How can We Contribute to Change without Chaos?

How can We Contribute to Change without Chaos?

By Steve Beckow

Posted on February 4, 2025



I’d like to repost this article from Jan. 10, 2020 for its relevance to our current situation.


If we’re learning to use the collective consciousness, then we have to know how to contribute to change without chaos.

Let’s see what the Company of Heaven has to say about that.

Let’s start with Hilarion, who addresses the matter squarely. He says that no matter how much change there is in the external world, our essence – the Self – does not change.

Remaining as that – by remaining balanced and grounded – will stabilize the situation and thus contribute to keeping change from becoming chaos, he says.

“Yes, change is upon you, change is upon all humankind and the Earth. Everywhere you look there is change, but within you that which you have worked towards in your mastery of life to this point is still there. The core essence of your being is always there. It unfolds and expands, if you allow it.

“Therefore, that is a part of you that never changes and this is a part of you that, when taken into collective consciousness, helps to maintain the stability of the energies during these times.” (1)

So by abiding as our essential Self, we lightworkers help to maintain the stability of the energies around us. Our centeredness, groundedness, and balance help to keep things stable.

“All is unfolding, changing and renewing. It does not necessarily mean that it is not the highest outcome. It means simply that it is time to ride with it. You have the tools, you have the experience, you have the knowing – just remember this.” (2)

He’s advising us to “ride with it,” to flow with change. He says that at some level we know this.

Flow is one of the paradigms of the higher dimensions. It’s only us on the Third and Fourth Dimensions, who are encased in dense physical bodies, who do not flow.

He advises us to endure through the times when our efforts are demeaned because we who have chosen peace are having an effect on the collective consciousness.

“That which you think about, act upon and speak is affecting the collective consciousness so those who choose peace, those who choose to follow their own authentic self – do not become swayed by those who would try to demean you because you do not have the same perspective on what is occurring upon your planet at this time. …

“Soon there will be a new perspective, a greater and deeper comprehension and understanding of all that is occurring during these times.” (3)

Earlier, we listened to Matthew Ward explain how the collective consciousness and energy field of potential work. (4) The Hathors tell us that such an understanding will lead to oneness.

“When humanity comes to understand the energy at work sustaining your reality and the fact that your very spiritual essence is comprised of such energy, the oneness of your collective consciousness will be understood and the fact that you’re all interlinked and can feel each other’s energy and emotion will be understood as well.” (5)

It seems that the understanding of oneness will greatly contribute to change without chaos.

To summarize, remaining balanced is one way lightworkers can contribute to change without chaos. Flowing with things is another. Understanding our oneness is a third.

A time will soon arrive when the old paradigms will not suffice and new paradigms will arise.  We’re asked to persevere till then.

It’s suggested that we understand how the collective consciousness and the energy field of potential work. We’ll then know how our peacefulness and balance are having an impact on others; especially in our locale.

We’re asked to see how all are energetically connected. It’s said that that will lead to the realization of oneness.  In my view, our lightworker contribution of unity in the Light would perhaps be the best contribution we can make to having change without chaos.

Self Love

Self Love

Love Notes

Brynne E. Dippell, Ph.D.

Posted July 9, 2024



As you love yourself, you love the All.

As you appreciate the Divine Light that you are, you appreciate the Divine Light in every heart.

This is why it is essential to turn your gaze from those before you to this lovely One right here.

We say, this is an inspired and gently revolutionary act.

When Ones join together in appreciation of the Self, the entire world is lifted up.

Take this moment now, think of One you love, and offer this energy to your own heart.

Feel the soft expansion, feel the quiet radiance, as this overflows from your heart to your chest and out.

Then let a living stream of this love move through your body and down and into Mother Earth.

Let her be nourished, let her add her own, and let it circle back around and all the way up to the heavens. Scoop up stardust, mix it in, and bring some down to rest in your heart.

Create this infinite loop three times, and your entire body is cleansed, uplifted.

All your bodies: the Earth, the Sky, and You.

Then rest sweetly in your heart.

Self. Love.

The one thing that changes everything. :)

Much love!

Do All the Divine Qualities Reside in the Heart?

