From The Secret - your thoughts create your future
Your current thoughts are creating your future life. What you think about the most or focus on the most will appear as your life.
From The Secret - prosperity is your birthright
Prosperity is your birthright, and you hold the key to more abundance - in every area of your life - than you can possibly imagine. You deserve every good thing you want, and the Universe will give you every good thing you want, but you have to summon it into your life. The Secret is that you have the key. The key is your thoughts and feelings. And you have been holding the key in your hand all of your life.

Re-examination of relationships that no longer serve us.
Lately many relationships that no longer serve our soul's higher good are being re-examined. Divorces and separations are increasing in number.
Perhaps in Asia this may not be so obvious since Asians tend to be more reserved about divorce. However it's still on an uptrend. And couples may still be together but are actually already "separated" in heart.
2011-2015 (I may not get the years right) seems to be a period of upheaval even for individual families!
Chances are, if we're in a relationship that no longer serve our higher good, things or events are just gonna happen to make us re-evaluate that relationship and decide what we want to do with it.
Postponing decisions will only make it more painful and unbearable until we are forced to sit down and really look into it.
And when we look at it to re-evaluate it, we will really need to weigh it out: to stay on or to go.
If it no longer serves our higher good, then the most obvious answer would be to leave.
However, there is still free will. We can choose to stay on for whatever reason: for the children; to change someone; or anything.
But know that both decisions come with its own consequences and lessons. There is no right or wrong. A decision needs to be made in order to move on.
What's not ok is postponing any decision or expecting others to make the decision as this would mean not taking responsibility of our own life.
Personally I would prefer to end it since it no longer serves my higher good. But that's just my opinion.
And guess what? Sometimes when we see a couple arguing everyday, you may feel like you don't want to be the catalyst for them to argue or accidentally say something that would cause them to argue.
No... Look... It's not about you. You cannot stop it. If not you, it would be someone or something else anyway. So why live your life treading on glass when around such couples?
And look at it another way: if you know today that a couple needs to argue 1000x more before they make a decision that ultimately leads to both achieving their greatest human potential (whether together or separated), wouldn't it then make sense that they should go through that 1000x faster rather than slower or worst, not going through that 1000x at all and thus not achieving their potential.
Make sense?

From The Secret - "You create your own universe as you go along."
Just like the law of gravity, the law of attraction never slips up. You don't see pigs flying because the law of gravity made a mistake and forgot to apply gravity to pigs that day. Likewise, there are no exclusions to the law of attraction. If something came to you, you drew it, with prolonged thought. The law of attraction is precise.
"You create your own universe as you go along."
-WINSTON CHURCHILL
(1874-1965)

From The Secret - The Pruning Shears of Revision.
The great teacher Neville Goddard offered the following process in 1954 in a lecture entitled "The Pruning Shears of Revision." Every day, before you go to sleep, think through the events of the day. If any events or moments did not go the way you wanted, replay them in your mind in a way that thrills you. As you recreate those events in your mind exactly as you want, you are cleaning up your frequency from the day and you are emitting a new signal and frequency for tomorrow. You have intentionally created new pictures for your future. It is never too late to change the pictures.

How does spirituality and ET add up?
The "Grey"s |
Ok, now lets get on with the interesting stuff... :-)
In Spirituallity I have said we are created in HIS likeness. We're energy beings, energy with consciousness. We are souls that have come forth from the Source (or surpreme intel or God or whatever you want to call it) to experience our creation. We may even take physical incarnation(s) to do our "work". Only upon completion of our work do we return to the Source.
So how does ET fit in... if they exist? Well.. simple, let's put it this way. To ET, we're ET. Get it?
"Reptilian" from the movie "Signs" |
It doesn't matter what ET looks like. ET is also an energy being, a soul (just like us) created from the same Source, who has come forth to experience its creation, taking physical incarnation(s) to do their "work". And like us, only upon completion of their work do they return to the same Source.
