We have been interested in the ability of many in the physical world to communicate and tap into the resources of the non-physical world.  These experiences have been increasing over time and will someday reach a point where more people than not, will be doing the things that you and others have learned to do.

We are most anxious to raise the level of consciousness in this area, for it will become the way of the world and will allow all of those who do it, to touch their inner selves in ways that have been previously ignored.  It will open up channels to the infinite knowledge that exists and many more people will access those channels which will help them understand that there is much more available outside of the physical world that many confine themselves to.

It is our intention that this happens and we see this work as an avenue towards helping those interested people find their own connections.

<P> That is great to hear, I am excited for others to begin doing this as well.  How should they begin?

Well, as we have stated in the past, a good way to begin is by meditating as little as fifteen minutes each day.  They can call it whatever they want, but they should allow for their mind to get an opportunity to remove the clutter that often occupies it in such a way that the person is not able to hear any of the messages being sent to them from their inner self.    Much the way you began down this road. For others, though, they should not expect the same quick results.

They should begin to meditate with the intention of connecting to their inner self, and then allow for that connection to happen.  The difficulty, as you are well aware, lies in the ability to understand when that connection is made, and to trust in the words and the messages that come from that connection.  However, as we have pointed out in prior sessions, the source of the message need not matter, but rather the message itself is what matters.  The messages are the truth that we so often seek though others, but have the ability to find within ourselves whenever we are wanting that truth.  We simply need to open our minds and establish that connection to the source of all truth, to the infinite wisdom that has all truth.  When we access that source of information, we can discover for ourselves, the truth that we strive to find.

We need not look to others for that truth, for others cannot and will not give us the truth that we seek if they are truthful indeed.  We all know that each person has their own truth that they must find and uncover it for themselves.  One way to do that is through the emotional radar system that we have spoken many times prior.

However, when people make the connection to the source of knowledge – to their inner self directly, they can channel that truth directly to their physical selves, and do not need to use the emotional radar system to test if specific things, events, and people are their truth.  For they will hear and know the truth directly.

<P> Are you saying that we all can use our emotional guidance system to understand if a particular event, thing or person is aligned with our inner truth?  Although, we do not need that system if we simply access the truth directly, we can hear in a sense that truth without having to test each item that we are curious  about?

Yes, we are saying that it is much more efficient and clear to establish a channel to your inner source, so that you can find and hear that truth directly.  However, in the absence of that ability, we are saying that you can and should listen to your emotions so that you know when you are either aligned or misaligned with your truth.

It is our objective and intent for everyone to eventually get to a point where they are able to connect directly to that inner truth.  Work such as this should allow people to understand that they have that ability and to begin the process of tapping into that ability.  That is one of the intents that we hold for these writings.

Story:  The Boy Who Wondered What He Should Be

This is a story of a young boy who was looking for the purpose in his life.  Often, adults would ask this young boy, what he wanted to be when he grows up. Well early in his age he would answer as many young boys would answer – with things like a fireman, or a policeman, and even sometimes an astronaut who could fly in a space ship and go to outer space.

However, he was in his early teen years now, and found that those things were no longer of interest to him.

A few days prior, On his thirteen birthday, he was again asked that question, and found that he did not have an answer.  Each night since that birthday, he would lie in bed and begin to imagine himself doing different things and being different people.  “I could be a doctor,” he thought.  “Or maybe a lawyer or professional basketball player.  Maybe  I’ll invent something and own my own business,” he pondered.  The thoughts kept coming to him, but nothing seemed to resonate with his inner self.  There was nothing that seemed to really be and match the thing that he knew he wanted, yet could not uncover.

One day while he was in school, a parent came in to talk to the class.  This lady was a professional writer and had published many books.  She spoke a bit about the process of writing, pointing out that she often would begin a book with absolutely no idea on what the book would be about.   Sometimes, she would sit down to write a book, and not know if it would be fiction or fact.

She continued to talk about something called writer’s block, when a writer just hits a sort of wall and doesn’t know what they should write about. They stall, like a car that runs out of gasoline.

The boy listened intently, for he felt that was where he was at with his important decision that lie before him.  A decision that he thought would affect the rest of his life.  Never mind the fact that he put undo pressure on himself to make that decision.

The lady continued to talk about how she would begin a book.  “Often times,” she said, “I go for a walk, and see a bird playing in its nest, so I think about writing a book about a bird and the adventures that they encounter.”

“Sometimes, I take a drive into the countryside, and look around at the beauty around me, and decide to write about nature and the world around us.  A world that many of us never see, because we are too busy to look.”

“The  one thing I never do, though, is think about what my book will be about.  If I do that, I will never come up with the idea that I need to have.”

She went on to say, “Sure, I put my intention out there about a topic for a new book, but then I just open up my mind to receive the topic that comes to me.  I let it come to me, rather than searching for it on my own.”

The boy went home that night pondering that statement, “I let it come to me rather than searching for it on my own.”  He decided that he would do the same, and extinguished any thoughts on the “lifetime” decision that he had been pondering.

The days, weeks, and years, quickly flew by, when the boy, now a grandfather found himself at his 80th birthday.  He was about to blow out the candles, when his young great-grandson asked him, how he knew what it is he wanted to be when he grew up.

The man looked straight into the young boy’s eyes, and said, “I never figured out what I wanted to be, I only let myself be anything, that it wanted to be.”  With that he blew out the candles, and began to cut the cake.

The young boy, not being satisfied, asked his great-grandfather another question.  “Great granddaddy, may I ask another question?”

“Yes, certainly you may,” he replied.  “When you were my age, did you know that you would accomplish such great things?  Did you know that you would earn a Nobel prize, and become president of our country?”

The man, stopped cutting the cake, sat down next to the boy, and looked deep into his eyes and said, “When I was your age, I tried to figure out what it is I wanted to be when I grew up, just like you are doing now.  But then I figured out that by trying to plan my life, especially at such a young age, would lead to one of two things.  One, I would set such high hopes and expectations that I might always live my life as a failure, for I might never reach those expectations; and two, that if I set too low of hopes and expectations that I would never realize my potential.  That is when I decided that I would live my life moment to moment, and make those decisions one at a time.  I stopped trying to plan, and began letting my life live and follow the things that gave me the most joy.  Much like a magnet is drawn towards metal.  I let my life’s joy be the magnet that drew me to the things that provided me with inner joy and happiness.  The things that I needed to fulfill a happy, joyous life.”

He then went on to tell the boy, “Do not spend your life planning the rest of your life.  Rather spend your life following the things that give you joy, and living each moment to the fullest.  Do not waste away your childhood, wishing and hoping that you were older.  Live the things that you should do now, that provide you with joy and happiness, that make you feel happy and fun.  Do not fret over the future, for that will be a long-lasting endeavor, and one that could never be won,  much like a dog that chases it’s tail and ends up right where it started.”

With that, the man offered the young boy a piece of chocolate cake, and a smile.

Ω

The man had figured out that by trying to explicitly plan his life, he would have painted himself into one of two corners, neither of which would be the thing that would provide him joy.  He decided to let himself live his life moment to moment, and to see how he was attracted to the things, events, and people who would provide him with inner joy;  joy that was harmonious to his inner truth.  He discovered that by searching for his truth, he could never be happy.  Rather he decided to let that truth find him instead.

InspiraCard

A wise man is one that understands the need to let himself be drawn to the things, events, and people who he needs in his life.  Things, events and people who are harmonious with his inner truth, while at the same time, understanding that a priori decisions about who those things, events and people are, will inevitably end in doom.