Do All the Divine Qualities Reside in the Heart?

by Steve Beckow

Posted on February 6, 2024



As a result of writing a previous article, I saw that I was creating my joy in a moment of realization.

I wondered if I couldn’t create happiness as well.

So I called up happiness from my heart on the inbreath and sent it out to the world on my outbreath. And, yes, I could bring up happiness as well.

Again, if you’re on the awareness path, that’s another significant discovery.  That makes the statement that “happiness is my creation” very much more significant.

Yes, I create it by calling it forth from my heart, where all the divine states of qualities seem to reside, if they can be said to reside anywhere.

***

At another point today, I had the first inkling of knowing how to create or up-level a feeling state I’m in.

I saw how, though I was not master of what thoughts arose, I was master of whether I’d get behind any one thought. I still had the power of choice.

I already knew that I could summon many if not all of the divine states up from my heart on my in-breath. Not in their full-blown majesty, but enough to have me supremely appreciate each of them – happiness, peace, joy, etc.

I feel more in control of myself now, more the master of how I be. And I don’t mean that in an overbearing way. It actually feels like the righting of a natural balance.

The Adult, the Commander, my Higher Self – Big Steve – feels like the natural candidate for leader of this merry band that “I” am. When he leads, it feels right. Little Steve, my wounded Child is not fighting it any longer, begging for attention. He too thinks it feels right. We’re unanimous.

Interesting. All very interesting.

Life as a learning experience.

Retrieving Wholeness

Retrieving Wholeness

The Energies of February 2024

By Natalia Alba

Posted on February 2, 2024


Beloved Ones,

During February, we continue to be immersed in the Aquarian portal that started when the sun and Pluto moved into Aquarius, and that will continue with the 2/2 portal, and the many planets moving into this Air sign, together with a New Moon, on the 9th.

This is going to be a new energetic month, from a cosmic perspective, for us to dive deep into our connection to the whole, for this is where we are heading, into a more unified space.

February holds the essence of number 1. This, especially in opposition to the 2/2 portal, gives us the key to work with the energies of this month, which greatly emphasizes where many are at this time, moving from the self, the individual, the ego,  the distorted masculine archetype, to the female one, the whole, and the community, for the universal Mother embraces us All, equally.

Number 1, individually, can manifest in the form of egoic traits, such as excess of power, arrogance, control, manipulation, stubbornness, etc., and that can help us see where we are, without judgments, just from an observer perspective, to be able to witness what needs to be shifted, so we can move into a more loving, and unified perspective.

Negative egoic traits can be also neutralized with determination, leadership, self-reliance, and many other positive traits that this number represents. This is an opportunity to work on inner alchemy, mastering the ego self, before we can embrace All as One, for this is a gradual step for those who are yet trapped within the ego’s limited view. This is a process that must be respected as a very important part of our ascension journey that helps us step into further ascension stages.

Number 1 also represents the new, what we are creating from the inside, after a period of discernment and deep soul communion. New beginnings that will determine the course of the next months of the year, for the process of seeding starts now and it is important to start from within, which is why we had a meditative period before we can embark on a new phase.

A month in which Guides invite us to work on freedom, to be able to disengage from old programs, through mental and emotional clearing, required for us to keep an open mind/ heart, and integrity to be able to act as we now think and feel.

A new phase in which we are invited to continue working with clearing our ego, so we can move from the self to All, as the Aquarian portal will remind us during the entire month, in an attempt to mimic the new timeline’s essence that we are heading into, for where we are heading is not about ourselves anymore, but about the whole as a community.

We have a wonderful opportunity, during this month to work on disengaging ourselves from egoic programs that serve the self, and start seeing everyone within Divine love, even though others have chosen to evolve, in a totally different way than we had, for all is valid to grow and expand, as in the end, we All will reunify with God’s Source.

Solar/Platinum Plasma waves: Female and masculine pillar rehabilitation

During February the solar plasma waves received, from our central sun and from the Pleiadian star system, are going to continue assisting in the planetary rehabilitation of the feminine and masculine pillars or templates, for as you know our planet is now for the first time being restored of the many reversals and manipulations exerted for eons.

