Does this 'Voice' sound like yours? By the way, it usually 'seems' to me that the first Intuit not Insight is usually the One Intuitively speaking. I just tend to invite a lot of people to the party if you will and that's when I get myself into a whole bunch of trouble, like playing with matches just to see what happens and then having to explain why the house is burnt down. H mmm....my Intuitive Voice said, "Play with something else, you might get burned or burn the house the down." Another voice said, "Don't be a wet blanket or a goody two shoes, has God said?"


Just whispering out loud, You already know the answer to this, Trust me,

[I have a few swords I used to collect]

Hello wavepsychic,

I am Julia and welcome to the forums!!

I have a few swords I used to collect. The cops took one of my swords (don't ask me why) but I do not care. Even though something was taken from me I do not have any hard feelings. But my soul is lighter now. My purpose in life is not to collect symbols of weapons. As a Buddhist I can not Sell them, give them away nor can I keep them in my passion fore my soul can be thee no longer.

How does one then get rid of them?
any ideas?

I am only asking questions as I am interested in 'others'. What was the reason for collecting in them in the first place? Were they for use as an art display? For myself, when I see something I wish to look at it is for the Soul purpose of just enjoying them without attaching any labels to the object. If someone likes swords because they like swords for no other reason then I see no conflict with having them. If they have a secret desire to use it in an 'Off with heads moment' then I would Ask about the meaning of these things. One can put the swords in a box and put them away. We don't keep things in reality as we exit as we entered. Without a U-haul.

I'm really just thinking out loud here. I'm not for or against the swords. I'm just curious as to where we the idea of 'weapons' all originated from. Language just fascinates me and I am still discovering the many uses for it. I guess I didn't really answer the question........................

Again, welcome and In Joy this day,

Julia

Good Morning L Lawliet,

I appreciate and enjoy you and your response here. I also Trust that All is Well.

Life is a great mystery to me. There are things I understand, things I think I understand and things I have no clue of. Learning that reality is nothing but an illusion was hard for me to cope with at first. I was beginning to see how Neo felt after realizing what the Matrix was.

Life is indeed a mystery to all of us Me's here. For this one it this very thing that makes it so interesting and fun. I agree that realizing it was an illusion was well, eye opening to say the least. A momentary gaining of my bearings and making sure I was truly awake and not still 'dreaming'. I enjoyed the Matrix as well.

Life itself should be the greatest teacher. Not some book. You learn the truth through experience. Tell me this. If a book can teach you everything you need to know, then why is it that sir Hanma and many others asks so many obvious questions? Judging from Hanma's topics I assume he has a great deal of books from Adrian's stash. Yet he still appears clueless halve the time wink.

Baki, I want you to know that I think your a wonderful person and that I am not attacking you in anyway and please forgive me if I that came out rude or disrespectful. I was just trying to prove a point and sometimes I can be really blunt with it. What I'm getting at is this - what can you learn from these books that you wouldn't learn here? Here we have a on-line community with wonderful people like  Mrs. Julia, Sir Adrian, Melody, and many others. What I have learned here, I have read in other books as well, though you guys, and gals wink, have your own opinion on the matter.

For me, Life itself is the greatest reflection of what I am being taught. My teacher is God. I learned I have this connection 24/7, 365 days of an annual cycle, until I reach the place of where I 'exit' this playground as prearranged and agreed to.We speak of Knowing God, the First Cause, The Creator of All and In All, Ever Present and Ever Knowing of All things past, present and future (finite time definitions). Interesting in that God is Infinite. These definitions means different things to different 'people' as aspects of God aka us.

