The reason that you have so many doubts about humanity’s awakening is because the illusion encloses you in a veil of darkness that hides Reality from you. Reality is everywhere; it is everything; it is all encompassing; and within it you have imagined into existence an unreal, closed, divided, and lonely environment – seemingly very real to you – where you experience yourselves as separated and alone, disconnected from all but your individual human bodies. And these very limiting bodies can enjoy only a very short and limited lifetime. The shortness of your life in the illusion is frighteningly emphasized by the vastness of the visible universe and by the very lengthy duration of its existence in comparison with your own bodily existence.
From a perspective that engages only scientifically, and not spiritually, with its environment life is a puzzle and a disappointment – “What on earth is its point.” Things grow and die in an endless and painful cycle of birth, development, and decay, and the awareness of this that humans have offers absolutely no hope of real meaning.
And yet life and consciousness of it are not something you want to lose. You want this state to last, because despite all the problems it presents to you, there remain sensual, physical and intellectual pleasures and satisfactions that can make it worthwhile – life just for its own sake, like the enthusiastic way that small children engage with it – and you hold on to it ferociously. Also, each of you has within a sense, an ineradicable hope that there must be a meaning to it, that it should not just end after such a brief passage of time, and you wish that you could discover what it is.
So, for as long as you have been experiencing human life you have been searching for its meaning, and also searching for the cause of the disasters that befall you – illness, earthquakes, droughts, floods, volcanic eruptions, and death – and inventing terrible gods whom you believe choose to punish you and whom you must appease. Some still believe in these kinds of gods and use them as justification for the killing and maiming of others!
Always, however, there have been hidden, deep within each one of you, the glowing embers of the inextinguishable fire of God’s Love for you. To find it you have to go within and distance yourselves from the egoic distractions surrounding you. And that is not easy for you, even though there are many who would teach you how, because the majority of those teachers are themselves almost as lost as you are, and are trying to find themselves through your success, should it occur. All of you have been seeking but very few have been finding, because the distractions of the illusion discourage openness to anything that is not of it, anything that its scientific reasoning and logic is unable to prove and disclose.
Rugged persistence and determination are not enough; in fact they act as a block. To access these inner depths you have to surrender to the emptiness or space that appears between your thoughts as you watch them passing while not engaging with them. As all your cultures encourage constant engagement with the contents of your minds, it takes much practice to reverse that habit and disengage for any length of time. A few have managed it and have written about the wonderful experiences that occurred when they succeeded, but for most of you it remains inaccessible. You may well achieve a sense of peace, a quietness that brings stress relief, but those inner depths have remained for the most part hidden and, to all intents and purposes, unknowable.
Now, as the divine field of Love encompassing and enveloping Earth intensifies, access to those inner depths of your being are opening up for you. The quiet sense that you all have, that there is indeed a powerful and mystical meaning to your lives is seeping into your awareness and demanding your attention. Those glowing embers within are being breathed into flame and your desire to join with their Source is becoming irresistible. It still seems unreal, indefinable, and yet you are no longer able to disregard the inner promptings encouraging you to allow your inner world to open up and show you how dearly you are loved, and how inseparable you truly are from the Source of all life.
That Source, God Himself, intends that you become aware of Him because He knows that experiential knowledge of Him will bring you infinite joy, and that is what He wills for you. To know Him is to be one with Him, and the dissolution of the illusion will remove the veil behind which you have been shielding yourselves from Him for far too long. Your awakening is near, and is assured.
With so very much love, Saul.
[FYI. A new book was published yesterday (October23rd) called “Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife.” It was written by Eben Alexander, M.D. It tells the story of his quite amazing NDE – a scientist who did not believe in heaven visited there while in a coma. It is most uplifting and inspiring. I read about on The2012Scenario web site where a review of it from Newsweek had been posted. I ordered it and received it and read it yesterday. For me it was a “WOW” experience. John.]
