Being a child of your own heart

Unusually we had a meeting here last Tuesday and when the questioner spoke to John about being and working in this world, John spoke that it matters little what you do in this world and "that first you are a child of your own heart and from there a student of your deeper levels."  A little later on he said, "This world will pass away, while you - with all of your deeper levels - continue .."  Towards the end of that meeting his transmission was so strong that when he walked off the stage many of us were left still somewhat glued to our chairs. 

Alas he's off globetrotting again, about to give a four day retreat in Netanya, Israel - and I miss him already.   Although, for those of us not able to be there, at least we can keep in touch via the wonderful webcasts - and for more information on that, please click here.

Meanwhile, being as we are still alive, we continue to get plenty of opportunity to evolve in daily life by opening and softening in our heart, especially when life triggers patterns in the accustomed self and there is the tendency to close and harden, to justify and point the finger.  In choosing instead to open and soften within, we can learn to be a child of our own heart, putting the greatest value on learning how to sustain that sweetness within, in the midst of what isn't like that, in this world ...

Until next time,

No longer being a student of this world

Here at Knowledge College,

we are learning a very different modality, as awareness,

to that which pervades this tired old world ...

 

Having been relatively silent in meetings of late, John was in fine form on Sunday afternoon, giving us a great discourse on the deeper levels of our Being and how that requires the giving up of all personal power and no longer being a student of this world ...

"The surface levels of your Being,

as you come into them,

are not an affront to the middle ground in your self

- the deeper levels of your Being are.

The deeper levels of your Being,

as you are called into them,

bring you into the power of your Being.

As you come into the power of your Being

you cannot retain any personal sovereignty.

That's where you do,

within your middle ground,

come to the end of your road."

 

John went on to describe how you cannot come into your deeper levels with anything of a split; with any ties to personal use of power.

                                Being one with what you Know is the way ...

 

"When Knowing masters you

there are no longer two masters.

For you to be all of reality within, Knowing

on every level needs to master you

- and then you are your Being -

the surface levels all the way through to the deepest levels."

*

"As you come into the deeper levels of your Being,

you cannot keep what this world

and it's student mean to you

- your accustomed self is a student of this world -

fashioned by it and made for it."

 

We are learning all the time here from the moment we are born, and yet it's not until we come across a True teaching that we can begin to uncover reality from within our own deeper levels within - that we begin to discern what is actually True, rather than the accepted mass belief system, handed down through the generations.  I said to someone the other day (before the start of the above meeting), that what we are doing here is "the cutting edge of humanity" and that's truly how I see it.  This short window of time here with John, attending (Real and all Deeper) Knowledge College is magical, challenging and so deeply good - above all, it's such an opportunity ...

 

Until next time,

Love,

Magic from the Mountains

Dear ones, sorry that this week's Post comes to you a day late but I'm only just now back from the six day retreat in the Rockies with John.. it was good and it went so fast!  The standouts this year were ... the weather! we were super lucky and had lots of sunshine and very little rain .. and then, John's transmission - which was intense to say the least at times .. Here's some direct quotes from John over the last six days at Nordegg:

"The less you have on the surface,

the more you come to a point

and that's because you know what it's all about."

*

"As soon as you tighten

the gold can't be made. "

*

"Want and need

disturbs the natural movement of your Being."

*

"Without your personal seeing

- you fly ..."

*

"When you're really listening,

you love ..."

*

"Read me,

and what you're developing, moves."

*

"In and in, all else is behind you."

 

Until next time,

Love,

Shanti



Let's go camping!

Yay!  It's Nordegg time and we're off on our big annual school trip to the Rocky Mountains for six awesome days with John.  A much anticipated event, we've all been looking forward to it and this year it's even bigger - and no doubt going to be better - than ever.

The meetings here in Edmonton which have occurred since the new school year began have been pretty special and my sense is that John's been providing us with a wonderful precursor for this year's camping trip.  As we continue to open and open and open to what is New  - especially thanks to what John makes available (and our response of course!) - it is truly a magical ride, unthinkable and, well simply the best!  There's no where else I'd rather be, than learning and growing and changing under his guidance.

For those of you who cannot be with us in Nordegg this year, I'm sure there will be all sorts of recorded goodies available to share with you afterwards.  And that will probably include some magical mountain snippets from me in next week's Post too ...

