Red Spiral Life of Light by Azita Gonzalez

Message from Master Kuthumi
channeled through Azita Gonzales, October 4, 2007

Through my mind's eye, I saw him distinctly and more clearly than the other masters,
for I had no preconceptions about him. It was our first encounter. As I opened my
spiritual portal to receive messages from higher consciousness, there he was. He
was dressed in robes that looked regal in sheen and brilliance. They appeared to be
of a silky-satiny texture with fancy embroidered organic patterns. He had something
tall upon his head and a very distinguished long, dark beard. His eyes sparkled and
his posture was poised, yet he had a joyful, hearty laugh. I asked who he was, and
this is what he said:

"This is the Master Kuthumi. It is with great honor that I come to you in many forms,
through writings, voice, and repetition. Believe that the wisdom I wish to impart to
you comes from that higher place, and we welcome you with open arms.

The challenge which lies before mankind is one of great magnitude, but not one that
cannot be overcome. You will find that many masters will be coming to you to impart
wisdom for the betterment of mankind and this is why I am here with you now
through this channel who has only just learned of my existence. So let us begin...
With Faith:

Take what you have learned thus far and put it to use in daily life. Faith is not that of
the feeble nor feebleminded; it is an intrinsic part of every human existence and
necessary to the survival of the species. Without faith, one feels lost because
without faith, one is lost from the very path that they had chosen in spirit form.

Faith is not choosing a religion, although be that a noble prospect of a way. There is
no one way. So let it be recognized that Faith itself is a path and need not have any
further classification, denomination, definitive nomenclature, etc.

To believe is to know without evidence that I am here with you now speaking in spirit
form although you cannot see me with physical eyes, nor hear me with your physical
ears. Know that we are all connected, that in physical as well as that in spirit. So
here we are now.

I give to you the task of remembrance. Now you must reflect back to your spirit. Lift
the veil from your inner eyes, and see your true essence in all of its divine glory. We
are One in Spirit as is The Christ. So know that you may contact me at any future
time, for there is only Now in this time.

My spirit receives the joy of everlasting friendship with those who have ascended to
this plane of eternity. Go now and seek forth more likeness unto your brethren.
Speak from the heart. Feel the love which abounds and abides by no rules except
that of the Universal and Unconditional. You are the essence of the Creator! As are
we all. Give of yourself, blindly knowing that God is in every gift that is given and well
received. I am the essence, you are the essence, and together the world will stand
in unity in the days of the Golden Reckoning. Holiest of Holies shall descend from
the planes and bring forth the fruit rendering peace amongst all peoples for the
lasting friendship that is the Unity of the Brethren.

Now, go forth and multiply, not in numbers, but in actions of love. Speak the words of
truth that fall from the lips of the enlightened so that light may spill forth dispelling
the darkness. We are One."

Of Life and Love
By Azita Gonzalez

If love and life be everlasting,
What room is there for fear?
For fear be not that of love,
But that of death,
Which does not exist
In a life of love,
For it is the love which makes life eternal.
It is love that gives life,
And love that sustains life,
And it is life for life's sake
That love is born.
~~~
So be it forever entwined,
A life of love,
And a love of life.
~~~
And so to live,
Let there be love.
The Gift of Life
by Azita Gonzalez

Such is the nature of life
That one can lead oneself to refreshing waters,
For you are so built that you should know
everything you need to survive
And everything that you want to know in this world.

You are so loved, that life is a gift of experience,
A treasure to behold,
And a gift to give as well as to receive.

To enjoy your life fully,
Is the greatest gift you can give to the
Creator that has given you life itself.

Yet you co-create,
So you make what you want of your life…
So be it that We are intertwined- Divine Will and the will of man,
One may choose what one wants to do with one's life,
Yet the Divine plan remains and will be fulfilled.

So spake God that you should love each other,
So that you may truly know of God in yourselves and in others
And live peaceably in this world,

For if you are not to love one another,
You have denied a part of yourself,
And that part being of God- unconditional love.

So spake God that you must learn right from wrong,
And by being in this existence,
You will be given plenty of opportunities to learn this.
By doing the “Will of God,”
You are creating for yourself a fulfillment of your own Divine plan.

For it is in following your heart
And the path of love and light,
That you shall find happiness in the fulfillment of your soul's plan.

And happiness is a choice.

Remove yourself from those situations
which keep you from happiness,
But know you that what you experience,
Is based on how you choose to perceive a situation.

For everything is in balance.

