72nd talk with Rita – 4-3-2015

Friday, April 3, 2015

F: And, Miss Rita, I hear you ready to come in, at just 6 a.m., after I have been writing to myself for half an hour.

R: It is the writing to yourself that I wish to remind you not to overlook. One pitfall of regular communication with others is that you may neglect to communicate with yourself.

F: Thoreau said it long ago, something like, “depend on it, the man who walks away from the post office with the most letters hasn’t heard from himself in a long time.”

R: An overstatement, perhaps, but a pointed one, and obviously it resonated with you, enough that you remembered it well enough to be able to paraphrase it. But it is not enough to be able to quote wisdom; not enough, even, to agree with it. You must live it, or what good is it to you?

71st talk with Rita – 4-1-2015

Wednesday, April 1, 2015

F: 6 a.m. Well, Miss Rita, what of the second of John Wolf’s questions? Again, something I don’t know anything about, not having heard Martin’s session with whoever this was. By the way, I find it interesting that old Explorer tapes are being mentioned, in light of [TMI Board member] Al Dahlberg saying that TMI is considering starting that program back up again.

R: You thinking its time has come again. Well, it seems it has. I know you won’t be sorry to see it.

F: Hardly. Not a moment too soon, if you ask me. In fact, long overdue. So – aspects and strands?

70th talk with Rita — 3-31-2015

Tuesday, March 31, 2015

F: 4 a.m. John Dorsey Wolf poses exactly the kind of question I have been dreading, one where Rita has to know the answer, and I don’t, and can’t surmise it. In other words, the question puts me on the spot and mobilizes and activates all my own doubts about the process. In short, “what if I’m only making this stuff up?” So – good questions. Miss Rita? You up to the challenge?

R: You mean – am I really here? Do I really exist?

F: More like, are we really in contact? Retrieving factual information has always been a big hurdle for me, and I draw my conclusions [from that fact].

R: The questions involve Explorer tape 19 on Love Fear and Higher Consciousness – who was the non-3D source – and tape 29 on Aspects – are they related to strands?

So You Think Your Life Was Wasted (10)

Our connections and what they can accomplish

Outside time-space, neither separation nor delayed consequences apply. Since we exist part in and part out of separation, it is helpful to realize that a vital part of our nature exists on the other side. It will save you from the superstition of thinking you are an orphan of the universe, marooned without connections on a pointless and mysterious ride from nowhere to nowhere. It will also make clear to you the nature of guidance as it may be experienced.

So You Think Your Life Was Wasted (3)

As I said last week, most people find it hard to formulate a believable vision of the afterlife. As the minds that I call The Guys Upstairs once said (via writing),  “It is from lack of a plausible model more than from any other single thing that the division between seen and unseen world has come to seem so absolute.”

Over the course of several days in the  summer of 2007, they talked to me about the nature of the soul. I put the entire 5,000-word discussion (and two diagrams) onto this blog, as “A Working Model Of Minds On The Other Side,” and provided the gist of the material in an article for The Meta Arts. That material provides us with our jumping-off place for further consideration of the question of the meaning or meaninglessness of our lives.

The Threshold to the Other Side

Written by Jason Bellows on 24 April 2006

Light at the end of the tunnelThe phenomenon of near death experiences (NDEs) are as old as life itself, and to some people they are spiritual and moving tales that affirm a life after death, and interpreted as indisputable proof of the existence of god.

For any not already familiar, in the west most of the NDEs contain some basic points, where a person who dies floats out of the body, and looks back at the remains from a point above. The period of this external watching varies in time from a few seconds to more than an hour.

There is a generally a feeling a weightlessness. Almost invariably the deceased succumbs to a second stage, of being drawn to a tunnel with a clear, white light at the end. Sometimes they are drawn in by a gentle, deep voice, sometimes by the beckoning of loved ones, and sometimes by an indescribable urge. Sometimes they reach the light, and sometimes they do not. There is often a period of watching the events of one’s own life as a panoramic, and some report conversations with god, usually Jesus. Then, inevitably in order to come back to life and tell the tale, the deceased must return to life. The means that turns them back is variegated, but some common examples include an angelic messenger turning them back because their time has not yet come, a previously deceased family member sending them back, or turning away from the light of their own accord for the love of those left behind.
