[It is]

Hi Beloved Sister Laura and All ~

Well now after 2 weeks I can see more about what this challenge means (to me at least).
It is a lot about self-discipline and following through with it. Is not about food at all anymore. Is more about trust in myself and loving myself at a different level.
When I started on it I envisioned the 'end of fasting' and what I will eat then. Now...it doesn't matter anymore. Is honestly difficult to put in words.

Anyway guys please just don't make anything more out of this. It isn't.

love - Laura

Thank you so much for sharing this!! Yay!! Yes! Yes! YES!! Just me jumping on the clouds with you my sister. It is difficult to put into words. You rock and I am for one grateful that you jumped into the experience.

It's experiences like these that show us the amazing value of as I believe Einstein said, 'Leave All Expectations at the Door."

Be Surprised. I for one Love surprises.

I love you Laura and All ~

In Divine Spirit, Your Sister,

Julia

Laura, my gift of Spiritual Food for thought to take with you and nourish you today;

"Illumination is Light in the mind. Word made flesh, the integration of heaven and earth. Illumination is not of this world. It lifts us up above the lies of the world by helping us to detach from them." ~ calendar reading for today

Hi Freedom and All ~

Thank you for sharing this link.  Before I read or approach anything I Ask for Divine Wisdom and Discernment, so I can only share with you what came through as  I read this. Again, this is what came through for me.

Avoid Extremes. What is good for one may not necessarily be for another.

Most people eat out of boredom or because they are dehydrated I've noticed. I wouldn't rule out any part of this experience. Just sample or moderation in all things keeps me from getting caught up in all the potential extremes.

Just sharing,

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

[As for being leaders, "The first shall be last and the last shall be first.]

Good Morning Larry,

I am troubled any time I see, hear or read that someone is going to be a leader in the spirit or homo spirit life. The angels have a hierarchy. This worlds governments are set up this way. We are the children of God. Like it or not this makes us Gods. We have been since before the foundations of the earth. God created the angels. (we created the angels). As for being leaders, "The first shall be last and the last shall be first. Can anyone comment on this?  larry

I see IT as the Alpha and Omega. Seems to keep the Harmony. By the way what's not to like about Being Child of God? I love IT!!

Just sharing,

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

Hi HareOm~

You're welcome. By the way, you are given all the desires (Divinely guided desires) of your heart.

InJoy,

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

Hi All ~

Hmmm... just wondering out loud in my corner of the room as I listen to this discussion.

Seems children are innocent and have no labels of anything or definitions until they are influenced by their environment.

Children can be very wise in their youthful innocence before learning to speak that is.

Put a plate of food before a child with a variety of things and say nothing but 'Here, take and eat." End of sentence.

Allow the child to choose by freewill and then never tell the child that this is good or bad and I wonder what a child would believe?

Purity of Mind keeps one Innocent and Young. If we as One would Unify our thoughts this way, hmmm... I wonder if the idea of ageing would become;

'What's that?'

Just asking in wonder,

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

P.S. Yes Baki, that is Wave. My what Big Eyes you have Louis!! The Better to see you with...

Namaste HareOm and All ~

Seeds leave not their Source or Ideas leave not their Source...

I am fond of the idea of sowing seeds of Love...

We are God Seed ~ Love's Seeds... hmm...

InJoy this day,

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

[I really do need to prononce the right notes]

Good Morning Bakichan,

It's story time and you and I can sit together while I share from my metaphysical book. I do not look for these things, in fact it is uncanny how they seem to come to me or are literally just handed to me. So I openly share with you now if you are Open to hearing and allow these things to float by and go about your day.

Your Wild Sister Loves You,

Heh, I love my wild sister 

Your right though, I really do need to prononce the right notes 

Let's walk backwards. It's about singing the right notes. Do not concern yourself with pronunciation. Why? Because God or Source looks at the Inner Intention not the correct pronunciation. Spiritual Correction is not the same as earthly while the early only emulates a Spiritual Law, you will know the correct Sound, remember you are Divinely Guided, Your Nannies will apprentice you if you are Open and willing to grow in your understanding. And you are, So that said...

To be able to access Divine Wisdom, you must approach access from the foundation of Divine Love. That's what I am attempting to do here Julia. Yes Baki, there's more.

Jesus shared a gold nugget about this, you must make things right with your brother or sister before approaching Source. Why is that? Well, because Source does not see any discord, or difference or judgement of any. We do by looking at the illusion and believing it is real. Our idea of sifting and sorting is to exclude. Spiritual sifting and sorting is to Lighten and Uplift. Keep only Love and remove all the base complaints and false judgements of another.

