More Changes

Did you know, there are changes coming up for everyone now very soon.

I have mentioned this before but we must face the facts - the polar ice caps are going to continue to melt, albeit at a varying rate. This is not because of mankind's activities so much, though scientifically speaking it can certainly be traced to that.

There is another factor involved here. We as human beings are using more and more water in different ways these days. There are those looking for alternate fuels and water when broken down into its component parts has looked good to many. And there are other actions using water that does not allow the water to be recycled, as we understand it. So - there's more to it.

Mother Earth is also clearing some more land for us since there are many of us and we must live somewhere. Oh it's true that the global temperature will go up as a result and of course they'll be more rain because they'll be more moisture but this does not have to be such a bad thing.

I know it may at times with various predictions look to be somewhat glum and there's no doubt that low-lying islands may have some problems but it's also a fact that there are places on the land on various continents and other places where the people can be - so please make room for them.

Mother Earth intends to provide us with what we need but I have been guided that she would like us to do something and it may not always be popular. She would like us to have less children. We all love children of course and they are precious and perhaps when there are fewer of them by natural loving processes then they will be treasured as they ought to be - but we must face the facts. There are a great many of us living on the planet now and it might be better if we could find a way to very gently reduce the population.

I would say that this can be done and it can be done gently. There are many ways and I believe you know of them. So lets support some of these ways and don't if you would, become intimidated by those who say you ought to have children or you must have children or if you don't watch out it's too late to have children and so on and on.

If you really want a child - alright - but if you are not desiring of that then it's alright. Other people will have them and perhaps you can be an auntie or an uncle and that could be just fine.

I am not speaking out against children for I treasure them as well, I am however saying it is alright for the population to be reduced in benign and benevolent and loving ways. I know we can do this and future generations are counting on us to do this so that Mother Earth will be available benevolently for us all.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

More On Our Pathway

It's easy to be judgmental isn't it. "How could she do that? How could he do that?"

We are all born with certain potentials and from that point on we are subject to influences and of course some people might say that fate plays a hand. Fate of course is a word that represents all that we don't know - but happens.

So when we look around and we hear things and we see things - sometimes small offensive things, sometimes annoyances - even if we feel that there may be some reason, there is a difficulty not judging it isn't there.

And so, what about the big things? It's so easy isn't it to say, "How could he do that! How could she do that!" And yet, what would you have done if you were born with that potential, if you were thrust into that influence, if you were exposed to this or that.

You know, I feel that this place - this planet is a place that Creator has decided to see - what if. I do not feel that we are somehow dangling at the end of Creator's strings with Creator jerking us this way or that way. I feel we are all volunteers.

Granted - if we knew what was going to come in our lives we may not have volunteered for this but souls are innocent and spirits, as we all are, do not recall nor do we understand the implications of former lives or for that matter of the experiences of others.

When we are not here on this planet we do not experience pain. We do not experience suffering. This place is the school that teaches what can be done and what are the results when one does what is perhaps better not to do. This school is not a place of punishment as I've said before - this is a finishing school for those spirits and souls who want to go on from here to create in a more responsible position.

Think about it - parents create and they are then presented with the results of their creation so that they must continue to create and to bring about the best possible life they are able for their children.

Of course the children arrive with certain potentials and even if you are the best parent in the world your child goes out, is exposed to life and the slings and arrows that come about as the result of life. So you do the best you can, that's all you can do.

I'm bringing this up today because I feel that it is so easy to fall into a pattern of judging what others do - not necessarily putting ourselves into their shoes. Even if we discount that they are different, that they've been exposed to things that are different - put yourself in their shoes - what would you have done.

I have spoken before here and other places about the difference between discernment and judgment and as a result of that I feel that it is important now to move past judging and blaming because if we judge and blame it is so easy to overdo it isn't it.

It's so easy to say, "Well, he is one of those and he did that so maybe they're all like that. So whatever we do it's alright because they're all that way and they deserve it."

Now I realize that has a cartoonish quality to it but it is really the distilled version of the rational that is used to sell wholesale violence to large groups of people who might perpetuate it.

We are coming into times now where what is required of us is co-operation. The world is reforming culturally. Yes, it will be first on the business model or the corporate model and we may not like that at times. On the other hand it will be, over time and not a long time at that, remodeling itself into one whereby people are served with heart not just directed through head and will.

I haven't spoken too much about the will here but I will address that in the future. The will has gotten a great deal of - how can we say...praise in our time - meaning, "I didn't think I could do it but I drove myself to it, I willed myself to do it and I got it. I achieved it."

I recall a time when will was looked upon a different way but I am not here to blame. I am here to say that judgment can keep us apart very often from that which we desire. Discernment does not do this so much and yet there are occasions when those who step in a destructive pathway must be separated from those who need to be protected. We all know this - the proverbial bull in a china shop - yes - but there are means, manners and ways.

We are all evolving to a more heart centered sense of values. It's not as simple as it once was. We can't just all go out into the forest and be reminded what nature is since the forest is disappearing to make room for so many of us here who need the room to live. Now we're coming into a time when we must come into our hearts through exposure to each other and recognize that very often the animals, the trees, the bushes, the plants - otherwise known as the natural beings here on this planet - will be able simply by their ways to demonstrate how to get along in the best possible way with others given the circumstances of life.

I feel that the changes we are about to enter as a global society will bring us closer together and I also feel that many of us will have opportunities - truly magical moments in the next few years that will change us - as that forest is not going to be present - then those magical moments will come from a person or two people or more and they will not be destructive, they will not be willful, they will not be commanding or demanding.

They will bring us into our hearts and it will happen with others around so that we feel our hearts and thus can find our way once more in the most benevolent way on our pathway to becoming a global benevolent society. Watch for it - it's coming.

Goodlife.

The Heart Of Travel

Do you ever travel to lands beyond your own? It is natural isn't it to notice how the people are different.

Sometimes one appreciates the differences, other times they just make you uncomfortable - and of course then when you get home what was once annoying appears to be comforting.

I'm going to recommend that you seek out the heart of cultures that you visit whether they be in your country or beyond and the way to do this is always through the food. Don't look so much for the modern leading edge food of those who experiment but try the cafeterias and the small restaurants that serve the people the foods that they like and that they were raised with.

Try only what feels good to you and what generally draws you towards it. In this way you will be able to experience the true heart of the people for in the true heart there is food and there is love. One cannot often connect with the true love of peoples that you visit in other countries but by this means it can be helpful.

I would recommend in order to prepare yourself for such a journey that you say the following Living Prayer. You might say, "I am asking that my experience in the foreign lands I visit or the cultures from afar that I attend in my own country be benevolent and nurturing for me and allow me to appreciate the value in these other expressions of life."

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Take Another Look. Is It Really True?

Energy is our natural native state of being. Did you know that - I feel many of you do. It is not natural for us to be in these bodies in which we occupy which automatically tells us that we are here to learn something.

We are here, I feel, to learn compassion for all beings who are physical. Each other yes of course but also animals, plants and all manner of creatures - large or minute on this planet. Compassion as I've said before is a great lesson for us all. It is something that we take for granted in our natural state of being when we are not on this planet and it is something that is a portion of life that is also taken for granted almost everyplace else.

Why then, you might reasonably ask, are we so challenged in our day to day life here. Why is it such a struggle? Are we being punished? No, I know that's not it.

We are learning. We are learning what is added, what is subtracted and what is blended in order to make the best result.

One of the ways this is learned is to make mistakes. Mistakes are often regretted by us or others aren't they - and yet it is a way to learn. Lets pay attention to history. Lets not simply turn a blind eye to it because we don't like it or we don't like the outcome that we are living with. Lets not assume that if some peoples have made mistakes against our kind, as we might say, or others like us that they are inherently at fault including all succeeding generations.

Lets automatically assume, as we are all human beings while we are here, that that was a human error and as human beings we are most definitely available to make the same error. Prejudice is such a difficult thing isn't it. Sometimes so very seductive - even in ways that we come to believe are not associated with prejudice.

This is sometimes referred to in the word truisms - meaning things that are so much believed to be true that regardless of evidence to the opposite are accepted as true.

Take a look at your life. Are you practicing in your attitudes any truisms. If you are, take another look. Is it really so? Are other people so really different from you?