Hold on, you say, they are from the same Source? But they don't necessarily look like us right? Correct. They don't necessarily look like us. God knows what they look like. Though if you make a search on the internet you would find many theories plus pictures of Reptilians, Greys, etc etc. Well, I have yet to see one so I don't know how they look like apart from what I've seen in the movies :-)
But their soul comes from the same Source. It's simple, all of us, in the whole universe comes from the same One Source, The Source of it All. The I AM THAT I AM.
ET aka Alien priest |
The physical appearance is another matter all together. Physical appearance depends on the location (in this case, solar system or galaxy or even dimension etc but I could be way off here). Think of it this way... On Earth, we all have souls but incarnate as Human Beings right? But Asia for example: If you are born to Asian parents, you look Asian right? And if too European parents, then you look European. And within Asia itself, there is Chinese, Indian, Malay, Vietnamese, Japanese etc etc etc. So this is where the DNA blueprint comes into play to determine our physical appearance.
The Divine Human |
Likewise, for ET, he has that too. a DNA blueprint for his "race" of people. But... if you look at his hands (3 finger, 4 finger or whatever no of fingers) under a powerful microscope, its still cells; and within cells, atoms; and smaller than atoms, just energy with consciousness... just like us... created in HIS "likeness" (energy)
Get it?
So the idea of there being aliens isn't such a difficult idea to accept after all isn't it. Unless of course you literally translate the holy books that we are so unique that there is no other sentient intelligent being anywhere else outside Earth. Oh Puhleezzz :-p
Imagine one day... well lets just take a hypothethical situation... ET does land and announce their presence to the world and they tell us that "oh we've dropping many hints over the centuries via your holy scriptures and through your Avatars"... Walaowei... organized religion as we know it would collapse overnight man.
Hmmm... you know... I am really looking forward to the day when something like Star Trek and Star Wars becomes reality i.e. you have alien races of all sorts walking through downtown together with humans. lol :-)

What we do is sooo loud, people don't hear what we say
This is another topic I really like to talk about but have postponed and postponed... yes, I'm guilty of procrastination :-)
I know of a few very "advanced spiritual" people who... well... I like to jokingly call it "chasing Rimpoches". Not meant in any bad taste of course :-)
But somehow... I don't know... because they themselves are very advanced (they are also powerful magicians), they seem to also expect the Rimpoches to give them "special treatment". And when they don't get that "special treatment", they get pissed off and, well, I heard they have even dismissed some Rimpoches as "not high enough". I can't verify this claim of course. What I also heard is that they also get pissed when Rimpoches do not teach them certain spiritual techniques or higher techniques that they seek.
Well... I'm a layman. But that kind of attitude is akin to Aesop's "the fox and the grapes" don't you think so?
To me, as you go higher, you should be more humble. This applies to all aspect of life. Even wealth and success. Truly successful people are people who are humble. They may demand the best quality but they do not forget their humility. Same applies to spirituality. The higher the Guru, the more humble he/she is.
In my humble opinion, the obvious lesson they have to learn is humility. When they finally learn that, that's when the higher teachings open up for them. Otherwise, it will remain hidden from them and in some cases, it may even be a case of "so near yet so far" i.e. you can see it, you know it is there, but you just can't get access to it. That is like the ultimate whatever you want to call it. [sigh].
And the thing is this... everyone around them is watching them. So on one hand they may preach certain philosophy but on the other hand, their actions are not congruent with what they preach. People will eventually have questions... [sigh]
Just my two cents

Maslow's diagram and spirituality
I don't know why, but I really want to write about this. And as usual, it is my opinion only. Others can differ in their opinions.
I know of some spiritual people who keep chasing spirituality e.g. chasing Rimpoches etc. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that. It is a personal choice on one's own spirituality i.e. wanting to accelerate one's own spiritual development. It's commendable that one should want to. Of course, I hope they have gotten their basic needs handled.
