Have We Progressed?

Dear Friends  ~

We know we are making personal progress when we can look back at our reactions during our day and see how differently we handle the challenges we face each day.

We are not the same as we were last year, last month or even last week. There is definite change in how we make choices, how we respond to situations, and even how we see our fellow brothers and sisters, whether known or not known to us!        "Strangers are only friends we haven't met yet."

We don't have to assess ourselves all day, but when sitting in quiet contemplation perhaps at the end of the day, our minds quiet and restful, we can take a look and see how we handled ourselves when out among people. We are not trying to be perfect, just being aware and recognizing the changes that have occurred within.

Although we are in Oneness with the All on a much higher level of existence, it is still an 'individual' journey, one we undertook knowingly when we incarnated. This last existence in third dimensional reality would not be an easy one by any means, so if we are feeling fear still within, just remember that we consciously chose to be here. Obviously our Self who decided to embark on this journey was confident that we could do this! So, time to connect again to that Self who knows us better than our Earth-Self who is going through many adverse experiences, situations.

Your Inner Love

                         *~*   Throughout your whole earthly life, there is a spiritual realm within,  *~*
                                         ~    that has always loved you........ Unconditionally.   ~


                  We as humans are blessed to experience an earthly existence in a world where many
                  opportunities come our way to bring out that hidden realm. That hidden realm is our
                  Divinity within. Our connection to the Mighty Godself is always within all of Us, but is
                  camouflaged by the outer world and our struggles to survive.

                  The lower animal world is not aware of this inner realm. It is the human that has been given
                  this Blessed opportunity to recognize and embrace its existence.

                  No matter what your social status is in society - rich or poor, able-bodied or disabled, your
                  inner-divinity waits patiently for you to recognize its existence and love for you.

                  Being an infinite source of love, your divinity never judges nor abandons you. The world, as
                  it is now, is presenting all kinds of extreme conditions for humanity. The worst and the best
                  of a person is being displayed daily in the News, and the deepest of evil is now apparent in
                  many war-torn countries. Unfortunately, owing to the nature of journalism, we do not get to
                  hear often enough of the many acts of selflessness and gallantry by those who are saving
                  and also, rebuilding lives.

                  When One is ready or makes that choice to look deep within and connects with their Divinity,
                   it is a feeling of "coming Home."  Not just coming home to a material house, but a home
                  where we find our True Self, our higher aspect of Self. It is within all of humanity.

                  Not all souls are in a place where they have that opportunity to connect within. For those of
                  us who are, it will be a homecoming like no other. Connecting with the Divinity of our Self is
                  connecting us directly to the Source of All. All information we need for our journey, plus the
                  guidance to follow it through, is all there within.

                 We can still live in the outer-world while being connected to our Divinity. Life takes on a new
                 and higher meaning, and it also connects us more with the people we interact with in our day.
                 We look at Nature and know its true roots.

                  How beautiful life becomes..........  when living in Awareness and Divine Love.

Deep-Seated Emotions/Old Patterns of Behavior

Hi Every-One ~

There is something very revealing about spending time on One's own. For one thing, if you are searching for freedom from the past and all of the layers of what was impressed upon you by family, friends, colleagues, etc., spending time alone is, I think, the best therapy.

This subject of ' layers from the past ' came to my awareness very recently. When something unexpected pops up and wants us to take notice, it usually means it needs our attention, as it may have been holding us back from going forward. The layers I am speaking of are concepts of what others think about us that our subconscious has grabbed onto and stayed with us, influencing how we think about ourselves, what actions we take in life, and if we have set up a pattern of repetitive behavior.

As far as I am concerned, One does not need a therapist to talk these matters out. Once you have realized that you may be carrying around a repeated pattern of behavior, the solution is to be very watchful each day. Once the awareness has been noted in your consciousness, it will become a trigger and alert you when the pattern starts to influence your daily decisions. These tendencies to repeat past mistakes, over and over again, can be very ingrained. One must have strong fortitude in dealing with and accepting that change is very necessary in order to break these cycles.

I believe this subject is very important as we begin to build our 'new homes.' Building bricks that just don't fit into a higher dimension will always turn out to be stumbling blocks! We may find that we keep returning to the old ways of thinking and behaving every time we try to move forward. What is holding me back? Why do I feel like I am walking through concrete? Once the awareness takes hold and the old behavior rectified, you will be amazed how much clearing will be felt afterwards. It is like another portal has been opened, and the consciousness goes back to expanding instead of retracting.

Like a breath of fresh air...............spontaneity and joy returns.

Namaste and Blessings  ~

A Gentle Look at Life

                    **  Our hearts become weak if we don't exercise them with the energy of Love.  **
                           Carrying Love within our Hearts for All who we come across in our day is
                                             emitting a beautiful radiance that reaches far and wide.
                                                   It is another way of placing more healing energy
                                                                        into this world.

