This is the cornerstone of my belief now. As we encounter the intensities of the polarity of this third dimensional experience of earth as humanity reaches the Omega point of our evolution, we find more and more news of violence, a seeming decent into fascism and control and chaos at every turn. It can be frightening and confusing if we focus our thoughts and energy on these negativities.\u00a0 What do you choose to focus upon?<\/p>\n<p>The other day I had a profound experience as I was practicing my &#8220;being&#8221; and sitting by the local river here in Portland. It was a beautiful day with the sun shining on the water. <!--more-->I was fascinated to observe that when a kayak went floating by, each time the person in the boat would place their oar into the water, streams of sparkles of light would dance and radiate from that place as if the person were creating magic! Sparkles on water is one of my favorite things in the world and always reminds me of beauty and loveliness. Then I &#8220;got&#8221; this realization from my Higher Self &#8230; a few years ago I symbolically jumped into the River of my Soul (I see it as a liquid river of Light) and surrendered to my soul.<\/p>\n<p>This experience was so empowering as I saw that I was letting go of ego and choosing to allow my soul to guide me.\u00a0 Doing this, I was able to let go of fear and to truly trust the universe. And here was another lesson.\u00a0 I saw myself once again jumping into the river, floating on my back, and allowing the river to take me to my destiny. What I saw was that the lighter I could be, the more I could see the sparkles! By letting go of my attachments, I was letting go of heaviness and therefore able to float on top of the water and avoid being swallowed up by it and sinking into the darkness.<\/p>\n<p>In the ancient Egyption system, it was believed that one&#8217;s heart must be light as a feather to enter into their idea of &#8220;heaven.&#8221; That is what it felt like for me this time. The more I can focus on the Light, letting go of the negative and keeping my heart open to only love, the more my soul can guide me easily and effortlessly into JOY. It is a flow thing and pure surrender.\u00a0 After this experience, I came upon two brilliant articles that speak to this very thing. They show how we do have the power to create our reality and the more we focus on what we want, rather than what we don&#8217;t want, the more we can empower the new earth.<\/p>\n<p>The Truth is that we are Beings of Light co-creating our reality. The illusion is that we are slaves to the Old Matrix (the collective unconscious of mankind). This is so very important now as humanity goes through the eye of the needle to our new reality.\u00a0 I have placed these two articles below for your enjoyment and empowerment. Please enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Love, Trish<\/p>\n<p><em>#1\u00a0 A Message from Jesus for July 17, 2016 from John Smallman:<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Remember that all attacks or modes of defensiveness are fear-driven responses by those desperately seeking to be loved. The illusion, your worldly environment built with the collective intent to experience separation, is collapsing! Humanity\u2019s spiritual awakening is causing it to fragment and shatter into myriad irreparable components.<\/h3>\n<p>Vast numbers of you have seen through the veil that appears to separate you from your divine Source, and it is dissolving like morning mist as more and more of the fear-driven dishonesty and corruption within all of your human societies right across the world is exposed by whistle-blowers and courageous investigative journalists. The electronic connectedness that enables people all over the world to communicate almost instantaneously with each other is the solvent in which the illusion is so effectively and rapidly being dissolved.<\/p>\n<p>Your modern technologies, when sanely and lovingly developed, are of invaluable assistance in your process of awakening, and each day further new ones are being developed and brought into the public domain. Change, on a scale never before seen in your illusory and conflict-driven world, is happening in every field of human endeavor, and as a result there is absolutely no one on Earth at this moment in humanity\u2019s spiritual evolution who is completely unaware of what is happening.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, there are still many in positions of authority who choose not to see, who refuse to be aware that change on an unprecedented scale is occurring planet-wide.\u00a0 Do not concern yourselves about these frightened ones who are attempting to maintain the status-quo, the old order, in which a few with wealth, influence, and power continue to believe that it is their inalienable right to control the world and enslave its inhabitants. That mind-set or belief system, which depended on the human community\u2019s acceptance of it as valid for it to work, is an aspect of the illusion, of the games that humanity has been playing for eons, that has now been shown to be totally unworkable, and those who continue to hold that vision are being removed from their authoritative positions and finding themselves no longer in power.<\/p>\n<p>The old power structures, that kept you subservient to authoritarian elites, and that claimed to be democratic systems in which everyone was heard and honored, are being dismantled and those who operated them are being released from duty, much to their dismay.\u00a0 New systems, honoring all on the planet and respecting and protecting each individual\u2019s right to live free and abundantly, have been prepared and will shortly come into operation. Enormous preparations have already been made to ensure that a smooth transition into these new systems takes place quickly and effectively so that the current seeming chaos and confusion worldwide comes to an abrupt end as the old, outdated, and conflict driven methods of human interaction are exchanged for the new and harmonious systems for which so many of you have been hoping and praying.<\/p>\n<p>The Tsunami of Love has done its work well, and every human now has within them the ability and awareness to lovingly embrace and engage with the essential changes to relationships at every level of society that the new systems will establish. You, the light bearers and light workers, have done amazing work as you have set and continue to set the intent each day to be loving in every situation, thus intensifying the effect of the Tsunami as it flows caressingly and continuously across the planet embracing every individual on Earth at this point in your spiritual evolution.