The Universe Is An Ocean Of Thoughts

 Its amazing how this universe works. Made up of thought energy it is definitely a generator of feelings, emotions and desires. What you think of the most really does control the flow of what happens to you in your life. The universe reacts to our perceptions each and every day.

The more your thoughts are aimed at one particular direction the more the universe works to respond to your request. To a certain degree this statement is agreeing with the cliche known as 'the law of attraction' but it is true.

Take for example the typical tale of one little boy who is adamant that something others see as a reality doesn't exist at all. He goes out of his way to prove he is right. He eats, breathes and sleeps his perception. And you know what? The universe provides him with the reality where his perception is correct. To him his reality is the only reality. Little does he know that it is his thought energy which has created his reality for him, by sending the experiences and the situations to him that match his perception. However, those others who he tries so desperately to expose as being false & deceptive, are living in a totally different reality to him. Because their thoughts are aimed at a different perception to the little boy, those things that the little boy now can't experience, become part of the experience they find themselves in. Their thoughts create a vortex of energy to attract to them a different experience to the little boy. Now no matter how the little boy tries he will never see the reality they exist in, and his scepticism continues. Equally, they are unable to ever satisfy the demands of the little boy because their reality is so far away from his.

And this is happening all over the world. It is a world of such diverse differences. We all think differently, no two minds interpret thoughts the same ... so you might share your life path with others on a regular basis, but know they will not see live the same as you, no matter how you try to get your point across to them.

The universe is very responsive therefore to what you are thinking right now, and it is very likely that how you are thinking or feeling in this moment is due to how you were thinking maybe a week or two ago. This is why it is essential to be responsible for your thoughts. Loose thoughts can create havoc in the universe. Thought energy is the basis of magic. Think of something with sufficient intention and it can be manifested. This is the basis of clairvoyance, a little known fact. Our minds can manifest actions and events if we go about it correctly. A competent and reputable clairvoyant is actually someone with a mind of sufficient power of intention to make things happen for their client. No don't laugh. It's true.

It stands to reason this is possible with the universe being much like an ocean of thoughts. Like an ocean there is the ebb and flow of tides. Push those tides correctly and events can be created or prevented. An interesting notion only to you perhaps, but it has every likelihood to be in true in your reality as well as my own - Matthew James

Fire Letter Realisation

 On the evening of Sunday 25th February 2007  (Click on the link) I experienced one of the most phenomenal 'supernatural' experiences of this life. It was completely overwhelming and completely unexpected. There had been no warning or pre-knowledge of the event. 

Moments after I'd closed my eyes, in readiness for sleep, I became aware of a moving apparition in my mind's eye. It was tiny at first, but as I watched the image, it began to grow bigger and bigger in size. I perceived it was moving towards me from somewhere. 

I could see that the apparition was a pattern formed from one or more Hebrew letters. The letters where clearly purple in colour. The letters were surrounded by purple flames. 

Then when I perceived the image was directly in front of me I felt, I actually felt, the image enter my mind/consciousness via my pineal/pituitary gland (What we term The Third Eye). From that moment I became totally overwhelmed by the apparition. It had intense heat. Intense energy. Intense power. It completely overshadowed my awareness. For those precious moments it had entered my consciousness, my entire being was filled with the energy and fire of the fire letter apparition.

Then as quickly as it arrived, it was gone. I felt energised by the visitation but also saddened by the disconnection from the energy. I felt no fear. I KNEW in that instance that my understanding since a child, of external forces & life beyond the human vibration, had been confirmed. It was a deliberate act by something EXTERNAL to me. This had not been a figment of my own imagination. It was something intense and something very significant. 

It was many months later that I obtained my own copy of The Keys Of Enoch. This had not been planned. Up until that point I did not even know the book existed. We'd ventured to Taupo on the North Island Of New Zealand, and had visited a favourite New Age Shop of ours there. I had merely been rummaging through a pile of books in an area of the shop, and chanced upon this strange looking white book. The look of sheer shock on the shop keeper's face indicated something of significance had taken place. He'd only purchased the book the day before and knew it was for someone. That someone was obviously me.

It was weeks later that I came upon the first notions of the Fire Letters. Reading the texts closer I made the startling discovery that I'd been attuned by one of these Fire Letters! But there was more to it than that. I was inadvertently linked to the author and the collection of the Fire Letters when I was a little over 2 years old! His account of his astral travels at the start of the book paralleled my own journey that had befallen me when I was around 3 years of age. Somehow that profound memory had been imprinted in my memory.

