UPDATED Spiritual reading: optimism based on the truth; quiet miracles

Spread the love

December 3
Reach for the stillness, dear ones. Everything you need is there. The answers are easy to discern and the energies simple to find when you put yourself in a place of quiet and calm. This is but a gentle reminder of what you already know.

You will likely have much to do over the course of the next week, and on the surface things may look quite hectic or frenetic. This is ok. This is just the way it is sometimes, but know this: it means nothing, unless you yourself assign meaning to the extra activity. However, this will not be helpful, for it is not true.

Step back and inward, into the secret garden nestled in the center of your being. Allow yourself the respite of time there as often as you can. This is where reality lies and you really need to be in touch with it at the moment.

The stuff that goes on around you, the stuff in which you engage: it is superfcial, particularly at this time, and will drag you from that which has the capacity to guide and fulfill you if you let it.

Our message to you today is both simple and straightforward. You know how to fnd that place within, and you know how to touch into that which is both eternal and utterly safe. Every one of you has a way to do this and has practiced it from time to time. But sometimes the allure (which often comes disguised as fear—take care not to be seduced by fear) of all that action outside draws you away from the stillness and the vastness that lies within. Draws you away from the sweet, sweet beauty of being in communion with your own divinity.

In humble surrender, in allowing yourself to be nothing and to do nothing, however briefly, you can find all that you ever needed and so much more.

Please don’t let yourself be distracted overmuch today. Make that communion your highest priority, even if your mind and body are busy running about doing worldly things. This, as you are aware, is a great part of your charge: to learn and to live in the deep truth while simultaneously taking care of the business that is necessitated by being in form.

Take the challenge up with gusto. Commit to remembering that which you know, and to creating the time and space for that which sustains you, even when the world makes it inconvenient.

*** What DO we “know”?

If you bothered to read my essays, you know that reincarnation is real.

PROVEN.

…..Reincarnation facts

….

 

Why? Because we are eternal souls.

Something which also NDEs prove, Near-Death Experiences.

People literally come back from the other side after 10, 20, 30 or 40 minutes of being dead, as in no breathing, no brain waves and no heartbeat.

AND a higher world is also proved by the supernatural experiences which so many of us have (but are afraid to admit we had except, maybe, to certain very trusted friends who are open to the possibility that there is a higher world).

….Street lights flickering off

In the early 1980s Margi, in Washington DC, knew a man named Don Goodyear (like the name of the tire company).

He fell in love with her,

..and also, unbeknownst to Margi, he embezzled money from his bank! He then did years in prison, but was released by the governor of Virginia for good behavior and since his crime had not been violent.

Don had many regrets in life, one of them the embezzlement and prison, but also that his surviving kids had cut off all ties to him and would not even visit him when he was dying in Baltimore, Maryland — although they lived in northern Virginia, less than an hour away. 🙁

One of his children preceded him in death, however. She had been sick and was a Type-One diabetic.

Don told Margi as he was dying that when he used to walk home from work, just before he got to his apartment — and this happened several times — the street lights would go off, one by one, as he approached and then walked under them.

Then they would come back on, and the next street light would go off.

After this jarring sequence happened several times, he felt it was a sign. “I need to visit my daughter’s grave.” So he did. He felt much better.

And I guess so did she; the flickering of the street lights stopped. It never happened again.

In Eben Alexander MD’s book here, he talks about how souls can fairly easily turn electronics off and on, much more easily than they can heavy objects.

….Seasons in the Sun 

Here was an experience I had at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota as Margi was successfully fighting her throat cancer.

From:

BOTH Margi’s Mayo doctors just gave her two thumbs up! 🙂 I interview Margi; this is our FINAL cancer fundraiser!

 

A lady from Wyoming got no treatment at all [from her mediocre local hospital in that state] for her lung cancer for TWO MONTHS, was not told what kind of lung cancer it was, then was told mistakenly it had spread to both lungs (metastacized) when it had not (throwing her into a panic, of course) — and then she was sloppily given only half the dose of chemo which her oncologist had prescribed.

“Ooops”……..yeah, oops.

So sorry you DIED..………..

Her son was outraged, and called her the next day.

 “Mom, you can pack your bags. Here is your patient number, xx-xxx-xxx, at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. They will see you there tomorrow! I am taking you tonight to the airport!”