It moves, shifts, and changes, but remains in balance.

So spake the Lord that life is a gift,
So treasure it.

All This Love In Me
by Steven D. Lightspring

I'm loving who
I am becoming;
Loving who I'll be

When I'm finally
Manifesting
All this love in me!

It started as
A trickle, now
It's turning into streams.

Never sure quite
Where it's flowing, I just
Know it fills my dreams

Of the day
Entire oceans will come
Splashing through my heart

Until I'm carried
Out to see... this Love
Has flooded every part!

Ripples of reflection of the wonder that you are--
That's what I am enjoying here, the light from you, a star
That's shining out so brightly, in a sky of deepest blue
Where the JOY of where I'm traveling's heightened by the light of "you"!

Though I know we're all reflections in God's great eternal sky
Of the glory and the goodness of the wonder and the "why"
Of the reasons we are here and the reflections we create
By the loving we are learning and the light we radiate,

But there's just something deeply joyful about a light that shines on you
With a certain touch and twinkle that is then transformed into
A special glow, a radiance, with a glory all its own
That never would have shone, had it been left to shine alone!

So it's with a heart that's glowing from this gratittude inside
That I thank you, deeply thank you, for the way you've opened wide
To beam out all of the bounty of the goodness and the grace
That's shining from our Source through you, now beaming on my face!

Ripples of Reflection

Weekly Quote from P'taah

"Let us look at this idea of honoring who
you are, and that is honoring not only
your non-physical but honoring your
bodies, honoring this miracle called life,
and honoring the ways that you may
express love.

So one of the ways that you can honor
who you are is to look at the beliefs you
hold about yourself and your body. We
listen to your thoughts and it is
extraordinary to us how you all judge
your bodies. How your bodies are never
enough because they do not conform to
what somebody else’s idea of beauty is.
In other words, you have all forgotten the
miracle that you are. You have all
forgotten how exquisite you are in your
myriad and unique expressions of
physicality."

A Lesson in Compassion
by Azita Gonzales

I come to you now with channeled words of wisdom on the topic of  compassion. Brace
yourself, for it is going to be a bumpy ride!

In your midst is the greatest challenge known to mankind -- compassion. Too many a
time has man thought himself to be rulers over all the earth, the center of the universe,
but in truth, man is miniscule in tantamount to all of creation which in vastness cannot be
described. Suffice it to say that your primitive existence is merely a pin point reality in the
large scope of what is actually taking place. This is hard to understand, for you have
limited scope in this time, for you have chosen to do so for the sake of experience. So to
better understand compassion, you must step back from the pin point mind-frame and
take in a bit of the bigger picture.

Of course, in your spiritual journey, you have already learned how we are all connected in
Spirit and that is important to understanding the value of compassion. Compassion is
love in purest form, free from limitation and defining
factors. It is a feeling for another on the most basic level without changing behavior for
the sake of “doing good deeds,” but rather a feeling of oneness with another and treating
the other as you would yourself, an act of kindness done not for the sake of “doing good,”
but for the sake of understanding the oneness and connection to Spirit that all beings
have. I give to you, and give to myself in so doing. I save you as I would save my own life
in an emergency. We are wrought from the same seeds, thus we carry the same material
into the future. As a
father would save his child, so I would rescue you in time of need.

Blessed are those who understand that it is not in “doing” but in “being” that we are good.
For how can one who is divine not be? So say I that we are One in likeness unto the Spirit
of All That Is. Blessed be my child, that you have learned of love, unconditional, in giving
of yourself, not for doing, but for being. And it is not in doing that we succeed; it is in being
the success that we aim for.

Work from the heart.
Be the love that you wish to express and receive.
Love is not a commodity;
It is the substance of life itself.

A challenge: pray with me now,
I am the Source, because I AM.
The Source feeds me the sustenance of Love.
Love is the fortification of Life.
Love is the All.

To know Love, just Be,
And be in harmony with All That Is,

For in Being, We create,
And Our creations are good
For they are wrought from Love.

Stand with strength.
Flow like water...
Breathe with the air,

And learn what you are.

You are the Earth and the Sky.
You are the poem that speaks of All.
Your song is the twitter of birds
and the howl of the wind.
You are the whisper from
the mouth of God.

Beings of grace and beauty,
Fine expressions of Love,
So let it Be.

A Message from the Communion of Light
as channeled through Frank Butterfield

"Your presence in the world is magnificent. Even if you do not believe this or remember
that it is so.

