Good morning! No idea where today’s chat will lead us. So, let’s begin and just go with the flow, if that seems suitable?
Dearest Blossom, One and All. Naturally this is suitable to do so. When one is in the comfort of familiar friends, is that not what takes place? To go with the flow of conversation?
Yet, we would furthermore speak of THE FLOW.
For it is within the allowing of this FLOW that shall take you to a place within that exceeds all expectations.
When one concentrates on that which does not serve, there are blockages which need to be removed. They hinder and restrain, from that place where the Soul wishes to journey.
LETTING GO … LETTING FLOW … ALLOWING … BEING … will assist you in travelling so far without even trying.
Do you see? Let go of ‘Trying.’
‘Trying’ to be Enlightened.
‘Trying’ to serve others.
‘Trying’ to serve yourself …
‘Trying’ to do all sorts of things that you feel you SHOULD be doing, in order to make this world a better place.
LET GO OF THE TRYING!
When you do so … when you KNOW you do not need to TRY … you allow THE FLOW to take its natural course.
I know from Abraham (Esther Hicks) that one should always allow their boat to float downstream. I used to do a visual when things felt out of line, and I would see myself in my canoe, paddling like mad UP stream. Then I would visualise turning it around, lifting my paddle out of the water, and going with THE FLOW. When coming up against obstacles, I would watch myself get out and remove the rock or find another way around. It was a good tool, I had forgotten about.
Indeed, Blossom. Many times have we given expression to Visualisation being your most Powerful tool.
I know White Cloud has always said that from the start!
You have been given so many tools to assist you during these times. Use your imagination to get you out of ‘lower Vibrational’ thoughts. Each one of you has this gift within to pull you out of the lower frequencies. All you need do, is close your eyes and visualise.
Mm, could be a song in there somewhere, if not … a T Shirt would do! … ‘Close your eyes and visualise! I Like it!
Blossom … Do not limit the thoughts that can take you to other places. Places that will uplift and put your Heart back in its rightful place of Love.
Take your thoughts outside of that box that you have placed your capabilities within. Think of a treasure chest … think of a wrapped gift …
In your meditations … unlock the chest … unwrap the gift …
See yourself inside an Ice cube and with a pickaxe break the ice away. Then you realise that is too much like hard work. So, sit within the ice cube and call in the Sun Source. How easy it is for the Sun to melt the ice away?
This is what we mean by going with THE FLOW. Find the easy way through your days …
And you do this by … NOT TRYING.
Yet, when we are in a low vibe … we need to TRY and get ourselves out of it, otherwise we sink further into the lower feel of things.
Yet, if you simply become aware of how you are feeling it does not take great effort to … breathe, close your eyes, and change the pace and the place of your mindset.
Do you need to ‘try’ and do this?
Yes.
No. For to do so requires no real effort.
TO DO SO IS CHANGING THE ‘TRYING’ TO ‘ENJOYMENT.’
Your training in this field is complete, Dearest Souls.
Do not hold yourselves back.
KNOW! KNOW! KNOW … WHO YOU ARE.
YOU ARE LIGHT-LOVE.
AND TRUTH WITHIN YOU, AS YOU CONTINUE TO ACCEPT AND ALLOW YOURSELVES TO BE LIGHT-LOVE, ENABLES YOUR POWER TO PROVE TO YOU THAT THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE.
WITHOUT EVEN TRYING.
YOU ARE LIGHT-LOVE.
YOU EXUDE LIGHT-LOVE … if you only would allow yourself to do so …
WITHOUT EVEN TRYING!
Many of you are of a Vibration now, that allows LOVE-LIGHT TO FLOW from your Being
WITHOUT EVEN TRYING.
LET IT BE.
LET IT HAPPEN.
LET IT FLOW.
Let LIGHT LOVE FLOW through your Beings … Out, out, out … to where it is destined to arrive.
You do not need to know where you are sending that Light-Love to, necessarily … unless it is desired to be directed to a particular Soul or situation.
You just allow THE FLOW of this stream to find its own way.
LOVE-LIGHT KNOWS AT ALL TIMES WHAT IT IS DOING AND WHERE IT NEEDS TO GO.
