See yourself for who you truly are.

See yourself for who you truly are.

If we could transmit to you just one per cent of God's pure love for you, you would never doubt yourselves again―

You would flourish in greatness―

Each breath touched by a miracle―

Each winking of the eye expressed in greatness.

John L. Payne, Omni Reveals the Four Principles of Creation, 2001, Findhorn Press, United Kingdom, Chapter 1, Who or What is Omni? 18

What is God's gift?

The gift of God in Christ.

You will never understand its magnitude—its selflessness—its essential Godlikeness. 

You cannot take it in. 

—Spirit Zodiac, the Christ Messenger

You reflect that which is divine.

The greater Light, shining on the smaller light, enables that smaller light to cast out rays of beauty, and these, according to the Light, which shines upon it, are able to reflect that which is divine.

―Zodiac, the Christ Messenger

I am so happy my soul expands in love.

I am so happy my soul expands in love.

Realise that life is more than meets the eye.

Keep an open mind.

Realise that life is more than meets the eye.

What are accomplished in the soul?

The lessons you learn are accomplished in the soul. 

You need knowledge—

You were sent to the earth to learn your lessons—

Later, return to the astral and express what you have learned. 

The spirit rules supreme. 

You will develop there. 

You are an expression of God's soul. 

Everywhere is God's spirit. 

He is supreme and everlasting light. 

The astral is symbolic of God's body and His organs. 

You are like unto God.

Return to a life of faith.

Return to a life of faith—

Rest in the conscious nearness and friendship of the Infinite Spirit, knowing that God is not afar off, but nearer than the closest friend, and that nothing is so abiding sure, as His love and providential care.

You must give that which you cherish most.

You must give that which you cherish most—yourself, your ideas, your privacy, your sacred reserves—

All with love.

Never curse any man.

Jesus said—

Whatever you bless on earth shall be blessed, and whatever you curse shall be cursed.  

Just as bad thoughts are infectious, and good ones healing, never curse any man, but bless always, and blessings will return to you.

Hold a vision of what you can become.

Reach upwards towards your highest dreams and vision of yourself.

Hold a vision of your greater self. Hold a vision of what you can become—a vision of love, health and well-being, abundance, and the knowledge that you are creator—that you create your own reality. Seek your higher good and expect nothing in return.

You are literally what you think!

You are literally what you think, your character being the complete sum of all your thoughts.

Do you have courage enough?

You are invited to be courageous enough to explore, and examine this new understanding, and if it aligns with your inner truth, and knowing, to enlarge your belief system to include it.

Neale Donald Walsch,The New Revelations, A Conversation with God,  Hodder & Stoughton, 2002, Chapter 21, 225

I have courage enough.

 

Where does the soul go after death?

Where does the soul go after death?

Spirit Samuel Bowles describes his entrance into spirit life—

As life faded out, and I was gradually losing hold of the old body, what had before been an intense pain in my chest, slowly changed to a sensation of heaviness. 

There was no inclination to throw off the incubus that weighed me down. The sobs in the room and the low tones were like far-away murmurs.

My busy brain, in a few moments, brought up the vivid scenes of my life—its early struggles, its later successes—

All were like a panorama, spread out before me. I knew that what had been called the King of Terrors was with me, but I felt no fear.

Gradually, the scenes in the room receded far away. The efforts of the old form for breath seemed like some other person beside myself. 

And then the loved ones of my childhood days were around me, with bright faces, holding out their arms and beckoning me over. 

A sensation then came to me that I was rising up out of myself, and from over the old head, there was another head that thought and saw!

Spirit Samuel Bowles (through the mediumship of Carrie E. S.Twing (Carolinn Edna Skinner), Experiences of Samuel Bowles in Spirit Life (Or, Life As He Now Sees It from a Spiritual Standpoint), 1881, The Star Publishing Company, Massachusetts, U. S. A., Paper First, His Entrance upon Spirit Life, 1

You determine your own line of future action.

You determine your own line of future action, inasmuch, as you decide what condition of life you will exist in by the direction of your aspirations. 