No 'Book' can teach us everything we 'need' to know. This is obviously the Truth because many people in this forum have come from all different backgrounds, religious ones being most predominant. It's just another form of communication saying 'You are onto to something', a landmark if you will. Books for me are interesting. I get my lessons upfront and then something pops up in my picture. Many times I have had to put them away for a season and just go outside and play for awhile because I'm not able to sit still long enough to read it. Then after I've been shown something in playing with God, I'll rediscover the book in my great way of organizing (in a box somewhere, when the clutter becomes unbearable and I am in a Zen state of mind ) I pick it up, read it, and am blown away by what is being read because it is like someone has been peeking inside my windows if you know what I mean. Not the other way around. I'm a brat. I don't like nor ever have liked someone telling me what to do or how to think. Ask my family, children and friends. Yes, it does kick me in my royal ass sometimes but I only recognize it because I do it or I wouldn't be able to define it.

Asking questions like Baki and myself and all of us do is just, a bread crumb trail that was created by us to lead us home. Everything happens for a reason. The people, places, circumstances are indicators. Is this my Truth or not? This then leads us to more hunting. It's a natural process of being God's children who as God are ever expanding and alive and not just sitting on the side lines watching the 'other' children play. God plays many ways. We are not limited in our possibilities of how to get back home. People as in this forum, places, circumstances, books, music, food, etc........

For me, I see that other parts of me tend to take things way to seriously and I forget to have Fun. We are all here to play, because this is an illusionary playground. Like children play, that's the 'job' of children. They Trust in humble gratitude that there is a place to sleep whether inside or outside, food will come, however way it shows up and sometimes it takes leaving the biological families of this illusion to understand that All has Always been taken care of. Otherwise I wouldn't be writing this right Now.

L, that's Ms. Julia, if you don't mind. Messing with your hair here.

I already knew my Truth when Adrian showed up. That is how I was able to recognize my True family member. I recognize he was speaking in my native tongue. Anyone who has lived abroad knows how it feels when you hear someone speaking in your home language, after having been away in 'foreign' country for extended periods of 'time'.

In the past I simply trusted people a little to much. I have been mislead, misguided, and mistaught by many so called enlighten ones. Perhaps it is only me. Maybe I haven't been mislead or misguided or mistaught. Maybe the truth was always there and I just didn't know it. Maybe I don't even know what it is I am looking for in this life. I know I want answers, honest ones. To the greatest mysteries of this universe. However, how much can one tell? How much does one honestly know from what one thinks he knows? If I purchase this book, what will I learn that I couldn't from this site? Oh course the choice is mines and I am under no pressure.

I can truly relate to trusting in people too much. We give our rightful inheritance and the ownership of our lives away too easily. As to the words preceded by 'Miss' as in mis-takes, I see them as a turning of one's ankle. It get my attention and I have a moment to regroup and realize I am being shown something. So in essence these things have served their purpose in allowing me to realize I am not in rightful ownership, I am an impostor of my True Life. As in "I don't believe that, that's nonsense!" sort of thing. However, how many times in my life did I just go along and not rock the boat for fear of being unaccepted or rejected. I have come to realize that when someone tells me something, it's their thoughts, they own it, I don't have to own or care about it (not in a calloused way), I can allow them to have ownership of their life based on their thinking. Alot of people just don't want to own their own life, so they keep busy by fussing with yours or mine, etc.. I do own my Life Now, and I ain't given it to anyone else. What I have for myself I want you to have for yourself. FREEDOM. Ahhh....like taking a dive into a waterfall fed pool..................

That's all I was saying to you L. You are beautiful the way you are Now. Not when you know, do or have this or this or that. It's too much donkey and carrot thinking. No wonder we wear ourselves out with these tormented and confusing thoughts. It really is about;"Be Still and Know (without a doubt) that I AM GOD." That's a promise for all God's children. This wasn't said and then "Oh except for L Lawliet." Please understand I am humoring you here yet this is a True statement. This is what I mean by not adding or subtracting from Truth. God Is as God Says. We keep trying to make say whatever we 'believe' in the moment and then find ways to justify it by using religion. Insanity.

