' Control over Life '...
You only have control over three things in your life - the thoughts you think, the images you visualize, and the actions you take (your behavior). How you use these three things determines everything you experience. If you don't like what you are producing and experiencing, you have to change your responses.

' From your Heart '...
Give up being right. Instead radiate peace, harmony, love, and laughter from your heart.
.................Deepak Chopra
' All Negativity '...
All negativity is caused by an accumulation of psychological time and denial of the present. Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry - all forms of fear - are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. Guilt, regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness, and all forms of nonforgiveness are caused by too much past, and not enough presence.

' The Ten Commandments '...
Man has made 32 million laws since THE COMMANDMENTS were handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai more than three thousand years ago, but he has never improved on God's law. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS are the principles by which man may live with God and man may live with man. They are the expressions of the mind of God for His creatures. They are the charter and guide of human liberty, for there can be no liberty without the law.

' The Best Thing in Life '...
The best thing in life is to go ahead with all your plans and your dreams, to embrace life and to live everyday with passion, to lose and still keep the faith and to win while being grateful. All of this because the world belongs to those who dare to go after what they want. And because life is really too short to be insignificant.

' Public Opinion '...
When misguided public opinion honors what is despicable and despises what is honorable, punishes virtue and rewards vice, encourages what is harmful and discourages what is useful, applauds falsehood and smothers truth under indifference or insult, a nation turns its back on progress and can be restored only by the terrible lessons of catastrophe.

None will seem alien, all will be your very own Self.

' Gratitude '...
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It turns problems into gifts, failures into successes, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. It can turn an existence into a real life, and disconnected situations into important and beneficial lessons. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. Gratitude makes things right.

' Fear empowers your egos' '...
Fear empowers your egos, but Love dissolves fear.
by John Smallman
.................................
Life is about Love, and nothing else! Yes, I do keep talking about Love, and that’s because all that exists is enfolded most lovingly within It because It is All That Exists. There is not and could not possibly be anything or anywhere else because It is infinitely vast, enveloping all sentient life, all of creation, and thereby satisfying every need and desire, and, of course, all that exists is alive. Every one of God’s infinite number of creations is alive, is sentient, although humanity has chosen to believe that most of the apparently inanimate matter or basic elements which makes up the world of form – in fact the whole universe – is without life, consciousness, or sentience of any kind.
Your mainstream science still believes and continues to spread the message that life just arose by chance for no reason and with no purpose, even though the statistical chance of that happening is beyond the bounds of possibility. Matter and form are no way as simple and basic as they appear when viewed through the very limited lens of perception with which your human forms provide you. What appears to you to be dead matter is not dead, and modern physics has shown very clearly everything is in constant motion, but as to why this is so they have no answer. The truth is that all that exists is eternally connected to the infinite field of energy – LOVE – and is at One with It! And that is why I keep talking about Love!
As you go about your daily lives be aware of how often you seek, are hoping for approval . . . for Love. Most of the time you do not do it consciously, but when you complete a task, mental or physical, there is very often an underlying hope that someone will notice and appreciate you for what you have achieved. In Reality, at One with and fully aware of your existence constantly in the Presence of Mother/Father/God, you always know that you are infinitely loved and appreciated by your Source and you, of course, infinitely love and appreciate Yourself. That is your natural and unchangeable state. As humans in form, the pain of not experiencing or knowing that is overwhelming, and that is why you are always seeking it, even though you mostly do not admit this to yourselves. After all, you believe yourselves to be independent beings, and so you attempt to present an image of yourselves to others that demonstrates this.
I am reminding you that you are Love, presently incarnate in a severely restricted human form, and that you at all times need to be open to Love – Vulnerable! Love is the energy that eternally enlivens existence, and blocking Love due to feelings of unworthiness reduces the life force that empowers beings in form, which is why the thought of being vulnerable terrifies most people, as they identify it, incorrectly, as a loss of their power, whereas in fact to be openly vulnerable by your own choice is to be fully in your power and to demonstrate it to others. And because so many of you feel unworthy, unlovable, unseen, of little value, you present an unreal image or mask to others that your egos have concocted, hoping that they will not see the frightened little you hidden inside. Over time, as you grow from infancy to adulthood, you come to believe that you are the mask that you are presenting to the world, making it extremely difficult for you to see and understand that being in form is an opportunity for you evolve spiritually, for you to become aware of your true nature – Christ Consciousness – eternally at One with Source.
Therefore embrace yourselves! Know yourselves as you truly are, as God knows you and sees you eternally. What God creates is always perfect and remains eternally and unchangeably in that state of perfection. You are as God created You . . . FOREVER. That never changes.
When you make your daily journey deep within yourselves, to your own holy inner sanctuaries – and you do need to do this at least once daily – and when there set the intent to open your hearts to Love and invite It in, Love will bring to your conscious awareness a sense, a knowing deep within youof the divine truth that you have never been separated from your loving Source.
Your sense of separation is illusory, unreal, and yet it gets stronger as you grow from infancy towards adulthood as your egos insist that you are your bodies and nothing more, organisms that are very easily hurt or damaged, and which are eventually destroyed. You value your lives, which is good, but because you believe life is short, temporary, and is terminated at the moment of physical bodily death, you live in terror of losing it. You make great efforts to disguise or bury this fear, because being consciously aware of it drains your energy even further, and confirms for you your ingrained and totally invalid belief in your unworthiness and insignificance, andyour egos encourage this because it gives them great power over you.
You need to tame your egos, and you learn to do this by going within daily and inviting Love into your hearts. When you feel Love within you, you become aware that you have no need of your egos. Fear empowers your egos, but Love dissolves fear. So be with Love, be Love, be vulnerable, thus showing yourselves as you truly are, and in so doing uplifting and inspiring many others, far more than you will be aware of, and thus assisting in bringing the collective awakening process to its most glorious fulfillment. This is why you incarnated, so now complete the process by opening fully to Love and being your true perfect selves – vulnerable, and unconditionally accepting of all others – thus empowering them to open themselves fully and delight in the sense of peace and freedom that this knowing brings them.
Your loving bother, Jesus.

Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion.

' God '...
By 'God', I understand, a substance which is infinite, independent, supremely intelligent, supremely powerful, and which created both myself and everything else [...] that exists. All these attributes are such that, the more carefully I concentrate on them, the less possible it seems that they could have originated from me alone. So, from what has been said it must be concluded that God necessarily exists.

' Alpha Waves '...
Alpha waves in the human brain are between 6 and 8 hertz. The wave frequency of the human cavity resonates between 6 and 8 hertz. All biological systems operate in the same frequency range. The human brain's alpha waves function in this range and the electrical resonance of the earth is between 6 and 8 hertz. Thus, our entire biological system - the brain and the earth itself - work on the same frequencies. If we can control that resonate system electronically, we can directly control the entire mental system of humankind.

' Returning to Reality '...
I have found through personal experience that only the False Self called Ego keeps you from returning to Source... Be it after the death of the body or the suicide of the ego.. The opposite of Love is the belief of ego separation from Source... Once the ego surrenders to the Universe,,, A Wind of Love will throw you to the ground and You will return to the Reality of Source called Light, Wisdom, and Love................... thomas

He said that it freaked them out too much... I often would think of asking him but I honored his decision... He had the ability to connect with Consciousness and find water and could tell you exactly where it was and how many feet to drill.. If you lost a ring or bracelet upon your property,,, he could tell you where it was ,,with the witching sticks.. There was magnetism within his hands.. I thought to myself that I would like to know when death is near as to train my mind for such event,, but, when you are actually close to this event,, your mind changes.. as sickness becomes a partner to your transition....,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, thomas

I'm never bored. I think it's because I have confidence in you, in your thoughts. Do you understand? I love everything I see in you, and everything I don't see. I know your faults, but as it turns out, I feel as though your faults go well with my qualities. We're not afraid of the same things. Even our inner demons go well together! You, you're worth more than you show.

A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks.

Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we're safe in our own paradise.