The reintegration of both masculine and female essences in our planet, and within ourselves, is what the 2/2 Aquarian portal is too confirming this year, as the energies are totally different from past years since we are now prepared to finally take the step to polarity integration. Many are actually undergoing this process of sixth and seventh-dimensional shoulder portals opening, as I can daily confirm in my personal co-creations with others.

These galactic plasma waves can be seen, for those who co-create with them and are clairvoyant as etheric electric platinum and gold liquid plasma, for those energies who hold the masculine and female codes necessary to help us restore both of our essences.

This is an important step for both our personal ascension journey and our planetary transition. It facilitates healing to those who are now working on rehabilitating their masculine and female template, specifically clearing the ego, and erasing lunar-moon distortions, and sexual traumas, as it is a very propitious time.

It is precisely by healing ourselves and consciously embodying these energies that we can start working with our light body, and DNA, for we can only activate our DNA by integrating the plasma waves that are descending into our planet, and that will result in the light body and crystal body activation required for us to move into the monad.

The solar waves will help us also in self-synthesis for those who are on a path to reunification with their monad. These energies will assist us greatly during this time of rebirth and new beginnings, for it is from the feminine cosmic wound, within ourselves that we give life to a new aspect of us, and to what we wish to bring into fruition, into our reality.

We have too Venusian together with Pleiadian energies assisting us in the process of female reclamation that is taking place in many who have consciously chosen this path and in the restoration of the earth’s structures that were distorted to impede the female planetary restoration, as well as the healing of the distorted masculine.

Astrological events

From a planetary perspective, we start February by having Mercury, on the 5th of the month moving into Aquarius. This is a soothing frequency for us to work on bringing mental releasement and liberation into our mental bodies, which is in perfect resonance with the Aquarian energies that too surrounded us since the end of January. This is going to help us immensely if we are working to free ourselves from human illusions, old beliefs, and anything we are trying to let go of.

This essence brings mental flexibility, for us to flow and be open to new truths, for there is always, a higher truth, as we continue to evolve, a new level of it that we are now ready to appreciate and embody. Indeed a very important energy that if used wisely, could help us work on self-sovereignty at all levels, as this is where humanity is heading, into a space of ownership of their own selves and lives.

On the next day, we have Saturn quintile Uranus. This is a very harmonic aspect that will help us to regain clarity, within our inner transformational and healing process. An essence that for those who are ready will help them show who they are, their uniqueness, personal gifts, and above all, the determination and commitment to be who they are, and to seed their special talents into the world.

A few days later, on February  9th, we have the culmination of this Aquarian portal, with a New Moon at 20 degrees Aquarius. This is the end of the old, and the beginning of a new Era, that will gradually come to fruition. It is a passage that will invite us to question our beliefs,  as it is influenced by Uranus, who we are becoming, and where we are going, remembering that it is by shifting what does not resonate that we liberate ourselves, and start anew.

This passage also reminds us of the importance of acting within Divine love and integrity, as within our new harmonic timeline, we no longer do what benefits us but the whole, for we now remember our connection to All living beings and forms of consciousness.

To continue navigating this Aquarian portal, and before we move to Piscean energies, we too have on February 13th Mars entering into Aquarius, and on the 16th Venus doing the same. Mars, the Power, the Warrior within us in Aquarius invites us to utilize all of our personal power, strength, and energy, in building our new lives, by thinking as well in how we could assist the whole, in helping others in their path too, as ultimately everything is energy, and the result depends on how we decide to channel it.

Mars in Aquarius is also a significant reminder for us to remember that our actions, all that we are choosing to create or do, need to reflect our new state of consciousness, which is now a more unified one, focusing on putting our energy and intention on humanitarianism, selfless assistance, community and everything that involves healing and helping the whole. It is indeed a time to create healing, solutions, and everything that results in innovating and bringing more love to All.

On February 18th the Sun enters Pisces. We now pass to the invisible realms of Pisces, where we illumined ourselves, regained higher wisdom, and began to walk towards the depths of our being. A time of miracles, which is nothing but the conscious alignment with our God Self, and a time for us to leave an old cycle, of false beliefs, and disempowerment, behind, beginning to walk toward the Light of who we truly are.

