And its function in the metaphysical community is to block objects from materializing on this planet that originate from other dimensions or densities.</p><p>To give you a good idea of what the veil's job is to do, block matter transversal from reaching physical or solid vibration status from the astral. Where objects can be anything from physical beings to star ships.</p><p>Right now, the veil is thinning, but it isn't gone completely. It's operating at about 70% effectiveness. The state of its over all influence is based on the influx of spirit and shadow able to cross through from the astral plane. So things like ghosts can try to make contact with us, or give us impressions of their thoughts through what's called the pass through or spiritual medium effect.</p><p>Tracking the veil is easier now than it has been before. Due to a useful tool showing you by week, the status of how effective it's been as a guardian of Gaia. <a href="https://www.higgypop.com/games/veil-strength/" target="_blank">Check The Current Strength Of The Veil Here</a>. This is where things get interesting, as it is not fully stable all the time.</p><p>Several people have speculated on whether or not removing the veil is a good thing or a bad thing. Due to the shear number of creatures out there, (beings) waiting to come in on the other side. Call it a border wall, it's been the reason behind the physical inability for cosmic disclosure to fully materialize here, experts theorize. And I do agree that with the veil gone, there should be no reason why full matter traversal shouldn't be possible between dimensions anymore if the star gates of Gaia are open.</p><p>The star gates that guard this planet belong to 5 realms. Celestial, fae, mage, shadow and spirit. Celestial meaning space travel, time travel and dimensional travel as it is the biggest gateway. Mage being all psychic activity, and this includes actual magic as well being a relatively growing gateway as psychics awaken. Spirit, meaning past life and other soul related memories as the third. Shadow, meaning things that hide outside of regular space time in their own bubble, which you could say Earth belongs to such a realm. And fae, meaning physical beings who can shift their appearance in more than one dimension and have complete control over how they can appear. Angels and demons belong to the fae.</p><p>These 5 gateways form a pentagram which has been around since Atlantis at least after the Orion war happened. Leaving many people, once the veil started thinning, to focus on their presence and the presence of others around them especially after the biggest wars on this planet started dabbling in technology that could directly impact the veil itself. One of several being 3d based, and Nuclear. Others being psychic related, such as remote viewing.</p><p>So what's the big deal you ask? Honestly, this event focuses on discussions surrounding how useful the veil is in our current day. Do you like it, do you hate it, do you not care about it, do you wish to change it? I personally feel that the veil once lifted, would provide us opportunities of equal measure. But until we know what's hiding behind it, there's a good chance we could get something completely unexpected. Despite the fact that some say we're being monitored by several celestial well meaning groups. I have a feeling things are a lot more complicated than that.</p><p>So this leaves one question to be asked. How badly do you wish to manifest a way out of here, if at all? Or better still, how would you like to show case your life to a guardian who could physically meet and communicate with you here? Or find out if someone who meant a lot to you in life is willing to speak with you or remember you if they have already passed through it?</p></div>Other Worldshttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/other-worlds2019-05-31T04:49:41.000Z2019-05-31T04:49:41.000ZXevianhttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/Xevian<div><p>Why is it that when you are on an astral projection schedule it abruptly end and becomes very spiritic and sparse threw out the following years? </p><p></p><p>Whats the best binary beats to heighten ones mind into Astral projection? I really really need help here lol </p><p></p><p></p><p>Fluffiest white clouds with the most beautiful blue sky, As far as the eyes could see was knee high dark green blade grass that swayed in the gentle breeze, in that grass was a crystal clear large pond and on the far side an old very large willow tree, and foot hills very very far, no mountains at all and I didn't see a sun neither. The spirit guide that greeted me looked like a Roman God about 7ft tall, except he was like a faint blue gray tall being, roman hair style. Larger than our eyes and ice blue almost white eye, he had like dark blue iris muscle separation lining in the lighter eye color. and the pupil was a dark blue not black with almost like a lighter blue reflection from the light. He wore a pastel blue robe with a rope tie, no feet, from the waist down he was like a mist of water which could form and walk like you and I.every time it was time to go he would maneuver to the middle of the pond and dissipate into mist and fall into the ponds water. I saw him 5 times in a row. I talked with him briefly about that world most of the talk was telepathy but I couldn't hear everything he was saying but he held my hand a lot as we walked around the pond, each time, counter clockwise then clockwise exc..On the 5th encounter I told him how I feel immense love for him. that was the last I went there lol</p><p></p><p>Another Was where I was above the tree line watching a highway filled with cops and emergency vehicles. it was cool with misty rain and foggy. large pine in a remote newly developed just being built residential neighborhood, probably about 10 houses and a couple framed. As my body lowered to above the houses I was drawn to someone face down in the cold wet frosty grass. as I looked threw the grass I could see and hear officers and the search unit yell and prod the land I could see flashlights, then all of a sudden I heard I found her, and he stuck his club under my left shoulder to life me a but then with his hand and strength he flipped me yelling shes still alive!! as they came running I remember moaning and suddenly I was above looking down at then over her, quickly my body sky rocketed up and threw the clouds backwards, the lightening was shocking me, as I started to wake up in bed I could see my husband looking at me in the bathroom mirror asking me whats wrong and if im ok, meanwhile I got shocked again, I could smell the burn and feel the pain, my whole body was jolting bad. I told him god is jolting me bringing me back to my body from an astral projection.</p><p></p><p>Not long ago a few months back I had another AP.... I went some where so bright, ankle to knee deep crystal clear water pure white sand, there was a lot of translucent plant life and life in this water very odd looking fish that I thought were dead were actually floating on their backs to shelter their eyes during the day. Didn't seem to be any rocks just sand, I didn't see land any where neither... ,no hill ranges no mountains no islands anyway... there was some earth toned odd plants in that ocean or water. Anyway I hear a voice from be hind me but I never saw the person and I don't know if it was male or female, seems androgynous, telling me to pick up the fish and I said they are dead but it convinced me to pick them up and when I did they flipped and jumped off or flew off kind of it was really odd, huge black eyes. so im guessing at some point the suns go down for days because their eyes are made for night vision being bout 1/3 their body size nd there was so many so they were very abundant there The plants looks like pods and very thorny. but scares and some were very viney and thorny too and some translucent but when you draw your hand threw them you can see what looked like clear straws/tube plants with hints of color threw their stems exc...anyway I was woken abruptly to watch the kids and it took me forever to wake up, I was really disoriented after that, like as if I was really high. so im wondering if there was more to the oxygen level or less oxygen there? Dunno</p><p></p><p>I have a couple more but I thought this was enough typing for now</p><p></p><p>What are your takes on these? </p></div>Crickethttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/cricket2018-09-15T03:10:50.000Z2018-09-15T03:10:50.000Zbryan the greathttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/bryanthegreat<div><p> </p><p> <i> Sometimes spirit comes to us in the strangest ways. As some know, I been dealing with health issues. I been open too things, still having hard time healing. At times overwhelming and despair. I say at times the universe , respond in the most amazing ways. I know that some place in us there is Source of Light. It changes everything. It just getting to it thats the problem. Being a Taurus patience is not are nature. Trying to remain calm in the storm that mostly the problem. So been working on trying to stay at peace to control the emotions.. At times it all goes out the window. This evening I say on my couch trying too calm down so pain level dodnt increase. As I say I placed hand on my chest an kept telling myself be happy. As I was doing this out of nowhere, came this huge cricket . Running across my living room to me. It ran to my foot and stayed there for the longest time. I know that It was a message from spirit. Cause it was so out of the ordinary. So after bit I caught it and released it outside. Then i looked up the spiritual meaning for them. Which was happiness and good fortune. I'm not sure, but I think when were ready ,the universe responds. The remarkable thing for me is , how the invisible Source just shows up out of seemingly nowhere. At times when we think we are alone, there something over looking us.</i></p></div>Remember your Mastery with Ra Channeled via Rosalie

path you chose to be here at this time......the efforts & intent have been stronger than felt by human beings since our Atlantean times ...for this I commend you.<br />Isis the Goddess energy is stronger now also than before since the same times and she is gathering all who resonate strongly with her for the nurturing which is and will be needed during the labour times of Gaia.<br />space .You will notice more and more as Isis ‘s energy walks amongst as she has merged also with you as one, as I Ra have done so since you were a young child, as Sirius merges with the sun and the light streams forth to all in your space.it will be felt.<br />Gone are the seeds of yesterday that would not develop & grow,y ou are the new seedlings of the new earth.<br />Share your light to all around you and know it is being merged with the light we are shining down upon all who are seeking.<br />There is no need to hang on to the side of the bank in fear of drowning, have faith & flow with the river of life, releasing and experiencing more than ever before.<br />Remember you are the master of your reality & reality is flexible.........you don’t have to hang on....you don’t have to be right .....Can you not be both and allow others to do their thing, their lessons learning to be who they are.<br />Our voices are coming through to you so much easier since the veil is as thin & gone totally to some, as the energies open the connection more and the realisation that we are one and not a separate entity.<br />Let the feelings of being responsible for journeys of ones close to you as in family, they too must find their way and now you have found your way it will leave you with very little time for the human game playing that can be within your families.<br />Do you realise yet that you are The I Am. that you are standing within your Mastery, you have done your homework, you have done the inner work, Now step into your full Mastery.<br />Be courageous, you were courageous enough to come into incarnation on this planet Earth, were you not?<br />Remember, every step you take, every action you take, every thought you have, every word you speak, sets off a chain reaction, resulting in manifestation.<br />Once again, redouble your efforts and discipline your thoughts.<br />Know that you are in charge....................<br />Make your thoughts of blessings, of unconditional love, free from judgment.<br />Most are learning that the need to criticise & judge others is unnecessary as it taking oneself out of their heart space.<br />You were created in the image of Mother/Father God meaning you have the same attributes as the God/Goddess of your Being.<br />Why don’t you try it and put your absolute trust in this and we will assist you in every way that we can?<br />The thought comes before Creation.<br />Creation is thought in action.<br />Play with it.<br />Remember your Mastery.<br />You are greatly blessed to be here at this point in time on this Planet Earth.<br />You are going in for the ride, look at it with great anticipation and joy.<br />This is what you came here for,f or this you were born.<br />Hold the light steadfast......<br />Do not look or listen to all the fear stories.<br />Hold the Light and shine it so bright to all the corners that are dark.<br />There is a party going on, above and below the Planet Earth, would you like to come?<br />Let us keep this Light-Hearted.<br />Keep your trust in yourself, the God/Self, the God/Goddess of your Being.<br />Love is the Key to All Locks,<br />Namaste<br />I Am Ra, your Teacher at your service always<br />Thank you, Ra with Love Namaste<br />Received today May 21st, 2017 Please share & do not change anything & give credit to Rosalie Muir <br /><a

Drekx Discuss Doubles, Dopplegangers and Duplicateshttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/tally-and-drekx-discuss-doubles-dopplegangers-and-duplicates2016-01-19T14:46:39.000Z2016-01-19T14:46:39.000ZDrekx Omegahttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/DrekxOmega<div><p><img src="https://www.paoweb.com/umacnatk.jpg" alt="umacnatk.jpg" width="249" height="249" /></p><p> </p><p>Drekx statement:<br /> Hi Tally I would suggest that a good example for what PR mentions, could be the Billy Meier ET contacts photos, of Asket.</p><p>On a planet of 8 billion surface humans and 1 billion inner earth, not only are the mathematical odds high, that we each have a doppleganger somewhere, but also, that even visiting ETs of the humanoid type, have terrestrial counterparts...albeit, sometimes differences can be highlighted in faces, that are not genetically identical, as would be identical twins at birth....</p><p> </p><p><br /> Tally asked:<br /> "Interesting Drekx... So by saying a 'double', does he mean a clone?... or what? Do you think it's possible for the same soul to have multiple physical bodies here at the same time... or just 'look-a-likes'? Blessings All Around..."</p><p> </p><p><br /> Drekx reply:<br /> Hi friend.....Well no, he does not mean clone, which would be much more than a double....Rather a clone would be a genetic duplicate....What he describes is an attempt to link a real ET with her double, when in fact there were subtle, if not obvious differences, as highlighted...Indeed, we all have a double, somewhere on this vast world of 8 billion surface humans...So the odds are that we may very likely look like someone, out there, closely, or superficially, also...Though I speak of a double, not a duplicate-clone...<br /> Souls enjoy diverse experiences and are not inclined to have identical bodily expressions, though...This is the norm, that each soul will want as much variety in life experiences, as humanly possible....It is not common for a soul to express itself through several identical bodies, at the same time...Well, as a rule I'd say... ;-)<br /> So a double out there in the world, will be a totally different soul and, probably, a different ray structure, entirely....</p><p> </p><p><br /> Tally said:<br /> "Thanks for that considerate clarification Om... Yeah, those two ladies in the images clearly show very different 'soul expressions'/'ray structures' to my eye. What about the possibility of a 'soul' incarnating in different looking physical bodies at the same time?... like a different race or sex, for example?... You seem to elude to this potential. And where are you getting your 'info' from my friend? Peace..."</p><p> </p><p><br /> Drekx reply:<br /> Well, if we view time as it truly is, that is spherical, rather than linear, we can each participate in the process of expressing ourselves within physicality, over the aeons, in a great variety of bodies, simultaneously...all races and both sexes...That variety is key to enfoldment and the gleaning of needed experiences, for soul growth, namely raising light quotient, within each "dip in the pool" of life....Now, from a linear time perspective, the process takes millennia and many lives....But as I understand that process, souls operate in triad formations, so one is incarnated, while the other two are "out" and they swap around, life to life.....A soul has enough energy "tailor made" from a designed life plan, to generate the alchemical gold for soul growth....It is simultaneous in a way, but not in a perceived linear way...only a higher perception can map it out, thus....</p><p> </p><p>There are soul groups, based on ashrams of the rays, working together in different bodies....As I said, triads operate this way...</p><p>The concept of a twin flame is a valid one, yet usually they are operating outside of linear time, as explained......Very unlikely to meet a twin flame here on earth...Maybe a soul mate, but that is different...</p><p> </p><p>My info is from within and within I recognise myself as connected within my ashram, which is taught, guided and honed, by Master Rakoczi....Some call him Saint Germain....So a disciple of that particular ascended master and also a contactee, as Sirian starseed...In fact, no earth human may contact beings off world, without going through the spiritual hierarchy first, as that net must be energized to make the contact work...</p><p> </p><p>Hope this explains, as some of this extends beyond the lower concrete mind of we human beings on earth....It is truly within the planer scheme of the higher manasic, where the intuition truly thrives...The technique is to glean data from such levels and step it down, to logical concrete mind use....That way it can be shared......So techniques are combined...They are mental impressioning, as described, telepathy with beings upon the aethers and physical discourses made with higher consciousness beings, in the flesh.....the role of all true contactees and initiates of the Light...the raising of consciousness, until we each become self-realised...Then "self" is much wider as a concept and truism, than we thought, initially...We realise our scope as part of a collective, but a benign and happy one, not a forced collective in any way...We must be free in willing it and working for and in it...So a free individual expressed within a higher ashramic scheme. Once connected, it is joyful and wonderous. Consciousness energy is revealed as cosmic in scope, not earthbound...Peace friend..</p><p><br /> Tally said:<br /> "Excellent 'rundown' there Drekx... Makes sense to me, mostly. So if all times actually exist at once, then we would have maybe thousands of different 'physical bodies' operating simultaneously... then why would it be so odd to think that we could have several bodies 'going' in any one particular 'time-slot'? You appear to be saying that this is not normal... but seem a bit unsure about how 'possible' it may be. Perhaps you can get a more 'complete' explanation from your inner 'contacts'... if you and they would be so inclined. If not, that's cool too... You've already offered plenty of 'food for thought' for the time being. : )Blessings..."</p><p> </p><p><br /> Drekx reply:<br /> It is possible, depending upon one's point in evolution, or light quotient....The only constraining factors upon your soul expression having several "yous" dotted around the globe, are the benefit it offers, under planetary karma and the energy needed for it to manifest, under the law of energy conservation..as pertaining to spiritual rules (there are many) that govern the right use of energies....In other words, the service benefits are weighed against the energies at hand, for a given soul, at a given light quotient...The law of cyclical return also determines which rays may be expressed in physicality in an era....and there are many others who are "waiting in the wings," to come in, as it were....The genetics and the karmic connections gleaned over many millennia, will determine the most appropriate families to be born into, for particular lessons to be learned...and as a rule of thumb, the less the light quotient, the less "stretched" a growing soul can be.....Life and it's psychological traumas and experiences, are demanding...We rest when out of incarnation, actually...when physically dead...You do have multiple forms of you, spanning the illusion of time, over millennia, BUT, from a linear perception, there can only effectively be one you on earth, at present......Now karma will determine where you incarnate and why; planetary karma...That is why you do not incarnate outside of earth, unless you are actually experienced already and serve as a "walk in." Which is rare..</p><p> </p><p>Now in contrast to this, beings who possess much higher light quotients, such as the Ascended Masters, or specifically, those who have achieved the 5th degree, or "ascension" and are now on the path of earth service, and thus present here, and not on Sirius, or serving as a kumara, etc...Such ones do have the power needed and the balance achieved, to project themselves into multiple bodies (the term used is "mayavirupa") which may be scattered at a variety of locations, all connected to the central manasic body (light body.)</p><p> </p><p>Note that a being should and needs to have completed planetary karmic lessons to project this way...His/her service capacity and energies, will determine the nature of said projection...Namely, is it of use, it must serve the plan...So, in essence, in order to project multiple form expressions, in this way, one must have a consciousness which exceeds the ascension level, namely one must be navigating the cosmic degrees and there are four above planetary ascension...Thus such a being has freed himself from planetary karma and is actually of a cosmic consciousness and resultant light quotient...That is why NDErs see themselves and relatives of a particular brightness, upon manasic (mental) planes and there are some (Masters of self) who shine brighter still....</p><p> </p><p>Hope this makes sense...Some of it is very complex and there are many spiritual laws and rules that need to be applied, that govern each incarnation...So some food for higher thought for you, hopefully...</p><p> </p><p>Spirit does not generate what is called "red tape" here.

