Hello everyone,
(if you read both my blog sites you might be having a deja vu moment .. this is the same post for today as the Sacred Gates site .. so ... no need to read it again.)
It seems rather appropriate to say hello again, after being away so long .. and where have I been? I've been on a long and complicated journey through bowel cancer and kidney stones .. they happened within 2 weeks of each other, so that I couldn't separate the pain of the operation for the 'removal of the site of the polyp - just in case' from the stones that were stirred up by filling me to bloating point with saline (some 6 bags full), which some bright spark decided would be a good idea a couple of days after the operation.
We shall draw a veil over the first hospital experience, and instead commend the nurses, and doctors, at the second hospital called Casey, where I was admitted for the procedure to remove the kidney stones .. all 8 of the stones were 'made of a substance we do not recognise, so we've sent them away for testing'. They've never told me what they were, but right now I don't care. I am just very relieved the whole experience is over and I am well on the mend, to the point of gardening again, and carrying clothes baskets down to the line to hang the washing out.
So hello! I've learned a lot about myself since the couple of weeks before the operation on the 3rd March. I've learned some good things, and some not so good. I've learned what I fear, not cancer, not death or dying, no, my strongest fear was that the pain would never stop. Hmm .. turns out I'm a bit of a control freak .. an undercover one. LOL I chose one heck of a way to learn it for certain. I am laughing at myself now.
Hello, hello .. the radio is back on. And I'm back at 'work', in a spiritual sense. Seems I'm going to be starting a 'church' .. well, a something anyway. The word church is synonymous with people running away in fright. I want them to run towards God/Spirit, not away. The Love is there. We only have to reach out and touch it ...
Love & Joy,
Ama

When is a flood not a flood ...

I think that explains it. Do you think we should all email it to the Australian Insurance companies that are busy saying that the water in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria are not a flood and so no one is covered by their, usually expensive, insurance policies?
I guess all those people are expected to sacrifice their goods and chattels to the greater good of the Insurance God .. whichever God that is? I just checked Google and there doesn’t seem to be a God of Insurance? Hmm... I wonder if we could define it as Ego?
And on this subject of sacrifice – I wonder how the Life Insurance companies are going to feel at the end of December 2012 when lots of people put in claims for all the people (over one million according to something I read) that are suppose to die before then – for the greater good of Mankind. Is mankind a God? Does it deserve that much sacrifice? Not in my opinion, and yes it is my opinion, but then .. this is my blog.
When I joined the new age industry, following the advice of my guides and angels, and opened a Healing Centre and learned Reiki, and Counselling, and became a Spiritual Teacher, I hoped that I would stop seeing the world fall apart around me. Perhaps, from my light and happy vantage point the small nasty things that people do to each other wouldn’t touch me anymore, and I would no longer weep at the confusion in people minds and hearts. No such luck. (Hang on a minute, according to one workshop I went to Luck is a Babylonian God and we are not even supposed to mention that name, let alone wish anyone any of it .. but I still do). I guess I am going to be going to hell, but then .. sometimes I think we are already here.
So here are three prickly topics to look at ... the powers that be in the Insurance industry who redefine water falling from the sky, filling up a big dam, and rivers and lakes, and then overflowing and ‘inundating’ thousands of homes as not a ‘flood’ and ‘therefore they don’t have to pay’. Geez man .. if it was your house, you’d need help getting your life straight again .. but hey, I guess you can’t see me at the top of the corporate ladder with your dry feet and your thousand dollar suits .. and btw, my house isn’t in a region that flooded. I am counting my blessings on that one.
When did you forget, in all that worship of Mannon, that there are people out here who do not earn top dollar, or live on high ground. No, the council approved the speculators to sell land in the flood plains and then build houses on it. Great. And what about all the farmers and the lost crops .. oh, you probably don’t insure for them either .. and neither do the banks awaiting to foreclose ...
Yes I am ranting again. In the scheme of human lives, given that we are supposed to lose over one million people in the next almost two years, twenty or more people is probably not too much to lose, but for your mother, brother, sister, cousin .. the lady across the street who lost her husband and her nine year old son .. it's TOO MUCH! And now you say they have no right to rebuild using the money they paid you in good faith. What happened to your ‘good faith’ return .. to looking after them when they are fallen? Hell no, it might have to come out of your wages? They are just unlucky, aren’t they?
There’s that word again, but I don’t feel like debating with a small group of Christians about whether wishing someone something wonderful is invoking a ‘demon’. Intention is actually everything, and I am sure that God, whose name is El, btw, will understand the will of my heart, and perhaps my lack of wisdom in the saying. At least that’s what it says in the bible.
And then we get to the sticky one – sacrifice.
According to the Christian Bible there was a man called Jesus Christ who was crucified and died on the Cross, as ‘the perfect sacrifice’, a once only event, his blood breaking a lock that freed all of humanity to go get on with their lives. (Hebrews 9:28) My theology teacher described Jesus’ outstretched arms as reaching towards all people in every direction. I know it’s hard to believe in the metaphysical in this age of mechanical wonders – but what does it cost you – you only have to believe in the Christ to be free, you don’t actually have to go to church – plenty of people have proved that. In the Catholic church you can even buy ‘redemption’, if you have enough money – but why do people have to buy redemption? Hmm.. which church is worshipping which God these days, or spiritualist group for that matter - seeing as many of those I have visited have the 'Lord's Prayer' as the only part of God in the 'service' (dedicated mostly to proving there's life after death by having unidentified spirits 'standing beside you - your mother perhaps - oh she's still alive, did she have an sisters?' giving advice about stuff that even I don't relate to. ("You don't connect? Well, can I leave it with you .. I'm sure it's for your future.) Hmm.. do I sacrifice my commonsense just by going to those 'churches'?
Back to topic in hand: According to Christian teachings no other human sacrifices are needed to keep open the door into the heaven for all of humanity, nor has it slammed shut – you would think we would have heard – so why suddenly is a group called the Light Force saying that over one million people will be sacrificing their lives for the rest of us, through earth changes they are creating before the 21st December next year (the end of the Mayan calendar in case you are wondering about the date) to force humanity to change? What happened to the one perfect sacrifice? Wasn’t the Son of God ENOUGH?
I live in a world where the news is mostly propaganda, where the latest headlines are more important than the simple truth (see my last blog on Sacred Gates Blog - the link is on the right).
Propaganda is defined as a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda
Take the angels .. we have two main kinds in the world, those in the Light and those who are fallen. The fallen you might know better as demons. I believe the angels are supposed to be part of the Light Force .. the good ones .. the ones that say "love one another" and not the ones that say "die for Jesus". We get so upset when someone chooses to "die for Allah", you know them as suicide bombers, and then there were the Kamakaze, who died for their Emperor .. they thought he was a god. They sacrificed themselves for something they believed in, a form of ritual suicide .. taking out as many of the unbelievers as possible .. and they did it for the greater good - the greater good that they believed in, which in a way is understandable, since the Light Force are now saying that the folks who have to die are also doing it for the greater good. But whose Good is it?
Back to JC and the perfect sacrifice. It can't be for God, because God sent Jesus as humanity's redeemer, and s/he doesn't need us to sacrifice ourselves for him/her. So it can't be for humanity for the same reason .. its already been done.
So I ask again, who is it for? Or could it be that someone is lying?
Do the Light angels lie? Or does it simply mean that over one million people will die anyway, in the next two years, due to natural attrition and silly accidents? I certainly hope so.
I will leave you with those thoughts ...
Love & Light