If you are one who is always aspiring to be better than you are, you will inevitably become so on the principle that prayer or willpower is the operative influence, which shapes your future career. 

So; on the other hand, if you are one who is content through life to remain what you are, you will never rise into any other position until new thoughts and aspirations are quickened into being by contact with life in the next world.

Is it best to call down all your past Karma?

Is it best to call down all your past Karma, so that you can wipe it out in one life?

It is a great mistake to demand that you have all your Karma given to you in one life. 

It is just as great a misunderstanding of the Divine Law and just as wrong as to try to eat at one meal all the food needed for a week. 

The great angelic Lords of Karma apportion to each Soul exactly what each Soul is able to bear and work out advantageously in each life. 

Yet the Law is that if you demand and insist, you must be allowed to have your demand, and by the sad experiencing of that for which you are not prepared or able to use, learn your lessons just as you would learn through indigestion not to eat all the food in sight. 

But you need not have gone through the suffering had you been willing to accept what the Law had apportioned to you.

If you ask for all your Karma to be precipitated, the great load is poured out upon you before you are strong enough to cope with it and you are forced to admit your weakness and turn to the Great Law for help, for you have tried to do in one life that which should have been spread out over many lives as you were ready to work it out constructively and harmoniously. Moreover, by making the demand, you have made more Karma.

In a sense, such a demand is an impertinent and conceited rebuke to the great Lords of Karma, for it assumes that Their judgment as to what is best for you is inferior to your own. 

Also, if your entire time and attention is taken up in fighting and being pushed to the utmost to bear that which was not assigned to you, you have little time and strength left to cultivate the positive qualities of love and joy or to help others. 

Yet in this world of sorrow and trouble, it is most important that these qualities be definitely cultivated and lifted up and radiated, especially by those who are at all advanced and to whom others may look for help and guidance and example and thus make the world a little less like a purgatory. 

Therefore, you make a great mistake when you try so to fill your life with negative Karma to be redeemed that you make your life joyless.

You will thus see that very often when you think yourself the least selfish, you are in reality manifesting but a higher sort of selfishness and a sort of personal pride in the amount of suffering you are able to bear. 

If you do not care for worldly things, and it is no deprivation to do without them—hence it is no sacrifice—yet all the time you are ardently desiring other possessions, personal powers, and so on, can you not see that when you demand the thing you desire most, you are asking for the gratification of your own wishes just as much as if they were for material possessions while you should be joyously and happily taking what your Father sees is best and asking daily for strength and wisdom to utilise it wisely and learn its lessons? 

When you strive to make the Divine Will your will, you have the strength to meet and conquer all things and are never overwhelmed.

You cannot expect supernatural help to bear burdens, which the Great Law never intended you should bear in one life. 

You have many important things to learn and do in life besides bearing burdens and suffering. And sometimes, it is more difficult to turn your mind away from yourself and your woes and be joyful and radiate happiness than it is to crucify yourself, for you have to be very far advanced indeed to hang upon the cross and still radiate joy to the world instead of suffering and agony.

Your wishes and aspirations set into motion a mighty force.

By your wishes and your aspirations, you are setting into motion a mighty force.

You are sowing in the Spirit.

The world's view and the construction put upon the outward and visible—these do not matter; these are the things which pass away. You are sowing in the Spirit, and in the Spirit, the harvest is glorious indeed.

A message to those who have started to climb.

To those who have started to climb with a thin and weak staff to help them—because, within yourself, the spiritual longing is so great, as you go on you will see that by the miracle of God's Love, that which was weak is made strong—that which needed support will support you and others as well.

What controls, uplifts and directs your little craft of life?

The mighty, controlling, uplifting, directing force of faith is so charged with power—and it may seem that you wander alone on an unknown sea, guided by no compass but that of a wavering faith—yet because even that wavering faith is there, so the little craft of your life goes on its journey and finds God's harbour at last.

Faith is precious.

Faith is precious; faith has such power that, of necessity, it must be worked for, if it is to be made your own.
