Integrating with Higher Realms - Part 6 of 6

Previous Part

Enter into the walk upon Terra, enter into the joy of that walk and decide, if you will, that you shall pick up the walking stick and move on. And in the picking up of the stick, then, the intent is given, the direction of the will is set and the journey continues. O what a journey it has been! What a grand, grand journey indeed. And some are weary, but not for long, for the waters, the waters are falling for the clearing of the energies. The energies are being cleared daily, cycle by cycle.

And some remain within their huts and say, "I do not desire to get wet." And some have looked out of the window of their hut and have said, "O the waters of life, O the purifying waters, how I would bathe in them, how I would come out of my defense mechanisms, of my shell, of my protection that I have created with the ego! And how I would dare to get wet, for I know that when I do enter in and allow the waters to flow upon my being, they will wash over the layers that I have built, that I have created around myself, and further out into my auric force field as thick layers of the walls of the hut."

And in some cases it is not even a hut, it is in fact and in deed, a grand palace that appears to be the ultimate of the heart's desire. And yet it is a protective place, it is a palace that has been created to protect one from the elements that surround us, that are the instruments for purification and then expansion, and then integration.

So we recognize that this building that we have created around ourselves, even though it be O so sophisticated, is but a protection that has served us, perhaps, when those elements were too great for us to deal with. Or simply we did not wish to confront the cold, we did not wish to confront the uncomfortability of the elements, but now we say, "Thank you, thank you very much, O my hut, O my palace that I have created over so long with the energies of the ego, of the outer self, having made use of the Light that has flowed from above and through me, unto the periphery for the building of this protection.

"Thank you, for you have served me, and yet I must move on, for the wind beckons me, the beauty of the wind and the freshness of that air beckons unto my soul and says, 'Come, come and fly with me, come, come and bear the brunt of the elements, for in your flight you shall transcend the elements, first by merging with them, by becoming one with them, by integrating the elements of fire, air, water and earth, and by purifying them, purifying those elements within self so that now, the expression of matter within our own sphere of being, within our own house has become truly the place of Center, and Home has taken on the vibrations of the OM, of the One, of the All.'"

Therefore embrace, pick up the walking stick, and place the little backpack on the back and say, "I move on, on my journey with all of the avatars that have gone before me, those that have walked the walk, that know the way, and I shall walk that way, and indeed create a new way, create a new path in the New Energy, for possibilities have expanded now, for my contact with the Flame, with the energy that flows from above unto the heart, bursts as a spark of energy and manifests in the matter plane. O that funnel has opened wider and wider, and the only limitation to its ongoing expansion is my own, is that which I set before me."

And some therefore have said, and say, "O no, I will not even leave my hut, I shall stay here in the comfort, or so I think, of this protection. Yes, I miss the winds in my hair and in my garments. Yes, I miss the flow of the waters washing me clean. Yes, I miss the hot heat of the fire. Yes, I miss the feel of the Earth upon my feet, but I will not take the risk, not today, not now!"

And others will say, "O how I feel the movement within me, how I feel the awakening of the soul, how I feel the fires that say, 'move on, move onward, O soul, for there is great excitement that awaits thee; there is the thrill of the elements and the possibilities of creation with these elements.' O what shall it give me when I combine the fire with the air, what shall it give me when I combine the waters with the earth, what shall it give me when I try out these various formulas and I infill them all with spirit from above?

"O the joys of creation, how I feel them, how I see glimpses of possibilities that I do not yet fully understand, that I cannot conceive of in the outer mind, and yet that my soul feels from within! So I take up my walking stick and there is thrill, there is the thrill of excitement!

"And lurking behind the thrill as though to thwart the thrill and the excitement is that little bit of fear that manifests as a certain anxiety, and yet I say, 'No, I will not listen to you. You may come along for the ride, and you may be transformed in the miracle of all that I experience, for I desire to create new paths in the Earth. I desire to climb new heights in the Earth. I desire to soar unto new avenues that have not yet been traversed in the air. I desire to plunge to the depths of the waters, where I may go within and feel, feel the stillness of the drop of the water, deep within, deep within, where peace abides, where joy abides, and there I go, O soul.'