<\/p>\n<p>There is no one on Earth at present who is not feeling and responding most positively to its influence.\u00a0 Make a point of responding daily with joy and gratitude to the inner knowing you all share \u2013 that humanity is in the process of awakening, and that the process is not only irreversible, but is in fact gathering momentum. Then reconfirm your intent to make it happen through your unconditional love and acceptance of every soul on Earth, every soul without exception. Remember that all attacks or modes of defensiveness are fear-driven responses by those desperately seeking to be loved.<\/p>\n<p>Your intent to be only loving is the most effective way to melt the fear that has been endemic on the planet for so long, and now you can clearly see the inspiring results of those holy intentions in places that have for so long been riven by conflict and distrust.\u00a0 In all areas of conflict across the globe families who have suffered appallingly are coming together from both sides of those conflicts to meet in compassion with the intent to understand one another and to heal the wounds that they have been inflicting on each other. Sharing their experiences of the horrific suffering that they have undergone with those who have for so long been their enemies shows them quite clearly that in conflicts no one wins, but that all suffer and to no avail. And those meetings are born from Love, from the intense need and desire for Love that conflict denies.<\/p>\n<p>Truly, all want only Love. Conflicts have always arisen due to fear that instead of being addressed has been buried and denied. Fear is a powerful aspect of the illusion that holds you in its thrall and leads to preemptive attacks that strengthen it. Your wars on drugs, poverty, homelessness, and terror, as well as \u201cpolice-keeping\u201d military engagements in foreign lands, are like your family disagreements on behavioral issues \u2013 exercises in judgment based on ego-driven opinions by those who would retain power over others \u2013 but on a much larger scale.<\/p>\n<p>When conflicts expand, as they almost always do, the ability to connect personally is lost, and people then choose to support opposing sides in what they see as necessary conflicts to reestablish peace on their terms.\u00a0 Finally you have realized that this never works, that conflicts always escalate, and that the numbers of those suffering also escalates leading to an increased sense of fear and anger, and inducing a desire for vengeance.<\/p>\n<p>Love is fearless because, in truth, there is nothing to fear. When you surrender to Love fear diminishes, and as your ability and intent to be loving strengthens then fear falls away. Truly, as we have so often told you \u201cno matter what the question is, no matter what the problem appears to be, Love is always the answer.\u201d And humanity is now becoming increasingly aware of this divine Truth.\u00a0 Individually you need to remind yourselves of this daily on waking, then remind yourselves again throughout the day, especially when situations arise that seem ready to explode into conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Fear arising is the ego\u2019s attempt to control you and draw you back into the illusion from your personal space of peace. It thrives on conflict, and cares not that it brings you suffering and shame. By being your true Selves, beings of Love in a chaotic world, you disarm the ego leaving it speechless when its only wish is to shout and scream. In the absence of screaming and shouting, the desire for conflict subsides, peace arises, and Love embraces all present.<\/p>\n<p>Be Yourselves, enjoy life as it arises moment to moment, and your individual energy fields will meld creating a space that welcomes all who approach you.\u00a0 Your loving brother, Jesus.<\/p>\n<h3><em>#2 Are You Awake or Just Informed? By Zen Gardner\u00a0<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>This is a very interesting question, and perhaps a provocative one. With the information explosion drastically influencing so many lives there appear to be many strata of awakening levels arising. Once people start connecting the dots of now available facts and formerly unavailable research, whole new paradigms through which to perceive our changing reality emerge.\u00a0 What we do with this new information, and how far we keep pursing deeper and deeper levels of perception, determines our outlook at any given time.<\/p>\n<p>This is why constant change and continual learning are integral to progressing toward a full on awakening. As we continue to evolve in perception we begin to see that underlying this deluge of surface information there are amazing consistent truths to grasp and implement that will truly transform not only ourselves, but the world around us.\u00a0 We Are Our Perception.<\/p>\n<p>Even quantum physics has confirmed what the sages have taught through the ages. What we perceive and apply our intention to determines our individual reality. That we are in fact fully in charge of how we perceive the world around us is the underlying truth that is being masked from humanity. Completely contrary to the deterministic model we\u2019ve been taught, our very being is not the result of set factors we can do very little about, but the exact opposite.\u00a0 We literally are a projection of our own consciousness. The rest is up to us as to how much we let the illusory projection laid before us determine our reality.<\/p>\n<p>When we grow to more fully grasp the enormity of the significance of that fact things really start to kick into gear. This will not be taught nor even implied by matrix scientism, the educational and media web of lies, nor blinding, binding religious dogma. But once this truth is discovered, in fact experienced as it must be, the majesty of existence opens up to such glorious vistas of empowerment and possibility the very grip of any and all external influences and limiting mind conceptions falls away as if it never existed in the first place.\u00a0 Because it essentially didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>It was only real from a deliberately manipulated limited perception that created a feedback loop of illusion, giving the appearance that there were no other possibilities outside that manufactured realm.