The reason I say this is Maslow's diagram where as humans, we tend to place priorities in accordance to our needs. E.g. basic needs comes first, then sense of security for ourselves, followed by family and eventually our spirituality. So, for us to want to develop our spirituality, we better ensure that our most basic needs, our family needs are looked after otherwise it would be difficult to keep up the pace in our spiritual growth.
From the energy perspective:
Basic needs are "handled" by our lower chakras i.e. Basic Chakra, Sex Chakra etc. Higher spiritual needs are "handled" by our higher chakras i.e. Ajna Chakra, Crown Chakra etc.
Developing our spirituality actually increases the sizes of our higher chakras and, sometimes, reduce the size of our lower chakras. Our energy bodies become an inverted pyramid as we strive to "spiritually grow".
However, our ability to manifest for our daily needs (especially if we stay in the city) are handled by our lower chakras. If these chakras reduce in size, how on earth are we going to "place bread on the dining table"?
So, in order to continue developing our spirituality, it follows that our basic needs must first be taken care off. Our energy bodies have to be well developed (both higher and lower chakras) so that we can manifest for our daily needs (physical aspect) and yet able to develop our spiritual aspect.
Imagine chasing spirituality when you can't even put bread on the table for your family. It becomes unnecessarily difficult and creates unnecessary problems with one's family.

Channelers, mediums and psychic readings
Channelers, mediums and psychic readings have existed for ages. But are they real? Some people would claim that they are. Some would claim that it is not accurate. Now you have some psychics who would add disclaimers like one I know who keeps saying that she is wrong 70% of the time. :-)
Of course, as usual, there will be those of us who say this is un-"whatever". [sigh]... Whatever lah..
Psychic readings basically tap into your consciousness and pick the vibes and "read" them. Channelers and mediums usually have a spiritual being or deity that act as the "informer". The channeler/medium acts only as that, a channel or medium for the information to flow through.
My understanding of how Channelers, mediums and psychic readings work is this:-
Let's just take a paralel. Think of your life as a DVD Role Playing Game :-)
In that disc all moves and their corresponding resultant sequence of events and outcomes have already been played. It's all stored in that disc. And as you, the player, makes a certain decision during gameplay, the corresponding data is extracted and brought to your character in the game.
Some different moves still lead to the same outcomes. Some moves, on the other hand, leads to completely different outcomes.
Still follow me?
And the likelihood is that you as the player have a certain set of believes when you play the game that would generally guide you to make decisions based on those believe system and so you will choose moves that are consistent with that.
Of course there are those of us who are more adventurous in a game than in real life coz we know it is a game. But that's besides the point.
The point is that we bring forth from the disc, events and outcomes (in the game) as a result of the moves and decisions we made during role playing.
Take this same paradigm back to reality and Channelers, mediums, and psychic readers. In real life, your believe systems that lies within your subconscious act as a guiding "navigator" for you in your decision making process.
So when a psychic, medium, or Channelers "reads" you, the reading is based on the stage in life where you are now, the "direction" you are headed, and your general guiding principles. Hence from there, they pick up the vibes of your future outcome.
And it is accurate.
However, and this is a BIG however. If you are someone who is constantly growing i.e. developing yourself, then the reading may differ from the actual outcome.
This is because as you "grow" you make different decisions because your context is bigger. You make more informed decisions, enlightened decisions and so forth. Hence psychic readings turn out to be "in-accurate" for you.
Actually it is not that they are inaccurate, you've been growing so your future potential outcomes keep changing so how can anyone read something that keeps changing? The reading was accurate at the point of reading. Get it?
Now, let's look at the dangers..
I personally believe that although there is a spiritual link between the channeler/medium and the "higher being", a lot still depends on the spiritual strength of the channeler/medium. It is not impossible for that link to be broken and "usurped" by dark forces and hence forth the channeler/medium become an agent for dark forces and their agenda. And if the channeler/medium is not spiritually strong, he/she cannot stop that break, nor can they tell that a break (or usurpation) has occurred.