Would you like to know the Truth (Part 2)
What is the Truth? In my opinion, God is big enough to encompass all our Truths without feeling we are not satisfying some integral part of his/her whole being, otherwise why does s/he not act to stop us. Oh yes, free will. That is a subject I have spoken of many times before. God gave us the right to choose the path we follow to him/her. That thought helps to negate the one before. If there is only one path back to God then why did God give us so many other options, paths and belief systems to follow? Or was it the devil? And who is the devil? The one who inspires human nastiness.
Truthfully, I think we are more than capable of being appalling, if not horrific, without any help from an outside entity – but then, I do know demons exist, and are not working for our greater good. But that is another subject.
So where were we in the Truth document?
Will War and Suffering Ever End? The brochure tells us that under His Kingdom, a heavenly government, people will not “learn war anymore”. Instead they will beat their swords into ploughshares ... (Isaiah 2:4), “because the Lord will judge between the nations and shall arbitrate for many people”. Looks like they are still arguing. What is an argument anyway? A difference of opinion. What is a war? A huge difference of opinion. What gives us the right to have opinions different from one another? Will these ‘nations’ (separated by what exactly under God’s one government??) have different opinions? I thought that once we all come together in the end times, those of us good enough to go to wherever Zion is, nothing would separate us from one another, for we are all one people under God? Oh, now I remember, we have free will. Is that taken away when God comes and collects us all? And which God? Do I get to go if I don’t like Jehovah? Why Jehovah? According to 1 Samuel ‘the Lord’ is Jehovah. This part of Isaiah speaks only of the Lord. I am siding with El.
Free will gives us the right to say no to war, if we don’t hand our power over to our governments. Just look at the world today? Does one word you say make any difference to your government’s decision to send troupes to Afghanistan, for example? I don’t think mine does. I have been saying NO since the twin towers catastrophe. No one blamed God for that, no, we blamed the terrorists .. an amphorous mass that the American Government said was Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda – and it well might be him and them. Funny name ‘bin laden’ .. been laden .. with a huge weight on his back if it isn’t him. And is he dead, or really in Pakistan as our Australian news said the other night? (A good reason to invade perhaps?) And how does that relate to God and no war?
God’s children, those of us who believe in him/her, have the right to say ‘no more’. We might only be able to say it in our hearts, and hopefully act from that choice in our everyday lives, but it can be enough to change world energy. So why don’t we? Why do you still argue with your brother, mother, sister, neighbour, Telstra, the guy you owe money to, the one who owes you money, your best friend? Why do you, we, me, still harbour grudges? Why do we still hate ourselves, or even dislike ourselves, without some understanding of the causes and a desire to change? Why do people war with themselves? Because it is that war that creates other wars. For in God’s kingdom, and this is God’s kingdom, regardless of whether you think S/He is here now or not, energy follows thought. If we can learn to love ourselves, and our neighbours, as God, and Jesus, Loves us, then yes, there will be no more war. And we don’t need a second coming for that, nor do we need God to step in and whip the ‘good guys’ (all 144,000 of them? What happens to the other 6+ billion) away to somewhere safe. We can do it now, today. Here. NOW. Not tomorrow. Tomorrow never comes.
And the brochure continues: The bible promises: “God will wipe out (away NOAB) every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry (crying NOAB) nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away”. (Rev 21:3-4) Although they quote only from 21:4 I think 21:3 is interesting as well . “And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying “See, the home of God is among mortals. He will dwell with them; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them.” It raises one question .. are we not already His/her people? Why do we have to wait until the end times to be His/her people? The Watchtower people sincerely believe they are one of God’s people. I believe I am. Why does Revelation seem to separate us from God? I must research that one.
