Recently we
have been talking about what happens in the karmic cycle. You all know what
that feels like because it keeps coming around, and you know it to be yourself.
The cycle continues until we say, “Enough,” or until we say, “There must be a
better way; I’m going to look around and try something else—to pray, to
meditate, or to be more peaceful.” It is possible to do this. But you all know
that in order to do this, it takes some momentum. You have to build up some
momentum inside of yourself in order to be able to break the wall of yourself
because that’s the only wall that needs to be penetrated. The wall of yourself
is inside of you with all the places that have become habitual, rote, and
unconscious; they are the places that are comfortable, knowable, and reliable.
You have to
build up some momentum in order to be able to go to a new level, to bring in a
new consciousness, and to be able to realize yourself in a different way. The seat inside of consciousness, inside of
us, that will always bring us closer to being able to break the swing of the
poles of duality, is seated in the third eye. It is the seat of consciousness in our vibrational
human constitution and our energy body that has the potential to bring us into
oneness. This seat can take us out of
doubt, out of questioning, and out of any of the energies or qualities of duality: good, bad, yes, no, why, why not—all
of the spinning and all of the back and forth.
When you can
bring yourself to that place, that’s when the potential exists for you to build
up the momentum in your practice to be able to transcend the wall or the
barrier of yourself so that you can see with your third eye. That’s why we
close the eyes and go within, so that we can access our third eye which can see
through the eyes of God. It sees oneness, it sees peace, it sees all of the
qualities that are of the mind of God.
If you want to
dissolve your karma, you must dissolve your position, whatever that position
is, because your position is either “one” or the “other.” So as you dissolve your position, you give it
over to your higher self, the part of you that knows oneness, the part of you
that calls you there and can bring you to the consciousness of God. But you have to build up momentum; you have
to be able to bring yourself into a frequency frequently enough to transcend the duality that you get stuck in,
that place where we just keep recycling over and over again. You must engage
your will with the divine will. Your personal will has to get married to the
will of the Goddess, to the will of God. When you do that, you’ll be cooking.
You’ll create the momentum that you need, and you’ll succeed in bringing in
that which you truly want, that new awareness.
Praying is
another way because your prayers come from your heart. When you close your eyes
and you pray and other people pray, our hearts open and we realize how similar
we all are, how simple we all are, and how we really want the same things. Praying helps us to build the momentum we
need to overcome fear and doubt and frustration, and the lack of forgiveness
that we have for ourselves and for others.
So return
frequently to the resonance of the stillpoint. It’s so simple! You just close
your eyes, you sit down, you relax the body, and you breathe. You just begin to
breathe the breath. And from that point, you can continue with the breath, you
can chant a holy name, you can chant a mantra that you’ve been given, you can
do anything that keeps your mind focused on the resonance of the stillpoint,
focused on God. And when you are most challenged, when you feel really stuck,
you have to pray harder. You have to put
some fire in your prayers, and you really need to deeply connect with yourself,
or maybe you need to spend more time in meditation, or maybe you need to build
that fire outside and sing and stamp your prayers into the earth as you’re
praying. You need to do whatever it is
that you need to do.
Your prayers
are so needed. I’ve never seen such laziness in the mass consciousness, and the
laziness is the result of fear. The levels of fear are higher than they’ve ever
been, and I think that the fear paralyzes people and creates a kind of lazy
complacency. So your prayers are needed—your prayers for yourself and your
prayers for others. I really do believe, that despite what we see and despite
what it looks like, anything is possible, anything
is possible, and I choose to believe that fully and wholeheartedly. And
whatever you need to demonstrate that to yourself—come on over and walk on
fire!—demonstrate it to yourself so that you break the wall of yourself. Find your prayer in your heart and breathe
into it so that it’s a living fire and flame, so that it has some action and
some passion to create the momentum that you need.
As you create the momentum, you bring
everybody else with you because that’s how it works. Those people who are
around you will catch your slip stream; they’ll catch your
slip stream, and they’ll be healed by it without anybody knowing
anything. It just happens, and you know it when it happens. You see it in all
of the many ways that you all touch people in your lives. So go into the resonance
of the still point, go into the one eye that is unified and bring yourself
there frequently so that you can build up the momentum that you need to break
the wall of yourself. And do not be afraid to do this over and over again
because it is the nature of the soul, it is the nature of the soul work to meet
ourselves there, all of the time.

Follow the Fire
The soul
does the work. Cape
Breton was such a
powerful, powerful sequence in time. The temples were there waiting in the etheric,
and they took me and they used me, and all I had to do was to follow the fire.
That’s all I had to do. I didn’t have to worry about anything else; I had a
personality that was under control enough to fulfill the worldly prerequisites
like attracting the money, coordinating the building, finding the pieces of
land, designing, and then building. For the purpose of light. Only for that.
You have
all had times in your lives when your soul was driving; your soul was in the
driver’s seat. You allowed it to take over, and you allowed it to take you
somewhere. You remember it, and you know
it. You can return there.