One of the lessons that Pisces offers us is the ultimate transcendence of all the old mental programming and beliefs that we used to hold within, as Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and therefore the one who has already discovered all the aspects of himself, integrating all the challenges/lessons required to embody a higher level of awareness that will make Him see the Truth, instead of the old illusion in which He was immersed.

This is a process that Aquarius too is helping us achieve, the mental liberation of all of our previous baggage, so we can start seeing our new self, and path, clearer.

Now that we have seen what is beyond our human senses and crossed the illusory veils, we are ready to embrace a new way of living based on authenticity, integrity, and compassion, attributes that can only be mastered in the physical.

On the next day, we have an important planetary event, the True Node conjunct Chiron. This will be significantly important for those who are guided to initiate themselves as healers or expand into their healing techniques. This event is an invitation to those who came here with a mission of restoration to start digging within themselves, bringing their healing abilities to the surface, learning their unique ways to heal and help others, so they can too put themselves in service to All, in their own special way.

On February 23rd, we also have Mercury entering into Pisces, which is indeed a perfect frequency for those who are working on awakening/expanding their higher senses – retrieving wisdom whether by working on their soul’s gifts activation or simply by the unique way they have chosen to put their gifts out there.

Mercury in Pisces takes communication further than just in our earthly plane, and it is a good time for us to commune, in this Piscean season, with the non-physical aspects of ourselves, for even though those we consider our Guides, are often future/parallel selves of us, communicating with us telepathically or even physically, if it is meant to be. Everything and everyone is an aspect of us and it all depends on our awareness to be open and co-create with them.

We end the month with a very loving and similar essence to that of Pisces, as we have on February 24th, a Full Moon at 5 degrees of Virgo. Virgo, as well as Pisces, although with a more grounding essence, also invites us to be of service, and make everything more pure, which is what this moon invites us to do, focusing on self-purification, for when we do so, we are too bringing more integrity and purity to All.

February is a month to thrive and continue the seeding that we just started, by first recognizing that we can only do so when we embrace and unify our opposite polarities, and everything that is an extension of us.

It is this same synthesis the one that we are seeding into the world, making everything more loving, harmonic, and above all, whole,  for we are now finally feeling the interconnectivity with everyone who walks on this path with us.

I wish you a blessed February, Beloved Ones.

May you always be conscious of all the love that walks with you.

Within Infinite Love,

Other Voices on Where the Self “Lives”

Other Voices on Where the Self “Lives”

By Steve Beckow

Posted on November 9, 2023


The Self lives in the deepest reaches of the heart, the Seat of the Soul. Credit: Ute Possega Rudel


Three days till 11/11.

When, at Xenia Retreat Center in Sept. 2018, I ventured in meditation into the very bottom of my heart, the depths of my heart, called the Seat of the Soul, I there found the Light of the Self.  (1)

But, after the experience, I was filled with doubts. The soul doesn’t “live” in the heart; it fills the whole of creation.  Who else can be found to support that statement? And then I promptly forgot about the matter.

But today I came across a section in From Darkness Unto Light, which features a large group of enlightened masters saying exactly that: That the Self, the soul, the spirit lives in and is to be sought and found in the heart. (2)

I feel buoyed up having found such a range of evidence in support of what sounded to me like a statement in need of corroboration. Here is that evidence:


Within the city of Brahman, which is the body, there is the heart, (1) and within the heart there is a little house. This house has the shape of a lotus, and within it dwells that which is to be sought after, inquired about, and realized. (Swami Prabhavananda and Frederick Manchester, trans., The Upanishads. Breath of the Eternal. New York and Scarborough: New American Library, 1957; c194, 74.) (Hereafter, UPAN.)

(1) Not the Heart Chakra, but the heart behind the hridayam or heart aperture.

The ancient, effulgent being, in-dwelling Spirit, (1) [is] deep-hidden in the lotus of the heart. (UPAN, 17.)

(1) The Self, the soul.

Smaller than the smallest, greater than the greatest, this Self forever dwells within the hearts of all. (UPAN, 18.)

Both the individual self and the Universal Self have entered the cave of the heart, the abode of the Most High. (UPAN, 19.)

He who … sees [the Atman] inhabiting the lotus of the heart, living among physical elements, sees Brahman indeed. For this First-Born is the immortal Self. (UPAN, 21.)