STOP the bus!! I'm getting off. But Julia, there's Bogey men and monsters, and YIKES, did you hear that, what was that noise!! Julia really in a I'm mad as hell and I'm not taking the crap and lies being fed here because quite honestly, I'm starving on this junk food says, Wow! There really is such a thing as a fresh breath of air. I'm going on, I'll send postcards when I remember the address I'm sending it to. No, I'm not interested in being a leader of anything. I just love adventure. And I know without a doubt that there are those who are with me in this. So we head out and enjoy Adventure Land together. Can I hold your hand? Absolutely!! That's what True family and friends are for.

Julia, sweetheart I ask myself questions all the time wink. That is where the majority of them come from, not from other sources, but from my own head. They originate there. They stay there until an suitable answere has been found. A lot of times I con figure answers out for myself, but in a field as big such as this, I can't be too careful. I don't like not knowing anything I want to know, and I dislike obtaining  wrong answers even more.

All I was sharing with you L was a big hug. I love you just the way you are. I see you in your Innocent and Beautiful True Position because God allows me to see mine. I cannot give you what I have not received. I truly enjoy you and your questions, and contributions to this forum as well as everyone else's, yes, even the ones I do not agree with. I can love people who do not agree with me because I do not want carbon copies of Julia. How Boring!! Julia doesn't do boring and God knows this because God is intimately acquainted with all my ways, as yours, Why? Well I am an extension of God, as you are.

Sending Love your way in All Ways,

In Joy this day L,

Julia

[that will never cease]

Good Evening L Lawliet,

How do you all make the quotes look so decent! I'm still learning how to make it look nice. Anyway.....

I must first quiet the storm of turmoil within me. Questions.. Answers.. Spinning in my head like a violent tornado that will never cease. I feel trapped in an endless journey that only seems to be guiding me in circles if not back and forth like a Yo-Yo.

H mmm....Interesting. I am listening to you (not judging by any means) and I'm hearing, 'Let's play a game L, the What If game.' Will you play this game with me? What if you challenged or questioned these thoughts? What if these thoughts 'could' change? How would I begin? Where the thought begins? As in the same place they started? What if I could trace these thoughts back to their original source? What if I could find the Highest Standard of Measurement as in none can compare and then placed these thoughts up to this High Measure of Unconditional Love Standards? As in there is nothing you could or could not do to have it because you are it? It's just about beliefs. They change, they come and go. But there is Truth that never changes and this Truth is saying otherwise. As in I Love because I AM Love. And you are the one in whom this One is well pleased. Just sharing, not preaching, just asking, what if this were True? How would you know? Just choose which one you really believe in. You can always change your thoughts if one doesn't agree with you.

Sending Love your way, All is Well NOW,

Many Blessings, Be Well and Sweet Dreams, Okay?

Julia

Hello Bakichan,

I do not wish to speak for anyone else here especially Melody. I am answering you because I believe it was my metaphor or word picture that created confusion here. Forgive me but I will repost the conversation between Melody and I. I will bold emphasize the points I wish to conclude with at the end.

I see Unconditional Love as the Center with negative and positive as balancing as in a scale. It's interesting that negative has a label of 'bad or evil' and positive has a label of 'good'. Maybe if the labels were removed, it would be just polarity balancing.


Melody's Response;
Polarities of what? If we cannot or should not name them, maybe those polarities do not exist, and Unconditional Love does not balance anything but simply IS.

Evil does exist, we see plenty of it in our world. Good exists too. Maybe they are not polarities at all, but simply are, as Unconditional Love is. Then eliminating one would not unbalance anything. Eliminating evil will simply create more Unconditional Love, reverting that energy to the primal principle of God.

Good Morning Melody, smiley

Thank you for expressing your point of view!! It really assists me in refining and expanding my communication skills. For that I am truly appreciative. smiley

Refining my expression here; Source is the origin of all things. The beginning point. Source is Unconditional Love. Negative and Positive are attributes(characteristics defining the natures of each direction of extremes) of Source nature,  following from the point of Origin are directions of opposites that distinguishes the nature (characteristics of extremes) of separation or distance from the point of Origin.