When such an event happens, then it falls on you as the inquirer to be able to discern between good advice from bad advice. Usually it is quite obvious.
Say for example: in the past, the advice has been to do charity or even if it is to do with business and making money, it never hurts anyone. Suddenly the tune changes to advices to do the contrary, then it is quite obvious to you as the inquirer that this channeler/medium has been usurped and no longer with the light. However, this would depend on your ability to discern. But most of us would have in built intuition (our guardian angels as some would call it) that would give hints or that nagging feeling that it ain't right anymore. :-)
Now, some people would say we should avoid going to channelers/mediums etc in the first place. Well, I prefer to say, it depends. Sometimes, going to one does help especially when there are a lot of ambiguity on which road to take. However, I must add a caveat. I would only go to one whom I know for sure to be with the Light.

The Darth Vader within us all
Angels and Demons |
Someone once said to me that in each of us is the capacity for the
greatest compassion and at the same time, the capacity for the greatest evil.
For
most of us ordinary folks, we like to think of ourselves as the "Good
guys". I mean, lets face it, nobody, in his/her right frame of mind, would
call themselves the "Bad guys".
However, all of us, at some point in
our life have committed "bad" guy things like back-stab someone; get
revenge; scratch someone's car... the list goes on. Let's just not pretend.
And
we'll justify it... they back-stabbed me first; the bitch wronged me; he almost
caused me to have an accident... bla bla bla. We can always justify our
actions. In fact, we only need one excuse why our actions are justified despite
a million and one reasons why we should not. And if all else fails, we fall
back on the ultimate defense, "I'm only human".
Now... this is us
ordinary folks.
Anakin walking with Vader's shadow in the background |
Despite doing all these, we still consider ourselves the good
guys. By the way, so does our victim/antagonist. They also call themselves the good guys.
But let's now take this to another
level.
If this is true for us, wouldn't it also be true for Mother
Teresa? Many people will say "oh no, not Mother Teresa... She's a
saint..." bla bla bla.
I beg to differ. I'm going to go as far as
saying even Christ, Buddha and all the other Messiahs and Avatars and Prophets
have that same capacity within them i.e. the capacity for the greatest compassion and evil both at the same time.
The difference between them and us is that they have consciously chosen the light (or some call it the "higher") instead of darkness (or some call it the "lower").
Yin and Yang |
For us ordinary folks we don't think much about this. Let's face it... if you are "just ordinary", the only thing in your mind would probably be just putting bread on the dinner table and maybe whether your boss is in a good mood or not. The last thing on your mind would be if you are choosing the higher or the lower. Well... there's not much "major" repercussions that your choices is going to create (this is debatable and relative of course) anyway. It's not like our choices in our everyday lives is going to cause WW3 right? Of course, there is always Cause and Effect (or Karma as some would call it) but what I'm saying is, as ordinary folks... really... no big deal. If that guy crosses in front of your car, your middle finger goes up or some profanity finds its way out of your mouth. :-) And after that you don't give much thought to it after the event passes.
On the other hand, IF.. you have certain abilities... like psychic abilities, or magical powers (ability to manipulate energy) etc... its a different thing all together. Because, there will be temptations. Imagine, you are among the few, who have just learnt a new ability. An ability that you suddenly realize can help you get that revenge that has been at the back of your mind for decades. And the beauty of it... "nobody" (so you think) would know you did it. Revenge would be sweet. hahaha. What would you do if you find yourself in that situation?
Would you still choose the light? or would you give in to choosing darkness?
Darth Vader - Anakin Skywalker |
That's why I said in an earlier post that there's like a Darth Vader in each of us. Whether we become like Darth Vader or not would depend on our choices when such events occur to us. We know, in theory (philosophically) that we should choose the Light and we hope to choose the Light.
