I first started consciously connecting with my spirit guides eleven years ago. I had been introduced to metaphysics a year and a half earlier, and I was already leading an entirely different life than I had been just a short time before as a professor at Columbia University. The world of intention, vibration and spirit was becoming more and more palpable to me.
And yet sometimes I still felt overwhelmed, confused, and afraid when I looked at the world around me at what I saw to be the ravages of multi-national capitalism and human beings’ devastation of the earth. I did not know how to find hope. And that was 1998—before much of the news about global warming and the collapse of the economy!
So I asked my guides. I didn’t know where else to turn, and the information coming to me from human sources both depressed me, and didn’t seem, well, helpful. So I asked my guides. And what they said astonished and inspired me.
“It can all change in an instant,” they said. I snapped my fingers, gesturing for them through my body. “It can all change, just like that (snap!). When the consciousness of enough of humanity changes, when the vibration is high enough, it can all change, just like that (snap!).”
In the core of my being I knew this to be true, although my mind did not understand it. I still don’t “understand” it. But I have believed it. Believed it on faith, and made it my purpose to support the individuals of humanity with whom I have contact (including myself and my family) to contribute to raising the vibration of that “enough of humanity” to make the change.
That has been and is my sole purpose, my soul purpose—to explore what it means to raise our vibration, to learn to do it, to practice, to share, to guide, to be it, as much as possible, every day. And according to David Hawkins, and spiritual teachers around the globe, the vibrations of Love and Compassion hold the most power (more on this in another article), the greatest magnetic resonance.
And now I see it around me, everywhere. I will be bringing you inspiring examples. For you science lovers, here is the first one. Spontaneous Evolution by Bruce Lipton and Steve Bhaerman uses the example of spontaneous remission of life-threatening illness as an analogy for what can happen for us and our earth with a change in our belief and vibration: “a miraculous healing awaits this planet once we accept our new responsibility to tend the Garden rather than fight over the turf. When a critical mass of people truly own this belief in their hearts and minds and actually begin living from this truth, our world will emerge from the darkness in what will amount to a spontaneous evolution” (xviii).
We all have choices every day, every moment:
• To go into the fear, confusion and overwhelm that is fed to us by the media
• to go unconscious with television, alcohol, consumerism, sugar and false emotion
• or to wake up, to create stories and images of the world we want to live in, to energize them and take action in creating it, to own our own part (and no more), to go into heart and soul and connect ~ to make connection with yourself, with others, and with the earth, the highest priority.
TRY THIS AT HOME
If you believed that it could all “change in an instant,” what would you want the post-change world to be like? What is most important to you, and how would you want to see that valued in your world? Can you draw on your creativity and imagination to paint a vision that astonishes and inspires you?
Most of us first want more vacation. We’re tired, overworked, anxious, and just want a break. Preferably somewhere warm by a crystal blue ocean (okay, that’s my desire). If you could imagine you already had as much vacation as you needed and wanted. You feel rested, vibrant, alive.
Now, what is your contribution to the New Earth? What role are you playing? How are you engaged? In what are people around you engaged and what are your interactions like? Where do you live, how do you live? You can write it, paint it, sing it, talk about it, breathe it in and out.
Send me your visions and I’ll publish them here in my newsletter and blog. Let’s inspire each other!