For example, East to West as North to South. Is East evil, West is good, etc..? It's relative. It just is. We put labels on these attributes or characteristics. We add onto it. It is in doing this, we mess with the Original, we tamper with it. That is what sets this whole 'thing' off, we 'think', (there's that word again) that we have to 'fix' something that cannot be fixed. Why? It is Immutable. It doesn't need fixing. A leave it be.

I was just drawing a word picture. A scale for me was a good example. The scale is in perfect balance. What supports the opposite sides? A Center. Each basket extending in opposite directions, left to right is balanced in its perfect state. When I remove something from one side, it offsets the balance. It tips the scale. This is neither good or evil. Its a Universal Truth being distinguished. We are able to see the effects of this established Truth. It merely means the absence of something from another. If I put something back into the basket I removed it from, it continues to shift until the amount in each basket is directly proportional to the other and they will balance.

Just sharing my perspective. Again, thank you Melody. smiley

Many Blessings, Be Well and In Joy this day,

Julia

“Cold and Hot”,  “Light and “Dark”,  “East and West”, are those polarities? They might be from our limited perspective, as it relates to our body, our senses and our position. In reality, they are states of being on temperature, light, and space scale. By “Scale” I don’t mean the balance, a lever hanged in the middle. I mean something like a music scale, where the notes are going up or down, or a thermometer scale that indicates temperature. So basically there is no polarity in absolute terms for temperature, light, and space, only position on the scale of those properties. None of those properties need to balance themselves in any way. They simply are a state of being at that moment. They simply are, and are not polarities of any other state of being on that universal scale.

I believe it is the same for “Good and Evil”. Those are not polarities, but represent a position on the scale of being of our Soul. By going up or down on that scale (like going up and down a music scale) one only positions himself on that scale.

On the very top of the scale of “Good and Evil” is Unconditional Love and God.

"Up and Down" are not polarities either. They are simply coordinates. In spacial terms it is only a positioning, in spiritual terms it indicates a position where you are on your journey back to God.

To each their own. Whatever speaks to you. I can respect this.

Many Blessings, Be Well and In Joy this day.

Actually Baki, Polarities are a relationship between two opposite attributes or tendencies such as 'good and evil' which is a polarity as is loving and unloving. Melody stated that there are no polarities just a state of being yet she concluded that there is good and evil and God is at the top as Unconditional Love. When it comes to Source, God, we speak in Literal terms. Anything that expresses duality as in good and evil, east and west, etc., is expressed by using metaphors or word pictures. We use symbolism to express a Spiritual Truth. It's not always easy in this reality to express Something that has no words to describe. It's a point and grunt sort of thing. So there again is a big difference between speaking Literally and Figuratively. GOD IS. End of quote. To add or subtract to that in anyway is false. I just used a scale to define in symbols a reflection of the True Image. Inseparable. Like one's arms which are extension of one body spread out from side to side.

Either God is Oneness or God is not. God is Perfect or God is not.  And Truth just does not support that God is anything but Perfect Oneness. We are extensions of God, not separate from God. We are Perfect Oneness. When do we get there as in a journey? When we die? Truth says we are in God's Image as in:

We are eternal, immortal, universal and infinite, and what we are is Beautiful, as God whom we are from. And Baki, that is what we are NOW, in this moment, not when we 'get there' where ever there is, that's a lie of a separated, split mind, or the god who created this reality, it's a false god. Or to say even that we have to attain something to get there, which we don't. We just have to receive the gift NOW.

To keep saying this is Insanity. It is this very thinking that reveals a split mind trying to keep people playing a game of separation from God. That's what needs to be 'corrected'. We say there is no separation, and then we separate ourselves. Does this make sense? We are complete NOW. It is the mentality of this false illusion that keeps us bound to thinking that we have to earn it and it's hard to earn it, with no guarantee that you will earn it. No wonder we get confused.

