OBSERVING LIGHT BODIES

Ever since I can remember the light body has been displaying itself to me through people, various life forms and inanimate objects.   Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist and other traditions frequently refer to the light body as the subtle body.  It is a radiant structure.  In the 1980’s and 1990’s I would often give workshops and lectures on the light bodies existence.  At first, I had assumed everyone saw the real body.   We do not need to be praying or meditating to view a finer dimension or frequency.   If we happen to be clairvoyant, viewing the indestructible body comes easily.

A dark environment is not required.  The subtle light body exists regardless of place, person or thing.  A few examples:  A solicitor rang my doorbell.  When I opened the door, a woman stood waiting to talk to me.  Her light body was brightly glowing in clear daylight. I found that interesting. The sun shining brightly did not diminish the woman’s personal radiance as far as visibility.  Once when a friend was visiting our home, she chose a chair in front of a full-length wall mirror.  I sat opposite of her.  I could see her reflection in the mirror but I also saw her light body sitting in the identical position next to her and its reflection in the mirror.  There doesn’t seem to be any restrictions on how the light body presents itself. 

I’ve noticed that when a person is highly emotional the light body may expand and the colors rapidly change.  It is fascinating watching the intensity of the display.  There are other times when sitting in an auditorium that I’ve noticed some people don’t appear to have a light body.  They do because it is their life force but it is diminished for one reason or another.  Other occasions when looking at a person in front of me the light body is so bright and large that the energy is actually overflowing and covering the surrounding people.

Everything has a light body.  I particularly am impressed observing the exuberant ascent of the brilliant form when a living creature takes her or his last breath.  It is quite beautiful.  The most recent one I was blessed to view was my guinea pig Taffy.  She was so bright and alive.  When Chickee, our canary, died his light body was ecstatically demonstrative. His brilliancy flew joyfully all around me.  He was more alive in his subtle body than his caged physical form.  The appearance of the true body often displays a playfulness and beauty clearly demonstrating that life continues in a joyful way.  It is a genuine freedom most souls do not experience when using a physical form.  I am very thankful for this view and to be able to share it with you.  The light body is not a mythological archetype drenched with symbolic meaning.  It exists as you and me in our everyday world with as much reality as the physical organism.  There are times when I look at another and view the divine energy form shining so brightly that I do wish the other could also view his or her own magnificent beauty.  Trust in what I am sharing so openly with you.  You are radiant light.

PROOF WE HAVE A LIGHT BODY

Since ancient times we have been told we have a spiritual body.  In the 1970’s, Kirlian photography was popularly used to display the light-energy emitting from any form in matter. Because it had variances and scientifically didn’t match the standards of experimentation, the truth of our light-energy isn’t as popularly discussed as it once was. People continue to have brief glimpses, a clairvoyant revelation, particularly in healing or meditative experiences.  What I am talking about is grander than an aura.  It is actually a spiritual body of light, perfect, that existed prior to our descending into matter.

Many of us ‘see’ the subtle planes of light spontaneously although we don’t usually talk about it.  An endearing personal example was the time my one son was ill and regardless of the doctor visit and medicine he was taking remained ill.  I remember sitting at my desk frustrated with his ongoing weakness.  A telepathic thought came to me that sounded outlandish.  The words were, “Go to his room and demand he get out of bed and be well”.  It sounded Biblical to me but, this is the important part; I did not question the suggestion.  I immediately ran to his darkened room, stood by his bunk beds and commanded him to stand up and be well.

He obeyed.  Two things happened simultaneously.  One, He said all the illness was draining out of his body and going through his feet and floor.  Two, as he stood, he reached his young skinny arms out to me.  In shock, I witnessed his physical body and simultaneously a body of light, fully adult sized reaching out toward me.  His very large and perfect spiritual body surrounded his young and short physical body.  He was healed instantly.  His first response was to run downstairs to the kitchen and eat a bowl of cereal.

This is only one of many personal experiences.  Many people I know can also testify to the truth of their unexpected glimpses of another reality and their existence as eternal beings.

CAN WE HEAL HEREDITARY TENDENCIES?

You are a good person.  Is it necessary to be inflicted with a genetic weakness from an ancestor?   The soul before entering the physical body does have a general idea of the challenges ahead.  Hereditary tendencies are weakened or intensified according to consciousness and lifestyle choices.  Two people could have the identical challenges yet; the out come is not identical.  Soul history and choice determine how a weakness does or does not manifest.  The belief system is the greatest influence.

The worse case example is the scenario where a person repetitively comments on how her mother, aunt, and grandmother all experienced a particular disease. The young mother I knew almost seemed to relish the tale of woe and how she was certain that she, too, would die of cancer.  She kept feeding her belief system and it grew into a cancer that eventually killed her and deprived her young son of a mother.

Because there is a possible weakness in the genetic history doesn’t mean you have to claim it as your own.  It is a perfect opportunity for us to use the mind in a scientific way and deprogram negative influences and create a higher energy that will challenge and diminish any harmful effects.

This reminds me of a diagnosis on my eyes at a young adult.  I was told I had developing cataracts.  My mother said, “Oh, it is not unusual for young people to have cataracts.  Her cousin did”.  My reaction was to refuse to accept my mother’s opinion or any family member’s medical history.  I had no intention of following a cousin’s health problem.  Later, when I was alone and sitting in a meditation chair, I released the thought of cataracts and embraced the power of the Holy Spirit assuming that my eyesight would be correct.  The healing was instantaneous.  I revisited the physician and received verification.

