SPIRITUAL ILLUMINATION enables us to discern the spiritual reality where the human concept appears to be. Spiritual sense discerns the reality of that which is appearing as concept. The development of spiritual consciousness begins with our first realization that what we are beholding through the senses of sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell is not the reality of things. Disregarding appearances entirely, the first ray of spiritual illumination brings us hints of the divine, the eternal and immortal. This in turn makes the appearance even less real to us, thereby admitting even greater illumination. Our progress Spiritward is in proportion to the illumination which enables us to behold more and more of Reality. Because the human scene is entirely a misconception through misperception, any thought of helping, healing, correcting, or changing the material picture must be relinquished in order that we may see the ever-present Reality.

Similar Scriptures various countries
■ HINDU SCRIPTURE Theirs was the fulness of heaven and earth; the more that they gave to others, the more they had.
■ CHINESE SCRIPTURE And give unto him who is of kin to you, his due, and also unto the poor, and the traveller. And what good ye have sent before your souls, ye shall find it with God.
■ TURKISH SCRIPTURE It is more blessed to give than to receive. . . . Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
■ THE BIBLE As we realize our unity, or oneness, with all creation, we become more loving, gentle, patient, and understanding. Then only are we fulfilling the great teaching, “Love thy neighbor as thyself,” and then only are we glimpsing the kingdom of God, the temple “not made with hands” – the man and universe of God’s creating. It is this spiritual man, the man of God’s creating, who has been given dominion over all the earth.
Maimonides [JSG]
If you say that God is good, loving, great, all-powerful, you are saying no more than “GOD IS”.
The very word “God” means infinity, love, life, omnipresence, omnipotence.
So why say anything more than “God is”?
The acknowledgement that God is includes all else …
and it saves you from making the mistake
of including a few things that God isn’t!
~Maimonides, 11th cent. Hebrew philosopher
No details please!
If you want help
in overcoming a problem,
whether physical, financial,
social, etc.
it is so important that you
omit all the details.
The whole point metaphysically
is to un-see the lie –
the very lie that you’re wanting
to describe and flesh out:
Don’t go there – it’s sabotage!
Let God into the picture instead.
God is where you should have started.
God is where you should have stayed.
Being IN God (as everyone is)
IS instead of whatsoever claim
you thought there was.
No details – not even your name –
is needed, or helpful in any way.
The healer is on your side, but
on whose side are you?
I Am all that I Am
I AM
I AM LIGHT
I AM ALL THAT I AM
I AM ALL THAT I AM IN THE ALL THAT IS
IN FULL FAITH
I SURRENDER
I TRUST
THOUGHT DIVINE
MANIFESTED….
IN CHRIST LIGHT
WE ARE ONE IN THE UNITY OF CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS.

MEMES – 6
One thing Joel drove home for me big time yesterday is to turn my consciousness directly to God for
FRESH INSPIRATION EVERYDAY.
Instead of praying to some CONCEPT of God (Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Mohamedan, Buddhist, etc)
open our awareness of ONEness
The sun naturally sends out its warmth & light asking for no reward.
The rain as well, no thanks required.
God functions similarly
Stop everything. Don’t make another move.
Everything wants to go.
Release your hold.
Robert Lindsey
” OPEN OUT A WAY . . .
FOR THE HIDDEN SPLENDOR [of God]
TO ESCAPE . ”
(Robert Browning)
As a child I enjoyed juxtaposing synonyms of God and pondering:
God = Life, Life=Love, Love=Truth, Truth=Spirit, Spirit=Soul,
etc.
We err terribly when we “go to God for healing”!
Where do we go TO? From where did we COME?
God simply IS All there is
INSTEAD !!!
The kingdom of God is Spirit.
The kingdom of God is the Christ.
The kingdom of God is God.
All within you now!
Prayer is about getting very, very quiet within and hearing God in our Soul minister to us about what is really going on instead.
At times it may seem difficult to contact God owing to investment in worldly thinking.
But persistence will establish prayer mode.
When Christ dawns in individual consciousness the personal sense of self diminishes.
This Christ becomes our real being.

Gaining an awareness of God does not produce harmony.
God’s presence is the harmony.

