Welcome to your Newsletter - I do hope you have a Truly Wonderful Week.

As the Great Transition inexorably continues anyone and everyone could be involved at some level.  Service is not only the preserve of the few - everyone can and should participate if we are to ensure the best possible outcome in the next few years.

A great Spiritual Guide from the Inner Spheres is quoted as saying:

“If you succeed in enabling one soul in darkness to find the light, one troubled, wearied individual to gain strength, if you comfort one mourner, if you heal one sick person, if you prevent exploitation of and cruelty even to one animal, then indeed your earthly life has been well worth living. Never weary in the fight for the things that matter. This is the greatest of all fights, the eternal war against materialism, selfishness, these cancers that are festering in your world today and lead so many on to foolish paths where they perish in the darkness without a realization of the purpose for which they were born into the world.”

Do not be one who wastes their "life" on Earth, this truly Great and Divine opportunity, only to "perish in the darkness without a realization of the purpose for which they were born into the world”.

Fulfil your reason for Being, your destiny.

And do not stop with your Self. If every single person on Earth leads just one other towards the Light, then all humanity achieves the potential to reach the Light.

As it is however, the majority are still content to "not get involved" or to "leave it to someone else" or to focus on self-interest. All is not lost however. Even a few Self-less people can make a huge difference to human Consciousness and Evolution.

You can help to show others the Path by simply sending to everyone you know, family, friends, co-workers, anyone this Newsletter, that they may too enjoy the same opportunity that you have enjoyed, an opportunity to Evolve to the next level of Human Being - Homo Luminous - which is what this Great Transition is really about.

Whatever We Feel is True, Is True

Over the last few years in particular, especially thanks to the rise of the Internet and movies such as "The Secret", millions more people have become aware, at least to some extent, that far from being powerless, always at the "mercy" of circumstance, other people, "chance" etc, we alone are responsible for our own Life Experience.

Many now understand that Mind is all Powerful, and that as Divine Expressions of Source Mind, God" if you prefer,  we All have available All of the Infinite Power of Source Mind - which Truly is Infinite in every respect. We Are Source.

The question for many however, especially the millions who have "tried different methods" for "manifesting" something, or "creating their own reality", often without much success, is how this actually "works" in practice.

Well as I have been asked this question by many people, and listened to how they have approached Expressing their own Experience, or "creating their own reality", it is apparent to me that while understanding the nature and power of Mind at an academic level, most are still actually engaging the Conscious, rational, Ego sphere of Mind which is powerless in the context of "creating the reality" desired so much.

This is understandable, and no doubt arises from the fact that right from birth we are taught to interact with material things, "think for ourselves", "make decisions", "take actions" and so on, all of which are of the Conscious, rational, Ego sphere of Mind.

This leads to the belief that the only way to "achieve" something is by "doing" it.

Many people are of course aware of the "Subconscious Mind" and believe that by "programming the Subconscious Mind" they can "manifest their desires", which is typically approached through affirmations, creative visualisation and other methods.

Now in principle, conditioning the Subconscious sphere of Mind activity in this way can be very effective, since this Sphere of Mind directs the Infinite Power of Source Mind on a personal level, with the potential to Express any desired Experience.

However the frequently engaged approach of constantly repeating words or visualising a situation, will for many prove to be largely or completely ineffective.

Mind, Source, does not recognise "words" alone, whether in the context of affirmations, prayer or by any other human construct of "higher" communication.

Why is this?

Well quite simply affirmations, prayers etc alone are inherently dualistic in nature in that the words are directed or petitioned "to" something which is perceived to be external and bigger in some way, e.g. "Subconscious Mind", "God" and so on.

In reality there is no dualism - All Is One. So directing words "towards" some perceived eternal entity will be ineffective, and nothing worthwhile can be achieved.

This also applies to the use of physical actions directed towards some objective.

For example, many people in the world today are highly conscious of, and focussed upon the condition and appearance of their own physical bodies, as witnessed by the rise in "health clubs", "gym's" and other places where people go to "workout", often in the hope of achieving a body that people will admire, or appear more appealing to the opposite gender, as well of course as for simply "keeping fit".

Such repetitive actions are really the same as repetitive words, except in this case such actions are directed towards the physical body which is still a dualistic concept.

Mind has complete and absolute dominion over the Inner Expression of Source and Higher Self known as the physical body in every possible way, for example maintaining bodily functions including heartbeat, therefore blood circulation, digestion, body temperature and every other life-sustaining function of the body, all of which Mind facilitates automatically, right from birth and before, without any physical or conscious effort or instruction required. These are simply accepted.

If for example we stop for a moment and begin to think about the process of breathing, then we will become conscious of the need to breathe and can even become "short of breath" if we do not make that conscious effort to draw a breath.