In my experience we are all so very much alike even though we have had different experiences and our lives have been shaped in different ways. At our root of being, physically of course, we are alike and in this way we can find our way home to each other. Think about it and add what you'd like.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

More On Recreating Your Life

There is a place on the planet now - it is not on the surface of the planet. It is below the surface and below a particularly well known place where magnetism is affected.

This place is burgeoning in its capacities to recreate - but it is not Earth's job to recreate our culture, that's our job. If you're considering, when you look at your life, that there are aspects of your life that you would like to recreate - you can be supported in that if you tap into this region.

The region is about 40 miles under the surface of the North Pole. It's not directly under that general area but it's near there and it is an energy that is held in reserve. It's not broadcasted at this time. That's because it's waiting for you, whoever you may be, to tap into it.

Here's what to do: If you can, either stand or sit - it's either way, face towards the North where you are. Reach out with your left hand. Have your palm aligned with the center of your body and as if you were going to shake hands with someone. Say the following words.

First say, "I am asking that all those benevolent energies that are available for me insulate and protect me now so that I receive only the energy that is available to help me to recreate my life in the most benevolent way." Wait about a minute - it can be a little less than a minute, it can be a little more than a minute but not too much either way.

Then say this, "I am now receiving all of the recreation energy that is available for me in the most benevolent way." And continue to hold your arm out straight - towards the North.

If there are a lot of man-made materials between you and the direction your hand is aimed, try to aim your hand more towards the sky. That will help, so that it will lessen the effect of the man-made materials - for you see that energy is available above ground as long as you are keyed into it specifically using these methods.

Wait about a minute and a half after you've welcomed that energy - then you may relax your arm and see if you can be quiet for about 5 minutes, as quiet as is available to you. If the area is noisy you can plug your ears or use earplugs. If the area is quiet then just sit quietly with your hands in your lap, that is the best. Try not to think.

Wait about 3 days and then begin to take action in some benevolent way to recreate your life. That's what I recommend.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

More On Moving Past Judgement

Have you ever noticed that you say something critical of someone and then before you know it you find yourself in the same position having to either do what they did or having to solve the problem they faced in some other way. It's kind of amusing most of the time when that happens but it also points out an important fact.

For a long time many of you have been reading here and there and all over the place how the world is changing, how feminine energy is rising yes - and how we're moving on to another expression of Earth yes - and other variations on that.

One of the ways you can tell though, and provide yourself with evidence that that is so much the fact is how much the intensity level has been raised to bring our lessons to us.

Do you know that very often, not always but very often the things we criticize the most in other people are the things we either dislike about ourselves or the things that we dislike that are going on in our immediate environment. The fact that so much of this is coming up for so many people right now is an illustration of the fact that we are hurrying up to finish our lessons by having them right in front of us or with us all the time.

I know that you do not like to have your lessons in your face over and over and I sure don't either but here's something I recommend. Pay attention to when you are judging or criticizing others.

Is your criticism or judgement based on the fact that you have done what they were attempting to resolve - that you have done it in some better way or is it simply because you are criticizing the outcome of the solution they applied?

So - homework, next time you're ready to give criticism be prepared not only with what you have to offer as a solution but also be prepared to face the music if your criticism is not received in the best way. I am not here to be the psychologist for I am not that nor am I here to provide professional therapy and you're not coming to me for that. Rather you are here to consider the options and perhaps find a suggestion or two.

Here's a suggestion, I recommend that you sharpen up your discernment. Know what is for you and accept that things, even things that you may not necessarily wish to do or participate in - that those things may be for others.

So - recommendation, take a good hard look at the definition of judgement. Then consider that discernment isn't involved in judging. It's more involved in experience.

I know I've talked about discernment before here and here for example but it's so important now. It's because we're rushing to complete our lessons - a clear sign that something is getting ready to shift on Earth and I believe to something more benevolent.

Well, I know that's a refresher but it's coming up for so many of us these days I thought I'd bring it up again.

If you'd like a little thing you can say for yourself then this is what I recommend. You might say, "I am asking that I feel in my body when I am judging others so that that uncomfortable feeling will remind me that I can simply recognize that people solve things in their own way as best they can and I also am asking to recognize in my body by my feelings my awareness of what is for me and what is for others and to feel comfortable with that, knowing that I'm safe and that my world can be safe and comfortable and I can allow others to have their worlds."

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Helping...Even At A Distance

Do you know that there is something you can do for people who are trapped, hurt or crying out for help.

There will be times when some of you who are very sensitive out there will feel a very light sense of touch. Not the kind of touch if some friend or someone you know touches your arm or your hand. This will be a very light touch but it will be discernible physically.

When you feel something like that it almost always means that someone is crying out to the world at large or praying for help and you can help too.

This is what to do: For those of you who can feel or send energy just feel it and let it radiate from you.

For those of you who are not sure whether you can do that or not then I recommend you say the following Living Prayer. Say it slowly and if you feel a good energy or a good feeling, pause and when that feeling passes continue with the rest of the words. This is what I recommend you say, "I am asking that all those beings who need help now wherever they may be and whatever they may be doing - that they receive all the help they need now benevolently from all those people and beings who can help them."

After you say that you'll know that you have done what you can do. Don't ever assume that this is somebody you know, most of the time it will be someone you don't know - possibly even on the other side of the world and if you feel a touch like that again most likely it is not about the same person, it will simply be about another person.

We are all so closely united these days that it has impacted us physically and now there is something you can say and do to help people that need your help.

I know there are other things that you do and many of those are good. There's lots of wonderful charities and organizations to volunteer at but this is something you can also do if you would.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

When The Right Words Elude You...

When you find yourself in a situation where tact is important you often find don't you, that the right words are hard to come by. Sometimes words that you've said before work just fine. Other times you can feel, can't you, that those words just won't do.

I have found that at these moments it can be helpful - not always but at times - for there to be a benevolent energy present. I'm sure you found this to be the case as well.

You might say a little prayer, you might ask that someone or something be present with you in spirit to help you through that moment. I want to suggest a living prayer that often works in this situation.

I recommend you say in this situation, since you may have to say it to yourself quietly of course or even think it - in this case it's alright - say or think, "I am asking that all those benevolent beings (and if you have a Deity you feel good about, put that name in here) come now in their most benevolent form and provide love, inspiration, calm and a feeling of benign and benevolent co-operation and friendliness that this now state of being be comforted."

Now you say, "...state of being..." because it includes you and you may not even know who else it includes for the other person or persons may be upset about things you don't understand. Perhaps because many others are involved.

These times call for tact for many reasons. One of the most profound is that we don't always know whether the people we are speaking to understand the nuances of the way we speak. They might conceivably be speaking your language as something that is not their native tongue or because of so many dialects that exist in the world to say nothing of within your language.

It's so very easy isn't it, to say something that is a compliment from your point of view that might be taken as an insult to others. Perhaps you've had that experience - it's frustrating isn't it.

So remember, when you say that living prayer you're asking for energy to support you and to support the situation even though you may not have a clear picture of that situation at that point. Wait and see if you feel the energy. If you don't then perhaps it might be better to reserve your comment for another time.

If however you feel your comment may be pressing or urgent and possibly even life saving - then simply when you're at the point of pausing, after you've said the living prayer, wait for at least 1 minute if you can. Then say your comment in the simplest possible way with the fewest words possible and enunciate to the best of your ability. In this way, you will have made your best effort and that's all you can do. Then let it go and don't bring it up again if you can help it unless you feel at another time that it may be a life saving situation.

I'm bringing this up today because I feel that there are so many situations in which tact is not used simply because of a feeling of urgency or because in our world which has become so commercialized we are trying to find the best means of speaking, not just the best words. At times like that I've found that feeling and a good feeling broadcast by you can make a lot of difference.

So, add this to your general advice file and follow your heart. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Being Who You Really Are, Part 2

Now last time I talked about how it might be of value to project your true personality even in awkward or uncomfortable situations.

So, this time I want to give you specific suggestions and instructions for the homework. Not in front of a mirror, go ahead and say a few things out loud the way you might normally say them. Say in an awkward situation - say someone comes up to you at a bus stop and asks you out in some way that's offensive, as many of you might be approached. Male or female, it happens - and at the very least it can be awkward if you're not attracted to the other person to say nothing of the fact that it's impolite because you don't know them and they don't know you. In that case you see, if that is so - or they might do so in an offensive manner - that happens.

