not happen automatically. It is honoring the free choice of the human. That’s the largest horse, it’s beautiful, a piece of creation itself, everyone of you has it, it is not another entity, it is the core of you. There are so many humans who say they are afraid to open that door, because they don’t know what is going to happen. But my partner (Lee Caroll, the channeler) told you what happened 21 years ago when he opened the door.He said just a few words: "If you’re there, show me". And we did. And in those moments, I did nothing. He met his Higher Self, and it scared him. For he felt for a moment his sole connection with the Universe. And the most incredible love he has ever known. That is the higher self. And he had to meet that before I was ever able to come in, and that is the system , in touch with that which is elemental and you. In touch with the core soul energy of the Creator and of life. And that’s what you meet first, that’s how you learn how to love yourself first. Its the only way you can learn how to work in a quantum way. The higher self starts to teach you. It is you. Could there be anything more beautiful ? That at some level you meet yourself? It’s a beautiful system.

2) The second horse. Is difficult to explain, for now we become quantum. Coming in with you is a seemingly soul split , it is what you would call guides, and when you say "my angels" ,that which you feel around you, which seems to be helping you, is actually you. Eight meters around you, is your energy field. And that’s where they are. And it seems like they are other entities to you, because you are singular. Your reality says you only have one piece of you, your body. Therefore when you sense others around you, it has to be entities, doesn’t it? Has to be your helpers, your guides, your angels, some of you give them names, that’s all appropriate, but here is the truth: they are you. They are the second white horse. They come in with you, they are part of you and they are also part of that which is your core soul energy.
Notice how many parts that are esoteric we’re telling you about. Three. Have you seen the 3 lately? The 3 is the catalytic number , watch for it , for it tells you things are changing. The second horse is represented by that guide-set which is around you- what do they do? First of all they are you. They know you very well, they know how to help you, they know you better than anyone. But they sit there and they do nothing, until you activate them. My partner sat in the chair and when he said the words "Alright who are you, come in", the guide-set applauded. They saw the potentials. They saw what might happen ,they saw him asking permission to see them. The emotion was overwhelming for him, not only did he meet his Higher Self, but he had a choir of his own angels singing songs. No wonder he slammed the door, it was frightening (especially for an engineer.)
This is different for everyone. Some of you have opened the door, some of you’ve done it gradually, some of you were aware at birth you would do this , some of you have walked with these angels of yours all of your life. It brings you here today. I know who is here: the healers, the channelers, those who write the books, all of you are helping humanity, all of you have the door open for you, remember my partner went from zero to everything all at once and it was traumatic for him. We didn’t show him the third piece, until 6 years ago, and the third piece is the hardest one to explain. These 3 pieces have been identified by almost every religion on the planet. For all those in high spiritual places feel the three. Prophets and masters who’ve walked the Earth have labeled them and they all have different names, in this culture they are known as the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
3) From those 3 the hardest one to explain is the Holy Spirit. What is it? Well, it is a spirit of holiness. What is it? Not the Higher Self, not the angels around you, but it’s a helpful energy that seems to represent everything. Is it possible that part of you is everywhere? The answer is Yes. Difficult to explain. But you are in a quantum state with everything. This allows for the synchronicity that some of you count on. You call it conscious creation. A co-creative human being knows something is going to happen, has no detail about it (what, when, where) but plans for it. You are in tune quantumly with everything. This is a human being who is not in 3d, who can think out of that structure and put themselves in a place of absolute knowing. The answers will occur when they are supposed to , I don’t know when, I have no idea what they will be, or when they will occur, but I’m counting on it, therefore I will plan for it. And because they represent solutions in my life , I am peaceful. Because I know it’s on the way, because I know it’s coming, there is no drama in my life about it. Have you met those like that?
Look at the face of the Christ. Did He know his future? And did you see it on His face? NO. What did you see on His face? The joy of God. The animals who followed Him around knew it, the Earth knew it as every footstep was taken. He said: "I am the son of God, and so are you" . He said that. He wanted you to know that everything He represented on the planet is available to you, right now. That was the message. 