' The Power of State '...
I will not cede more power to the state. I will not willingly cede more power to anyone, not to the state, not to General Motors, not to the CIO. I will hoard my power like a miser, resisting every effort to drain it away from me. I will then use my power, as I see fit. I mean to live my life an obedient man, but obedient to God, subservient to the wisdom of my ancestors; never to the authority of political truths arived at yesterday at the voting booth. That is a program of sorts, is it not? It is certainly program enough to keep conservatives busy, and Liberals at bay. And the nation free.

' Large numbers of you do still not believe in your own unchangeable perfection. by John Smallman '...
As your collective awakening process approaches completion an enormous amount of ‘stuff’ is bursting into the collective consciousness for acknowledgment, thanks, forgiveness, and release. It holds within it many generations worth of resentment, denial, and anger that has been deeply buried because it was too intensely painful to acknowledge either as it was happening or at any time afterwards, up until now. Now the whole human collective is allowing it into awareness, and with it comes much guilt and shame for past long forgotten words and actions.
It has to be dealt with NOW! Until it is complete your awakening remains on hold. There is only a very little bit more of the awakening process that needs to occur before it comes to its most amazing and magnificent completion. However, all the ‘stuff,’ which is not and cannot be in alignment with Love, has first to be one hundred percent released. A major part of the release is through forgiveness of everything that has collectively been buried and denied–namely not only the words and actions themselves, but also, of extreme importance, the collective shame and guilt arising from those words or actions, which have also been deeply buried and denied.
Guilt and shame are always completely out of alignment with Love, because they refer to something that is totally unreal in so far as nothing that is not of Love exists. But humanity, through generations of conditioning, has an intense belief in the validity of shame and guilt. This HAS to be released, along with all the judgment that has arisen from it.
Mother/Father/God loves you all infinitely because you are Her absolutely perfect children, just as you were created, and there is no way that you have ever departed from that state of perfection. Nonetheless, large numbers of you still do not believe in your own unchangeable perfection, and are at present unable to fully accept and love yourselves, having accepted an invalid and UNreal belief in your shame and guilt. Total and complete self-forgiveness and self-acceptance are essential, and if you will go deep within yourselves, open your hearts and invite Love to enter, It will, and in doing so It will show you clearly, without room for doubt of any kind, your perfect and utter ‘sinlessness!’ You will see and know yourselves as the perfect divine beings that you are, and always have been. What God creates is always and can only be PERFECT! Finally you will know Yourselves, and – inconceivable in your present self-chosen state of unreality – experience the most wonderful sense of Joy! Finally you will recognize yourselves as you truly are, free of every tiny aspect of shadow that has hidden Reality from you ever since you chose to enter the illusion.
The illusion/dream that you are experiencing is unreal and, intellectually, many of you know and accept this. Nevertheless, because your conscious awareness is mostly brain/emotion/body focused, you are generally unconscious – unconscious of your true nature at One with Source – and live guided by your egos far more frequently than by your intuition. This brings the unreality of the dream/illusion into sharp focus making your human lives seem very real. Some of you, some humans, occasionally spend time daily in prayer or contemplation, when you can spare the time from dealing with the daily events with which life is almost constantly presenting you. However, the ‘stuff’ now arising is very powerfully demanding your attention, and it is not something that your egos wish to attend to. This creates conflict within you, and your egos will do their best to distract you, causing you further fear, worries, and anxiety.
So now, more than ever before in your lives, you do need tospare the timeto go deep within, disregarding any feelings of shame or unworthiness that may arise, while having the patience to wait as your overly active minds quieten enough for you to be still and be at peace, or at least feel relatively calm, thus allowing Love to enter your hearts. Because you each have totally free wills unless you invite and allow Love to enter It cannot do so. When you do make a very positive commitment to invite Love in, It will powerfully assist you to recognize that you are and always have been perfect divine beings, freeing you from your invalid and misguided beliefs and thereby enthusiastically encouraging you to release your remaining attachments to shame, guilt, and unworthiness. Total self-acceptance will become established, as you forgive yourselves for all the errorsand unloving words or actions you have delivered during your human lives while believing that they really occurred. As you actually feel Love embracing you whole-heartedly and unconditionally – which is the One and only way in which It always expresses Itself, reveals Its Presence – It will most beautifully confirm for you that you truly are perfect divine beings.
Therefore, I would substantiate for you once more that you are all, without any exceptions, perfect divine beings having a momentary experience of separation in which there seems to be extreme pain and suffering for vast numbers of you. That state is Unreal, and you will awaken, because to do so is your destiny, returning you to your divine and sovereign state at One with Source in utter joy.
Your loving brother, Jesus.

