A Higher Perspective

There are powerful spiritual Laws we can all learn and use.

Emily Dickinson said it: “All I know of Love, is Love is all there is.”

“Be still and know that I am God.” The presence of our Creator wells up within us in the stillness. We feel peace and joy.

I love Eckhart Tolle’s book Stillness Speaks, a wonderful book that affirms this idea.
Meditating is the ideal way to hear your still, small voice. The YouTube video at the end of this blog is a meditation with Eckhart Tolle. It’s not a lecture. You can meditate right along with Eckhart. It brought me so much peace and the feeling that all is well.

God is Love and everywhere present.

“Our only responsibility is to accept the Atonement for ourselves.” Atonement means being at one with our Creator and all that is, Oneness. (Via “A Course in Miracles,” Foundation for Inner Peace.)

“Birds of a feather flock together”– My mom’s favorite expression. Better known as the Law of Attraction.

You are a perfect, unique, innocent, child of God, who loves you beyond your comprehension. You inherited your Father-Mother God’s ability to create. You create by your thoughts, words and feelings. Tell the story to yourself and others, your story, the story that you WANT to live. As we affirm and tell our story the way we want it to be we create it. We need to believe it to see it. — Sananda, Abraham and Saint Germaine

There are two very important components to manifesting, allowing and receiving your Good. One, Forgiveness of yourself and others, and two, BEING in the qualities of gratitude, thanks and appreciation.

Forgiveness returns us to love. A wonderful book by that name, A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson, teaches us, in depth, how Love does its job as we forgive ourselves and others.

Thanks, Gratitude and Appreciation put us in the vibration of Love where we can create and allow our good. A wonderful book, Ask and It is Given, by Esther and Jerry Hicks, teaches us the nuts and bolts of vibrational creation and manifesting, by using rampages of appreciation and intentionally feeling good by focusing on what we want to create.

Note: we also have the ability to temporarily block our good by un-love, which is in truth a fiction because Love is all there is. We do this by using our free will backwards by criticizing, condemning and complaining. We can quickly jump forward by realizing we are love and have the ability to create a wonderful life for ourselves by returning to Love.

There you have it. Many of the simple yet powerful laws of the Universe that manifest in infinite ways.

So, as Abraham says, through the Hicks material, the most important thing is for us to feel good. As we feel good we can create our desires.

Enjoy the fun, joy and satisfaction of creating your good by letting Love do its job.

Simplicity

Simplicity

I have read the statement “God is Simple” many times in spiritual texts from many different authors. I believe God is simple. God is Love. A Course in Miracles states: “Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Therein lies the Peace of God.” Simple. I have used that often when I have been in “tight spots,” or to bring myself to a state of Peace. I love simplicity.

In one of the last Star Trek Movies, Spock was standing next to his computer and that same statement from A Course in Miracles was on his monitor. It was slightly in the background, but plain enough to see. I smiled and wondered how often it was noticed.

The photos today are how simple it is to help our Earth and ourselves to be very much healthier and happier.

In one of my favorite books, Love Without End: Jesus Speaks…, by Glenda Green, Jesus tells us very simple ways to improve our lives. One of my favorites is to contemplate infinity every day. Look at the stars, or horizon or just imagine the infinite love of the Creator for you and the Creation. A simple moment that can change your whole day for the better.  Also view the sunrise and sunset. Watching the sunset gets your mind and physical body ready for a good night’s sleep. Especially when you add thanks for all the goodness of the day. Also, watching the sunrise sets your body for activity and gives the energy and fire of life.

About 23 years ago I asked my self how I could help the earth. I wanted to donate to organizations that had missions of helping, when I realized I could help very simply by buying organic foods. I had worked for the Animal Protection Institute in the 70s and Planetary Citizens in the 80s and understood that much of the monies donated were used for overhead. I do believe in the good work of non-profits. My love of simplicity led me to choose to use my money to help the Earth and water by buying organic products whenever I could. Organic foods help the soil, bees, butterflies, water, including our life-giving oceans, farmers’ health and our health.

At this same time is when I discovered Numi organic tea. A brother and sister who are passionate about tea and helping the Earth and her people started this company. I was so happy to purchase the little woven basket of five tea bags. Today, about 25 years later, their tea company has expanded to being fair trade and helping an organization: H2OPE helping water, soil and farmers. I have loved watching them expand over the years. I’m a lifelong tea lover and theirs are my favorite. Now I have even seen their teas in hotel room coffee and tea service. Their bottle is beautiful. Today the lid contained the Arabic Proverb, “The mind is for seeing, the heart is for hearing.”

We are all One, loving the Earth is loving your body. I feel we are all joining together in knowing this. One of my favorite songs that one of my friends often sings is the Shaker song “Simple Gifts.”

Simplicity

Love, Gratitude, and Forgiveness

Love, Gratitude and Forgiveness

Love, Gratitude and Forgiveness are Divine frequencies that hold us in Real Life, not in illusion that is created by our beliefs in separation from the Universe of Good.

When we go to, and are in, Divine frequencies, we are with God. We are then one with God in our own belief. We are always one with God in Reality. When we accept this atonement for ourselves we are fulfilling what A Course in Miracles, Foundation for Inner Peace, states is our only Real responsibility.

Practicing these qualities will never fail to bring you to the next highest vibration you can accept. Soon, even though a moment ago you were in a disturbing feeling, you can keep “turning the other cheek” and focusing on your Good. Your Divinity. Your Goodness. Your Innocence. You can accept your Self Acceptance and know you are Unified with Divine Love.

Both of these courses, A Course in Miracles and Unified: A Course on Truth and Practical Guidance from Babaji (by Roger G. Lanphear), have helped me so much over the years to grow spiritually and to help others heal and find Peace. When Babaji tells us we need to accept our Self Acceptance, at first I thought that was redundant. After reflection I realized that we can have a drink of water, but to accept it we have to drink it. When we accept our Self Acceptance it is so much easier to accept others’.

We are all so unique that only our Creator and ourselves really know us. I feel that is how the Divine calls us home, to Peace, Love and Joy.

Foundations of metaphysical practice

Bridges of Love-Light is a spiritual blog where I hope to share with you metaphysical principles that have helped me immeasurably in my life.  I’ve learned that when I return to the love that I am (and you are), I’m ready to learn what my higher guidance wishes to teach me.  That is one of the foundation principals we will be working with in this space.

My intention is to give you metaphysical (beyond and above the physical; ie. Spiritual, thought, feelings, visions, dreams, vibrations, and frequencies), tools that are simple and easy to use.  You just need to remember to use them.  One of my spiritual teachers, V.T. (Valorie Taylor), told me that that was the entire spiritual path, that we remember to use and practice, practice, practice, practice the simple tools given to us. We will be working  primarily with thoughts, feelings, and your spiritual high- self.  I’m a channel for Sananda (a current name for Jesus, and a call to souls who know him by that name), Kudos (7 spirit Dolphins) and Lela (my high-self).
