The Present Moment

Much has been written about “being in the now”, mindfulness, “being in the moment”, etc. I am going to add my personal experience of this wonderful topic and accessing that state of being here. There are many ways to “access” higher consciousness, which is our natural state – being in the moment is just one. …

The Importance Of Study

Sustaining a spiritual path in the world in which we live requires that we use all the tools at our disposal. One of the most valuable of those tools is the study of spiritual lessons. I learned this many years ago in a previous activity where study was highly recommended. For Ascended Master students this …

Division vs Oneness

In light of my recent post on duality and polarisation, have you noticed the increase in division in society around the world? One religion against another, one race against another, one political persuasion against another, rich vs poor etc., etc., and all in ever-increasing frustration and outrage. All of these parties have at least one …

Duality and Extremism

Following on from my previous post about duality and polarisation I would like to take a look at duality and extremism. Extremism occupies a position on the continuum of polarisation and is usually seen in the context of views held and maybe even actions taken on social, political and religious beliefs. The people who are …

Duality and Polarisation

The world of duality comes in many flavours and degrees. At the present time we are witnessing a dramatic increase in polarisation – positive on the one hand and negative on the other. On the spiritual level an example of the positive side is the increase in the number of people working for the good …

Duality

Does duality have a purpose? The world is “full” of it – is there any benefit from it? Is it time to find a better way of being? Before discussing any purpose it may have I would like to describe duality in action in our lives, in the world. Duality allows us to see ourselves …

Freedom

I would like to address the topic of freedom, something that I think is in decline in the world. How do people normally define freedom? From the media it can be inferred that people see freedom as being able to say whatever it is that they desire to say and the freedom to do whatever …

The Lie In Unworthiness

Before discussing the lie in unworthiness it would be helpful to look at the apparent truth in it. It seems logical that if we err in some way that we may or should be subject to feelings of unworthiness. In the hypothetical example of someone who has, shall we say, made a serious error in …

I AM Presence

The Ascended Masters speak of our I Am Presence, more commonly known as our Higher Self. So what is our Higher Self and why would we refer to it as our I AM Presence? Our Higher Self is the aspect of us that always remains pure, beyond the dominant duality consciousness of earth, beyond all …

Four Lower Bodies

The Ascended Masters speak of our four lower bodies. Starting at the “lowest” these are the physical, emotional, mental and identity bodies. These are the levels that are especially relevant to our work while in a physical body. While it is important to work on all four levels as much as possible there is a …

Saint or Sinner

I would like at the very beginning of this project to begin by looking at the practice of many spiritual seekers of viewing themselves as sinners and the probable consequence of feeling unworthy. I don’t wish to be unnecessarily dramatic; what I mean by “sinners” is the habit of viewing ourselves as being flawed, as …
