Listening to Kids These Days

On service, taking sides, and the call to be holy . . .

SEAN REAGAN

MAY 06, 2024

A friendly get-together recently split along the following fault line: can you believe those entitled brats on college campuses? And: thank God for those students bravely standing for justice on college campuses.

Everything is a lesson. Everyone is a teacher.

What is happening with the children? The ones who are younger than us by a generation or more? The ones who are setting up encampments and facing down police? Getting mocked, pepper-sprayed and arrested? What are they saying to us about Love? How are they calling us back into the human family, there to remember we are one?

Many years ago, talking to a relatively well-known ACIM teacher, I mentioned that later in the day I was going to protest the death penalty outside a federal courthouse. The teacher said gently, totally sure of their self, “Sean, you have to let go of politics in order to follow A Course in Miracles.”

Which was silly, of course. “You have to let go of politics” is itself a political statement! Caring about whether an ACIM student is also an activist reflects the same sense of specialness one thinks they are avoiding by saying, “you can’t be an activist.”

This is not to say that you have to oppose the death penalty or vote for Marianne Williamson or donate to a food or diaper bank or whatever. You do you. But our collective dream does have a lot of nightmarish qualities that stand in the way of shared happiness. Sooner or later, we have to investigate why we co-create a world in which rape, torture and murder figure so prominently. And when and as we do, we will find ourselves responding to those crises. Ignoring them is not how suffering is undone.

As you share my unwillingness to accept error in yourself and others, you must join the great crusade to correct it; listen to my voice, learn to undo error and act to correct it. The power to work miracles belongs to you (T-1.III.1:6-7).

The teacher with whom I was speaking believed the familiar ACIM trope that the course is unconcerned with our behavior. It’s about changing our mind, not our activity. But in fact the course addresses behavior very early in the text.

The Golden Rule asks you to do unto others as you would have them do unto you . . . The Golden Rule is the rule for appropriate behavior (T-1.III.6:2, 4).

The problem is that we can’t do that because we can’t perceive ourselves correctly. When we don’t know ourselves, we can’t know our brothers and sisters either. Given that state of confusion, of course our behavior is out of line with Love. Thus the emphasis on right perception.

You cannot behave appropriately unless you perceive correctly. Since you and your neighbor are equal members of one family, as you perceive both so you will do to both. You should look out from the perception of your own holiness to the holiness of others (T-1.III.6:5-7).

The thing is – and this is what a lot of us deny in our ACIM study and practice – we can only learn to perceive rightly and become accountable to holiness by giving attention to our lives in the world, behavior and all. And, again, critically, in that world a lot of our brothers and sisters are presently suffering grievous harm.

Hence the painful question: if the brother whose holiness you share is hungry tonight, shivering under a bridge, are you truly happy? If the sister whose holiness you share is scared to leave her home and scared to stay in it, are you truly at peace?

More bluntly: when you are hungry and/or scared, do you want to remain in that state or leave it?

I am not telling you – because ACIM is not telling you – how to respond to those crises. I am saying that our hearts have to open wide enough to hold those crises so that our mind can give attention to them. The nature of life means we are implicated in one another’s suffering. And yet, our complicity also reveals our “little part in bringing happiness to all the world” (W-pI.95.14:2).

If you are having a bad day, or if you feel lonely or full of despair, I can tell you from experience that giving food to one hungry person or standing with one person society has rejected will help you as much as years of psychotherapy. Minds heal fast when bodies are given to service in the Name of God Who is Love.

You are the Will of God. Do not accept anything else as your will, or you are denying what you are . . . see the Love of God in you, and you will see it everywhere because it is everywhere. See His abundance in everyone, and you will know that you are in Him with them. They are part of you, as you are part of God . . . There is only one way out of the world’s thinking, just as there was only one way into it. Understand totally by understanding totality (T-7.VII.10:1-2, 4-6, 9-10).

You and I cannot in one gorgeous, love-filled swoop fix armed conflicts in the Middle East, famine in Africa and billionaire folly in the United States. Nor are we are called to wallow in guilt and shame because of this. I also appreciate how the “world is not real” can make any response to injustice and inequity feel meaningless and hollow.

