The angels gave me a bright and early wake up call this
morning. I am house-sitting for my 82 year old friend who is off on a cruise
down the Amazon River. How's that for keeping active in your elder years?
Well, I stepped out of her shower onto her marble floor,
slipped, and fell, hitting my right hip on the way down, landing on my right
elbow, and the back of my lower head hit the edge of the marble shower. Ouch. I
felt every blow! My elbow hurt the worst, so right away my attention went
there. Have you ever noticed that your attention always goes to the place that
hurts the most? This is true of both emotional and physical pain.
I was shocked and stunned. I waited to see if I was still
alive and if I could get up. Obviously I am okay, since I am here writing this.
My elbow still throbs. I have a big bruise on my hip. The back of my head is
sore. But no broken bones. My arm still moves. What a blessing that is.
I felt it like a shock, like a great message from the
angels...stay awake! Be aware! Be alert! Because there was no real reason I had
to fall. We are always warned about people falling in showers...and as I lay
there, I thought, oh yes, this is what they mean!
The universe is always giving us messages to stay
awake...maybe not messages this big, but messages just the same. Why? Because
the universe loves us. Angels want us to be safe and happy. But they cannot lay
out the rug so that we step on it. Life can be over in a minute...my life could
have ended that moment...the body is not meant to make such hard contact with
hard marble. Bones are meant for feather beds, not marble floors!
And so I am passing this lesson and this message onto you,
dear students, because I love you so much. Because the angels love you so much.
Take care in each moment of your life. Be careful...that is, full of care for
your precious being. As I lay on the floor in pain, but obviously not seriously
injured...what I felt was this great love. I felt protected. Any maybe I was. I
felt this great shock, which was like love going through me, saying, be
careful, listen, stay awake, stay aware, wake up! Wake up entirely! Wake up
from the sleep of the world! Wake up now! NOW! Wake up NOW! And stay awake!
It may seem strange to say that such a moment could bring so
much love, but it did. It brought love and it brought me an important message. And now I
pass this message onto you, dear students! Be careful, listen, stay awake, stay
aware, wake up! Wake up entirely! Wake up from the sleep of the world! Wake up
now! NOW! Wake up NOW! And stay awake!
Messages are always coming to us from many sources. We must
only listen. We must be receptive. We must know that those messages are meant
for us and not someone else.
I am SO happy you were not seriously harmed!! Thank you for sharing this important message!

Hello Gentle Spirit. Your picture looks gentle and healing, and I agree it is an important message, that we all have only so long on this earth to wake up and come to our senses. Life can be over a minute. And so we must make the best use of our time here to grow and evolve spiritually into who we really are. I am so grateful for this message and that we have a teacher humble enough to share her falls as well as her rises, smile. I so appreciate also learning to turn everything into a lesson. The angels use every opportunity to bring us messages of light and truth. Yes, wake up!

Dear Teacher,
ReplyDeletewell, I fell off my bike the other day because I wasn't paying attention. Wasn't really hurt, a skinned knee and a bruise on my ankle, but otherwise, fine.
Funny thing is, I thought of this little lesson of yours as I was falling. I told myself to stay aware, even though the fall was out of my control. This all happened in a split second, but it happened.
Yes, these lessons really are penetrating me at deep levels. I read them every day. Somehow I am greatly anticipating my next lesson!
In case I don't get on here again before you leave, dear Indira, I want to wish you a great time in Europe, as well as all the students who are lucky enough to take part in your seminars there. I, myself, will want a reading with you, when you get back!