You could simply get mad and yell at them but you don't know who they are or whether they are entirely of sound mind. So, this is what you do to practice in your homework, I'm going to give you a couple of lines and you can write a few more for yourself. The first line is, "Stand back." That's all. The second line is, "I am completely comfortable on my own." That's all.

You understand these are not necessarily things you would say to people but they are designed to bring out qualities within you.

Then I'm going to suggest that before you do your homework you ask to feel as much physical confidence, strength and sense of your own personality as possible. Then wait for a moment or two and see if you feel different physically. Remember you are alone doing this so nobody's watching, nobody's going to laugh. Then say the first line.

Remember that if you are in an actual situation like that your natural reaction is to be frightened or angry and it's alright up to a point to display that but the way to display it is with feeling, not with words you see. Words can be provocative to someone who might say something like that to you - make some wise crack or come-on you understand but with a certain amount of feeling, strength, confidence, self-assuredness - and those are feelings I want you to practice - then you can emanate certain qualities.

Now I grant that if you are strong, if you have physical capabilities to resist something like this or even in the case of something said in jest or even partially in jest, the best way to deflect it is to make a jest back perhaps but there are times when you don't feel like it. So - I'm suggesting that you write some lines for yourself. Very simple, things that you'd like to say. Practice those feelings of confidence.

I'm not suggesting that you go out and do this in public because this homework isn't intended to give you ways to defend yourself or to specifically give you ways to feel safe though I have produced a book on that subject.

What I do recommend is that you consider this to be confidence building. The whole point of this post and the last one is to be able to feel confident enough to demonstrate your own personality without a mask in awkward situations.

I may say more about this in time but I'm giving you this homework now so that you can work on it and if you know others following this blog or my other to help each other to practice in this way.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Being Who You Really Are, Part 1

Artificial - or otherwise known as put-on masks in our society are not unusual are they. Sometimes we can completely justify doing so. Other times we do so simply because we feel awkward or uncomfortable and we don our well practiced mask.

I'm bringing this up not to criticize or chide anyone but rather because so many of you have said to me over the years, "Where is my perfect mate? How can I find that person? Is there any chance that they might find me?"

When we don a mask even for a reason of safety we automatically place a veil over ourselves so that we cannot be seen. The mask in that sense is our suit of armor that allows us to feel safe or as safe as possible in whatever situation we're protecting ourselves - and I'm not saying that that's not justified at times but that mask also keeps us from being seen and appreciated.

I'm bringing this up because I want to suggest some homework for those of you who feel it may be of value to you and that is homework that has the intent to allow you to be seen in your actual personality so that your perfect mate might just be attracted to the real you as compared to a mask that you, after a time even in a long duration relationship, must drop out of simple exhaustion or boredom and thus follows confusion in your mates part.

What I recommend then is that the actual personality you have be something that needs to be strengthened - to have a confidence, to have a projection if you like of your personality that feels safe.

So this is what I'm going to suggest and it might sound very miniscule but I feel that it is something that we've been exposed to in thought but rarely do.

I know that a great many of you are interested in the theatrical and perhaps enjoy television or movies or other theatrical productions. Actors, in order to convince not only the audience but also the Producer and the Director or the casting person in order to get the role must be able to convince the watchers that they not only can perform their duties professionally but that they can actually be or live or function in a way that is perceived as the role they are playing.

They cannot - in order to be convincing even in front of the camera as compared to the stage production - they cannot be Actor's acting. They have to convince you, the audience, that they are not acting. Otherwise it is boring for you, even tedious.

You must be able as an Actor to draw the audience in whoever they are so that they believe that what's going on on the stage is real, or as real as you can make it, so that they can suspend their disbelief - that these are Actors performing on the stage during the time of the performance.

So what I'm going to suggest to you is that you practice. Do not practice initially in front of a mirror. Practice only in some room where you cannot be seen or heard generally speaking. I want you to practice, with feeling, saying things that you might have to say - even though you may never have to say them but in your mind that you might have to say in order to feel safe.

That mask, as it were, that you occasionally project to insulate and protect yourself and thus block a potential mate from seeing who you really are and worse - sometimes someone might even be attracted to that mask you see - and then after a time in your budding relationship with them you must drop that mask because it's exhausting to portray and you wish to be seen for yourself.

You want to enjoy the relationship and you want the person to enjoy you - who you are but you see if they were attracted to that mask then, well it's a problem for both of you.

So how can you portray yourself as yourself yes - as the Actor in that sense here in my analogy and be appreciated for who you are. That's why I'm recommending this homework. Act - the following ways. Say certain lines - set up certain lines to say for yourself.

If you want, you can write them down. These lines are not to be provocative. They are designed to be projecting self-assurance and confidence and with a certain amount of practice you might just be able to produce those feelings especially when there is no threat and no problem with projecting those feelings. I'll get into more details next time.

Goodlife.

Clearing The Air

Now you may wonder why I continue to go on on this blog about instinct and other things that I wax on about on a regular basis.

For one thing it has to do with the fact that I trust you. I know we haven't met and I know that we may have different ways but I trust that you are reading this and perhaps practicing some of it because you truly want to have a better happier life where things work more frequently than not and perhaps you'd like to improve the quality of life for others as well.

I am, you might say, investing in you. At this time in my life I feel inclined to invest in the world at large. Many of you will absorb some of this wisdom here and practice it in your own way and perhaps even pass it on to others. I want you to know now that much as I appreciate appreciation it is not critical to me that I receive it from you and it is also not critical that I be acknowledged.

I know, we all need and want that and I am no different however I feel strongly that this wisdom I'm passing on to you is so important that I don't want to stake a permanent claim to it. Granted the books are copyrighted and all of that but you may have noticed that I'm not copyrighting the blogs. That's because I want you to feel free to use it and to share it where you feel it will do the most good.

I'm not trying to talk you into its value. If you feel it's good for you and you want to share it with others, and those of you who teach - if you want to integrate it into your teaching, don't be shy - it's alright. So I felt that needed to be said by way of clearing the air okay.

So...now I've got a Benevolent Magic book coming down the pike, so to speak and you'll find that it has many things in it that I have not discussed here. The entire book is set up as what you might call an evolutionary system that will take you from the point of the heart warmth which I've discussed before through Benevolent Magic, Living Prayer and on to Disentanglement and beyond.

The entire point of the book is to help you to feel safe, secure, comfortable and feel capable for your meeting with life.

I believe you will like it and when the publisher has it ready to distribute I'll let you know here on this blog as well as on my others. So...that's what I wanted to say today - just clearing the air and talking more personally to you all.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

What Our Dreams Really Are

There is a time coming now that will be here very soon that will prepare us for the welcoming of parts of ourselves that have been missing for a time.

You know, when we're born here on this planet we don't as a rule remember who and what we are from all our other lives and all other life in the universe though I believe and I have been taught and have observed on the basis of my experience that sometimes bits and pieces of this recollection come through.

It comes through very often in dreams. Have you ever had that experience in a dream where you remember something that simply does not have any connection with your life whatsoever but it's a beautiful moment. It may be surrounded by other images that you're familiar with in your dream time but in that moment there's something beautiful, calm and peaceful and you have a recollection of it but you have a hard time pinning down what you saw or who was in it or have any recollection of seeing yourself in it.

In my experience it is possible to experience yourself as light. I've mentioned before having the experience of light above my head and actually being able to see from that light even though I'm just as physical as you are.

I believe that what occurs in our dream is that we see people in the dream and sometimes we identify with them because after all they are human beings and we're so engaged in the dream that we believe that we are one of them but I believe that we are in the form of light there and we can see.

We can identify with what we see and at times we are experiencing that identification with different beings in the dream. That's why the dream does not seem to have the linear time line that we live in our waking life.

This experience of dreams is what helps us to understand our physical lives here and most importantly helps us to understand in our immortal spirit the meaning of physical life here and how things can go wrong and more importantly, I believe, how things can be put to the right. Put to the right in this case simply means - made more benevolent.

In my intention of this blog which is about magic and about benevolence, putting things to the right in my expression today really means - how can we - with all of the inspiration available to us unconsciously in our dreams and consciously in our day to day life through our guides and angels and teachers - how can we put things to the right - in short how can we make our world more benevolent.