(experiencing) eternal life?
“This is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God.”
Hey guys! You still asking Him for advice, guidance, etc?
LET GOD LIVE YOUR LIFE – AS YOU !!!
Hint: it’s YOUR real LIFE !!
ARE YOU UNHAPPY ? UNHEALTHY ? UNFULFILLED ?
That is NOT okay with God.
The awakening comes when you discover spiritual living!
God is not in realm or reach of mind or thoughts.
You must transcend mind & thought in order to reach God.
#ThisChangesEverything
Every action of the organs & every function of the body are the activity of the Soul appearing as bodily action
#TheTruthThatHeals
Faith in an “unknown God” brings only the harmony of blind belief.
God must be known and understood through the Soul.

There are no laws of matter.
There are only beliefs.
You cannot be affected by a belief unless you believe it!

Take no thought for human gains you might receive
NO THOUGHT WHATSOEVER
& choose God instead
Can you want God
MORE THAN
you want material benefit you think is coming as a reward?
Rise above selfish desires to realm of God.
How closed-minded are you?
Have you finally challenged EVERYTHING you ever learned in church?
Or any other “teacher”?
#DEHYPNOTIZE
Didn’t Jesus say something like “I know I don’t need ask You (pray) for Lazarus or anyone else but I’ll say few words 4 the ppl”?
Why, oh why, aren’t my prayers being answered??
Coz ur praying to your chosen
c-o-n-c-e-p-t
of God which is non-existent. #AWAKEN
Coming to God for healing?
You have my sympathy coz you have everything sooo backwards.

People!
Have you ever tried listening to what others are

saying? It usually is the antithesis of what you’re hearing!

My kingdom is not of this world.
This world doesn’t have a clue what & where My kingdom is.
It is within u.

“God is a jealous God.”
What a strange scripture…
Until you see that in God there’s nothing else you could possibly want or need
Still petitioning an anthropomorphic god for things u deem apropos for your or anyone else’s life?
How’s it working?
#DEHYPNOTIZE
Don’t you just
L <3 V E . it
when you put God first & then your 'personal issues' get resolved instantaneously & "miraculously"?
When you rise above personal desires & realize that all you really want is - drum roll please - God, miracles start happening
😀
I do version of tongues that hardly resembles the original: done in private & with melody, it also serves to free up meditation
😉
CAN YOU POSSIBLY IMAGINE:
GOD IS THE ONLY POWER !!
No thoughtlessness, germs, infections, wars, earthquakes, death #AWAKEN
KEEP LISTENING !!
LISTEN WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART .
GOD IS .
THAT'S IT !! DO NOT JUDGE, BUT CULTIVATE SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT .
Here is a very powerful word to ponder deeply:
" I S " .
There's no longer a need to judge, resist or fear.
GOD IS . #DEHYPNOTIZE
I keep falling in love with everybody!
The difference now - spiritually - is that I never fall back out of

Power doesn't exist out here in the realm of effect: power only exists in the invisible realm of inner impulse of God

I and the Father are One.
The Father is expressed through me.
God's law is inviolable.
I am subject to divine Grace, God's kingdom
Wanted a major
BREAKTHROUGH
in meditation and found it: Treatment & prayer can be summoned during meditation to break blockages.
When you meditate and thoughts come racing in, don't be distressed: just disregard them.
You'll soon be free of intruding thoughts
Close your eyes and think of a scripture or other enlightened thought. Good. Now another. & another.
They came from your awareness
When u finish meditating do u feel world calling you back?
This question is only about ur thinking..
Do u give up all inspiration?
This morning I had stupidest block re meditation.
It occurred 2 seconds after really good session.
Went right back & extended it!
This is for people who are suffering:
Find that place in your vision/mind that is free & clear. That's Spirit, God.
Go deeper-stay

God would take over after an honest effort
So many times throughout my life when I’ve wanted to follow more nearly and hear more clearly, I’d set everything up humanly to do so.
Then guess what would invariably happen?
God would take over and the ride was so sweet!

TIME NO LONGER: FINALLY FREE (IN THE FIFTH DIMENSION)

Revelation 10:6
Behold what manner .. John 1:3 cont.
We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. [15] Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. [16] Hereby perceive we the love of God , because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. [17] But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? [18] My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. [19] And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. [20] For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. [21] Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. [22] And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. [23] And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. [24] And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
