Random acts
of violence will continue to provide karmic experiencing for all persons
involved, and it is to be expected that political and diplomatic negotiations will
bog down from time to time on the way to peaceful accords. You can expect more
arrests, firings and resignations in the international banking community and
some governments, and it appears that a shake-up in the Vatican is on the
horizon. Such disparate groups as churches, multinational corporations, civic
and school organizations and nonprofit agencies are cooperating in major
projects to expand educational and employment opportunities.
The
unstoppable stream of progress into increasingly lighter energy planes is being
aided by souls who are starting to ponder more deeply than day-to-day
functioning. These awakening souls are adding more light to the abundance
generated on Earth and showered upon the planet from distant sources, and each
new sparkle heightens vibratory levels. Your real estate industry talks about
the importance of “location, location, location.” Of infinitely vaster
importance to your world and all its residents is “vibrations, vibrations,
vibrations,” and helping to raise the vibrations is why you are there.
Thus, we
are eager to address readers’ questions that are stirring in the minds of many
other lightworkers, too. How can we know if we’re adhering to, or honoring, our
life contracts? What are the indications of fulfilling or failing in our life’s
mission? I am in despair about the millions who are in dire circumstances, but
what can I do to help them? Are we doing enough to help Earth herself? How can
I handle situations that are beyond my control, like decisions people make that
seriously impact my life? Others are asking how to help dear ones who resist
truthful information if it doesn’t support their narrow views and how to manage
debilitating illnesses or financial hardship.
While these
may seem to be quite different issues, the answers to all come from the same
all-powerful source: your soul.
So first we
say, the soul continuously sends guidelines to the consciousness to keep you
aligned with your contract choices. These guidelines, which are as clear as
neon signs pointing in the directions you chose, may come as words but most
often are strong sensations. When you are heeding your soul’s messages, in
heart and mind you feel as if you are flowing lightly with the current, so to
say—this is your soul saying “Good job!”Conversely, when your free will
decision, action or inaction goes against your contract, you experience
uneasiness and discomfort—you wish you had made a different choice.
The
lighthearted feeling of a “clear” conscience lets you know that what you did
was right; feelings of guilt, regret or remorse signify that it wasn’t. Be
aware that if the latter feelings are ignored time after time, the conscience
begins to atrophy and mean-spiritedness and apathy start to feel natural.
Instinct is
a spontaneous reaction to a situation that poses grave danger to you, a loved
one or a stranger, and acting instantly can be life-saving.
Using
intuition is a contemplative process of “asking within” for advice, then
stilling your mind. You may want to know, for instance, whether a particular
person is the best choice as a lifetime partner; if a proposed business venture
is in your best interests; when an investment of time, energy or money is wise;
if relocating or accepting a job offer is a good idea. As you contemplate any
of those kinds of situations or another matter of great importance to your
future, if the urge to act upon the idea becomes stronger, your soul is
speaking ever more loudly to motivate you to take relevant action. If
reluctance to take the next step persists, your soul is saying “Don’t do this.”
While
exercising your power of discernment is similar, it provides answers you’re
seeking at the moment. That could be whether it would be wise to share your
thoughts with someone, which information is the truth for you and which is not,
if silence about a matter is kinder than speaking up, does a particular
situation deserve your attention—that is, separating the trivial from the worthwhile.
Acting upon inspirations and aspirations leads to fields of endeavor and major
activities you chose in your soul contract. Being true to yourself in this
respect results in a gratifying sense of fulfillment whereas spending your life
doing what someone says you should instead of following your heart’s desire
brings restlessness and discontentment.
Why are we
telling you what you already know? Because, our beloved family, you aren’t
using that knowledge to the fullest! Questioning at deeply introspective levels
is extremely important indeed, and that huge step out of third density
consciousness is an arduous trek, to be sure. However, the next step—getting
your answers within—comes as easily and swiftly as you will allow. Within your
soul is all the knowingness, assurance, self-confidence, caring, wisdom and
strength you’ll ever need in this lifetime. Seek and ye shall find.
Now then,
you may be following your soul-level guidance to a “T,” yet are contending with
heartache, opposition, illness, financial hardships or other obstacles. Dear
ones, soul contract choices specifically include those kinds of challenges.
Without them there could be no learning, no soul growth, and the control you
have over whatever you encounter is your reaction to it. Along with soul-level
guidance, you have more inner strength than you can imagine and an unlimited
capacity to love and forgive; to feel grateful, compassionate and patient; to
share generously, act honorably and stride forward from momentary setbacks.
Many of you
volunteered to experience difficult health or economic issues or other harsh
circumstances specifically to benefit others. As you manage adversities with
determination and strong spirit, you serve as a beacon of encouragement to
people struggling with similar situations, and by exemplifying the power of
your innate resources, you inspire them to tap into their own.