Again, I encourage you and empower you, Ask Source and Listen. You will be answered. I promise you this. Yes, I will guarantee it. I cannot wait for you to share this yourself. I know you will.

Forgive Julia, I went on, but I so want you to experience the Freedom of this Truth so you can really blaze new trails and enjoy the ride of this life experience.

Sending Love your way, Always in All ways,

Many Blessings, Be Well and In Joy the ride,

Julia

Juliainkc your very cute ; with the replies and all

Ah Baki,

You make me blush!! Thank you, just being your reflection.

I'm liking this shades thing!

Many Blessings, Be Well and In Joy this day,

I like picking on you  wink. My way of saying I care I guess cool

Well I guess it all just balances doesn't it!? 

Hello Darrell and Tessa,

Thank you for your loving words Tessa.

Darrell, all I will say is that I honor your Wisdom and Insight. Again, it is truly an honor to share this Universe with such Ones as you.

Thank you for sharing such a loving and gracious and forgiving Spirit and attitude with all.

Namaste, WithIN Love,

Julia

Good Morning Tessa,

thank you as always Julia, you make me realise the reason behind my feelings and make sense of it all for me smiley I guess I have to learn not to 'judge' people who don't feel the same as me 'forgive them for they know not what they do' is perfect, yes, very right.  I feel I need to show people what it is they do but i know this cannot be done, need to stop getting frustrated with it all x

You are warmly welcomed Tessa. We reflect one another. I am encouraging you and empowering you to know without a doubt that we all 'get there'. It's a promise. Not if you do this or that. It's more of one way or another you will always find your way home. The Lights are on, the table is set and we all go in together.

In Joy this day, KISS and hugs,

Julia

[Yes - allowance is crucial because we are all here for different purposes and to gain different experience. What might seem or look strange to one person might be perfectly normal for another.]

Dear Adrian,

I just saw you in another room!!

Yes - allowance is crucial because we are all here for different purposes and to gain different experience.  What might seem or look strange to one person might be perfectly normal for another.

Some of our objectives are to guide and help people to think for themselves. I do this when these representatives from various religious groups show up at the door to sell their religion. I always respect their beliefs but ask various subtle questions.

I agree one hundred percent. I already went through the representatives of various religious groups experience in my formative years. They kept bringing Higher up elders in and it was quite interesting. Those were the days when I still carried my sword.

What did come from having this experience is that it caused me to Ask deeper questions about what Truth was because obviously everyone thought they had it!! Why would I be deceived into thinking that I only had the answer. Why would one 'burn' in hell for believing otherwise which is a question I had had since a younger child. I began to see the similarities and investigate the differences and Asking for Wisdom beyond man's ways of being wise. I wasn't finding the answers based on man's understanding.

Of course the answer, if an answer is forthcoming, is that they did not choose the religion, but rather follow it because their parents and relatives going back generations also follow it and they never thought to question it. They are simply following their parents or the wishes of their parents.

You will find members of some religions go back many generations - over hundreds of years in fact - but would never consider an alternative.

This is true of my family as well. Because I was seeking answers from a Divine Source, I was given the opportunity to investigate the founding beliefs of my biological family and allowed to go back and be around my family that I became aware of their 'humanness.' I had a conversation with my grandmother before she transitioned about why God said one thing and allowed another according to the Bible, which she had studied for over 60 years. She didn't have an answer, in fact she said she didn't get it either and the Bible confused her sometimes but because 'God said it' in the Bible, and the Bible is true then she just accepted it. Another shift and continuing education in my ongoing evolution.

If we can help these people to think for themselves then we have achieved something. When I showed him the inner meanings of Jesus teachings and how great Jesus was he changed completely and seemed very open - he was clearly already questioning his own beliefs.