So we attempt to approach Source by bringing our own Self righteousness before our Heavenly Parent while pointing a finger at our sibling or siblings. Have you ever told on anyone in your life? Hmm... You know, judged their actions, complained about someone even if only in your heart? Disapproved of another? Ever done this? I'll go first. Yes, I have, and it does not work. Truth. Prayers seeming to go unanswered? Hmmm.. Why God Why? We begin to sound like the son in the story of the Prodigal who stayed close to the Father. Seems both sons had some adjusting to do yes? Who here can exclude themselves from this? Not pointing a finger, just asking out loud something that was revealed to me for consideration that would allow me to freely without barriers access my Divine Source. And I so desired this and this was my 'answer'.

What does it Sound like when you are bringing your sibling in to be judged? A sweet sound or a grating whining sound? Just asking, we all have to answer this for ourselves.

Now we expect to be heard and demand in a sense that we be right and another needs to be corrected. Hmmm...

What goes around comes around.

So, we must first make things right with our siblings before approaching Source. As in willing to be examined by the Higher Spirit within who allows us to place our judgements into the Eternal Scales of Justice and Balance and then into the Fire of Purification to reveal the Gold or God in us in this particular experience. Bring your complaints to the Higher Spirit and this is the Order of Divine Access that leads to Direct Access.

One by one our thoughts are brought up to the surface for examination. Do not leave any out. How? By Asking to be Examined by Divine Spirit.

It is a constant process and you will notice that the Lighter you become, the Higher your note.

Okay, story time is over for you and I. I am off to wander and Be available and Open to the daily adventure.

I love you Bakichan and All,

We'll catch up at dinner and share our day with one another.

In Unconditional Love, InJoy this day,

In Divine Spirit, Your Sister, the ramblin' Rose, the Lily,


Julia

Hi Melody and All ~

There is nothing you can "say" to Source, God, "Father" within you, because Source does not recognise or respond to human words - which is why the prayer used in churches has no effect.

"God gave them an answer". They would have an overpowering feeling of how to proceed and that everything would be all right. They told me it is not even necesary to get into a meditative state, simply talk to God internally with all the cincerity and from the center of yourself, and that God answers.

Very well stated. I will say that meditative state is defined in many ways. You simply commune with God all day long. Even in conversation with another, God is Present. You allow God to Be Present in every area of your life.

I call it making God your Intimate Life Partner.

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

P.S. Louis ~ Why ya gotta worry so much Huh? See? You are receiving loving comments here. Next we will be calling you a show off!

As always, just playing with you. ~ Love you Wave ~ Julia

Hi Justin,

We're syncing here on 'time'.

I understand and did not take what you shared as a condoning or a condemning, I agreed with you in my first response on this subject. IT IS what IT IS. I honestly have come to a place where I do not think much about what others are doing at all. If something trips me up in someone I immediately surrender it to my Higher Spirit and Ask for I Sight. Peace is the indicator of the 'answer'.

How to knock down the barriers, well, again, I can only share what has been revealed to me up to now so here goes;

We are given 'guides' to assist us in all these things in this unreality. They are called by many different names, I call them Angels. For myself an angel is an agent of GOD or a Spiritual 'Nanny'. When we rebel by negative thinking (focusing on the outer picture more than paying attention to the Inner) we in a sense turn them into the 'bad guys' or ones who cramp our ego style or runaway self. We do not want to look inside. We want to play outside. And then we seem to get 'stuck' on walls and such. Barriers. Why? Because we are still looking at the outside and trying to bring it inside.

The seeming frustration or battle we feel going on is actually a part of removing the barriers process. We do this until we exhaust all of our arsenal. Now we are in the position of listening. And that is usually when we 'hear' IT. Presence. Something comes over you in an unexplainable way. Hard to define really. But then it seems to move away and so on and so on. We are beginning to become aware of something other than what we are physically seeing or sensing. Now just to make Direct Contact and stay there.

Seems that we keep finding ourselves returning to a place of realizing that we have fallen again and we cannot seem to get up or out of our state. We naturally begin to cry out in our Inner Being. We're moving inward now more and more as these things seem to arise in our outer view.

What has happened here in a nutshell or seed being planted for consideration is, we have adulterated our minds and disregarded the Still Small Voice, we've all heard IT and done otherwise. IT can only be heard in Silence. Now what do we do?

We Open ourself to Being Self Examined and Ask our Higher or Holy Spirit to assist us by guiding us to our Source through Divine Guidance of our Divine Guides. The First Guide Being Divine Wisdom. Why? Because Wisdom is knowing what to do with the Divine Tools or Knowledge we have already innate, just unused.

Solomon was known to be the Wisest man who ever lived, even though he forgot this at one point. He Asked for Wisdom. And he received Wisdom and all the rest was added to him in that order. What order?

Wisdom (Divine Understanding) -Power ( Divine Will)- founded on Love (Divine Love) which would then give this to All without any exclusion. Open Heart, Open Mind, Open Hands.

