Next... Greetings, dear friends! We are always delighted to share energy with you! At the moment of this writing the channel sits in the cockpit of an antique Cessna 310 cruising at an altitude of 7500 feet at a speed near 160 knots with a steady headwind. And it’s a magnificently beautiful day! From this altitude the atmosphere is very clear which means there is much less interference created by the busy minds of civilization. This wonderful process called channeling becomes even clearer… aligning the physical and nonphysical energies for communication is dramatically simplified. What fun! Today the dominant question seems to be: What is my job in this amazing time of shifting? We find it marvelous that so many are asking to understand their purpose and we recognize the myriad reasons for the new and renewed desire to know. Some of you ask in desperation… hoping that the answer will lead you out of the present-day chaos. Others, feeling inconsequential in the ‘big plan’, desire lives of deeper meaning… greater purpose. Many simply feel lost and desire a map or guide. While others are aware of a change… These are the ones who understand that their training is complete (at least for the time being) and the time for the work they volunteered to do is now! We would like you all to understand that it is unimportant to us what brought you to this question of purpose. It is only important to us that you have asked it! We are overjoyed simply by that! We also sense the desire for personality to receive a specific, lofty, complicated answer. After all, coming to this point was very complicated and it was the promise of grand results which kept a lot (if not most) of you going. Many wonder, didn’t the ‘prophets of old’ predict this shift? This chaos? And didn’t they promise nirvana on the other side of the shift? And likewise haven’t the ‘prophets of new’ promised change that leads to a healed and peaceful world? The time may not be quite here yet… but shouldn’t we be seeing hints of its imminent arrival? Truly, dear pilgrim, if you are still looking out to the distant horizon for signs of heaven on earth you must be experiencing inconsistent results. Your success at spotting signs of paradise will be governed entirely by the paradise you hold within. If you peruse the horizon without peace in your heart you will not observe peace there. When your emotions are tempestuous and your thoughts chaotic you will align with realities of equal or similar resonance. If, however, you take the time to balance, to deal with any emotions which impair your experience, to focus your thoughts in the direction of peace… joy… love… and then you peruse the horizon, we assure you that you will witness the signs of the earthly heaven that you so passionately desire (and deserve!)! And still you ask, “What is next for me? I know ‘to be’ and not’ to do’… and I know to go within? So,… now that I know all that, what’s next?” Oh, how we love the way you think while you are in the physical! So, what is next? We say, follow your nose… your eyes… your touch… your ears… What is before you, beside and around you? What have you drawn to you in this moment of experience? That is what is next! For now, reading this channeled article is your path. When you have finished with this short presentation, choice will be the only thing standing between you and your continued path. Will you choose to move in the direction of another article? If so, that is next. Will you choose to save the other articles for another reading and move in another direction? Choice is powerful here. Joyfully applied it is a wonderful ally which aligns you with your preferred path. It is wondrous to avoid judging your choices once they are made. If you find you do not like the path that choice has opened before you, you are almost always free to alter your choice, at least to the extent of altering your attitude about that choice and its results. As you proceed, remember that there are no wrong choices… only different paths… but you already knew that, didn’t you?! Later, when you meet the mailman as he delivers your post, that is your path for that time. As you cook dinner tonight, your assignment is to prepare a meal of nourishment and love. When you process the papers on your desk at work, the excellent performance of this sacred task is what is next for you. Whatever your task, perform it with loving dedication and peaceful heart. This next will lead to another next and that one to yet another. Whether in your 4D reality or our other dimensional experience… this is how next works. Are you also aware that one of your primary allies in ‘next’ is time? (We love the notion that a concept that doesn’t actually exist as presently defined and experienced is such an important factor in 4D!) How so? Travel any where around your world today and you will hear the observation that time seems to be speeding up. And actually it is. BUT, it does still exist for you and because of that you have what we would define as a very worthwhile shock absorber or cushion between you and the manifestation of your thoughts and choices. As you contemplate your choices for what is next along your path, can you imagine what would happen if you had instantaneous results? All you would have to do is think that learning to ride an elephant would be a marvelous next experience and abracadabra… there you would be! Or perhaps you are considering your rebuttal to someone’s difficult comments… you think passionately about the impact your words will have as you look them in the eye and set them straight… and there you are! Or at age 30, you dream about retirement… Time gives you time to change your mind. And what is changing your mind? It is redirecting your thoughts and empowering these new thoughts with emotion and choice. And after that, time again affords you the opportunity to continue or modify your intent. What a wonderful system! Do either you or your friends say something like ‘CANCEL!’ whenever you slip and say or think unkind thoughts? It is time that allows you that luxury. It is even time which grants us the opportunity to share these words in an article titled ‘Next… ‘, for without time there would be no next. These may be silly ramblings, but they express an important concept. Love and appreciate your use of time… Grumbling because the miracles you design don’t manifest quickly enough and the horrors you design manifest too quickly is a waste of… time. Develop your use of time as a tool for enhancing your path. That is truly what it was intended to be. Next will also evolve with greater elegance if you envision the destination more and fuss with the details of getting there less. It has become human nature to attempt to control the minutiae. Unfortunately, the more you plan, fine tune and direct, the less your own Soul can offer suggestions and alternatives. Personality loves to believe it is not only designing and choosing your path, but it also loves to think it is in total control of it. For those of you who would like to experience more adventure, freedom and divinely inspired life, try imagining the outcome you desire while leaving the details to your Higher Self. It doesn’t mean that you’ll have nothing to do… it means that options that were previously beyond your imagination can present themselves and you can choose them… next. Envisioning the destination and releasing the details also does not obviate your responsibility for appropriate preparation. Imagine if the pilot of the airplane in which your channel is riding had not plotted their route! It was good use of focused intention, choice and envisioning to study the planned direction, understand the necessary rules and interactions and intend with flexibility the desired destination. That is appropriate action within your collective consciousness. Within those details, however, a great deal of space was left for inspired choice and change. Yes, they have flown according to the rules of piloting… and yes, they just might circle their friends’ house to tell them they have arrived… And for now, still flying somewhere over the Mohawk Valley in New York, the channel dodges clouds and communes with dimensions beyond… or is it within? Of the many paths she has experienced, for her this one is a ‘wow’. When the plane has landed and she reconnects to the planet, next will be ready in so many expected and unexpected ways. This is true adventure… This is life… This is the way… Namaste’ P.S. from Sarrinn: Signs appear everywhere. On the control panel of the airplane there is a small placard just over the instrument indicating the manifold pressure… it reads: Maintain Power Within… We agree!
