Paradise by Any Other Name

The following is an excerpt from Paradise, The Prime Real Estate of Consciousness. 

Heaven, Valhalla and Utopia are but a few of the many names given to a place of spiritual bliss and enlightenment—a carrot hung at the end of a stick comprised of study, long suffering and, for many, death. Virtually, every religion has held the belief that there is a state of existence in which there is no suffering, no evil, no trials, filled with joy, love and light—and most importantly, a personal presence of the divine.

The roads are many but the destination across religious beliefs join into one reality where what is most important in your belief is obtained. Therefore, it becomes a curious element of the concept of paradise that perhaps it is not constant but is arbitrary to your own belief system. This quickly affronts the belief that paradise is a place. There have been many wars fought over the centuries as to whose concept of paradise is correct. The one thing we know for sure is that never in history has war led to paradise.

Paradise, when understood as a state of being, makes more sense in relationship to individual perception. Does this mean that each […]

Apparitions

Are apparitions real? Yes. Each with its own meaning and method to reach those intended in a way that will be understood for the betterment of those who will listen.

Everything is an expression of consciousness. We are an energetic expression of consciousness. All expression of consciousness exist simultaneously in all forms of its existence. Consciousness will sometimes choose messengers that have or will exist in physical form to get attention or to make an impact. We might say to “be dramatic.”

Now apparitions truly exists, but it is a perception in the mind of the one who is having the vision. Yes, there are times where vast multitudes see the apparition or some evidence of it, but the vehicle is the one who perceives it.

Perhaps you have noticed that often it is a simple child or peasant who is graced with this experience. Seldom kings or pontiffs, because simpler minds are open and uncluttered and in the simplicity of their soul they are able to see—as are you and others when they become like the child. Visionaries have no agenda, no preconceived notion; yet, they are representative of the highest consciousness of all creation—one that can perceive God.

The Menace of Mediocrity

Jesus suggested if you are lukewarm, “ I will spit you out from my mouth.“ The Hindi Islamic cultures see indecision as a deadly sin and a blatant statement of dishonoring God.
What is mediocrity and why is it so condemned by so many spiritual beliefs?
Mediocrity is not indecision but rather a state created from indecision. It is a denial of one’s ability to choose and generally occurs because of fear or powerlessness. It is the fear to create and the resulting paralysis.

Religiously it is an “unforgivable” sin for the indecisive spirit because there is neither faith to rally you nor redemption to be obtained. It is a lack of commitment to one’s self and their creation. It perhaps is the ultimate state of powerlessness. Better to have tried and fail than not try at all.
Mediocrity is not limited to just spiritual matters but personal as well as civil responsibilities.
Some of the greatest travesties that have or are being inflicted on mankind are done because no one bothered to care and or stand up for their belief in an innate good. For those wishing to take your power away, they are banking on your mediocrity and, as a result, you […]

The Practical Application of Consciousness in Creation

The following is an excerpt from Cosmic Consciousness, The Personality of God Upon Creation.  

Consciousness is the initiator of all that exists, and the I AM expresses the realization of the whole of all existence. Yet, how does consciousness create and thought manifest? What are the practical applications to being a creative force in your reality?
In the physical plane of existence, creation is seen as active—a thought envisioned, a plan made, an action taken—to create what is envisioned.
In the world of temporality, these individual phases of creation are distinct and obvious. In the realms of consciousness, creation and the creator are a state of being. In the world of consciousness where time is of no affect, the conception and the creation are simultaneous. Without the creation, there can be no conception, and without the creator, there can be no manifestation.

We understand that this can be confusing when you are immersed in the linear concept of time. Creation is a multi-faceted process simultaneously occurring in the realms of spirit. In the higher dimensions of consciousness, creation takes no effort at all. Creation, by its very nature, is a symbiotic process for the creator sustains the creation, and the creation sustains the […]

Child of the Universe

The following is an excerpt from Cosmic Consciousness, The Personality of God Upon Creation.  

There is a unique expression of consciousness that can be identified within the universe in which you reside. It is the cosmic expression of consciousness manifested in the universal energies you experience. Just as children express certain traits of their parents and siblings, there is a familiar bond that unites them even with their varying personalities and experiences.