Wisdom is the Imparting of Spiritual Truths for the unfolding of Consciousness.

There is more but enough for now. Just begin with Asking for Divine Wisdom and Discernment, Is this of God or Source, or others unfounded opinions or my own unfounded opinions?

Hope this helps a bit Justin,

Wow, the Energy flowing through I just had to let IT flow,

Namaste,

Love in Divine Spirit,

Julia

Hi Justin,

Hmm... perhaps I could have stated this more clearly. I would not myself recommend mind altering substances to just anyone. I was refering to some of the methods used in the ancient rites and ritualistic circles, these things were not for 'recreational' purposes. They were used for Rites of Initiation and the elders were always present with the youngers to call on the Divine Guides to Guide the process, the Elders Being the vehicles for communication as well since they had already been through the Rites Being performed.

I agree, many use these Sacred things for recreational purposes which honestly has the ability to turn into one non productive lifestyle. Too much of anything is too much.

However, that said, my being a 'child of the '70's' and being apart of these things during this point in time they were quite a common experience with all extemes being observed. My experiences back then allows me to relate to those who have had this experience or may be going through it now.

I find especially when Being very involved in Spiritual matters that one has the possibility to view purity in such a way that is lacking in compassion for a one who may be experiencing life in a far removed manner from them. They have no grace towards others and in a sense become exclusive in their thinking. I have been asked would I allow this one thought to prevent me from viewing the Face of God as in non acceptance of even one. Truly, it is an ongoing purification process until all thoughts are accepting of All parts of oneself. I also notice that when I see something in another one of myself that I do not care for I am being asked to discern;

Is this Love answering or a call to Love? I cannot see in another what is not true somewhere within myself as I AM whatever I am seeing in the outer picture.

In closing I have been shown that Spirit Connection with Source is difficult for those who approach things from the Mental Mind as they tend to focus on the outer picture and attempt to make it fit with the Inner. It never worked for me this way either and I am Open to sharing with All the process I have been on yet by no means saying this is the way to do it. All I can say is that this way I have been shown has been a Mind Opening and Altering experience for this one. I do not see things the way I did even one year ago.

I do not know what you are being shown by your Higher Self in regards to this woman but maybe the 'barrier' you see may also be a barrier she sees in you and this is an opportunity for you and her expressing as another form of you to learn Unconditional Love. This does not mean you must force yourself to 'join' her in her habits. You can love her from a distance.

This reminds me of something I heard back in the church days in regards to people who smoked (all habits apply here);

"People who smoke don't go to hell, they just smell like it." Pardon me All, I am not trying to offend any. I just thought that was a funny way to show acceptance for another no matter what.

Didn't mean to go on here Justin, but it just flowed.

May you be Blessed with Joy and Unconditional Love,

Your sister in Divine Spirit,

Julia

Understood Bakichan,

Just sharing with you a Spiritual Law or Principle...

The Law of Adjustment. To be able to Open the Gates of Divine Wisdom one must play the right note.

You must Sound the right note. Energy is Sound vibration. Play here Baki, Do, Re, Me, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do.

Your Wild Sister Loves You,

Julia

Hi Bakichan and All ~

I find it so unfair that we all do not know this as a fact and is more or less chopped up as a metaphysical reality or religion. Things like this should be taught in schools and such. It is unfair that we have to go through such ordeals to find the inner truth about reality. Have we really falling so far  ?

In my own observation of these things, what is revealed is what Darrell, Talker and others have been sharing in here woven throughout many posts.

When we speak of the daily practices, for myself it means to demonstrate (teach) to others Spiritual truth by daily practical living or application.

In fact we are admonished to teach others or pass on what we as a student are learning in return. So the teacher in essence is a student at the same time. We are All in this together. And when you pass the Spiritual Truth on, it keeps coming because it is coming by Direct Communication of an Endless Source. Spiritual Truth as in Ones Life Support System which is in building an Intimate Relationship with Source. I hope I am making sense here my Beloved Brother.

Now the issue becomes what we have heard of as one being unteachable. I am sure all of 'us' can identify with other parts of ourselves in this picture.

We in essence have forgotten or misplaced the Sacred Arts in the Daily Rituals that apply these truths to our earthly experience keeping us Divinely Connected by Divine Guidance or Intuition not Intellectualism. Intellect follows Intuit. They work together in the Divine Order of Things so to speak.

So where am I heading with this? We must be open to taking on our youngers as Apprentices as we are Open to Being Apprenticed.

These things are not lost, Trust me. This forum is a very Present Indicator of these things being 'demonstrated' for all. I love it because we can come in here and share the Sacred Arts and Release them to the Universe to receive more.

I love you All in Divine Spirit,

Julia

We as I love You too Larry.