I believe it has everything to do with remembering who we are and where we're from. I also believe that why we're here has everything to do with our dreams. I believe we're here to learn and the teaching process goes on largely in our dream time since our dream time has to do and takes place in, since we're rooted to a physical world where everything is not perfect - therefore we have the images, the experiences, the feelings, everything in our physical body that's associated with, a world that needs a lot of help.

In short it needs a lot of benevolence and that benevolence is intended to come about through our ignorance that we have of our total immortal spirit in our conscious life prompted by our inspirations and perhaps a recollection of our dreams. Whereas in our unconscious lives where we are asleep in the deep dream state we are being supported and guided through the identification that we wake up with of the other people and beings in the dream so we can understand their feelings and their experience.

The more we know about dreams, I feel, the more we will understand that they are not always connected to our waking life. I believe that most of the time, not all the time but most of the time, they're connected to teaching that goes beyond our life here but that in order for that teaching to take place we must have a life here so that we have the images, experiences and feelings that can be incorporated in the teaching process.

I believe our life has everything to do with our immortal spirit and Creator's desire for us to become the best teachers and perhaps even guides someday.

This life means something and it means something beyond our conscious day to day existence. That doesn't excuse us from encouraging more benevolence and putting things to the right here but it does also incorporate the lessons in the world of our immortal spirit and for that we have to allow that world to prevail in our deep sleep.

So, lets not always assume that our dreams are always about our day to day life even though sometimes there are aspects there that are.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Practical Compassion

This is a time of great compassion. The Earth is at a point now where she can no longer take on our excess feelings or even the excess feelings of animals or plants.

While there are many people there are less by far animals and plants. Still people require more care since the animals and the plants are not here to learn anything, they are simply here to offer support and nurturance for us and guide us through inspirations when we are able to take them in.

Given that Mother Earth must now apply her compassion to herself and to heal her own body - this is why so many of us are becoming more compassionate.

Let me explain what I mean by that. Many of us have begun to feel the feelings of others - I have mentioned this before. This is not simply a momentary thing where we "feel for others" but at times we take on and process the feelings of others.

I feel it's very important for you to know that should you get momentarily upset and even in your rational mind you are unable to place a reason on that or the reason you have picked does not make sense - be aware that many times you will act out, get upset you understand, get frustrated beyond the point of the stimulation you are experiencing in that moment or generally feel excessively full of feeling for something that seems well beyond the stimulation of the moment.

Perhaps it is something theatrical that you normally feel moved by or that you normally find amusing but in this case you suddenly feel as if you need to cry - maybe you do cry or you laugh almost hysterically. At moments like that don't question your sanity, the moment will pass quickly.

What you are doing is - that there is someone - possibly near you within a hundred feet or so, possibly a member of your own family or friends - if so don't say anything to them about it, possibly someone you don't know and have never met but are simply within that hundred feet or so of you for whom you are releasing through this momentary processing some overwhelming feeling that for one reason or another they simply cannot process and when that moment passes, it might just be a few seconds - perhaps a few minutes or even a little longer, that will be that.

You may never process that for them again or anything for them again - they might be simply passing by on the street or driving by on the highway but it may come up again.

You may find that this is something that is annoying at times, at other times it will be just a minor annoyance. If however you know about this you'll recognize that that was a moment of passing compassion for which you do not know nor do you really need to know, if you understand this or have read this, what that was about.

Some of you have been having this for a long time. You are weeping the tears felt by peoples all over the world or you are laughing excessively for those who are unable to laugh for some reason - and all the feelings in between.

This is not an excuse to excuse some excessively destructive or self destructive behavior on your part for that is not what is going to happen. It will always be something that you can do safely. You will not suddenly burst into tears in some important meeting. You will not laugh hysterically in front of your children and scare them - it will not happen like that. It will always happen in moments where you can do something safely.

I just felt that you needed to know this now because Mother Earth's compassion is at her limits for how she can express and feel for us and she must express and feel for herself. Therefore we are taking on some of her work.

We are after all here to learn patience and compassion and a few other things as the human race that will enable us to be more wise, be - in time more stable and be yes - more loving on a practical physical level that nurtures and supports us all in the most benevolent way.

One of the ways to practice these things is to actually do it. Reading about it in articles like this is helpful but since you are having this experience now I felt it was important to bring this to your attention.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

More On Dreams

It has come to my attention that many people are needing to experience certain aspects of benevolence that are evasive now.

Have you noticed that dreams are more troublesome? This is because some individuals are reaching out into dreamworld to ask for help. So I want to give you a benevolent magic you can say that will support more calm dreams for you and also support those who need help so much they are unintentionally reaching into other peoples dream consciousness states to ask for help.

Now this is what to say - I recommend you say, "I request that I have comfortable and peaceful sleep and if I am needed to support other peoples lives that I be allowed to do so in the most benevolent way for me, resulting in the most benevolent outcome."

Now as you can see that is a benevolent magic for you but there's a follow up. Wait about 5 minutes after you say that - alright - then say the following living prayer - which you can say at any time that you have a dream that seems a bit unsettling even if you wake up in the middle of the night or if you recall it during the middle of the day.

You might say, "I am asking that all those beings all over the Earth receive all the help, love and support that they need now from all those beings and people who can help them." That's what I suggest. Work on it a bit over the weekend.

Goodlife.

Our Expanding Capabilities

In the beginning of this project where we all live now on Earth there was I believe, a co-ordinated effort to establish a beachhead for sorting out thought - feelings in the physical world. Not just to superimpose one over the other or to compete but rather to extract the best of both, combine them and turn out a hybrid human being who could think and know and feel and know simultaneously.

I feel that we are progressing very well on this project and I feel that even though we are surrounded by complicated technology, some of this technology helps us.

Granted, some of it is overwhelming and we will at some point turn away from it or it will become so automated and reliable that it will run largely by itself. However there is some technology that helps us to discover our true natures by responding to us in ways we can discern and interpret in support of our physical well being.

Some of this technology offers feedback for us to check our stress level. Some of it unites us in communications. Some of it helps us to organize and assemble structured social systems so that we are able to see our common ground clearly as a global society.

I believe that within 1 or 2 generations we will achieve the goal set out for us - to be able to think and know and feel and know simultaneously offering us checks and balances so that we will have more than one way to know what is for us and what is for others as I've stated before on these blogs.

My feeling is that this is not a pipe dream and it is not something that is overly technological. I believe that we will not require any external mechanical devices or technological devices to learn these things but our technology will be available to support us by making it available to have international networks as we have now.

This, as I'm calling it, hybrid human being will be simply generations coming up now or soon to arrive who will be born to the technology in existence and take it for granted and will also arrive with highly attuned feelings and thought capability. Don't be too surprised if you find that the feeling aspect is stronger.

I believe that this has always been the case and in the past human beings have been able to use instinct, as I have talked about extensively here on these blogs but now with our attention to thought and its functions we will be able to moderate thought without sacrificing it and we will also be able to accommodate thought into feelings.

We will feel and know and we will be able to think and know more or we will think and know and be able to check with our feelings to make sure that it is so. We are close as a society globally to being able to do this now.

I just wanted to share this with you because my feeling strongly is that we have almost arrived and this arrival will herald an improvement of life for all human beings on this planet and will help us to value all other life as we can connect more than one way.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Apply Yourself Now...

As many of you may have noticed there has been a lot of urgent situations developing lately. Many of us also have been involved in circumstances where we need help or where we might wish to urgently help others.

Given that, I am interjecting a message here on Benevolent Magic with the request that you ask for the most benevolent energies that are available for you to share your personal space with you and when you feel that or when you get the impression that they are present then I'm requesting that you say the following living prayer.

I'm requesting that you say, "I am asking that all those people all over the world and all those beings all over the world who need help, love, support, encouragement, blessings, safety, protection, food, shelter and other receive all that they need now in the most benevolent way from all those people and beings who can help them."

I will from time to time if necessary or if the toll of urgency strikes include such messages here. I am asking for you to respond in the most benevolent way now and know that as this message gets out and about that you have something you can say besides what you have been doing - and I know you have been doing your part - that will help. Know and believe it will help.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Getting Out Of Our Own Way

The pathway to prosperity is not always obvious is it. Sometimes it is circuitous and even turns back on itself. It seems as if we've forgotten something and have to repeat it. I'd like to talk a little bit about that today.

