Letter Eleven “After the End” (final installment)

As this first month of the new year and the new decade comes to an end it is my strong feeling that the genetic transmutation has begun to take shape among the various world societies. The reptilian consciousness that has been so prevalent throughout the life of homo sapiens is beginning to wane. We are more aware of these unconscious beings and the divide between the dense shadow world and the illumining light world is becoming wider. We are taking a stand against this malevolent force that is strangling our very existence.  In spite of the immense drawbacks facing our lives and our children’s lives we are fixed in our resolve to move forward through the storm to a new frontier of Divine exploration. The new generation coming to earth is showing signs of a more advanced awareness; a more loving, compassionate being, a being prepared for the shift to higher consciousness. And through the maze of destruction that keeps heaping upon our nations there are those Heroes that shine so clearly through the rubble.

“Now, given all you’ve related to me about the new species, I’m left feeling very strange. It’s like a mixture of hope and disappointment. It’s good that humanity provided an important steppingstone to enlightenment. On the other hand, it’s sad that we couldn’t get it together ourselves, that we couldn’t work it out our own way. It seems like we got so close.”

I understand. You may think me insensitive to say this again right now. But that sadness comes out of ego and attachment to form. Attachment was one of the reasons humanity could not work it out. Remember, time had expired. If you had had another million years or so, humanity might have put ego in its place, but the pressures of your age were too intense. Your attachment to possessions had not abated. At the root of it, you were possessed by a desire to make up for the lack something you couldn’t name. You could never find it, not even in your grandest achievements. Yet it was something so essential and vital that its lack undermined every success of your lives.

Letter Eleven “After the End” (3rd installment)

Can we define leadership in this present day world? Do we really have a clue what true leadership is all about after living years with such a muddled idea of the concept? We have become numb to it. We have lost the standard on which to base the value of greatness. It is not a moral standard that should be used as a value,  for the human concept of morality lacks the most important ingredient – Authenticity. When we can reach deeply within our soul for commitment to authenticity then we will have a new standard for living and value shall become a thing of the heart and great once more.

“…Another vision is coming. I’m seeing an old, old man… with long silver hair and dark skin. He’s sitting beside a fountain, in a garden. I can hear the splash of water. The woman I saw before is with me again. She’s laughing and talking. The words aren’t clear though. The old man is looking directly into my eyes, like he’s actually seeing me right now. His eyes are the most unusual color, a kind of maroon. They’re fierce. Those eyes are eating into me… I have to look away.”

What are you doing in this place?

“That’s what I want to know! You tell me.”

Stop… Feel your space. You will know the answer to my question. Let it come.

“Oh my God. Yes. I do know. It’s coming to me like I’ve been here before. I am here because this man is my… my brother? It doesn’t make any sense; he’s not my brother. Still, I’m getting that he and I belong together somehow. How can this be? He’s so old, so different from me. I’ve never seen this place before.

“The scene is shifting to a forest. The man is there with me, but he is no longer looking at me. He’s just sitting, very still at the base of a huge tree. Wait. Shifting again. Holy cow! I’m high above the Earth, floating in space. Now I’m falling down… down toward a vast forest. Falling, falling. Stop! I’ve had enough falling in these things! I’m pulling out of this vision.”

All right. I can’t say I blame you. Just sit for a moment and relax. You were much more in control in this one, my friend. That’s real progress. This is something we can definitely use.

“Use for what? What do you mean something we can use?”

I have an idea for you. But I can’t tell you about it yet.

“Why not? Why are you still keeping me in the dark?”

Letter Eleven “After the End” (2nd installment)

The world around us seems to be moving farther apart as we evolve through this incarnation. You would think that evolution would bring us closer together as a species; more harmony, more love and more compassion. On the contrary, it is moving to extreme ends of the spectrum. One is a fundamentalist attitude with a reptilian gut approach to life and the other is a transcendent consciousness which feels through the divine heart and sees through the enlightened mind. In between these two extremes lie the manipulations of self absorption. And through this tumultuous existence the fire of transformation is heating up. Now, in this crucial time, the fire brings life on this planet to a raging boil and the lid of civilization is about to blow. The result will be amazing. Read on:

“…Would you please give me some details? What happens to ordinary people during those decades? What happens when awakened ones encounter people who still had egos? Is there fighting in the streets, or what?”