 

       **    There is so much noise in this busy world of ours.   **

                                      We can Stay in touch with our inner-world by practicing15 mins.
                                  of silence a few times a day, preferably in a place that promotes calm
                                                              and has good energy like nature.
                                               Notice the peaceful and soothing blue pond above......
                                                   Like taking a visit to the quietude of your Soul.

 

  

                          **  A rainbow of colours invigorates the senses and brings joy to the weary.  **
                                  A burst of colour exploding and permeating your Being with freshness
                                                            and sparkle that enlivens the Psyche.

                                **  A person with a positive outlook will not only benefit themselves,   **
                                      but are a Blessing in disguise as they go through their day spreading
                                                                this vibrant energy to one and all.

                                **  Turn your life around by making what appears to be a disaster,  **
                           the turning point in your life.  Many "disasters" have turned out to be a catalyst
                                         for a better and different path to explore, bringing new insights
                                                           and opportunities to fulfill your needs.

                                      **   Animals are God's way of increasing Love in this World.   **
                                            Their love and devotion to their human family is priceless,
                                                      giving healing energy to the lonely and elderly
                                                                 and filling the void in their life.

 

                             **   We are not striving for Perfection when we do the inner-journey.   **
                                              Self-Realization opens us to the realization of Oneness
                                                                 With our God and with the All.
                                                  If we do find Perfection on that sacred journey,
                                                    then we have found our True Divine Essence.

                                                      ~  Above quotes all written by Tara  ~
                                         Wishing all readers a happy and healthy and peaceful July.

Another Chapter Begins

Hello Dear Friends  ~

Sharing how I see things from my own perspective on this beautiful sunshiney day here in Australia.   It appears another door has been opened to again flood earth and all upon her with Divine Light and Love from higher realms.  I don't name dimensions anymore, as what one feels may not be what another feels, it all depends once again on how much of this Light you can take into yourself to change your own outlook.  
The ascension workers continue working quietly every day on aspects of life that need to be experienced and then transmuted.   Last night, Saturday, was the first glimpse of a whole new chapter in our awakening and integrating higher light and love.   This of course impacts tremendously on our everyday life, but living in the Now, I would not 'forecast' on what, where or why things will develop.  We are creating our lives in each moment in our own time. 

It is divine energy that drives this universe forward and therefore drives our lives as well.   Being in the physical world has shrouded this truth for many who are still steeped within it.   Since human life began on this planet, there has always been souls incarnating from different realms to assist in the frequencies of the planet.   It 'appeared' that we were all plodding along from apes developing into humans, but long before that the earth had highly advanced souls coming and going.  There was a tremendous amount of spiritual energy then but apparently they got attached to the physical world after a while, hence the personal battles to get back to that connection with our divinity within.

One must remember that not all things that are happening with the bringing in of the Golden Age are found on the computer.  When I read the channelings and the comments it is very obvious that over the years folks have formed their own opinions of who the Galactics and Ascended Masters are and what their "Agenda" is !    There are two types of ascension:  one is the internet created one, the other is the real one which goes on regardless of what gets posted on any internet website.   It's a business, sadly, for many channels, but not for all...........there ARE the genuine ones who do have contact with angelic beings and some ascended masters and generously share their messages.

Anyway, today is glorious and I am off to enjoy it with my two divine dogs.  Enjoy your weekend and that extra beautiful light and energy surrounding all of us now.

Love and blessings, Tara *~~

What Are We Here For?

                            ~     WE ARE HERE TO REALIZE WHO WE REALLY ARE      ~

After several decades of living this earthly existence, it became obvious to me that I came here to be who I really am. That is my story. Every soul will have or not have an inkling why they are here and what is the purpose of their life.

We are born into a ready-made society. We are born into an existence that dictates striving to survive. From our first breath to our last, we are striving to survive.

Depending on how aware we are when old enough to think about our life, most people live the life of action and reaction.........their whole life. And we have all been through that stage, but there comes a time when the daily 'ordinary' suddenly reaches a peak and a cry within begins to be heard. There has got to be more to life than this!

For the wealthy, this can mean a new car or a holiday abroad, although I shouldn't paint all wealthy people with the same brush, should I? Some people react by seeking a whole new way of life, like I have seen in my area over a few decades, from time to time. This whole new way of life has been to sell up and move to a more natural way of living, conducive to freedom from the hustle and bustle of city life and mundane jobs. Yes, many times the folks around here move a few hours west and head to the high country!

They feel a calling to go higher.......and raise their children on acreage with some animals and home-grown vegetables and fruit. The land west of here has been a calling for young and old for decades and even Hubby and I looked far and wide a few decades ago to see what was offering. And we were right, the land sellers told us that folks from the coastal towns and cities were selling up and moving inland, grabbing their acreage while the prices were cheap. And they were, too.

