F.: If you do not see the True Love evidenced in the last e-mail yesterday, then you are invited to follow the “path” to You. Until then, the "you" will see the "world" through your eyes rather than through the eyes of that writer or through My eyes. Follow the "path" to Realization and then You will know (A) that You have always been That Which You Seek and that (B) You have always been “where” you would go.
Now, what of this notion of “trust” when you are told to “question all.” Does one part of the message contradict another part of the message in that regard? No. First, any Realized teacher is completely open to being questioned. At some point, though, what was described as a “certainly of this trust” must happen if the seeker is to complete the “journey.”
When questioning comes form a seeker truly seeking, it is discussed. When it comes from a persona with a hidden agenda, the discussion will end until the readiness manifests.
As shared with the writer of the last e-mail yesterday, the requirement for Realization to happen is a crossing of paths with the pure consciousness that, when heard, triggers an internal resonance deep within the listener. That resonance is the timbre of the inner guru or the inner resource that—even as it might not yet know itSelf—nevertheless is “felt.”
It might be likened to that first “kick” that a pregnant woman feels. It was exactly like that with “floyd” and “maharaj.” The path with Maharaj was crossed. The transcripts were read.
There was a “kick”; I felt some sort of reverberation as consciousness spoke and the words of that purified energy began entering into Me; yet the teachings were not understood, presented as they were in no particular order that indicated the way “I” came in and therefore the way “I” had to go back out.
Then, with the understanding of the exact order that came via a vision, the exact steps were revealed. Maharaj said “…I trusted my Guru. What he told me to do, I did.” I trusted Maharaj the first time the words of that speck were received; yet even with that trust, clarity did not come. Further explanation was required.
Exchanges have taken place with the writer of yesterday's last e-mail for some time. In between, the pointers offered have been steadfastly taken into contemplation. Yet at no time was that trust misperceived here as “a trusting of floyd.”
What she had been trusting all along was that inner guru, that inner resource, which (1) was initially nudged at times in an effort to begin the process of raising it from its repose;
which (2) may have felt kicked at times when “tougher Love” was offered via pointers on the site; and which (3) was finally shaken in order to stimulate it into awakening fully once it finally began to be aroused from its too-long sleep.
The result of all of that can be reviewed in some of the words that were written:
*consistent kindness
*gentleness
*no strangers any longer
*a recognition of MySelf everywhere
*complete certainty
*fundamental stability, and…
*My presence which is nothing more than Her presence as well
Now, "she" can never again be “alone.” The Am-ness can, but THAT cannot. The same can happen with “you.” If what is manifesting via that speck of awareness is not also manifesting via the speck that You Are…if that inner guru has not been awakened from it slumber…then everything on that list awaits.
The writer studied the seven steps and contemplated them. That which comes via completing all seven of those steps is available to all seekers that would also know the joy of consistent kindness; gentleness; a stranger-less existence; recognition of What You Truly Are;
complete certainty rather than doubt and confusion; fundamental stability during the relative existence; and complete and total presence…to the moment…to the Self…to the natural state…to freedom…to happiness (whether the life events are so-called ‘good’ or ‘bad’).
For many seekers, the road has been long…far too long. For many, the misery has been far too severe; for many, nothing was done that deserved anything close to the levels of suffering that have been heaped upon them by blocked specks of consciousness throughout this relative existence.
I say to you (and to You) that I—and every Realized speck of pure awareness—cares enough about You to point you to a “path” that is far less arduous than the road you have traveled. I say to you and to You that the suffering and the misery can be transcended.
I say to you and to You that freedom and peace and happiness and joy are not mere possibilities but can truly manifest—as shown via the sharing of certain specks above—it you would but take the seven steps which lead back to the You that “they” have blocked You from knowing.
You came in with no say-so or choice whatsoever. You can now have a say, a choice. You can go out and abide as that natural state that is characterized by freedom and peace and happiness and joy.
Many seekers have lived a relative existence that exceeds in misery any “hell” that the dogmatic think is real. In that regard, I say to you, “To hell with this existence. Be done with it once and for all, even as it continues.
“Detach from any lingering fondness for this consciousness and abide as the awareness that is not aware of…NOW. Then only can the joy come and be known.” Please enter the silence of contemplation. (To be continued)