Researching the Keys Of Enoch further I came upon the following passage: "This process of reception is begun by the projection of a brightly coloured Yod form of Light upon the face of the subject so as to trigger the necessary chemical combinations which activate the mind to receive the ideographs of communication" . This was exactly what it had been with me - a projection of brightly coloured light upon my face'.

And also: "The letters of the Living Light must first be seeded into the sub-conscious during sleep." How many other of the fire letters have been projected to me during sleep? This is my first and last conscious awareness of one.

Then I found the most profound reference to the Fire Letters of all. These was indeed a coding that coincided with the PURPLE letter I'd seen. Blue and red when combined become the colour purple: "The Brotherhood use the Sacred Fire Letters I-EE to code a BLUE-RED embodiment". From this I began to comprehend the profound effect this fire letter was going to have on me. Basically my DNA-RNA, which is crystalline and can transmit/receive light energy, had been reprogrammed. My DNA had been altered by some eternal source to the an I-EE embodiment. Communications are transmitted on a two-way basis through light. Our primary light being that of the sun. 

A further reference explains the Embodiment as: "The Brotherhoods of Light activate the sacred fire letters by projecting a burning YOD from their channel of consciousness in the higher realms to a given human circulatory system. 

The colour of the Yod dispatched opens up a fifth circulatory system of light in the body which allows all chakras to share the same pulse of transfigured light so that even the lower chakras are transformed by the higher light." 

My entire perception HAS been changed. I'd been challenged to notice any different re-alignments or anything significant since my own personal Sacred Fire Letter Embodiment. I've scoured the internet and not found any reference to this experience, or to anyone else who'd had the same experience. Something had seemingly singled me out to receive this embodiment which was so clearly described in the Keys Of Enoch.

It was only recently that I began to understand what has taken place. I look towards the strength of communications I receive on a daily basis, and realise, it is as a result of this embodiment that I can communicate with other vibrations at such a difficult time. My DNA-RNA has been hot wired to apparently counteract any of the distractions or distortions that are active at this time. I know also I am not the only one who has experienced this embodiment. Effectively, the vibration of my physical body has been increased, which has made me more aware of the dimensions around me. This is a significant milestone in my life. Indeed ... I do feel and see more than I did before. It's taken me until today to process this Sacred Fire Letter Embodiment. Only now can I begin to make real sense of the how and the why. Indeed, I can now look at the Keys Of Enoch with a greater understanding. It has been written in a way that it can only be truly understood once a mind has been subjected to a Fire Letter Embodiment (Or two or three).

One other thing is clear. Since this embodiment, my awareness of falseness and illusion are that much stronger.  Further reference to pages of The Keys Of Enoch explain the intention to improve the communications between worlds and levels of awareness via minds embodied by the Sacred Fire Letters. There is also a reference to something that I term 'The Art Of Knowing' which is one of my own spiritual principles: "this divine language is also the inductive linkage to the still small voice within the body which advises you on the read day-to-day decisions in the world so that your consciousness will not err in executing the will of the higher vibrations". © Copyright Matthew James 13th May 2013 (Except excerpts from The Keys Of Enoch by J.J.Hurtak.)

Insights Into 'The Other Side'

PART ONE of an Insightful Account Of The Spirit World written by Matthew James

A conversation with a client earlier this evening inspired me for this particular post. During the sitting, my client asked me to describe just where her late Father was residing 'on the other side'. Her Father had only recently made the transition from the Earth Plane ... and luckily I'd made a contact complete with personal information which was the validation I required to have the connection confirmed. Telepathically, I had posed the question to my client's Father and the other relations who were in attendance during the reading. 

What I received back as clear mental images as well as strong emotional insights ... was almost identical to what my own late Father had described to me; as well as a multitude of other 'departed' souls who were only eager to let me know they'd survived the transition during numerous sittings in the recent past. There appears to be a general consensus on their side of life, at this time, to really impress this imagery as much as they can.