' Government of the People '...
Whenever the government of the United States shall break up, it will probably be in consequence of a false direction having been given to publick opinion. This is the weak point of our defenses, and the part to which the enemies of the system will direct all their attacks. Opinion can be so perverted as to cause the false to seem the true; the enemy, a friend, and the friend, an enemy; the best interests of the nation to appear insignificant, and trifles of moment; in a word, the right the wrong, and the wrong the right.

' God/Love/Source never punishes anyone! by John Smallman '...
Here in the spiritual or non-physical realms we are very much aware of your concerns and anxieties as chaos and confusion seem to be escalating on your beautiful planet Earth. DO make a point of starting your day by going deep within yourselves, to your holy inner sanctuaries, and then opening your hearts to Love, which resides there permanently, waiting patiently, ready and most willing to embrace and comfort you when you choose and remember to invite It in.
You are never unloved, or without Love. Such a state is impossible because Love is your true nature, as you do know deep within yourselves; and It is always with you, It is You. However, it often seems to you that you are without It, living unloved and abandoned in an inhospitable world. And yet you do know that this is not the case, that it only appears that way because of your choice to enter the illusion and play the game of separation, a game which, while you are playing it, seems VERY real, VERY serious, and VERY important. That was your intention when you collectively constructed it, and because you have the power and creative abilities of your dearly loving Father, bestowed upon you at the moment of your creation, you were indeed able to construct an unreal environment that appears to be amazingly real.
By establishing a daily routine of going deep within yourselves, at whatever time you are most comfortable with – because starting the day that way does not work for everyone – and opening yourselves and inviting Love to embrace you, you very effectively strengthen your deep inner knowing that the human life you are experiencing is unreal, as your sensitivity to feeling and being aware of the Reality of the Presence of Love grows. Love is always present because It Is All, everywhere, Now, eternally, without interruption, and It wants you to feel It and be aware of It, and welcome It into your hearts so that you feel and delight in Its loving and comforting embrace.
However, many of you feel unworthy of being in Its Presence, and have deeply ingrained beliefs that confirm this at a level below your level of conscious awareness. Therefore, it is essential that you remind yourselves daily that these damaging beliefs are faulty, are invalid. At first your egos will likely try to distract you by drawing your attention to the discomfort you feel when you tell yourselves that you are worthy of God’s Love, and by then suggesting that humans can only beunworthy by drawing your attention to the harm you are collectively and constantly causing one another and the planet. And, of course, that is a valid observation of what is occurring in the game/illusion in which you are experiencing separation. But that does not make it Real!
There is NO separation. You are all eternally One, living in perfect and uninterruptible harmony with Source, and you ARE utterly and completely worthy of being in Love’s Presence. Therefore dissolve those invalid beliefs by reminding yourselves whenever they arise that they are invalid, untrue, and then refusing to accept them. This may take a while because your beliefs tend to be very deeply ingrained. As they continue to arise make the point, again and again, of reminding yourselves – repetition is essential – that they are invalid, untrue, and lies, then disregard them and invite Love to embrace you, which, of course, Itwill.
Many of you are devoted to saints and holy people who you believe led almost flawless lives as they lovingly served God and others. Nevertheless, they too had strong beliefs about their inadequacy or unworthiness that often drove them to make totally uncalled for personal sacrifices because of the cultural and religious environments in which they grew up. Sin, shame, and unworthiness entangled in the harshness of the Protestant Work Ethic, made judgment a major aspect of life for many of them. Judging themselves negatively, observing and judging others negatively, and sometimes condemning those others, further encouraged them to lead austere lives following stringent, unloving, and painful disciplines in attempts to prove to God that they truly loved Him, would do anything for Him, and to demonstrate to others what they believed God required of every human.
However, God never ever wants any of His beloved children to make sacrifices to prove they love Him, to do that would indeed be insane! No one wants another whom they truly love to prove their love by making sacrifices. Nor does God. Love is utterly and totally accepting of all unconditionally because that is the nature of Love. God is Love, eternally loving His creations and all His sentient, conscious, and utterly loving children.
Love loves, period!
So those saints and holy ones were not pleasing God by treating themselves so unlovingly! And frequently, deep within themselves, denied and hidden from their awareness, lay an unacknowledged bitterness and resentment, because life appeared to be treating them so unfairly, while ‘sinners’ appeared to live freely enjoying life, suffering no punishment for their sinfulness.
God/Love/Source never punishes anyone! Punishment is unreal! How could the One Who is Love, and Who creates perfect beings, ever choose to punish any of them? Within the dream/illusory state of form it seems that great evil is doing horrific damage and causing unconscionable suffering to enormous numbers of people. But you must keep reminding yourselves that your lives in form are unreal! Yes, they can be extremely painful, and you can suffer enormously during them, but that experience that you are undergoing as a human in form is a free will choice that each of you made prior to incarnating to magnificently assist in humanity’s collective awakening process. There is no evil, there is no hell, they are just aspects of the unreality that you collectively established when you constructed an illusion in which to experience separation from your Source.Love is All, All That Is. Evil, sin, and hell are just unreal aspects of that unreality you constructed to experience separation, and when you awaken, because they are unreal, they will be gone
When you awaken, as very soon you will, you will find yourselves fully conscious and fully aware of your Real nature, and there will be nothing in the environment that is not in complete and eternal alignment with Love. How could any kind of unreal and non-existent state be present in Reality? You are One with Love in eternal Oneness or Co-existence, living in glorious harmony now and forever as One, there is nothing existing, no other state that is the slightest or smallest bit different anywhere else because there is nowhere else!
Your loving brother, Jesus.
' Many Paths '...
Do not praise your own faith exclusively so that you disbelieve all the rest. If you do this you will miss much good. Nay, you will miss the whole truth of the matter. God, the Omniscient and the Omnipresent, cannot be confined to any one creed, for He says in the Quran, wheresoever ye turn, there is the face of Allah. Everybody praises what he knows. His God is his own creature, and in praising it, he praises himself. Which he would not do if he were just, for his dislike is based on ignorance.

