Message from Beyond


As given to me this afternoon. I felt like it was for the NiNe, as well - Brenda

(Brenda)"Abraham, how am I?"

(Abraham) "You are superb! You are adored! You are a manifestor! Focus on dreams...ones that thrill you - give you chills. Those are ones that we can create together. You dream it from the chaos of the contrast. We become it - with the larger part of you - and send a forever beacon to attract you (in the physical form). Line up and allow this in a state of relaxed knowing and WHAM - it is manifested. Time is man-made so forget about the time and forget about the circumstances seen in front of you. These are only remnants of previous thoughts. Be in the midst of your dreams, in peace - even in the face of what is. Line up and bring forth your creation. It can happen...in your linear...in the following second. Make no mistake, this is how the universe operates. We know this for sure. So, get out of your own fear, doubt, envy and be the deliberate creator you were designed to be. That, for which you were ecstatic about from the non-physical. That which prompted the larger part of you to extend here physically. To thine own self be true."

An Afternoon At Lake Mead



After a wonderful session of "Laughing Yoga" with Vhan on Saturday, I was asked if I wanted to go to Lake Mead with Vhan and Noreen. We went back to their house and got some supplies and soon we were on the road to the lake. When we got there, I was told that we were on an old boat launch. There was no water in sight. This in and of itself was amazing to me, how Mother Nature works. There were plants where there was once desert and then a lake and now a sort of marsh. Vhan, Noreen and Jacks the dog lead the way and I followed. I was just in awe of how things have changed in the last 80 years. A lake that was over 100 feet deep at one time was now only a foot deep in certain spots and totally dry in others. My guides keep pushing on and I keep following them. We went much further than I thought that we would, but this was good since it was giving me time to get in tune with my surroundings. We kept making our way down, and at times I wondered if I would be able to make it back to the truck. A couple of times while I was walking close to Vhan and Jacks I almost fell, sliding on the mud. I had much better balance than I thought, or perhaps I was just letting the angels hold me up. At one point we were looking at what I called a miniature version of the rock formation that was used in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", I cannot remember what it was called, but it was a great sight. At this point we decided to head back.

While we were hiking I heard Native American Indian chanting. There was no one in sight. Did I just WANT to hear this marvelous sound? I feel I have some kind of connection with Indians, I just have not found the exact connection yas of yet. I was told by a reader once that I have been an Aztec and Native Indian in previous lives but I have not really explored this as of yet. It was then that I realized that I was hearing spirit. I was so in tune with this that it truly amazed me. I was so enjoying the sounds in my head. When we all stopped to have some water and an apple, I asked Vhan if he could hear the chanting. He said that he did and he also heard drums with it. I did not hear the drums but the chanting was loud and clear. It was also good to know that I was not alone in what I was experiencing, being kind of new to all of this. While we were sitting by the running water, I closed my eyes and went into a meditative state. The vision of a great Indian Chief came to me. He had a huge headdress that went down his entire back. He was doing a dance with the chanting. I never did get to see his face, it was only his backside that I could see. I pictured myself sitting in a circle with other Indians watching the Chief do his thing.

This was my first experience with this type of thing and it was truly wonderful!!! I thank Brenda for helping me to recognize the signs that I have been getting lately. I am becoming more in tune with them, and like everybody has told me, they are coming more frequently because of it. I was just very happy to have recognized what it was and did not just dismiss it, as I probably would have done in the past.

Maybe there is more happening from this attunement than I thought? Only time will tell.

Friday - The Law of Detatchment

Allow yourself and others the freedom to be who they are. Do not force solutions - allow solutions to spontaneously emerge. Uncertainty is essential, and your path to freedom.

- from The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, Deepak Chopra

Listen - to the voice within


"How do geese know when to fly to the sun?

Who tells them the seasons?

How do we, humans, know when it is time to move on?

As with migrant birds,

so surely with us, there is a voice within,

if only we would listen to it,

that tells us so certainly when to go forth into the unknown."

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross-author

I am listening and ever ready to fly. Noreen

Life is a Dance!

Life Is A Dance
by Eileen Bennett


One of the most important lessons I've learned is that life is a dance.

Sometimes you lead and sometimes you follow. When you lead, you do it gently, firmly and clearly, and when you follow, do you so with trust.

The amazing thing is that each one of us is involved in many dances at any one time - and we are the leader in some and the follower in others!

Some dances are slow and majestic and others are crazy and frenetic and still others are somewhere in between.

Some last a lifetime - others are over almost as soon as they begin.

Most of the time we manage not to fall flat on our faces, which is even more amazing and requires some pretty fancy footwork.

And sometimes we do trip up or our toes get squashed and we get hurt - but the important thing is to keep on dancing - no matter what.

Just keep dancing!

Even if you can't hear the music or you just don't don't feel like it or you have acquired two left feet, keep on dancing!

Reminds me of the words of a Garth Brooks song: 'our lives are better left to chance. I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance.'

Let's keep on dancing my NiNe friends. Noreen

Embrace the Unknown

"When you feel a new impulse, an uplifting thought, an insight that you have never acted upon before, embrace the unknown. Cherish it as tenderly as a newborn baby. God lies in the unknown, and when you can embrace it fully, you will be free."

Deepak Chopra, M.D.

An Angel!

Didier showed this clip to me from a UK paper The Sun and it was so inspiring. My heart soared and I think I saw an angel. If this is not a commerical for why we should not judge a book by its cover...don't know what is. Wouldn't it be nice when our world does not judge based on looks or appearance? Enjoy! Might need a tissue.

Wednesday - The Law of Least Effort

Accept people, situations, and events as they occur. Take responsibility for your situation and for all events seen as problems. Relinquish the need to defend your point of view.

Dance with GOD

DANCE WITH GOD - Author unknown

When I meditated on the word GUIDANCE, I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky. When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back or by pressing lightly in one direction or another. It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender, willingness, andattentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and skill from the other.

My eyes drew back to the word GUIDANCE.

When I saw "G," I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i." "God, "u" and "i" dance. God, you, and I dance. As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about my life. Once again, I became willing to let God lead.My prayer for you today is that God's blessings and mercies be upon you on this day and everyday. May you abide in God as God abides in you. Dance together with God, trusting God to lead and to guide you through each season of your life.

This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached. If God has done anything for you in your life, please consider sharing this message with someone else. Prayer is one of the best gifts we can receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards; so may we continue to pray for one another.

AND I HOPE YOU DANCE !

Know that my spirit is dancing with you. Noreen

Saying Thanks

Sometimes we forget the power of a simple Thank You! I hope you'll take a moment to view the attached video and then think about someone in your life that you may have missed thanking. Go ahead and do it now and make their day. Noreen

Monday Message from the Universe

from Inspiration Peaks

Life always gives us
exactly the teacher we need
at every moment.
This includes every mosquito,
every misfortune,
every red light,
every traffic jam,
every obnoxious supervisor (or employee),
every illness,
every loss,
every moment of joy or depression,
every addiction,
every piece of garbage,
every breath.
Every moment is the Guru.

Gratitude Prayer

The Gratitude Prayer that we use is adapted
from a Family Prayer of Robert Louis Stevenson.


Behold our family here assembled.

We are grateful for this loving home,

For the love that unites us,

For the Peace accorded us this day,

For the excitement with which we expect the morrow,

For the perfect health, the delightful work,

The financial abundance, the delicious food

And the bright skies that make our lives delightful.

For our family and friends in all parts of the earth.

And so it is..........Amen

As you have witnessed, I further adapt it with each meal and setting to fit the occasion, day and group that is present. Thank you for participating in many joyous meals and celebrations with us. May peace, love, light, grace and ease be yours today, tomorrow and always.

Energizing with the Color Purple

"It is useful to mention that the color of 9 is purple. On this basis alone there are a number of feng shui Masters well schooled by the Taoists who look on purple as an exceptionally lucky color. The Chinese say that when good luck comes, red becomes so red it turns purple! Thus in 2009, it is an excellent idea to think seriously about activating with the color purple once again.

You can energize the South direction of your home with the color purple. This will activate the Element of Fire as purple here is seen as an extension of red. Purple in the South in 2009 energizes the luck of romance and it also helps the Horse-born person regain whatever momentum may have been lost in the previous year. The color purple will also bring wealth luck to those who energize the SE with its presence. It is beneficial to paint a wall in the SE with the color purple - in this sector of the home, purple takes on the attributes of the Element of Water thereby activating the wealth accumulation chi energy of this very lucky direction of 2009.

This ritual of painting a purple wall in the SE also benefits the Dragon and the Snake born, expanding the money luck of the Snake and bringing a big opportunity to the Dragon."

For the NiNe

“We are - you are - all that is. Together we form what is called the Source, the A to Z. We are the stream of Light beckoning you to recall that you are also of the Light. You are only a visitor in this realm, playing a role...drinking your tea. Your journey here was and is about expansion. We are all collectively becoming more as a result of your endeavors.

But the physical realm is seductive…it feels real. It is not. Yet we know that you must react in the play, singing on cue. There are different characters and different scenes…the same actors. Don’t worry you cannot get it wrong, even if you forget momentarily that it is a play.

The choice is yours; live knowing and embracing the experience - or not. We encourage the former - it is much more joyous - but we would never dare disturb your beautiful will to choose. Our agreement was that when you ask, “Who am I?” Those of us still in this realm would remind you that you are Light Beings; eternal by your very essence. You simply chose to join other Light Beings in this physical realm for expansion of the universe. Together we are the universe as well, you see - vast beyond your current comprehension.”

Introspection

I often sit and wonder about things. I marvel at what an experience this life has been. Vibrant snapshots of love, joy and wonder jettison through my mind when I reflect on my life. How did it all come together? How did I make decisions? How did I just magically run into those who turned out to be significant people in my life? The process is pretty magnificent – brilliant, to be more accurate. I think it starts with a grand “possibility” and all of the necessary ingredients for creativity.

It’s much like developing a project or a building. I think Source looks at the playing field. In this case, the site, the raw materials and all of the players with various expertise and puts them all together in the same vicinity, by seeming chance. A giant chess board, if you will. Your first contact might be slightly less direct…maybe you are acquainted with someone who knows a supplier of steel. Or you are on vacation in France when you overhear someone talking about the perfect site available for your project - in your city. Regardless, those who are open to this type of energy, recognize their role, recognize their part and move toward the co-creation underway. It just feels right or attracts you, in some way.

The really cool aspect of all of this is to be conscious of the game. The term “game”…that somehow doesn’t show enough respect for this process. This is truly brilliant stuff. Ok, let me try again…the really cool aspect of all of this is to be conscious of the many synchronicities occurring. Those little “nudges or hints” that come your way are truly significant. Surely you knew that they had meaning? Surely you knew that is was not just happenstance or random similarity? You are actually drawing these things to you via your thoughts and the images held in your mind. Ramtha said, “What you think matters. Literally.” Of course, what you think matters. But also what you think….literally "matters" or materializes.

The key is to be open to the possibilities. I find that the more I notice and acknowledge the synchronicities, nudges or hints, the more they occur. And the more I sit in wonder of the glory of it all. Brenda
