The first thing that you will notice when you begin to pay attention is that all of a sudden you are connected to something else that is very much aware of you in more ways than you can imagine.  This is a two fold process.  The adage as above so below applies completely in this case.  Your awareness is only as complete as you allow yourself to become noticed.  The revelation is a totality of being.  You seek connection and yet just as fervently connection seeks you.  Imagine that you are attaching yourself above while simultaneously you are being beckoned from this same above.  

When you reach up it reaches down.  Keep this in mind in your prayers since it is all too easy to ignore the connecting link by going too far along while never noticing the downward flow of questing that touches you along the way.  It cannot be explained further than this except for elucidation of these main points endlessly.  That my friends is how it works.  

Your understanding seeks the undefinable and the undefinable seeks expression as defined.  You can keep asking the same questions but sooner or later you’ll need to have the answers revealed to you.  This sooner or later is exactly the moment of connection and as it occurs all things are revealed above and below.  That is why you make the attempt in the first place so that you will recognize the unity of your asking and the corresponding response of the answer at first a feeling and then the feeling sheds itself around arising all through you to bring about the pathways of enlightenment.  These pathways are guides for your feelings to flow into all through your body and yes everywhere inside of your worldly experiences.  

Your thoughts are a mirror of its expression and like a mirror they aren’t quite exactly the same but with concentration and letting go you are able to become the expression and cast the mirror aside living for the unity of purpose that bring you and that connection together.  We speak about it as one and the other but in reality they are really a part of the very same thing.

Watch with interest then this up and down flow of who you are.  See this with an open heart for it is here that every connection is verified and witnessed as the truth of your being.  It is this truth that stays with you throughout each day and defines the kind of person you have chosen to be.

It is not permitted to speak about Will but I can allude to some of its qualities.  It is not permitted because knowledge without understanding can be a dangerous thing.  I could tell you exactly what you need to know but it is the nature of Will that you find it out for yourself.  I can tell you that finding out is the most awesome experience you will ever encounter.  There are some who are not ready for this so I would advise reading no further.

Of course you just have to see what comes next after that mini buildup.  Why? It is because one of the properties of Will is a questing after the unknown.  It seeks to become that which is not. 

What is Will for?  It is to move you from a place you don’t want to be into a place you have set your sights upon.  When it moves the entire Universe is transformed. 

Will operates through thoughts, words and actions.

All this is well and good and now on to our feature story. 

Nontika is a being in the over dimension called Simply Wonderful.  She is not sure of what she wants to be when she undergoes her next transformation.  Her thoughts and visions of what this could possibly be are supporting seven hundred million nether dimensions that happen to be at thirty degree angles to one another.  While the degree of their orientation might appear to be insignificant on further analysis you will see the vast insights that brings into focus.  Because of one of these insights Nontika is almost ready to make decision.  This is a momentous occasion. Once she has even the inkling of a decision she is already on her way leading to a whole cascade of events some predictable and others entirely outside of the box of anything anyone anywhere could imagine. 

I am a reporter for the Galactic Interface Continuum.  The fact that I am here at all is another story perhaps one day I’ll share it with you but for now I mustn’t even blink otherwise I’ll miss the entire thing.  One thing I can tell you is that it is a lot like giving birth; something I have a great deal of experience with.  I must tell you that this very assignment is the result of my last birth.  You are confused perhaps between giving birth and my last birth.  It is like this.  In order to travel between dimensions with your consciousness intact you undergo a series of births, awakenings from one dimension to another.  The giving of birth means that your birth inside of the awareness of a new dimension is for you an extension of your awareness but it also makes possible and this is the giving part the possibility for another entity to pass through into the realm of being you have just arrived from. Let just say that the universe has an open door policy.