The rawness of my insides began burning as I read your message. I long to get past the busy thoughts that are constant interruptions. After losing my Soul mate three years ago I kept a daily journal, read books to uplift my sorrow and yes I talk with him aloud. I know that he and I are one created by the Source. I also feel that our meeting on earth was a soul connection. Our long lifetime together was not religious, it was Spiritual. My continued focus is to rejoin him so we can have our next cosmic journey. Is it wrong to love each other passionately while also honoring the Creator for this gift? To not understand the detachment of this partner is struggle enough, and yet I am told I must forget the past. Why?
This magical joy is unforgetable and I now remain in a world I cannot relate to nor want to be in. Please share some insights on this situation as it may also help others who are having this experience. In joy, CS
Dear CS,
As I understand it, on Earth we serve, love, and know God by loving one another. On Earth as a human I do not believe it is not possible to know God directly because the vehicle, our bodies, are so limited and inadequate they just could not cope with unfiltered divine energy at full power.
The loss of a loved one is very tough, it is as though part of oneself had died, it’s like separation all over again, and I guess it most definitely brings to our awareness the inadequacy of the human condition. It is, perhaps, a reminder to us to focus our attention on the spiritual and not allow ourselves to be suckered into taking the illusion too seriously.
Somehow we have to accept that our loved one is now in joy and that our destiny is to join him when we have completed the task we willingly came on Earth to do. Trust in God’s Love for us knowing that we are all one and can never truly be separated from Him or from anyone else, and that we WILL awaken into Reality.
with love,
John.
I, too, lost my Soul Mate…my “completer”, my “other half”, just over three months ago. I can echo Cladon’s feelings almost exactly. I am not interested in being in this hideous construct that we all have been duped into calling “reality” any longer.
I want only to be reunited with her and go off to “play among the stars and galaxies” as we’d always envisioned before the evil cancer and the evil treatments/tortures the so-called “doctors” put her poor body through, as well as the evil hospital bill-collectors who STILL harrass her (and me) even in death.
Please, let this horrible horrible illusion of a “world” end soon!
Your blogs touch my soul and deepen my trust – every time.
Thank you, John.
Thank you Saul,
Thank You 🙂
Thank you for such clarity and I would like to share similar compliment, if I may?
Inspiration is flowing about how programmed we have all become to ignore our own child of God Spirit inside to defer to our un-empowered authoritarian carnivorous nature with a sick loyalty as emotional hostages, pitifully clinging to concrete unreality. Do we only listen when we want to really hear our precious innocent child of God in the Spirit of ONENESS reverie? Is our inner child happy with our lack of responsive humility to all our innocent God twinkling guidance singing?
Can we hear our precious innocent child of God calling so hopelessly to our prison mentality sick loyal ego fear driven slave-like minds dimming? What I hear from my precious innocent Spirit inside this morning is that all of our inner children are finally singing together from our mountain top kindergarten to celebrate emerging joy and harmony, within. Not only are many able to finally hear our collective inner child, but those precious ones that have been so ignored until now are celebrating our willing humility to play attention as one inclusive tone in mutual complicity.

Thank you ‘as always’ for your wonderful postings ! They are truthfully beautiful & meaningful & I always read them, but I’m sorry I don’t normally leave you a comment. This book that you speak of sounds ever so interesting, & will definitely get it to read. I find it also interesting that his life-death story is like many more things that are now becoming manifest…made real unto the physical realm of humanity with proof & new found support from real, main stream intelligent people….How perfectly exciting….it’s about time ! May we ‘All’ keep spreading this Truth & LOve !!!~ Blessings to you for your work & dedication in fanning the Divine Flame !~
“Rugged persistence and determination are not enough; in fact they act as a block.”
So true. My guides are constantly finding ways to tell me that I’m trying too hard. Although it does seem to be getting easier to find “that place” during my meditations lately. Thank you for this message of love and encouragement today!

Regarding surrendering to the emptiness & silence… I think that is a masculine way. The feminine way seems to be the other side of the coin – to fill with love and joy so much that it pours out. Engulfing and washing away that which is so caught up in living.
I don’t know that I’m right. I don’t know that I’m wrong. What I know is this is how it feels for me. And perhaps our words are the same thing.
Blessings to you Saul.

A present:
In Holland they have a /cardiologist (Pim van Lommel) who has studied hundreds of NDE’s and his findings are inspiring:
