Different Subects – Continued

So I am looking forward to the future. Fifty years ago hardly anyone knew about metaphysics. Now so many people are interested in it, and I see it being a major component of the change that is to come. It has the answers, and I know that those who attend the Master of Metaphysics course we run at our Center in Seattle leave thoroughly changed and transformed. They have received the answers to life itself on so many levels. It makes common sense, and yet we have been denied this knowledge for thousands of years.

Christianity, with its fear of God and its emphasis on “sin,” has taken away the true meaning of God, that of unconditional love. God does not judge – it is not able to. It is pure love and, when there is love and understanding, one cannot judge. We are all souls on a journey. As one person said, we are a soul on a journey in a physical body, and that body is only ours for this lifetime. When we die – and we all have to die – we become only a soul again. Every soul looks alike, not exactly of course, but you will not be able to label a soul. Through our incarnations, we have all been murderers, rapist, thieves, vagabonds, free (gay) and many other titles. we have also been happy, content, generous, kind, understanding and had good lives. We come here to the earth plane to learn from life itself. We cannot do that in the next world for there it is a perfect situation where no blame, guilt, fear or any other emotion exists. There is no Self to lie to us, only the Higher Self and God, omnipresent God with its everlasting love. How do I know this? I was embraced by that energy many years ago.

Different Subjects – Continued

On another subject, the other night I heard a well-known entertainer on TV stating that, over the years, she had been called a Negro, colored, and black – along with other names – and it made me ask the question “Why do we have to label everyone?” Just because they have a different skin color does that mean they are different? No, it does not, as we are all the same inside. Originally, a black person’s skin was the way it was to protect them from the sun in Africa. I would never have survived one day there as my skin burns at the first sight of the sun. From what I have read, the original black people were highly intelligent souls who, when brought to the USA, were expected to be like white people. However, I don’t think we were intelligent enough then to see that they came from a different country and, as such, were different! When they came, they became slaves and had to fight for their freedom.

It astonishes me to know that, even 60 years ago in the United States, if you were black you had to go to a different toilet than white people. We are all the same inside as I have said before. Our religious faith, belief system, color of our skin, whether we are large in size or very thin, have a larger nose than someone etc., should not warrant a label. We are what we are because of our genetic make-up, nothing more. When we finally go home to Spirit – our true home – we will not look like we do now. We will be without a body – just our soul – and as such can be as we want to be. If we come back to give a message to someone to let them know we have passed and are OK, we can appear as the person we were so that we can be recognized. We do this with thought, but we are not the same. The physical body is left behind to be buried or burned. We are pure consciousness. Our Self stays here also, and when that happens, we really get to see what the Self has done to us.

Emotions – Final Words

It is not easy giving up the emotional side of us, even more so if one has a history of it in this life and in other lives. For my friend and me, it had gone on incarnation after incarnation, and I could not release it. It took Maitreya and his energy to enable me to let go of it and then to help others like my friend to see what a waste of energy it is to spend so much time on such a fruitless thing.

For me, having no emotional body anymore means that I have more intuition, far more than I ever had before. I can also manifest my needs much easier. No wonder I could not manifest the things I needed (and, can I say, wanted) because I was giving so much energy to things which were emotional. I realized that the Self and the emotional part of us are like a big box with a lid on it. We cannot get out of the box. However, when we take the lid (the Self and emotions) off of the box, there is more space and energy to manifest, to see the light and become more intuitive.

It does not happen overnight. It is simply a matter of taking one step at a time. Awareness is the key, becoming aware of how you are reacting, and saying to yourself, ”Is this necessary?” and then changing the energy. Affirmations such as, “I am not going to react to this anymore” or “I choose to change the way I do things from now on” can really help with this. It can be changed if you want to change it. I have grown so much since giving up the emotional side of me, however at times it comes back. When I am tired or exhausted from my work, the Self slips in again. It starts playing the record again and, lo and behold (because the Higher Self is not there because I am so tired), I cannot handle it, and so it briefly takes control. It does not last more than a day though before the Higher Self brings in enough energy to thwart the Self in its tracks. It is a battle, but very well worth the battle when you win it!

Emotions – Continued

It is not easy giving no energy to things we would normally react to. A lot of what we do is programming or conditioning and also energy left over from past lives. The first thing to do is to be aware of what one is doing. Once one begins to do that, then it is a matter of not reacting when it happens again. In my friend’s case, when it first happened she was devastated. It was a family member whom she had been extremely close to. She tried to heal the wound which had come between them, but two other parties were involved, and this person supported the other two – who were even closer to them. My friend, of course, never stopped talking about the issue, how hurt she was, how this person had treated her, etc., and at every opportunity the Self would have her crying. Her Self brought other people in to keep the subject current so that even more energy was given to it. She happened to have a career where she had clients visiting her, and her clients kept the subject current. Of course, the Self, the actress within her, loved telling her story because it evoked sympathy. Yes, the Self was on a roll.

Maitreya could see what was happening and so created a situation where she was faced with this person again, and this time the same thing happened. The Self came in, but then a part of my friend could finally see it was the other person’s problem, not hers. She was just reacting because she was very upset and felt abandoned. I pointed out to her that she was still loved by me, her clients, and the rest of her family. It was the other person’s loss that she was no longer in their life. They could not see that, but it was so. Finally, she was able to see it for herself and peace ensued.

Emotions – Continued

I recently watched a friend of mine go through a harrowing emotional experience and, as it always did, her Self came out in all its glory. Her response always has been to react by crying. Why would people treat her this way? Was she not a decent person? Her Self not only had a field day with her, but it really wrung out the emotions full blast. The person who had upset her was a family member, one she had been close to all of her life. The person would not speak to her and, worse than that, when she was in his presence he would not make eye contact and treated her as if she did not exist! I had told her not to cry in front of this person as this gave the person more fuel to hurt her with. She managed to stem the crying until she was alone. Then the Self came out big time and really brought her down. I told her that once the crying stopped, she should thank this person for doing what they did, for they were teaching her emotional detachment.

She was, ironically, in her 2nd Saturn return at age 59 (Saturn is in its second return at age 58 to 61½). Her life lesson is to learn detachment and, at age 59, she was finally learning how to detach from her emotions, something that prior to 59 (and in past lifetimes) she had found very difficult to do. Had she not learned her lesson now, she would have another 29 years until age 85 (if she lived that long) to learn. And if not then? She would have to come back again for another try.

I told her that she should be grateful to be learning it now and not have to come back, as each lifetime it gets harder and harder to learn. Thankfully, she understood what I was saying to her. Whether it was Maitreya’s energy or just the right time for her to learn, I do not know, but she finally felt at peace!