All of us have that bit of Darth Vader in us. And I believe that as we get closer to knowing our truest nature as spiritual beings, and certain abilities become available to us, we have to "tame" that Darth Vader in us. Well, I don't mean suppression. I mean, we accept who we are and the "not so high" choices that we are being tempted to make (e.g. thoughts of revenge etc) and then recognize why we are having those thoughts (e.g. he wronged me etc), then release it once you have embraced the emotions (it looses power when we do that) and then we are then free to make the higher choice. Of course, as we go higher such choices become automatic until more difficult tests comes. :-) Such is the journey of our soul.
This is why I say, in each of us lies the capacity for greatest compassion and at the same time greatest evil. For it is one and the same. It is our choices that would determine whether we go down in history as great compassionate beings or the embodiment of evil.

From The Secret - human transmission tower
You are like a human transmission tower, transmitting a frequency with your thoughts. If you want to change anything in your life, change the frequency by changing your thoughts.
Noah's Ark
The biblical story of Noah's Ark and how a pair of each species of animal was brought onto an Ark to be saved is an interesting story indeed.
But really, is such a feat possible? Let's be realistic here... even if we try to explain it from the perspective of energy, it still bogles the mind.
On the other hand, instead let's consider another possibility...
Well, we know the bible and other religious and spiritual scriptures talk in parables. It is human-kind that like to interprete it in its literal meaning. And the powers to be at that point of time, had to elevate and inject a bit of mysticism into the whole thing and voila... after 2000 years of misinterpretations... here we have what we have. sigh...
So, what possibility are we considering here?
Firstly, it is possible to store DNA information and it definitely requires a whole lot less space. But hold on, DNA wasn't discovered until 1869.
Yes that's true... for humanity anyway at least. But what if there were other powers at work?
There are theories around that the "powers" capable of such DNA bank at that point in time could be Extra Terrestrials (ET). And really.. If you put ET into the equation, it sorts of make sense don't you think so.
After all... what makes us humans think that we're the only talking animals in the universe. And to make it more interesting, what we call God could actually be a group(s) of ETs out on a science experiment. Now what movie was that that Jim Carrey played a man whose whole life was a movie for every other human? Ah... Truman Show.
So.. ok .. if ET is in the equation, what was he doing collecting all these DNA? Well... let's say (let's let our imagination run wild here), they were at the brink of giving up on us as a race and so they were considering starting a new somewhere else. That's good enough reason to collect DNAs don't you think so?
Fruit for thought huh? We should make a movie out of it, yes... :-)
From The Secret - secret to the perfect body
If you feel bad about your body, that is a powerful feeling, and you will continue to attract feeling bad about your body. You will never change your body if you are critical of it and find fault with it, and in fact you will attract more weight to you. Praise and bless every square inch of your body. Think about all the perfect things about you. As you think perfect thoughts, as you feel good about you, you are on the frequency of your perfect weight, and you are summoning perfection.

From The Secret - the Creative Process
The Creative Process helps you create what you want in three simple steps: ask, believe, and receive. Asking the Universe for what you want is your opportunity to get clear about what you want. As you get clear in your mind, you have asked. Believing involves acting, speaking, and thinking as though you have already received what you've asked for. When you emit the frequency of having received it, the law of attraction moves people, events and circumstances for you to receive. Receiving involves feeling the way you will feel once your desire has manifested. Feeling good now puts you on the frequency of what you want.

From The Secret - give heart felt thanks for your day
Every night before you fall asleep, give heartfelt thanks for the wonderful day you just had (no matter what kind of day you had). Think about the next day, and intend that it is going to be wonderful. Intend that it is going to be the best day of your life. Intend that it is going to be filled with love and joy. Intend that all good is coming to you and everything is going to flow perfectly, etc. Then when you wake in the morning, BEFORE you get out of bed, again declare your intentions for the day and give deep thanks as though you have received them all. As you do this, you will begin to create your life deliberately, and you will experience firsthand the power that is within you to create the life you want.