Firstly, I get the recurrent impression, that they firmly believe it is US NOT THEM who have died. This is a regular insight from 'our dearly departed'. This impression has been shared previously on A Light In The Darkness. They remind me that we are the ones who are suffering with monetary woes, starvation, fears, addictions, murders, rapes and other atrocities. Once they have cleared themselves of the strong need to 'remain earthbound' ... they are able to venture into dimensions which are indescribable to human awareness. Dimensions which are clearly for expanded consciousness and not 'dead humans'. The strong impression is that remaining earthbound is undertaken by souls who are unable to shake off their concerns for those they were once associated to on the earth; or from their associations with the earth ... through fear, reprisal and other human emotions. Eventually even these ties fade and most move on.

Secondly, I must shatter the myth that the spirit world comprises beings of bright lights and fluffy clouds!! We merely see those who have left this world as light, because their forms exist outside of our light frequency range. We see only white light ... but there is much more beyond it. 

The biggest single revelation that is shared with me ... is that the departed souls have A PHYSICAL FORM. It is similar to the need on the physical earth to wear a form. Except their form vibrates much faster than ours and exists outside our light frequency range. Initially the departed will posses a physical form that matches that of their recent excursion on Earth. They will still succumb to the bodily needs of their earthly form ... food, drink etc etc. Plus experience the physical ailments they were blighted with on Earth. But gradually those needs will feed as they increase the vibration of their consciousness and move their awareness away from the earth plane vibrations.

I have not been able to determine what their primary energy source is other than solar energy. But I sense it is something much more and nobody is prepared to tell me! I know not if they have internal organs like we do but I would imagine that reality of internal organs will fade as they move away from our dimension. I know their forms do become interchangeable and they can shape shift. This explains why they are able to represent themselves at any point in their physical lives to those on the earth plane.

Thirdly, so many have conceded to me that they observe activity on the earth plane. They may be invisible to us on the earth ... but they do see and hear and feel everything we do. Their heart centres are very much in open mode, so they will feel what we feel. I was informed they see everything perfectly much like we do when we look through our eyes. The major difference being they do not have a physical body as a reference point ... thus they will not see arms and legs and bodies in their vision. They will merely witness the surroundings as an observer. 

Their entry point onto the earth plane appears to be something similar to what we describe as portals or wormholes. I sense we may be seeing entry points when we capture true orb activity. 

The revelation that is us on earth who are dead is the biggest reverberation in my mind ... it suggests we are all deceived on earth. That certain information is withheld from us ... our true nature! The possibility we are in REVIEW MODE at this point in our evolution doesn't bear thinking about. Some outside force appears to be tampering with a natural universal process by preventing our realisation that this is death ... thus when we 'die' and journey to the next 'hall' which should be the hall of reincarnation ... we are somehow being deceived to come back to the hall of review ... instead of venturing out into 'true life'. Interestingly, I deduce that most mediumship connections come from 'the halls of reincarnation'. I also recall so many insights and connections that have come from 'beyond the spirit world' ... inexplicable connections that are nothing like anything I had experienced before. Downloads of information which are of a similar nature to the content of this post, but are being placed in my consciousness from elsewhere...>>>to be continued>>>...

'The Truth Vibrations'

 These are difficult times. Mankind truly wanders a fragile shoreline fully mesmerised in the blinding glare of overtly imposed glamours. All of us wander a maze with mirrored walls. The majority follow the whims of their seperate self without realising those impulses are not their true selves. Those walking the spiritual paths barely fare any better. The glamours manifest themselves as 'guides', 'angels' etc. Few spiritual travellers ever question the origin or the occurrence of these glamours. They have gone along with these 'traditional' archetypes ... as it has been the unquestioned norm for so long. It has become fable and folklore associated with the 'new age movement' ... but it doesn't mean that these glamours are real ... or are correct assumptions.

2012 is going to bring in many things. But the biggest thing of all ... it seems ... is 'the truth vibration'. A big challenge for so many as it will bring the separate self into line ... and force the majority to acknowledge the false ego and all of its tribulations. For the spiritual travellers, the truth vibration is going to reveal all of the falsehoods associated with mysticism and true magick. This includes the deceptions around the glamours of 'guides' and 'angels'. All is strictly not as it seems. The connections with 'the other realms' are arriving at their strongest for eons. In order for souls to be able to attract & benefit from these connections, they must be 'cleansed' by the truth vibrations. This includes losing the need for the traditions and glamours of the New Age. It means all who are truly walking the spiritual path ... must shed the baggage they have been carrying along their journey to date ...! They must truly be prepared to be 'open minded' and be prepared to see the 'spirit world' as it truly is. First truth to truly accept that 'guides' and 'angels' are NOT what they seem to be ...