\u00a0 Information is a Tool, Not an Answer.\u00a0 Knowing what\u2019s really going on around us is just the beginning. Realizing that in fact this is an imposed psycho-spiritual prison built on deliberate deceit is simply the gateway. We don\u2019t need to spend of the rest of our lives describing how they do what they do and how bad it is in an almost neurotically hysterical state.\u00a0 That\u2019s simply another level of containment if we don\u2019t keep on progressing towards a full awakening way beyond the confines and influences of their entrapping infectious system.\u00a0 It\u2019s surpassing those first orbits as we clear the pull of the dense gravitational nucleus we\u2019re born into that things really start to get interesting. And extremely empowering.<\/p>\n<p>We cannot begin to know the deep, essential solutions our souls long for by operating within the externally imposed density as we\u2019ll only reinforce the strength of the spider\u2019s web by our futile struggling. The spider is much wiser than we when we operate within its parameters.\u00a0 We have to first safely transcend and then operate from a clearly distanced perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Until Then\u2026Don\u2019t Be Intimidated or Enthralled by Shadowland.\u00a0 The beautiful so-called secret key to conscious awakening is that you\u2019ll know it when you\u2019ve found it. If you\u2019re still not sure, your not there yet. No worries, that\u2019s the path we all have to take. Seek in sincerity and you will find. Until then all is grist to mill. We gain strength, wisdom, determination and shed the mechanisms that have held us back as they are revealed to us.\u00a0 It\u2019s all part of the process.\u00a0 And definitely, at whatever stage of our awakening, we need to keep exposing the trickery and deceit to help others along the way and out of the net, but we mustn\u2019t dwell there or let it get under our skin, even in our sacred anger and outrage.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a time for everything, but if we\u2019re going to realize the true solutions for our planet and its inhabitants we need to first get to where we know from whence we are operating, with a crystal clear vision of what needs to be done from a firm foundation in loving truth.\u00a0 Even more so, we need to rediscover and realize the true spiritual power tools at our disposal. As we do, and is already happening, our weaponry of truth outmatches their foolish artificial 3-D hardware to such an extent they will be exposed to be the imposters they are \u2013 nothing but dark shadows trying to usurp the sun.\u00a0 Absolute futility, and not a game worth getting caught up in.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s only our lower levels of perception that give their illusion any form of reality. Once we transcend and live in the realization of who we truly are this lower level projection we can call shadowland has nowhere to cast its illusion\u2026and it is gone.<\/p>\n<p>Indescribable Truth.\u00a0 The truth is indescribable in mental terms. This is why we are so awed by the ideas of nature, fractals, sacred geometry and this magnificent physical design as the handiwork of something we know is much more spectacular that lies behind it.\u00a0 Left brained science, even when it\u2019s well meaning, cannot begin to fathom this richness as it seeks to contain this living energy in a form of mental and even scientific egoic dominance. As hard as they try to crack the code with these motives they\u2019ll never do it. They may make a mess in the process, which they are, but trying to understand from that limited mind set is like trying to empty the ocean with a spoon.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a complete exercise in futility all based on the reinforcement of self.\u00a0 Unless there\u2019s some tangible, \u201cprovable\u201d answer, some substantive, explainable, logical something they can see, taste, touch, smell and feel they won\u2019t accept it. Again the self-reinforcing feedback loop that will never be broken. To find real truth you have to find it and experience it for yourself, one hungry heart at a time. When you want it bad enough you\u2019ll find it, or at least the next clue to keep you on your way towards greater truth.<\/p>\n<p>Sure there are many types and levels of truth, but the ultimate truth is fundamentally an ongoing interactive experience with our interconnected consciously aware universe within which we are all magnificently woven. It\u2019s that same creative source we can only barely sense at times, but that we see in the magnificent world around us and the fertile imagination of our sentient hearts and intuitive souls.<\/p>\n<p>Truth Can Only Point the Way \u2013 Ours Is to Pursue.\u00a0 These are just hints at what lies beneath these layers of illusion, the lowest of which is this synthetic matrix of deceit that has been deliberately laid to ensnare the hearts of humanity.\u00a0 Even the physical world is an almost crude five sense manifestation of the intricate workings of creation but what a joy to experience! To realize these are barely fleeting glimpses of much more amazing realities is beyond belief\u2026and that\u2019s good, belief is a limiting containment system.<\/p>\n<p>Experience is what we\u2019re shooting for.\u00a0 Just don\u2019t give up. There are plenty of pitfalls on the way as that\u2019s what this learning and growing experience is all about, so get used to it. Just learn from it and keep on. There are many levels of awakening but each one is more amazing than the last. What should propel us though is not just the path of wondrous personal discovery, although that\u2019s a big part of it, but to access the resources we need to further dissolve the snare laid for those still unaware of their plight within this lower world of control and deceit.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no greater driving force than the unstoppable power of empathic compassion. We share the pain of all those still trapped and blinded by the the great deception, and by our very connectivity we are love-bound to awaken to our most empowered state possible to help bring about the transformation we are all longing for.\u00a0 Much love and do keep on, we\u2019re all integral to this process\u2026\u00a0 Love, Zen\u00a0 ZenGardner.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Light Prevails.