I've been busy investigating a couple things, as well as maintaining my social life (my girlfriend dislikes it when I suddenly act cold due to work), and then there's attending school... So I figured I'll use this post to share a little story of mine. Well, to be more accurate, it was a 'projection' to me, but it most likely is something my crazy brain came up with to satisfy some odd psychotic need. I do not wish to claim that anything I state is true or false, because I cannot be entirely sure myself. I'm not a God, Angel, or Devil, all those creatures are things I enjoy hunting actually. I'm simply human, perhaps a bit demented due to thinking/knowing I don't have a soul, but still human. I hope you do not mind.</p><p></p><p>I suppose it started with the arrangement. The spirit organization I collaborate with asked me to work with an independent member of what I think was some kind of inter-dimensional system or group. Their goal was basically to give our solar system a sort of "United Nations", a "United Dimensions" if you will. It was a strange group so I'll avoid explaining anything more from them.</p><p></p><p>Anyways, this independent member. For now I'll call him "Cobalt". Cobalt brought with him his group of co-workers/close friends for me to meet. I was supposed to help them excavate a dimensional tower, which is basically a very small pocket dimension filled with who knows what, they're created through intensive thought. After a brief introduction to each other, Cobalt and I shook hands.</p><p></p><p>That was when it happened. I saw something light up in his brown eyes, like a blue flame of some sort, I believe we both froze there though. There seemed to be this large fluctuation of energy that suddenly appeared upon contact. This effect disappeared after about 2 minutes. We then released each other's hands to see what had changed. All of a sudden I find that Cobalt's friends were all pointing their weapons at me. Pistols, Blasters, Beam-Swords, someone had what looked like a crossbow. I didn't exactly react to the weapons pointed at me, because had I moved even in inch I would have probably had my brains blown out, and I'd rather avoid having to repair that part of my spirit body.</p><p></p><p>It seemed that Cobalt and I shared some kind of similar factor within our souls, or should I say lack there of. I immediately inquired on whether or not he had a proper soul. He didn't answer me because he was unsure, which is completely reasonable, I shouldn't have even asked such a question. He commanded his friends to stand down before we would begin to figure out what happened.</p><p></p><p>I suppose this is a good time to explain what 'abilities' or 'powers' I use in the spirit world. I'm not sure how I acquired it, or learned it, or how long I've had it, but I think I have the ability to copy the powers of comrades. I'm not sure how to describe it, if someone leaves a lasting impression within my mind I generate a power under their name or I copy something they can do. It's kind of handy, but I wish I fully understood it.</p><p></p><p>I believe Cobalt had the reverse ability of mine, where as he could turn a field on around him to negate any form of magical ability (I actually have something like this too, but it gives me a headache as well). So if I 'create', I guess Cobalt would 'destroy'. We observed after the contact, that everyone around us had both of our abilities. The most common ability people found they had was the ability to suddenly generate energy-like fire that could alter its properties. This energy propulsion ability of mine was allocated as #1, so I wasn't surprised. (You can skip the next paragraph if you dislike my silly explanations, or you can stop reading since I guess I'm pretty silly in general, sorry.)</p><p></p><p>Oh, I should probably begin to mention that I number the abilities I've mastered, sort of for organizational purposes. It's mostly to not give myself a headache. My inner geek/dork also occasionally gives them names, like #1 is called "Judge of the Dead", because the flames remind me of Yama, the Judge of the Dead in Japanese mythology, said to also govern fire. The number order is odd. I used to number them by order of which I got them, but it got out of hand when I started experimenting. The numbers range from -1 to 22, with spots #7, 9, 16, 18, and 19 being open. </p><p></p><p>Ah, it seems my bed time has approached. I'll have to continue this later if people wish me to, although I doubt it. I hope you enjoyed the silly story, maybe if I'm less chopped for time I'll actually convert these into an actual story format.</p></div>The Spirit World Chronicles: The Borderlands - A Fictional Transition Into the Near-Earth Plane - Part 2/2https://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/the-spirit-world-chronicles-the-borderlands-a-fictional-12014-07-17T14:37:00.000Z2014-07-17T14:37:00.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><a href="http://imagecache2.allposters.com/IMAGES/ARA/1097.jpg" target="_blank"><img width="398" height="314" class="align-left" style="width:252px;height:208px;" src="http://imagecache2.allposters.com/IMAGES/ARA/1097.jpg" alt="1097.jpg" /></a>Written by Wes Annac, The Culture of Awareness - <a href="http://tinyurl.com/l2rekf7">http://tinyurl.com/l2rekf7</a></p><div id="success" style="margin-left:40px;display:inline;"></div><p></p><p>Concluded from <a href="http://cultureofawareness.com/2014/07/16/the-spirit-world-chronicles-the-borderlands-a-fictional-transition-into-the-near-earth-plane-part-12/">Part 1</a></p><p></p><p>Mr. Johnson’s mother then tells him that he’s arrived at the Borderlands and that she intends to help him understand his transition before he glimpses the next, purer fourth-dimensional realm.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“He asks what his mother is doing here and she says, ‘I have come to make you feel comfortable during this transition period.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“You see, I was a little bit psychic when I was on Earth, if you remember, and sometimes said strange things and people were a little wary of me as a result, but it prepared me for this place so that, when I came across, I didn’t see this village at all but saw the next stage, which you will also see in a little while.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I knew that you would have a more difficult time because you never believed in an afterlife and only believed there was the Earth and that when you were dead you were dead.” (1)<span id="more-38123"></span></p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The more ‘aware’ we are in this life and the more we prepare for the life that waits for us, the easier it’ll be to adjust to things that might’ve been more difficult if we were close-minded. Our fictitious Mr. Johnson didn’t believe in the afterlife or anything else latently spiritual, and this is why he was first taken to the Borderlands.</p><p></p><p>His mother, however, was slightly aware of spirit and the place we go when our physical bodies die, and for this reason, she was able to greet the purer realms. Even though these people aren’t technically real, what’s being said here is applicable to any real transition.</p><p></p><p>As Mr. Johnson’s mother tells him, the Borderlands are a place where one’s greatest retirement fantasies become a reality. This is, of course, so people can enjoy the virtually unlimited time they spend in this place.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“So they have constructed or, rather, your mind in conjunction with the people who care for you here – have constructed this image around you of this village.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“It is the type of place you would have liked to have retired to. You often talked about it and here is it. It is real for as long as you wish it to be real and until you feel comfortable with your transition. I will come back and talk to you again but now I would like you to rest for a while.’” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>How great would it be to get to spend as much time as you want in your personal heaven, without anyone telling you it’s time to leave and see what the next realm has to offer? I’m sure a lot of people spend years; decades in the comfortable Borderlands before moving on, and it’d be great to have an unlimited amount of time to be and do whatever you want.</p><p></p><p>After their hectic earthly lives, most people deserve this time!</p><p></p><p>Mr. Johnson then lays his head down for a deep slumber before waking up to find his transition guide and two other entities in the room with him.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Suddenly [his mother] disappears and he longs for her to come back but the man, who is still with him, says, ‘She will come back so don’t fret over her going. You cannot lose anyone on this side and you will see her again. You do need a rest so wouldn’t you like to go through to the bedroom?’ and he shows him through to a very pleasant little bedroom with a single bed in it.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Mr. Johnson does feel very tired. He lies down on the bed and the instant his head touches the pillow he falls asleep.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“When he awakens the man is still there and, standing next to him, is another man in a brightly coloured robe not dressed in an Earth-contemporary fashion at all. There is also another being present who appears to be surrounded by a gold and silver light, but Mr. Johnson has difficulty seeing him. It is as though he is only ‘half there’.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Mr. Johnson sits up and remembers that the man had said he had died and so asks what he is supposed to do now.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>It’d be silly to expect to have only one guide when we reach the fourth dimension, and plenty of fourth-dimensional souls are interested in our transition and what they can do to assist us.</p><p></p><p>Some of them will help us understand more about what the fourth dimension is like, while others will simply offer comfort and solace, letting us know that we’ve reached a much more infinite and vibrant state of consciousness than our former.</p><p></p><p>Mr. Johnson’s guides then take him across the Borderlands’ veil into another, higher fourth-dimensional realm, which he notices is similar to the place he was just at but lighter.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The being in the coloured robe says, ‘Come with me, please, Mr. Johnson’. He takes him out of his house and down the road to what looks like the village boundary and, through this cloudy, misty boundary, Mr. Johnson can see quite a different scene.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There are still houses and trees and hills and woodlands, but everything seems more vibrant and the people he can see on that side of the barrier are wearing coloured robes. They are talking and relaxing. Some are sitting on benches, some are reading, but they all seem more detached from the village he appears to be in.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>They’re likely detached from the village because they’ve already raised their vibration enough that they don’t need to be in it anymore. The Borderlands seem reserved for the people who could really use them, and people who’ve moved on from them have no real reason to go back, beyond helping their loved ones when they pass on.</p><p></p><p>The conditions of the realm Mr. Johnson’s now in are quite different from the Borderlands, despite the things they have in common, as the Persian Gentlemen (this story’s author) tells us.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“This other dimension seems less ‘worldly’; it is far more ethereal and he can see that the sky has coloured streams of lights in it, and also various patches of colour, a little like the Aurora Borealis on Earth but far more subtle and colourful. As he looks at some of the buildings they appear to change.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Sometimes they appear to be traditional; sometimes they appear to be made out of light, as though he is looking at the inner as well as the outer structure of them.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The Borderlands closely resemble earth so the people who are there can be comfortable, but the realms beyond them carry more fourth-dimensional qualities. These realms are expanded from the Borderlands, and as we continue raising our vibration, we’ll find that every realm is more beautiful and indescribable than the last.</p><p></p><p>Apparently, Mr. Johnson still had work to do before he could live in the amazing realm he was taken to.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The being in the coloured robe turns to him and says, ‘Mr. Johnson, this is the next stage in your journey, but you cannot actually get there yet because you have a lot of pollution around you from the Earth Plane.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“You bought into it so heavily that we have to first convince you that you are still alive and, second, acclimatise you to this land I am showing you, which is the next stage on your journey and somewhere you will live for some time.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We can’t reach a state of consciousness that our vibration isn’t aligned with, and if we carry too much darkness or distortion within, we’ll have to work to clear it before we can experience the higher, refined planes of existence. Mr. Johnson and plenty of other, actual people have done this work before reaching the higher fourth-dimensional planes, and they’re given all of the ‘time’ they need.</p><p></p><p>In our final quote, Mr. Johnson is told that when the realization sets in that he’s an infinite spirit, he’ll be better able to align his vibration the higher realm he was taken to.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“What we would like you to do now is to go back to your house and the man who came for you (that is his job, by the way, to come and take people over to the Spirit Worlds) will answer any questions you may have over the next few days (at least they will seem to you like days).</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Then, when you have realised where you are, that you are a spirit and that you cannot die, you can then go through this barrier and we can introduce you to life on the other side of it.” (7)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>After the important realization-based work is done, Mr. Johnson and everyone else in his position are able to fully see what the other side has to offer. They’re able to commune with deceased friends and family; find their higher-dimensional passion and work away; build and create things for the sake of others; and achieve plenty more amazing feats.</p><p></p><p>Even though this was a fictional account, it closely matches most of the other accounts we’ve heard about the transition into the fourth dimension. We still have plenty to learn about the Borderlands, but this story has satisfied my personal hunger to know more about them.</p><p></p><p>We’ll continue talking about them in future segments, with actual channeled reports about their conditions and the things people learn in them, and when we’re finished with this discussion, we’ll move on and learn what the higher fourth-dimensional realms have to offer.</p><p></p><p>Given that we’re believed to be passing through the fourth dimension, the things we’re learning here could very well become common knowledge in the immediate future. The more we learn, the more our vibration expands, and I’ll continue to write these reports with appreciation for the nearly endless accounts we’ve been given about the fourth dimension.</p><p></p><p>Wes Annac – Always excited to learn about the higher realms.</p><p></p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p></p><ol><li><em>The Persian Gentleman, A Beginner’s Guide to What Happens Next – The Passing of Mr. Johnson.</em> On the Happy Medium Website.

Some of the material examined in this series dates back to nearly a century ago, and the referenced sources discuss a wide range of topics that have to do with life after death and the conditions of the realms beyond.</em></p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content"><em>Related reading</em> – <a href="http://www.wakingtimes.com/2014/06/18/died-eyes-open/">Julian Wash: I Died With My Eyes Open</a></p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">Throughout the discussions we’ve had so far, we learned primarily about what it’s like to pass on from the earth – what it’s like to meet one’s friends and family members, what passing on is like in times of war, etc. – and now, I’d like to move on and examine the fourth dimension itself.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">What are the conditions of the place we go when we die? Are there various planes and sub-planes, or is it one dimension where everyone exists together? The sources we’ll hear from here answer this and plenty more questions, and the remainder of the discussions we’ll have will focus on the fourth dimension and what its realms are like.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">We have plenty of material to examine about this subject, and I don’t know about any of you, but I’m excited to learn all about the fourth dimension and the things we’re able to do when we leave the earth behind. Humanity’s headed for the fifth dimension, but we’re believed to be passing through the fourth and we might as well learn as much about it as we can.<span id="more-38099"></span></p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">I always love learning about the higher realms, and the things our sources have told us about the fourth-dimensional realms are interesting and insightful to say the least. Soon enough, we’ll look down on the fourth dimension from the fifth with an immense amount of love and joy, but for now, most of us still don’t know as much about it as we could.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">For this installment, we’re going to examine a fictitious account of a person dying and making their way into spirit, with help from a transition guide. A fellow known as the ‘Persian Gentleman’ tells the story of one ‘Mr. Johnson’, who makes his way from the third dimension to the fourth, discovering a wealth of amazing things along the way.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">Here’s a quote from Steve Beckow about the passage we’re going to examine.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“In this fictional account, the average man, ‘Mr. Johnson,’ has had a heart attack. He continues to go about his daily rounds, but accompanied by a stranger, his transition guide. No one pays any attention to him. When the transition guide finally convinces him he is dead, he follows the guide to the near earth plane.” (1)</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content">The purpose of this story is to describe what the fourth-dimensional realm we’re going to learn about, referred to as <em>the Borderland</em>s, is like. <em>The Borderlands</em> is the place afterlife initiates first go when they move on from the earth, and the purpose of this realm is to help them understand and cope with their transition.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">This is usually the realm where one meets departed friends and family, becomes familiar with their transition guides, and generally gets used to the new life they’re going to live. Mr. Johnson reaches the Borderlands with help from his transition guide, and in our first quote, his fictional death and the resulting transition take place.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“Suddenly, in the corner of the room, a light appears and the room grows dim. The gentleman (his transition guide) beckons to him and says,’ Please follow me into the light, into the next stage of your existence.’ Mr. Johnson feels drawn towards the light, as there is a warmth to it together with a love he has never felt before.</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“It is a little like being under anesthetic because he forgets about his wife; he forgets about his daughters and forgets about his office job, and his car, and his house and everything else that seemed so important to him this morning. He follows the man through into the light and the light surrounds him. He cannot see anything for a few minutes – only the light.” (2)</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content">‘Mr. Johnson’ seems to easily forget about everything that would’ve otherwise bound him to the third-dimensional earth, because he’s enamored with the light that’s just appeared before him. I’d be enamored with this light too, and I’m sure it’d be pretty easy to forget about the things that keep us tethered to the earth when we perceive it and the place it takes us to.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">Mr. Johnson is then taken to the Borderlands, which, to his surprise, look a lot like the earth he was just on.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“Then, as it subsides, he finds himself in a village that is just like a village on Earth with walls, trees, houses and roads (although there aren’t any cars) and people going about their business. Mr. Johnson says to the man, who is still standing next to him, ‘I thought you said I was dead,’ and the man tells him that he is!</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“’Well, this is a strange Heaven’ says Mr. Johnson and the man replies, ‘This is an initiation point; this is somewhere that will seem familiar to you. Come, there is somewhere here where you can live for a little while.’” (3)</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content">The ‘initiation point’ will always seem familiar to the people who visit it, because their guides want them to be as comfortable with their transition as possible. It won’t help anyone to perceive a dazzling and overwhelming higher-dimensional landscape, and they need to be shown the most amazing things spirit has to offer as slowly as possible.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">Mr. Johnson is then taken to meet a young lady – a lady he doesn’t initially recognize.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“Mr. Johnson then follows him to a rather pleasant house. He goes in through the door and there, sitting in the living room on a settee, is his mother. He doesn’t realize that it is his mother at first, instead wondering who the young lady is sitting on the settee with dark hair.</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“His mother then explains that she needs to adjust the way that she is appearing to him. She closes her eyes and thinks for a moment and suddenly she is just as Mr. Johnson remembers her: that frail old lady who was in a hospital bed for a few months before she passed over.</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“He is shocked because this is not some apparition of his mother but his mother in the flesh, just as she was. She gets up and they embrace and there is a tearful reunion.” (4)</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content">In the fourth dimension, we don’t look like we did in our final days on earth. We might temporarily embody our earthly appearance to help people who’d just passed over remember us, but by no means do we have to remain in the form we were in before we passed away.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">Mr. Johnson then gets his first taste of instantaneous manifestation.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“Then he sits down and she says, ‘You had better have a cup of tea and a biscuit because you don’t look too well,’ and Mr. Johnson agrees that he would like something to eat.</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;">“Suddenly there appears on his knee a tray with a cup of tea on it and a plate with some biscuits but he doesn’t question how they got there and the tea tastes better than any tea he has ever tasted before and the biscuits are just divine.” (5)</p><p class="entry-content" style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p class="entry-content">There’s a reason the fourth dimension has been referred to as ‘heaven’.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><p class="entry-content">According to these accounts, the things we can do, feel, and experience there are wonderful, and things manifest much more quickly and easily than they do on earth. We can manifest things in the third dimension, but our manifestations take much longer to come about, whereas they’re instant in the higher realms.</p><p class="entry-content"></p><h2 class="entry-content">Footnotes:</h2><p></p><div class="entry-content"><ol><li>Note from Steve Beckow, <em>New Maps of Heaven: The Borderlands – Awakening</em> at: <a href="http://goldengaiadb.com/The_Borderlands_-_Awakening">http://goldengaiadb.com/The_Borderlands_-_Awakening</a></li><li><em>The Persian Gentleman, A Beginner’s Guide to What Happens Next – The Passing of Mr. Johnson.</em> On the Happy Medium Website.