If we are walking down a flight of stairs at home, something we would usually do several times every day, if we suddenly started to think about the process, e.g. which foot goes first and on what step, we could very easily trip and fall down the stairs.

What then does this mean exactly?

Well simply that, from birth, we accept such basic and "natural" actions as walking, breathing, and bodily functions as a matter of fact, without question, and therefore Feel, with absolute Faith that these actions and functions will always take place unless there are intervening circumstances such as illness or accident for example.

Again, we Feel that these basic bodily functions are self-evidently true.

It follows therefore that whatever we Feel about our body or Experience must also be true, and that our actual Experience will be in alignment with our Feelings.

This is still true for "positive" and "negative" Feelings, regardless of the Experience.

The state of humanity today is such that people generally have great difficulty in Feeling Healthy, Feeling Wealthy, Feeling Secure etc, but can very easily Feel negatively about their body in some way, Feel lack, whether it be money, possession, relationships and so on, and this is the reason why the actual Experience of such people must and does always reflect those Feelings perfectly.

So rather than defining Personal, Life Experience through Feeling Joy, Health and Abundance, many, through the indoctrination of family, society, religion etc define their Experience through misery and suffering. If a situation arises that does not conform to misery and suffering, it is often considered to be "too good to be true".

So it is not what we say or think that influences our Experience, it is How We Feel.

If we Feel for example think about "ageing", our body must and will reflect that state of Being perfectly in terms of physical appearance and health. Vanity products and drugs simply reinforce the Feeling of ageing, they can never resolve or reverse it.

As science and medicine has proven and fully accepts, the human body is being constantly rebuilt in every moment - some parts taking days to renew, others weeks or months, but after a few years we have a totally new body in every respect.

People only "grow old" because society assures them that it is inevitable, even going as far as to describe the aging process model for people to follow, birthdays with numbers of years, and fully supported by the countless vanity products on offer to people with "aging" or "beauty" issues,  which simply reinforce these Feelings.

No animal or other life-form worries about or Feels ageing, which is why they never appear to be "old" in the same way that humans do after they reach maturity.

We can demonstrate the power of Mind over body in many ways, not the least of which are through the numerous so called "miracle healings" that have taken place and continue to take place over the centuries, including those "patients" doctors considered to be "incurable" or "terminal", but then later considered to be a "miracle" when they are healed by the Mind of the patient without any medical intervention.

Many have heard of "placebo" drugs where patients are given a sugar pill and assured that it is the latest and greatest medicine, and who then "miraculously" recover their health completely, often much more quickly and much more profoundly than the corresponding patients who were "administered" the actual chemical drugs.

Even more profound examples can be found in the cases of "sham surgery". Here people who are seriously or terminally ill, for example by cancer or brain tumour, are told by doctors that they need an "operation" to recover health and "save their lives".

In the case of sham surgery the patient is given an anaesthetic after which the surgeon performs a deep incision in the body which is then immediately closed and sutured, appearing as a surgical wound without actually performing any surgery.

In many cases, again, as with the placebo drug, "terminal" patients experience a full recovery, very often more complete than the actual surgery patients who have been "operated on" incised, modified or removed by the surgeon.

What then does this tell us? Well quite simply that if the patient Feels that they have been healed, they actually are healed, and therefore Mind is the True Healing factor.

Even in the cases of people given chemical drugs and actual surgery, to the extent they recover health is still mostly a result of Feeling and Mind, how they Feel about their medical treatment, and not the nature of the chemical drug or surgery itself.

Of course these are examples which we do not wish to expose ourselves to.

An example which many if not most people are familiar with is learning to swim.

When a person decides to learn to swim, they do so from the belief that they cannot swim already, and therefore if they were to enter deep water they will immediately "sink" and inevitably drown unless someone jumps in to "rescue" them.

In fact "sinking in the water" is due only to the belief of the person that they will sink, because they cannot yet, in other words have not "learned" to "swim", a belief that is firmly implanted in the Mind of the person, and one in which they Feel is self-evident, because that is what they have been "led to believe" from infancy.

However, as that person "learns to swim" through taking swimming lessons and practice, they gradually gain Faith in their own abilities to stay afloat and soon to propel themselves through the water, until finally they become a proficient swimmer. They Feel that they can swim, and no longer in any danger of sinking or drowning.

Now if that same person who has learned to swim lies flat on their back in the water they will float rather than sinking as they Feel would happen before they could swim.

So what therefore has changed?

Clearly the water has not changed - it is exactly the same water as before the person learned to swim. The body of the person has not changed - it is exactly the same body as before that could not swim, the same body that would inevitably sink in the very same water just a few months previously.

The only factor that has changed in fact is the State of Mind of the person.

The only factor that has changed is that the person now Feels that they will float and can swim, rather than Feeling that they will sink and drown.

