WHAT CAN WE DO DIFFERENTLY?


 
 
 
 
With politics taking up so much attention in our news, I couldn't help but think how meaningful and eventful soul awakening could be if more people had enthusiasm for their own 'game changing'.  This would mean dropping the facade and actually being full time who we really are.  References to being respectful also comes up in politics.  Yet, how many people actually respect themselves and others?  If we respected ourselves, would we eat, drink, think, speak and act out negative choices?  I think not.  If we respected life would humanity continue to hate, punish and slaughter for inhumane reasons?  I think not.

If we really pay attention to the 'game changers', how many are genuinely at peace with themselves or toward others?  All of us need to look closely at our intention.  Many people say that they would like to serve life in a grander way and give hope to others at the same time. Yet, I do not see anyone experiencing a true identity realization without pain, suffering, lack, limitation and loneliness.  What ever happened to playfulness?  Where is the genuine joy and laughter that is normally an intimate part of true love?   Perhaps, we need to come up with something new and beautiful that is actually fun...not the tears like so many good people shed.

Regardless of our visions, occasional bliss and close encounters, I personally feel we have tears and occasional anguish and bewilderment because we do not consciously have the answers.  Many souls feel like they only have half a recipe for perfection.  Everything that has been gained in soul evolution has been through pain. Years ago, I was shown in a vision to throw the cross away. Easier said than done. What can we do differently to change soul evolution so the pain is transformed into pleasure?

Just imagine...if we gave our desire for a true and permanent enlightenment the same power and practice that admirers of presidential candidates are given, perhaps progress would come more quickly.  Why not elect to be who we really are and play a role that better reflects our inner truth and eternality?

As we awaken, we are better equipped to help other species fight against cruelty and neglect. Many of us are heart involved with the safety and care of animals. This is a widening circle of light.  We also could expand our respect, compassion and love toward the human race as well.  We don't need to continue to live in a laboratory environment and neither should there exist a heartbreaking world of animal or earth abuse.  All life deserves hope as well as care.

The brilliant soul we know as Albert Einstein said, "Our task must be to free ourselves...by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty."  We are overdue~
In Einstein's equation we know that mass (m) and the speed of light (c) are related in some way. ... that mass and energy are really different manifestations of the same thing.  Recognizing, accepting and living this understanding is our first step.

Light is a bond that frees us. It does lighten our load.  
I know that there is an 'idea' out there incorporating this ancient truth that for some reason it hasn't  been fully understood.  I ask that it will soon materialize to make it less troublesome for more of us to claim our true identity  as spirit in form.  In the meantime, we must remember and elect to do and be our truth consciously.  

In harmony,

DO YOU FEEL LOVED?

    

Some of us talk and write about love and do our best to be the most loving person toward others and yet, stay aloof from personally receiving love.  This often happens when we have been repeatedly harmed by people who normally would be the ones expected to love us.  If our parents, siblings, spouses, children and friends who come in and out of our lives do not genuinely love themselves, how can they love us?  It becomes a facade, a painful  pretense of what we hope would be and is not.  As a result, many sensitive people shut down and won't allow themselves to feel.  Although unhealthy, it feels safe.  It isn't a waste of energy attempting a pretense for something that is plastic and does not hold its form under stress and strain.

You would be surprised to learn how many people have never felt love, particularly an unconditional love that they can trust.  Humans attempt to compensate for the lack and yet, many don't even consciously realize that lack exists.  This is one of the reasons people hate, harm and even kill life...true love does not exist for them.  When those we expect to love us do not express love, it makes it more difficult to love and honor ourselves.  You might be one of the 'shut' down souls who have not yet discovered that your outer appearance of happiness hides your secret yearning for love, a love that has no conditions nor expectations...a joyous love that accepts you as you are. It feels like the old popular song , "Laughing on the outside crying on the inside".