And yet.

When I listen to young people today, they call on me to take seriously our shared nightmare. They remind me that caring for each other is the foundation of happiness. Thus, they demand that I be accountable for my understanding and practice of holiness. Most of them have never heard of A Course in Miracles, but they are beautifully clear that we can only claim our right to happiness and peace by realizing that all our brothers sisters have the same right. Anything less is injustice and contrary to the Will of God (T-25.IX.8:1).

We are in this – in a literal way – together.

Your interpretations of your brother’s needs are your interpretation of yours. By giving help you are asking for it, and if you perceive but one need in yourself you will be healed. For you will recognize God’s Answer as you want It to be, and if you want It in truth, It will be truly yours. Every appeal you answer in the Name of Christ brings the remembrance of your Father closer to your awareness. For the sake of your need, then, hear every call for help as what it is, so God can answer you (T-12.I.7:1-5).

Is it clear? The students’ perception of crisis is our perception of crisis, and responding to it in the “Name of Christ” is how we resolve the crisis, so that we and the students remember together that we are all the same, all beautiful and equal in our holiness (T-13.VIII.6:1).

What should you do about your brother or sister who suffers today? Whose physical and psychological well-being is under constant attack? For that matter, what should you do about your brother or sister who is doing the attacking? Launching missiles, shooting rubber bullets, smashing glass?

When we are awake – which is to refuse to accept the terms and conditions imposed by the world of separation – then we remember our own holiness and that holiness teaches us what to do in the world. Of course we are going to act in the world – that is what human beings do! Jesus acted, Buddha acted, Ramana acted, Dorothy Day acted, Tara Singh acted . . .

But, because they looked out from the perception of their holiness unto the holiness of others (T-1.III.6:5-7), they were able to act from holiness, from the remembrance of shared innocence. That way, their actions testified unto holiness and reminded others of their holiness, so that they could act that way as well.

What does this look like in practice?

I mean, only you can really answer that question, right? I have a friend who socializes dogs at a local shelter and I have a friend who has been shot at and beaten up for doing journalism. Both are saviors. The truth is, your heart knows who you are called to serve and how to serve them. There are no mysteries, only distractions and delay.

Ego will say that what we do is not enough or that we’re naive or selfish or confused about the ACIM metaphysics or whatever. Don’t worry about that. Ego always babbles. Give attention instead to the interior decision to listen to ego and take its bad ideas seriously. Why diminish yourself? Who is helped by that? Instead, be friendly with the holy self you are in truth and in that way befriend the world in service of a happier dream that heals all suffering.

I heard one Voice because I understood that I could not atone for myself alone. Listening to one Voice implies the decision to share It in order to hear It yourself. The Mind that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind created by God, because God’s Wholeness is the Wholeness of His Son. You cannot be hurt, and do not want to show your brother anything except your wholeness (T-5.IV.4:1-4).

That is what it means to be a miracle worker. It means we follow Jesus by listening only to the Holy Spirit, whose lesson is always that we are innocent, and equal in our innocence. To realize this is to realize that miracles are not personal which at first seems paradoxical but in fact is profoundly liberating.

The impersonal nature of miracles is because the Atonement itself is one, uniting all creations with their Creator. As an expression of what you truly are, the miracle places the mind in a state of grace. The mind then naturally welcomes the Host within and the stranger without. When you bring in the stranger, he becomes your brother (T-1.III.7:3-6).

Bringing in the stranger takes form in the world. Let it! The form that serving your brothers and sisters takes is the form that saves you as well.

Limit the peace you share, and your Self must be unknown to you . . . Would you cut off a brother from the light that is yours? You would not do so if you realized that you can darken only your own mind. As you bring him back, so will you return. That is the law of God, for the protection of the Wholeness of His Son (T-11.IV.3:2, 4-7).

It’s easy to say “we are one,” we all do it. But to live in a way that brings forth our oneness is hard. It requires facing inequity and injustice and being willing to undo it. If I live in a way that makes you unhappy or unsafe or unwell then I am called to change. The kids protesting remind us of this. Caring for the happiness of all our brothers and sisters is the only way to be happy.

