I am an Essene Christian ( read as Esoteric rather then Exoteric) referencing the teachings of Dr Stylianos Atteshlis (aka Daskalos)
The world needs my care. How could I offer myself more fully to the cares of the world?
No, the world does not need my care. It, (and the entire universe), IS under the care / maintenance / supervision of Intelligence far, far, more powerful then any Human caring can give it. And it is these same Intelligences which are caring for, maintaining, the physical body I am in right now.

What is required of me is THE AWARENESS of the fact that If I damage or interfere, in anyway, the works these Intelligence are doing for the earth, it is the same as if I were damaging my physical body.
What is the “great fullness” of my life?
Being blessed with meeting truly wonderful human beings who can convey the meaning of the word “Love” …..by demonstrating it….not just talking the talk.
An Example…
“Now, do the archangels know our languages? Can a human being know the language of all human beings? Of course if they reach the vibrations of the meaning and not the vibrations giving sounds. [20:04]
So not relying on the ...
So not relying on the sounds the vibrations making this sounds only, because they are also powerful, but in the vibrations of the things needed, you become the master of those things.
Now to my own experience, do I come in contact with archangels? They are not very far away they are in our bodies, in my body and in your body, just concentrating in your body you can come in contact with any Archangel of any of the orders working in your body. [20:15]
Now, how do you come in contact with them? By vibrating the general meaning of all things.
Which is what? Love.
But now again what is love?
If I could just make You can just understand how difficult it is to understand what is love! [ laughter ]. Because you really make dirty love by giving it names of any language. When I say the word “Libra” “Agape” for love [more words in diff languages said ] for love and just this meaning…. in any language… it makes it dirty. When [the word] love comes out of the mouth they’re [?just words?] in languages flying away.
So what is life, what is love then? The soundless coming-out of the heart. The highest meaning expressed in action and not by words.
So should we not believe people telling us they love us?
Of course! But not absolutely [laughter] because they may deceive themselves that they [may think they] love and they shouldn’t offend people. Why should we? [There is] so much they can understand what is love.
Sometime [ago] someone has asked me, “what is love and what is not love?” [24:15]
[What] You call [it] love, I said, which is not love, is [like] a check what you put your signature but you do not have the money in the bank [to cover the cheque value] [iow] So the cheque has no value.
Love is doing/giving something without having to sign [a cheque] , but silently, without saying anything. open your [?word?] heart and give.. He did not understand what I said. He asked, “Money what money, money in the bank? Which bank? [ laughter ]…….the bank which God gave to you! He, asked where? I said, “your heart, that is your bank.”
And we should see if there is substance in it, money and it, before signing checks and giving them out. [26:10]
Now what is then the universal language and universal value of things in the world of existence?
Love.
It re-minds one stay in touch with those others who are working for the advancement towards Self-Realization, Locally and Globally

Here are just two of the heartfelt responses we received from people who participated in the event when it first launched earlier this week:
“When Eckhart explained that life has arranged it in such a way that unconsciousness in humans creates problems and suffering . . . and then it is those very problems and our suffering that causes humans to potentially awaken . . . I felt such a sense of hope for the future and a profound responsibility to wake up!” —Mary O.
“Hearing Deepak say that we’re all being challenged – including him! – to see ourselves in the other because that is how we will come to know our true selves and because it is the very definition and highest expression of love, I felt humbled and inspired.” —Elsa R.
We hope you’ll be able to join Deepak and Eckhart, along with thousands of people from around the world, as they reveal how you can use the discord in your life and in the world to cross the chasms between us and ultimately to find a sense of peace, empowerment and connection.

“If I felt that I truly have and am enough, what would I share freely?”
Now there is a fun question!
Reply: ……The power of Visualization….because….as Essene Christian taught and lived it …..

“Everything there is created by your thought. Now maybe you can see why we stress the importance of visualization.[MIP] [ Sufi “Visualization IS INDEED Heaven”]] When you achieve good skills of being able to visualize clearly and steadily, you do not realize it yet, but it is like you are becoming wealthy. In the worlds beyond, visualization means having. So it is best to learn it now before crossing over. Virtually everyone on Earth would have preferred to be born into a very wealthy family. But ifyou pass over to the higher worlds with a developed skill of visualization skill, it is like being born wealthy there. Being able to visualize means you are mastering the light. But you need practice over time. Truly the benefit of being able to visualize well is greater than getting any amount of money. Material wealth does not mean a lot because you have no need of currency when you pass over. But the skill of visualization travels with you in to all the Worlds of Existence. It becomes yours; once you get it, no person or thing can take it away like can happen with material things. So it is very important for our life on earth and in the worlds beyond that we learn to visualize. END QUOTE
The question of the day here contains the words “just world”.
That is a very open choice of words! It can just about mean anything! But reading it my contribution to “just” to-day was to listen and transcribe a one hour conversation between Chopra and Tolle on the current Psyche / Collective Consciousness / of the Western world.