The method I'm using is pretty much meditating and then visualizing this really long walk to a special place. In this special place I close my eyes, and wait to join hands with someone, and when I open them its my spirit guide. Except when I get to this place, no one ever shows up :( Any theories on what I could be doing wrong? Or just helpful suggestions?</p></div>Spiritual Guidance: Connecting With Spirit is a Sacred Righthttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/spiritual-guidance-connecting-with-spirit-is-a-sacred-right2014-06-12T15:26:18.000Z2014-06-12T15:26:18.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><a href="http://www.purenlightenment.com/assets/images/channeling.gif" target="_blank"><img width="240" height="304" class="align-left" style="width:159px;height:205px;" src="http://www.purenlightenment.com/assets/images/channeling.gif" alt="channeling.gif" /></a>Conveyed through Wes Annac, The Culture of Awareness</p><p></p><p>When you attune to the energies and impressions of the higher realms, you connect with something that constantly sits within and waits to be utilized. Your reception of the energies we’re offering can be very smooth and free-flowing, but you have to have plenty of energy and willingness to interpret and expand on the impressions you’re being given.</p><p></p><p>You have to be in as receptive of a state as possible if you want to open up to us and the energy we’re sending you, and you utilize your creative energy when you channel us or do anything else that’s intended to help humanity become aware.</p><p></p><p>You have to be receptive so you can bring forth your natural, creative energy and the energy of the souls you seek to connect with, and after so long of successfully connecting with us and bringing the resulting words and energies through, it’ll become much easier to communicate with us and the impressions you receive will flow to you much more effortlessly.</p><p></p><p>As long as you continue honing your reception of the energy you’re being happily and lovingly given from the realms beyond, the purity of your connection will continue to strengthen and your perception of the spiritual nature of your existence, as well as your overall ability to connect with the divine and use that connection to help others, will strengthen just as much.<span id="more-37101"></span></p><p></p><h2>Tapping Into the Heart</h2><p></p><p>Above all, we recommend tapping into the love of the open heart space on a daily basis and making sure you don’t deplete yourselves of the creative, inspired energy you hold within. There are plenty of ways you can drain this energy, and we encourage eating light, among plenty of other things, for those of you who want to utilize it to its fullest extent.</p><p></p><p>You’re infinitely capable of connecting with the love of the open heart space and using your creative energy for progressive purposes, but if you deplete your energy or block yourselves from the love of your hearts, you’ll find that it’s much harder to channel us or complete any other creative act that would’ve ordinarily been easier.</p><p></p><p>We encourage humility for any soul who wants to continuously connect with the higher realms and produce divinely inspired creations, and too much earthly consumerism will block your channels and make it difficult to find the divine flow so many of you seek.</p><p></p><p>If you’re too enamored with the physical world to engage in your unfolding perception of the spiritual, your connection will be blocked and you may wonder why you suddenly can’t feel the energy and inspiration you once felt naturally.</p><p></p><p>Creativity is a beautiful and spiritually inspired thing, and we never encourage draining your natural energetic source of creativity in favor of finite, earthly things that don’t satisfy as much as utilizing your greater perception and creativity.</p><p></p><p>Getting active is one of many ways you can increase your reception of the divine and your ability to effortlessly connect with the higher realms, and you can also spend plenty of time in nature, revitalizing your channels and nourishing your spirits as much and as often as possible.</p><p></p><p>Some of you are blessed to have nature spots very close to your homes, and we wholeheartedly encourage utilizing these spots and gaining as much energy and vitality as you feel you can. In doing so, you’ll expand your greater perception like never before and your reception of the divine will increase into eternity.</p><p></p><p>We talk about the divine flow and connecting with spirit so much for two reasons.</p><p></p><p>One is because this subject is on the mind of our scribe, who’s interpreting our energies and having us shed light on matters that are important to him, and the other is because this flow will creatively liberate every seeker who taps into it in a real and pure way.</p><p></p><p>What we mean is that any creative project or venture you seek to embark on will be strengthened exponentially by tapping into the divine flow and letting it be responsible for the things you produce.</p><p></p><p>You’re still responsible for these things, but once you step into this flow, you can think of yourself as a conduit for a greater aspect of yourself who works through you and produces things you would’ve never thought yourselves able to produce.</p><p></p><p>In connecting with your higher selves and the numerous, uncountable guides that wait for you to connect with them, you’ll find a wealth of important and needed assistance along your paths as well as a strengthened spiritual perception and a greater understanding of the importance of everything you experience.</p><p></p><h2>Highs and Lows</h2><p></p><p>You’re all going through difficult but necessary trials, and the earth experience entails going through highs and lows; ups and downs that you’re tasked with navigating in as centered and balanced of a way as you can. Some of the challenges you’ll face will test you more than you expect, and others will be easier as long as you remain in the aforementioned balanced space.</p><p></p><p>No matter what you experience, inner harmony is the key to navigating it. This goes for anything and everything that could possibly make its way to you, and as long as you’re loving, peaceful, and centered within, nothing will take your sense of security away from you.</p><p></p><p>Security isn’t to be found in your outer reality – it’s to be found in the calm assuredness of the open heart space. The real security every soul seeks is in knowing Source and themselves, and when you explore your inner realms and your metaphysical capabilities, such as channeling, you’ll find the security so many of you search so actively for.</p><p></p><p>The physical body is the sacred, holy temple that one can use to constantly praise Source and themselves, and the spirit that sits in the body is the real self; the authentic self who can never die. Your real selves will always exist, and when your physical body perishes, you’ll simply drop it and become your true, etheric selves, free to explore your reality in a much less dense and inhibited way.</p><p></p><p>Your higher self is the result of your experiences gained in the lower dimensions, and your authentic self will meet and merge with this higher soul-fragment in due time. In fact, this merging is already taking place, and even though I lean on my scribe’s vocabulary to communicate with humanity, my scribe and I will continue to merge, as will each of you with your respective higher selves.</p><p></p><p>The higher realms (as well as your higher selves) are descending onto the earth, and likewise, all of the lower-dimensional creation on earth is ascending toward us. We’re merging our respective perceptions, and the result will be a much greater and purer perception on the part of all of humanity.</p><p></p><p>You’re continuing to pass through the fourth dimension, and like we’ve said before, much of your collective is currently rooted in a lower fourth-dimensional perception. This isn’t stopping the awakening lightworkers from bringing through as much and as pure light as they can in preparation for the events that are to come, however.</p><p></p><p>Your ascension is more gradual than many seekers think, but there are important events that help you collectively shift into a higher state of consciousness – that is, if you utilize them. The upcoming full moon on your date of Friday the 13<sup><span style="font-size:small;">th</span></sup> will prove to be one such important energetic event, and if you make an effort, you can attune to the pure energies you’re being given, which will be intensified on this date.</p><p></p><p>We want to use this opportunity to talk about superstition and the negative effect it can have on your quest for spiritual truths and revelations.</p><p></p><p>Various things, such as breaking mirrors, walking under a ladder, seeing a black cat, etc. are believed to herald negative consequences, and the date of Friday the 13<sup><span style="font-size:small;">th</span></sup> has fallen into this category. What a lot of people on your planet don’t know is that the negatively oriented superstitions that preach fear are aligned with your cabal’s agenda to limit humanity’s greater perception with irrelevant dogma, and every form of superstition can be transcended.</p><p></p><h2>You Create Your Reality</h2><p></p><p>In reality, it doesn’t matter what certain dates, symbols, or numbers mean to other people on your planet, because you can each choose what these symbols mean for you. If, for instance, the upcoming date of Friday the 13<sup><span style="font-size:small;">th</span></sup> and the coinciding full moon could be seen as positive for your spiritual development, then you’ll experience the benefits from such a belief because your create your reality.</p><p></p><p>No matter what a symbol, date, etc. means to someone else, you’re in the driver’s seat and you have the full ability to decide what it means for you.</p><p></p><p>You can make every day a reason to celebrate if you want. Imagine, dearest souls, every day being a holiday wherein you celebrate the joyful nature of your existence and the fact that you’re able to perceive such wonders and beauties in such a lower-vibrational place.</p><p></p><p>Especially on your upcoming Friday the 13<sup><span style="font-size:small;">th</span></sup>, you can use these self-created holidays to attune to an increasingly pure banquet of Source energy, and if you do, you’ll find that your consciousness and that of the people around you started to grow in the days and weeks afterward.</p><p></p><p>The lightworkers who are inclined to acting as conduits for a greater amount and purity of energy will want to be hard at work on this date, day and night, receiving and transmitting the powerful waves of energy that’ll be emitted.</p><p></p><p>This date is just one of many that herald a massive increase in the amount and purity of energy you’re being given, and the more active the conscious public is in assimilating and spreading the energies around, the more people they’ll be able to reach.</p><p></p><p>Of course, they’re reaching everyone on your planet no matter what, but some earthly souls have a very thick, ego-driven shell to break through that we hope for these energies to help penetrate.</p><p></p><p>Your planet and everyone on it is given freewill, but the higher selves of a plethora of earthly souls are ready to make the soul-level connections that their sparks on earth have been cut off from, and as such, myriad lightworkers and starseeds have been called to your planet to help these souls make the connections you each deserve to make.</p><p></p><p>Connecting with spirit is a sacred right you each carry within, but nobody can force you to act on this right. Nobody in the higher realms can force you to see beyond the very strong illusion that exists on your planet and into the light of your developing higher-dimensional perception, and only you can make the connections you want to make.</p><p></p><p>Making these connections is one thing, but maintaining them is something else entirely, as our and plenty of other scribes are beginning to learn.</p><p></p><p>Once you realize you’ve been endowed with an ability to connect with the higher realms or do anything else that benefits the conscious public and, eventually, all of humanity, you’re encouraged to pursue it as much as you can – to ‘milk it for all it’s worth’ as we’ve said before.</p><p></p><p>As we’ve also said before, the purpose of the earthly existence of many of you is to bring through the energies of your higher selves and guides, so feel free to start working harder than ever before and enjoying the deeper connections that result.</p><p></p><p>Your connection with spirit can be deeper than you ever imagined or envisioned, and all you need to do is make an effort to keep opening up to the divine and producing as much and as pure spiritually inspired material as you can.</p><p></p><p>Our scribe recently made the decision to start channeling every day, for example, and this is a huge commitment that requires daily dedication to the channeling flow and to offering oneself for the expression of a higher aspect of one’s consciousness.</p><p></p><h2>The Importance of Commitment</h2><p></p><p>Channeling can be easy, but acting on the everlasting flow you can each access is difficult if one isn’t fully committed to the process.</p><p></p><p>We’re confident that the growing number of souls who seek to channel us will commit to the process in due time, and we, like many of you, are excited to see just how many souls choose to connect with us and how easy it’ll be for an increasingly aware humanity to make the connections you’ve been convinced you’re too limited to make.</p><p></p><p>Humanity has been misled about the existence of the spiritual realms and every soul who resides in them, as well as the existence of various otherworldly civilizations who are very close to your planet, and there’s a lot for you to learn about your spiritual nature and the infinitely deep ability you have to connect with the higher realms and even call for your star brethren to show themselves to you.</p><p></p><p>This is a tricky subject, because your star brethren are very excited to show themselves to conscious seekers who won’t be overwhelmed by their presence, but they have to be careful because in any given moment, hundreds of people are looking up into the same day or night sky as the seeker who wants to see a craft.</p><p></p><p>Many seekers have been given sightings of your star brethren, and every time a sighting is given, extreme care and caution are taken so freewill isn’t hindered and people who aren’t ready to witness something so bold and outside their physical perception don’t have to.</p><p></p><p>Every facet of the Company of Heaven cares for humanity deeply, your star brethren included, and we would never want to overwhelm or scare any soul into closing their greater perception and refusing to see what lies beyond your physical realm.</p><p></p><p>This is the hardest thing about helping awaken humanity: if an earthly soul is given too pure or intense of a glimpse into the higher realms or the souls in them, they’re likely to shut down and abandon any greater perception they might’ve otherwise sought.</p><p></p><p>We want you to be awake and aware, but we want you to wake up in your own time and not in a time that’s designated for you by someone else.</p><p></p><p>The seekers who want to witness a craft and are willing to express patience, however, can make a request in their minds and hearts for a sighting and see what happens, and many seekers can attest that this method will offer the sighting one seeks. Everyone’s different, however, and some seekers might not witness a sighting for various reasons.</p><p></p><p>One is, again, because we don’t want to overwhelm anyone else, and another is because witnessing a craft or a series of them could shatter what was left of a seeker’s physical paradigm if the sighting is particularly bold or intense.</p><p></p><p>Many seekers are confident that they can witness something bold or physically unexplainable, but some seekers who’ve been given visions of billions of craft in the sky and other, similar phenomena in their dreams have noted the uneasy feelings these things caused in them.</p><p></p><p>You’ll be overwhelmed if you’re awakened too quickly, and for this and plenty of other reasons, we can’t express the importance of patience enough.</p><p></p><p>Let whatever happens flow naturally, and if it isn’t what you expect or you feel as if you can handle something more intense, make a request to your higher self and put yourself on a different timeline where you’re more susceptible to witnessing intense phenomena.</p><p></p><p>We’ll make our final expressions for this communication with the utmost support and encouragement to keep expressing the flowing love you’re beginning to rediscover you carry within.</p><p></p><p>Strengthen your perception of this inner love whenever possible, because without it, your lives turn cold and hollow and we note the anguishing feelings that can result. Keep your channels pure and flowing, and allow your physical body – your place of worship – to be as clear and pure as possible.</p><p></p><p>You’re holy beings who are worthier of Source’s all-encompassing love than you yet realize, and you’re given the love and support of the entirety of the Company of Heaven. Remember this in your darkest and most difficult times, and always seek to expand the already strong flow you’re tapping into with grace and ease.</p><p></p><p>Thank you to my higher self and spiritual guides.</p><p></p><p><em>I’m a 21 year old awakening seeker and creator of</em> <a href="http://cultureofawareness.com/">The Culture of Awareness</a> <em>daily news site.</em></p><p></p><p>The Culture of Awareness <em>features daily spiritual and alternative news, as well as articles I’ve written and more</em>. <em>Its purpose is to awaken and uplift by providing material that’s spiritually inspired and/or related to the fall of the planetary elite and our entrance into a positive future.</em></p><p></p><p><em>I can also be found at</em> <a href="http://wesannac.com/">Conscious Oneness</a>, <a href="http://goldenageofgaia.com/author/wes-annac/">The Golden Age of Gaia</a>, <a href="http://lightworkers.org/user/36129">Lightworkers.org</a>, <a href="http://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/profile/WesA'">Ashtar Command Crew</a>, Facebook (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/wes.annac">Wes Annac</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/aquariusparadigm">The Culture of Awareness</a>), and <a href="https://twitter.com/WesAnnac">Twitter</a>.</p><p></p><p><em>Photo Credit:</em> <a href="http://www.purenlightenment.com/assets/images/channeling.gif">Pureenlightenment.com</a></p></div>Ready to Live For Spirithttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/ready-to-live-for-spirit2014-04-30T15:23:49.000Z2014-04-30T15:23:49.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><a href="http://pastorderick.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/124901450_640.jpg?w=560&h=420" target="_blank"><img width="560" height="419" class="align-left" style="width:270px;height:209px;" src="http://pastorderick.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/124901450_640.jpg?w=560&h=420" alt="124901450_640.jpg?w=560&h=420" /></a>Written by Wes Annac, The Aquarius Paradigm</p><p></p><p>I’m ready to start living a spiritually rooted lifestyle. I’m ready to welcome and integrate a higher vibration in every single moment, and when I look at the life I’ve lived so far, I see that there’s a lot of room for improvement.</p><p></p><p>What can we do to live the kind of lives we advocate living? What can we do to find and keep ourselves on a constant higher vibration? I’ve written before about the divine qualities and the immense personal changes we’ll experience by rooting ourselves in them, but what can we do to start expressing them and transforming our lives?</p><p></p><p>It’s actually much easier than most seekers think. Living divinely inspired lives is one of the simplest, yet most difficult, things we’ll ever do. It’s only difficult because of the extent to which the mind will fight us in our quest to root ourselves unflinchingly in the heart, but we don’t have to let the mind or ego stop us from living the way we truly want to live.</p><p></p><p>We can live an enjoyable and spiritually nourishing life if we make an effort to, and I’m starting to realize that a lot of things out there will hold us back from such a life if we let them. Gluttony is one of many things that’ll hold us back from being the divine beings we have the potential to be, and it, like everything else, is intended to be transcended if we want to root ourselves in spirit.<span id="more-35924"></span></p><p></p><p>There are a lot of things we can do to welcome a higher vibration and enjoy a much more loving and free-flowing existence, and I can say from experience so far that getting out of the mind is among the best things. The mind is happy to consume; indulge; judge; find comfort; hate; fear; express anger.</p><p></p><p>It’ll basically do anything and everything it can to hold us back.</p><p></p><p>The great news is that we don’t have to let it any longer. We don’t have to let the mind stop us from being the exalted spiritual beings we have the potential to be, and personally, I’m examining every aspect of my life to see if it’s helpful or hurtful to my growth as a soul.</p><p></p><p>Indulgence in lower-vibrational foods and habit patterns? <em>Move beyond it</em>. Unhealthy and animalistic lust? <em>Bye.</em> Greed, selfishness, and self-martyrdom, which is the polar opposite of selfishness? <em>See ‘em off.</em></p><p></p><p>I recognize that all of these things hold me back from living the true, divinely inspired life I want to live. Lust has halted my soul growth plenty of times, along with the other aforementioned qualities, and I’m ready to adopt a loving, spiritually balanced lifestyle instead of feeding the literal and metaphorical beast.</p><p></p><p>I’m ready to invite the divine into every facet of my life – to live this life for spirit instead of simply talking about it. It’s easy to write about living a spiritually inspired life, but actually doing it takes real and solid effort to move beyond the things that could effortlessly hold us back if we let them.</p><p></p><p>I’m ready for a life of simplicity – a life where I don’t need to strive to achieve certain things. Instead of striving, I’m ready to let the divine gifts flow from a simple, balanced place and see beyond the mind’s attempts to trap me back in a lower, selfish state of consciousness.</p><p></p><p>I’d say that I’m ready for all of humanity to adopt such a lifestyle, but who am I to dictate how others should act or behave? Your existence is yours to live how you choose, but personally, I’m ready to live for the divine like never before instead of complacently indulging in materiality and myriad other qualities that nearly halt the growth of the soul.</p><p></p><p>We have far more potential to live our lives for spirit than we realize, and there are plenty of ways we can start doing so. It really only takes moving beyond the mind and letting the brimming heart space become more influential, and when we do, our heart-centered discernment will kick in and remind us when we aren’t acting in alignment with the divine.</p><p></p><p>I can discern every single time I’m acting out of alignment with spirit. When my vibration dips, willingly or unwillingly, I’m always able to realize it. It’s simply that taking the steps to repair such a vibrational dip can be difficult, but I recognize that if I didn’t let it happen in the first place, those steps wouldn’t need to be taken.</p><p></p><p>My primary obstacle is indulgence. It doesn’t matter if I indulge in food or anything else – taking myself off of a higher vibration for the purpose of indulgence holds me back and makes it harder to reach a clear and pure space again.</p><p></p><p>Since I understand this, I’m ready to change my ways and start living for the divine like never before. I’m ready to fashion my entire existence around the greater states of consciousness I want to reenter, and if I don’t start this work now, it’ll never get done.</p><p></p><p>There is no more waiting; no more complacency; no more letting myself think these personal changes will be made at some undetermined point in the future. It’s time to get to work – not only to repair this planet, but to make the personal changes I need to make so I can be the clearest and purest vessel for spiritual expression possible.</p><p></p><p>I’m used to telling myself that big changes like this will be difficult, but honestly, they don’t have to be. They can be as easy as anything else if I simply let them come about, and the only thing that stops them from happening is my mind-centered focus on gluttony and indulgence. No more.</p><p></p><p>No more do I want to remove myself from a clear state of consciousness to consume something lower-vibrational (and, in the case of food, probably genetically modified). I, like all of you, am here on a mission to raise consciousness – mine and the rest of humanity’s – and continuing to hold myself back for the purpose of accruing physical pleasure just doesn’t make sense.</p><p></p><p>Let overindulgence be a thing of the past in this new era. Let every sacred godspark who realizes their potential act on their inner drive to build their lives around spirit, because we have far too much work to do to keep holding ourselves back.</p><p></p><p>I don’t want to feel my clearest and purest only when I’m doing this work – I want to feel that way <em>all the time</em>. I want to break out of my shell and adopt the discipline that’s necessary to root myself in the unfolding higher vibration we’re all beginning to feel and access, and I certainly require some discipline.</p><p></p><p>I think discipline is an underrated divine quality, and I think it’s more important than a lot of seekers realize. It’s more than easy to let ourselves falter in our discipline, but far too difficult to climb back up to a higher vibration once we do. For me especially, discipline is an essential tool that can be used to live for spirit and away from everything lower-vibrational.</p><p></p><p>Discipline and balance are two of the greatest and most important tools in our cultivation of a higher state of consciousness, and when we understand this, we’ll be able to use them to root ourselves in the open heart and live constant, divinely inspired lives.</p><p></p><p>I think this can especially be said for those of us who are here to anchor a higher vibration. We’re the examples, and as much as I hate to say it, I haven’t been the example I’d like to start being.</p><p></p><p>I’m not proud of my mistakes, but I recognize that they’re stepping stones in my ultimate growth and development. There’ll come a time when everything everyone’s ever done – good and bad – will have light shone on it, and we’ll all be able to see each other’s previous higher and lower-vibrational actions.</p><p></p><p>Those among us with skeletons in their closets will seek love, forgiveness, and understanding, and hopefully, humanity will be able to offer such understanding by the time this happens. I know what mistakes I’ve made, and I know of the damage they’ve caused to my soul growth.</p><p></p><p>What I’m saying here is that I’m ready to stop making those mistakes – to stop eating things I know hurt my body and keep me from a greater perception; to stop letting lust impede love; to stop being selfish and angry when love doesn’t seem present.</p><p></p><p>I’m ready to move beyond everything that’s held me back, and I’m ready to use discipline and balance to do it. It’ll certainly be a process, but it doesn’t have to be difficult and, in fact, it can be enjoyable. Why not enjoy a lower-vibrational purge that helps one feel spirit like never before?</p><p></p><p>I think a huge personal change is about to take place, and maybe this article will inspire some of you out there to make similar changes yourselves. I’m ready to move beyond words and start taking action to be the responsible spiritual adult I and we all are destined to be, and I can see a potent personal revolution on the horizon.</p><p></p><p>We’re here to change this planet, and to do so, we <em>have</em> to be the change we want to see. Again, I don’t have any interest in telling any of you how you should live your lives, but it’s pretty clear what helps and hurts our soul growth. It really isn’t difficult to determine, and we only need to discern things by their vibration.</p><p></p><p>If the vibration of something is low or dense, you can discern it as being unhelpful to your soul growth. If its vibration is expansive, loving, and supportive, then you can discern it as being helpful. It’s really that simple, but the actions we take from the point of discernment determine how difficult the whole process is.</p><p></p><p>If we’re truly ready and willing to live for spirit, changing our lower ways should be relatively simple.</p><p></p><p>I’m not going to say it won’t be difficult for some of you, but this journey’s meant to be challenging. We’re here to move beyond the lower vibrations in every sense, and now’s the best time to start letting the brimming heart influence us more than the striving mind.</p><p></p><p>Wes Annac – Inspired to create change by being change in action.</p><p></p><p><em>I’m a 20 year old awakening seeker and creator of</em> <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/">The Aquarius Paradigm</a> <em>daily news site.</em></p><p></p><p>The Aquarius Paradigm <em>features daily spiritual and alternative news, as well as articles I’ve written and more</em>. <em>Its purpose is to awaken and uplift by providing material that’s spiritually inspired and/or related to the fall of the planetary elite and our entrance into a positive future.</em></p><p></p><p><em>I can also be found at</em> <a href="http://wesannac.com/">Conscious Oneness</a>, <a href="http://goldenageofgaia.com/author/wes-annac/">The Golden Age of Gaia</a>, <a href="http://lightworkers.org/user/36129">Lightworkers.org</a>, <a href="http://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/profile/WesA'">Ashtar Command Crew</a>, Facebook (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/wes.annac">Wes Annac</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/aquariusparadigm">The Aquarius Paradigm</a>), and <a href="https://twitter.com/WesAnnac">Twitter</a>.</p><p></p><p><a href="http://pastorderick.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/124901450_640.jpg?w=560&h=420">Photo Credit</a></p></div>Spiritual Guidance: Spirit is Becoming a Realityhttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/spiritual-guidance-spirit-is-becoming-a-reality2014-04-22T16:05:07.000Z2014-04-22T16:05:07.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><a href="http://mccaule2.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/spirituality.jpg?w=604" target="_blank"><img width="446" height="414" class="align-left" style="width:196px;height:165px;" src="http://mccaule2.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/spirituality.jpg?w=604" alt="spirituality.jpg?w=604" /></a>Conveyed through Wes Annac, The Aquarius Paradigm</p><p></p><p>Your capabilities extend far beyond what you currently perceive, and part of the reason for our presence around each of you is to help you remember the greatness you’re capable of.</p><p></p><p>We want you to be able to release any beliefs that preach division from yourselves as facets of the infinite, omnipotent, divine consciousness of the Creator, and we want you to understand the importance of your earthly presence when it seems as if you aren’t contributing anything of value.</p><p></p><p>The mind harbors an immense amount of judgment and hatred, and you’re intended to see beyond its mechanisms and tendencies as you embrace the fullness of the open heart space and flow with an expanded perception.</p><p></p><p>Opening the heart and finding solace in the energy it offers will enable you to enjoy your lives in new and unprecedented ways, and the dullness that’s clogged the minds of so many seekers will be replaced with a sense of love and motivation to do anything and everything one can for the restoration of consciousness.<span id="more-35680"></span></p><p></p><h2>Necessary ‘Chaos’</h2><p></p><p>A lot has and will continue to happen on your planet that could be seen as chaotic, but ultimately, it’s all a part of the divine plan. With everything you’ll learn, we ask you not to fall into fear or any of the other lower qualities that inhibit your creation of the utopian society of your dreams.</p><p></p><p>You have to be able to love yourselves and everyone around you if you want to enter a positive future, and if humanity continues along your old ways of division and hatred, the path ahead will be much more difficult. This is why we encourage everyone to become active in expressing and radiating the divine qualities, because it’s time for things to change on the earth in a very good way.</p><p></p><p>We and you alike are ready to see positive change on your planet, but we can’t be the sole force to bring this change about.</p><p></p><p>As much as we’d love to bring you back into a higher vibration ourselves, the work must be done by an aware and willing humanity or you’ll continue to be left in the dark. Fortunately, the rising awareness is enabling a growing number of seekers to start being the change they desire to see, and this is causing a ripple effect in the collective consciousness.</p><p></p><p>We encourage you to go within as much as possible, because spirit can’t be sought outwardly with the same purity it can inwardly.</p><p></p><p>Spirit has to be sought to be attained, but one can’t successfully seek it in the confines of the physical mind. One must look beyond their mental perception and limitation to embrace spirit and everything it has to offer, and you’re learning to do this now as you ready yourselves to step into the fullness of your multidimensional forms.</p><p></p><p>Allowing yourselves to connect with your sacred center will enable you to experience the numerous, endless benefits of a higher state of consciousness, and an essential aspect of reaching a greater perception is moving beyond the otherwise strong and unbreakable influence the ego has kept over so many unknowing souls.</p><p></p><p>Part of our mission in helping you is to bring awareness of the necessity to see beyond the ego, and to that extent, we work very hard to remind you of the uncountable things the open heart space will do for you when you’re rooted in it in a real and pure way.</p><p></p><p>The open heart space offers more benefits than we could hope to outline through any scribe, and along with it, we encourage you to access and open up to your myriad other chakras as you allow them to come online and bring through the greater energy you’re feeling.</p><p></p><h2>Portals to the Other Side</h2><p></p><p>Your chakras are literal energy centers; portals to the other side of the veil, which you use to bring through the energy now flooding the heart in large doses. This energy is expansive in nature, and we’re delivering it through your opening and expanding chakras to help you become aware of spirit in a much greater and purer way than you have thus far.</p><p></p><p>This energy is enabling your perception to grow at ‘breakneck speed’ as you might say, but your evolution is still a gradual process with a series of rapid leaps and bounds, most of which you have yet to experience.</p><p></p><p>Many of you have experienced intense and amazing visions that display the nature of reality and the purpose of your existence, and these experiences are intended to precede your active work for the achievement of the ultimate goal: re-reaching Source in all of its purity and awesomeness.</p><p></p><p>Whether you work to become aware or to spread awareness among others, your efforts are highly needed and greatly appreciated and we encourage you to keep at them.</p><p></p><p>Some of you have been given amazing visions and signs so you could take what you’ve learned and start working for the betterment of others, and even when you simply meditate to reach a higher state of consciousness, you affect everyone around you and your planet as a whole.</p><p></p><p>Your entrance into a greater state of awareness is preceded by the work you put in to attain it, and as long as an active effort is made, such effort will be duly noted. We have a greater view of earth and the events playing out on your surface than you yet realize, and we’ve tried to stress this in various communications so we could open your eyes to its reality.</p><p></p><p>You’re being assisted by an endless amount of guides who seek to help you become aware of the sacred truths that have been lost from your minds and textbooks, and we have a lot to help you remember. So much has been hidden from humanity that your focus and drive for truth are essential, and education is an important aspect of evolving from the lower realms.</p><p></p><p>You’re encouraged to expand yourselves and the knowledge you carry within in every way possible, because we want you to be able to evolve from the earth with as much knowledge and information about the lower spheres as you can soak up.</p><p></p><p>You deserve to feel the wonderful things a higher state of consciousness has to offer, and we’re driven to help you remember that your reality has always been comprised of spiritual energy that grows increasingly less dense with each evolutionary graduation you experience.</p><p></p><p>You’re evolving from realms that are quite distorted compared to the states of consciousness you’ll soon exist in, and many of you carry latent and hidden memories of these realms as a result of your ventures before the earth.</p><p></p><p>You’ve come from and will return to a pure state of consciousness free from pain and stress, and you’ll always strive to reach this state again. We note that many earthy seekers feel driven to find enlightenment in any way they can, and even though some seekers think their search will be over when they reach the fifth dimension, we’re happy to say that your drive will increase from there.</p><p></p><p>It’s our understanding that the closer one gets to Source, the stronger the drive one feels to reach a completely undistorted state of consciousness and enjoy the indescribable feelings that result.</p><p></p><p>Even though the fifth dimension isn’t the purest realm of consciousness by far, it’s much purer than the realms you’ve existed in, and as such, it’ll be wonderfully refreshing to your developing souls. Even the fourth dimension will prove refreshing, and as you pass through it, your etheric perception will continue to grow.</p><p></p><h2>A Lightening of Darkness</h2><p></p><p>With a sufficient amount of work put in to achieve a higher state of consciousness, you can expect a general lightening to take place, and your perception of the energy comprising your reality will increase as this lightening progresses. Your perception of the reality around you will lighten as you find the darkness and density that once seemed so common fading away, and for those who’ve been rooted in darkness, this process could be uncomfortable.</p><p></p><p>We can envision some seekers having initial trouble with this process as well, but with sufficient effort, they’ll be able to find their way into a higher state of consciousness as they learn to navigate the greater energy they’ll feel.</p><p></p><p>We can envision this lightening both causing and being a result of your continual passage through the fourth dimension, and we encourage those of you who find yourselves especially receptive or sensitive to spirit to enjoy the intuitional gifts you’re being given.</p><p></p><p>Spirit is becoming a reality on your planet, and with your efforts to become aware and help others do the same, the general mood will begin to shift and more people will seek spirit than ever before. We’ve spoken before about the spiritually inspired revolution soon to take place, and already, a plethora of people have introduced this idea to your collective.</p><p></p><p>We can envision it picking up among a lot of souls who suddenly feel inclined to understand their existence in a greater way, and when this happens, humanity will start making progress like never before.</p><p></p><p>Humanity’s progress is based primarily on your efforts, and so far, you’ve enabled the light to enter your collective consciousness in much greater ways than before and this is causing the lightening and refinement of your perception.</p><p></p><p>If you make it a point to attune to spirit, you’ll be able to feel and benefit from the divine flow that enables the richness so many of you are beginning to feel. Let yourselves flow with the knowledge that your lives are in your control (as well as your higher self’s), and understand that you truly are safe and everything truly is alright.</p><p></p><p>You’ll always be taken care of, even if the opposite seems true. In everything you do, you’re being looked after and guided with love, and your life paths are intended to go in the direction that best enables you to find enlightenment and be of service.</p><p></p><p>From our perspective, it’s important for all of you to understand that your lives aren’t in the control of anyone beyond yourselves. The cabal doesn’t control the people, but they’ve taken as many measures as they could to make sure life on your planet is lived in extremely limited and difficult circumstances.</p><p></p><p>Despite this, they don’t have control over the fate of any soul – it’s simply that you’ve been led to forget that your reality is in your hands and that you can change any situation to be in favor of your growth and progression. The efforts of the conscious public are very valuable to humanity’s evolution, and we encourage you to understand that you have all of the power when it comes to how your lives play out.</p><p></p><p>Your power and that of your higher selves is stronger than many of you yet realize, and you’re starting to use this power to shape your lives and your future experiences in ways that benefit you the most. You’re encouraged not to give up on your mission when it seems as if you could fail, because you’re given more assistance than you currently understand.</p><p></p><p>We’ll make our final expressions for this communication with encouragement for you to understand that nobody has dominion over your lives or experiences.</p><p></p><p>You’ve coordinated your lives in a very specific way, and even though you’re mostly creating them as you go along, you aren’t intended to veer into a direction that isn’t helpful for you or the seekers around you. Always remember this, dearest souls, and know that we’re constantly with you – in good times and bad.</p><p></p><p>Thank you to my higher self and spiritual guides.</p><p></p><p><em>I’m a 20 year old awakening seeker and creator of</em> <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/">The Aquarius Paradigm</a> <em>daily news site.</em></p><p></p><p>The Aquarius Paradigm <em>features daily spiritual and alternative news, as well as articles I’ve written and more</em>. <em>Its purpose is to awaken and uplift by providing material that’s spiritually inspired and/or related to the fall of the planetary elite and our entrance into a positive future.</em></p><p></p><p><em>I can also be found at</em> <a href="http://wesannac.com/">Conscious Oneness</a>, <a href="http://goldenageofgaia.com/author/wes-annac/">The Golden Age of Gaia</a>, <a href="http://lightworkers.org/user/36129">Lightworkers.org</a>, <a href="http://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/profile/WesA'">Ashtar Command Crew</a>, Facebook (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/wes.annac">Wes Annac</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/aquariusparadigm">The Aquarius Paradigm</a>), and <a href="https://twitter.com/WesAnnac">Twitter</a>.</p><p></p><p><a href="http://mccaule2.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/spirituality.jpg">Photo Credit</a></p></div>Planetary Healing: Restoring Humanity's Awareness From the Spirit Worldhttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/planetary-healing-restoring-humanity-s-awareness-from-the-spirit2014-03-31T15:16:03.000Z2014-03-31T15:16:03.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><em><a href="http://aquariuschannelings.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/ec707-521_spirit_guides.jpg?w=604" target="_blank"><img width="547" height="940" class="align-left" style="width:140px;height:213px;" src="http://aquariuschannelings.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/ec707-521_spirit_guides.jpg?w=604" alt="ec707-521_spirit_guides.jpg?w=604" /></a></em><em>The following was written by Wes Annac for the “planetary healing” segment of</em> The Aquarius Paradigm Weekly Newsletter.</p><p></p><p>We left off last week with some quotes from an unnamed spirit communicator through Charlotte Dresser about the work that’s done in spirit to help us become aware of the reality of our existence, and we’re going to continue our discussion with another quote from this specific entity.</p><p></p><p>This discussion is intended to move in a forward direction instead of aimlessly talking about the idea of higher-dimensional service for weeks on end, and you might find that we’ve actually been addressing different aspects of our spiritual family’s service to humanity.</p><p></p><p>In our first quote, we’re told about the difficulty in conveying everything that’s done and experienced in the higher realms.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“It is not possible to outline perfectly all of our interests and work.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“They are wide as the universe, as different as the thought of man or spirit. Wonder upon wonder, marvel upon marvel, unfold to our growing vision, and life is never for one instant lacking in interest. Nevertheless it is best to focus our attention, study, and thought on those things most interesting to each personality.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Some choose science, some philosophy, some invention, some the studies of other universes and other lives.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The amazing and constantly fulfilling vibration our family’s on motivates them to find their passion and get to work, learning about spirit and raising awareness so others can learn about it too. Even though a lot of time’s initially spent freely exploring the higher realms, eventually, one buckles down and gets to work, passionately following their greatest dreams.</p><p></p><p>We have an incredible existence waiting for us, and as long as we keep at our mission here on earth, we’ll be back in the higher realms so quickly that we’ll wonder where all the time went.</p><p></p><p>A.D. Mattson tells us that we have the freedom to choose what we want to do in the higher realms. He also tells us that everyone works together in a widespread, communal effort to raise consciousness.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“A job is not simply allocated to you here. As there is choice of occupation on earth, so there is even greater choice of occupation in what you may like to call ‘heaven.’ I find the latitude in our choices here to be quite incredible. I don’t know what field I will entre at the present time.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I will have to pray over this and inquire into various fields because once we are committed we are committed for a considerable time. Here we don’t so much work as individuals. We work more in bands and groups.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>After someone decides what work they want to do, they’re naturally attracted to souls with similar interests, and groups are formed with the intent of achieving goals that everyone in the groups are passionate about.</p><p></p><p>Nobody’s forced to do something they don’t feel comfortable with, and nobody’s ‘assigned’ to a role by another person – they choose their own role after they’ve taken plenty of time and gained plenty of experience enjoying themselves and exploring their new state of consciousness.</p><p></p><p>The spirit leader Imperator lays out as many divine passions as he can. Keep in mind that he probably hasn’t even scratched the surface in this long quote.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Occupations are varied.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The learning and knowing more and more of the sublime truths which the Great God teaches us; the worship and adoration; the praise and glorifying of Him; the teaching to benighted ones truth and progress; the missionary work of the advanced to the struggling and feeble; the cultivation of our intellectual talents; the development of our spiritual life; progress in love and knowledge; ministrations of mercy; studies in the secret workings of the universe, and the guiding and direction of cosmic forces; in short, the satisfaction of the cravings of the immortal being in its twofold aspect of intellect and affection.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>As you can see, divine intelligence pulls us in all different directions, and it’s all for the purpose of knowing ourselves in the greatest sense possible. In serving others, we serve ourselves. In studying the universe and all of its wonders, we’re studying a greater aspect of ourselves that exists in a higher state of consciousness, which we’ll eventually reenter.</p><p></p><p>We’re children of the universe, and when we start to realize this, we’re led to do and study all kinds of different things that accelerate our evolution and help us in our quest to raise awareness about spirit and everything that’s been forgotten about in the lower spheres.</p><p></p><p>Can you imagine how many different passions we’ll follow in the fifth dimension and beyond? Everyone’s experience is unique, and we’ll all be led to do different and diverse things that we wouldn’t expect ourselves to be passionate about.</p><p></p><p>Judge David P. Hatch tells us that in most cases, a passion or talent is developed throughout many lives. We’re also told that concentration is important to developing any ability.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The difference between a painter and a musician, or between a poet and a novelist, is not a difference of qualities in the entity itself; for each unit contains everything except quantity, and thus has the possibilities of development along any line chosen by its will.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The choice may have been made ages ago. It takes a long time, often many lives, to evolve an art or a faculty for one particular kind of work in preference to all others. Concentration is the secret of power, here as elsewhere.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>I’ve been learning that patience and concentration are important to developing any ability we want to master, and we have to be willing to ‘fail’ a few times before we realize that failure’s an illusion and that we’re always growing; always learning; always developing our talent.</p><p></p><p>Even when we’re in a higher state of consciousness, we’ll continue to learn, grow, and develop, and we’ll probably drop our vibration plenty of times along the way just so we can re-learn things over again.</p><p></p><p>Mary Bosworth through Charlotte Dresser tells us about the interlinked nature of joy and service in the higher realms.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Joy is so closely united with service here that the two can scarcely be separated.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“You are thinking that this would not be so [in regards to serving] the weak or the wicked. Possibly true. But through sympathy, understanding, teaching, or companionship, we learn that we help, and are joyous in that unseen help. Congeniality is the foundation of friendship here, and it leaves no room for friction or jarring notes.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Some will even travel down to the lower fourth-dimensional spheres to offer healing and redemption to the souls who’ve trapped themselves there. Our family cares so much about us that some of them willingly and routinely drop their vibration just to offer us love and insight. We couldn’t be more fortunate, in my opinion.</p><p></p><p>We’re given so much guidance and advice when we open up to it, and an endless stream of intuitive love awaits all of humanity, which our family beyond works very hard to deliver.</p><p></p><p>Mary also confirms something I’ve always felt and noticed in regards to serving others.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“We are happy, and glad to be of service to those who need us; and service is half of our life here. By this statement we do not wish to make service seem unpleasant. It never is. For the Joy of helping others is great; and too, it makes our own resting times or recreation times more happy.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>I can definitely attest to this last sentence. The more I strive to be of service, the better I feel when I sit down at the end of the day and reflect on everything I was able to do. It feels better than I can express to know I was able to be of service to others in a way that’s enjoyable and creatively stimulating.</p><p></p><p>I love developing the ‘skill’ of writing, and half the time, I feel driven to endlessly flow with work that’s intended to uplift.</p><p></p><p>When I do let myself rest, I feel an immense sense of satisfaction that usually drives me to want to do more. There will be time to <em>really</em> enjoy that satisfactory feeling eventually, and even then, I’ll probably put it down in favor of service! It’ll always be there for us, and eventually, we’ll want to feel it for a while before we get back out there.</p><p></p><p>Mary also tells us about the ‘system of exchange’ prevalent in the higher fourth-dimensional realms, likening our family’s workspace to a ‘central office’.</p><p></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“We have a system or order of work and study, though what you call hours and minutes are not so counted by us. … I am thinking of how to tell you of the orderly way in which we work. Perhaps if I call it (this by way of illustration) a central office, where the plans are arranged and messengers sent to us when we are needed, it may help you a little. …</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“We are as busy as you. We exchange many things, which might be called barter. For instance, I study something I wish to perfect myself in, and teach, perhaps, my very teacher in some other branch.” (7)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>As Mary will continue telling us below, souls teach each other things they’re each familiar with in exchange for one another’s assistance. This is a very harmonious way of doing things, and even though it’s selfless in nature, rewards are still given in the form of the knowledge or good deeds exchanged.</p><p></p><p>Mary continues: “We exchange many things, sometimes work, sometimes ideas, sometimes the many acts of love and friendliness; but all without your medium of exchange, money. We have love instead, or, if to those we do not know, whatever courtesy suggests. So you see, we have a busy trading system, and enjoy it too, and no one becomes bankrupt.” (8)</p><p></p><p>I don’t need to tell all of you that this is how our society should function, and with our endless effort and perseverance, things will change. Money isn’t inherently bad or negative, but we’ve put far too much value in it and forgotten to look at the most important driving factors of our existence and progression as a species: love and harmony.</p><p></p><p>These qualities are exchanged instead of money in the realms beyond, and everyone helps each other get a leg up. Nobody’s left behind or forced into a difficult situation, because love and abundance flow to every sovereign soul and there’s no need for a ‘rat race’.</p><p></p><p>Next week, we’ll examine the two ideas that rest isn’t required in the higher realms and that nobody’s forced to serve others. As we’ll learn, service is definitely a choice, and most souls are very passionate about it.</p><p></p><p>The goal of our family beyond is to see humanity ascend, along with every other lower-dimensional planet and civilization that’s ready to see the light. Most souls, having been guided and mentored into a higher vibration, then seek to do everything they can to spread awareness of the amazing things they’ve learned, and this drives the choice to be of service.</p><p></p><p>A lot of us on earth are believed to have incarnated out of a desire to assist humanity, and we’re being helped in this quest by an infinite amount of higher-dimensional souls and collectives who’ve assumed a similar mission.