From The Secret - Giving Gratitude
Joe Sugarman, a wonderful man and successful entrepreneur, watched the film The Secret and contacted me. He told me his favorite part was the gratitude process, and that his use of gratitude had contributed to all he had achieved in his life. With all the success Joe has attracted to himself, he continues to use gratitude every day, even for the smallest things. When he gets a parking space he always says and feels, "Thank you." Joe knows the power of gratitude and all it has brought to him, and so gratitude is his way of life.
Medical Cadeceus - The interconnectivity between medical practice, DNA, and the energy body
Rod of Asclepius |
I wonder how many of us realize that the secrets to our true nature have been interwoven into our everyday lifes in forms that would even surprise the most open minded of us all.
Cadeceus |
While some would say the Cadeceus is the symbol of trickery. I beg to defer. It's also a symbol of Alchemy. And Alchemy is a practice of protoscience that has contributed to the development of modern chemistry and medicine also. However, the truth about Alchemy is that it has to do with spirituality.
I would say it is no accident that modern medicine ended up with the Cadeceus as their symbol and not the Rod of Asclepius. The Rod of Asclepius represents only half of the Cadeceus, therefore it is incomplete. As you will see why later (I'll try to explain).
Ida Pingala & Sushumna |
Observe the Cadeceus, it is a double helix of serpents, spiralling from the bottom of the staff to the top. The number of times it entwines is between 5 to 6 (of course this is debatable).
Our bodies comprises many chakras of which there are 11 major chakras (depending on your esoteric school) and millions of minor chakras. These are special points where our chi connects the various energy flows in our spiritual body. The channels in which our chi flows are called nadis (channels for the flow of consciousness)
Cadeceus & DNA double helix |
So as you can see from the picture above, the Pingala is the one carrying prana. Prana is life force. Hence the Rod of Asclepius's "side" of the Cadeceus. No coincidence here. And it gets more intriguing (well, not for me but for some).
Our DNA is also a double helix. It was first discovered by the Swiss physician Friedrich Miescher in the late 1860s. Our DNA contains all our genetic information that make us who we are... physically. Is it an accident that the DNA is a double helix just like the way our inner life force (Chi, prana) flows?
I think not. Its the way we are made. In fact, in the Arhatic Dhyan meditation, practitioners who are sensitive to the flow of energies have reported that during their meditation they could feel the energy flowing from the base of their spine (Basic chakra) in a spiralling manner, up their spine (sushumna) to the top of their head(crown chakra).
To make it even more intriguing, it is even represented in the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. However, unfortunately, having left the esoteric school for some time now (though I now have urges to return), I cannot recall for sure how this is intertwined. However, I have included here a picture I gathered from the internet to show this. Note that the actual representation is easier to understand. I'll try to obtain one (no promises though).
Cadeceus & The Tree of Life |
Well... anyway... it is forseen that one day, as Humanity's collective consciousness grow to the stage when we begin to realize what we can do as spiritual beings, the masses would begin to use energy in our own healing. Right now, today, already there are a growing awareness amongst people that complementary therapy aka eastern traditional healing modalities (which are non-intrusive and serves to address the root cause of dis-eases) serves as a viable alternative to western medicinal practices (which are surpressive and intrusive). Researchers are also unraveling the secrets of our body and the link with quantum physics. These I believe would collectively serve to elevate the healing arts (both eastern and western). And I certainly look forward to the day when hospitals as we know it become wholistic healing centers for all sorts of healing sciences.
And... back to the start of this article... this is just one of the secrets to our true nature that have been interwoven into our everyday lifes in forms that we have taken for granted and never gave much thought to.

What is a Light Worker?
This is taken from the Internet:
Lightworker (noun);Any being dedicated to the cultivation of inner presence and the elevation of awareness in self and other selves. This being is called a lightworker and is an evolutionary step toward a state of "LightBeing"
What's happening in the world?
There is an awakening happening all around the world. And that awakening involves you and every being that exists on our lovely home planet, mother earth. We are truly entering a renaissance of spiritual evolution, an evolutionary process that proceeds and transcends the physical. Our wisdom stems from coming to understand how little we conceptually know about life, god, the universe and everything, and embracing the fundamental truth of inherent divinity within all life.