HOW DISEASE MAY BE CREATED

I have a lifetime of gems to share.  The intent of this format is to present the jewels to you simply with a conscious authority that arises from an ongoing intimacy with the Divine.  There are many views to consider.  As an example, the following words may sound ‘foreign’ to you.  Looking at healing from a different view is challenging but can fling the door open in rather remarkable ways.  Imagine something is disrupted in your physical body.  You begin to talk about it.  A possible lie or temporary distraction is set in motion as a truth.  Next, you hear a suggestion from a family member or friend.  Your mind gets excited, fear takes possession and voila, a phenomenon is produced.  You become concerned and make a doctor’s appointment. The doctor asks you to describe the problem.  You tell him and he gives your problem a name.  Now, you are really disturbed.   Your mind is focused on his comments and fear begins to solidify the disturbance in your body.

Could it be that various beliefs and opinions of the world actually make people sick?  A good example is the flu season.  Who created the flu season?  Who said you will likely experience several colds each year?  Statements like this are false beliefs and opinions.  Do you really need a flu shot?  I tell myself that I don’t need to experience a cold, flu or a shot and nothing nasty materializes.   If you cause the mind to be confused by psychological disturbances, you will have negative effects.   We really need to watch our words and also pay close attention to the language other people direct toward us, particularly authority figures.  Excitement, fear and opinions usually obliterate wisdom.

I also find it interesting that we are told in scripture not to take any thought of what we shall eat or drink because it doesn’t have as much to do with our health as we may think.  It is our patterns, thoughts and what comes out of the mouth that harms our health.   Perhaps, we need to prove the science of wisdom and correct our opinions in order to change our health.

BE A CONSCIOUS WATCHER

You are an intelligent light temporarily using a natural body.  Another way of saying this is…you are a Spiritual Body watching your temporary natural body.  A greater Spiritual Light Body surrounds your natural or physical body.   Within the field that surrounds your natural body vibrate your senses, feeling nature and mind.   If you were to be examined, the senses, feeling nature and mind would not be detected in your natural body.  They are always present in the field that surrounds you.  They are a medium that your Spiritual Body and Natural Body both use.

You really are the watcher and your physical form and the medium you can use are a means for the Real Life, Spiritual Body, to live in a physical-material environment.  As your thinking mind becomes aware of its self as an eternal being of Light, it naturally expands its energy that is Radiant Light.   Greater personal light expansion opens the door to a grander version and use of wisdom that is actually scientific.  We become conscious co creators manifesting beauty and love in a natural environment.   Actually, the awareness process is not all that difficult.  This is why beings that tend not to be intellectual often create greater happenings judged by others as miracles.   They understand the simplicity of what can be accomplished without all the baggage of other people’s opinions and false belief systems.   I was just thinking of the missionary who was telling aboriginals how Jesus walked on water and that they could do likewise.  Because they were not intellectually complicated, programmed, those who listened to the missionary without hesitation walked on the water.

IS A BAD EXPERIENCE ALWAYS KARMIC?

If we were warned about a possible negative incident, I wouldn’t label it as karma. Warnings can be a way of softening an experience that could be categorized as a karmic debt.   Literally everything that has happened to us past and present is stored in the subconscious.  A past association or person is easily triggered in the present.  Have you ever met someone physically for the first time and been repelled?  Something about that person’s energy triggers either a past association with them or someone similar that was very unpleasant.  When it shows up again in current time, examine your reaction.  What have you learned from the energy presenting itself?  It simply could be that you never want it in your life again.  Or perhaps, forgive it not knowing why forgiveness is necessary.

It is always prudent to analyze a strong reaction because something obviously triggered it that may need to be healed.   The appearance and your current reaction could also be to show you just the opposite.  Although the memory surfaced, the energy could already be healed.   What we judge as a ‘bad’ experience can be viewed as a reminder of what we no longer wish in our life.  Just because you are being observant and maturing doesn’t mean that others around you are changing as well.  The idea is to be aware at all times of your reactions.  Emotional responses reveal a soul history.  Awareness will help you change harmful patterns including feelings regarding karmic debt.  There are many ways of looking at a situation.  Intention is a vital component in what we do or do not do.

WE MAY NOT ALWAYS LOVE OUR SELF

Although I am blessed with a keen understanding and a knowledge that knows how to use mind for not only my good but for others, I may on a rare occasion take a ‘vacation’ from wisdom.  Whether it is boredom with my human experience, stress, an unfilled desire or just plain lack of attentiveness, weak moments can happen.  I experienced a huge one 10 years ago.  A morning dream warned me of an impending accident.  Later, while eating breakfast the warning came again.  I chose to ignore it.  When I got up from the table, an unseen force came toward me throwing my body down into a large Egyptian cauldron.  You read that right.   I have several Egyptian pieces in my home.  After three days of limping around, I immersed from denial and realized the hip was broken.

My mind was lazy.  It didn’t listen to the guidance and suffering ensued.  Why do we allow unnecessary things to happen?  The reason could be simply a desire for a change of pace.  This is not meant as a joke.  Surgery, rehab and a vacation from our normal activities could be a reason although not a sound one.  I am convinced that a mind, particularly emotionally directed, causes strange things to happen.  Sometime, look back at unpleasant things that have happened to you.  Try and find the cause that created the effect.   We are lucky when we recognize what began the stream of events.  More often than not cause is so buried in the subconscious that we instead blame family, friends or some other situation that really did not have anything to do with the occurrence.  Not listening to intuition and following loving advice is a form of neglect, which is a dishonor toward our Real Self.