These experiences are apparently rare, which makes them all the more interesting, and the idea that some people actually find enlightenment from the process of death casts it in an even more benevolent light.</p><p> </p><p>I can only imagine what it’s like to go from plain old earthly existence to a brimming higher-dimensional perception in a single moment, but thanks to the accounts we’re going to examine, we can get a glimpse of this interesting phenomenon.<span id="more-34721"></span></p><p> </p><p>We’ll start with the account of one ‘Father Andrew Glazewski’ who tells us that for him, death was a mostly blissful and ecstatic process.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The ecstacy of dying is something I can never express. It is suddenly like becoming light itself. It is so wonderful. It is heat and coolness. It is warmth in the mind. It is clarity of vision and understanding.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“It is like a clap of divine thunder and, hey presto! There I am, out of my old tiresome old body, leaping about in the glorious ether; and you’ve no conception of what dying is like…. It is a Communion, a Sacrament of living on a higher level – this is the most transforming experience that any mortal can attain. I am overcome with joy, pure joy.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Father Glazewski experienced the sacred higher-dimensional joy that a plethora of seekers are just starting to rediscover here on earth, and the result was a very enlightening experience of death. As we’ll learn below, his experience started off painful, but the pain quickly gave way to the ecstatic bliss he’s referencing.</p><p> </p><p>He continues: “The pain grew suddenly so bad that it seemed to burst or break something inside me – and I was suddenly free – free in the strangest sense. I felt for a moment inert and without power, as in a walking trance. I was above my body but still attached to it.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I was sorry for it, it looked so helpless, almost like a child, and Gordon tried so hard to reawaken life in me again.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Of course, ‘Gordon’ would’ve been completely unable to help Glazewski at that point, because he was already outside of his inanimate body, watching the scene play out. However painful or disconcerting his initial experience was, he was able to become conscious outside of his body and watch his friend attempt to revive him.</p><p> </p><p>As soon as he was able to understand and accept that he’d died, Father Glazewski’s incredible enlightenment experience started.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Then I saw in [Gordon’s] face that I had finished and, as you say, ‘dropped in my tracks.’ Well, fair enough. I had tried to finish the course but no matter. So I accepted death and, as I did so, the whole world changed. The room blazed with light. The books on the table, the chairs, even the carpet and the curtains, everything in the room was alive with love power.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>As soon as he was able to accept his transition, the world around him lit up with spiritual power and vibrancy. This is pretty different from some of the other accounts we’ve examined, and Father Glazewski’s experience was clearly oriented more toward the light than others’.</p><p> </p><p>Everyone who lives a basically good life is offered the chance to embrace the light when the time comes, but most people’s surroundings aren’t literally lit up with divine energy. The very idea fascinates me.</p><p> </p><p>We’re then told more about this unique experience.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I stayed quite still, quite close to my body, but I couldn’t see it any longer; perhaps they had taken it away. It did not seem to matter to me any more.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I was at this time alone with God … I had often tried to feel this at-oneness with the Divine, but never succeeded to this overwhelming extent. I felt like a piece of blotting paper that was being saturated with light. I waited in an ecstacy – every moment was beyond words.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>I can only imagine how blissful this experience must’ve been. It’s similar to Dr. Eben Alexander’s account, which I referenced earlier in this report, because Father Glazewski was able to travel into the Source and ‘merge’ with it in a sense.</p><p> </p><p>The bliss of merging with Source is indescribable with human words and practically impossible to feel from a limited human body, but outside of the body, an experienced soul has the potential to remember and merge with Source in a big way.</p><p> </p><p>We’re then told about Glazewski’s enhanced discarnate ability to feel a heightened level of Christ consciousness, as well as his eventual descent back to the third dimension in spirit form.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Had I been able to hold [the bliss] in my body, I could only have done so for a moment, but now I seemed to have gained a certain resilience. I became tireless in my power to receive. How long it lasted I have no idea. But when I touched down again, as you would say, I found all quiet and everyone in bed.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>After tirelessly receiving Source’s infinite, divine energy, Glazewski calmly descended to find his kin on earth sleeping. If it were me, I might’ve seriously considered trying to re-reach the blissful state of consciousness I was just in.</p><p> </p><p>The contrast between a blissed-out state of consciousness and the familiar, lower realms of the earth must be immense. I might hunger too much for the uninhibited experience to want to toil in the finite density of the earth and the immediate realms beyond!</p><p> </p><p>In his final quote, Father Glazewski describes his incarnate loved ones’ thankfulness for his peaceful transition, as well as his heightened ability to bless them.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Some were praying for me or thanking [God] for my release. They made me feel very humble as I passed from room to room blessing them all in turn, not as I used to, but with a power quite outside my knowledge and experience.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Especially after his amazing ordeal, Glazewski was easily able to bless his thankful family with the light of Source, which he’d just started remembering in a purer way.</p><p> </p><p>Anyone who experiences a degree of enlightenment after death is probably able to return to a lower state of consciousness with heightened abilities, and they can use such abilities to hone their crafts and help their loved ones on earth in the process.</p><p> </p><p>Now, we’re going to examine the experience of a woman named Barbara, who strongly feared death all her life before dying of a long illness. We’ve examined material from Barbara in previous <i>Spirit World Chronicles</i> installments, and here, we’re going to learn about her initially dark but eventually blissful death/enlightenment experience.</p><p> </p><p>She starts by telling us about the unhappiness with which she first entered the spirit world.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I came over unhappily, not as the old who die easily and fall like ripe seeds matured and ready for the soil of spirit life. I came through the dark valley – but, oh, nothing in all my lives can touch the beauty of awakening…. In misery I lost myself in unconsciousness, but I awoke to a glory beyond the morning sun….” (7)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Even though she was miserable at first, Barbara was eventually able to open up to the ecstasy that dying and remembering spirit can offer. She was able to embrace an experience of enlightenment after spending time in a lower space, proving that anyone who gets lost in fear or dread can re-reach the light.</p><p> </p><p>She then tells us about the indescribable ecstasy she was able to feel when she started to merge with Source.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I had forgotten ecstacy, but it was waiting for me with a fullness of perception that breaks through every fancy and escapes my pen – the feeling of absorption into the very Godhead itself is the only way I can describe it.” (8)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We can only theorize about what merging with Source feels like from the earth, but some people are able to experience such a merging in all of its intensely after they pass on. Like a lot of other things, our karma and the choices we make in life are the biggest determiners of what we experience after death.</p><p> </p><p>Barbara, Father Glazewski, and a few others were able to merge with Source because of their deeds in life, and we can all experience this fate if our actions here on earth are oriented to spirit and service.</p><p> </p><p>Merging with Source entails giving up our perception of our individuality, but we don’t feel this loss when we’re immersed in the fullness of unified Christ consciousness. This was Barbara’s experience, as we’re told below.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“This is what happens to [us] who suffer: Christ, in the fullness of his divine sympathy, embraces and endows us with a power to merge and literally to cease our individual consciousness so lovely, so profound, that I knew no loss of self, but I became just one more sentient part of the Christ consciousness, knowing and feeling only the greatness of love, and within that overwhelming ecstacy I hung poised between life and life, until the broken particles of the suffering me had [grown] together in this love solution.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“As the time grew near for me to become again just Barbara, I found myself not less but more, far more than I had ever imagined possible.” (9)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Temporarily merging with Source enabled Barbara to pick up the scattered pieces of her unhappy and incomplete self, and the harmony accompanying the experience made it easier for her to diminish the pain and fear that’d always held her back. Barbara’s experience was very liberating, and apparently, other lost souls can be given similar experiences.</p><p> </p><p>In a beautiful quote, which happens to be our final quote for this report, Barbara tells us that she’s finally free.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I should like one old friend to hear from me. … Tell her – oh, tell her – that I’m free – thought carries me on an ever beyonding reach.” (10)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The higher thought of the fourth and fifth dimensions will liberate and inspire us as we continue our journey back to a permanent state of Christ consciousness. Some people, like Barbara, will temporarily merge back with Source if their journeys are particularly difficult, and afterward, they’ll be able to emerge into the higher etheric realms with love and assurance.</p><p> </p><p>As always, I’m happy to have presented and examined this material and I remain grateful to the discarnate sources who’ve worked so hard to bring it to us. We’ve still only begun to really dive into the subject of the afterlife, and next time, we’ll examine the occasionally sudden or violent nature of some people’s deaths.</p><p> </p><p>When we do, I think we should keep in mind that death itself liberates us from mortal pain and fear. The intention of this ongoing project is to present death in a more favorable but still truthful light, and I look forward to continuing to wipe the grime away from our perception of it in future reports.</p><p> </p><p>Wes Annac – Playing my part in raising awareness – about death and everything else humanity’s been stumped about.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Cynthia Sandys and Rosamund Lehmann, The Awakening Letters.