If denial is the norm and you have not honestly experienced a love that nourishes and heals, adopt an animal friend.  Adoption may not work the first time.  Through the years, you may have to take in several different kinds of animals into your home environment until one comes along and breaks through the solid wall of protection you have deliberately built around the pain in your heart.  When the wall crumbles, you experience pure magic.  Your 'pet' will love you unconditionally and with gratitude.  As you give,  he or she will help you feel genuinely good about yourself.  Your happiness will spill over on others and the circle of love will widen in unexpected and beautiful ways.  Yes, do yourself and an animal a favor.  When you allow an animal into your heart, love is naturally returned and a sweet healing takes place in the body, mind and soul.

In gratitude,

WE ARE NOT A FINISHED PRODUCT!

The fact that we are not a finished product will offer hope to many people who are dismayed by what has happened in their own lives as well as the world at large.  There is a different rhythm in our very midst that nobody can take away from us.  The problem is that most people don't know they have it.  To become more intimate of its presence and power we need to look behind appearances and to stop mentalizing life.  Genuine joy, oneness, unconditional love and wisdom, in other words, the Summit, is nor necessarily above somewhere.  It can be realized right here at ground level.

Too many people are bewildered by the negative and yet, truth is right here, immediate and all-powerful in each atom, cell and breath we take.  Our responsibility is to awaken to our true identity as spirit, a higher rhythm, another way of being.  We can go about our mundane activities and actually be consciously aware of this 'other' rhythm vibrating very softly in the background.  The Light is us.  Acknowledging its presence, it shines.  In various activities and different points it leads and reassures.  We must learn to be vigilant because there will always be people who will not understand who will attempt at different times to snatch us away from the power of our rhythm.

We may stumble but if we persist and are trusting although appearing awkward and judging ourselves harshly for falling back, we can pick ourselves up and continue to learn the dance.  Eventually, as we strive to be our true Self in matter, a finished product,  we begin to enter self-mastery.  The kind of mastery I am talking about is different that the usual mentioned in books.  We are awakening and remembering here in matter and learning how to use the rhythm called the Law of Truth.  Truth is like a seamless white robe of softness.  Eventually, we achieve a genuine clarity and tranquility.  It is a peace that we cannot explain to others.  The mind grows quieter.  We can see clearly without all the mental labels.

Our finished product is waiting for us.  Heaven is hidden in our midst.  Have hope, dear friends. we do become stronger with each obstacle and every second we really live what we know is true for us.

In harmony,

WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FAITH?



lightawakenbeautiful16.jpg


WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FAITH?

People often ask me where or how I developed faith.  I cannot really answer that.  Perhaps, somewhere in the long ago past I made a choice to be aware.  Observing humanity, it appears as if a bond between Heaven and Earth has broken or ruptured many souls from a genuine connection referred to as the power of faith.   There is a huge difference between reason and spiritual realization.  Many of us have been severely abused, misjudged, scorned, ignored, deceived, raped and even have had the life almost choked out of us.  Yet, here we stand, our faith stronger than ever.

I know as a fact that we can recover what sometimes feels as a lost spiritual anchorage because the bond is only concealed and not lost. We really do not know the power of our faith unless we meet a serious challenge head on with absolute trust.  I have found that trust and openness to the Divine is true power.  The mind and body can overcome any sense of isolation, alienation, fragmentation of incompleteness when we have genuine faith.

When a life threatening situation occurred in my own body years ago, I made a decision. This particular challenge was in the area of bodily health.  Putting ego aside, the opinions of others and the doubts and fears that typically cripple an opportunity to heal, I made a choice.  The choice was not to seek medical emergency help.  Instead, I went back to bed although it was mid-morning and surrendered my physical life to the Divine.  I had had no training in spirituality but somewhere within consciousness I knew I was not separated from Source.  As a result of my conscious decision, the entirety of what I am was fully healed within one hour.  This action was a turning point in my life.  I am not suggesting that you make the same choice as I did in a similar medical situation.  My choice is simply one example out of thousands.