The First Painter Syndrome

 Who taught the first painter to paint? What practical book of oil painting or watercolours was around when the first time urge came to illustrate a tapestry with a colourful representation of what was on the artist's mind? Nothing. No teacher was there to criticise or point out the right or the wrong. The first one was the he or she who did what came instinctively. They let it flow naturally. The did what felt right ... free from the criticism of others. Then down through the ages, as recognised styles developed ... it became more and more 'wrong' to express a 'free style' and it became more of the norm to have to paint exactly as it is taught or it is written in books.

It is exactly the same at times with mysticism. With clairvoyancy in particular. From bitter self experience I found the world of self development a world lacking in free styles. It is a world where the mystic is expected to follow the same road as all of those who have gone before. If he or she doesn't then they get 'shackles' tied to their ankles and they get criticised. They get operantly conditioned that they are 'not old enough' to read professionally; they cannot have the abilities they claim because they have not followed the pathway that has been apparently laid down as the only way to develop as a medium or a clairvoyant.

The same can be said with The Tarot. With Tarot card reading. The norm dictates that tarot cards must be studied intimately and their 'book readings' .... the 'norm' on what they mean and what they can 'only mean because so and so said so' ... learned parrot fashion. There appears no room or acceptance for freestyle anymore.

Remember, that which is written is only an opinion. It is only what someone else has interpreted what the image means. It doesn't make that meaning as being cast in stone. That first interpretation could have been wrong. It may have worked for the first person who created the image. The first who laid down the pathway at that time. It doesn't automatically mean it is right for each and everyone.

No. I walked away from the world of the Psychic Centre and the Spiritualist Church. There is no room for a freestyle mystic there. Freestyle Mystic can read as a chaos magician, but I don't really care. I have methods which I have developed ... the 'first painter' syndrome in other words ... methods which work extremely well for me. Methods which have reaped uncanny accuracy time and time and time again. Methods I do not force on others because I visualise we manifest in a freestyle world. Each and every one of us has freewill and the right to self expression. In that freestyle world we are all entitled to our own self expression.

Applying this therefore to my freestyle method of divination. To my long sojourn as the 'professional tarot reader' ... I have a deep respect for the 'book meanings' of the tarot images. I respect the subconscious images which are contained within the tarot. I do not begrudge anyone who read the tarot in that way ... but for me I interpret the tarot differently. I find the way which is right for myself .. for my own self expression. It is from this slant that I practice divination. I respect therefore that there will be many experienced tarot readers out there ... who will view my Daily Merlin insights and obtain completely different meanings to what appears in the workings. It does not mean what I have seen is wrong. Remember thus that the primary use of the Tarot is as a key to open the door to the super conscious part of the psyche. It is an aid and a springboard ... nothing more. Tarot is designed as the means to access the altered states of consciousness ... this is why I use the tarot ... as the means to the end like the key to open the door. They are not the end result. They are but the start, the beginning of the projection. They are thus my connection between this world and the others ...

Dear Spiritual Diary - "Revived Service"

 Well that was quite a week!

Besides a regular returning fraternity of clients, there were several interesting encounters this week.

Thursday - a returning UK client from 2018 heralded some very intriguing and accurate connections. A rowdy grandmother from 'the other side of life' and her "estranged partner" (Grandfather) visited to ask the client to take care of their daughter (Her Mother). A direct Aunt from the other side insisted that everyone had to be called by their first names. So the client was given the names of each and every family member who was contacting her, plus the names of family members on the earth plane.

The rather forward Aunt was adamant I was not to be "subtle as a brick" with my information. However I was soon in trouble as I did what I always do, say it say it was with no around the houses; with the client's permission of course. 

It was good to back to the 'old ways' with no divination cards required for the hour long booking. 

Saturday Morning - after a regular early morning slot for a regular Australian client needing intuitive couselling, an returning client from 2017 (One of the last face to face Australian clients prior to the move back to the UK) and a Skype session I will not forget in a hurry.

Again direct communication with blunt information from a late Grandmother who gave her names - FIRST and LAST name. The last name was mighty a unusual name and she divulged it to me with a hand written note I saw in my mind's eye. Her information provided missing links for the client ... as unbeknown to me she was trying to complete her family tree.