The
universal law that each person is accountable for only her or his choices never
means being indifferent to family, friends and colleagues who are dealing with
hardships. You don’t know if they have veered from their contracts or if they
are following them to the letter in matters that affect their lives and often
yours, too. Pre-birth agreements, which are made with unconditional love, are
designed to benefit all participants in the shared lifetime; and to advance in
spiritual and conscious awareness, some must choose situations that are indeed
difficult for themselves and often for others as well. Usually it is only in
retrospect that people realize how much learning they derived as a result of
others’ actions and decisions.
The vast
majority of the many millions who are living and dying in unconscionable
circumstances are completing karmic lessons so they can evolve. And, as parts
of the Oneness of All, they are offering your society a great opportunity for
learning and spiritual advancement, and it is not by feeling despair for them.
The law of attraction is in constant operation, and because it has no reasoning
ability, it can’t distinguish between what you want and what you don’t want, so
it brings back more of the energy that matches your desperate thoughts and
feelings.
If it’s
possible to participate in or financially support organizations that are
working to improve conditions in areas where help is so greatly needed, do so.
But for the many of you who cannot, please know that feelings of compassion for
those who are suffering and gratitude for the blessings in your life are
light-filled, and the more light within you, the more light you radiate into
the world for the upliftment of all souls.
Every time
you perform an act of kindness, feel joy at seeing a baby’s first smile, glory
in the beauty of a sunset or tend to an animal in need, you are helping Earth.
Those kinds of feelings and actions are filled with the light that is helping
Gaia’s planetary body heal from millennia of abuse and neglect, and visualizing
Earth in golden-white light always is a wonderful way to lift the vibrations.
A reader
asked if deafness is chosen as a karmic lesson, can it be completed so the
person can gain hearing ability in this lifetime. The answer applies as well to
all physical and mental deprivations, loss of organs and limbs, and chronic
diseases. Those kinds of conditions were chosen as soul evolvement
opportunities for the individuals and their caretakers, and a change depends
upon the soul contract—does it include a reversal of the condition? If so, two
factors apply. If the person is young and chose a long life span, the condition
can incrementally change when the planet reaches higher energy planes. The
other factor is the degree of light within the person. A body’s healing
mechanisms are activated by light’s high vibrations, and the vibratory level is
in accordance with the person’s positive or negative thoughts, feelings and
actions.
Now I shall
speak for myself to answer more questions that arose from the message about my
lifetime as the biblical Matthew.
How will
the truth about the Bible affect Christianity? When truths are revealed about
the origin of the Bible’s information, open-minded Christians will eschew dogma
devised to control the masses and retain the spiritual part of their faith.
Radical interpretations of all religions will fall by the wayside and all
peoples will embrace the true spirituality that sings in the heart. Many
churches of various faiths have started to move in this direction.
You speak
with the ancient wisdom of an old soul. How old are you? No older than any of
you! The “ingredient,” so to say, of every soul is the love-light of Creator,
and since all souls throughout the cosmos have the same Beginning, we’re all
the same age in the timelessness of the continuum. Persons you think of as “old
souls” have remembered more about their personage lifetimes than “new” souls
have, and that collective experiencing comes forth as “ancient wisdom.” This
applies to children as much as to octogenarians, who have had many more years
to remember what they know at soul level, and it is a joy for us to see parents
recognizing and nurturing this wisdom in their youngsters.
What is the
real story about the Shroud of Turin? Sometime back in the eighth century
someone came across a length of linen that has been described as a burial cloth
with a man’s image. I don’t know who found it, and what I do know is no more
than you: Since its discovery, it has been an issue of scholarly debate and
testing with no conclusion. The Catholic Church hasn’t claimed it is the image
of Jesus, but many devout church members believe it is, and the shroud is
considered a religious icon.
Are the
souls at your station a “soul cluster”? Not in the sense that expression usually
is applied, to a group of souls who have shared many lifetimes together.
Simply, souls here have reached the same evolvement level through the
self-discovery process.
Could a
remote viewer pick up your Apostle Matthew lifetime? Yes, it is possible, but I
can’t imagine anyone with that capability having sufficient interest to search
the continuum for it. As I mentioned in the last message, that lifetime isn’t
at all notable in a universal context.
Let me
speak a bit about remote viewing. Linear time doesn’t exist in the continuum,
so there’s no way to know if something is in stages of going uphill or down.
One remote viewer who wants to see Earth’s future may see a planet that appears
to be devastated and deserted while another may see a beautiful planet with a
flourishing environment, and both viewers think they are seeing “future” Earth.
Neither may be seeing actual Earth—parallel worlds also exist in the continuum,
which compounds the complexity of determining what actually is being viewed.
Do you speak
for all souls there because you and your mother speak English and the others
don’t? No. All of us are familiar with all of your languages and dialects as
well as the spectrum of musical tones and colors that are modes of
communication in many spiritually advanced civilizations. Also, there is an
unerring electromagnetic translation system available to all souls throughout
this universe. This is known at soul level, and in your sleep state, some of
you may be communicating via that system. This can be with persons with whom
you have love bonds in this or other lifetimes in whatever language they speak
now or participating in meetings of various types of galactic or intergalactic
federations or universal councils.