What is a Lightworker?
Everyone is a Lightworker whether they know it at all. Just as truth is truth whether anyone knows it or not. The real question arises then, "Am I aware of who I am?" Behind all labels, behind all self created illusions of mind and ego, or social dogmas and masks, there lies the truth, the answer to that question. Just as the Sun shines bright both day and night, it is only the movement of the planet and clouds that obscure it from view. But the sun is always shining. A Lightworker is awake to this truth, aware of their true presence and living in accordance with the divine plan. All beings that exist are a channel between eternal, formless heaven and the temporary world of form and illusion, earth. Why am I here? One does not always need to consciously realize the answer to this question, but living your life purpose is achievable in every moment, right now. Sit in peaceful contemplation, in pure awareness. Allow yourself to be present in every moment and feel within the depths of your heart for your inner truth, your guidance. The work is easy and the burden is light. Your true essence of being is so vast, it is beyond any concept, any word, thought or form. A Lightworker then is any being, who is aware of their true non-dual nature, their eternal "I Am" Presence and acting in accordance with it. A Lightworker is active in enlightenment, or in cultivating enlightenment.
What is Lightworking?
Just as the sun rises each morning, to shine its light into the world, so it is with lightworking. To walk upon the face of the planet lightly, light in spirit and bearing, and shine love, happiness, tranquillity and peace into the world. To calm the inner turmoil, to just be, and be at one with who you truly are, to love and honour life as an expression of divinity, to love all that is, that power some call god, and of course to love one and other unconditionally. In being true to the divine presense within all beings, and releasing all false thought forms, all masks and illusions, is the essence of lightworking. In this lightworking emanates love, happiness, joy, faith, hope and inspiration into the inner and outer world. This not only helps to awaken the lightworker, but also to awaken others to their own natural state. What can be called enlightenment, what may be called ascension. A Lightworkers divine mission then comes to life, as one enters the flow of creation and maintains the presence of awareness without being caught up in the turmoil of the creation. This is done in the service of all. For all beings (self included), all the time.
What does a Lightworker do?
All life exists for a sacred purpose. A Lightworker, that is a being, aware of their true presence, their inner awareness and non-dual nature then becomes a vehicle for divine activation. This role is a very simple and a natural one. When the illusionary self is dissolved into the true sense of being, the IAM presence, a being begins to shine and resonate this mandala field of pure state bliss. The transition starts from Lightworker to Light Being. This activation can occur anywhere, in any situation, in all places, roles and demographics, from the mother at home to the soldier in the military, even in the depths of the darkest regions of human nature this blossoming occurs. It can be slow, or instant. It has been this way for eternity. For all the people, all the time. All for one and one for all. This is the effortless state of being, devoid of all grasping, all seeking. This is existence under a blue sky, and bright sunshine, exposing all to the life giving energies of our divine source.
What is the Light Energy?
Light Energy has many names. Some names include, the oriental Chi, Yin and Yang, the Indian Prana, and the Greek Aether. The light Energy pervades all. It encompasses all things. It is of the source, but not the source. It is the flow itself. It is the essence of all things. The primordial essence of spirit before it manifest into form. It is from where all things emanate, and all things return. It is the stuff of stars and the stuff of souls. We see it, and experience it in this material world as both form/matter and energy vibration. We experience it as thought and emotions. All these things are waves on the primordial ocean, resonating in various frequencies. All energy is frequency, and all frequency is harmony. Everything before you now is connected through frequency. The sounds you hear.. Do Re MI Fa So La Ti DO.. to the light you see.. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Magenta, Violet, RED, winding its way up through the frequencies. Even the course elements of matter are connected to this harmony H,He,Li,Be,B,C,N. Each is the same, just operating on a different frequency, at a different harmonic. All is Light.. All is Energy. And its master is divine consciousness. We are constantly, directing spirit into form, thought, actions and endeavours. The question arises. "From what level of consciousness to I create?" This will determine the results and experiences of life. Each being, operates in various levels of consciousness. Yet when creation emanates from the source itself, free from resistance and obstruction, divine will manifests. Heaven is made manifest on earth. The cards are stacked for growth and learning. We will be guided by angels or pushed by demons.