It’s easy to dismiss teachers like this. But I don’t want to afraid of the life I am called to live in order to remember that death is not real and suffering an illusion. I want to live so that I see “the glow of Heaven shining on the face of earth, redeemed from sin and in the Love of God” (S-2.II.8:6). But I can only see this way in relationship with you! Truly, “one instant spent together with your brother restores the universe to both of you” (T-18.VII.5:3).

Therefore, lauds and praise unto the young ones who teach me that “we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would know our Self” (W-pI.127.12:1). And lauds and praise to you as well for sharing the way with me. Without you, it doesn’t mean a thing.

I woke up this morning feeling off kilter and as the morning progressed, I saw a collage of moving, shifting, globs of color while my lips were murmuring “Earthquake”. I felt an intensity of emotion but tried to put it out of my mind. I had a lot to do this morning. In the afternoon, just east of here in Corona, CA there was a 4.0 magnitude temblor that felt like a big jolt. I haven’t watched the news but read that it could be a precursor to something bigger. That feels about right. So much around us is fracturing…to reveal the diseased parts of our humanity. It’s intense. The unseen is coming up to be seen and healed.

The Great American Eclipse of 04/08/2024 brought in the dismantling solar energies needed to dig up and expose the orphaned, unhealed, hidden aspects in each of us. These festering aspects are being brought up to the surface to be seen, felt, processed and brought into the loving light of inclusion. Generational trauma, schemes within families, institutions and governments will be revealed and leveled. So, what I’m getting is “Expect the Unexpected”. You have psychics, mediums, astrologers putting out their visions of the future. You have all sorts of ET experiencers and contactees saying so much that doesn’t come to pass. But give it some time. Some will. I feel a second sun, (Nibiru?) in our orbit but that may be coming from a parallel reality. In this world, the proof is in the pudding. My feet are buried in Earth Mother and my hands are leaves caressing the Sun’s solar vibrations. All I can do is receive and feel.

Each UFO expert has their own version of a Galactic Federation that will bring in free energy devices and new monetary systems that uplift the victims of the Elite. I’m waiting. Will this happen? Dunno. What I feel is a lot of deception behind many of those crystal-balling our future. There are many illusionary energies in the Astral Plane that interfere with our attempts to connect to Source Love and Truth. The Heart knows and it will repel from those beings and energies masquerading as Core, Source beings and energies.

One of the best mediums I’ve met is Hollister Rand. She told me I’m a medium although I haven’t taken it to a “professional level”. She said my gift was that of flowing out unconditional love. And believe me as a trauma survivor I’m surprised to hear that. These current Eclipse energies are digging up and exposing my Inner Orphan’s pain and anger and these energies are erupting, spray-painting the walls of my bedroom…I’m coming face to face with buried trauma that goes way back in my family line. Coming up and once recognized, the shame that flattens the soul begins to dissipate within the forgiving hug of Source. My website is dedicated to the healing of ancestral trauma and the reconnection to authentic power. It is my gift to those attracted to it and I will see where that leads.

I can safely say that what is offered in America as political choices for our upcoming election is more of the same stale stuff, same old control regimes. I sense deception on both sides of the aisle. When “the people” become truly represented, their best interests held in the forefront of every decision, then my dog-ears will perk up.

I have had Covid three times. Last time was in September 2023 resulting in Long Covid. My energy is greatly diminished with much neuropathy and brain fog. During a brief, recent reading, Hollister said she saw an Angel with me guiding me to Peace and Joy. Over the last six or seven months, I have woken in the dead of night to a searing pain sizzling through my entire body. There was an important message attached to it but it was so intense I couldn’t decipher it. Last night, it happened again and I crawled to my desk to write down, “There’s something in Covid or the VACCINE that flows opposite to your life stream limiting and reducing your lifespan.” Honestly, I don’t know if this was a trauma response from chronic pain or truly a message from my Inner Self that Covid and the vaccine will be seen to affect the life span of some or most humans in some way. The vaccine can be deadly to sensitive groups and can cause Long Covid. I feel strongly about avoiding any new concoctions of the Covid Vaccine but I have to remind myself that each of us come into this life with a soul mission. It really doesn’t matter the length of the life span of a person. No one gets born or dies against their will. And as much as I am loath to say this, Covid, its vaccine is a major catalyst, a shake-er upper, a wake-er upper.