I notice you say Light-Love and then switch to Love-Light. Is there a reason for this, as folk often inquire as to whether The Mantra should be said with I AM THE LIGHT first, or, I AM THE LOVE. You say it matters not.
This is correct, for they are One and the same.
The coding within the two are of the same Vibration. Would we put it as simply as the fact, that when both are used together, they amplify to create a Higher Vibrational code, rather like multiplication.
Ok. Thanks for clearing that up.
One should allow whichever word flows forth first at any given time, to BE.
I feel Blessed to have reached a place within me and I know many others have too … whereby sending Love from my Heart, wherever I may be, whatever I am doing … is just so automatic these days. So, you are saying, we don’t even need to think about it in order for it to happen? My Heart is just doing it all by itself?
This is correct … That KNOWING OF FLOWING.
Another song … another T shirt!
That KNOWING OF FLOWING allows so much more than you realise to reach out and touch that which needs your Love the most.
Could you explain the ‘so much more’?
Have a go at answering this for yourself, Blossom, if you wouldn’t mind.
Well, I am assuming that as it is LOVE that is Flowing, it is uplifting all that is life.
What else?
Dispersing negative Energy.
What else?
Now I am having to ‘try’ and think.
Then let go of ‘trying’ and allow the next thought to FLOW.
CHANGING THE VIBRATION OF THE ENTIRE PLANET.
And you came up with the jackpot by putting aside the ‘trying’ to think, and simply GOING WITH THE KNOWING OF THE FLOWING.
Oh! funny funny! Now we’re rapping!
Can you see, Blossom? How it is … not just for you, yet, for Each and Everyone. Are you cottoning on to the point we have just made?
Yes. Yet, it sounds better coming from you.
Yet, that IS the point! You were able to answer the questions that you were asking US to answer.
Why would it be better coming from US?
I want to reply … because you are the wiser ones. Yet, I already know you are going to correct me on that.
Indeed, we are.
BECAUSE …
YOU, DEAREST BLOSSOM, DEAREST SOULS … YOU KNOW IT ALL.
You, at this time Blossom, are tuned into our Vibration. We are chatting on the same wavelength.
The Vibration that we reside within, is one that YOU … Each One, are able to tap into at anytime to receive the KNOWING that you require.
Yet, we cannot get all the answers.
This depends, Blossom , on what questions you are asking.
There are a lot of questions that those of you residing on the Earth plane at this time desire to know. Yet, it is not in keeping with the Divine Plan to know certain things from the position that you are in, IN THIS MOMENT OF TIME.
As we have said before … If you were to know certain things … If you were to become aware of certain things before the planned timing … you would change the course simply by KNOWING things too soon.
This would create change that would disrupt THE FLOW.
May we simply simplify all the unanswered questions that you long to know … by saying once again
LET GO AND LET FLOW …
ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW … TO BE AWARE OF … IS THAT BY BEING LOVE … BY BEING LIGHT … YOU ARE DOING EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE MEANT TO BE DOING.
ENJOY EACH AND EVERY MOMENT OF THAT UNDERSTANDING.
That which is necessary for you to become aware of will be given to you in the Divine timing of the Divine plan … Each answer is within … and like the bud of the Rose … it shall ‘Blossom’ when it is designed to do so.
Made me think of the song by Eric Clapton … Let it grow, let it grow … let it Blossom let it flow!
And that thought involved no trying whatsoever.
Thanks Guys … Food for thought … in Gratitude. In Loving service. I AM.

Surrendering into the Flow
Surrendering into the Flow
By Steve Beckow
Posted on December 2, 2023
I need to take a day off and just relax, recharge my batteries, reflect.
The most relaxing thing I do these days is paint bottles in glittering gold and entrancing purples. (1)
It’s so experiential, so non-intellectual, to brush on paint, smooth it about, mind the edges.
It’s also bringing back memories of a child in kindergarten, becoming entranced with finger painting. Swishing it on and squiggling it around.
It wasn’t until I was swishing paint on a large bottle in current time that I felt again that same sensation.