Those are the 3 horses. Difficult to explain. How would you begin to implement this information now? Is it too complex, what’s next to you? This is the information I give you for 21 years. Sit down in the chair and with pure intent and full surrender say “Dear God, I am ready to start opening this door, take my hand and slowly show me the way". And then trust your first intuition, the hardest thing the human does, you have an intuition about something and immediately you throw it away and later you say "I knew that would happen", so why didn't you believe it? Because it comes from you, and humans are taught that they are nothing, that they are born dirty, they don’t have the wisdom of God and to throw away those things which are good. Trust your intuition. It is the best way your angels have of talking to you. Those pieces and parts of yourself that reside in your merkaba, communicate through intuition. Start to trust it. It is like a muscle in the body that is quantum. The more you trust it the more it reveals itself, you get better at it and better at it, pretty soon you’ll live by it. I just gave you the secret: pure intent, full surrender, trusting your intuition, practice. And these things will start a journey, it’s got to be pure, it’s got to be something that you do because you are involved in it, not something you try, like a new program of exercise. It’s got to be complete with every cell of your body. 

Now finally I give you this: Old soul, you are here for a reason.
Maybe everything I’ve said you already know and this is only a time for reminder. The shift is upon you, it is moving to South America. It’s a time to put things together not tear them apart. It’s a time for unification. Is there someone you don’t like? Is there someone you won’t work with? Is that unity?! They’re family. Can you look at them and learn to love them no matter what has happened between you.
If you can, you are one who is gluing together that which needs to be glued. If you continue to walk the other way, you’re tearing things apart. It is time for family to unify. Recognize the light in the others around you, throw away the differences of how you might perceive, of what you think they are doing to you or you to them, and see them as brothers and sisters. Take their hand and look in their eyes, and say to them "I forgive you, can you forgive me, so we can work together?" It doesn’t mean you have to have a business together, just means you have to acknowledge that you are both children of God and you have a right to work and saw your own seeds of light on the Planet, and you agree to do it with one love, compassion and consciousness. It is about maturing and it is time, and the energy that is moving here will promote this. Be part of it, it is why you were born now, it is why you are here now, hearing this, and some of you are so ready! This is the message you need : unify, glue together, collide, this is the message of the day, the only message.
What are you going to do with this? When you go home today, is this going to seem just a meeting? This is my advice, go home and implement this. When you are alone, take that time you need, sit in a place alone and say "Is this really true?", start using your intuitive power, start asking yourself "Can this really be, what can I do Kryon, Higher Self ,are you there? Help me in these things!"
Trust your intuition, go slowly with compassion. This is going to make a difference. Slowly you may start going with other people, meeting together, even with those you might not have met before, because you didn’t like what they were doing. Learn to trust family. And become compassionate. Implement what you’ve learned today. You are the old souls of the planet who are going to awaken the mastery that is yours to awaken.(...)

And so it is."

Bless the water at Fukushima -message from Masaru Emoto

To All People Around the World

Please send your prayers of love and gratitude to water at the nuclear plants in Fukushima, Japan!

By the massive earthquakes of Magnitude 9 and surreal massive tsunamis, more than 10,000 people are still missing…even now… It has been 16 days already since the disaster happened. What makes it worse is that water at the reactors of Fukushima Nuclear Plants started to leak, and it’s contaminating the ocean, air and water molecule of surrounding areas.

Human wisdom has not been able to do much to solve the problem, but we are only trying to cool down the anger of radioactive materials in the reactors by discharging water to them.

Is there really nothing else to do? I think there is. During over twenty year research of hado measuring and water crystal photographic technology, I have been witnessing that water can turn positive when it receives pure vibration of human prayer no matter how far away it is.

Energy formula of Albert Einstein, E=MC2 really means that Energy = number of people and the square of people’s consciousness.

Now is the time to understand the true meaning. Let us all join the prayer ceremony as fellow citizens of the planet earth. I would like to ask all people, not just in Japan, but all around the world to please help us to find a way out the crisis of this planet!!

The prayer procedure is as follows.

Name of ceremony:

“Let’s send our thoughts of love and gratitude to all water in the nuclear plants in Fukushima”

Day and Time:

March 31st, 2011 (Thursday)

12:00 noon in each time zone

Please say the following phrase:

“Water of Fukushima Nuclear Plant,

we are sorry to make you suffer.

Please forgive us. We thank you, and we love you.”

Please say it aloud or in your mind. Repeat it three times as you put your hands together in a prayer position. Please offer your sincere prayer.

Thank you very much from my heart.