A main challenge for me this lifetime is to feel the pain and the fear until I realize they are not enemies. They are MESSENGERS. Everything happens FOR US, not against us. At first, these lessons seem to be the hardest lessons for a trauma survivor to rap their head around because the head cannot understand the messages from the Soul. Only the Heart can. We are all separated from Source by degree and our job is to FEEL our way back into the Core Levels of Creation. This re-connection heals everything bringing Peace and Joy.

Trauma is the infestation causing fear and illness in most of the dualistic life forms on the Earth Mother and it affects everyone by degree. The TREES are core dimensional beings and stand as loving observers encouraging us to observe rather than participate in the cannibalistic feasting of our “civilized” collectives. The reptilian, reactive mind belonging to a dualistic paradigm is dissolving and as it does it barks and bites the loudest. But the Light always re-emerges brighter and lighter after the long eclipse of a 3D, earth plane lifetime. There is much to look forward to. Since the eclipse of 04/08/24 I have seen a constant stream of 11:11, 4:44, 3:33, 1:11. The construction crew is here to clear away the old constructs. And the Light coming in now is bringing FORGIVENESS into even the most hardened hearts. Disruptions in communication may bring dark days and dark nights but this is part of the clearing away.

FEEL everyone and everything. Question everyone and everything. We are witnessing the Great Dismantling.

From our perception on the Earth Plane, polarity rules. We denote the perception of falling or going down in a negative manner therefore we denote rising up or ascending as having a positive trajectory. These are truly confusing to a mind and heart expanding with Unity Consciousness. I propose a term that describes going within and returning to Source or Unity Consciousness as CIRCUMSCENSION. It is a spiraling down into the depths of your being. Forget about dimensions for a moment. It is returning to the Center of your Soul. And why is that so important? All authenticity exists in this Source-point of your Soul. Only from here can you expand an authentic existence and world. From your Source-point you can discern what is separated from Source and what is not. Those that are separated from Source are still contained within Source but they can’t perceive it. It is their perception of being separated that makes it almost impossible to feel the hugging arms of Source around them.

Climbing the spiral staircase into the heavens or galaxies can be a holographic trap. Sylvia Browne mentioned in one of her books that upon death of the body an umbilical chord emerges from the Soular Plexus and your Soul follows it Home. Home or Heaven if you will is not in the starry skies of Creation. Home is the sub-atomic Inner Dimensions that have no beginning or end yet grow with our experience in Creation (the Outer Dimensions of Creation which display various levels of duality and have beginnings and endings).

From going within we can harness Source Energy to expand in Creation, worlds that reflect Unity Consciousness. In creation EXPANSION is the name of the game rather than Ascension: the expansion of Source Energy rather than the destructive Ego Energies which can collapse Creation.

When you meditate it is best to bring the Light of Source up through the Earth Mother first before channeling it through your Chakras up through the Crown and out into the World. I really FEEL it is unsafe to open your Crown Chakra to receive so called Light in through the top of your head (unless you are truly working with an authentic healer who can truly discern and direct loving light energies in.) Robert Schwartz and Liesel Fricke are practitioners that I trust.

There are many rascals and tricksters out there on Earth and in the Stars. You have the ability to feel into these energies. Because of my many run ins with them I can usually smell them a mile or a millennia away. These orphaned aspects of Love are attracted to trauma, mental illness and substance abuse. If you are having a bad day, or week, or month or year or if you have suffered abuse or mental illness in your life you can be a prime target. I was and can still dip into the screeching chaos even now if I don’t follow healing meditations to keep me above the fray so to speak. These entities and energies feed off of DRAMA or LOOSH so the more that we can keep the light flowing through us, we can starve them back into remembering their connection to Source and the eternal food supply. The more we embody self-love and kindness to self and others the less of a target we will be. All of us are Love at our cores. As we practice the Golden Rule and radically forgive others and ourselves our world will transform. We will remember the exquisite, endless octaves of Source Beingness, finally able to play untethered, boundless games based in Love.