These days we are often reminded of how much some people have and we are also reminded about how little some have. I know that we all see the future in time, as being something benevolent where everyone has what they need and we are all kind to each other and I believe that this will happen but there is a pathway there.

One of the pathways is something that we experience here on the internet where we read each others thoughts and as best as possible in words - our feelings and we have the opportunity to read thoughts and feelings of others many of whom we don't know and have never met and some whom, by reading their expressions here on these blogs, we feel we know somewhat and perhaps we would like to meet.

I have found in my experience that when we co-ordinate in this way we find out things about each other - even people who might live on the other side of the Earth - we have so much in common with them.

Oh we may not have the same pursuits or the same interests but we all feel things the same way and our thought processes work the same and our body biology is basically the same, given that we have two different types of human beings.

Still, with all this common ground and even with a heart filled with a desire to share there is a genuine feeling and evidence to back it up that prosperity is sorely lacking in many places. I'm sure we can all identify with that from time to time if not all the time.

I want to suggest some homework. It won't take long, so no worries okay. It comes under the heading of a living prayer and as I've said before I'd like you to ask for all those energies to come in to support you so that you can feel as benevolent as possible before you say this living prayer and once you have done that then I recommend you say this especially if you are feeling those benevolent energies.

I recommend you say, "I am asking that all those beings whom I know and whom I don't know who have needs physical that can be served by prosperity of their own or by shared prosperity from others experience all that they need on an ongoing basis in the most benevolent way for all beings." Now it's important to put it like that so that there is no confusion that all are to be served benevolently.

In my world where magic is so much a portion of existence, and my perception of many of the beauties of our world is that it has its own definition as magic - the smile of a baby unprompted by anything around baby, the beauty of a flower and so on, then in that magical world I perceive that we can experience prosperity.

One of the ways I want to strongly recommend is if you don't have something - alright - and you need it that you examine your own feelings. If you can say out loud - I need...something or other - perhaps you need to sell something, perhaps you need to acquire something - say it out loud someplace where you feel comfortable speaking out loud and notice how you feel in your physical body.

Does your physical body feel tight and uncomfortable? That could mean that you are simply upset because you don't have it but it could also mean that you are resistant, angry or resentful because you don't have it.

If that is the case, and even if it isn't, I'm going to recommend that you say this living prayer as well. I recommend you say, "I am asking that I be able to easily and comfortably let go of all the resistance I have to welcoming my reception of all my needs - that my needs be served for me in the most benevolent way for me and that I experience delight, happiness and comfort in my acquisition of my needs and can express my thank you's with simple graciousness."

Now you might ask why I added that little part on the end. So many of us have been raised in environments where we are encouraged to be rugged individualists and when that happens we often do not learn how to say thank you in such a way as other people feel you mean it.

If you want to test this out, look in the mirror sometime and say, "Thank you." Do you feel uncomfortable saying it? Do you feel uncomfortable hearing it? Check it out too when others say thank you to you. Do you feel uncomfortable? If you do, make up your own living prayer in order to get past that - alright.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Mother Earth Can Help To Soothe You

There is a place on this planet that has special meaning and significance to me. I lived there for some time and still have some connections there. That place is Sedona Arizona. It is a place of great beauty. There are many people there of wisdom and of course knowledge. I bring this out even though most of you know about it because it is a place that has connections to the body of Mother Earth and it is not alone in those particular connections.

You have seen in many places - Spain, Colorado in the United States to name a couple of others - where there is soil and rock and mesa's and so on of red Earth. This has to do with Mother Earth's blood system in stone. It is as if she is trusting us with her blood vessels.

I know that the actual comparison in our bodies would suggest that there is some liquid comparison but if you want to know the actual linear version of what is Mother Earth's blood compared to our blood it is oil but I think many of you know this.

As far as the connection though, to our version of blood with the signs we recognize that makes our blood red - hemoglobin - then red soil and red rock is that.

Why do I mention this? It is possible if you have wounding of the heart, and what I mean by that is old pain and heart hurt, to go to such a place where there is this red rock and if you can find - not some to take, please don't do that for it will lose its capability if it is removed from that place - but if you can find rock that is in place or dirt that is in place there in that location where the red rock and dirt is found you will discover if you spend time there, sit there, lean against the rock and so on and just speak out loud if you remember - not everyone does - about what caused that hurt then you may find that it is to your advantage.

Don't speak in a way that is blaming anyone - yourself or others - rather speak it as if you were a third party. Not like a journalist speaking about something but like a observer. I know that won't be easy for you but I do not wish you to relive what caused that hurt. If you like you can type up something beforehand that you will read and that you feel comfortable reading because all the details are not necessary to give.

But when your body is in contact with that red rock or soil you can find - not for everyone - but you can find very often that that pain level will be reduced and if you are able to do this for 3 different times on 3 different days - it can be done 3 days in a row, I would recommend that it be done on alternate days. Say, spend a week in such a place if possible or even over time. If it can be said while you are touching that rock or dirt it will help.

It is also possible to experience some other forms of benevolence but remember that it is not sufficient to just lean against or sit on or be in contact with that stone or dirt in your clothing. By all means remain dressed but touch the rock or stone or dirt wherever it is safe to do so and feels good to you.

You can touch it with the back of your hand or with your finger tips - alright. I recommend that or if you feel completely safe and comfortable you can touch it with your wrists on the side where you find the palm of your hand. One wrist or the other or if you feel completely comfortable - both wrists. That is a place of profound reception on your body that is available for most people to be touching some thing.

I am not offering any guarantees or health cures here but in terms of old wounding that you have suffered I recommend this.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

The Team

On the way to a better life we have many choices and pathways, don't we.

There is a path of conflict and competition which some use to, as they feel, bring out the best in themselves. To excel, to do what they are able in our position to others and yet even on that pathway there is the desire to work with others - to be on a team and support each other.

Then there are other pathways that involve the team over individuality and yet here we are on Earth in our lives and there is no denying that we are singular as individuals.

We look around and each tree, each flower, each animal is also a singular individual and yet how very often there is the drive - it must be that eh - to be amongst others of our own kind - to support each other, to have our team.

My feeling is that this whole thing with teams whether it be expressed as a sporting event or in the corporate world or in the political world or in the social world or in the professional world - this whole thing with teams has everything to do with our natural desire to work together.

I am not saying that competition is a bad thing, I am not saying that one way is the best way. I am saying that I believe that because our physical bodies are essentially a team - working together - all the elements - to create the best physical self we can achieve - or for that matter in our world the harmony that is still present - the plants and animals in balance with each other to the best of their ability - I feel that we are here to learn the value of teamwork in difficult situations.

From my perception the worlds, other than this planet which is a school, are all involved in teamwork and compatibility. It is a given - that - in those worlds but here where we don't remember who we are in order to learn this, that and everything there is the need to be reminded of the value of the team.

I believe and I have been taught that the team is the way of the future and that teams will continue to become more and more inclusive. Perhaps sporting events will evolve that are more inclusive rather than exclusive. This is happening even now when you look at the phenomena of the broader community of sports enthusiasts.

I believe that we are becoming Team Earth by way of connecting this way from person to person and I also believe that someday we will be Team Universe with the inclusion of ourselves and our culture. Granted, more modified to be benevolent in acceptance of life benign and in the joyous discovery of a variety of life beyond.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Consider The Forest

Acquainting oneself with the environment of trees is invariably a lesson incorporating the harmonious in ones life.

When you consider the way a tree exists - it cannot get out of the way, can it - perhaps to a very slight degree it can but for the most part it is stable. It can produce seeds, often fruit and other in the way of a harmonious contribution. Leaves or needles fall and cushion the ground creating - in time soil to receive the seeds.

I know you know this already but I speak to you today about the heart of the tree. The heart of the tree is not in one place alone just as our heart being is not in one place alone. You could say that it is associated with the tap root which reaches deep into the soil and gives birth to other roots that search out nutrients to support the tree yes but also future generations and in the larger sense - the forest and the life in the forest itself.

Do we do that as human beings? Yes, to a degree but because we have the advantage - or is it a disadvantage - of mobility we are not forced to learn harmony.