The Supreme Person, … the Innermost Self, dwells forever in the heart of all beings. (UPAN, 24.)

The Self exists in man, within the lotus of the heart, and is the master of his life and of his body. (UPAN, 46.)

Within the lotus of the heart (1) he dwells, where, like the spokes of a wheel in its hub, the nerves meet. Meditate on him as OM. Easily mayest thou cross the ocean of darkness. (UPAN, 46.)

(1) Not the heart chakra, which is shaped like a lotus, but the Hridayam, or heart aperture, which closes like a closed lotus.

I am the Lord in the midst of the earth. (1) (Exodus 8:22.)

(1) “In the midst of the earth” = I.e., in the center of the body; that is, in the Heart.

The devoted … know Him always There in the heart, Where action is not. (Sri Krishna in Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood, trans., Bhagavad-Gita. The Song of God. New York and Scarborough: New American Library, 1972; c1944, 59.) (Hereafter BG.)

There in the ignorant heart … I dwell. (Sri Krishna in BG, 87.)

The fire (1) shall ever be burning upon the altar; (2) it shall never go out. (Leviticus 6:13.)

(1) The Father or Self. (2) The Heart.

The Lord is in his holy temple: (1) let all the earth keep silence before him. (2) (Habakkuk 2:20.)

(1) The body; more specifically, the Heart.
(2) Silently meditate on Him.

Oh, Lord, dweller within; You are the light in the heart’s lotus. (Shankara in Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher lsherwood, Shankara’s Crest-Jewel of Discrimination. Hollywood: Vedanta Press, 1975; c1947, i.) (Hereafter CJD.)

Here, within this body, in the pure mind, in the secret chamber of intelligence, in the infinite universe within the heart, the Atman (1) shines in its captivating splendour, like a noonday sun. (Shankara in CJD, 53.)

(1) The Self.

The Atman, which is pure consciousness, is the light that shines in the shrine of the heart, the center of all vital force. (Shankara in CJD, 63.)

The Atman is … the real I, hidden in the shrine of the heart. (Shankara in CJD, 69.)

The first step to self-knowledge is to know that thou art composed of an outward shape, called the body, and an inward entity called the heart, or soul. (1) By “heart” I do not mean the piece of flesh situated in the left of our bodies, but that which uses all the other faculties as its instruments and servants. In truth it does not belong to the visible world, but to the invisible, and has come into this world as a traveller visits a foreign country for the sake of merchandise, and will presently return to its native land. It is the knowledge of this entity and its attributes which is the key to the knowledge of God. (Al-Ghazzali, The Alchemy of Happiness. trans. Claud Field. Lahore: ASHRAF, 1971; c1964, 21.)

(1) Al-Ghazzali here equates the hridayam or heart with the Self.

There is something nearer to us than Scriptures, to wit, the Lord in the heart to which all Scriptures come. (William Penn in Aldous Huxley, The Perennial Philosophy. New York, etc.: Harper and Row, 1970; c1944, 14.)

God, the true Philosopher’s Stone,
Who answers every prayer,
Lies hidden deep within your heart,
The richest gem of all.
(Paramahansa Ramakrishna in Swami Nikhilananda, trans., The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna. New York: Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center, 1978; c1942, 235.) (Hereafter, GSR.)

The heart of the devotee is the abode of God. He dwells, no doubt, in all beings, but He especially manifests Himself in the heart of the devotee. A landlord may at one time or another visit all parts of his estate, but people say he is generally to be found in a particular drawing-room. The heart of the devotee is the drawing-room of God. (Paramahansa Ramakrishna in GSR, 133.)

THE RIVER OF AWARENESS

THE RIVER OF AWARENESS

The Federation of Light 

Through Blossom Goodchild

Posted on July 23, 2023


Via Lactea



Black = Federation of Light 
Gray = Blossom Goodchild


What Ho, Chaps! In last week’s chat, you used the words ‘River of Awareness’ … as it came through, I recognized my Love for it. Someone else wrote to me saying the same. I am sure there were many more. Can we talk about THE RIVER OF AWARENESS today, please?

Welcome, Dearest Blossom, and to each and every individual that joins together in Love as we Unite through these communications. Furthering the expression of Pure Love across the Planet. We would very much enjoy speaking of this flow.