I suggested that instead of reconciling the Universe to the Bible, he might find it far more fulfilling to start with the Universe and Universal Truths, and then see where the Bible agrees with it.

Yes, I agree, we keep trying to make God in our illusive image. Truth does not change. It is we who must change our minds and our thinking must be measured by Truth not the other way around. Took me awhile to get this and it is forever changing my mind because because I still am in this reality with an expiration date learning about One who never has, never will Expire.

In Lak'ech, In Love and Light,

Julia

Good Morning Adrian,

I truly appreciate you sharing this as well as Darrell and Cosima. I only wish to add to what is being shared here as I feel this is an area many including myself have been confused and condemned by.

I once, like Darrell and Cosima, thought that to be forgiving as in turning the other cheek meant that I was to stand there and allow anyone or anything to pound one into the ground, could do or say anything they wanted, and I just had to take it with the promise that I would bounce back up. You know, a vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord thing.

Well, evolving and progressing is interesting in that it tends to broaden this one's view by being presented with the opportunity sometimes over and over again to get down to the True meaning of Forgiveness which 'colors' my whole view by affecting my outward picture based on my Inner knowing.

My Peace came and continues to be maintained when I remain True to myself. It is in doing unto others as you would have others do to you, backwards it would be said do unto yourself as you would have others do unto you and reflect back in kind. In my own understanding of this statement, it has been by realizing that I must have honor for myself, self-respect and when I acknowledge this within myself I am expressing this to my outer picture because this is truly who I am.

I had the opportunity recently to learn yet again of this Truth. And finally, I felt the release as I acknowledged my 'accusers' an illusion of my false self and turned and said, "No more." It's not real, this isn't who I am." They responded by rejecting me and saying goodbye as in we'll not have anything else to do you. Was I crushed? Absolutely not. Thank God!! I felt a shifting inside and what I felt was a deep Peace. The whole atmosphere changed in my home once they left and I knew I had found what I so afraid to receive before. Another chapter closing in my 'life'. It feels wonderful and freeing. All is Well. Not really an ending, just another new cycle of beginning from Zero.

I just wanted to share this as I believe there may be others who confuse the meaning of True Forgiveness with not understanding the difference between condemnation and never having confrontation. Two totally different meanings.

I appreciate you all,

Many Loving Blessings, Be Well and In Joy this day WithIN Love,

Radiating Love and Light,

Julia

Dear Adrian,

I just reread this post between you and Melody and my last comment. I meant this when I read through it the first time because I saw myself in Melody's position at one point and had and continue to shift in my beliefs to what you are sharing here. I find it interesting as I have shared in other posts that there is a big difference between holding onto one's beliefs and holding onto Truth.

Wow! I was in error here about semantics. By the way everyone, it just goes to show you that Adrian allows others to believe whatever they want to in the moment and chooses not to argue. I appreciate you the more I get acquainted with you Adrian.

You pretty much said it here in Light of the other posts currently going on in the Forums.

Thank you.

In Love and Light and Truth,

Julia

Dear Julia,

Excellent contribution and well said.

It is true that we all realise God at a Subconscious level - this is why most Law of Attraction methods use Subconsciousness to approach Source - Universal Mind.

If we did not realise Source, God to some extent we would not exist.

What I was referring to was consciously realising, connecting with and expressing Source, rather, as with many, on a level where there is no awareness.

As I mentioned before - the full conscious realisation of Source is one of the highest states a human can achieve in a physical existence - Jesus, Buddha and all "Ascended Masters", a reason they are "Ascended" achieved this.

In Love and Light,

Adrian.

Thank you Adrian, I do understand and as always I appreciate you and your excellent Insights and Wisdom.

Sending Love your way In Love and Light,

Julia

Thanks for the love and meal smiley. It was most appreciated cool

You are always warmly welcomed Baki. Keep the questions coming. Feedback is great!!

In Joy the rest of this weekend,