Remembering the exquisite, endless octaves of Source.

Namaste,

Sydney Lynn

Even the Land

can be worshiped

like an Idol.

This mountain opens

the doorway to Heaven.

This stream leads to

the Oceans of Paradise.

This tree arches its limbs,

an Angel in disguise.

This wind sounds out God’s Breath.

Hold on a minute.

Wait a millennia.

Lay down these weapons of worship.

We are this Land.

We are this Mountain.

We are this stream.

We are this Angel Tree.

We are this wind

sounding out God’s Breath.

We are the Source Portals of everlasting life.

Lynn,

I’m not a Christian.  I am the Spirit of the Christ, within you now healing you. Can you feel me bring peace to your being, your thoughts, your feelings, your emotions, every cell in your body?

Lynn: Yes, everything within me is relaxing deeply. 

Jesus: I AM THE CHRIST. AS I AM YOU CAN BE. The One Heart of the Christ does not resist. It accepts.  It accepts absolutely everything.  And therein lives NO FEAR. Resistance polarizes and separates you from your essence and the inclusion of the other.  The Heart of you is Unconditional Love but you live in Ego. Life on Earth tests who you really are. Every time you react in an unloving way, you gauge how that makes you feel. It gives you the ability to prefer. Every time you prefer to act in a loving manner you create Christ Consciousness. Stand in your Love. It is you. Don’t run from it. Sink into the depths of our Heart. Our peace breathes you from these depths. Reside here within the One Heart. For here, you can rest and heal in the Christ currents of our Love.

Sydney Lynn: Ever since around October 2023 my nervous system has become increasingly dysregulated: paresthesias, pain have plagued me day and night. Last night, the Christ Spirit brought me immense relief and peace wherein I could finally sleep. For those intertwined in convoluted family relationships as I am or other draining relationships, know that this peace is there within you. Ask for the healing of the Christ Spirit. As we shift into the inner realms of the Heart we can leave the aches and pains of a dying, bipolar world behind. The Shift is happening within us. And as we breathe the Christ Spirit into the world, it will change before our eyes. Namaste.

The new moon of 11/13/23 that occurred after the 11:11 portal of 11/11/2023 that pushed many of us into the birth canal of the Circumcension (ascension) process, charred me to the bone! So much so that I reached out to a friend and spiritual wanderer, Kris Farquhar, I had known in Colorado. I felt that our Planets of Light had answers for me. It was the first time I had reached out to have an astrological reading. And I absolutely knew nothing of this connection of constellations, planets and our individual souls. Boy was I in for a ride through the stars.

So the fateful day of 11/29/23 (my scheduled reading) launched me into the solar and planetary winds of change. The Soul sits in the Center as the Sun and its planets dance with the constellations, all dynamic reflections of the Soul’s plans for growth and expansion. Kris Farquhar plucked the wisdom I needed to hear from the strings of the Harp of Source as I became the receptacle of blazing streaks of astrological geometries such as aspects and trines. Kris said I had planned before I was born to bring the experience of re-living past lives into this present life I am living. (Not everyone does that but I guess I was on a mission to heal my Karma.) This life has been the process of completing and releasing the karma of the past by understanding it and taking the higher path of forgiveness of self and others. And yeah, I’m still working on it. The planets and constellations showed me a life of harsh challenges, self-sacrifice and being the peace keeper even if that meant stifling my VOICE. My horoscope showed me that when you shove your Voice inwards and you don’t speak your truth and you don’t speak up and CONFRONT the darkness and injustice in your life and in the world, the mind/body composite will become diseased.  The Light of Source which you need to shine out into the world will dim, become daggers of Self-loathing aimed at the very Heart of your Soul. I learned that Ego has a place in our lives, as a catalyst for Soul Growth. When the ego becomes traumatized it becomes diseased and creates psychopathy and other forms of mental illness.

