Partnerships and Foundations

From a channeling taped 1/6/03

Greetings, Beloved Friends! We are so delighted to be here this day with you.  In truth, we are with you always… there is no time of greater connection or lesser connection… there is only connection!

 There is a great movement upon your planet put forth by spiritual energy workers that is a wondrous process… a wondrous process… deeply ensconced in love. It is very quickly moving your planet in the direction of peace and it is very quickly moving your planet in the direction of the virgin future so recently spoken of by many of your metaphysical teachers. You are at the portal… it is but for one or two of you to cross. He or she who crosses this threshold in the energy of unity takes the world along. But it must be truly unity… it must be genuine. And that is where the  partnership you experience with your own divine self and guides comes in.

You dear energy workers… you dear enlightened beings… you are constantly reaching out, trying to do the right thing… And what is the right thing? You are taught to give. The right thing is to give. You pull in the energy of God and Goddess, of All That Is… you pull it in through your crown chakras, you pull it in through your feet, you pull it in through your heart centers, you pull it in through your kundalini, you pull it here there and everywhere and then you send it out so joyfully and selflessly from your hearts to heal the earth… to help heal your fellow man… to help heal the animal kingdom, the plant kingdom, the mineral kingdom… to raise the resonance of All That Is with this gift of joyful love going out from you.

You do this so powerfully and well… so avidly, so joyfully… and yet you know that the world has not settled into peace, the world has not yet settled into that divine future that is going to be lived out in true peace. Your souls are so hungry for this experience. Your souls are so hungry for this success! Your souls are hungry to see this and feel this and taste, smell and hear this… you want it to be part of your being. Your souls have wanted this since you first lost the experience of paradise on this planet.

As we see it, mankind never lost the opportunity for paradise on earth. Mankind lives in paradise… grace… always. Mankind possesses… each and every one of you possesses a divine spirit, a divine soul, a spark of the divine God/Goddess/All That Is within each and every one of you. And through this spark of divinity you hold the paradise on earth which you so strongly crave.

So how do you experience this? How do you allow it to be? What is the missing piece for creating peace on earth?

We’ve touched on this missing piece in previous teachings. And now we wish to reiterate: The missing piece is receiving, receiving, RECEIVING!

Think of it from this perspective… you are constantly reaching out to us. You divine, sweet, enthusiastic, spiritual beings are meditating and praying and channeling, you are doing toning, you are doing dancing, you are doing drumming, doing anything and everything you know how to do to feel the presence of the divine and to share it with the planet. Some of you understand that the reason you came to this planet originally was so that you could experience this grounded energy physically, emotionally, mentally… so that you could experience free will… so that you could experience duality… and so that you could experience the uniqueness of your own personal expression. Why would you come to a planet to do that when you live in pure divinity otherwise? You did it because God/Goddess/All That Is wanted to grow. And how does God/Goddess/All That Is grow? God grows through experience. And so this experience was created for all of you to grow.  For God to grow… and indeed, you have all grown!

As you reach out so hopefully, so excitedly, so desperately to experience the blending with Us, please be aware that from our perspective… from our side of the veil, we reach out to you. We reach out to experience this groundedness through you. This is a true two way street. The frustration on our side of the veil is that, as we reach out to you, you receive this wonderful energy from us, we create a beautiful joining and blending and then you give it all away!

We suggest that as you receive this beautiful blending from us, from God/Goddess/All That Is, from your divine guides and guardians who exist within this universe and beyond, that you fill yourselves with it completely… knowing unequivocally that this energy is unlimited in its supply… it cannot end! This energy is infinite! So as you fill yourselves with it, what will happen? You will begin to overflow. As you overflow, let that overflowing be your gift to humanity. Let that overflow be your gift to all other beings, the planet, the many kingdoms which exist here and even your gift to God/Goddess/All That Is.

The overflowing is meant to be your giving. The receiving is meant to be yours. It’s meant to help you hold your balance and your energy levels constant and growing in order that you might experience the enlightened path… paradise on earth!

We love you, dear ones! All we ask is that you receive from us. Don’t give it all away… hold and welcome what is meant to be yours… always hold it. In the energy of true unity you hold it as All That Is. How can this be the energy of greed?