There was 'the digger' who was in the 2nd war trenches who played football with the enemy on Xmas day and deliberately missed when firing his rifle as he did not want to kill anyone.

A reference to significant health problems with a family member and the likely outcome with regard to living arrangements which confirmed what the client had been anticipating.

Obtaining the full name of the lady on the other side of life was a special moment. 

 Saturday Afternoon - a detour from a planned shopping trip led me to the purchase of a crystal ball and and afternoon conversation with a  powerful fellow intuitive and reiki healer. Unfortunately , I left the encounter with the beginnings of a bad headache on my left side. Which I currently still have. The healer's partner has been recovering from a brain tumour and his energies were very much in her energy field. It seems I have taken on those energy traits. 

Notice to self to clear my energy field and get rid of this blasted headache.

So yes it was a week with a difference last week!    

Instead of Chasing Happiness, Search the Darkness

 It’s not happiness that holds the solution to your problems; it is your pain.

Your pain, your darkness, your greatest fears and shadows are the doorways toward your spiritual enlightenment.

Within the cobwebs, the dust, the dirt, the dank and rancid confines of your deepest pain, is the key to everything you’ve been searching for.

But most of us don’t understand that the only way around pain is through the pain.

Our age-old conditioning whispers in our ears that happiness can only be found when we improve this bit of ourselves, change that person, move to this place, get that job, reach this age, obtain that degree … and on and on, ad infinitum.

And there is a certain addictive quality to playing the happiness game. There’s always a new thrill to pursue, a new drama to play out, a new thing to obtain. Quite simply, the pursuit of happiness gives you something to do, so it makes you feel like you’re spending your time meaningfully.
In fact, most of our behavior is driven by the drive to chase happiness.

We chase the “ideal” relationship because we feel it will complete us. We chase higher-paying jobs and more money because we believe it will bring us more comfort and security which we believe will give us happiness. In wealthy countries, we buy things we don’t need which we believe will make us happy.

But once we reach or obtain what we’ve been pursuing, what happens? How long do we remain happy? Sure, we may feel happy for a week, a month, or even a single moment. But then the feeling passes, and we’re on the treadmill again, peddling frantically for the next “source” of happiness.

And the sad thing is that we often enter this exhausting rat race completely unconsciously and impulsively....<<<Read More>>>...

Reducing Self-Judgment

 Imagine a day when you realize how every single step along your path (regardless of how much the ego had programmed you to judge yourself for it) was and is a perfect and sacred co-creation with God. When you take some time to look back at your past, you can see how all of your experiences have helped you become the more mature and self-aware person that you are today. Now, imagine having the vision of God and knowing that all decisions and experiences (past, present and future) are designed to help you understand your true eternal loving essence and nature. What further need for judgment of self and others would you have if you understood that God uses all for good? Imagine being able to see each and every step along your path as a gift that you offered yourself to help you reach a higher level of consciousness. If every step along our path has helped us, in one form or another, become more peaceful, joyful, compassionate and forgiving, would you not call that a successful journey? Now, with the gift of time, we can see how our so-called  ‘mistakes,’ ‘sins,’ or ‘errors’ actually offered us some of our greatest growth opportunities, life lessons and wisdom. If we can be at peace with that, because of our better understanding of our past, can we not also have peace now, knowing that our present experiences will offer our future-self these same gifts? Understanding the useful nature of each moment helps us de-programmed ourselves from our own judgments. With this clarity, we can begin to see each moment as perfect, sacred and good. As our understanding of the nature of our journey increases, our judgments decrease. Now, we no longer need to judge ourselves as less than or not good enough. Now, we no longer need to judge others for the part they played in our awakening....<<Read More>>>...

Unleashing Your Multidimensionality: Parable of Lao Tzu and the Dragon

[Waking Times]: What does it take to open up enough to activate and animate this Universal Torus?

Belief that it’s possible is essential. But belief by itself is not nearly enough. It has to do with the art of transcendence. You’re drawn through life by the possibility that there’s something much greater than what you witness merely on the surface. Through deep meditation and challenging the limitation of the bodymind ego, you start to unfold into the quantum field, from which all crystallises. This is totally magical when you start to experience it in the beginning – random acts of divine magic manifest around you in life.

It’s so awe inspiring, that at first, you can’t quite convince yourself that you’re actually doing it. That is until it starts happening plentifully, and you witness it adjoining the times where you have really opened up.