Most entities are drawn to the light without anyone saying ‘go to the light.’ They somehow know this.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“It’s a past soul memory of having left the body many times that will project him into the God light.” (1)<span id="more-34689"></span></p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We’ll naturally know to follow the light when we move on from the body. Whether we experience an instant transition into spirit, a brief sleep followed by an awakening, or a tunnel with a light at the end, instinct will show us where we’re meant to go.</p><p> </p><p>The spirit teacher continues, telling us about the celebration that takes place with departed loved ones on the other side.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“At that time, this is where the loved ones are, in the light, there to meet him.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There is a celebration, welcoming him home, giving him the love and the pat on the back, so to speak, of a job well done, to encourage him to let go of the past and not feel the pain of what he has left behind. He’s gently trained and brought into the higher concepts and understanding as he is interested.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Even the most unaware person probably hungers to know more when they pass on to a place where they’re infinitely guided by departed loved ones, and after doing something as incredible as traveling through an etheric tunnel to reach the fourth dimension, I’d imagine awareness is automatically heightened.</p><p> </p><p>Can you imagine how immense the hunger to learn more must be in the afterlife?</p><p> </p><p>We’re then told more about the light at the end of the tunnel.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Look for the brightest light around you and walk towards that.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The light is the higher astral levels which [one] has earned.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>If we’ve reached a certain state of consciousness, we’re given the choice to enter the white light of the higher astral realms after traveling through the etheric tunnel that leads to it. These wonderful realms are apparently our reward for living basically good lives, but people who live for greed and vanity might not initially experience the bliss they have to offer.</p><p> </p><p>In a Q&A, we’re told that understanding the process of traveling through the darkness and into the light will make it much easier.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Q: Is there any fear either in this gray state or going through this tunnel?</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“A: Many times there is. But if a person understands that he is to go through this, there would be no fear. He will see pathetic-looking souls in the darkness if he chooses to stop. But souls normally will just project right into the light without looking to either side.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Even the fear associated with traveling through the tunnel is more of a fear of the unknown, and it only exists because of our unevolved nature. Understanding the process will ready us to experience it when the time comes, and our potential to descend into fear during it is the only thing that makes it ‘frightening’.</p><p> </p><p>The spirit teacher continues answering the question above.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There is really nothing to fear. There’s no way one can be harmed. He will only be loved as he crosses over.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The soul’s negative state will determine how free from fear he is. You have only to look at the people on your earth plane. These people are in the light and yet they have fears. Just because one leaves the body in death does not mean he’s going to lose those fears. The fears are within man.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>If we have fear within at the time of death, we might have to confront it in a bolder way because it’ll be intensified by the unknown territory around us. Our choices in life will determine where we go after death, and even people who are basically good will have to confront their deeply held fears of not existing, especially if they choose to spend some time in ‘no man’s land’.</p><p> </p><p>The more we confront our fears now, the easier death will be if it comes knocking on our door before we evolve. The ascension process is much easier when we uproot and work through our inner held fear, and doing so is obviously an essential part of our growth.</p><p> </p><p>We can’t take our fear with us to the higher etheric realms, and as long as we harbor it, we’ll remain on its vibration.</p><p> </p><p>We’re told below that as long as we work through all of our fear here on earth, we won’t be afraid during the transition of death.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“As man grows to the point where he no longer needs those fears, he is released from them. It is each soul’s job to police himself for if you have [fears] in the body, you’re going to have them out of the body. If there is no fear in the body, there will be no fear out of the body.” (7)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>This is why it’s important to start doing our inner work now, in my opinion. The earth offers an immense opportunity for physical and spiritual growth, and if we strive to, we can work through every bit of inner held fear that’d keep us back from an enjoyable afterlife experience.</p><p> </p><p>We’ll be much lighter when we work through and dissolve all of our fear, and it’ll make all of the wonderful things we have yet to experience much easier and more enjoyable.</p><p> </p><p>Concluded in Part 4 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Betty Bethards, medium, There is No Death.

Their etheric bodies are gradually and subtly accustomed to the realms they’ll enter, and when the time comes, they’re able to slip away gracefully.<span id="more-34655"></span></p><p> </p><p>Then, they’re able to wake up to the brimming other side and start their lives anew in spirit.</p><p> </p><p>Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson tells us that peaceful transitions are far more natural than violent ones.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“[Sudden or violent transitions] are not what could be considered in any way normal had other conditions prevailed.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">Normal transition, from the point of view of the spirit world, is that wherein the spirit body becomes gradually and easily detached from the earthly body in a slow and steady process of separation. The magnetic cord, in such cases, will become detached from the earthly body gently, it will fall away naturally, just as the leaf falls from the tree in autumn.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Death is intended to entail a gradual release of the etheric body, but the circumstances surrounding it could cause pain and difficulty before the transition itself takes place.</p><p> </p><p>In all cases, death delivers one from pain and chaos and into the wondrous realms of spirit. For this reason and this reason alone, I can confidently say that we have no reason to fear, apprehend, or avoid death. As long as we take care of our bodies and do our best to keep our karma straight, it’ll be as easy as going to sleep and waking up.</p><p> </p><p>Benson continues, affirming that the spirit gradually readies to leave the body in old age.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“When the leaf is in full life and vigour it requires a strong action to dislodge it from the tree. And so it is with the spirit body. In the young, the cohesion is firm, but it gradually lessens as age increases. When people on earth reach the autumn of their lives, like the leaf of the tree, the spirit body is less firmly attached to the physical body.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We’re firmly rooted in the body when we’re young, but as time goes on, our essence prepares to shed its physical shell. After everything we experience on the third-dimensional earth, we’re able to depart to the fourth dimension and take stock of our experiences before either incarnating again or continuing our growth in that sphere.</p><p> </p><p>As we’ll learn below, the only shock Julia Ames felt when she died was the shock of waking up in a new realm.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“When you die a change takes place that differs so much in different cases that I think I had better begin by describing as clearly as possible what is felt by the person who dies.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">In my letters I have told you how I felt. There was no pain, no shock, no sensation at all save that of waking up out of a deep sleep, perfectly well. That was my experience and it was a very happy one. It is a very common one, but it is not universal.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>From what we’ve learned so far, it seems like this transition is only negative if the circumstances surrounding it are negative. Most people are able to experience a peaceful death before waking up in the spirit realms, and the common experience is one of simplicity and an understanding that death isn’t the end of life.</p><p> </p><p>I have a feeling that some people don’t even feel the pain of a violent death. For some people, the change might be so instant that they don’t have time to feel any pain, and they’re simply left to wander around in their etheric forms and wonder what happened.</p><p> </p><p>Nigel Gibbs starts telling us about the experience of one ‘Ian Maclean’ in dying, traveling through a tunnel, and reaching a state of spiritual blankness referred to as ‘no man’s land’ (which, incidentally, is the name of a bar down the street from me).</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“[In] regards [to] his death, as far as I could gather, it was very rapid.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">He said everything went inky and black and he seemed to be travelling a long time down a tunnel and when at last his feet touched the bottom and he thought ‘I’ve parachuted safely in to solid earth,’ he found himself floating in space. That was a pretty unpleasant experience. It was lonely and it was dark.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Nigel continues, telling us that Mr. Maclean eventually and instinctually called for help, which he was happily given.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“After a while a queer unearthly terror got hold of him and he called and called to his pals for help.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">That was the sensible thing to do because one of our chaps called Irvin or Irwin found him and helped him out of no-man’s-land. He has got on famously since then. He has no recollection of agonizing pain – only for one awful searing moment, a blaze of light and then the tunnel.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>As evidenced by Dr. Eben Alexander’s account in his book ‘Proof of Heaven’, some people will experience this strange and unsettling darkness before eventually reaching the more lighted realms. In the book, Dr. Alexander recounts his numerous experiences traveling back and forth from the dark realm to the increasingly pure realms of Source.</p><p> </p><p>While some will simply wake up in a good place, others might experience a temporary void before they’re driven to seek something higher – something they’ll attain upon seeking. Maybe one’s karma determines whether or not they experience this ‘no man’s land’ but no matter what, we can transcend it.</p><p> </p><p>Continued in Part 3 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Philip Gilbert through Alice Gilbert, medium, Philip in Two Worlds.

Some of the material examined in this series dates back to nearly a century ago, and the referenced sources discuss a wide range of topics that have to do with life after death and the conditions of the realms beyond.</i></p><p></p><p>Previously, we discussed the uniqueness of each transition and the pain-lifting effects death has on the departing, immortal spirit.</p><p> </p><p>We learned that any potential pain surrounding death is lifted instantly when we reach the bliss of the fourth dimension, and we’re going to resume our discussion with a few personal accounts of the deaths of people who’ve returned through mediums to tell us about their transition and the realms beyond.</p><p> </p><p>We’ve learned a lot from these accounts so far, but we haven’t scratched the surface of what’s available. It’ll probably take five or six more detailed reports to get a glimpse of the vast material out there, and along the way, we’ll learn interesting insights that’ll refresh our perspective on the fourth dimension.<span id="more-34613"></span></p><p> </p><p>We’ll dive into this material with a quote from Grace Rosher’s departed sister about what death is really like.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“It’s not true that people die. They just go to sleep and wake up to a much more vigorous life.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Can you imagine how amazing the realm we wake up to is? It must be wonderfully refreshing to fall asleep on earth and wake up in a beautiful, heavenly place filled with departed friends and relatives. Beyond the fact that any fear of death would be quelled, the atmosphere would be rich, uplifting and harmonious.</p><p> </p><p>Sigwart shares his experience of death and informs us that a period of slumber can precede our awakening in spirit.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Everything intruded upon me and I was conscious at once of what had happened to me, that is, that I had stepped through the portals of death, as you so rightly call it. … The shedding of matter proceeds in a condition of sleep; consciousness returns gradually and then the enjoyment of freedom begins, if one has not been a novice in these things” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>It might take some people a little bit of time and adjustment to understand what happened, but the experienced and rested spirit is able to come out of their slumber comfortably. Even though it could be difficult for some to come to terms with their death, everyone’s eventually able to accept it and progress from there.</p><p> </p><p>According to Mike Swain, some people will dream that they’re in the location their body is in during their etheric slumber.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Nature wraps you in a blanket of sleep [and] a person, even if he is terrified of dying, merely falls asleep. In his sleep, he dreams that he is still in the same room; but actually he is passing to our Golden World.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Apparently, the sleep that follows death can cause dreams that are based on our most recent location and memory. We’re eventually able to wake up in the wonderful world of spirit, but the initial resting period could be a bit confusing, especially for someone who experienced a traumatic death.</p><p> </p><p>Luckily, everyone who passes on is given immense assistance with understanding their transition and the realms beyond, and a lot of souls then choose to help other initiates understand spirit.</p><p> </p><p>Gordon Burdick tells us that when he woke up from his etheric slumber, he wasn’t interested in what happened to his mortal body.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“When I passed, I don’t remember anything except … that I was asleep and woke up in this other state of life. I was not interested in what happened to my body or what my friends were doing about it.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Some people’s concerns about their body probably fade in the face of the amazing etheric realms they’re able to traverse. With so much to explore; so much to learn, it makes sense that some wouldn’t be concerned about their body. In a sense, the body’s old news.</p><p> </p><p>The fourth dimension offers unprecedented opportunities for exploration and service, and some initiates are probably happy to move beyond the limitation of third-dimensionality in favor of etheric liberation.</p><p> </p><p>Mike Swain lays out the process of death as he experienced it.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The actual act of dying is as simple as dozing off after lunch. A drowsy feeling fills the whole of your body with relaxing comfort.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">You can still see, with your earthly eyes the room about you. Then you notice that there are all kinds of new people standing around your bed, people that you once knew, such as parents, a favorite uncle, a friend who passed over many years sooner. The joy of seeing them again takes your mind off everything else.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>A lot of people instantly stop worrying about their physical fate when they see the smiling faces of people they’ve thought were ‘dead’. The joy of being in the company of family diminishes any mortal worries or concerns, and they’re able to start enjoying themselves and their new lives.</p><p> </p><p>Mike continues: “They take you by the hand and lift you to your feet. This invariably causes you to look back at the bed and to your surprise you or your mortal shell is still lying there. You say aloud: ‘But how can I be here with you people and yet still be lying there on the bed?’ Only then do you realize that this is death.” (6)</p><p> </p><p>The sight of departed family and the inanimate physical shell at the same time is a huge factor in the realization that death has taken place. Initiates are able to understand their transition because of the support and assistance they’re given, and nobody comes out of the experience unable to grasp what happened, unless they keep themselves from understanding.</p><p> </p><p>In some cases, people are too bewildered to understand the change that’s taken place, but in others, they’re easily able to cope with their transition and see what the other side has to offer. Some people are probably very excited to explore the spirit realms, while for others, coming to terms with the whole thing is difficult.</p><p> </p><p>Continued in Part 2 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Grace Rosher, medium.