Your role in this world, in this three-dimensional reality, is to experience anything you
want to experience. You are only limited by your own vision of yourself. And you cannot
sustain that for long unless you are deeply committed to it. We invite you to release the
chains of your own limitation and explore the boundlessness that is always available to
you.

We are not the only ones to say this. Neither are we the first nor will we be the last. But we
are always wanting to share the vision of who you truly are with you so that you may
remember.

If you would like to communicate with us within yourself, you need only intend to do so
and we are available to you. As you do so, you will know you are open to our presence as
you begin to feel better and better about yourself. This is your response to our vibration.

We are always honored to work with you and play with you as you continue to remember
who you really are.

We hold the vision of your true self in focus as we communicate with you. And we offer
you our broader, non-physical perspective to assist you as you walk on your journey."

Source Energy
Channeled by Sandra Larson on October 12, 2008

Hello Beloved Expressions of Light,

You know me well because you are me and I am you. I am Source Energy. Come.
Come to be with you and to use this opportunity to express what's going on for you,
so you will have some peace and as it was earlier so beautifully expressed, joy.  We
would like to just assist you as you're saying, "Hey, what's going on here?"

Hilary Clinton had used the expression and many before have used the expression
of the glass ceiling. She did that very well and she talked about it in politics and the
way we grow, but I would like to talk with you about a different kind of ceiling. It's a
vibrational ceiling that you're experiencing right now.  Maybe you've felt yourself
bouncing off that ceiling and saying, "Wait, I'm trying to break through that ceiling!"  If
you have my Beloved Ones, it's okay.  It's just, it's saying that you are breaking
through.  There's a scripture in the Bible and I believe it was Paul that was the one
who wrote it and he said, "You will look through a glass darkly, but one day you will
be known as you are known." We look through a glass darkly.  Are you familiar with
that scripture? (I'm not probably quoting it exactly right.)

What's been happening is, you've been looking through this fog and it's been like a
glass ceiling for you but it's been like a glass darkly. And you've been unable to see
what's on the other side of that. And what's on the other side of that is freedom. For
you to know one another as you are known in spirit as the light beings that you are. It
is coming, it is shifting and it's like a veil is breaking away.  And Beloved Ones, you
are the fore-runners, you are stepping forward where others fear to tread. But, it's
because your vibration brings you there.

You are raising yourself to who you've always chosen to be: this beautiful brilliant
bright light! And for some, the economy is causing world-wide panic. For you, you
know it's: "It's okay! (Snap) It's the opportunity for me to be who I am is coming now!"
And, can you feel it in your heart? Can you feel like it's the magnet drawing you,
breaking through that darkly glass for you to step into the fullness of who you are as
source energy?   

And there will be times when you might feel like you've been slimed on or you've
been dragged down or like you've got an anchor.  That's the shredding away of the
layers of all that doesn't serve you.  Do you understand that? And it feels so much like
you're being born. My dear Beloved Ones, you are not only being born, but you are
helping the Earth be born into this new vibrational level, this new way of being of
matter and spirit integrated and expressing.

And you can't help but get to that new vibrational place.  You can't help it because you
scripted it long ago. And we that have lived in the light fully without the weight of the
body and the material being, we stand there and we cheer you on. We are so proud
of you because you are the ones that chose to come and have the weights: like
running a marathon with a boat anchor on you. Is that how you feel sometimes? Yes!
How brave are you?  Because as you do this you take the planet with you, as you
move into this vibrational place, you take life with you, the beautiful, messy life, you
take it with you.  But you don't do it alone. Because you are her and you are her and
you are her and I am you and you are me. And we all get there together.

Get ready! On the other side of the darken mirror are miracles you have not even
dreamed of in your dream time. They are so beautiful: the strengths, the abilities, the
knowingness, the love, the passion, the joy.  It is coming through you for you will see
it clearly. I am here for you. You are here for me.  You do what I can't do because you
do it, if it's difficult. But you are spirit, too.  

I love you and it is the love that drives you.  It is the love leads you. It is love that
guides you.  And no matter what, it is the only real force in the Universe, this great
love which is joy and peace and all that you are at the core of your being.

(Laughter) Others will dread and you will dance. Others will fear and you will love.  It
is the way of things, but they will come along. They will be the hundredth monkey.
Don't worry, worry not. All is well. All is as it should be.