Did you
choose your mother to send messages to because you two have shared many
lifetimes? The short answer is “yes,” but there’s more to it. My mother was my
first personage—we are like dots side by side on an infinite circle and
“operate” on the same high frequency. We have shared almost all of our
thousands of lifetimes as humans and other species in every relationship except
as enemies—we never wanted to play those roles and there was no disagreement
from others who shared the lifetimes. As for my sending messages to my mother,
she was a natural choice, and as part of our Ward family’s pre-birth agreement,
she agreed to clearly receive information that I and all the others would
transmit to her and she would handle the book publication and message
distribution tasks.
How and
when do you, Matthew, make a decision to embody another soul? Do you have
knowledge of this or does it just happen when source calls upon you? It is the
very same process for all souls. During the period in a spirit world between
embodiments, the soul reviews its immediate past life along with all of its
other personage lifetimes. The review reveals specific areas where the
cumulative knowledge hasn’t produced thorough learning as well as what is
needed for balanced experiencing. After the decision about choices for the next
embodiment is made, guidance may be offered by those who have mastered the
areas the soul chose for its personage, but it is the soul’s choice to accept
or decline assistance.
Let me
restrict this explanation to third density conscious awareness, where almost
always souls need and welcome guidance, and to lessons in dealing with
emotionsbecause those are needed especially by all souls of that evolvement
status. And, because your homeland planet is one of the finest schoolhouses in
its galaxy for emotional lessons, I shall use Earth and Nirvana for this
example.
Always fear
is the foremost emotion that must be dealt with—fear is what keeps personages
stuck in third density and unable to see beyond what is feared. Furthermore,
fears spawns the severest of negative traits and actions: greed, prejudice,
hatred, lust for power, jealousy, tyranny, desire to control others, deceit,
anger, dishonor, war-like mentality, corruption. Because it can take thousands
of lifetimes to overcome feeling fearful, souls choose that lesson in tandem
with one of the characteristics born of fear, and for this example it will be
anger.
You have a
course called “anger management,” Nirvana has a course that could be called
“anger replacement.” Time and again the soul is presented with situations that
have caused personages to react in anger so it can practice patience in those
situations, learn to consider them from other perspectives, and react calmly,
sensibly and constructively. When the soul and its advisers deem that practice sessions
have adequately prepared the new personage, the soul selects other parts of its
contract, then enters into a pre-birth agreement with souls who will be its
parents, siblings, mates, friends, mentors, and so forth in the shared
lifetime. The only relation to Source is the aim of every soul—reintegration
with God and whatever comes afterwards.
By omission
of details for the sake of brevity, my explanation of preparation may sound
more like punishment, and most decidedly it is not! Everything is done with
love and sensitivity—in the Oneness of All, advisers want the new personage to
succeed as much as the soul does—and practicing isn’t confined to an intense,
grueling short period. It can span several years and sessions can occur
whenever the soul wishes—advisers always make themselves available.
And, during
the soul’s residency in Nirvana, it has myriad non-practice activities to
choose from, such as traveling around the realm in whatever form of transport
it wishes. It can learn to manifest whatever it chooses, enjoy the company of
friends and family in the realm, work in meaningful positions, study whatever
it wishes, attend concerts and lectures by visiting masters, participate in the
arts or sports, telepathically communicate with beloved souls on Earth and in
other worlds. Life in Nirvana’s higher dimensions is sublime!
Reviewing
collective lifetimes may result in choices other than another Earth lifetime.
If a soul feels that its personages have mastered third density spiritual and
conscious awareness and advisers agree, its next personage can be born into a
fourth density civilization for advanced learning. Or, the personage can be
born on Earth to add its higher vibrations to the planet and help slumbering
souls awaken or serve the same way in a different civilization with third
density awareness—either way is an advancement in the soul’s growth. Also,
highly evolved souls who dedicated a lifetime to light service on Earth often
return to their homelands before choosing the next destination for continued
growth.
Are you
still in Nirvana or have you incarnated somewhere? Although I’m not residing in
Nirvana, I still think of it as “home base,” where I return occasionally and
briefly between visits to physical civilizations in this galaxy and others. My
service during the past fifteen years has been evaluating their spirit worlds,
which are their equivalent of Earth’s Nirvana, and assisting in the upgrading;
and wherever I go, I manifest a form that fits in with the populace. Some
civilizations live at frequencies where bodies no longer are needed, and in
third density worlds I produce a body with a high enough frequency to prevent
my becoming stuck in the lower vibrations of the people.
During my
visits to third density worlds and those that recently reached fourth, often I
am with souls whose vibrations also are higher than the civilization at large.
Always our purpose is to assist the people and their homelands in their
ascension process and always our presence is by invitation, in accordance with
universal laws. What many of you are doing for Earth is similar. You left your
worlds to answer Gaia’s cry for help, and although you are providing assistance
in diverse ways—including exemplifying the power of innate qualities and
strength—always your high vibrations are helping the planet and her residents
along their ascension pathways.
Throughout
your life’s journey, the companionship, unconditional love, respect and
admiration of light beings throughout this universe are with you.