The struggles occur primarily within the individual mind and soul, not in the streets. If it’s a fight you’re looking for, look within. You can feel it right now, I’m sure—the pressure to do something or be somebody, versus the quiet urge to be at peace and follow a truly authentic path. There are indeed times when people with full egos encounter those with empty ones.

What happens then is that the ego-full ones see before them an individual who is no threat. They see someone charming in a way they can’t describe, also simple and unassuming. They do not register anything about ego, however. The mind does not detect the absence of ego. Only the deeper awareness is sensitive enough for this. The encounter between ego and non-ego does not engender aggressive feelings among people; the confrontation only happens inside the individual psyche. There is no battle between the haves and have-nots in the outer world, as I think you’re imagining.

Those without egos can, however, detect those with egos. It is almost a visual perception. The old species has a dark and filmy shade or halo around them; it appears to be continually squeezing and contracting upon the person and his environment, closing down and hardening. The feelings of separateness in and around these people is clearly visible. It impacts all the senses. Recall your own answer to my question about your personal fear.

Letter Eleven “After the End” (1st installment)

Letter Eleven “After the End” is very auspicious at this moment; in our country and in our consciousness. The turbulence of transformation has begun and those who understand the sign posts will be conscious enough to weather the storm. Our great global civilization has reached the end of its life of egoic pride and selfish motivation. There is a new consciousness dawning that will leave the present species nothing more then a hard cover volume of history. We have served Source well up to this  point. With all the imaginings of a world bathed in love and harmony we just couldn’t get it right. Without the knowledge to understand and the will to create a new paradigm we eventually became lost in our own story. Perhaps after a couple of visits to “Avatar,” sitting alone to contemplate the possibility of one love, one heart and one mission, can we  finally understand how foolish we have behaved with the potential given us from the Source.

“I can’t argue with all the pain in the world today. But hasn’t there always been pain, injustice and cruelty? Is today any different really?”

Yes. Really. Just the sheer numbers of humans alone is enough to explain the increase in pain. However, there is a qualitative difference as well. More people are feeling more than ever; this is part of the movement of awareness. As these feelings of all kinds grow in intensity, so does the general awareness. Information in your time is expanding at unprecedented rates that stagger your mental capacities. It is all on the rise.

Finally, the pain is coming forward in greater abundance because it is being drawn out by the species’ ego. Ego is trying to rally its defenses through this tactic. However, it is unwittingly causing greater and faster awakening, as people are registering their pain in clearer ways. With clarity they are beginning to see through it more easily. All the darkness within is being exposed directly to the light.

“I don’t know. I’m not sure exposing the darkness to light is really working. I still see so much fear and stupidity all around—in politics and religion and entertainment. Everything is reaction and distraction!”

The Soul… and it’s Host – Letter Nine “Future Self”

If the consciousness that ignites us and animates our physical form is the primary divine living entity, then our physical form is acting as a host for this divine essence that is generated from the Source, the Godhead. It provides the host body with information that is key to the experience the host will have on the physical plane. However, veiled from the awareness of the ego-self it is relegated the position of a bystander until the time we become conscious of our oneness with all that is.

“But wait. Who are these people I keep seeing? What is this Void thing?”

You seem to be connecting with some of my friends, people who are working in the project. As for the Void, it is a field of awareness that both exists and does not exist, simultaneously. It is not a thing; yet it is a space. It is with us at all times, all around, inside and beyond. It is a field of great emptiness that blossoms forth into all creation in the Cosmos. It is where the Big Bang came from. It is timeless and formless.

more from…Letter Fourteen “Sides of Oneness”

Through the ages there have been wise men who have been able to transcend the suffering that humnkind has been experiencing for thousands of years. But these gurus, avatars, saints are few and far between. We have tried to transcend the maya or illusion that comes with our species separation from the Divine Light, but spirit  made a deal with Conscious Evolution to explore this separation, through ego, this go around and explore it we did.

