We use a metaphor that says that there are “higher” levels of existence, dimensions, and such. But that view obscures an important aspect of what I’ve noticed. Whenever I’ve delved into the Self or dived into love or bliss, the experience for me has been (A) one of going deeper, not higher, and (B) almost […]
Life is Less a Courtroom and More a Gymnasium
I’m seeing that a happy life requires us to eliminate our patterns that don’t work and refuse from then on to harm ourselves or other people. As we peel back the layers of the onion, we uncover our basic happiness and innocence, always there but hidden. That’s why the love in our hearts is so […]
A Return to Normal: Have We Explored It?
Can you see the trend of where my own journey of “reparenting,” my Ascension ethnography is going? Well, from my perspective, where it’s headed is a return to normal. Remember the enlightenment intensive where I cleared an absolutely-mammoth vasana or core issue, only to find myself feeling … blissed out? No. Filled with love? No. […]
What Awaits Us
In the course of other research, I came across this discussion with Archangel Michael from late 2017. It answers my question, what lies beyond the planetary heart opening, which is happening gradually as we speak? His reply was very informative. I’m not completely sure if he was talking to me only or to all of […]
Both Sides of the Veil and All the Dimensions
A friend came over who doesn’t like the language of Ascension. So I put the matter to her in what I hoped were good Buddhist terms. According to me, Ascension in Buddhist terms is nirvana, buddhahood, escape from the wheel of birth and death. “Nirvana,” like the Christian term, “heaven,” refers to the Fifth Dimension […]
Fantastic Voyage
We invite you most lovingly to make a monthly or one-time donation to the expenses of the team. See below for details. Vasanas go deep, deep, deep. Nevertheless, the Self is to be found in a deeper recess of the heart than the vasanas. I use the term “seat of the soul” as its location, […]
Archangel Michael: Knowing the Heart is the Essential Work
What is the heart anyways? I’m talking about breathing love up from the heart. What does the Company of Heaven say about where love can be found? Archangel Michael tackled my questions on the subject on Dec. 5, 2018, in a personal reading through Linda: Archangel Michael in a personal reading with Steve Beckow through […]
“Our Code Word is Victory”
I’m reviewing my readings with Michael and find myself wafted along by the inspiring things he’s saying. May I flow with it? In 2011, Michael commented: “Yes, we know that this is a time when all the shenanigans are being put out to play. But our code word is victory and it is not victory […]
A Note to Myself: Deepen into the Experience
I know who I am. What? Am I waiting for the Mother to have to do the job a second time? No. I need to deepen into the experience that I’ve already had. Is that not the meaning of all the parables of seed being given to sons. The one who planted it and cultivated […]
Dawning Awareness
It’s 4 am. I’m awake and I’m torn between going back to sleep and writing this down. Something tells me I should bite the bullet and write it down. If I were to summarize how I feel after having briefly experienced the Self, I’d say I feel freer, freed up, released. Freer in every respect. […]
Experience Dissipating
I read you some passages from the enlightenment literature which described the experience I had at Xenia. (1) That experience is now lifting. I’d like to explore those passages in more depth here, especially on the impermanence of spiritual experiences, what Werner Erhard once typified as “get it and lose it, get it and lose […]
Never Expected It
What I wanted to report today was that I now see the attraction of asceticism to the desert fathers. I think it was all about coming to total stillness and silence. I don’t think they would have thought that, in that stillness and silence, the Self would be known. (1) I don’t think they thought […]
I Now Know How the Play Ends
I had a reading with Archangel Michael Sept. 21. Of the experience he said: “The challenge has been (and you have recently gone through this and this is why we are talking about it) to come to know yourself the way the Mother knows you, the way the Mother trusts you, the way the Mother […]
Archangel Michael Explains What Happened at Xenia
I create my readings schedule with Linda at the end of each year for the next year. So having a reading on Sept. 21 was planned last December and the trip to Xenia was only planned since the middle of this month. So no coincidence! Here’s how Archangel Michael described the experience. I found his […]
Original Innocence
First of all thank you to MB for having so generously treated me to a vacation. I very much needed it and it was wonderful. On the last day … the last morning … a few hours before leaving Xenia Retreat Centre on Bowen Island near Vancouver, I had the breakthrough I’d been hoping for. […]
