Good point about Cayce

I would like to answer you by saying the following. When the traveller is ripe in conciousness, he is in alignment at all times with the entity. There are no dangers of making wrong choices. Although the creator is in all things, remember the traveller still has free will to either learn to listen to that small voice, or perhaps to disregard it's very existence.

The more in tune you are with the entity which I call God the more consciously you walk. The more conscious you are, the less remains hidden. You move in lifestream with the all knowing, all seeing part of YOU and EVERYTHING ELSE.

I believe the Kingdom is within YOU.

"If you have faith and doubt not, if ye shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, it shall be done."

Spiritual awareness is an everyday kind of process. It's never a race to the finish line. We often rush around like mad things. I do too. I make myself stop and look more closely at what God has drafted. If you look at nature you just can't help but see interconnectedness of all things. The ONEness. I'm blown away, especially since the purchase of a digital camera. Today I watched hundreds of dragonflies, last week I saw my first mountain lion. I can't tell you I was not spooked because that would be a huge fib. She was huge and only a few feet from me. I say "She" however, I didn't see the lion was female, just sensed. I know she had cubs near by as I sensed that too. So I won't go on that trail anymore. Good choice or what?

The soul is Gods divine expression mirrored through individual and collective humanity. This interconnectedness extends throughout all creation. The potential in us is limitless because God is limitless. I see that divinity expressed in nature and marvel that somehow it found an expression in me.

Years ago I was on a mad mission to read all the ancient religious scriptures I could. I spent ages mulling over Greek/English translations. Even though I'm a Greek speaker, it was still a daunting task. I could see first hand where the Greek/English translations were in fact erroneous. However it was only when read the Aramaic Peshitta Bible 14 years ago that I was blown away by the information it contained. Things then in the other scriptures made more sense. In Aramaic the word light signifies something all knowing, all intelligent, all conscious. There is no word for evil at all. It simply states one who is not ripe in consciousness. There are no judgements of good or bad. Holy Spirit is divine breath called "Napsha" it's in everything.

Yes, I guess old Constantine has got a lot to answer for. He's not the only one. Many of us do. Funny thing, my maiden name is Constantine which I suppose is quite synchronous in a way.

Well I'm off to bed. I want you to know I don't have all the answers either.I wish I did. I'd probably get more sleep.

I have heard it said, and I have read. If there was only one door, there would only be one key to life. I'm sure there are many doors and many keys, and lots of different paths for different travellers.

May yours be flooded in light always.

Again thank you for your kind words and the time you have taken to share your thoughts. You and I do not disagree on anything, so far, except that one point. You believe that the kingdom is within? If you have read anything that I've written on Oranges and Hyacinths, you know that I believe this as well. You believe that there is only an absence of awareness, not an "evil motive force." I believe in the absence of awareness, but I also know of the "evil motive force" which I suppose could be referred to as the "regenerative aspect" of spirituality.

There is a connection between the number 8, Scorpio, the rain soaked ground and the djinn, sowers of confusion and stokers of temptation. When you find that connection and understand it, you will begin to understand the REALITY of this "regenerative aspect", more commonly referred to as the dark side. It serves a purpose, and that purpose is in alignment with the Will of the Almighty.

Love,

May the rains of consciousness pour upon each and everyone of us gently and generously, and may we all remember, that we recieve wisdom day and night,
turning DARKNESS into LIGHT.

"I'm not here at LL to debate?" Are you saying it's alright for you to state what you feel 'others' are saying, without giving them the opportunity to correct you if you are wrong?

I'm honestly glad you take the time to post your views and to debate them, and also of course to have had the pleasure of correspondence. However fleeting at this time.

I have not had the time, nor the curiosity as yet to look at your camera posting. Perhaps when I get back I'll have the pleasure. So my friend Daf, until we meet again - as I know we will. I bid you farewell and good spaces in between.

With and blessings,
Gia.

When we begin to engage each other on the merits of our beliefs and perspectives, that's when the rerun begins. That's when this simple soul simply needs to get off of the merry go round..enough water has passed under the bridge to have taught me that sometimes when wheels spin, mud flies but noone gets anywhere.

Good luck to you Gia...the next smile you se on my face at the dafcam site is meant for you.

Love,