And now the game must change for the salvation of spirit here on earth. Conscious Evolution has decided to change the playing field and bring in a new set of players. These players are our mutated selves. What we are to become next in the Cosmic Lila. This change can take place right now, right here. We just have to give the contestants a new set of tools to work with:

“…Must we always be stuck in this disconnect from spirit? Surely there’s some hope. I’ve experienced breakthroughs in my own life, at times. I have had experiences of my inner being, when I was more than just a body or a mind. I have felt that expanded awareness on a number of occasions. Doesn’t this indicate that we are not locked into the genetic structure you are depicting? Doesn’t it mean that we can get out of this predicament?”

Indeed you can. You do. The way is called mutation. The way to open yourselves to the awareness of innate oneness in creation, is to be created anew, from within. Your species does, in fact, make the big breakthrough. It does evolve itself into the state of knowing, of intuitively understanding where you are and where you come from. There is abundant hope.

“But I’m afraid you are also implying that we humans will continue to suffer the feelings of separation and aloneness as long as we are homo sapiens.”

Yes, I am. More than just implying it, I’m saying ‘Hurrah’ for it. It is an absolute necessity for evolution. Without your sacrifice, you the prodigal sons of evolution, the process would not have moved forward. It is required that you suffer until such pressure develops in the evolutionary strain to force the genetic change. I refer you back to Letter Thirteen for more specific techniques and suggestions on how to ride out the storm, and to alleviate some of your suffering. Try to see it this way: Your suffering and feelings of being cut off from divinity, are for a deep and grand purpose. It is your curse, but it is also your privilege and gift to the Cosmos.

“I guess that’s some comfort. We’re suffering for a noble cause! But I will keep asking for something else from you. Surely there is a way to hasten this awakening you’re talking about. Why do we just have to wait and wait until, spirit gets ready?”

Because you are spirit. You have to be ready, not get ready. What this means is that you, and humankind, have been evolving into a state of conscious opening and alignment for thousands of years; millions of years would not be an inaccurate timeframe. Still now, if you can ask the question you just asked, it indicates that you are ready. That awakening could happen at any moment for you, and for anyone who is asking such a question. Destiny is upon you.

“How can I really sense that destiny? I assume you’ll say it’s the same as sensing God or Source.”

Precisely. They are each the same. Let me walk you through a little exercise in sensing your destiny. Confirm an intention right now to use your awareness, as fully as you can. Start with simple thinking; this is probably the easiest form of awareness for you right now. Then feel your emotions, whatever they are at this moment. Next, with a clear grasp of your thinking process and emotions, let go a little; just relax in your mind and body. Feel the release, even if it’s only slight. Notice that this feels like an expansion within yourself. It is an expansion. Consciousness is opening just a bit wider in you.

Now, stay with the feeling of being aware and opening. This is subtle, but real. Do not fix your attention on any objects or thought-forms in your mind. The consciousness is in you, not outside you. Even your thoughts are outside the real you. Another illusion to release is that you are embracing your reality; this is inaccurate as well. You are the inside of everything! As you hold the intention of not fixing on forms, feel the flow of awareness around you. That awareness is continuously floating in the spaces between your thoughts and emotions.

Notice your mind’s temptation to look for something—a form, an object, a concept to latch onto. Let the mind be what it is; just don’t follow its lead. Let it go where it will. Now join the flow, the feeling of release around the point-of-you. The mind will send probes into your state of release, attempting to regain control. It will urge you to separate from your awareness and fall back into the hypnosis of thinking. It will urge you to attach to a form, some thing outside your point self. This is the essence of separation from Source. It all began here in this urge to go outward. Expansion is not an outward movement. It is a realization within. It is touching your destiny.

Use your awareness to see these things, these forms and urges. If you catch yourself slipping under the mind’s spell, realize that in the catching you have regained your awareness. Recognize the way the mind wants you to go. Now choose the other direction. When you see the mind pulling one way, you go the other. If it pulls you to think about something, let go of that and flow. If it urges you to move outward from your point of awareness, go even more deeply within.

To summarize: Choose an intention in your awareness. Feel your mind and emotions together. Then let go just a little. Notice a slight expansion of consciousness within yourself. Not fixing on any objects or forms, feel the flow of awareness around you. Finally, join the flow, the feeling of destiny.