Nontika stands.  She is radiant full of the colors of transformation.  Once begun the process is irreversible.  Simply Wonderful swirls around her slowly at first and then ever more quickly until she stands motionless in a blur of blissful awakening.  Let me share a personal note.  I am crying.  It is a sight and a feeling of such absolute clarity that I feel myself pulled towards this event even to the point of becoming absorbed by it completely.  Because I love my job and do not feel myself ready for such a massive transformation I maintain my objectivity, which is of course why I became a reporter in the first place.  With regret I turn away slightly.  It is enough for me to continue my observations. 

Nontika turns slightly nodding my way although it isn’t to me that she is gesturing to.  It is her acceptance of the new vistas that are arising before her as seas on a moonlit night catch the reflections of light and then are once again lost in the darkness where no light may reach.  This is what is happening to her as Simply Wonderful is being subsumed.  Whatever could she be looking at now?  Her face is beaming.  I don’t think she would be mind if we went in for a close up. 

Where is she going to become what she is feeling in this moment as the transformation begins to settle in upon her?  Can you imagine the most amazing things that are occurring to her?  Breathlessly I approach furiously reporting simultaneously translating into a multitude of transdimensional feeds.  I move carefully now for I mustn’t get too close.  Yes this feels really particularly intense. 

I can’t believe what I am witnessing.  This is a first.  As I live and breathe once again I witness the full horizons of the Perfect Day.  This is where she has set her first steps upon the mythical Perfect Day. 

I wish I could get closer but then I would be…Oh no it is already too late.  I am flowing right behind her.  I apologize to my audience but I think my days as a reporter are over.  Indeed at last I have lost my objectivity and become attached to the story I was reporting on. 

Still and this will have to be my final tagline; You know it really isn’t so bad being stuck on the Perfect Day.  You should try it sometime.  It couldn’t hurt. Besides.  Things will be looking up from here on in.

I’ve been thinking about light and how the connections of light are an integral part of our being.  I relate this light to the will of creation that flows through us taking forms of love, compassion, forgiveness, joy, sharing and giving.  The Course in Miracles says, ‘remove the blocks to love’s awareness.’  Yes remove-clear the opacity of your soul to let the light shine through.  This opacity is the main cause for illusion and misunderstandings.  Another word for this removal is to forgive ourselves from the things that bind us to our status quo or ordinary conventional thinking.  Today I concentrate on this light in this season of light.  A few references to light come to mind that reveal more…you guessed it, light.

The primary symbol of Chanukah is the Menorah.

Commentary:  It is the eternal flame.  The light that shines forever without any visible means or reason for continuing to do so it just does and that is the miracle that is celebrated here.  This is the light of holiness that each of us may open ourselves to.  Yes this time of year is perfect for the return of the light since it coincides with the Winter Solstice where the sun returns the days grow longer the light is more in our face.

Ex 3:2:And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush; and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.

Commentary:  Translate this as the thought of holiness appeared to the opacity of man revealing his own inner light in the form of a bush that was not consumed.  Of course the eternal flame that resides within us does not consume us because we are the result of this flame.  It is the clothing of this light in form that gives us our personality and purpose for being.  When we are off our game remember this light to reawaken everything that you are and to recharge those batteries of connection.

Gen 3:24 So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubim, and the flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way to the tree of life.

Commentary:

This is curious passage here.  Man is driven out of the garden. What is man?  Man is the opacity of form that obscures our way to the garden to the perfection of our lives.  This flaming sword is a reminder that are we to return to the elegant state of being that we are descended from this sword will cut through our illusion which results in a return to this tree of life.  What is the tree of life?  It is our source that we are never separated from the well of light is where this source emanates from taking the form of life, which is the form of man learning to be transparent to light instead of resisting the light.  Do not fear that which would make you joyful, courageous, prosperous, giving, etc. because this is your birthright.  This tree of life is the template that you may return to in any moment. 

Ez 21: 3 and say to the forest of the South: Hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree, it shall not be quenched, even a flaming flame; and all faces from the south to the north shall be seared thereby.