So it is with the universe. Each galaxy is a child of a greater parent, each holds a unique perspective on creation and expresses consciousness differently. Yet, there is an over-abiding presence of the consciousness of All That Is permeating each and every aspect of creation.
The cosmic consciousness is the personality of God imprinted upon what exists.
It is valuable to explore these cosmic traits of the creator; for, it will help better define you as a universal and divine being. What personality traits? What attitudes? What innate skills have you inherited from your cosmic parent? The exploration of this mini-book is to better understand the creator expressed in its children of all kingdoms, and you, as the pinnacle of creation, as a sentient being, have the responsibility to be […]

Expansion of Consciousness

In the infinite expansion of consciousness, the spiritual pilgrim becomes increasingly aware that the path to enlightenment is not a destination or a goal to be obtained, but an evolutionary process to participate in. Nothing in the universe is static, not even consciousness itself. All is dynamic and ever evolving and changing. Creation is the celebration of consciousness exploring itself—and so it is with your journey of spiritual awakening and awareness.
The wonderment is that neither you nor consciousness is finite, and the possibilities and the potential for expression of your existence are beyond measure.
In the process of spiritual growth and development, the truths of today may be the memories of tomorrow; yet, each and every discovery that you make on the path to enlightenment is an important step on the spiral stairs to the consciousness of All That Is.

To become locked or invested in a certain belief or dogma would be similar to stopping half the way up a staircase and declaring that you have arrived at the next floor. Spiritual truth is enhanced by openness and acceptance and the willingness to adapt and change, not in rigid structure and belief. The dynamic nature of existence, the dynamic nature […]

The Fork in The Road

There is a poem that speaks of a traveler coming upon a fork in the road and choosing the one less traveled—which made all the difference in his life. The takeaway is that the well-traveled road leads to a common, usual and familiar life, while the less-traveled road leads to an obviously more fulfilled life. Most people see the well-traveled road as wide and manicured, certainly without obstacles; the less-traveled road is seen as narrow, possibly with low-hanging branches and grass growing underfoot.

Could it be that both realities are the same, indistinguishable from each other? The truth is that it is not what road you take but how you travel it. It is simply a choice.
You have chosen to walk this journey called life; so, why not choose the more adventurous, scenic and interesting path?
Be willing to step aside from the random and routine, the commonplace and accepted. Step forward in your own unique expression of who you are.

Do not pre-judge the spiritual path as either difficult or precarious. You may encounter obstacles along the way, but that is no different than any road you take. Perhaps that fork in the road had two road signs: the more traveled road, an […]

The Sacredness of Science

The following is from Chapter 7, Convergence of Consciousness, the Harmonics of Creation.

The convergence of consciousness in creation is a dynamic force and a cornerstone of all that exists. To fully understand your creation and the consciousness in which you dwell, the dedicated student of spiritual enlightenment must consider the philosophical and theoretical aspects of creation, as well as scientific data and theory.
There is no conflict in consciousness between faith and science.
Science is the external exploration of an internal insight, and spirituality is the internal search that drives humanity to explore the world in which they dwell. It is a significant error to view spirituality without science or science without spirituality. To compartmentalize these two studies is to fracture the very truth humanity wishes to discover.
From where do you perceive the laws of science were derived?
What science discovers is the expression of the convergence of consciousness in creation is born from the only consciousness that ever is. When religious beliefs collide with scientific discovery, it is an indicator that either one or both perceive the information incorrectly. When correctly perceived, faith and science are harmonious, like two pieces of a puzzle.
Science without consciousness, or consciousness without science, leads to misunderstanding, […]

Love Yourself

The complexities of consciousness are a unique combination of the three necessary elements of creation: the source, the observer and the manifestation. The I AM of your being is the definition of that unique creative force; for, it is only in the awareness of self-identification that you can fully be expressive as conscious creators. That is why it has been said that to deny oneself or to lack in self-love is a direct affront and rejection of God; for, you cannot say you love God, call upon the divine or deem it holy if you despise, deny or reject your own expression of existence.