I also learned from my Astro/Alchemy reading with Kris that I had a YOD which is pretty uncommon. Kris said this Yod is the fated Finger of God and it points to a mission of sharing higher knowledge with the world through my writings. This service is something I planned before beginning this incarnation. I’m trying to keep the courage up to complete my mission as we speak. Lately, I have had some neurological issues where I feel like I’m a lightening rod. A few nights ago, I half way woke up, went to my desk and wrote down a phrase. The next morning I went to my desk to find the phrase I wrote, “Airline disruptions”. This was before I learned of the Japan Airlines crash that occurred on January 2nd. On January 5th, a window and chunk of fuselage of Alaska Airline’s Boeing 737 blew out shortly after take off. I see malfunctioning due to mechanical, human and structural errors but in the near future also due to errors in the electrical grid brought on by cyber attacks. Solar Flares are affecting our satellites which affect our digital systems. Going digital has its drawbacks!

My body is picking up the chatter of much that has been hidden from us: the deception of our governments, our political parties and the dark shenanigans going on unbeknownst to the average citizen of goodwill. Empty promises are being made to the common man. No dualistic political party is to be trusted. These trouble makers run the world but between our Sun and the Earth Mother, their days are numbered. The more we awaken and speak out in the name of love, the upcoming collapse of our societal structures can be mitigated and replaced with structures supporting the Greater Good. I can only trust that our suffering has meaning and that there will be “protection and grace”.

Kris Farquhar’s Astro/Alchemy Astrology readings makes the Zodiac come alive. For an Astro/Alchemy reading and Sound Healing Journeys I can highly recommend contacting Kris Farquhar @ https://somaticsoundtherapeutics.com

I chatted with my twin sister on the phone this morning. We’ve had a difficult relationship ever since she ignored me at Fokine Ballet Camp when we were 13 years old. I fell into a deep depression causing our very close relationship to slowly crumble over the years. We are both child abuse trauma survivors. She turned to alcohol and drugs and I had eating disorders, depression, anxiety disorders. I had kids. She did not. She had a long term/drinking buddy marriage and I had two broken marriages resulting in following the singles road. Both of our psyches were fractured but in different ways.

So here we are chatting on the phone. I am talking about one of my three daughters. I am letting my ego just bleed out: “I wish Ta_hee would get a therapist to work out her issues (that I helped to create) so that she doesn’t go back to her hideous, domestic abuse partner. She’s got gray hair now and two more kids blah blah blah blah. Ok, here’s my sister. Hardly ever talks about spiritual stuff and she is suddenly saying to me, Let go of your ego’s need to fix other people. Lynn, you are on a Mommy Control Trip!” I start to sputter but no words come out. Her words have pierced a very hard layer in me. I feel like a balloon of caustic, toxic air is shooting out, totally deflating this huge pocket of pain within me. Whoa! I have this spiritual website where I am exploring the realms of Spirit, and here is my sister drinking pints of spirits every day and she is coming through with a wrecking ball of Higher Self-Healing from the Spirit Realms for me. (I had a reading with the renowned psychic, Sylvia Browne in 2002 where she said I was more spiritually advanced than my twin sister.) What utter nonsense. Don’t get me wrong. Sylvia helped me understand my gifts and themes in life and she saw the horror of my years as an abused and neglected child. Today, my dear twin sister born ten minutes after me, shined the Light of Spirit on a huge bubble of ego pain I really couldn’t see and feel deeply. She is like all of us. We are all Wounded Healers. The false teachings of “one person is more ENLIGHTENED than another” is a skewed ego perception. At any time, unexpectedly, the thick veil of ego can drop from any one of us showing the beautiful Soul within. Sylvia Browne believed in dark entities. The religions believe in evil: the devil, satan, beings condemned to an eternity of inescapable dungeons of depravity. But I believe everyone can connect back to Love. Every person can bring a glimpsing of the Light to another. On the other hand, I do believe that each of us are at different levels of AWAKENING from the false nightmare of the ego. Trauma splits the psyche creating Orphaned Aspects of Love that cling in desperation to paranoia, ego appetites and fractured perspectives. But this will be healed as more Light floods our planet with every breath we inhale from the Core. Our Sun is taking deep breaths of Light from the Core and exhaling it right into the Solar System, flinging Soular Flare energies into our atmosphere. We cannot help but breathe in these Core energies of Change. Where the energies are darkest on Earth Mother, chaos will ensue but the pot needs to be stirred and often only collapse can unblock the clogged Chakras of those suffocating in the deep trauma of ego indoctrination. As my sister says, “It’s all Good”. I know, the phrase is infuriating with all the suffering going on but when seen from the Bigger Picture, all of us when ready will board the train Home.