Year after year I was afraid of it when I needn’t have been in the least afraid. I had much illness and suffered a great deal from worries, fears, anxieties and bodily pain in my life. But at the moment of death there was no pain.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Despite the pain she experienced during her physical life, Hilda was freed of every bit of pain when she greeted a process she’d feared so much.<span id="more-34516"></span></p><p> </p><p>Especially for people inflicted with illness, it can probably be easy to fear death and non-existence in general, but luckily, death sees a continuance and enhancement of consciousness that’s probably welcomed by a lot of people who were in pain.</p><p> </p><p>Hilda then tells us that she was able to notice departed family around her before she died.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“When I knew I was dying, I was just able to say: ‘Take care of little Tough.’ He was my darling baby grandson. But I wasn’t unhappy or frightened or lonely; for I saw my fathers, my sisters, my brother whom I had thought of as dead – and by dead, I mean asleep till Judgment Day.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">But they weren’t asleep, they were quite close to me. I could see them through a pale mist.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>She was able to be in the comforting company of her family, the very presence of whom displayed to her that death isn’t the end of life. If you’re on the brink of death and you start perceiving long-passed friends or family members, I think it’ll become clear that you aren’t about to blink out of existence.</p><p> </p><p>A lot of departing souls are able to be comforted by the apparitions of their friends and family, and even though some might refuse to believe that death isn’t the end, others will be able to accept the process with relative ease.</p><p> </p><p>As Hilda tells us below, the last few moments before death certainly aren’t lonely.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“So if anyone talks to you about the loneliness of death, tell them it is all nonsense. I was never less alone than in those few minutes – I suppose they were minutes. I wasn’t in a state to take the time when I was dying. I was quite helpless. I couldn’t move hand or foot, but I wasn’t in the least afraid.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Can you imagine being in such a condition and having no fear over your fate or where you’re going? The presence of departed friends and family probably helps eradicate any fear surrounding the transition, and as long as we let ourselves, we can experience the process relatively calmly.</p><p> </p><p>Hilda then delivers her ‘message to the world’, telling us that her death was one of the best and most freeing moments of her life.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“So my message to the world is that, for me, one of the happiest moments of my earth-life was the moment of death.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">Of course it was much longer than a moment, but the wonderful freedom from pain, the feeling of peace and security when I saw my loved dead alive, smiling, waiting for me, drive away loneliness, fear, and, for a while, all the grief of separation from my two boys.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Pain and fear wash away when we greet the liberated etheric realms, and our minds and hearts are expanded as we welcome the new life that opens up before us. When we rediscover that consciousness is eternal, our opportunity to explore the realms beyond will be infinite and we’ll merrily forget about the pain of earthly physicality.</p><p> </p><p>Everything that overwhelmed us on the earth will be nearly forgotten about when we start exploring spirit, and we’ll enjoy ourselves far more than we did when we toiled and squabbled our physical lives away.</p><p> </p><p>In an inspiring, final quote, Hilda advises that our definition of death should be changed to match its benevolence and the release from physical pain it offers.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Other people may die differently – I don’t know. I can only tell you that the word ‘death,’ judging from my experience, should have its definition altered in the dictionary to ‘the first human experience of a peace that passes understanding.’” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We can research and write about the blissful peace of death all we want, but we’ll never understand it until we experience it. Until we feel this bliss ourselves, we’ll never really be able to examine or discuss it and our earthly interpretations of it will forever fall short.</p><p> </p><p>This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t work to understand this peace or the realms that provide it, but no matter how hard we try, we’ll only gain a premature and distorted glimpse of it here on earth.</p><p> </p><p>Death is a process that each initiate experiences in a unique way, and I’m happy to have presented this material about its uniqueness and the liberation of mortal pain it grants us. In future installments, we’ll continue to examine the uniqueness of death and the things people experience when they initially pass on.</p><p> </p><p>There’s much more to the topic of death and the realms beyond than even most seekers realize, and the material we have yet to examine will illuminate this interesting facet of life with incredible insights about it. Because of these insights, we’re able to understand something that few people on this planet lend their attention to in a positive way.</p><p> </p><p>Wes Annac – Happy to serve as a conduit for the expression of death’s benevolence.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Geraldine Cummins, They Survive.

It is so brief, so transitory as scarcely to be noted for it is what lies beyond the door that counts. The body, let us say, is tired and weakened.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">At a certain point the heart stops, not merely because the body mechanism will not function, but also because the soul has slipped off through the opening door. Some go gladly, some reluctantly, but all in answer to the universal urge for peace and tranquility.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>It’s probably easy to leave a place like the earth for the wonderful states of consciousness that exist beyond, and I’m sure the peaceful and tranquil pull that gently draws the recently deceased out of their bodies is embraced by a lot of seekers who understand what death is really like.</p><p> </p><p>Even a moment of infinite etheric peace would be wonderful, and I can only imagine what it’s like to leave the heaviness of the body behind and bask in the gentle lightness of the liberated etheric body. This body, being a gentle yet infallible form of energy, is weightless and obviously much freer to move about than the physical body.</p><p> </p><p>Joy Snell tells us about the first physical death she witnessed from the spirit realms.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“It was the first death that I had witnessed. Immediately after her heart had ceased to beat, I distinctly saw something in appearance like smoke, or steam as it rises from a kettle in which the water is boiling, ascend from her body. This emanation rose only a little distance and there resolved itself into a form like that of my friend who had just died.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Initially, death seems to be a graceful release of the energy; the essence of the person who inhabited the body. The etheric body resumes its shape quickly after being released from the physical, and perhaps this is when the departed become conscious in the spirit realms.</p><p> </p><p>Joy continues, telling us that her friend’s etheric form gradually changed to include a white robe.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“This form, shadowy at first, gradually changed until it became well defined and clad in a pearly-white, cloud-like robe, beneath which the outlines of the figure were distinctly visible. The face was that of my friend but glorified, with no trace upon it of the spasm of pain which had seized her just before she died.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Her friend must’ve felt the immense bliss that comes with being released from the physical body and into the ecstatic spirit realms, and even if we experience the worst pain as we pass on, it all disappears once we’re out of the body.</p><p> </p><p>Just like Sigwart, Joy Snell’s friend was able to depart into bliss after experiencing intense agony. Pain is completely lifted at the time of death, because we’re freed from the temple that enables us to exist in a state of consciousness that’s dense enough to accommodate it.</p><p> </p><p>In Joy’s experience, every transition, however physically painful, entails the etheric body peacefully rising out of the physical.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Whether the deaths I witnessed were peaceful or painful, preceded or not preceded by the recognition of someone from the other world, always, immediately after the physical life had ceased, I saw the spirit form take shape above the dead body, in appearance a glorified replica of it.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Our vibration rises when we leave the physical body, and because of this, we’re able to take on a beautiful etheric form. For those of us who are aware, it might be pretty easy to discern what’s happened if we suddenly find ourselves surrounded by departed family and wearing a white robe.</p><p> </p><p>The release of death enables one to express themselves in a much more beautiful form, and our true essence, having been set free, is able to take whatever shape best suits it.</p><p> </p><p>As Joy tells us, there’s an immense contrast between the physical body that dies painfully and the etheric body that’s liberated from the pain.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“However painful might have been the last hours, however protracted and wasting the illness, no trace of suffering or disease appeared upon the radiant spirit face. Striking, at times, was the contrast which it presented to the human features, pain-distorted and deep-furrowed by suffering.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Freedom from the physical body enables the disappearance of all pain, stress, and fear, and one’s able to enjoy a blissful state of consciousness that most people can’t touch here on earth. Most of us haven’t been able to reach such a level of bliss because we’ve been unaware of the realms beyond and our ability to access them.</p><p> </p><p>According to Mary Bosworth, death doesn’t need to be the fearful atrocity we’ve made it into, especially for those who live basically good lives.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There is no darkness for us as we watch our loved ones coming across the little dividing line. We think that the close of life should be lifted out of its sorrow and fear and regarded only as a peaceful sleep, with a blessed and bright awakening. This of course refers to those who have cultivated their spirit life when on earth.” (7)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We create our fate, and the choices we make in this life determine what we’ll experience when we move on. As we’ll learn below, some people experience a decidedly worse state of consciousness after death because of their actions in life.</p><p> </p><p>Mary continues: “Death may indeed be a darkened path for those who have no fitness for this life – and yet it is not the death, but the awakening which is so dreary and oftentimes terrible for those whose lives have not been just or merciful or spiritual.” (8)</p><p> </p><p>Awakening to spirit could be pretty difficult for someone who’s been lost in the darkness of the earth all their lives, and by the natural law of karma, we’re intended to fully understand the significance of the things we’ve done in our lives once we pass on.</p><p> </p><p>Infinite etheric records are believed to exist that hold everything that’s ever been done, and these records will remind us of our earthly choices in the realms beyond. There’s an incredible significance to everything we do, and we’ll understand this when we’re finished with the lower vibrations.</p><p> </p><p>Concluded in Part 4 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Joseph Wetzl, trans., The Bridge Over the River.

This can also be said for our experience of life in general – no two people will ever experience life on earth the same way.</p><p> </p><p>Even though we’re facets of Source who are intended to rediscover our interconnected nature and the importance of coming together, we’re also unique souls who each have a special story to tell. The average person is far more valuable than they realize, if for no other reason, than for their uniqueness.</p><p> </p><p>Benson affirms what I said above, telling us that the variations between transitions are huge and that the help given in the spirit realms is strictly coordinated for each departed soul.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There may appear to be a great similarity between one normal transition and another when viewed by earthly eyes, but from our point of view the variations are enormous. They are as great, in fact, as the variations in human personalities. What to the earthly beholder is the end of life is to us and the person chiefly concerned the beginning of a new one.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Spiritual life really begins with the death of the physical body, depending on each person and where they choose to go after death, and when the time comes, our friends in spirit will accommodate our unique personalities and help show us the way to our new lives.</p><p> </p><p>Benson continues: “It is with the personality that we have to deal, and, according to the personality, to the knowledge or ignorance of spiritual matters of the passing soul, so is our especial task governed and our course of action regulated. In short, every ‘death’ is treated and served with strict regard to its essential requirements.” (3)</p><p> </p><p>No stone is left unturned when it comes to helping a departed soul realize they’ve passed on, and even the sternest souls are eventually able to come to terms with their passing. As difficult as it could be to confront such a startling and probably confusing truth, initiates are given endless assistance with doing just that.</p><p> </p><p>It’s probably easy to spiral into a denial-driven, depressed confusion when death initially takes place if it was feared all throughout life, but we have loving friends and family to lend a helping hand when our time comes to reach the other side again.</p><p> </p><p>Gordon Burdick tells us that if more of us understood death’s benevolence, we wouldn’t fear or avoid it as much as we do.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“I feel sure if people were to know that the actual moment of passing is not even noticeable, the fear of death that haunts so many people would vanish.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>If we could only understand that we have nothing to worry about, the heavy fear of what lies beyond would be replaced with the simple desire to enjoy ourselves while we’re here.</p><p> </p><p>We don’t need to seek immortality, because we’re immortal by nature. Source created us, the individual extensions of its omnipotent consciousness, to experience endless life in lower spheres of existence until we were ready to merge back with it in a series of continual, blissful ascensions from dimension to dimension.</p><p> </p><p>Our immorality goes beyond the limited life span of our physical bodies, and our consciousness will continue to live on and evolve until we’ve merged back with our infinite and all-loving creator.</p><p> </p><p>F.W.H. Meyers tells us that death is usually met with care and tenderness instead of pain.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Death is … a mere episode which we regard with a certain tenderness and not with any pain. … There is contained in it a time of stillness, of sinking gloriously into rest.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Rest is a big factor of a lot of people’s transitions, especially people who worked hard all their lives, and it probably feels good to relax for a while after a hectic physical existence. Resting after the body dies will enable us to emerge out into the etheric world with curiosity, which’ll blossom into enthusiasm to understand what it has for us.</p><p> </p><p>The actual process of reaching the etheric is generally mild and initiated with care, because our friends beyond the veil won’t gain anything by startling or dazzling us when we initially pass on. Their minds are probably more on what they can do to comfort the recently deceased.</p><p> </p><p>As John Scott tells us, when the body’s at the brink of death, the spirit gets its first glimpses of eternal life.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“They do not suffer, these people, in their passing. I think sometimes their friends suffer more, when they see the body writhing in apparent agony, while in reality the spirit is already tasting the first freedom from pain, or lies in a blessed insensibility.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>As the body nears the end of life, the etheric body starts to regain strength and prepares to return home, and it must be a joy and a shock to realize that death isn’t the end.</p><p> </p><p>At a certain point, we’ll cease to feel the pain the physical body feels as it readies itself to shut down and release the spirit to return to its original form. We’ll start to feel the blissful perception spirit has to offer, and for people who’ve expected death to be the end of life, it’s probably confusing but welcomed nonetheless.</p><p> </p><p>If I didn’t know anything about death and suddenly passed on, I’d be pretty relieved to find that consciousness doesn’t end.</p><p> </p><p>Continued in Part 3 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson through Anthony Borgia, medium, Here and Hereafter.

Some of the material examined in this series dates back to nearly a century ago, and the referenced sources discuss a wide range of topics that have to do with life after death and the conditions of the realms beyond.</i></p><p></p><p>Previously, we examined the relevance of the silver cord’s severance to the death of the body, and now, we’re going to continue our discussion with material about the benevolent nature of death and the uniqueness of each person’s transition.</p><p> </p><p>The departed souls who speak here are more alive than ever and loaded with information about the uniqueness of each transition and the extent to which death liberates us from mortal pain, and we’re going to jump into their material with a quote from Julia Ames about the usual manner in which the transition takes place.<span id="more-34417"></span></p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There are many ways of passing from your side to ours. Of these the most general is painless waking up and the first sensation is one of rest, of relief, and of peace.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Any pain that was experienced before death is gracefully lifted, and even though we’ve associated death with pain, it’s actually a great relief for most people.</p><p> </p><p>I’m sure a lot of people who were in pain appreciate when they cross over and their pain leaves them, and with a new lease on life, they’re able to soar, freely and painlessly, and do all of the things they weren’t able to do in physical life. Their existence takes on a whole new flavor, and it starts with the death of their plagued physical body.</p><p> </p><p>We’re then told the transition of leaving a body that’s in pain can unfortunately be painful for those who don’t instantly cross over.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Unfortunately the moment of transition sometimes seems to be very full of pain and dread. With some [the time of quitting the body] lasts a comparatively long time. … With some it is momentary. The envelope opens, the letter is released, and it is over. But sometimes the deathbirth is like childbirth and the soul labours long to be free.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Leaving the body can sometimes be a long and arduous process, and I’m sure the people who resist death take the longest amount of time to be freed. Again, understanding the situation will make the entire process much easier and more graceful.</p><p> </p><p>Ames continues: “I do not know why some should pass so much more easily than others. That it is a fact is true. But, after all, the parting of soul and body is but an affair of moments. There is no reason to regard it with so much alarm.” (3)</p><p> </p><p>Even if it takes a while for some people to be released from the body, we have no reason to fear death or regard it as anything that can’t be enthusiastically embraced when the time comes. Instead of fearing it, we can learn about the realms beyond in preparation for our eventual entrance into them.</p><p> </p><p>As we’re told below, the ‘preliminaries’ of death are the only potentially painful aspects, and the aware seeker can greet the transition easily.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The tranquil soul that prepares and knows need not feel even a tremor of alarm. The preliminaries of decease are often painful; the actual severance, although sometimes accompanied by a sense of wrench, is of small account.” (4)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The ‘sense of wrench’ being referred to could very well be the silver cord’s detachment from the physical body, and that aspect of the process can be met gracefully by people who understand that they aren’t actually ‘dying’ but moving into a newer and much freer life.</p><p> </p><p>Most people either fear or avoid death, but understanding that it liberates us from physicality and introduces us to a higher state of consciousness will drastically decrease any pain or difficulty we might’ve otherwise experienced.</p><p> </p><p>Mike Swain tells us that the most ideal way to pass on is to do it with assurance of where we’re going and why we’re going there.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“There are three ways of moving into our world from yours. The first is to come as I did, with the violence of an abrupt end. The second is to come as a result of the body breaking down; for example, from illness or old age. The third way, the logical way, is to come to us with full and conscious understanding of why it is happening.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Understanding the circumstances surrounding one’s death makes the overall process much easier, whereas transitioning violently or abruptly with little spiritual knowledge could make it difficult.</p><p> </p><p>Like I’ve said before, the seekers who understand that consciousness is eternal can make it much easier for our guides and family members if we cross over before we evolve, because we’ll decrease the amount of work they have to do to make us aware.</p><p> </p><p>Continued in Part 2 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1) Julia [Julia T.