With love and gratitude,

Masaru Emoto

A man found an eagle's egg and put it in a nest of a barnyard hen. The eagle hatched with the brood of chicks and grew up with them. All his life the eagle did what the barnyard chicks did, thinking he was a barnyard chicken. He scratched the earth for worms and insects. He clucked and cackled. And he would thrash his wings and fly a few feet into the air. Years passed and the eagle grew very old. One day he saw a magnificent bird above him in the cloudless sky. It glided in graceful majesty among the powerful wind currents, with scarcely a beat of its strong golden wings. The old eagle looked up in awe. "Who's that?" he asked. "That's the eagle, the king of the birds," said his neighbor. "He belongs to the sky. We belong to the earth--we're chickens." So the eagle lived and died a chicken, for that's what he thought he was.

Spirituality means waking up. Most people, even though they don’t know it, are asleep. They’re born asleep, they live asleep, they marry in their sleep, they breed children in their sleep, they die in their sleep without ever waking up. They never understand the loveliness and the beauty of this thing that we call human existence. You know ~ all mystics ~ Catholic, Christian, non-Christian, no matter what their theology, no matter what their religion ~ are unanimous on one thing: that all is well, all is well. Thought everything is a mess, all is well.

Strange paradox, to be sure. But, tragically, most people never get to see that all is well because they are asleep. They are having a nightmare.

I heard a story about this gentleman who knocks on his son’s door. "Jaime," he says, "wake up!" Jaime answers, "I don’t want to get up, Papa." The father shouts, "Get up, you have to go to school." Jaime says, "I don’t want to go to school." "Why not?" asks the father. "Three reasons," says Jaime. First, because it’s so dull; second, the kids tease me; and third, I hate school. And the father says, "Well, I am going to give you three reasons why you must go to school. First, because it is your duty; second, because you are forty-five years old, and third, because you are the headmaster." Wake up! Wake up! You’ve grown up. You’re too big to be asleep. Wake up! Stop playing with your toys.

Most people tell you they want to get out of kindergarten, but don’t believe them. Don’t believe them! All they want you to do is to mend their broken toys. "Give me back my wife. Give me back my job. Give me back my money. Give me back my reputation, my success." This is what they want; they want their toys replaced. That’s all. Even the best psychologist will tell you that, that people don’t really want to be cured. What they want is relief; a cure is painful.

Waking up is unpleasant, you know. You are nice and comfortable in bed. It is irritating to be woken up. That’s the reason the wise guru will not attempt to wake people up. I hope I’m going to be wise here and make no attempt whatsoever to wake you up if you are asleep. It is really none of my business, even though I say to you at times, "Wake up!" My business is to do my thing, to dance my dance. If you profit from it fine; if you don’t, too bad! As the Arabs say, "The nature of rain is the same, but it makes thorns grow in the marshes and flowers in the gardens."

"There's nothing so delightful as being aware. Would you rather live in darkness? Would you rather act and not be aware of your actions, talk and not be aware of your words? Would you rather listen to people and not be aware of what you're hearing, or see things and not be aware of what you're looking at? the great Socrates said, "The unaware life is not worth living." That's a self-evident truth.

Most people don't live aware lives. They live mechanical lives, mechanical thoughts--generally somebody else's--mechanical emotions, mechanical actions, mechanical reactions. Do you want to see how mechanical you really are? "My, that's a lovely shirt you're wearing." You feel good hearing that. For a shirt, for heaven's sake! You feel proud of yourself when you hear that. People come over to my center in India and they say, "What a lovely place, these lovely trees" (for which I'm not responsible at all), "this lovely climate." And already I'm feeling good, until I catch myself feeling good, and I say, "Hey, can you imagine anything as stupid as that?" I'm not responsible for those trees; I wasn't responsible for choosing the location. I didn't order the weather; it just happened. But "me" got in there, so I'm feeling good. I'm feeling good about "my" culture and "my" nation. How stupid can you get? I mean that.

I'm told my great Indian culture has produced all these mystics. I didn't produce them. I'm not responsible for them. Or they tell me, "That country of yours and its poverty--it's disgusting." I feel ashamed. But I didn't create it. What's going on? Did you ever stop to think? People tell you, "I think you're very charming," so I feel wonderful. I get a positive stroke (that's why they call it I'm O.K., you're O.K.). I'm going to write a book someday and the title will be I'm an Ass, You're an Ass. That's the most liberating, wonderful thing in the world, when you openly admit you're an ass. It's wonderful. When people tell me, "You're wrong." I say, "What can you expect of an ass?"