That is a very open choice of words! It can just about mean anything! But reading it my contribution to “just” to-day was to listen and transcribe a one hour conversation between Chopra and Tolle on the current Psyche / Collective Consciousness / of the Western world. A lot is being said about certain leaders in Social media / media / religious leaders / Academics etc BUT very little is said by them about what the real source of the problem is. Both speaks to-day acknowledge that the source is not external …it is internal, meaning in the psyche of the populations. ……..here are brief quotes from both Chopra and Tolle
Chopra: Ultimately the present/past political leaders are not the problem, they are but localized expressions of the Turbulence in the collective consciousness and divided minds of the population. The ideal solution…as difficult as it may seem …will be a change of Consciousness at a massive scale leading into an evolutionary direction of collective evolution…..stating with
Stop ‘taking sides’ altogether.
Practice and rest in “Awareness” ( this requires good skills of Observation, Concentration, Visualization, Introspection, and finally Meditation. ) Introspection is the key / active / action.
Be the Change your heart (not your egoism) wants to see in the world…be it thought / action / social interactions / the service we put out into the world. …Gandi
Tolle: Quoting a French proverb “Every country has the Government it deserves”.
Which means, whatever you experience externally as a Political / Social / situation in your Country …it is an externalization of the collective consciousness in that country. So, therefore the problem is never “out there”, whatever conflict is happening “out there “ experienced in the external world is a reflection of the level of unconsciousness in the human psyche of its citizens. And that place (psyche) is the only place we can go to development of awareness and rise beyond the conflict. The is no Ultimate solution in the external world. END QUOTES
What is calling out for remembrance today?
“Do this in remembrance of me.”
“re-member-ance” of what those words within the N.T. say and mean. They are the most quoted and yet most mis-understood (and therefore least practiced) of any of the requests made by J.E. the Christ to humankind.
Question 1: What can envy teach me?
It demonstrates a basic principle of one’s conscious /unconscious thoughts formations as confirmed in N. T. Luke 11:24-26
“”When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finding none, he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came. ‘ And when he comes, he finds it swept and put in order. Then he goes and takes with him, seven other spirits more wicked than himse...
“”When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finding none, he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came. ‘ And when he comes, he finds it swept and put in order. Then he goes and takes with him, seven other spirits more wicked than himself and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. (Luke 11:24-26)””
Reply 1: With sincere observation and introspection one can develop the ability become aware of this fact which Luke 11:24-26 points to and begin to dis-energize these negative thought forms and then,, by the use of awareness…. to stop forming negative forms but rather chose to form positive / Life Affirming though forms (e.g. Gratitude ) which, by the same principle, return 7 fold goodness to the creator.
This “teaches” that when one creates positive thought forms …gratitude etc …they return giving Health and well being to all the bodies, both dis-energizing previously created pain and suffering caused by creating negative thought forms and implanting Loving ones.
Question 2: How can I learn from it, and let it go?
Reply 2: By DOING the above suggestion the “letting go” will occur automatically !!!
This is confirmed clearly in the words of a Great Master …
‘Dear ones, beware of the desires, the emotions, and the thoughts you allow your person ality to harbor. Beware of all that you are subconsciously creating. For these elementals, emotion-forms and thought-forms, are living human-in-nature angels and human-in-nature demons.’
What makes my heart sing?
Any effort which attempts to Awaken Humankind to their True potential as Gods. As it is stated in [Psalm 82:6] “You are gods. all all of you are sons of the Most High.”
It is about time humanity starts to understand those words.
Any genuine effort, it may be as simple as holding open a physical door for another person or more ambitious …such as offering programs with the intention of open “Other” doorway and clearin...
Any genuine effort, it may be as simple as holding open a physical door for another person or more ambitious …such as offering programs with the intention of open “Other” doorway and clearing “fixed mind” ideas which block the Light of Consciousness.
But I only mention programs and / or Organizations which do this work for NON-monitatry gains.
this is a current example …………….
Dear friends of Eckhart Tolle,
If you’re struggling to have respectful conversations or to feel a sense of oneness and connection with others in these divisive times we’re living in, you’re not alone.