How we thrill at the journey that we decide to continue to walk. Out the door we go, and we begin our sojourn and we live through the day, and the sun does shine, and we think, "why, what a joy it is to walk in the air, and to feel the heat of the sun, and to feel the earth beneath my feet, and to dip my body in the waters."

And then, beloved, cycles turn, and as you have integrated these joys and you have grown within the joys, you then begin to hear the wind howling, and that little bit of fear, of anxiety that is upon your back says, "Aha, you see, the storm is arising, and where is our hut, O soul?", and that little part that is of the ego, that belongs to the defense mechanism that we have built as our protection in the hut says, "What have you gotten us into, now, you bad soul!?"

And the soul shirks the little child, who is infilled with the spirit of adventure, but now says, "O my, have I perhaps gone astray, have I perhaps been foolhardy in my little bit of excitement, and gotten myself into a big, big mess?" And yet it cannot be hid. Deep within the soul there is still the thrill that says, "move on, O soul, move on, for there yet awaits a new day of sun, even though the wind be howling, even though the clouds are emerging, even though the cold is upon the skin, and the feet that were once bare upon the Earth and feeling the comfort of that Earth now are beaten and are hurting and are in fact paining."

We therefore say, "Move on, move on, O soul, for you do indeed know the thrill that is within, and you may indeed honor that thrill." And so we face the tempest, and that little one within has the certain awareness that it is indeed only a tempest in a teapot, and that all that is real today, and all that is a tribulation today is ultimately the purification of the jewel within, that will allow us to transcend the elements that are having us labor today. For we have not yet learned to control these elements, and to flow with these elements, and to change temperatures within, without, to change and adjust vibrations within, without, so that there is a harmonic tone in the vibrations, so that as the vibrations shift, we make the shift. And as the shifts take place from without, we from within can control those shifts and we are one.

And so the soul takes courage and moves on, and says, "I shall continue!" And the soul makes it through the cold, beloved, that is for the purification of the emotions of the etheric body within, for the purification of the vision that we carry within our memory of higher ways, of higher vibrations, of transformations of energies. And then, the new day appears again, and the sun is to our pleasing, and all the elements then adjust once again to fit our own vibrations, and we take comfort and we say, "Ah, this is quite well, for I did trust, and I did well to trust."

And the journey continues, beloved, and what do we find now? We find cold, and we find new levels of changes without that throw us once again unto the periphery of being, dialoging not with the little child and the thrill of the little child, but dialoging with the outer consciousness and the ego and the defense mechanisms, that will begin once again to point at the little child and say, "why do you insist upon delivering me unto such uncomfortabilities, when I was O so comfortable within my hut?"

The struggle goes on and on and on, until we reach a point on the journey, with the walking stick in hand, where the stick has become a Rod, truly a Rod of Transformation, where now we may control from the fire of the Center within, we may control all that abides within our sphere, and all is at peace.

We then experience the elements as unification, as harmonization, as opportunity for growth, for new levels of integration. And then, beloved, we come to a new place, ah, the place of the true palace of Light, that we have built at inner levels, and we find this place on our journey. And we enter this place of Light.

There we decide the temperature and the elements that we would experience, even as we decide the temperature that we would have within our home, even as we decide how warm or how cold it shall be within our home. And we may turn the thermostat at will, and there we understand the journey.

We have understood the journey, and we realize as we remove the backpack from our back, that that part and parcel and little package of self, of ego, that we had created, that had spoken to us and said, "why did you make these choices?" is no longer there. Somewhere along the journey it was transformed by the elements. It is no more.

Now we may continue when we have spent a beautiful time within our beautiful palace that we have met. We may continue other heights, other journeys, other adventures when we desire it, when we are ready, when the cycles from within speak to us again and say, "move on, move on, move on..."

The joy of the journey, the joy of the Rod, the joy of courage that allows us to listen to the little one within, and to value that little one sufficiently to say, "yes, I hear you, O blessed one, I hear you and I shall move with the impulse of your desiring, for I know that that impulse shall lead me to greater creation. Therefore in the heart, in the Center, we are One.