Nothing else has changed except that Inner Feeling.

But "sinking" or "swimming" is still a conditioned Feeling. People only Feel they will "sink" in the "water" and potentially "drown" in the "water" if they Feel they cannot "swim", because this is what family and society have taught them to be the case.

Now, if a very young baby, one who has not yet been indoctrinated into the ways and beliefs of society and physical world, was placed into a swimming pool, the baby will certainly float and probably even swim. No one has told the baby he or she will "sink" in the water, in fact a baby has no concept of "sinking" and therefore the Personal Mind of the baby, always acting in a "life-ward" direction, assures the baby will float and survive perfectly happily, even though the baby has not been "taught" to swim.

Before we "learned how to swim" we could not float, however much we tried, yet once we have learned to swim we cannot sink however much we try, even through all the physical factors remain identical. Sinking or swimming is an Inner Feeling.

The same applies to a child learning to ride a bike without "training wheels".

We see children falling from their bike time and again when learning, and nothing seems to enable them to maintain their balance, resulting in the child becoming frustrated and believing that they will never ride their bike. Then all of a sudden a friend of the child rides confidently by on their nice shiny new bike, at which point the child who was learning mounts their bike and sets off with ease without falling.

In this case the child observes that riding, balancing and remaining on the bike is perfectly normal, but falling from the bike is abnormal, impressing this on the Personal Mind which then Feels it can ride a bike with ease and does so effortlessly.

There are numerous other such examples. The "difference" is the Inner Feeling.

In the movie and book "The Secret", one of the participants is involved in training astronauts and athletes. In one experiment he connected a series of athletes to advanced bio-feedback equipment and asked them to visualise their usual race in their Mind as if they were actually running the same race on the track. He observed that the muscles of the athletes and other bodily functions worked in an absolutely identical way, as if they were actually running the race. Mind simply does not know the difference between actual physical "practice" and the Inner Feeling of practicing.

Likewise, when people go to the Gym or health clubs every day and "work out" to exhaustion, very gradually gaining a muscular physique, feel healthier etc, it is not the actual physical exercise bringing it these changes, but rather the Expectation and Feeling of results being impressed upon the Mind, which Expresses the Expected and Felt Experience. People exercise their bodies expecting to become "stronger", and this expectation alone assures that they do indeed become stronger.

This is the accepted and widely adopted "no pain, no gain" mentality.

The fact is, Mind is infinitely capable of instantly bringing about absolutely any change in the physical body whatsoever, including a muscular, healthy physique, without ever visiting a gym or using any physical equipment or other exercise or workout processes, as with Perfect health, abundance and other Life Experience.

The gym, exercise equipment, swimming lessons, drugs, surgery  etc., are all "props" for impressing Mind with the desired result based upon Inner Feeling.

The same applies to excellence in any sport or activity as in Life Experience itself.

All we need is Feel Inherent Perfection, as if already a fact, and so it must and will be. This might sound "easier said than done", but the truth is the biggest barrier to overcome is actually Feeling that whatever we wish to achieve is already True, after years of believing that it can only be achieved through physical effort.

All "success" and "excellence" - Experience - begins and ends in the Mind.

So how then does physical exertion, repetition and practice "make" champions?

Well look at the facts.

If we take any popular sport, hobby or pastime that does not require physical much exertion, and therefore the need to "build up the muscles, or "get physically fit" in order to achieve success and "progress through the ranks", we still see that such champions achieve their objectives through diligent and dedicated practice, even though this is not changing their physical body or "fitness" to any extent, if at all.

So what does this practice achieve? The Feeling of Progress, Belief in their own Abilities, and Faith in the Outcome. This "training" is of the Mind, not the body.

It should be clear then that we can Experience anything we desire through Mind alone, through Feeling that the Experience is already True - and it Is.

Dear Reader - Whatever We Feel is True, Is Always True - Is Our Experience.

I will conclude with this most appropriate poem, the author of which is unknown:

If you think you are beaten, you are;

If you think you dare not, you don't;

If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,

It's almost a cinch you won't;

If you think you'll lose, you've lost,

For out in the world you'll find

Success begins with a fellow's will

It's all in the state of mind.

Full many a race is lost

Ere even a race is run,

And many a coward fails

Ere even his work's begun.

Think big, and your deeds will grow,

Think small and you fall behind,

Think that you can, and you will;

It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are;

You've got to think high to rise;

You've got to be sure of yourself

before You can ever win a prize.

Life's battle doesn't always go

To the stronger or faster man;

But sooner or later, the man who wins

Is the fellow who thinks he can.

In this poem, replace the word "think" with the word Feel.......  And So It Is.

Until next Sunday, I wish you a most Joyful, Healthy, Abundant week.

Brought to You In Divine Love, Light and Service,

Adrian.