Are you able to feel and benefit from a constant energetic flow, or do you find it difficult to feel any kind of greater energy? Humanity is starting to open up to spirit, but most of us still have some work to do before we can really feel and benefit from the energy we’re being given.</p><p> </p><p>Spirit is constantly with us, and it’s simply the extent to which we keep ourselves from it that determines our difficulty in feeling it.</p><p> </p><p>We might not always feel the divine like we want to, and for those of us who make it a point to be conduits for spirit, this can cause frustration. The question of what we can do when we don’t feel the flow will arise, and personally, I’ve confronted this question plenty of times.<span id="more-34274"></span></p><p> </p><p>I make it a point to write as much as possible, but sometimes, I just don’t feel the greater connection that enables me to write. It can be difficult to feel spirit’s presence when we face so much pain and difficulty, but I think it’s important to remember that misconnections are only temporary.</p><p> </p><p>We can never permanently forget the divine, because it’s an infallible part of us – a part that we couldn’t possibly separate from. In truth, we don’t have to worry about somehow detaching from spirit at this stage of the game, and even when we don’t feel a greater connection, we can be assured that the divine is with us.</p><p> </p><p>Our mission is to raise consciousness, and we have to take care of ourselves if we want to feel the connection that enables us to do so. We have to make sure our temples are pure and healthy so we can act as potent spiritual conduits, and we have to be willing to move beyond the ego and into a place of higher discipline.</p><p> </p><p>Taking care of ourselves is an important discipline, and I’m learning that we have to feel good inside to thrive – physically, spiritually, and creatively. If you want to do anything significantly positive, you have to make sure you’re living the life you want to live.</p><p> </p><p>Happiness is essential to thriving, and if we aren’t in a good place, we won’t be able to contribute much to humanity’s evolution. We’ll find that treating the body right helps us feel much better, which in turn increases the flow of energy we receive and the potency of the effects we make on the earth and the people around us.</p><p> </p><p>Above all, I think we need to remember that we have nothing to worry or stress about, even if we don’t always feel spirit. We’re accelerating humanity’s evolution by awakening others and holding a higher vibration, whether we realize it or not, and we’re encouraged to understand our immense value to the awakening taking place. If we don’t, who will?</p><p> </p><p>If we don’t give ourselves credit for the things we’ve done so far, we won’t be able to move forward with works that awaken and inspire others. I think we’re intended to understand the importance of our presence as light bearers and ascension assistors, because doing so increases the enthusiasm with which we serve the planet.</p><p> </p><p>I can’t express enough that we’re meant to see ourselves and the world around us in a positive light, and refraining from negativity when we don’t feel the love will help us soar when we do.</p><p> </p><p>We have too much to do here to buckle when things don’t go our way, and we no longer have to surrender our attempts to feel spirit if we don’t feel it automatically. Sometimes, we might not feel it at all, but this doesn’t mean we shouldn’t keep trying.</p><p> </p><p>In truth, there’s no challenge too great for us to take on, and this includes reconnecting with spirit when it’d be easier not to.</p><p> </p><p>Spirit provides us with an endless flow of energy that we can feel and remember if we make an effort to move beyond pain, fear, and doubt, and only when we transcend those qualities will we see beyond the ego and into the fullness of the open heart space.</p><p> </p><p>Our work on this planet entails continuously shifting into the heart from the confines of the mind, and no matter how hard it fights, the lower energy that thrives from our unawareness will never stop us from embracing love in all of its purity and awesomeness.</p><p> </p><p>No matter what, all of humanity will eventually move into the fullness of the heart space, and our individual efforts to do so will accelerate the collective awakening.</p><p> </p><p>Any initial difficulty in moving out of the mind will eventually be transcended, and as long as we make an effort, we’ll always tap into spirit and reap the benefits it has to offer. Are you ready to surrender the ego and move unflinchingly into the heart space, recognizing that any difficulty in doing so is only temporary?</p><p> </p><p>Personally, I aim to expand my perception of the energy we’re being given. We’re ultimately vessels for a higher expression, and nothing will stop us from letting this expression flow as we joyously reconnect with the legions of willing spiritual assistors stationed in the higher realms.</p><p> </p><p>Wes Annac – Delivering the reminder that the veil between us and heaven is thinning.</p><p> </p><p><i>I’m a 20 year old awakening seeker and creator of</i> <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/">The Aquarius Paradigm</a> <i>daily news site.</i></p><p>The Aquarius Paradigm <i>features daily spiritual and alternative news, as well as articles I’ve written and more</i>. <i>Its purpose is to awaken and uplift by providing material that’s spiritually inspired and/or related to the fall of the planetary elite and our entrance into a positive future.</i></p><p><i>I can also be found at</i> <a href="http://wesannac.com/">Conscious Oneness</a>, <a href="http://goldenageofgaia.com/author/wes-annac/">The Golden Age of Gaia</a>, <a href="http://lightworkers.org/user/36129">Lightworkers.org</a>, <a href="http://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/profile/WesA'">Ashtar Command Crew</a>, Facebook (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/wes.annac">Wes Annac</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/aquariusparadigm">The Aquarius Paradigm</a>), and <a href="https://twitter.com/WesAnnac">Twitter</a>.</p><p> </p><p><a href="http://diamond-coaching.de/channeling-seminar/channeling.jpg">Photo Credit</a></p></div>The Spirit World Chronicles: The Silver Cord - Part 2/2https://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/the-spirit-world-chronicles-the-silver-cord-part-2-22014-03-06T17:01:14.000Z2014-03-06T17:01:14.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><a href="http://www.cyprusspirit.com/obe_ez.jpg" target="_blank"><img width="584" height="413" class="align-left" style="width:193px;height:146px;" src="http://www.cyprusspirit.com/obe_ez.jpg?width=584" alt="obe_ez.jpg?width=584" /></a>Written by Wes Annac, the Aquarius Paradigm</p><p> </p><p>Concluded from <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/2014/03/05/the-spirit-world-chronicles-the-silver-cord-part-12/">Part 1</a></p><p> </p><p>John Heslop confirms what we’ve learned so far about the unity between the physical and etheric body.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Now death is merely the severing of the psychic cord which unites the two bodies.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The silver cord is the etheric body’s connection to the physical, as well as the physical body’s connection to the spiritual. As Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson says below, it enables us to traverse the spirit realms when our bodies sleep at night and experience earthly consciousness during the day.<span id="more-34241"></span></p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The spirit body exactly coincides with the physical body, and during waking hours the two are inseparable. When sleep takes place the spirit body withdraws from the physical body, but the former is attached to the latter by a magnetic cord.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">I call it a magnetic cord for want of a better name. It is a veritable life-line. Its elasticity is enormous since the spirit body can travel either throughout the earth during sleeping hours or throughout the spirit world subject to special conditions and limitations.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>Personally, I wonder what the ‘special conditions and limitations’ are for our spiritual travels. Maybe our connection to the physical body renders us unable to experience certain things when we’re out and about, but of course, this’ll dissolve when we pass on.</p><p> </p><p>However limited we might be in our dreamtime travels, we’ll rediscover the eternal nature of consciousness in an unhindered way when we pass on. Spiritual evolution is constant, and if someone was to pass on before they evolved, they’d continue their work in spirit.</p><p> </p><p>As Benson tells us below, the elasticity of the silver cord enables us to travel broadly when we sleep, even if we’re limited in some ways.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“However vast the distance between the sleeping physical body and the temporarily released spirit body, the magnetic cord can span the distance easily and perfectly and without any diminution of its active agency, which is to sustain life in the earthly body. The life-line will, as its length increases, become exceedingly fine and almost hair-like in appearance.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>I’m sure the silver cord looks beautiful when we expand it to hair-like thinness. A lot of us probably travel pretty far in our sleep realms, and the most aware seekers probably stretch themselves pretty far to go to the places they’re able to.</p><p> </p><p>The fact that we can access the etheric realms in our sleep makes us very fortunate. Even though we don’t remember the vast majority of our experiences, we’re able to reenter these realms temporarily while our physical bodies gain strength for the next day. With lucid dreaming, we can even consciously experience these travels.</p><p> </p><p>Are we not incredibly fortunate?</p><p> </p><p>Benson continues: “Just so long as the magnetic cord is joined to the earthly body, just so long will earthly life remain in the physical body. But the moment that dissolution takes place the life-line is severed, the spirit is free to live in its own element, while the physical body will decay in the manner which is perfectly familiar to you upon earth.” (4)</p><p> </p><p>We’re enabled to return home after our lifeline to earth is broken, but when the silver cord is still attached, we’ll continue to experience physicality. Eventually, we’ll all return to our “own element” and we’ll do so with the brimming love the heart space has to offer.</p><p> </p><p>When the time comes, we’ll return home with the utmost exuberance as long as we keep the eternal nature of consciousness in mind.</p><p> </p><p>Benson then tells us that the process of death isn’t nearly as dreadful as people have made it out to be.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The death of the physical body, then, is simply the severance of the magnetic cord, and, as far as the physical body is concerned, it is closely akin to ordinary sleep. There does not seem anything very dreadful about this straightforward process if a little thought is given to it.” (5)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>It’s easy to fear death and easier to avoid it, but eventually, we’ll all realize it for the simple, benevolent process it really is. There’s nothing about this process we should fear, and those who fear it tend to have the most difficulty accepting when the transition comes.</p><p> </p><p>Death is a gentle process that subtly releases us from the confines of physicality, and if we keep this in mind, we’ll enjoy the life we’re living now with the understanding that our essence will never die. Who we are at the core of our being will always remain intact, and as long as we make the effort, we’ll be able to feel our deeper essence on the earth and in spirit.</p><p> </p><p>Julia Ames tells us that nobody usually feels the silver cord snap when death takes place.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The snapping of consciousness between the soul and the tenement, if I may so speak of it, is usually not felt by the soul. With some it is different. They feel as if it were the slow breaking, one by one, of the threads which connect the soul with its tenement; but the process is not painful, even when it is protracted.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">I have spoken to many on the subject and the majority tell me that their experience agrees with mine. They could not even say that they could remember the exact moment when the body parted company with their soul.” (6)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>According to the testimonies we’ve been given, a lot of people don’t feel anything at all when they pass on. Some people feel a lightening of sorts, and everyone eventually feels the greater consciousness that results from death, but the process itself tends to go unrealized by some because of its painlessness.</p><p> </p><p>H.W. Engholm tells us about a particular woman’s peaceful passing.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“‘She fell asleep,’ says one of the messages which describe the passing of such a spirit: ‘she fell asleep, and the cord of life was severed by our watching friends, and then softly they awoke her, and she looked up and smiled very sweetly into the face of one who leaned over her.’” (7)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>This person was able to greet her gentle death with the same level of grace she’d been shown by her guides, and even though a lot of people fear death and make their transitions harder as a result, a lot of others are able to face it head-on and calmly greet the other side.</p><p> </p><p>Others probably greet it enthusiastically when they realize their death has taken place. Our guides might be busy with initiates who feared death all their lives, but they’re also able to welcome seekers who are ready and assured of what lies ahead of them.</p><p> </p><p>Wellesley Tudor Pole tells us about his experience watching the death of one ‘Major P.’ take place.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“3.15 p.m. Two figures have appeared and stand one on either side of [Major P.'s] bed against the wall. …</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">3.55 p.m. The two figures swoop down over the bed and seem to break off the ‘cords’ at points close to the physical body. Immediately I see that the form or double [of Major P.] rises about two feet from its original position, but remains horizontal, and at this same moment Major P.’s heart stops beating.” (8)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>This seems to be how a lot of deaths take place, and like every other account we’ve examined, we can notice the mention of the silver cord’s severance when this man passed on. It’s obvious that this severance is a big part of the transition of death, and the silver cord seems very important to our experience of life here on earth.</p><p> </p><p>It’s been said endlessly that we’re spiritual beings having a human experience, and the etheric cord we all hold within apparently keeps our spirits anchored on this planet. Numerous discarnate sources have independently confirmed its existence and importance, in life and death, and you’re all encouraged to learn more about it if it interests you.</p><p> </p><p>This has only been the first installment of the <i>Spirit World Chronicles</i>, and next time, we’re going to examine the uniqueness of each respective transition and the painless nature of death. We’ve only hit the tip of the iceberg in this first installment, and there’ll be many, many more that’ll further explore the transition of death and the realms beyond.</p><p> </p><p>We have a lot to learn about the realms that exist beyond the earth, and whether we learn about them now or later, our remembrance of them is as inevitable as the ascent back to Source it’ll cause.</p><p> </p><p>Wes Annac – In appreciation for the eternal nature of consciousness and the painlessness of death.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1)- John Heslop through F.

This subject has fascinated me all my life, and before I became aware of spirit, I was scared of death and the prospect of not living on when the body dies.</p><p> </p><p>The idea of infinite nothingness was unsettling to say the least, and now, it feels better than I can express to know that death isn’t the end of life and that brimming states of consciousness exist just beyond our perception, which we’ll return to when the physical body dies.</p><p> </p><p>The material out there about life after death is very interesting, and it’s opened me up to a whole new world of insight about the realms beyond. I’m honored to be able to write about this subject, and I’ve written two articles about it already: <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/ascension/death-is-the-beginning-of-life/">Death is the Beginning of Life</a> and <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/ascension/death-a-simple-and-unexpected-transition/">Death: A Simple and Unexpected Transition</a>.<span id="more-34213"></span></p><p> </p><p>I’ve written about this subject so much because it’s close to my heart. It’s liberating to know that consciousness is eternal, and just as I’ve discovered amidst researching this subject, there are a lot of different realms beyond the earth for us to traverse.</p><p> </p><p>People who’ve crossed over have returned through mediums to tell us about the realms beyond, and they haven’t given us fluffy, kiddy explanations – they’ve given detailed explanations of these realms and what they’re like.</p><p> </p><p>The things we’re going to examine go far beyond the stereotypical perception of channeled or medium-delivered material. Like most misunderstood channeled material, they’re very genuine and filled with rich discussion about things society has yet to believe in.</p><p> </p><p>In this series, we’re going to take a journey through the veil and learn about everything the other side has to offer.</p><p> </p><p>We’re going to explore every facet of the life beyond – from what dying is like to what the best and worst etheric realms are like. The information we’ve been given about the afterlife is practically infinite, and it’s available for us to draw on and receive incredible insight from.</p><p> </p><p>I’d like to present this material in an informative and enjoyable format, for myself and all of you, and I’ll be learning most of the things we examine for the first time too. I’m excited to go on this adventure with all of you, and the hope is for us to expand our understanding of what happens to the soul at death and what the spirit realms are like.</p><p> </p><p>Most seekers probably have a general grasp on life after death and the realms beyond, but here, we’re basically going to travel through these realms as we learn new things about them that are intended to refine our understanding of them.</p><p> </p><p>As I examined in my first two reports, death can either be rich and lightening or relatively uneventful, rendering us unable to understand that any change has taken place. Humanity’s views of death have distorted our experience of it, and some people are too rigidly set in their ways to believe that consciousness lives on.</p><p> </p><p>People who know that consciousness is eternal are usually able to accept when they’ve passed on, and as a result, their initial etheric experiences are much more enjoyable. The hope for this and everything I else I’ve written about life after death is to help as many as possible people become aware of it, because their eventual transitions will be much easier if they do.</p><p> </p><p>We’ll begin our journey by learning about the severance of the ‘silver cord’ that holds the etheric body inside the physical temple. For those who don’t know, our etheric bodies are connected to our physical bodies via the silver cord.</p><p> </p><p>As our etheric selves, we navigate physicality from within human bodies that we’re attached to with an etheric cord, which breaks away from the body when it dies. We remain tethered to the body when we fall asleep at night and temporarily leave, but when it dies, the silver cord breaks and frees us from the oppressive weight of physicality.</p><p> </p><p>We’re then able to begin our adventure into the realms beyond the physical earth. Mike Swain starts us out by telling us about the silver cord’s severance.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“When the soul detaches itself from the body, the silver cord is severed completely. This is the beginning and the end of the mechanics of death.” (1)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>We’re set free by the silver chord’s detachment from the physical body, and a lot of people have reported the feeling of floating above their bodies after they died. This is probably because the etheric body is free for the first time in a long time and follows a natural instinct to float or hover until one’s consciousness takes over again.</p><p> </p><p>According to Silver Birch, an extension of the silver cord causes its severance at the time of death. Interestingly enough, we’ll learn later that in the dream state, the silver cord is able to be stretched very far.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“Those who have clairvoyance will see that the parting is finally accomplished when the cord connecting the spirit body to the physical one, after being extended as the spirit body gradually moves away, is cut. When that severance takes place, death occurs. There is nothing and nobody in your world who can by any means enable the physical body to live again.” (2)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>In essence, the silver cord’s detachment from the body is the final stage of physical death. When this happens, we’re enabled to greet the greater states of consciousness beyond and start our real lives. We’re able to start <i>really</i> living, and our minds and hearts are opened to a much purer reality that we can explore with exuberance.</p><p> </p><p>The silver cord helps us make our etheric travels when we sleep at night, and it also helps us receive greater wisdom while we’re awake. An unnamed spirit teacher through Betty Bethards makes a distinction between our dreamtime state and our after-death state.</p><p> </p><p style="padding-left:30px;">“The only difference between the death state and the dream state is that the silver cord, which is much like an umbilical cord connecting the soul with the body, is severed in death. This cord allows the spirit to travel in the various realms and planes beyond the physical at night, and to receive higher teachings.</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p style="padding-left:30px;">In the state of so-called death, the energy – your spirit – leaves the body and does not return.” (3)</p><p style="padding-left:30px;"></p><p>The silver cord is the physical body’s link to the spiritual, and everything we receive from the other side comes from this link. When the physical body runs its course, the etheric body is freed from it in the form of the silver cord’s detachment, but while we’re here, we receive greater wisdom and insight via this etheric cord.</p><p> </p><p>Concluded in Part 2 tomorrow.</p><p> </p><h2>Footnotes:</h2><p> </p><p>(1)- Jasper Swain, From My World to Yours: A Young Man’s Account of the Afterlife.

Ive seen him 5 times, each time I would astral project threw pitch black then seeing green and white then I was just there. The world I went to was knee high bladed grass fields and foot hills as far as the eyes could see and every time I would just show up, I would be at the exact far side of the crystal clear pond, I stood across the pond from the willow tree that sat at the edge of the pond on the other side, the sky was pretty much the same color with a slight breeze and very perfect fluffy white clouds. the place was beautiful!!</p><p>Each time we would talk but the 4th time I fell in love with him, then the 5th time I had a hard time finding him then he appeared above the pond and said we can no longer see one another and our love could never be and from his feet up he turned into rain and dissipated into the pond.</p><p>I have never been able to find him or this dimension ever since! and I still do not know of his name.</p><p>The picture of his is pretty exact except he was very pale skin. I put the robe on him otherwise he just wore plain white pants and shirtless, no body hair.