The tree must learn harmony because of its stolidness. It remains where it chooses and is invited and of course welcomed to grow. I am speaking here of course of the tree growing through the influences of nature rather than being planted by man.

So, given the example of the tree why might it be that for us as human beings we could be at disadvantage. We must seek harmony as beings of motion.

We have at times in our life cycle moments when we are not in motion. Sleep yes, in our early childhood yes - a little motion there or a motion wrought by others picking us up eh. Sometimes late in life or even during times of injury or illness but other than that we are largely mobile.

How does a mobile being create harmony? You create it of course by the example of other life forms or other people around you.

You see how they live - are they happy? Do they cause others to be happy by their example, by their support, by their interactions? Are our own actions causing harmony and happiness?

This is difficult isn't it because it's easy to interpret those words according to one culture or another which may believe it is causing harmony and happiness within a given realm of existence.

I feel now that the reason there are so many people on Earth and so many different cultures or variations of cultures is that our mobility while it seems to be expanding is also in a sense becoming less so. We are being encouraged to look to the home front. Our families, our friends, our neighborhoods yes. Do we get along? Are we welcomed? Do we welcome others? These simple thoughts and feelings are important in our life.

Consider the forest - I do not feel we are close to such harmony yet but we can consider it as a model.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Kinship Beyond Time

Do you know that there is a co-ordinating element connecting all people's of the Earth and it is being heightened now so as to bring forth much greater co-operation, recognition and memory of past alliances.

This memory of past alliances is going to reach across all races, cultures, religions, nationalities and remind us all when in the company of another or many others - many of whom we won't have any awareness of ever having met in our now lives - that we have something very strongly in common. It is a hidden kinship.

This kinship has only been recently and subtly released into our conscious feeling memory. Now what do I mean by conscious feeling memory? I mean a physical memory in our body that recognizes through the feelings we have in our own body of a concordance between ourselves and others.

This does not have at this time a counterpart in thought. Thought will of course jog our memory very often about some person, place, thing, event and so on but this is different.

This type of feeling memory is the type of thing that you may have had from time to time. Deja vu is an example but also you've had perhaps times in the past when you have met someone and felt that concordance. Oftentimes these meetings result in friendships that can even last a lifetime.

This kind of connection between people's is going to become so obvious to so many people now that you and others will be talking about it around the water cooler, so to speak. In short, it will become a topic of conversation that is so striking, so obvious and so frequent that it will not go unnoticed.

I want to bring this to your attention now because over the next 2 to 3 weeks - yes - you will become much more aware of it as a factor of your daily lives.

It is a good thing this, because it not only brings up that capacity to your mental attention within your physical body - that feeling capacity of knowing but it also reminds you that there have been other times, other places, other lives where we have lived and yes - loved and also been in concordance with - developing friendships and family and greater family with so very many people that are on the Earth right now.

I wanted to remind you that this is here now and it's a happening. Talk about it to your friends if it comes up and encourage them if you would - to welcome it. It can mean the difference between war and peace. It can make the difference between good life for us all with co-operation. It can really make a difference.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Allowing And Accepting - We Can Do This

How often we all feel we have the answer even if only for a moment.

There are times when I read or hear from others - things that work so well for them that I can tell that they are in the enthusiasm of the moment and I wouldn't dream of questioning it but the question that does pop up into my head when they are not so cheerful is - so, does your system work well for you? This would be a cruelty however to say because we all have downtimes don't we.

I believe that we are here to test our beliefs and our attitudes about life that we have incorporated before we have been born here. This is a testing ground and that's why it is so challenging.

This is what I've been taught and this is what I believe on the basis of my experience.

It is easy for us to be critical. Sometimes that criticism comes from our life's experience and we feel justified in providing our criticism but other times it comes from the criticism and judgment of others that we have internalized because those others were important to us at that time or have an ongoing importance to us.

Very often the challenge involved here is that we don't always remember where we assimilated our attitudes and opinions and therefore we find ourselves justifying them or further entrenching ourselves in those attitudes and opinions even though they may derive from judgments placed upon us at a time when we were more vulnerable or perhaps younger or both.

I'm not saying we must remain in constant analysis of our own motives and attitudes. I am saying however that maybe we need to cut ourselves a little slack as well as we might need to cut others some slack too.

It is a difficult world this - for us all and while it's challenging to be patient for what we want and need I believe the more patience we provide ourselves and the more patience we provide to others - not expecting them to live up to some unrealistic standard and not expecting ourselves to live up to it either will ultimately benefit us in allowing us to experience life as it happens in the present moment rather then as we've been told how it should be, how it must be.

And so, that's my thought for today. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Life - Understood Now Or Later

There is a way with words where the energy that was present when those words were spoken can be felt when the page is touched or when, through the usage of words the mind must stop to think about what has just been said - to ponder what did that mean and sometimes one does not really know what it meant.

However as life goes on and one goes back another time to read it then very often you understand it because your life has progressed, you have had more experience and the way you read it allows you to stop, think, reflect and understand.

These blogs are written very much that way. So anytime you have the experience where you don't understand something just know that you can make a little marker there and sometime in the future after you've lived life come back and read it again - it might make more sense.

Keep that in mind with the books as well, the ones that I've put out and any book that doesn't make sense when you read it even though it may feel good on a physical basis but the words don't seem to connect in your mind. Once life has been lived, once experience has been had - thus the possibility of doors and windows being opened so that what was felt once as having meaning is still felt that way but the addition of the mental understanding is presented.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

The Plant That Survives For Us

Now you come across a weed by the side of the road. You look at it for no good reason for a moment as you walk along the old country road and you realize suddenly that it has great beauty and you wonder why it's called a weed.

After all it has a beautiful flower and some of the flowers are going to seed and they have great beauty and have even been shown in countless photographs of their beauty as people, often children, blow the seeds into the wind.

Is it not a beautiful thing that - how the dandelion which we often take for granted and sometimes do not welcome has such great beauty and that Creator has seen to it that those seeds can get from place to place through the natural cycle of Mother Earth - wind, water and welcome.

Those 3 w's - wind, water and welcome have a great deal to do with how the plant species on this planet are able to not only propagate but also to be welcome to the exact place on the Earth where they are not only most welcome but most likely to be able to thrive - yes - not just survive but thrive.

Is that not a beautiful creation. Think about that next time you look at a weed, as we call it, and consider - if Creator put all this effort into this - is this plant not worthy of our appreciation.

I know that there are those who use the greens of dandelion for food and there are those who use other parts of the plant for medicinal purposes but lets also consider the fact that this plant has beauty and I believe it has purpose far beyond what scientists and even medicine people have discovered yet. I believe it is not only a example to us of natural survival in the natural elements of Earth but that it has the capacity to provide for us in ways we have yet to discover.

Lets, instead of assuming the opposite - lets assume that this plant is here for us because it is determined to survive even when we don't welcome it. I say lets say - welcome.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

A Valuable Service

This is a time now when we are faced with choices. We can assume this or gravitate to that. We can accept this or resign ourselves to that. We can welcome this or we can be depressed by that.

There is something I've been doing for awhile and it requires an effort on my part given the facts of the world as they are presented to us not only by our observations at times but frequently by the news reports that are so prevalent in our society - and that thing is that I've been practicing optimism.

I've mentioned that here before several times but I'm mentioning it again today because it is sometimes feeling like a uphill struggle. Oh, gotta be optimistic - you understand.

It's not always easy but there's a reason. Do you know that it is in the nature of being cheerful that things will be attracted, you see. It functions like a magnet. It is possible to attract good things to happen for you.

Also there is another factor of it and that is that it automatically puts you into service where you are providing good things for others. Oh granted you'll meet the person from time to time who might make fun or a joke out of the fact that you're cheerful when there is plenty of reasons not to be but you'll also meet many people who will be uplifted and cheered by the fact that they met someone who's cheerful.

Now I know you've had the experience of meeting someone who's cheerful and it does tend to leave you with a good feeling even if at first you don't feel comfortable with it because it is out of the ordinary these days but once upon a time it wasn't so out of the ordinary. It was in fact so ordinary that people took it for granted.

So, I'd like you to practice on it and I promise I won't keep bangin away at you about optimism. I've just found that at times it improves the quality of my life and I receive the personal satisfaction of having improved the quality of other people's lives by being optimistic.