' Take it all Back '...
Take it all back. Life is boring, except for flowers, sunshine, your perfect legs. A glass of cold water when you are really thirsty. The way bodies fit together. Fresh and young and sweet. Coffee in the morning. These are just moments. I struggle with the in-betweens. I just want to never stop loving like there is nothing else to do, because what else is there to do?

' Relative Ignorance '...
Most people, including ourselves, live in a world of relative ignorance. We are even comfortable with that ignorance, because it is all we know. When we first start facing truth, the process may be frightening, and many people run back to their old lives. But if you continue to seek truth, you will eventually be able to handle it better. In fact, you want more! It's true that many people around you now may think you are weird or even a danger to society, but you don't care. Once you've tasted the truth, you won't ever want to go back to being ignorant

Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.
........................Blaise Pascal
' Life so Brief '...
The life so brief, the art so long in the learning, the attempt so hard, the conquest so sharp, the fearful joy that ever slips away so quickly - by all this I mean love, which so sorely astounds my feeling with its wondrous operation, that when I think upon it I scarce know whether I wake or sleep.

My dear, In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love. In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile. In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm. I realized, through it all, that… In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back. Truly yours, Albert Camus

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
...............Walter Scott
' Loving a Woman '...
You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her. Never underestimate the power of love. The way to love anything is to realize it may be lost. The heart has its reasons that reason does not know at all. Music is love in search of a word. There is pleasure in the pathless woods; there is a rapture on the lonely shore; There is society, where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar.
.........................Lord Byron

There's a little thing on your shoulder called intuition and it whispers in your ear. Everyone has that, there is a voice telling you to do something. Most people ignore it - but you must listen to it. I do it every day, all day.

' May the Force be with You '...
'May the Force be with you' is charming but it's not important. What's important is that you become the Force - for yourself and perhaps for other people.