It makes me wonder what is within us that drives us to seek a life of freedom - communing with nature and talking to the trees. It wasn't until we bought some acreage ourselves and spent weekends there that we found out. Being aware of our spiritual selves, we couldn't help but notice how our auras expanded quite considerably when we were in the expanse of nature. We became much more alive and in tune with firstly the trees, which really surprised me when I started communicating with a clump of trees!  Felt totally normal up there, no one to stare and ask if i was alright ! The trees just loved to have us there, which is nice to know !
With a widely expanded aura, your spiritual self takes over. Life is a whole lot more meaningful when awareness is heightened. For one thing, answers come quickly, effortlessly. You see things through the eyes of your soul. You are at one with your soul. The 3D way of life where we were always striving to survive seems a very long way off, and in fact, doesn't even enter the headspace. Communication with higher vibration lightbeings is also easier, and utterly amazing. We can find out more when up there on the land, and sometimes connect with friends or family who have passed-over.

Nature is our spiritual family.
 Gently guiding us back to reunite with it. When people feel that deep inner urge to pack up and move back to nature, it is like getting out of an artificial way of living and back to our roots. On the practical side of things, the only drawback in some areas is lack of services and paid work. If you choose your location carefully, doing your homework before moving, it may save future problems.

I guess I could finish up by saying - the reason we are here is to follow the natural calling of our soul.
That inner voice never lies!

The Inner Body

Hi Everyone  ~  My computer's been playing up and can only get online when I can to share articles.  This is an excerpt from The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, P.92  ~  The Inner Body.

The body that you can see and touch cannot take you into Being.  But that visible and tangible body is only an outer shell, or rather a limited and distorted perception of a deeper reality.  In your natural state of connectedness with Being, this deeper reality can be felt every moment as the invisible inner body, the animating presence within you.  So to "inhabit the body" is to feel the body from within, to feel the life inside the body and thereby come to know that you are beyond the outer form.

But that is only the beginning of an inward journey that will take you ever more deeply into a realm of great stillness and peace, yet also of great power and vibrant life.  At first, you may only get fleeting glimpses of it, but through them you will begin to realize that you are not just a meaningless fragment in an alien universe, briefly suspended between birth and death, allowed a few short-lived pleasures followed by pain and ultimate annihilation.   Underneath your outer form, you are connected with something so vast, so immeasurable and sacred, that it cannot be conceived or spoken of  -  yet I am speaking of it now.  I am speaking of it not to give you something to believe in but to show you how you can know it for yourself.

You are cut off from Being as long as your mind takes up all your attention.  When this happens  -  and it happens continuously for most people  -  you are not in your body.  The mind absorbs all your consciousness and transforms it into mind stuff.  You cannot stop thinking.  Compulsive thinking has become a collective disease.  Your whole sense of who you are in then derived from mind activity.  Your identity, as it is no longer rooted in Being, becomes a vulnerable and ever-needy mental construct, which creates fear as the predominant underlying emotion.  The one thing that truly matters is then missing from your life: awareness of your deeper self  -  your invisible and indestructible reality.

To become conscious of Being, you need to reclaim consciousness from the mind.  This is one of the most essential tasks on your spiritual journey.  It will free vast amounts of consciousness that previously had been trapped in useless and compulsive thinking.  A very effective way of doing this is simply to take the focus of your attention away from thinking and direct it into the body, where Being can be felt in the first instance as the invisible energy field that gives life to what you perceive as the physical body.

                                     CONNECTING  WITH  THE  INNER  BODY

Please try it now.  You may find it helpful to close your eyes for this practice.  Later on, when "being in the body" has become natural and easy, this will no longer be necessary.  Direct your attention into the body.  Feel it from within.  Is it alive?  Is there life in your hands, arms, legs, and feet  -  in your abdomen, your chest?  Can you feel the subtle energy field that pervades the entire body and gives vibrant life to every organ and every cell?  Can you feel it simultaneously in all parts of the body as a single field of energy?  Keep focusing on the feeling of your inner body for a few moments.  Do not start to think about it.  Feel it.  The more attention you give it, the clearer and stronger this feeling will become.  It will feel as if every cell is becoming alive, and if you have a strong visual sense, you may get an image of your body becoming luminous.  Although such an image can help you temporarily, pay more attention to the feeling than to any image that may arise.  An image, no matter how beautiful or powerful, is already defined in form, so there is less scope for penetrating more deeply.

The feeling of your inner body is formless, limitless, and unfathomable.  You can always go into it more deeply.  If you cannot feel very much as this stage, pay attention to whatever you CAN feel.  Perhaps there is just a slight tingling in your hands or feet.  That's good enough for the moment.  Just focus on the feeling.  Your body is coming alive.  Later, we will practice some more.  Please open your eyes now, but keep some attention in the inner energy field of the body even as you look around the room.  The inner body lies at the threshold between your form identity and your essence identity, your true nature.  Never lose touch with it.
(shared up to P.94)  Namaste and blessings to all, Tara.