So, within YOU, The Self … The I AM of YOU … is the recognition that there is nothing that cannot be achieved or accomplished when you KNOW this as a Truth.

Within YOU are Masters of knowledge that have become YOU over lifetimes of experiences.

Within YOU are Seers of future days that will become you as more experiences emerge.

YOU ARE THE RIVER OF AWARENESS.

IT IS YOU.

It is not outside of you. It is not an Awareness that needs to be analyzed or delved into.

It is not a flow of Source that is outside of you …

FOR SOURCE IS YOU … WITHIN YOU.

When you say  ‘is you/ within you’ … it feels like they are two separate things.

No. For YOU ARE SOURCE … YOU FLOW FROM IT.

SOURCE IS WITHIN YOU … BECAUSE YOU ARE OF SOURCE.

To be Aware of this flow … an appliance of Trusting that ALL YOU KNOW YOURSELF TO BE … is actually ALL there is.

It allows a Truth to guide you in the perfect direction your Soul requires, to become even more of who it desires to BE.

Do we not all, deep down, want to be Happy, in Joy, etc?

Indeed, Blossom. Yet, to FEEL such … can be found in many derivative formats.

I looked up ‘derivative formats’ to check its full meaning. Best I just Trust you know what you are talking about!

Ultimately, that which one seeks is contentment … satisfaction … so that the searching ceases.

For when one has these … there is nothing more to attain.

Yet, there are very few that have found contentment and satisfaction in the sense of searching no more. For, is it not that once found … that is not enough? After a while … one feels the need to search for more of the same. For that level they had found becomes the norm.

When one has stopped searching … the need to not do so … loses that which it was looking for … because it found it … settled within it … and then felt discontent with it … because one’s Being cannot stay still.

Therefore, it is of great importance to ‘flow down’ … ‘flow with’ the River of Awareness.

TO BE AWARE THAT YOU ARE FLOWING THROUGH/WITHIN A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT CAN NEVER STOP.

Indeed, one may come across rocks and boulders … across obstacles that block and prevent one from moving on.

Yet, with Patience and Understanding … there will always be a way around them. A way to resume flow.

Something may come up from behind and take you by surprise, which jolts you from the rocks, and in doing so … shifts you into a different flow, a different stream yet, still within the same River.

For some reason, I want to ask you to explain your version of Awareness. Obviously, in my mind, I know what it means, yet, this that you speak of feels to have deeper content.

You are very much on point, Blossom. The question was one we were asking you to ask!

I am aware of that awareness!

You see, Blossom, one … must /has to… Understand the rhythm of Life’s back and forths, ups and downs. This means to be Aware of them.

So, does understanding mean awareness?

Yes. So, if we were to say ‘The River of Understanding’ … what would you say?

I would, for conversation’s sake, say ‘Understanding what?’

To which we would reply … Understanding Awareness.

And we’re off! Didn’t you say understanding and awareness are the same thing?

We did. So, we could say … that if you are Aware of Understanding, you can also Understand Awareness.

As I sometimes say to you ‘Could we try that in Swahili’?

Blossom, Dearest Blossom …

THIS RIVER IS THE ALL OF EVERYTHING …

AND EACH ONE.

EVERYTHING … IS A DROP IN THE WATER THAT FLOWS WITHIN THAT RIVER.

EACH INDIVIDUAL DROP MAKES UP THE EVERYTHING.

Are you Aware of that? Do you Understand that?

Yep.

There would be no flowing stream if there were no drops of water to allow it to BE.

Every drop is having its own experience, yet, it could not flow if it were not for every other drop.

Does that make sense?

Yes.

So, would you say you Understand this?

Yes.

Were you Aware of this before you Understood it? Or, did you have to Understand it before you were able to be Aware of it?

Oh Lord! Pass the pills, Poppy! Erm … my answer has to be ‘Neither’. I understood it, therefore, I was aware of it.

Where does that Understanding come from?

I have to say … ‘The flow of the river.’ The more I go with the flow the more I understand … and the more aware I become.

Of what?

Who I AM.

And who are you?