Where do I start?
Being a Lightworker is both very easy and very hard. How hard is it to be the real you? Are you prepared to let go of everything? Think of who you will be when all form and material life is gone. That is the real you. Are you prepared to forgive and release all? There is nothing you must do, it's all about what you no longer need to do. To stop hiding, to face the true awesome reality of who and what you are, free from all illusions. Are you a thinking, breathing, centered person? Do you control your ego, or does your ego control you? Do you live in a state of awareness or reaction? Where are you looking for your answers? Within or without? These are all serious questions we must contemplate and come to accept for ourselves.. To "Know Thy Self" beyond mind, beyond ego, beyond words is the first and only step.
Is there anything else I can do?
Once the flow of creation is embraced, great energy is released, life becomes the adventure it truly was meant to be. What needs to be done, will present itself in every moment. All that needs to be accomplished, resolved and understood, will be. Be present, be still within the vortex of creation, in humble awe. We are all children of the one source, we are all babes. Take time out, take it easy, awaken and reconnect within yourself at your own pace. Take nothing personaly. Meditation, practicing awareness, observing your thoughts and mind flow are all stages of re-awakening to your true enlightened nature. Allow it to happen just as a flower opens itself to the sunshine each day, so too will you blossom when the time is right. Remember, in this creative experience, this world of perpetual change and form, everything is a perfect manifestation in relation to the consciousness that is creating it. The world is a mirror. Every moment brings with it a perfect experience that is tailored by you, for you. Learn from it. For many, this can be a hard truth to face.
Are Lightworkers religious?
Lightworkers are not bound by any religion or ideology. If you are part of a religious organization then so be it. That's just perfect for you. But in this world of form, change is inevitable. Lightworkers are not a religious ideology. There is a vast difference between spirituality and religion. Many religions formed to assist the process of re-awakening in practitioners and adherents. They can all point the way, but only serve as tools and methods. The tools used to build the house, are not the house.
What about God?
There is no concept that can define God. That power some call God is the source of all. It is the over arching divine consciousness that guides and directs all life in form and non form. We know God by knowing our true selves. We do not need to consciously understand, rationalize or define God for God to be real. Like us, God Just IS. We accept there is great power in who we are, and the processes of how we each came to be. Yet each is free to formulate their own interpretation of what that power is, yet to do so may prove futile. HOwever we can come to understand aspects of God. LIke the fact that God pervades each and everyone of us, exists both within us, around us and is intricately connected to us. God works, with us and through us and for that we honor and love God through divine service and existing in a state of least resistance to God. We honor the process and honor our own role within it. To see through the illusionary nature of form and see clearly each and every beings, non dual nature. To see the God aspect in each other, and to love God.
What about Ascended Masters, Messiahs & Prophets?
Each are free to follow their inspirational hero's and teachers throughout history. And each should never fear to question, rationalize, or reason. But realize the ever changing nature of thought. Go within to the source for guidance. Believe what you will, but do so in deep consultation with the inner master. In Spiritual teachings you will surely find wisdom, in your questions you will find reason, and in your doubts, you will find learning and growth. But in awareness you will find the only perspective that truly matters.

The origin of The Secret
Religions, such as Hinduism, Hermetic traditions, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and civilizations, such as the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, delivered the Secret, the law of attraction, through their writings and stories. Recorded throughout the ages in all its forms, the law can be found in ancient writings through all the centuries. It was recorded in stone in 3000BC. Even though some coveted this knowledge, and indeed they did, it has always been there for anyone to discover. The law began at the beginning of time. It has always been and will always be.