Where the confidence of faith came from I cannot explain.  In all probability, I gained sacred knowledge somewhere in a long ago past and in that current moment of decisiveness and pain, I reconnected to my own true and spiritual nature.  The faith that awakened within me became a powerful presence of light for the suffering that came later.  At different points in our journey, we are given opportunities to resurrect our true self.  Just because we have faith it does not mean the 'dark' side of life avoids us. 

Offering healing energy to others and an intimate understanding and sharing of the divine Light became my response to physical life.  There are many others like myself who view the world as a sanctuary and hold a genuine reverence for life and the cosmos as a whole.  And...most of you quietly live your life as I have.  We do our best to treat each other according to what both we and they can potentially become: divine lights uplifting ourselves and helping others to heal, to integrate, to become reverential.  Although we have experienced a  'second birth', we understand we are not a finished product.  Spiritual realization is a state of mind and heart, an awakened consciousness.

What happened through the many dark moments was an increase in faith. I'm writing this for you who desire to be a part of the movement to manifest on the material plane peace, harmony, love, joy, justice and a genuine understanding.  We are not alone.  Thought is an active, powerful force that will effect our evolution. Be confident, expand your faith by getting up and taking action.  Remember, there is a gigantic network, a community of beings in the invisible realms, who derive great joy in helping us.  Let us link our light and unite for the purpose of regenerating the human race.  Faith will help us do it for the sheer joy of doing it.

In harmony and gratitude,

Shirlee Hall

WHAT DO I MEAN BY 'BUTTERFLYHOOD'?





 
I think about 'Butterflyhood' a lot.  The caterpillar is a perfect symbol to represent a typical carbon based human who eats everything in front of him and doesn’t always get along with others.  Inside the caterpillar is hidden the butterfly.  Inside a physical body is a spirit longing to be free.   At some point, the soul will have had enough and desires to be its true Self.  When this occurs, a sincere longing is aroused as a desire to change individual frequency and do things differently rising to greater heights.
 
We often begin our transformation with being more selective about the foods we eat.  Our cells usually need to be regenerated and can be if intelligence is used in a selective and determined way.  It is possible to totally rebuild the body into a balanced vehicle.  We can improve our state of health by making intelligent choices as to what we drink and eat.  The choice is always up to us. One of the most serious disciplines in the process of awakening is to consciously guard the gate to the five senses, particular thoughts and words.  Through a developed devotion, grateful prayer and silent meditation the metamorphosis is accelerated.  Life changes and becomes more like the heart of a flower. We begin to connect with our higher purpose and energy which often is similar to the sublime nectar and delicate taste of a bloom.  We can read inspirational words, attend classes, do good works and much more and yet,  some souls feel bereft in not hearing ‘that still small voice’.
 
Good people age, get sick and experience ‘bad’ things.  Why is there such suffering?  There is one very important memory that must be awakened...locked inside a caterpillar's DNA is the butterfly.  Collectively, humans have forgotten their true identity.   Like the caterpillar, we need to at some point before it is too late resurrect not only the mind but also our cells to incorruptibility transforming our view of a purpose and plan.  We have the potential and power to reawaken the superman or superwoman within us.  I strongly feel that when we do, we can biologically resurrect the body and live as long as we choose to.  Deprogramming self-accepted limitations helps us restore our sense of higher worth and not die a death of ignorance regarding our higher nature.
 
The great Indian mystic and philosopher Sri Aurobindo (1872-1950) said, “Man is a transitional being; he is not final.  The next step from man to superman is the next approaching achievement in the earth’s evolution.  It is inevitable because it is at once the intention of the inner Spirit and the logic of Nature’s process.”   We are currently a carbon-based being that can be transformed through deliberate personal effort creating an indestructible and magnificently brilliant physical form very much like a diamond.  Loving and honoring the light within is a vital part of the process.   When we consciously focus on the power, presence and wisdom of the Word, Light and Love of Source as our true nature and allow Principle to work, love will transform us more fully into the living essence of a beautiful butterfly.