Feel cradled and held for you can not walk alone.  You can not. You can not be
separated from all that is. Please remember when it feels like you are alone, there
are beings of light that sing your name, "Yah, look what she's doing, look what she's
doing, look who's she's being.  You are beauty and held in high esteem.  Thank you
for letting me come.

Beingness
by Steven D. Lightspring

I am living loving beingness
A flame of deepest freeingness
A whole new way of seeingness
From truth that sees me whole

I am giving loving doingness
With all my heart pursuingness
While resting in renewingness
Each moment, in the flow

Of all I am, believingness
With all my soul receivingness
While letting go, just leavingness
The rest to rest in love

For only love's transformingness
Its miracle heartwarmingness
Can take my life by stormingness
And lift it up above

To where I am transcendedness
So beautifully all blendedness
All heart and spirit splendidness
From my head down to my soul!

To where I am all living this
So naturally giving this
Till all of me, so fittingness
All fits into the flow

Of all I am, forever ness
Have always been, together ness
Beyond all I had ever ness
Begun, had hoped to see

I am now in my knowingness
All I will be, all flowingness
To where I'll stay, while goingness
To all the world in me!

A Hopi Elder Speaks

"You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour, now you
must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to
be considered . . .
• Where are you living?
• What are you doing?
• What are your relationships?
• Are you in right relation?
• Where is your water?
• Know your garden?
• It is time to speak your Truth?
• Create your community?
• Be good to each other?
• And do not look outside yourself for the leader."

Then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, "This could be a
good time!"

"There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are
those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel
they are torn apart and will suffer greatly.

"Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the
shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our
heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At
this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, Least of all ourselves.
For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.

"The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word
struggle from you attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be
done in a sacred manner and in celebration.

"We are the ones we've been waiting for."

Releasing Fear
Channeled Article by Cathy Olsen

As the new frequencies of light continue to make their way onto the planet, their task is to
lovingly dissolve all that no longer serves your highest good.  And as these energies of
transformation move within and through your personal and collective systems, all that has
been held in unconsciousness through eons of time is shaken loose and begins to emerge
into the light of day.  As the shadows begin to make their way to the surface there may ensue a
sense of emotional chaos and underlying fear.  Whether you are consciously aware of what is
rising from beneath the surface or not it becomes apparent that all is not as it once was.   As a
result of the inner shake up it may feel as though you are witnessing the aftermath of an
earthquake, where pieces of your former life lay strewn about you like debris which is now
unrecognizable to you.

This scenario can leave you feeling out of sorts with yourself and your world.  It may leave you
feeling anxious and disconnected.  As a result, you may begin to question who you are and
what ground you stand upon at present.  But know that all is well in the Grand Design.  It is
time to release all that has held you captive in the illusion of this reality.   It is time to release all
that has held your light from you.  As foundations of limitation begin to crumble under the
pressure of the light of love, what remains is your divine essence; the aspect of you which is
sacred and unchanging.  And so we ask you to place your focus not on what is dissolving
around you but on that which remains in its place; the light that is you.  Have no fear, for all is
as it should be.  Release the need to understand exactly what is happening in your world and
in your life.  Release the fears that would keep you from the truth of who you really are.  

It is by design that change is upon you now as never before.  It is by design that all that you are
not is being removed from your countenance so as to release you from the past.   Do not cling
to outmoded structures as the process of transformation continues.  Know that they have
served you in the past, but your task is now to bless and release them.  In so doing space is
made available to house more of your divine essence.  The structures of your body matrix are
now being made ready to house the crystalline nature of your expanded being.  Do not cling to
the temporal.  Know that you are a being of light whose time has come to shine. Your divine
purpose is now upon you.   Do not fear that which you are.  We see your true magnificence and
are here to remind you of all that you are.  Remember that you are not alone in this.  We love
and support you as you shake free from the illusion that has played upon you for eons of time,
and stand ready to celebrate with you the freedom that is now upon you.  Be still and know
yourself in fullness.  We stand in witness to your unfolding light.


Meditation for Releasing Fear

I Am That  I Am
My Body is the Temple of the Most High

This painting was inspired by my reading of the Gospel of Thomas.  This is
an important point to me because I have never felt the urge to create any sort
of religious art before.  A figurative abstraction of Christ, the title also pulls in
the meaning from Robert Frost’s poem:

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
so dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Remember and exercise this Law of Life:

Whatever you think and feel is what you bring into form. Where your
thoughts rest is where you are, for you are you consciousness.
Thoughts can never become things until they are clothed in feelings.
You are already standing in the dimensional field of instantaneous
creation.