There is another teaching on this planet that is very powerful and very lovely and which is strongly related to the issue of receiving. The teaching is that, as you walk your days, all negative energy may be released. That you are meant to only hold the positive. So many teachings such as ‘shadow work’ or ‘inner child work’ or even modern psychology move the aspirant toward the releasing of any and all negativity from their energy field. We wish to suggest that you learn to release with more discernment than has been previously taught.

We agree that it is a wonderful practice that through prayer, energy work, meditation, physical work, exercise or whatever technique works for your being, that you use this wonderful expanded energy to clean and release from your own personal fields of energy and energies which are not yours, positive or negative, which are not meant to be yours. You are very empathic, compassionate beings. Through this lovely compassion you are constantly picking up the energy of others. As you help others, as you listen to their woes, as you help them heal, we ask that you release anything and everything from them which is not appropriate to your path or your being. It is always a blessing to receive gifts of light from whomever. Keep the gifts of light, of course! But gifts of darkness you do not need to keep.  (And remember, you are moving quickly towards a day when darkness will no longer exist… there will only be different intensities of light.)

Release what is not yours.  And what is yours, rather than releasing it… KEEP IT! For some this will be a shocking statement. You may have worked for many years to simply release the garbage from your life, your mind, your emotions… your past. And now we come along and suggest that you not release it. Hmmm…

Consider that each and every experience you have had in this lifetime and all the lifetimes you have experienced are important to the truth of who you are today. Without any one of those experiences you would not have evolved to this moment as the same being you are today. Every experience was vital to the growth of your soul and to the growth of God/Goddess/All That Is. And so why would one release them?

Instead, we ask you to imagine that your body is a house and within this house lives your soul. Now, upon your planet you have built many, many homes… many houses and you have the knowledge that the strongest of these houses are built upon strong foundations. Imagine again that the foundation is made of many, many bricks. As you imagine this strong house built on the strong foundation of bricks, I ask you… which brick do you feel safe to remove from your foundation while the house continues to stand strong? To us the answer is none.

We suggest that every experience that you have in each and every one of your lifetimes including this one is like one of the bricks of your foundation. So rather than release all the experiences of your lives and thereby weakening your foundation, we suggest that you imagine or visualize that each of these experiences is being placed into the foundation of your life… the foundation of the house of your soul.

To what purpose? Now these experiences are not emotionally active within your energy field, they are not front and center in your conscious mind, they are not the ‘owners’ of this moment of experience for you… they are support to that. As support, now what? Now, each and every experience of your past becomes reference information and as you move through an experience in this moment you now have a reference library… your own room within the Akashic Record, to which you may turn for additional knowledge and guidance. For instance, as you approach a new relationship you begin to discern the energy of the other being and perhaps you recognize some of your old issues of abuse, victim or whatever. Hopefully you ask yourself if you truly wish or choose to re-experience these issues. As you ask the question, the universe responds immediately by opening the doorway to answers.

If you have released all the difficult experiences of your past, the answer may not be available!

If you have placed the experiences of your past into your foundation, the answer is easily accessed and understood. Now through your own memory, you dispassionately reevaluate your options and make an educated choice. You may choose to go forward with the relationship and new learnings or you may choose to end it and find a new path… there is no wrong answer… only empowered and responsible choice. Once your choice is complete you ‘return’ the memory to your foundation, much like returning a reference book to the library for future usage.

What does all this have to do with your partnership with God/Goddess/All That Is or your own soul? The power of two happens in truth, clarity, simplicity, gratitude, love… If you are filled with an angry past which has not been forgiven and still remains active within your energy field, or if you lack the wisdom of experience because you have released your past so thoroughly, there is no place prepared for us.

If, however, you stand upon a firm foundation of experiences, forgiveness (the cement which holds the ‘negative’ bricks in place), gratitude (the cement of the perceived positive bricks), joy and love… the way is prepared and we are here. Our love can thus blend with yours and you experience the joy of unity in which you may now choose to live every day, every moment of your life. And in that energy you become a shining example of joy, peace and love in your world. You become one who teaches others, through example or directly.

Embrace your past. Love your past! The good, the bad, the happy and sad, the light, the dark… embrace it without judgment and it all becomes purposeful. There is nothing to revile… this is the road to unity, this is the two-fold path where dimensions blend. Two become one. Love blends with love across the dimensional curtains and the curtains dissolve forever.

We love you so dearly… and we are here for all of you…