“Thank God I have a bossy son,” she said to me. “The Mayo has been wonderful. 🙂 ”

This woman, a sweet lady with a nice German face (strong jaw, like Margi, whose ancestors were “Hochstetters”), was fascinated by what I said about Near-Death Experiences, and asked if she could tell me a story that had happened to her.

She had just completed this jigsaw puzzle in the cybercafé community room, and, flush with a sense of accomplishment, she was resolved to tell me something…

She said:

“John, I have never told anyone this story except my closest relatives, before now.

I was nine years old, and my uncle, my favorite uncle, who was 21, committed suicide. We were strict Mormons, and he had gotten some girl pregnant.

He was such a nice person, always so kind to everyone. But I guess he could not live with the shame.

He shot himself with a shotgun in his bedroom. And others in the family were at home, and heard the shot.

That day he had picked the lock on the fridge and given all us little cousins some popsickles.

We went home after the popsickles, and it was that evening …that he shot himself, my uncle.

And he had played that song about suicide all afternoon long “Seasons in rhe Sun” ….

We came by the house the next day and the police had been there, and everything had been, you know, cleaned up.

And one of the adults told us kids that Jeremy had died suddenly.

Then I saw Jeremy just standing there next to the adult who was talking to us kids.”

(Me) “How did he look? Like a flat image? A 3-D, like a hologram? A dream?”

(She) “Just like in his regular body, solid, but, still, you could slightly see through him.”

(Me) “What was the expression like on his face? I mean, it was a sin in the Mormon faith (and in most Christian faiths) to kill yourself, and especially over merely having fathered a baby. Maybe it was ‘fornication’ or ‘sex before marriage,’ but that was no reason to end his life!”

(She) “He had no expression really…. just looking at us kids.”

(Me) “Did he see you looking at him?”

(She) “No, he was looking from child to child, and he did not see that I saw him.”

Beautiful scene from “Ghost:

 

The coming faith is built on real-people experiences just like this which show that life does go on after the body you wore, like some glove over your hand, is pulled off.

This leads me to something that actor Jack Nicholson said, who starred in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining.

I was researching whether the Jew Kubrick actually said this.

Kubrick DID say this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_and_religious_beliefs_of_Stanley_Kubrick

Excerpts:

In his memoir of Kubrick, Michael Herr, his friend and co-writer of the screenplay for Full Metal Jacket (1987), wrote:

Stanley had views on everything, but I would not exactly call them political… His views on democracy were those of most people I know, neither left nor right, not exactly brimming with belief, a noble failed experiment along our evolutionary way, brought low by base instincts, money and self-interest and stupidity… He thought the best system might be under a benign despot [….]

[….]

Frederic Raphael, who co-authored the Eyes Wide Shut script with Kubrick, says that the director once remarked that “Hitler was right about almost everything”, and insisted that any trace of Jewishness be expunged from the Eyes Wide Shut script.

Kubrick’s supposed relationship to his own ethnicity deeply troubled Raphael, a fellow Jew.

Raphael was further puzzled over Kubrick’s cryptic praise for Hitler, unable to decide if Kubrick was jesting.

Raphael was equally puzzled by Kubrick’s trashing of Schindler’s List.
[….]

Kubrick commented regarding A Clockwork Orange:

Man isn’t a noble savage, he’s an ignoble savage. He is irrational, brutal, weak, silly, unable to be objective about anything where his own interests are involved—that about sums it up.

I’m interested in the brutal and violent nature of man because it’s a true picture of him.

And any attempt to create social institutions on a false view of the nature of man is probably doomed to failure.

And here I come to the Jack Nicholson quote.

In Stanley Kubrick: A Life in PicturesJack Nicholson recalls that Kubrick said The Shining is,  overall, an optimistic story [in a good sense, as in a realistic hope] because

“anything that says there’s anything after death is ultimately an optimistic story.”

The new faith will be based on truth.

On the hope and change which Obama promised and never delivered, the “hope and change” and the deliverance that our suffering people crave.

***

More and more, clearer and clearer, the call is going out to all of you to come home. To rest when you can in the pure and untainted vibration of love that arises of its own accord out of the tillness. Many of you feel the pull, the longing, the resonance. So do what you must, but whatever you do, heed the call of the great heart and allow yourself, with much love and compassion, to know the exquisite beauty and peace of your own eternal nature.

We send you love and many, many blessings. The blessings are everywhere, dear ones—within and without. Everywhere. Look for them (sometimes they come in unexpected guise) and open your arms.

The joy and peace are yours if you will but consent to receive them. (E. West)