The flow of the river. I promise I didn’t take any psychedelic drugs before this session! I might need to take some after!!!

So, YOU ARE AWARE YOU ARE THE FLOW OF THE RIVER … ever present … ever bubbling …

Hold on, the river gets stagnant now and then, does it not?

If one allows it to. If one’s Understanding is that the river is just the ‘you’ … as the one drop … the individual … then indeed, one can prevent the flow, because that is the belief … that they are not part of The Whole … the entire river.

So, is it that their Awareness … their Understanding … is the whole river … when in actual fact … it is just a part of it? (I am leaving this last sentence in, even though I couldn’t make head nor tail of it when I read it back after the channelling. Believe me, I tried. Yet, I knew what I was talking about at the time …  I think!)

Correct. For you see, Blossom … When there is Full Understanding … Full Awareness that there is no separation … THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE FLOW.

Yet, a choice can change all that. A choice of not flowing with that Awareness.

It can only change for the individual who is making that choice.

Does that choice affect the flow of the River as a Whole?

Yes. Yet, not enough to build a dam.

THE TRUE LIGHT FORCE OF THIS FLOW IS BEYOND DISTURBANCES THAT COULD DO THIS.

Our point is this, Dearest Blossom, Dearest Souls … You … Each One … are a drop in this water.

We feel sure that all can resonate with this analogy.

WHEN … NOT IF … WHEN … YOU ALLOW YOURSELF TO TRUST THIS FLOW OF DIVINE CONSCIOUSNESS THAT YOU ARE WITHIN … THAT YOU ARE PART OF … IN THE KNOWING IT KNOWS WHERE IT IS GOING … WHERE IT IS HEADING … THEN ALL THAT MAKES UP YOUR LIFE’S EXPERIENCE WILL LEAD YOU TO JOY … LOVE … ETC.

ALL THAT ONE IS SEARCHING FOR … IS WITHIN THAT RIVER.

THE FLOW OF IT IS TAKING YOU THERE.

WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THIS … WHEN YOU BECOME AWARE OF THIS …

YOU BECOME AWARE AND UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING THAT UNDERSTANDING WANTS YOU TO BE AWARE OF …

AND EVERYTHING AWARENESS WANTS YOU TO UNDERSTAND!

If I drank, I think I would have a Gin and tonic! So, until I understand this, I cannot be aware of it … and vice versa. What would you say is the best way to grasp this understanding … this awareness?

TO KNOW … not Hope … not believe … not desire … yet …

TO KNOW THAT THIS RIVER IS LOVE.

When you let Love flow … through you /as you/ of you  … there is no need for questions and answers.

There is no need for anything, other than to go with this flow …

To feel yourself ‘running with it.’

To allow it … in absolute full TRUST … to take you to the exact place that you need to be.

YOU … AS THAT ONE DROP OF WATER … BEING ALIVE AND THRIVING … AS IT CARRIES YOU FORTH … IN A /TO A … HIGHER UNDERSTANDING … A HIGHER AWARENESS OF WHO YOU ARE!

And is it not that the most sparkling bubbles in that flow … the ones that catch the Light … are the ones who are of sincere Gratitude for BEING THERE?

GRATITUDE FOR EVERY DROP THAT SURROUNDS THEM ON THE JOURNEY … FOR EVERY OBSTACLE … FOR EVERY RAY OF SUNLIGHT … FOR THE VERY TRUTH OF THE WONDER AND THE HONOUR OF BEING.

Dearest Souls …YOU ARE TRUTH.

We try to assist you in the Understanding … to become Aware of …  this TRUTH.

YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN YOU KNOW YOURSELF TO BE.

Yes. You have heard this many times … from many different ‘streams’ …

BECAUSE IT IS TRUTH.

When one drops the shackles … when one walks into FREEDOM OF THE HEART and allows the conditioning to fall away …

THEN YOU WILL KNOW …

YOU WILL EXPERIENCE …

THE MAGIC … THE MIRACLES … THE TRUTH OF THE MANTRA …

I AM THE LIGHT.

I AM THE LOVE.

I AM THE TRUTH.

I AM.

Thank you. I Am Aware that I may not fully Understand my Awareness of this Understanding. In Gratitude. In Loving Service. I AM.
