A Facebook Challenge

I joined Facebook several years ago at the suggestion of my daughter who proposed it as a way to keep up with my grandchildren.  In addition to keeping up with my growing family I have reconnected with scores of people with whom I lost touch over the years and for this, I am quite grateful.  I do, however, find many people are using social media as a means of public communication.  The communication is frequently very helpful, amusing, or down right funny. However, a day does not go by when I do not experience the energy of mass hysteria.  I read or hear posts exhorting about moral, political, and social problems.  Day after day, month after month.  

In the duality of our physical lives, we really only have Love or Fear.  The Fear I experience in social media has many names but it is really just Fear.  The Facebook posts I read run the gamut of complaints about our president, complaints about the Republicans, complaints over health care, complaints about illegal immigrants, and now complaints about disease.  Much energy is expended complaining, blaming, and accusing.  To what end?  Aside from venting the energy of fear, is anything really changed?

The energy of the world we live in today is very challenging to those living in Fear.  But it is not just happening now.  Historically, we have never existed apart from challenging times, which lead to fear, to war, to hunger, and even to near extinction of the world as it was known.  Remember world history?  To those who turn to their bibles, maybe it is time to revisit the passages when God's wrath created upheaval in the world.  If we really take a look, we will find comparable instances and similarities to our current situation.  The only difference is that we are experiencing the illusion of upheaval instead of our ancestors.  

I believe it is time for all to really go inward.  Take a look at our religious or spiritual beliefs.  Measure our beliefs about Jesus, Buddha, God, or whichever Divine Being with which we resonate against how we are reacting to current events.  In Spirit, the only energy that exists is Loving.  If the actions we take come from a place of Fear then we are not serving the greater good.  If we are not part of the solution, we are part of the problem.  I challenge any and all who feel they must do something, please do something that promotes Love and Loving!  Blessed Be!!!

Namaste.

Time Keeps On Slipping, Slipping Into The Future - No It's Not!

Well, I figured out long ago that there is no time or space in Spirit and now I am actually living in that no time or space dimension.  I have been aware of this time-less-ness for quite a while but have not really considered the fact that it is a "place" or more accurately "state" of being.

First, a catch up.  I spoke at the Brigade of Light in Fort Wayne and it went just as it should.  I think it is more appropriate to say that Spirit spoke through me, but, either way, all went well.  I am frequently aware of Spirit (God) speaking through me but I have never really owned it publicly.  Or at least, I cannot recall if I have.

Last weekend I shared with  my spiritual group that I really do know a lot, that this knowing has led to my going into my Ego, and thus interfered with my spiritual path.  I also shared that I hesitate to share what I know because I don't want to appear as though I am in my Ego.  Hmmmm, wonder whether or not that is because I have been in my Ego.  Hah!  Spirit does like to play tricks, doesn't It?

Sharing this realization opened things up quite a bit this week.  I am now consciously aware that I spend most of my unoccupied "time" or being-ness, in the spirit realms (aka 5th dimension) in one sense or the other.  One recent development I notice is I will "lose" an object, search and search the house or car for the lost object, the object is gone to the point where I just release it, and then it turns up exactly where I had looked for it.  Instead of thinking I am going crazy, I realize that the lost object and I just have not been in the same dimension for that period of time.

Another interesting realization is an awareness that time does not seem to exist for me now even when I am "in the world".  I was working on Tuesday and was certain all day that it was Saturday.  I frequently have to stop and think what day of the week it is and my days pretty much run into each other.  Another time in my less "conscious" life, I would have become increasingly worried about such an incident.  Especially since dementia and Alzheimer's are part of my family medical history.  In truth, though, I believe my mother (the most recent Alzheimer's patient in my family) and I really are going through similar things, but she is not consciously aware of that which is moving in and through her spiritually.

As I release more and more of the world, I find I know more and more of Spirit.  That is my Present, as I have no Past or Future...

Namaste!