The creative force of All That Is never waivers in its compassion or its willingness to be of assistance. The imagined distance between you and the creator is in direct proportion to your lack of self-acceptance. To find oneself is to find God; to accept oneself is to experience divinity; for, therein lies the only pathway to paradise. Paradise is born from a self-emanating force reflecting the truth of your being. Just as your reality reflects your thoughts in consciousness, paradise is a reflection that you have accepted yourself, fully and completely, as the divine being […]

Acceptance Manifests

Focus, clarity and holding your consciousness toward your goals and desires are valuable attributes in creating the reality that you desire. These elements of consciousness indicate that you are receptive to what you desire in your life. They alleviate obstacles, minimize resistance and focus your intent on your goals. You do not need to earn, or is it your job to create what you desire but rather to accept it. All actions are statements of acceptance. Being creators is being in a state of willingness, acceptance and participation. Therefore, the affirmation that you are willing to participate, willing to accept and willing to be in divine will is the most powerful impetus in creating the reality you envision.

Though the creative process is the most powerful of all acts, it takes the least effort of all. The whole creation of the universe occurred with a gentle, simple, quiet thought. The act of acceptance and the creations of conduits to receive that which you desire is the work at hand for anyone wishing to achieve. Burdens can be made light; faith can be increased as you understand what you desire already exists. You are simply creating an attitude of acceptance and […]

Upon the Page

The following is from Chapter 5, Convergence of Consciousness, the Harmonics of Creation.

All creation is the result of the convergence of consciousness. Everything that exists has an energetic signature and a degree of conscious expression. The convergence of energy is the mechanism by which creation expresses. It is the pen in the creator’s hand. It is the ink upon the page of existence.

Convergence is the primary expression of consciousness in existence. Convergence creates. Without the interaction and joining of the elemental aspects of energy, physical expression, you would not exist. You, like the creator before you, are the artist of your reality, and the elements of consciousness are like the paint upon the master’s palette, waiting to be expressed upon the canvas of existence.

In many ways, the expression of consciousness into creation is not much different than any artistic endeavor. To be a masterful creator is to understand the mediums available to you and the tools you have to express. The artist has their paints, the musician their notes, each utilize their specific tools in creating their masterpiece. The same is true for the creator itself, and the same is true for you.

The convergence of creation into physical expression is […]

Convergent Clashes

The following is from Chapter 4, Convergence of Consciousness, the Harmonics of Creation.

It is obvious that the history of humanity has been riddled with conflict and chaos. It would seem that humanity’s psyche gravitates to disharmony rather than balance and peace. Be it on a universal scale, a global perspective, a work environment or a family dynamic, conflict and chaos always seem to be creeping around in the darkened corners of reality.

Not to recognize this tendency on humanity’s part would be to bury your head in the sands of denial; yet, you are told that the universe and all of its components interact in harmony and balance. Therefore, is humanity’s behavior an intentional affront to the natural balance of the universe or is it out of neglect or ignorance that humanity smashes its ego consciousness against creation’s natural balance?

The first clue to the answer lies in observing the inter-dynamic relationship between the aspects of creation and the resultant energy. Nature is not always peaceful; galaxies are colliding, even as we speak. It has been indicated that chaos is the seed of creation and a necessary component of it. Perhaps humanity’s tendency is an inappropriate response to chaos because of misunderstanding.

Humanity […]

Times Past

“Should old acquaintance be forgot” is a line to a popular song played on New Year’s Eve.

There is much discussion in spiritual circles and instruction in spiritual teachings to focus on the present—that all power is in the present, all possibility is in the present, and the past and the future do not exist. In essence that is true; yet, the concept wishing to be conveyed is often misinterpreted. In truth, you have only and will only exist in the present; it is the place of your perception; it is the place of your power. You exist nowhere else; yet, the past and the present also exist in this moment.

Immediately we can sense many readers cringing at the thought that their past exists in the present moment—rather than a negative circumstance–it is a positive situation—the present allows the past to be healed and the future to be created. It is a difficult translation for the human psyche to be instructed to live in an eternal present while listening to the clock ticking on the mantle. So as you reach the close of another year, it is appropriate to honor times past and lessons learned, and to anticipate a bright […]