Until next time,
(and don't forget your hot water bottles!)
Love,
Shanti

Opening to what is New

Mmm, school is back on and that first meeting with John on Sunday afternoon was really special.  During that meeting his transmission brought something quite new and delightful into the meeting hall and I enjoyed everything about it.  To me he parted the curtains, so to speak, within reality, revealing a new dimension, a space most enticing to the deeper levels within; inviting a much deeper level response.  And he brought in another exquisite transmission towards the end of last night's meeting too, and there was so much light pouring from him, lighting up the whole stage ...  At such times, he makes it so easy to become acquainted with the deeper levels which, although so palpably manifest by him without, can only be realized by a most subtle attunement within.  And of course, once initiated into a deeper realization of the Truth, it's up to each of us then to live it ... 
It's so awesome how it all keeps on opening and opening; a never-ending cosmic ocean of wondrousness!  And John is such a powerful agent in his ability to make manifest heretofore unseen levels of reality - the quintessential magic act of all magic acts, here in this world!   There's nothing like it on this Earth ... 
So school is back and all I can say really is, Mmm ..!

Until next time,
Love,
Shanti

Never Give Up

OK so there you were about to come to Earth and have a life, full of difficulty and opportunity to evolve.  For this Earthly journey you needed a body - which is a bit like looking for a used car - and let's face it, as you looked down (hopefully!) the choice of vehicles was, well, what it was - there wasn't an abundance of Rolls Royces, was there?  So don't be too hard on your self - it wasn't meant to be easy.  As such, no matter what comes up as you 'drive along' it is good to remind yourself to never give up.  Even if sometimes it feels as if you're never going to get there ...

In the quest to become as one's own Being, as you drive along your own personal route on this planet, it seems like there is a never-ending stream of things to look at; things to deal with and integrate into what is more deeply known to be True within.  Indeed, it is all an inside job in that sense.  Certain situations may call for a multi-levelled response but in that, what always needs to come first is the opening and softening within, before taking action without (that's all about responding verses reacting).

So as life beautifully continues to offer up situations which trigger whatever we are usually able to cover up and not deal with or look at, the real opportunity of being in a body and having a life can be made the most of - with honesty and correct alignment within; by believing what you honestly Know is True.  To believe otherwise is to fool yourself; to belong body and soul to the Matrix.  But it does seem to me that the days of the old Matrix are numbered as we, more and more, begin to awaken to what is outside of that old Matrix.  So it's not about trying to avoid difficulties and pain but rather what you are choosing in the midst of such situations.  In all of this, it's wonderful for sure to have a teacher of Truth and also to have trusted friends with whom you can confide and perhaps also from whom to receive helpful guidance - but the fact is that it is up to you and only you to make whatever choices you make in this, your most personal journey on Earth, called your life.  To bring more awareness to all of your choices is necessary to bring your awakening into form and to make it practical - whether you're deciding whether you really want another cup of coffee to making much larger decisions.  It feels to me that we live in times of such golden opportunity that making real change - that is, change which originates from what you more deeply Know is True within - has never been more doable; you can do so much so quickly now.  In a sense, it all becomes relatively uncomplicated once you see just what an inside job it all truly is - simply put: are you being and doing what you Know?  In your daily living, in all the small and mundane acts, in your manner of speaking, your actions ...  And of course it can seem like an overwhelming challenge at times and that's when it is so good to remember to never ever give up!

As the start of the new school year here in Edmonton looms large, with meetings resuming this coming Sunday, my wish is for each and every one of Us to truly and marvellously choose to be and to do what we most deeply Know; to support real Knowledge within - as always, with openness and softness of heart leading the way ...

Until next time,
Love,
Shanti

Far Out!

I just checked my calendar and - far out - the new school year starts in about a week and a half!  Wow, this summer break sure is whizzing by - and, as I ponder the prospect of More from John and the meetings and our response, it does feel kind of exciting.  We certainly live in unprecedented times, not least of all in terms of the opportunity to transform our consciousness, and there is a veritable quickening of such on this planet at present ... 

In the loss of that familiar middle ground, we get to choose the Good - ever quicker! - to choose what we Know the Truth of in our hearts - dare I say, in preparation for what is coming ...  Loving the truth; silently building and responding to deeper Knowledge within and opening to new deeper level abilities - it's all a labour of such Love ...   And as we continue to prepare and to respond, especially to what John makes so deliciously  available,  I'm  keen to see just how far out we get to go next ...  Meanwhile, it's good to stay in touch in various ways, including listening to John on a daily basis, and do-be-do-ing whatever works! 

Dear ones, that's about it for this week,

Until next time,
Love,
Shanti