Passionately opposing points of view on women’s rights, gay marriage, immigration, human rights, family values, foreign relations, politics, and religion (just to name a few) are driving wedges and creating conflicts between strangers, friends, and family members with surprising frequency.
That’s why Eckhart has teamed up with world-renowned expert and pioneer in mind-body health, Deepak Chopra, MD, to host Awakening from the Illusion of Separateness: Spiritual Truths to Help Heal a Divided World.
It’s an all-new, world-premiere, online event to help you see how you can use the discord in your life and in the world to cross the chasms between us and ultimately to discover a greater sense of peace, empowerment, and connection.
And you’re invited (at no charge)!
Please join us for a remarkably rare opportunity to hear two of the greatest spiritual masters of our time reveal the simple shifts anyone can make to find and sustain a deeply authentic sense of peace and connection in our increasingly divided world.
Get free access to Awakening from the Illusion of Separateness: Spiritual Truths to Help Heal a Divided World now.
Warmly, Your friends at Eckhart Teachings
P.S. It all happens on Wednesday, September 20 at three convenient times. Mark your calendar and be sure to share this invitation with the people you care about most!
The word “Mindful-ness” is so over used in Western lingo has lost meaning …it would helpful to express it as Spiritful-ness because “Spirit is LIFE”, and living in a “Spiritful-ness” would confirm “Spirit is LIFE” no matter what activity the “mind” is engaged in.
Applying that simple truth to todays question…..
What lessons can I learn from mindfulness?
Reply: “Spirit is LIFE” again and again and again…on and on with out end ….
How...
How can I practice mindfulness today?
Reply: Just by breathing deeply, always Gratefully, and knowing that Spirit (Life) is recharged with every breath taken. And also by continually answering the question behind the words of Sufi Kabir, as quoted by Br David…..
“If you don’t break your ropes while you’re alive do you think ghosts will do it after?”
How am I inspired to serve?
As it is explained in the words of Joshua Emanuel in the N. Testament………….”Be ready” ….ready to serve the Divine Plan, that is the purpose of Be-ing Human.
This advice to Grace Cooke was transmitted to her by one she knew as ‘White Eagle’. This quote is from “The Quite Mind”
“THE MASTER’S SERVICE You may be used at any moment for the Master’s service, but because...
“THE MASTER’S SERVICE You may be used at any moment for the Master’s service, but because the call to service is not al¬ways what you were expecting, sometimes you do not realize that you have been called and chosen for the Master’s work. Make ready in your hearts, for you know not the day nor the hour when the Master will come.”
THE MASTER’S SERVICE You may be used at any moment for the Master’s service, but because the call to service is not al¬ways what you were expecting, sometimes you do not realize that you have been called and chosen for the Master’s work. Make ready in your hearts, for you know not the day nor the hour when the Master will come.
Question of the Day “What one thing am I able to do that will make a difference for our planet today?”
Reply: I would prefer to reply ……many things within one all encompassing state….and that state is “Self realization”
This is gracefully eluded to in the words transmitted to Grace Cooke by While Eagle in a publication “The Quiet Mind”
If you can think of yourself as being all that you know you should be: constant, g...
If you can think of yourself as being all that you know you should be: constant, gentle, loving and kind to every man, woman and child, and to every circumstance in life; kind and tolerant in your attitude towards all conditions on earth; above all, if you can conceive yourself as being completely calm in all conditions and circumstances, quiet and yet strong—strong to aid your weaker brethren, strong to speak the right word, to take the right action, and so become a tower of strength and light; if you can see yourself facing injustice and unkindness with a serene spirit, knowing that all things work out in time for good, and that justice is always eventually triumphant; if you have patience to await the process of the outworking of the will of God: if you can picture becoming like this, you will know something of mastership….’
White Eagle speaks, not from a remote height, but as one who himself trod this way when on earth, through many, many lives. He speaks with authority, but with real and tender love and understanding; often with humour, always constructively, never critically. If we can follow where he leads, each one of us can at least find strength and comfort in tribulation. At most, we shall find perfect happiness.
The Question was: “How can I respond to a current challenge utilizing the wisdom and abilities of my “higher self?”
My first response was ………..What?