Commentary: Especially here this is referring the magical properties of unification that reside within you.  The South is where magic or transformation comes from.  You are awakening this sense of ability that you have to transform your environment, your thoughts your life experiences everything is included here.  The faces from North to South refer to the template of your being and this is saying that this fire within consumes all that is not perfection.  

Ez 21: 4 And all flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled it; it shall not be quenched.’

Commentary:

Once again what is being kindled?  It is the Eternal Flame.  The LORD translate as the holiness of connection that rises up from within you due to your proximity and the sense of merging with this tree of life as your awareness grows through the unity of this connection.  Again that which comes forth from you is eternal and cannot ever be taken away. 

Gen:1: 3 And God said: ‘Let there be light.’ And there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.

Commentary:  Here is the first day.  Let’s call it the open awareness.  The first moment then when consciousness became aware of itself as an entity of projection.  What did consciousness become aware of this first day?  For one it became that it could see.  Perception was established.  What could it see?  Everything.  Light is full spectrum.  What else?  Ah that the light was good.  What does this mean?  Consciousness not only awakened but awakened to the fact that it could envision and be satisfied with that vision.  There is more.  This is what consciousness figured out that in addition to that which it had already discovered about itself there was more to be revealed.  That which was revealed was light and that which remained unrevealed was darkness.  In this way the paradigm was established.  You have an inspiration and follow through with all that can become out of this inspiration.  Then when this inspiration runs its course there is evening when the revelation is no longer new and you are ready for something else.  All night long you await what is to come which is of course morning when it all begins again.  Recognize here that there are four states of play, light, darkness, evening and morning.

Gen: 1:14 And God said: ‘Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years; 15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.’ And it was so. 16 And God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

Commentary:  Look at all of these lights.  From a simple let there be lights all the lights in our universe were formed.  We are connected to all of these lights as coming from that which resides within us.  What is the earth?  It is this form the eternal light resides within taking its cue from the tree of life that is the culmination of the thought of light passing in and through us. 

Isaiah 60: 1 Arise, shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. 2 For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but upon thee the LORD will arise, and His glory shall be seen upon thee. 3 And nations shall walk at thy light, and kings at the brightness of thy rising. 4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all are gathered together, and come to thee; thy sons come from far, and thy daughters are borne on the side. 5 Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall throb and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee. 6 The caravan of camels shall cover thee, and of the young camels of Midian and Ephah, all coming from Sheba; they shall bring gold and incense, and shall proclaim the praises of the LORD. 7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee; they shall come up with acceptance on Mine altar, and I will glorify My glorious house. 8 Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their cotes? 9 Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee. 10 And aliens shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee; for in My wrath I smote thee, but in My favour have I had compassion on thee. 11 Thy gates also shall be open continually, day and night, they shall not be shut; that men may bring unto thee the wealth of the nations, and their kings in procession. 12 For that nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted. 13 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, the plane-tree and the larch together; to beautify the place of My sanctuary, and I will make the place of My feet glorious. 14 And the sons of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee, and all they that despised thee shall bow down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee the city of the LORD, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel. 15 Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man passed through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. 16 Thou shalt also suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings; and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour, and I, the Mighty One of Jacob, thy Redeemer. 17 For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron; I will also make thy officers peace, and righteousness thy magistrates. 18 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. 19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. 20 Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. 21 Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. 22 The smallest shall become a thousand, and the least a mighty nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time. {S}
Commentary:  This one is just about the most awesome affirmation I’ve ever seen.  It is a prayer for abundance and the certainty that the light, the everlasting light will continuously shine forever.  Here it says ‘the LORD shall be unto thee and everlasting light.’  What this means to me is that our awareness of our innate eternal flame is what we must be attending to each moment.  Put aside if you will all descriptions of LORD or G-d and recognize that what is inside of you is eternal and a part of the unification of everything.  That is the light that always shines.

There are three states of consciousness.
One is called the Initiating Force.
Two is called the Maintaining Influence
Three is called the Quiescent Harmony