Give it a try and see if it is of value to you and others and remember it isn't always necessary to be optimistic every moment ;-) I know I find that to be difficult too but give it a try and see if you can be optimistic sometimes.

Goodlife.

Our Quest For Time

Where has time gone? I'm sure many of you have noticed that time or the time you have to do things has seemingly speeded up. Where has it gone?

I believe that it is important to inform you of my perception here. Our lives on Earth are dedicated to a purpose. Yes we each have our individual soul purpose, that's true but in the larger sense we are attempting to accomplish something.

The explorer race books, which I put out quite a few with my publisher, do elaborate in great detail what that purpose is but the nutshell of it here is simply that the intention we all have together is to provide the insight and the complete understanding of how it is possible to work together unconsciously at all times and gradually come to full and complete consciousness of how we work together to bring about a benevolent outcome from what was once chaos as we understand chaos to be.

We look around our world now and very often we can see that chaos - and yet we move our vision to another place and we can see beauty and yes - even grace.

I believe that the reason time is apparently speeding up is that our hearts and souls wish the suffering to stop and that we have moved the speed up on the recorder, so to speak, so that we can get through things quicker and that the suffering and travail can be over with faster.

It's hard to imagine that we have such capabilities and yet we are all created by Creator are we not and thus we are in that sense Creator's apprentices. I believe that it is in our nature to have such capacities as are available through observing Creator in our greater senses and through being on Mother Earth who has such vast capabilities that she can provide for all the myriad of life forms we have here.

I believe that we are here and we are changing time. I will have more to say about this as time goes on.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Adaptation Is The Key

Now many of us these days are feeling the strain on our physical bodies. In our times we are used to medical treatments being touted generally from a pharmacological sense or even alternative methods that have had success as well and speak of these successes and in a world like that we become somewhat used to the idea that our personal physicality can be determined at least to a helpful degree by the available medications and treatments.

There is no doubt that modern medicine and various alternatives have come a long way in providing relief and help for us all and they have much to be proud of. Still it creates a conditioning for us doesn't it or at the very least it lulls us into a state of expectation.

We expect that varied type of cure - perhaps simple, perhaps more prolonged or we worry that there isn't one. In times in the past peoples only expectation was that they would live as well as possible until they were not here anymore.

I'm not here to chide anyone this way or that way, rather I'm suggesting that in a perfect situation where there is no danger perceived or otherwise, where there is simply a state of calm based upon observation and experience and where happiness exists everywhere that our physical bodies have the capabilities without expectations of disaster or even discomfort of surviving easily. A hundred and twenty, a hundred and thirty years - maybe more but in these stressful times our physical bodies adapt.

How do they adapt. Sometimes we have conditions, yes discomforts. Other times what we experience is a alteration of perception based upon the degree of "simple cure" that we are exposed to.

I want to suggest something to you and that's this. In order for us to live well and live as well as possible yes - it is important for us to allow our physical bodies to be just what they are. Yes by all means get medical treatment when necessary and use modern pharmacology when necessary and alternative treatments - yes of course but lets not have unrealistic expectations about our physical bodies and lets also remember that Earth as we experience it now is a school. We are here to learn.

Cause and effect yes, we are here to learn what happens and why yes, we are here to learn how to get along with each other yes but we are also here to learn the nature of our own physicality, how we can preserve and protect it, how we can do that in the most benevolent way.

Let us be developing and applying a attitude of benevolence towards our own physical bodies. Let us drop the criticism when we look in a mirror. Let us appreciate this magnificent vehicle that allows our souls and our personalities to function on this world and enjoy the moments of happiness and the joys we have here and to accept the rest as part of our education or our simple time of duration.

I believe a shift to an attitude of benevolence towards our physical bodies from our personalities to ourselves and from our personalities just observing the physical bodies of others could easily add 20 years to our lifetime. Consider it, think about it, let me know what you think if you wish.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Say It If You Would - With Feeling

Do you know that when you have a feeling of gratitude or appreciation or happiness for another person or towards another person that these feelings feed you as well as are emanated to them.

It's good to say the words, "Thank you" and mean it with the feelings and it's not necessarily as good to simply say the words without the feeling because that can confuse true communication.

True communication is something whereby one hears what you say not only on the basis of your words but just as important and in many cases much more important on the basis of your feelings that you are experiencing when you say them.

What happens when you say something where your feelings are not corresponding with what you say. In many situations in the polite world of work and so on - not much but perhaps the one that hears you or the many that hear you simply feel that what you're saying is insincere.

What about the situation though that is more important to you - someone perhaps near and dear that you're communicating with that you really want to hear you and to feel that you're sincere.

Practice okay - I'm going to give you a little homework, its been a while since I've done this. Practice on saying, "Thank you." That's all - and see if you can feel thanks - a genuine feeling of thanks. It might be a physical feeling of warmth that you may feel in and around your heart. It might be some other physical feeling but if you don't feel a physical feeling of thanks then you know you've got some practicing to do.

Try other words that would have to do with gratitude and see if you can find that physical feeling in yourself that corresponds with those words that you are saying. This is very important because not only do we wish to communicate in sincerity with others but of course we need more than we know these days to feed ourselves at the same time.

Yes we eat with food - yes, of course and yes others may do kind things for us and that's a comfort but if we do not allow the kindness we do for others to also feed ourselves in this benign benevolent way we are literally saying to our own bodies that we are unworthy. I know you do not wish to give this message to your body and I also believe that you will welcome the opportunity to provide a welcoming to the physical world for others as well as for yourself.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Yes, You Can Help

There are times now when we are totally baffled by events in the world but we have to remember when we were younger. Yes perhaps more innocent in our own insulated worlds regardless of what was happening there, was happening in our area, in our family, in our neighborhood - yes - things were happening all over the world then we just didn't know about it.

In these times we are able to know about it and often events upset us. Always remember, when those occasions occur immediately say the following living prayer, "I am asking that all those people and beings who need help, love, support and relief receive all that they need now benevolently from all those beings who can provide that for them." Or if you prefer to say it in a simpler way you could say, "I am asking that all those beings who need help now receive all the help they need in the most benevolent way from all those beings who can help them."

This may seem like a worded thing but you can prepare yourself by asking that all of the most benevolent energies, loving beings and yes deities if you wish be with you in that moment in the most benevolent and loving energetic way possible for you and when you feel something - anything - or even feel yourself relax then say those words.

It is alright to be comforted yourself. It is natural when world events happen or even something upsetting in your own neighborhood or community or closer to home than that to be upset, to want to help, to feel like taking action in your physical body but if you are unable or if those you wish to help don't know you want to help them or cannot for any reason receive your help or that they are simply so far away that you are unable to have a direct effect then say that living prayer for it will bring comfort to all those who need it. You'd be surprised how very effective it can be.

Goodlife.

Forevermore

Can we find our way? Is it possible? Through the dim passages of life are there doors bidding - goodlife.

It is possible but one must do more than look. Looks can be deceiving yes? And this is why we must learn to use the tool offered to us here on this planet. The tool is feelings - not only that which we touch but that which we sense inwardly before contact is made. I speak very often on these blogs about such contact and when we have that contact it can be most pleasing.

Consider now forevermore
To wake perchance to dream
And life upon any golden shore
To be, to see, to be.

Can it be - this contact sport that we play here - can it be as simple as that. Are we simply learning touch from the inside out. Are we simply here to learn physical feelings?

I believe we are here to become - to become more and in order to become more we must now make contact not only with our inner world, our physical self, our spirit, our soul but we must make contact with each other and in order to do that we must come to that place within - that choice forevermore.

Traveling The Highways Of Life

The world of the abstract mixes freely with the free form flow of life here. Sometimes there is a juxtaposition of one into the other. As those who practice benevolent magic it is our responsibility to encourage as much ease as possible so that those moments of juxtaposition are as soft as possible.

I am not trying to prevent people from having adventures, fun and excitement that is benevolent for them - meaning causing no harm to them and no harm to others - I'm not trying to stop that. After all the world of fun is intended to be part of our true nature however how many times have we either participated in or observed or even heard about someone else's fun having turn into pain and suffering for others.

This is often found in situations when machinery is involved isn't it. It is easy to do that and so important to pay attention as we all know and yet there are things that can be done - processes and encouragements.