This questions lead right into the ENORMOUS ERROR which current Religion(s ) and New Age Philosophies propagate. Which is, that one’s “BE-ing-ness” is made up of a divided Self! They speak of, “Lower/higher”, “lesser/Greater”, “self/Self ……...
This questions lead right into the ENORMOUS ERROR which current Religion(s ) and New Age Philosophies propagate. Which is, that one’s “BE-ing-ness” is made up of a divided Self! They speak of, “Lower/higher”, “lesser/Greater”, “self/Self ……etc etc
BUT there is and only ever will be, ONE Self! Any other method of understanding only allows egoism to continue to rule over any potential realization of “I AM I, therefore, I AM”. Creative wisdom hasn’t a chance while this mentality persists!
This cannot be emphasized strongly enough. The current -“divided self”- intellectual mind traps set by well meaning Authors/Teachers is just too much. ( Just read the current Blog “Power of Being” and try and sort out what Phd Lipton is trying to say. )
So I am certainly not going to fall for the error in to-days question , But, I will contribute a few words spoken by a true Christian mystic while address a stubborn minded group of western trained Buddhists. They are simple word which point to the important, “How to just “realize” the place of stillness / wisdom already in each of us, and stop the struggling,’ IOW “Realize one’s own depth”.
Start Quote
“So, again, let’s use this kind of visualization, that you are on the surface ( day to day unconsciousness) and suddenly your attention moves from sense perceptions and from thoughts to a deeper place.
And that is easily done when you allow thought activities to subside and the consciousness that usually would have been absorbed by thinking it suddenly free to realize its own depth.
You become still and as you become still you become aware of your own depth, when I say that, it sounds dualistic but this is only because we’re using language., you become aware of your own depth, really, there are not two here, the depth that you are is becoming aware of itself. And that is what we call “Self – realization”.”
End Quote ( Daskalos, Cyprus 1992)
What are some experiences that have shaped my spiritual life?
Direct experiences, starting from early age, with the self eliminated pure white light of Spirit. And also, further into adulthood, the non-reflected Golden light of Christ – Logos. These experiences were prof positive that the Soul is always in a state of worship and reverence…no matter how distracted the temporary personality becomes within its own attempts at self survival.
It is as Meister Eckhart has said, �...
It is as Meister Eckhart has said, “God is not found in the Soul by adding anything but [rather] by a process of subtraction,”
What is my wish for the world?
That Humankind learn the fact behind the point which His Holiness the Dalai Lama has made. His said, “If Mankind fully understood the principles of Karma then there would be no need for any Penal System of any kind.”
What he was pointing to is…if Humankind would learn to clear their Sub-consciousness minds of hate, malaise, greed, envy etc etc , there would be no aggression. Balance would exist between Soul-Self and Personality-self….not ...
What he was pointing to is…if Humankind would learn to clear their Sub-consciousness minds of hate, malaise, greed, envy etc etc , there would be no aggression. Balance would exist between Soul-Self and Personality-self….not “Peace” as Western Mentality wishes for because he knows that peace has an opposite ….it is called “stagnation”. And stagnation leads to sloth and then hate, malaise, greed, envy etc etc can creep back in again.
He is supporting the wisdom of Joshua Emanuel the Christ who reminds us “stay alert” and St Paul’s warning, “don’t let the light/flame of your Spirit grow dimmer”
In what ways can I “pay kindness forward?”
I see/hear/feel this “pay kindness” idea promoted in Western Culture as another attempt to turn “Love”( in all its qualities), into another “commodity” to be used for barter and trade! It is but another “good intention” idea which does nothing but promote lack of clarity.
Has the Western mind become so ridged that is can’t detect that…. ‘Love Grows’ ?
Meaning, it is the very nature of Love to give back...
Meaning, it is the very nature of Love to give back to the giver, 7 times the original giving. Sufis call it “Accumulative Effect of Loving”.
There absolutely no need to think there is a “debt to be payed” , or “obligation to react” because one was on the receiving end of a kindness action. This mentality comes vey close to “shaming” and “Moral Grandstanding”when looked at from a safe distance!
And of course the giving of ‘not-loving’ action have to follow the same principles. As an example, A country that gives lessons to other countries by bombing them, attacking them etc, will be receiving back seven times back. It is Divine Laws “cause and effect” principle. This is the principle of what the East calls “Karma” when understood correctly.
Trevor…well I could have used a lot less words ( the therefore power running the grid) if I had just quoted a Christian Mystic …
“As a present-day-personality you live ON this earth. But as a Spirit-Soul-Self the earth lives IN you.” Daskalos