No Soul is older or younger, more or less evolved than another because there is no Time. The Core of every person is Love. 

In fact, in some spiritual circles, the villain is not looked at with disdain. He is looked at as the catalyst of change and growth that he truly is. It takes a courageous soul to undertake such a role as usually if not the head of a crazed cult, she is shamed and blamed and dragged through the cobble stone streets by the righteous, tarred and feathered. Before entering Life, every Soul plans its lifetime and all the chess plays it could possibly make: the good, the bad and the ugly. Once in life, the veil drops then the individual must open to his Soul’s intuition and guidance in order to traverse the storm. Not an easy feat that is why only the courageous come here. From what I hear from Robert Schwartz, Hitler is having a very rough time of learning to love himself after veering off his projected higher path and causing much suffering. Today, the karma of authoritarianism, counterfeit Christianity and the counterfeit, spiritual occultism infecting the New Age are rearing their ugly heads once again. The unbalanced karma in the Middle East is threatening to spread to the world and we all know what that means.

This balloon of Ego pus within me is draining. I feel relieved. I am not responsible for another’s life on the Earth Plane. I am truly only responsible for healing myself. I have spent most of my life focusing on my kid’s well-being and not my own. Dazed and confused I have enabled my kids and made them the main focus of my life, even when they were grown. From there I focused more on the greater good of humanity but still left myself behind. Towards the end of the chat I told my sister I can’t watch the news anymore. They are plastering pictures of the Palestinian children mauled by war. I can’t take it. She said, “What can you do?” I said meekly, “Well, I can write about it…

My sister said, “Let them be.” I blubbered, “Yeah, their Soul Plan will guide them. They are eternal beings…they will be ok.

Then my sister, at the end of our chat started singing “Let it Be”, by the Beatles. I was crawling on the floor of my Soul by then. I lifted my head and said, “Thank you”.

There was a moment when Moses had the nerve to ask God what his name is. God was gracious enough to answer, and the name he gave is recorded in the original Hebrew as YHWH.

Over time we’ve arbitrarily added an “a” and an “e” in there to get YaHWeH, presumably because we have a preference for vowels.

But scholars and Rabi’s have noted that the letters YHWH represent breathing sounds, or aspirated consonants. When pronounced without intervening vowels, it actually sounds like breathing.

YH (inhale): WH (exhale).

So a baby’s first cry, his first breath, speaks the name of God.

A deep sigh calls His name – or a groan or gasp that is too heavy for mere words.

Even an atheist would speak His name, unaware that their very breath is giving constant acknowledgment to God.

Likewise, a person leaves this earth with their last breath, when God’s name is no longer filing their lungs.

So when I can’t utter anything else, is my cry calling out His name?

Being alive means I speak His name constantly.

So, is it heard the loudest when I’m the quietest?

In sadness, we breathe heavy sighs.

In joy, our lungs feel almost like they will burst.

In fear we hold our breath and have to be told to breathe slowly to help us calm down.

When we’re about to do something hard, we take a deep breath to find our courage.

When I think about it, breathing is giving him praise. Even in the hardest moments!

This is so beautiful and fills me with emotion every time I grasp the thought. God chose to give himself a name that we can’t help but speak every moment we’re alive.

All of us, always, everywhere.

Waking, sleeping, breathing, with the name of God on our lips.