Disarmed, everybody has to be disarmed. In the final liberation, I'm an ass, you're an ass. Normally the way it goes, I press a button and you're up; I press another button and you're down. And you like that. How many people do you know who are unaffected by praise or blame? That isn't human, we say. Human means that you have to be a little monkey, so everybody can twist your tail, and you do whatever you ought to be doing. But is that human? If you find me charming, it means that right now you're in a good mood, nothing more.

It also means that I fit your shopping list. We all carry a shopping list around, and it's as though you've got to measure up to this list--tall, um, dark, um, handsome, according to my tastes. "I like the sound of his voice." You say, "I'm in love." You're not in love, you silly ass. Any time you're in love-- I hesitate to say this--you're being particularly asinine. Sit down an watch what's happening to you. You're running away from yourself. You want to escape. Somebody once said, "Thank God for reality, and for the means to escape from it." So that's what's going on. We are so mechanical, so controlled. We write books about being controlled and how wonderful it is to be controlled and how necessary it is that people tell you you're O.K. Then you'll have a good feeling about yourself. How wonderful it is to be in prison! Or as somebody said to me yesterday, to be in your cage. Do you like being in prison? Do you like being controlled? Let me tell you something: If you ever let yourself feel good when people tell you that you're O.K., you are preparing yourself to feel bad when they tell you you're not good. As long as you live to fulfill other people's expectations, you better watch what you wear, how you comb your hair, whether your shoes are polished--in short, whether you live up to every damned expectation of theirs. Do you call that human?"

Where’s the Fire?
There was a man who invented the art of making fire. He took his tools and went to a tribe in the north, where it was very cold, bitterly cold. He taught the people there to make fire. The people were very interested. He showed them the uses to which they could put fire: they could cook, could keep themselves warm, etc. They were so grateful that they had learned the art of making fire. But before they could express their gratitude to the man, he disappeared. He wasn’t concerned with getting their recognition or gratitude; he was concerned about their well-being. He went to another tribe, where he again began to show them the value of his invention. People were interested there too, a bit too interested for the peace of mind of their priests, who began to notice that this man was drawing crowds and they were losing their popularity. So they decided to do away with him. They poisoned him, crucified him, put it any way you like. But they were afraid now that the people might turn against them, so they were very wise, even wily. Do you know what they did? They had a portrait of the man made and mounted it on the main altar of the temple. The instruments for making fire were placed in front of the portrait, and the people were taught to revere the portrait and to pay reverence to the instruments of fire, which they dutifully did for centuries. The veneration and the worship went on, but there was no fire.

Where’s the fire? Where’s the love? Where’s the freedom? This is what spirituality is all about. Tragically, we tend to lose sight of this, don’t we? This is what Jesus Christ is all about. But we overemphasized the “Lord, Lord,” didn’t we? Where’s the fire? And if worship isn’t leading to the fire, if adoration isn’t leading to love, if the liturgy isn’t leading to a clearer perception of reality, if God isn’t leading to life, of what use is religion except to create more division, more fanaticism, more antagonism? It is not from lack of religion in the ordinary sense of the word that the world is suffering, it is from lack of love, lack of awareness. And love is generated through awareness and through no other way, no other way. Understand the obstructions you are putting in the way of love, freedom, and happiness and they will drop. Turn on the light of awareness and the darkness will disappear.

Fire the Grid meditation 11.01.2011

Hi Everyone,

We will again gather to practice in focussing our intents for a new world next January 11th at 11:11 am. 
For those of you who can't at that time just choose another hour during the day putting the intent that it will be synchronized with the others because there is not really a time in the astral. Everyone can do this meditation in 
the comfort of their homes for the moment.

Find a relax position in a calm place. Ask your ancestors, your guardian angels or guides to assist you in your task. Take some deep cleansing breaths. Now imagine a beautiful landscape that makes you feel in love with our dear planet. As your heart fills with Love, imagine a golden ball forming in your heart chakra and send it to the heart centre of our Mother Earth. Wait for her response. You will feel her love. Bring it back to your heart. Imagine now Father Sky with all the stars, the suns, the galaxies, the vastness of Space above your head and send this love to either our Sun or to the Centre of the Galaxy. Wait for Father Sky's response to you. Feel his love for you and than send this wonderful love all around you, very far so it reaches places of the world in need. Visualize the Earth completely rejuvenated in her pristine state with humans living in Peace, Love, Harmony and Abundance for all. Say thank you and be grateful for this moment.

Namaste,

Annie