Remember Richard Dreyfus in Close Encounters? Molding the mashed potatoes to look like Devil’s Tower?

This means something.
Fingerpainting and this painting I’m doing now are like that: This means something.
Painting is teaching me relaxation, enjoyment, but, most of all, flow. In my experience, flow is a paradigm of the higher realms.
This was the same flow I later discovered in the 2015 heart opening. (1) My heart having explosively opened, I was immediately immersed in a tsunami of love. Ever since then, though not to the same degree, love will flow if I raise it with my inbreath.
The love I encountered must flow, as Michael affirms here: “Love is a fluid energy. It has need to flow.” (2)
It seems to me that discovering flow and beginning to flow with it is and was the purpose of activities like painting in kindergarten and painting now.

But why bottles? It goes back to my first job after my second Ph.D. program in History. It’s a funny story. I’ll try not to be too self-serving.
I won a one-year contract replacing a historian on sabbatical in the History Division of the National Museum of Man (now the Canadian Museum of Civilization).
I wondered why we collected artifacts that were three hundred years old and not new artifacts from today. I asked if I could start a demonstration project collecting contemporary artifacts to build a picture of Canadian society in 1973-4. I was given permission as long as it didn’t cost anything.
I and those who worked on the project with me tried to capture our social values as they were represented in consumer products in that year. The project drew national media attention.
Any artifact to go into the collection had to say something about the world we lived in. For example: A picture of a family on a box of soap might show a man in a white shirt and tie, taller than a woman,who was shown in an apron, and a boy or girl in toned-down adult wear. That was how this advertiser wanted us to see his 1973 customers – “average, normal, happy” … and conformist.
I had a network of collectors, across the country, opening their cans, boxes, and cartons from the bottom (so that they were undamaged and appeared new) and sending what they found to me. It was a hoot!
As a result of this, the museum now has an artifactual record of that year that I think will remain unsurpassed. Of course I’m biased.
By the end of my year’s contract, it was the largest collection of artifacts in the museum. The director of museums was wild about it. But my division chief, down the line, was not amused, and so my contract was not renewed.
Damn. I should have laid low. That was a great job!
Afterwards, for the first time in my life, I learned that one can go up an employment ladder easily enough, but one cannot go down as easily. The National Museum of Man was Canada’s premier historical museum.
After unsuccessful contacts among the museum community, my hunch grew that historians at provincial and municipal museums did not want someone from the National Museum in their midst and on their boards. (3) (This might be a projection.)
***
Nevertheless, during that year, I travelled up and down the Ottawa Valley, which is beautiful in autumn. I had a budget for old artifacts; just not for new. It was a heavenly job. I’m laughing at the moment remembering some of my finds. Particularly the carton of Whipper Billy Watson soda pop from the 1930s.
As I look at the shelves of bottles painted in flat and glossy, glitter glue and sparkling stars, all the colors and shapes and combinations take me back and mesmerize me.
One moment I’m back in the museum looking at all the colorful artifacts. The next moment I’m back in kindergarten, being introduced to flow. Speak of everything I needed to learn I learned in kindergarten!
The bottles are just a vehicle to experience the flow of painting. More and more each day, as I paint and even when I don’t, I surrender into the flow.
Footnotes
(1) Archangel Michael in a personal reading with Steve Beckow through Linda Dillon, April 30, 2019.
On both occasions – kindergarten and now – I came in touch through painting with an incipient need and desire to flow.
(2) In which love flowed like a tsunami. See:
- “Submerged in Love,” March 14, 2015, in An Ascension Ethnography at https://goldenageofgaia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/An-Ascension-Ethnography-5.pdf, and after.
- “Activating the Wellspring – Part 1/2,” March 14, 2015, at https://goldenageofgaia.com/2015/03/14/activating-the-wellspring-part-1-2/.
(3) This happened a second time after leaving the Immigration and Refugee Board. The IRB was at the time Canada’s premier tribunal (in the tribunal community). In employment terms, there was nowhere to go but “down.” But people in smaller provincial and municipal tribunals didn’t want an IRB member on their boards. Only a very small number of IRB members I knew found work again in the field.