When you hit this point, the likelihood is that you’ll experience the realisation that centering and embodying yourself in the quantum field is the place to really be in life – the only place to be! This is the field of truth, where the crystallisation of it so often leads to limiting distortion. What if you could simply live in this divine flow? ...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Censorship is the New Front in the War on Consciousness

[Waking Times]: At its core, consciousness is the awareness of being aware. Which is extraordinarily relevant to today’s conversation about the internet censorship being openly carried out by big tech and big government.

You see, when looking at this from the microcosmic level, that is, exploring of the vastness of the inner worlds, increasing consciousness is about digging deep with open eyes to uncover the forces, drivers, baggage, patterns, and programming that influences one’s self. It’s about untangling all of this in order to evolve into one’s highest potential.

Extrapolating this to the macrocosmic, the adage ‘as above, so below – as within, so without,’ is key.

When looking at the outer world with the aim of expanding our consciousness of it, we must also dig deep with open eyes. We must sideline the fear inherent in this sort of exploration, and allow many friendly and unfriendly truths to sink into one’s awareness of the world around us. In order to make the best choices for ourselves, this view must be as broad and as complete as possible....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

A Simple Process You Can Use To Stay Calm & Present Throughout The Day

[Collective Evolution]: Do you notice yourself feeling tense shoulders? A cleansed jaw? Perhaps you’re holding your breath in some ways and you don’t even know it?

Maybe you feel a clenched tummy from time to time and have tricky digestion. You might notice yourself rushing through life, tasks, wanting to get to the next thing. You may not be paying full attention to your life and everything feels like autopilot.

If this is the case, you’re not alone.

This is a very calm state of being for most people in highly developed countries who are living the ‘average everyday life.’ You wake up, go to your job, work all day, come home and then either veg out or spend time with family and go to sleep. This is the ‘modern life’ that we have accepted as ‘ a good life’ and yet almost every aspect of it presents a challenge to our health and well being. But, at this time, money is required to live our lives, and so we must play within this system in some way or another as we actively change it.

The good news is, you have ultimate freedom within yourself to perceive your reality as you wish to perceive it. When we are unconscious, or allowing our programmed states of being to run our lives, we typically move through life on autopilot, moving from one habit to another. However, when we begin to gain presence, and pull ourselves out of all these unconscious habits, we begin to gain some freedom back. This builds over time...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Questions of our Time – Time Now to Get Back to Ourselves?

[Waking Times]: As human beings we seek the beautiful, and this gives us joy. But our lives have made everything complicated. We make ourselves complicated – life is being played around us like a game.

This may not sound comfortable, or even correct, to some people. If it’s a game, then why is there so much sorrow and pain? This is the perennial question.

Yet like a game, we have choices, and we make our moves. And there are players and gameplays going on all around us. And it seems that the game is rigged. One person who knew this well was Alan Watts. He often spoke about how life should not be lived as a fast journey and that existence in the universe should be recognized as being basically playful.

Life is more like music, Watts used to say. And we play music – we don’t ‘work’ music. And in music, the end of the composition is not the point of the composition; otherwise, all conductors would play fast; or some composers would choose only to write the finales. We don’t go to concerts just to hear the final chord being played. We don’t engage in a dance in order to end it (unless we got tricked into it!)....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Take Control of Your Moods

[Wake Up World]: Have you ever experienced a time in which you were feeling absolutely amazing, and then for no apparent reason your mood drastically changed and you became highly annoyed or frustrated?

You must have wondered what caused this about-face to occur for no apparent reason. Perhaps you just chalked it up to hormonal changes or a lack of a good night’s sleep.

Though good reasons, could there be additional explanations as to why your emotions seem to have a mind of their own from time to time?

Maybe it’s time to discover how you feel right now via personal observation....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Are You a Wallflower or a Trailblazer?

[Wake Up World]: Imagine that you have died. You find yourself suddenly looking at your life reel. This movie-like presentation shows you everything you have ever experienced on Earth in your life.

In your hyper-expanded state of awareness, you see themes connecting certain experiences with others. You notice that one of the major themes is that of rejection…a rejection of new travels into the unknown.

You realize that you have been making decisions out of fear and choosing to stay within the sphere of familiarity. When offered new opportunities to step out of your comfort zone, you chose to not take the big leaps. You come to understand that you lived your life as a wallflower.