He is reminding us we Humans are, and always will be, “Dual in One” ( not Double, Dual ) and as Tolle is famous for saying, “Even the Sun will Die”. So when that occurs we will have to re-create it as a Physical form, in full cooperation and coordination with our Brothers the Archangels of the Elements. Simple very Simple.

As the Essenes know it and convey it…Everything in manifest existence is created/therefore still connect to/ the one radiating source …the Luminous / Pure / colourless/ Non-reflected / Noetic light.

.these latter two being are the worlds of existence THERE in existence after the so-called “Passing-over”, out of the material world realm.
With the practice of Observation and Contemplation these Higher worlds can be experience while still in the material “body” realm and so are NOT as “foreign and even unbelievable.” as religions and most spiritual teaches want to “believe”.

OK I will return with a Kindness suggestion…an exercise to help with clearing and calming the outer ….a Balancing Exercise…to promote Self-compassion. ( Note that this utilizes the ability of “Visualization” extensively. If you have not had a lot of practice in visualization yet…don’t worry about it ….just do what comes naturally/comfortably.. Remember you have your own Guardian Archangel watching and working along with you …but you have to provide the sincerity. ( Also keep in mind the Sufi axiom “Visualization is Indeed Heaven! ) That sincerity will keep you perfectly safe at all time.
Meditation (A balancing type meditation)
As you know, we receive etheric vitality through breathing, resting, sunlight, food, water and sleeping. But we also can receive it directly from etheric vitality itself. We know we can consciously draw the vitality to us, shape and color it through visualization in our meditation. We can increase our supply of this etheric energy anytime we want with this exercise.
In this meditation we will use this etheric vitality to harmonize and balance the body of our thoughts, the body of our emotions and our material body. This exercise can be done as much and you want, in the morning or at night.
It is only necessary do it for 5 to ten minutes at a time. Longer is not better in this case.
OK, close your eyes now. Relax completely. Feel your whole material body.
Have love and respect for your body …it is a gift from the Holy Spirit.
Feel and see the luminous etheric double of your entire body. See it shine in and around your material body … it is LIFE. Now concentrate and feel your toes.
Feel that you are there in your toes.
Breathe deeply but comfortably and move your attention from the toes slowly up to your knees.
Now you are fully concentrated in your knees. Continue to move from your knees up to your solar plexus.
Breathe deeply and concentrate in your whole solar plexus area. Breathe in and see misty sky-blue light radiate from within your solar plexus and expand throughout your whole body. Now move your attention up to your chest area and feel being in your chest.
See a beautiful rosy light radiating from your chest.
Silence all emotions and all desires …you feel only Love in your heart.
Love life Love yourself. Loving yourself is Loving Life.
Love all human beings, especially those who think they are your enemy.
Now consciously expand this luminous rosy light radiating from your heart and spread it over the entire planet.
Earth is your temporary home; See it covered in rosy¬ white light. Now move up to your head and see a brilliant golden sun within and around your head. Clear all distracting and unnecessary thoughts from your mind.
Have only creative thoughts in your mind.
The etheric double of your whole material body is shining and radiating white light.
Take one more deep breath and fill your chest with the air and the etheric vitality, and then slowly, slowly exhale.
As you gently release the air from your lungs, keep your attention on the etheric vitality gathered in your chest and retain this energy inside you.
Now feel this …..Life giving energy….. spread throughout your whole body.
Feel and see your body fully saturated with the luminous white light of the etheric vitality and give thanks.
END at 10 minutes (plus/minus)
Thank You Gina 🙂 You are a bright light here and in Br Davis’s eye, I am sure of that! Yes a pond of muddy water and/or disturbed surface cannot reflect the beauty …only a Clear and Calm heart and mind will do this.
I can only add to your response to this question of the day “Who is waiting for me to be kind?”
My contribution: …….Those who think I am their enemy…

.because…although they may not think so on the surface of their particular “pond” [temporary personality] ….their deep and permanent “Inner-Self” is indeed THERE and eagerly waiting and ready to emanate its Natural Loving/Kindness/Goodness anyway it care. And it is only when there is a TRUE state of “Clear/Calm Heart and Open Mind” that this quality of the Inner-Self can be see in others …no matter what the others “outer behaviour” might be.
This fact of our BE-ing-ness is so important in to-days world it must be recognized at every opportunity! Thanks again!
