Away with the Fairies- 28th May 2023

Time and time again the sea's roar and the wind's murmur speak of the incandescent beings who live amongst the froth and fervour deep in the oceans, riding the waves, skimming the lakes, high on the wind’s bellow, surfing the breeze - these fundamental fellows of the aether and of the water.

Now there are many beings to which our world and life comprise - beings condensed within the one Earthly sphere of activity; and as experience proves, they are both interdependent and independent of one another.

Added to this is the question of consciousness and its range, its scope, and breadth of such ... and that it will vary, similarly to those differences that exist between men, and with stages of development from infant through to man, etc.

Beings throughout experience gradients of consciousness, lit with modicums of insight, emotion, virtue, intelligence, intuition, co-operation, observation and fellowship.

Every species and type will have these universal gifts to some degree - at times some more than others - and they will invariably influence one another in this also.

Yet distinct from this becomes the mind of Man with his divine obstinacy, a characteristic which sets his being apart from all others.

This obstinacy is a gift (not necessarily a talent) that they may be unaware of so much and so many - perhaps even becoming detached from their very own reality; inert to the movements around them, and thus discriminatory, contained, and unpersuaded.

This ability to filter truth, reality and being, is truly valuable on the evolutionary path to individuality - and yet also potentially quite dire on that very lonely journey.

It can be as the pilgrim who tires of carrying his provisions and leaves them behind, only to find his hunger now follows him down the road.

Humans beings (and by default association animals also) are the only beings in the Cosmos to experience loneliness. Within the hierarchies the multitudes of beings hold an ever-present awareness of the interconnectivity of all - they do not feel separate or alone, as this literally is inconceivable to them.

Both laterally and from the bottom up they function within this living knowledge of universal connection, and this reality “is what it is” for its divine co-inhabitants.

Individuality can be a cruel mantle of stupidity, or eventually when developed, become the endowment of a young god - it can give to the Master the eyes to see the greater God - the ability to truly envision distinctly the majesty of the Heavenly Powers, in contrast to the smallness of self and the meekness within.

Individual consciousness and egoic appropriations can bring the soul to reverence: perceiving the greater for what it is in relation to what we are.

And in this we come to an exalted happiness and sadness concurrently - yet also with the blessing of the peace that follows by knowing one’s place both in and out of time.

The Gates of Birth- 21st May 2023

There is a certain kind of bliss the spirit of a baby experiences at the time of the actual birth from womb into embrace: as the infant soul is cradled in perfect love.

Although rarely spoken of, or recalled, this time of arrival through the heavenly passage is the foundation for both wisdom and joy throughout the life to come.

During this period also there is a snapshot given to the soul within the infant of the very possibilities aligned for their life to be - a catalogue, a panorama, as it were.
This is no new news to the individual, however it is taken in somewhat differently, in the light of a certain reality forthcoming and with the impressing forces of life’s blissful divinity coinciding, there becomes an amalgam of planes and places, of Heaven with Earth.

One could say that with respect to this initial entrance into the physical realm, and with bonding with the body and with the parents, this energetic unfolding of the greatest love and wisdom streams inwardly, and the child though infantile shines his brightest at his youngest, and will only know again the bliss of such perfect being with this intensity when in recollection they are just about to pass back through the gates of death ... and even then it shall be more memory than experience calling them. Often just prior to death the individual awakens with a renewed energy, and it is the reliving of this birth experience that invokes the final incoming burst of life.

A soul who is fresh from Heaven bears the confidence knowing that their beings are in substance immutable truth - and even those whose paths ahead will not be easy, are comfortable with courage enough to approach the adventure that is the life before them. They know that it is to heaven that they will one day return and feel completely safe in that aspect.

The baby in subsequent days slowly bonds with the world itself, ‘peeps out the door’ and then returns to their sleep - all the while savouring the remaining after-glow of birth’s bliss - the highest radiation of all, the greatest welcome to the world.

During the days and weeks to follow the child identifies individual love as points of light streaming from mother and father and to a lesser extent from others around them; and added to this specifically they are also forming a close working relationship between themselves: the incarnating, indwelling individuality and their beloved physical body whose concurrent evolution travels beside them, as they now for their whole life shall know and love them also.

The very deep and lasting connection one experiences with their physical body does at this very special and formative time become cemented and integrated. Etherically, astrally, it takes approximately six weeks for the soul within to find its co-ordinates and begin to sense their own hands and feet and go on to move their will in order to motivate their body. And this of course is improved upon over many years until their consciousness has mastered aspects of their physical body as is want.

The protective love and outpouring of love to the baby brings nourishment to the child that helps to build their very fortitude and resilience to the environment around them.

This truly is the soul’s most happiest part of their life - for the whole world smiles in their presence, as they, our smallest fellow traveller have brought a divine currency that enlightens us to the greatness of the spiritual realms about.

They, with fresh optimism have decided to join us - that eventually they shall build up this world, fashioning it as only they can.

True Community- 7th May 2023


Monkeys love to imitate, yet they also love to intimidate. In consideration of will and its power to be definite, to say 'no', and to go one's own way, the monkey has a remarkable strength within his nature to do just this.

You will not see, for example, a group of monkeys dancing in unison with the same hand and foot actions, in rhythm with each other. They would never choose to do such a thing. You would not see a monkey on the factory floor repeating mundane tasks - although there was a time when 'scientists' tried to train them thusly, even with lobotomies the species resisted such trained repetitive employment.

Some were successfully recruited with rewards, however when the rewards were no longer, the behaviour did not conform. The monkeys had a sense of their own self before others. They birthed and fed each other, and enjoyed a great community, but did not act in unison when told what to do.

It takes a particular kind of intelligence to be able to comply with, or attune to, synchronised group or community activities. Some might imagine that mindlessness creates conformity, whereas the opposite is moreover apt: it is from a particular talent and sensitivity that individuals develop which enables them to be able to work alongside each other amicably, reasonably, predictably.

And so what happens when you forcibly strip the will from a person in such extreme circumstances that require compliance? This might occur economically, or through imprisonment, or via a psychological demise. The answer is that the person who suffers compelling pressure will for a time, lose their sensitivity and ability to work communally in a co-ordinated fashion.

Therefore, tyranny never really wins overall compliance for very long. If, in futuristic terms, the powers that want to control mankind schemed to rule simply over robotic-type communities, contained and controlled into submission, eventually the opposite would most surely arise out from this condition, that with primal instincts the patterns of conformity would break, resulting in abject chaos.

Yet this contrary swerve of character serves the people well. Throughout time and beyond there have always been opportunistic beings who would sequester the life before them and try to take it for their own. Ultimately we need the ability to be able to decide who and whose influence we work with, travel with, and bed with; and over time the soul does learn these negotiations and strengths and discernments.

Our spiritual birthright is that we are sovereign over our very selves. We enjoy the co-operative relationships of community and the benefits thereby, and learn to give wholeheartedly to projects that enrich ourselves and the life around us.

We also have the spiritual right to draw those lines which separate ourselves from the mites of disease, or the demons whose plans overstep their worth.

The freedom of Man is not only the most glorious principle, but also when practiced within a truly co-operative community, it is celebrated within Heaven herself!

Good Company- 23rd April, 2023



Truth is neither a panacea or salve, it is life itself: material, physical, electrical, spiritual life, which permeates, invigorates, correlates, imbibes, motivates and manifests yet more remarkable life.

And at the very centre of all life is Christ.
If a soul rejects Christ they reject life.
This is why the variety of death cults appear as they do, and do as they do.

The two allegiances are distinct and whilst it is very true that the human being changes moment to moment, and is never far from either grace or falling; and that we needs must affirm anew every day our intentions and our inner pledge ... it is also most true to say that adults (not children) tip one way or the other.

Ultimately the path of death incurs its own consequences - literally living and dying by the swords of its own making.

Death has not the duty to sustain itself. It plays no part in beauty or creativity, and it simply seeks to unmake that which is coherent and maintaining life. And this unmaking has a place within the natural order when it is time for the unmaking to make way for new life, or the changing circumstances of life.

The powerful forces of cessation, dissemination, and withdrawal are essentially a blessing - sleep, for example, is one of these gifts where life is relaxed and re-ordered.

However there is life within and without the Christ. Salt, yes into the membrane, but Christ into the heart.

The ‘fallen’ ones suffer a conjunctivitis of the heart and in the very worst of cases the soul evacuates, the angel keeps their distance, and the entity within is either the base consciousness of the animal body or a visiting lodger.

We can most certainly pray for the ones who are but empty shells. Such judgement is not criticism, it is discernment. If a person is actively, wilfully, attempting to cause a demise in your own life you can invite them to pray with you before the further conversation together - or quietly commit a prayer in the room in their presence.

The saying of Grace before eating holds many good purposes and the pertinent one here was that it was a call to peace with those who you break bread with. When eating in the company of others you are particularly sensitive and open to their influence.

If a person aggrieves you it is preferable not to eat food with them or if one must, then to say Grace openly and loudly beforehand.

Charitable concern is natural because the pitiable conditions of unrest, madness, anger etc. are most obviously saddening, however these are not to be indulged in or have us captivated thereby.

We try hard within our own consciousness to stay the course and exercise our confidence in goodness - we try to make effort and mostly we enjoy the benefaction that follows ... however there are those miserable individuals who would interrupt these strengths within your being and disturb your own sense of peace within. If this occurs you can be momentarily in peril. ‘A little poison may be a cure, yet a lot of poison may provoke a death.’

Choose the time you have where possible away from these individuals who would destroy you.

It was not just one man who crucified our Christ - it was many. And many more today would gleefully do the same.

As difficult as it is to picture, in many respects it comes down to just this.

And to qualify: it is not to expect that Christ needs be named by the individual or that he wears the title ‘Christian’, but rather that Christ’s Love lives within them, that they accept His Grace and Presence and Peace into their hearts, their choosing, their discerning and deciding, their knowing, their providing, incarnating goodness into the spheres of today to build up the worlds of tomorrow with the living majesty of heavenly proportions.

Let no man or woman take your happiness or your soul - or for that matter, quality of mindfulness also. To this we have by Christ and the divine intervention the ability to say ‘no’ sternly, firmly, protectively, resolutely and most definitely ‘No’ to any or to all who would assault us.