Peace of mind can be obtained in myriad ways, and for me, spending time out in beautiful and revitalizing nature can help unprecedented peace of mind come forth.</p><p></p><p>From a peaceful and balanced place, we can do whatever we feel drawn to in regards to assisting the planetary awakening, and I can say from my own experience, however limited, that the drive to throw oneself into helping awaken the populace becomes incredibly strong when a personal awakening and establishment of peace of mind comes about.<span id="more-30789"></span></p><p></p><p>Even though the peaceful, meditative place of stillness we can access has been called zero-point, the inspiration we can feel from it can see us actively contribute to our evolution. I can quite honestly say that my desire to stop what’s become a rolling freight train (i.e. stop producing material) is shrinking by the day as I recognize that I, like you, am in the sacred position of being able to use my mind, my voice, and my perspective for the benefit of others.</p><p></p><p>Along with this, I’ll admit that I really enjoy writing and always have. Recognizing that I can start with any topic or idea and basically flow on from there, the notion of ceasing writing even for a day is starting to resonate less with me.</p><p></p><p>Writing has obviously been utilized in a widespread way in our society, but in my opinion, the potential for writing to be used as a tool to spread positivity and awareness, much like music, has only just begun to be discovered. Writing provides the perfect outlet for me to connect with you all, as I’ve said before, and the notion of being able to utilize it for a greater potential is very exciting.</p><p></p><p>We’re refining and redefining how we see myriad things in our society, and I think that this is a result of the overall revamp taking place. As the illusion is peeled away from our eyes, minds and hearts, the resulting broadened horizons leave us with a less distorted understanding of pretty much every aspect of our existence.</p><p></p><p>I can imagine a politically and environmentally aware humanity seeing things like the genetic engineering of our food supply and the environmentally harmful methods we use to extract the Earth’s natural resources in an entirely new light, and the resulting drive to change things being stronger than it’s ever been.</p><p></p><p>Social action and resulting change are inevitable, in my opinion, and the level of social action being taken can grow if we choose to engage the things happening on our planet from a politically, environmentally and spiritually aware perspective.</p><p></p><p>I think that becoming spiritually aware will give us a huge advantage in regards to addressing everything about our society in need of mending, and as has been said in the past, everyone’s unique perspective can be honored and utilized in a new paradigm where the voices of all are heard.</p><p></p><p>The individual cultivation of enlightenment in each of us can perhaps help us come together with little to no bitterness between races and nations, but I recognize that this is a potentially far-off goal and that much remains to be done before it can come about. Nevertheless, I remain unflinchingly assured that it can be done.</p><p></p><p>Per the individual awakening of each of us to the false and hollow nature of the played-upon differences between us, we can come together in the greatest and strongest sense to start taking the social action necessary to bring our planet into the new paradigm we’re ready to see come about.</p><p></p><p>Personally, expressing the spiritually oriented perspective I feel blessed to have will forever be a part of what I choose to do for humanity, and I can envision waves of awakening seekers understanding the incredible platform for spiritual expression writing can be and aptly producing works we can all appreciate and benefit from.</p><p></p><p>I think that everything we do for each other, ourselves and the planet boils down to an exchange of energy. As you read or listen to this, you absorb the perspective I intend to impart unto it as well as the energy signature of me, the writer, and likewise, someone else may choose to write a catchy, conscious song that they’ll impart their energy signature unto.</p><p></p><p>We’ll exchange energy with each other and with the Earth as we heal Her of the widespread damage and pollution we’ve caused, and I can envision our collective rediscovery of our interlinked nature motivating us further to really get to work.</p><p></p><p>Gaining collective perception of the oneness energy comprising us and our reality could very well help us find unity as we address the biggest problems holding us back, and for now, I’ll recommend acting upon any and all inspiration you feel within to contribute to this growing revolution.</p><p></p><p>It’s become clear that it’ll only continue to grow, and you can be a part of it right now if you feel particularly drawn to doing so.</p><p></p><p>Wes Annac – Feeling as inspired as ever, with the desire to spread the inspirational wealth around.</p><p></p><p>Image: <a href="http://www.gracebaptistsperry.org/images/Spirit%20of%20Love.jpg">http://www.gracebaptistsperry.org/images/Spirit%20of%20Love.jpg</a></p><p></p><p><i>Wes Annac is a 20 year old awakening seeker and creator of</i> <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/">The Aquarius Paradigm</a> <i>daily news site.</i></p><p></p><p>The Aquarius Paradigm <i>features daily spiritual and alternative news, as well as writings from Wes and channeled messages from our Universal Family</i>. <i>Come check us out!</i></p><p></p><p><i>See also</i> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/aquariusparadigm">The Aquarius Paradigm on Facebook</a>, <a href="http://wesannac.com/">Wes Annac’s Personal Blog</a> <i>and</i> <a href="http://goldenageofgaia.com/">The Golden Age of Gaia</a><i>.</i></p></div></div>Our Universal Family: Sharing and Spreading the Love of Spirithttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/our-universal-family-sharing-and-spreading-the-love-of-spirit2013-11-08T17:21:37.000Z2013-11-08T17:21:37.000ZWes Annachttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/WesAnnac<div><p><a href="http://aquariuschannelings.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/img_3566.jpg" target="_blank"><img width="261" class="align-left" src="http://aquariuschannelings.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/img_3566.jpg?w=261&h=196&width=261" alt="img_3566.jpg?w=261&h=196&width=261" /></a><em>A Fall Day Walk - Photo by PocahontasBrandy.</em></p><p> </p><p>Channeled through Wes Annac, The Aquarius Paradigm</p><div class="entry clear-block"><p></p><p>The evolution of humanity has been on a full course to manifest for centuries of your time, but has been accelerated in the last century as more souls are led to understand things they would’ve previously been closed-off to.</p><p></p><p>We note the deepening spiritual searches many of you find yourselves embarking on, and we can only encourage your quests and remind you that we’re forever here with you and that it’s only the extent to which you convince yourselves we’re not that determines your experience of us.</p><p></p><p>If you can allow yourselves to believe and know, truly know, that we’re real and with you, walking by your side in every moment, then you’ll experience a strong and constantly replenished connection with us.</p><p></p><p>If you let yourselves stray away from the belief that we’re real and with you, then you’ll naturally experience what you’ve sewn for yourselves. The point we wish to drive home is that you’re forever the Creators of your experience and just where you choose to go from here will be decided not by us, but by you.<span id="more-29955"></span></p><p></p><h2>Expanding Horizons</h2><p></p><p>We note with Love and joy the progress being made on your spiritual paths as many of you seek to deepen your understanding of everything based in the spiritual, and as you deepen your searches your horizons expand in every sense.</p><p></p><p>In the physical sense, your body is being upgraded as your cells embark on the sacred changeover from carbon to crystalline that you’ve heard so much about.</p><p></p><p>On a spiritual level, you’re uncovering things that would’ve previously been very difficult to access or obtain, and it’s for this reason that we ask you to see that you’re heading into a bright future filled with expansion and understanding of so many things you’ve allowed yourselves to forget over time.</p><p></p><p>Humanity has made your way through the lower dimensions and now stands ready to experience the next cycle in your evolutionary growth, and in this crucial time of change, your populace is learning to come together and express harmony amongst one another rather than continue to fight and pass pain around your collective consciousness.</p><p></p><p>So much Love is being reignited in the hearts of myriad Earthly souls who you’d perhaps never expect to awaken, and we ask you to expect surprises in this future you’re Creating, for much can happen on the individual and planetary level that you wouldn’t expect.</p><p></p><p>Much can happen amidst the course of your personal Lives from here on out that’ll surprise you, and much will happen in your physical reality that’ll turn some heads to say the least.</p><p></p><p>What we mean is that the changes needing made to your society could come about in a surprising and rapid manner for many, and much is ongoing in this moment to help bring your planet into the Light from our side of your ever-thinning veil.</p><p></p><p>While we have and continue to do much for your Earthly ascension, the inspiration and ability lies in the awakening humanity to enact the greatest changes you’ve heard so much about.</p><p></p><p>Even the awakening Lightworkers who don’t feel as if they’ve done a thing have contributed much positive energy to the collective consciousness of humanity, and this positive energy is needed and happily utilized in your collective consciousness to help transmute the ever-pervasive pain and separation.</p><p></p><p>As you express the purest vibration you can yet obtain, your entire collective consciousness benefits immensely.</p><p></p><h2>No Physical Barriers to your Light</h2><p></p><p>An evolving soul Living in your state of New York, for example, could benefit from the energy being given out by another in the Netherlands. There are no physical barriers to your Light, and you can quite instantly connect with another in a deepened state of consciousness despite how far away they Live in your physical reality.</p><p></p><p>When accessing the everlasting and awe-inspiring power of spirit, there’s nothing you can’t do or be and no task too large for you to undertake. Individually, you possess much power indeed but as you unite and begin collectively building your future, you’ll understand the incredible and important power you wield together.</p><p></p><p>The power humanity collectively wields, which you largely haven’t yet understood, makes your unity that much more important. Of course, we’d never seek to push this or any other ideal onto you, but to simply remind you of the importance of coming together and allowing any perceived bitterness bred from differences between you and another to fall away.</p><p></p><p>The Love and joy of your evolving existence is being picked up on by myriad souls as they come to find that they don’t have to feed into the qualities of your Earthly experience that could be seen as negative or that drag on your spirits.</p><p></p><p>You’re meant to enjoy yourselves and every facet of your Earthly experience, and those of you with nine-to-five jobs that you feel don’t challenge or excite you are correct.</p><p></p><p>Though we recognize and appreciate that many of you feel you have no other choice than to work away for your physical survival while looking toward a wonderful higher-dimensional future, we say that you can undertake ventures that truly do excite you and see you use your capabilities, physical and spiritual, for the good of yourselves and the good of the planet.</p><p></p><p>You can take the unique ability you possess and put it to use for the Earth’s ascension, and it simply takes the choice to do so for it to come about. Even those of you with Earthly jobs can perhaps find time and energy to do what excites you and makes you happy, whether it’s for the Earth’s ascension or not, if you so choose.</p><p></p><h2>Your Sacred Mission</h2><p></p><p>Serving others can breed a sense of satisfaction and understanding that you’ve been able to help another along their growth, but serving oneself in the form of doing things that one really enjoys and can feel the richness of Life because of is also recommended.</p><p></p><p>Those of you who work actively for humanity’s evolution will benefit from allowing yourselves the necessary time to pursue other activities that you enjoy or that fill you with the Love of spirit, though we note that for many of you, your work for the Earth’s ascension provides you just that and we couldn’t be happier about this fact.</p><p></p><p>Many of you have made it your sacred mission to experience the lower dimensions of intensity and duality accompanying the Earth for the purpose of integrating every twisted-up and dense energy as you work to help inform and uplift the collective about the reality of their existence as spiritual beings rediscovering full consciousness.</p><p></p><p>As many of you have made this your mission, you’ve provided many works designed to do just that and plenty of others have picked up on those works and become inspired to work away themselves in the manner they’ve best found themselves able to.</p><p></p><p>Channeling our energies and guidance is just one way you can get active in helping your populace find enlightenment again, and as always, we wholeheartedly recommend using your voice and acting upon the inspiration many of you feel within to produce works that come from the heart.</p><p></p><p>Exposure of the souls who’ve acted as representations for the density and negativity fed by the general public could be seen as important, but in your evolving day and age, it can benefit you much more to focus yourselves on your spiritual evolution and on building a planetary society that can welcome the presence of the many civilizations existing off of your planet and actively monitoring your evolution with the intent of assisting you in mind.</p><p></p><p>You can bring your planet’s vibration to a place where open acceptance of us becomes easy, and as you work to raise the collective vibration, we’re able to be closer with your planet in every moment that passes.</p><p></p><p>We ask you to monitor yourselves and the vibration you’re on in every moment, because your personal actions are important to the planetary vibration and what you do or how you feel affects your collective much more than you’ve let yourselves believe.</p><p></p><p>This is because of the oneness between each of you as sacred aspects of Source, and the vibration you put yourselves on can determine, in many cases, the vibration another is on who consciously or unconsciously feels close with your energy.</p><p></p><h2>Moths to a Higher-Dimensional Light</h2><p></p><p>There are people from all walks of Life on your planet who feel close with the energy of myriad awakening souls, because they’re like moths who are attracted to the shining higher-dimensional Light being emanated now for reasons they don’t understand.</p><p></p><p>Consciously, many of these people don’t yet understand the spiritual realms or even know the awakened souls they feel subconsciously and energetically attracted to.</p><p></p><p>Some will find themselves drawn to whoever they feel the closest with, as everything that happens in your Lives is ordained and planned by you and by the facets of your higher self that watch your experiences play out and assist in your ascension.</p><p></p><p>We encourage finding and sustaining an active link to your higher self, because your higher self is the collection of all of the lower-dimensional experiences you’ve had and has essentially been through what you have.</p><p></p><p>The higher self has much guidance and advice to give, having experienced what you have already, and when connecting with the higher self you can find much personal guidance and information being given about your experience.</p><p></p><p>Many of the inspired writings being given by awakening souls of late are coming in part from their higher selves, and when you feel the inspiration to produce anything, be it a writing, music, a channeling or anything else, you can bet that your higher self has a hand in it.</p><p></p><p>The higher self guides you amidst the course of your everyday experience, and like us, seeks to offer and impart as much Love and gained knowledge as possible for you whilst you go about the trials and tribulations of the evolving Earthly experience.</p><p></p><p>Though you’ve decided to come to the Earth from the higher dimensions knowing of the potential to lose yourselves in the mucky unawareness it can offer, you’ve arrived with constantly sustained links to your closest guides and to your higher self, as your spiritual links can never be broken – only temporarily forgotten about.</p><p></p><h2>Building a New Paradigm</h2><p></p><p>You can only forget about the reality of your spiritual connection or the reality of the spiritual realms in general, and these realms can never go away from you and have never desired to.</p><p></p><p>We have no desire to suddenly depart from the consciousness of the awakening public, and rather, we excitedly await the time when we can be with you on your ground, helping you build your new paradigm and watching with Love from a detached standpoint.</p><p></p><p>When we say detached standpoint, what we mean is that beyond the widespread assistance we’ll offer, even when on your planet we’ll look toward humanity to bring about the changes you’ve wished to see.</p><p></p><p>We’ll have a lot to give indeed that we feel will be very beneficial to your society, but when it comes to enacting the things we’ll suggest or utilizing the technology we’ll share openly, which we’ll help you operate and understand, it’ll be up to humanity.</p><p></p><p>We anticipate humanity excitedly taking the reins and working with much of yourselves on the building of your new paradigm, and while it’s been mentioned and referenced a lot, some still don’t understand just what a new Earthly paradigm is.</p><p></p><p>From our standpoint, a new paradigm represents bringing (heightened) spiritual reality into your current, physical Earthly existence.</p><p></p><p>A new paradigm represents breaking Earthly tradition in favor of a new standard that works for every soul on your planet, and like many of you, we work with much of ourselves to help bring new paradigms about on myriad lower-dimensional planets who’s civilizations are ready to see the Light and ascend.</p><p> </p><p>As various planets ascend, so is the Universal ascension kicked into a higher gear. The evolution of the Earth will do and has already done much for the Universal ascension, as the Earth has been a hub for darkness and lower-dimensionality of extreme proportions and has radiated those energies out to the rest of Creation to be picked up on and felt by others.</p><p> </p><p>The vibration being emanated from the Earth affects other planets and the Universe as a whole, and this is because everything is connected in this infinite Universal matrix of consciousness.</p><p></p><p>There can be no separation or duality in the higher dimensions you’re growing back toward, because all of the polarities have been resolved and harmony and peace reign amongst every facet of consciousness.</p><p></p><p>Every facet of consciousness is coming to rediscover ourselves as the Creator of our existence, and as we evolve we help as many others as possible to see the Light and find individual or collective evolution. Sharing and spreading the Love of spirit is one of our main goals in communicating with humanity, and if we can impart a good vibration unto you, then we’ve done our jobs well.</p><p></p><h2>Connection waits to be Sought</h2><p></p><p>If we can help you feel a higher vibration even for a moment amidst the course of the at times difficult Earthly experience, then we’re satisfied with the delivering of our communications.</p><p></p><p>We know that many of you wish for a closer connection with us when reading our communications, and we say with Love that this connection is ever ready and waiting to be sought and picked up on by each of you who feels close with our energies and impressions.</p><p></p><p>Though we’re speaking with you directly in the form of words the mind of our scribe is translating into impressions, the most direct connection with us can be found in the hearts of each of you and we recommend for everyone who feels close with our energies to seek communion with us yourselves, for in doing so you could very well find enthusiastic contact.</p><p></p><p>The initial “problem” if you wish to call it that, when many souls choose to connect with us, is that they expect this connection to come about in a purely physical manner or in a manner that they’d expect or that’d make sense to them with their current perception.</p><p></p><p>We should say that we don’t appear physically before most channels and directly offer physical words, but rather, connection with us is attained within and when in a deeper state of consciousness.</p><p></p><p>The method we utilize to communicate with our scribe is one of sending energetic impressions to you that are received by heart and decoded by mind into physical words and phrases.</p><p></p><p>You may note that some of the words and phrases we give here are commonly used by our scribe, and this is because of his mental interpretation of the communication and of the impressions we’re giving as he receives them in his heart.</p><p></p><p>An opened heart will see you very easily able to access the spiritual realms and everything that comes with them, and as we make our final impressions for this communication, we excitedly await the willing contact of as many of you as possible.</p><p></p><p>To be able to communicate with the Earth or any Earthly soul is quite an accomplishment to us given the manner in which the lower vibrations and the resulting veils have thrived on your planet, but the growing spiritual revolution taking place is seeing more souls able and willing to open up and connect with us.</p><p></p><p>As has been said in the past, you can expect a flood of channels to soon arrive as your general public understands the spiritual realms and the existence of us within them and aptly seeks to connect with us.</p><p></p><p>Those of you who could see yourselves as having pioneered channeling can help plenty of others in the time ahead when they become open to their personal spiritual connection, and you can expect the widespread utilization of your telepathic ability to eventually result in direct, happy and open visits from us.</p><p></p><p>Thank you to our Universal Family.</p><p></p><p>–</p><p></p><p><i>Wes Annac is a 20 year old awakening seeker and creator of</i> <a href="http://aquariusparadigm.com/">The Aquarius Paradigm</a> <i>daily news site.</i></p><p></p><p>The Aquarius Paradigm <i>features daily spiritual and alternative news, as well as writings from Wes and channeled messages from our Universal Family</i>. <i>Come check us out!</i></p><p></p><p><i>Also see</i> <a href="http://wesannac.com/">Wes Annac’s Personal Blog</a> <i>and</i> <a href="http://goldenageofgaia.com/">The Golden Age of Gaia</a><i>.</i></p></div></div>Are You A Galactic Warrior?https://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/forum/topics/are-you-a-galactic-warrior2013-10-09T01:30:19.000Z2013-10-09T01:30:19.000ZSon Light Angelhttps://www.ashtarcommandcrew.net/members/SonLightAngel<div><div style="color:#0000FF;"><div class="separator" style="clear:both;text-align:center;"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-p5IQe_Rb3uc/UlQx4crbJ0I/AAAAAAAABH0/AHUmuTCxnrc/s1600/1234885_596301397100686_742324781_n.jpg" style="margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-p5IQe_Rb3uc/UlQx4crbJ0I/AAAAAAAABH0/AHUmuTCxnrc/s400/1234885_596301397100686_742324781_n.jpg" border="0" height="400" width="400" alt="1234885_596301397100686_742324781_n.jpg" /></span></a></span></div></div><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">There are 3 types of Lightworkers: One is all about 'Love and Light' and the second is the 'Galactic Warrior' who fights in the name of 'Love and Light'.</span></div><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">The other is who pierce through duality into unity. They are neither "love and lighters" nor are they "galactic warriors". I guess you could call them "space holders". That's what I do, I hold the space for all to be one, with no true opposition, and no 'good vs. evil'. Basically I'm a be-before-do, non-judgmentalist. Activism is thoroughly rooted in duality.</span></div><p></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">Many people will debate over this topic but ultimately, both have the same intention yet go about their missions in different ways.</span></div><div style="color:#0000FF;"></div><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">Those who are Love and Lightworkers are performing a very important service by holding and maintaining the vibration of Love and Light without accepting any fear-based, 3rd dimensional aspects of this reality. An example of a Love and Lightworker may be the person who is either enamored by channeling articles or may be a channeler, himself (or herself).</span></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">The Galactic Warriors see and acknowledge these fear-based realities and are willing to fight for those who are unable to stand up for the Light. An example of the Galactic Warrior is the activist who protests the issues that are detrimental to humanity's best interests and create an awareness for those who may be beginning their spiritual journeys.</span></div><p></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">There is a good chance that each of these groups are intimately tied to a larger respective soul group(s) and/or star family/families.</span></div><p></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">I find it interesting to see how each person within these groups are unknowingly attracted to one another but are intimately connected on the soul level. For example, within seconds of meeting someone within the spirituality genre, you immediately know which group this person belongs to. If it happens to be the group you're associated with, then you tend to develop an immediate bond with this person. You may also feel as though you have known this person for a long time and perhaps, many lifetimes.</span></div><p></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">On the other side of the veil, you literally have millions of family members in your particular soul group(s). You made numerous soul contracts with thousands of people (or more!) who would come and go, in and out of your life during this incarnation.</span></div><p></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">In the end, there in only Love and Light. If you tend to have an affinity to either of these groups, then chances are, this is part of your soul family. You are here for a purpose and you have your mission. For the Love and Lighters, continue holding that energy. For the Galactic Warriors, continue to awaken those who are asleep. </span></div><p></p><div style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="color:#ffff00;">Regardless of which group you tend to be part of, we are both playing for the same team and in the end, all of humanity benefits from the work you are doing!</span></div><p></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">Pls see more:</span></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;"><a href="http://astralpulse.blogspot.com/2013/10/are-you-galactic-warrior.html">http://astralpulse.blogspot.com/2013/10/are-you-galactic-warrior.html</a></span></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">Come stay with us at</span></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">Self Empowerment Academy: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/SEmAcad"><span style="color:#ffff00;">http://www.facebook.com/SEmAcad</span></a></span></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">Master Your Destiny - Light Age Healing: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/groups/mydes"><span style="color:#ffff00;">http://www.facebook.com/groups/mydes</span></a></span></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">FAMILY OF LIGHT: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/groups/keywealth"><span style="color:#ffff00;">http://www.facebook.com/groups/keywealth</span></a></span></p><p><span style="color:#ffff00;">CELESTIAL DISCIPLINE: <a href="http://lightworkers.org/group/188794/family-light"><span style="color:#ffff00;">http://lightworkers.org/group/188794/family-light</span></a></span></p><div style="overflow:hidden;color:#000000;background-color:#ffffff;text-align:left;text-decoration:none;"></div></div>