Fear manifests as anxiety when you have low self-esteem. That low feeling of self-worth is picked up on by others and creates discordance in your energy, as well as others you are interacting with, resulting in feelings of tension and awkwardness. This outcome further pushes you into feeling like you want to stay retreated as much as possible, to avoid the uncomfortable feelings it brings you....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>...

How to Wake Up to Who You Really Are

[Wake Up World]: Most people are sleepwalking through life. They either identify solely with this 3D reality or they believe in a vague sort of afterlife that is given to them if they behave well enough while they are alive.

To wake up to who you really are, you need to go within and stop focusing so much on the external.

Even some “spiritual” people are not aware of what their true essence is. Enlightenment doesn’t come from reading books or chanting mantras…it comes from Self-realization.

What is Self-realization? It is the awakening of the awareness that you really are a Source fractal using a physical avatar as a way to interact with the densest plane of Reality. You are in a simulated universe that is a playground for experiential existence and soul evolution. While you definitely have a body, you are not your body....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

A Respite From Interactions With The Other Worlds

Pre-2017, life was frantic, stressful, competitive and very difficult. Every day was a full on challenge. There was no respite from the constant stream of human beings requiring an interaction with the other worlds, for guidance and insight and comfort.

It was tiring, and life force draining.

Then life spun itself on a five pence piece, and everything changed. A permanent return back to the Northern Hemisphere after a fifteen year absence.

There was new challenges, and new pressures. Very little progress was made on the intuitive and guidance front. It didn't need to; for a respite was required. Implemented by the higher forces that have foraged the path for the last fifty plus years.

Life is now spent with a recognised 'normal' trade; reminders of what was line bookshelves and fill drawers. Several 'established' still have regular times for guidance; but the public displays, and the daily stream of faces, have ceased. For now. But for how long?

Days are spent observing and witnessing. Connections with higher forces are still there; feeding the conscious mind with constant input on what, where and when. But mindfulness and the observant mind keep it all in check.

Some new directive will come some day soon. But it still feels strange not to be in the competitive, tiresome and energy zapping 'psychic industry' any more. Excursions into social media reveals that nothing has changed in the 'show pony arena' ... and it never will. What a relief to be out of it; but also the regret  that it's no longer part of life. It had been for so long ... and this respite is difficult, But higher forces dictate ... and will open those doors again when they have a need. Which they will. But its current 'dangerous times' to be making regular interactions with the other worlds ... its the right time to lie low - Matthew James

Navigating Difficult Emotions

[Collective Evolution]: "Each of our feelings or attitudes, no matter how negative, can evoke compassion and lead to transformation. 

We then joyfully realize how every negative experience has positive, growth-fostering potential, how every liability is a resource, how every shadow trait has a kernel of value, how every disturbance or mistake can deepen our spiritual consciousness . . . there is an energy of light frozen in our confusion, a luminosity we can release, if only we do not give up our mining.”—Dave Richo, Ph.D.

Positive emotions satisfy the immediate gratification style of modern culture. They pay dividends right away. We try to keep up with pleasure, joy, and bliss in their ever-more-enticing forms. Difficult emotions, however, take patience, and require delayed gratification. The result of this gratification is a deeper sense of fulfillment that can’t be gained by direct experience with positive emotion...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

How To Awaken From The Matrix Using Self-Enquiry

[Waking Times]: Self-enquiry, or self-inquiry, is a practice popularized in the west by the circulation of nondualist teachings from the renowned Indian sages Ramana Maharshi and Nisargadatta Maharaj.

It requires no faith in any teacher, teaching or tradition, nor even in the practice itself. Self-enquiry is a method for inquiring for yourself into your own nature and discovering in your own firsthand experience what lies at the end of that investigation.

Most of our suffering and confusion stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the way our experience is actually happening. Partly due to culture, partly due to language, and partly due to the fact that we begin life as helpless little things at the mercy of an often terrifying world, we develop mistaken notions about ourselves, about our minds, and about the world, and we form conditioning patterns around those mistaken notions. Self-enquiry works to correct those fundamental errors and habits of perception, which allows for the possibility of a serene mind and an efficacious way of functioning.

Self-enquiry is a practice that you can engage in all day, every day, to whatever extent that you’ve got attention at your disposal for the endeavor. You can do it at work, while driving, while eating, in the shower, whenever. There are many different approaches to the practice, but here's a useful way, broken down into its five distinct steps...read more>>>.....