Let me give you an example. Say you are living near or even walking near or near for a moment - a highway. You see the cars going by, occasionally you might think about the drivers who are your fellow human beings. Granted, you may not know them personally though you may see a car you recognize and say, "Oh, there's a friend."

Still in the larger sense we know and cherish all. Here's something you can say to encourage the most benevolent experience. Try to be looking at the highway when you say it but if you need to close your eyes it's alright to simply face in that direction. You can sit down if you like or not - whatever is safe and comfortable for you.

You might say, "I am asking that all those who travel here remain alert in their machines and experience the most benevolent and safe journeys whether short or long, whether an errand or a mission of mercy or any reason for travel - may they be safe in the most benevolent way."

Remember always - when you say these things, that being a Living Prayer, if you do not feel energy coming in when you are saying it pause and wait - see if it comes in.

The reason living prayer works is not because they are well chosen words though that is also true. It works because there is a sense of harmony that is not only a worded thing but also is something that is felt.

Mother Earth herself is in harmony with it and all life around you from the smallest to the largest - all souls, all beings are also in harmony with it.

If you do not feel the energy, don't be discouraged. Someday you will and perhaps that day will help you to see if you also feel as a portion of all beings.

Life here is interposed with many intersections, let's see what we can do to create the safest and most benevolent ones.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

A Deeper Image May Be Coming Soon

Do you know there is a invention coming. There are people working on it now.

It is a mirror unlike any we have known so far. It has depth and will reveal to us more of our feelings - not what is shown now. Granted what exists now has qualities to it that we take for granted but when it was first invented were quite startling and many of us of course have seen children or animals with that startled enjoyment of the mirror and yet the new mirror coming will reveal feelings and depth of character to us in a way that causes us to feel at ease and brings us towards a greater sense of our own personal comfort with our being.

I'm talking about that now because there are those who are working on it and I want to encourage you.

I feel that that mirror will improve the quality of life for everyone on this planet in ways we do not currently understand.

It's not that the old mirror is not a amazing thing but I feel that the mirror that's needed now is one that gives us comfort at all times and does not only give us an image of ourselves that prompts us to experience our feelings of ourself on a purely surface level. The mirror we have now is basically a two dimensional reflection but the mirror that is coming will reveal our depth of character - not philosophically but it will show qualities in us that allow us to feel better about our whole self.

It's coming and I just thought I'd let you know so you can think about it and anticipate it and yes - look forward to it in a way that will cause us to feel happiness when our persona on a level of depth is revealed to us so we can appreciate our character as well as our image.

Goodlife.

Repetitive Dreams - What Might They Be

Have you ever had the experience of a dream that is repetitious - not necessarily frightening or agitating but repetitious? Maybe not every night, just every once in a while - and the natural conclusion is that you're trying to learn something or that life as you're living it is trying to tell you something.

I want to offer an alternate explanation. I'm not saying that it is the only explanation but it is an alternate explanation that I feel is valuable.

One of the reasons we're here on this planet, as I believe and I've been taught, is not only to learn how to get along on our own but quite obviously just looking at societies all over the world - how to get along with others in a situation where we need to be co-operative and at the very least - communicative in some way.

I believe that we are here to continue what we do in other worlds. Other worlds are very easy by comparison to this one. This is the Ph.D. school, this is the hard place and in Ph.D. school you are expected to function largely on your own with some minor degree of guidance.

Here we are expected to do that as well even though we might have a lot of guidance from those around us - oftentimes more guidance than we would ever want or need - yes :-)?

So I believe that what's going on that we're having in this dream experience is some version of assisting others.

I know this is going to sound fantastic to you but what if...we're in Guide school? What if we're in a situation where we're trying to resolve something that has to do with guiding others?

We are familiar with the idea of having Guides, those who help us out, those who try to give us a word or a suggestion that will ease our way in this life. What if we are that.

I know we tend to think of Guides as being Angelic Beings but what if we are that and what if we have that on an ongoing basis even though we have a life here at the same time?

What if we're trying to do both in order to increase our level of compassion and understanding for those whom we're trying to help and at the same time trying to find a way to resolve something that we have been unable to resolve - meaning unable to help whoever it is we're guiding because we need that compassion and we need that understanding of life here on Earth.

I realize that may sound a bit fantastic but it is alright to suggest such possibilities isn't it. I believe that it might just be possible and it is certainly one explanation for repetitive "dreams" because maybe this is where we're stuck in trying to help that person that we're guiding.

Maybe our whole life here is to help us to get unstuck - to develop compassion and experience so that when we continue with our work beyond this planet we will have patience to a much greater degree.

Compassion yes, experience yes and also we will not have such high demands and expectations and yes attachments for our own capacity to resolve anything, everything - to help everyone all the time, to make sure that everyone is happy before we are happy - in short to accomplish all there is.

Maybe all there is is a co-operative effort. Maybe all that is is a co-operative effort also.

Consider it, think about it and yes - it's okay to smile about it too. Goodlife.

A New Sensory Awareness - Who Shall Bring It?

At the one end of the spectrum one finds colors. At the other end of the spectrum one could find sound or contact - meaning touch. What spectrum am I talking about?

I'm talking about sensory awareness. In our world sensory awareness is essential for us to be able to accommodate an interaction with our physical world.

Without that interaction we could perhaps have thought. We would certainly have feelings and there would be awareness of sorts but we are here not to simply contemplate existence. Granted we have opportunity to do that but we are here to interact with other whatever form that other might take - a person, a place, a thing, a time, an event and so on.

The reason we are here to do that is that we have moved throughout many lifetimes towards an application time. This time is truly about application.

We are here on this planet to see if what we've been thinking - what we've been contemplating if you would, what we've been considering and what we've been doing on other planets would be possible to do here. This is the laboratory - on Earth - that's what I believe.

It is the laboratory to test out all of those ideas that looked so good on other planets. Can you imagine - people sitting around on other planets saying, "What can we do about Earth? The people seem to be struggling so much. They seem to be combating the natural world and what is offered by the natural world - wisdom, food and resources. They seem to be struggling not only for their survival but with themselves and with each other."

You can imagine people sitting around with a desire to help us saying this - working out how they could try this, how they could try that. The thing about it is that they're working that out in a much more ideal world so what seems natural that would work there might not work here. How to come up with a plan that would work here.

Well of course, first you need to have some trainees. You need to have people who've been here, who've lived lives here and who understand the way things work here.

I believe that at times in our lives we are surrounded by trainees. Oh yes, we like to think of them as guides and other names we apply to them but in fact I feel that they are observing us.

Haven't you ever noticed at times the feeling of someone being present. I'm not talking about neighbors walking by chuckling and talking to themselves. I'm not even talking about upstairs or downstairs or next door neighbors. I'm talking about a sense of presence that doesn't exactly feel uncomfortable but it's palpable - noticeable if you would.

I believe that these beings have the capacity to sit in on our world a little bit - not interfering, not frightening, just sitting in and observing. I have noted some phenomena to support this and I believe some of you have noted it as well.

Let's just welcome them and say, if we get that feeling sometime, "Welcome. Please observe, please note and please tell others when you are in your meetings that it is difficult here and also - welcome - come and live a life here so you can find out for yourself."

I know this scenario I'm laying out for you might seem to be ludicrous on the surface of it but in fact I believe that there are some here that are from other planets and will return to other planets who are literally trainees and I'll bet there's been times in your life when you felt like you might have been one of them and wondered what it was like back home on another planet.

I'm pretty sure that as difficult as this planet is and as filled with love as I believe Creator is that Creator would not expect us to live out our lives eternally on this planet. This is a school.

It is intended to be a challenge. I believe we're here to learn and I believe that when we do complete our learning that we do return to those meeting rooms on other planets and maybe have more practical solutions to help our brothers and sisters who are on Earth and I believe that we're going to start to see a lot of these people returning in new lives now.

As a matter of fact I believe that those people are being born and raised on the planet now. I have a lot of faith in the younger generation coming up. They're going to have some unusual ways about them. They're going to demonstrate unusual ways about them. Let's not assume there's something wrong with them. Maybe there's something right with them.

Maybe they're here to remind us who we are. Maybe they're just delivering the message we've asked for.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.
