Email to client...

Dear Students, Today I am posting an email I sent to one of my female clients, who has just separated from her husband. I have changed identifying information, to respect confidentiality. I think by reading it, you can learn a great deal. I have kept the words to her soft, so they can be heard. She is not a student, so she does not have the same level of understanding that students achieve over time, but she is a very long term client. Here is the email:

Dearest -----

You have made the physical separation from your husband, now you must make the psychological separation, which can only happen inside you. For so long you have defined yourself in relation to your husband. Over time, that became a definition that was painful to you, and you sought to remove yourself from that pain.

Stay clear that the ego will seek to continue to keep you in pain. That is what ego does. Ego is a pain machine.

Watch the issues of boundaries. Instead of constantly saying that he is overstepping your boundaries, simply, clearly state what you want. To yourself. To him. I’d just leave out the word boundaries, if you can.

Boundaries can be an offensive and defensive word. You needed to use it when you were making your move and getting stronger. Now you can just be an adult and clearly state - "This is what I want. This is what I choose. This is what I am doing. I do not want that. I do not choose that. Not right now, please. Maybe later. NO. Yes."

These are all good statements for you to consider.  You can just say, no. You can say, not now. You can say, no, thank you. You can say, I don’t want to. You can say, Can you please tell me what you mean, because I don’t understand. You can say, yes. You can say, I need time to think about that. You can say, I can’t answer that right now. You can say, I am feeling uncomfortable and need to be with my own energy right now, so I can deal with my feelings.

These are good “I” statements. You will find your own, the more you turn within.

“I” statements will help you go within to find out what you are feeling and thinking. “I” statements tend to be less combative, less offensive, less defensive, less confusing.

Keep in mind, you both love your children. So far your husband has been supportive of your move, providing  for you financially. Do your best to stay with what is, not go into fear. Fear is the greatest weapon of control. Don’t forget that.

People say all kinds of things when they feel attacked and afraid. Do your best not to give power to what people say when they are feeling defensive, afraid, attacked. Try to just see. Really see. Do your best not to react.

Right now, today, everything is okay. Now you have a chance to look at the pain that is within you. When your husband was always there, it was easy to see that your pain was caused by your interaction with him. When he is not there, you have the beautiful opportunity to advance spiritually by taking full responsibility for your own pain — seeing it.

As the angels say, “what you are not aware of controls you. When you become aware of something, it begins to lose control over you.”

The problem is where the pain is. This is a universal truth.

This is a beautiful time for you, an opportunity for expansion and freedom.

I trust that you and your husband will be able to work everything out in a way that serves both of you and your family. Old patterns are being broken. Ego will resist that. Be patient, loving, and kind with yourselves and each other as you work to overcome the feelings of fear, pain, and limitation. You can do it! There is no enemy.

What is beautiful to remember is that even as human beings fight against each other, each of you has an angel who holds you in the light. Angels always work together. When you can attune to your angel, you are attuning to the angel of everyone. This is because angels serve only God’s will, and so angels exist in harmony, even while we exist in conflict.

Love,
Indira

Fructose & your health

Fructose-containing sugars cause weight gain not only because of the calories they contain, but by triggering your "fat switch." They tell your body it's time to store fat, just as if you were an animal preparing for hibernation. By avoiding fructose and "turning off" your fat switch, you can help prevent or treat obesity. Fructose is not a healthy alternative to sugar, so do your best to avoid it.

MAY MORNING MESSAGE

Hopefully, you have begun to read your newest lessons. The very first class is now on Lesson 55. That's a lot of reading for those of you who have stayed the course. And a lot of writing. Not so many of you write here in Your Open Classroom, though many of you write to me personally and I always answer, though it takes me some time. We receive so much from the angelic realm that we are unaware of, and often ungrateful for. There is so much light that comes your way. Each day I hold the light for you that flows to me from the angels. There is not one day that goes by that I do not think of each of you personally, and direct energy and good thoughts your way.

Your cost for what you receive here is very small, and I have never raised the price, and do not earn a lot of money from angel work. I want as many people as possible to have the opportunity to be exposed to these lessons. Some students have dropped out of school, even though there pictures still appear here, since I don't know how to take them away. That's okay.

Most people are just not ready for the level of commitment that is necessary to evolve in this school. Most people want the easy way--not the clear and simple way. That is, the ego wants the easy way; the way that is easy for the ego is never easy for the heart. It is not the way that completes the soul.

Let's talk about soul completion for a moment. Have you ever heard that phrase? I doubt it, because I never wrote it before, and I have never seen it written anywhere. So are you ready for some deep esoteric Truths?

There is little understanding of what the soul is. Have you ever thought about what the soul is? The spiritual journey is a journey to soul completion, to wholeness, holiness. Holiness, as we speak of it here, (try looking holy up in your dictionary. Such beautiful words describe it!)--holiness is complete and absolute identification with your True Self, living in complete service to the Most High -- as angels do.

Speaking of angels, there was once a time when the angels were greatly tested. Some were tossed from the Kingdom of God, and now serve darkness. These were never true angels. The true angels were separated from the dark angels during this war against God. This left the true angels. That is a story for another time. All stories come in their own time.

Angels were greatly tested, even as Jesus was tested, even as the Buddha was tested, when he was given all the sensuous pleasures of the earth, and chose in the end, Truth, even as you are tested. The kingdom of God has never come easy to anyone. So when you feel the need to cry and complain about how long it takes for you to understand, how hard your life is, please remember that the greatest enlightened beings that ever lived -- or live -- have gone through very hard tests. Why should it be different for me or you? Aren't you looking for the greatest treasure? If even the angels, even Jesus, even Buddha, even every enlightened being, is tested, should it be different for you? Isn't it worth all your effort?

Only EGO wants it to be different. Only ego demands everything be given it, without it having to do the work. Only ego complains and makes your life miserable. The ego is what you call you, and it isn't you! It is an impostor. A fake. A parasite. Ego is darkness.

Those of you who put Truth first, who show up for your lessons, are making the most progress. I know this is so because I see it in you. I feel it. Your spiritual evolution depends on where you choose to focus your energy.

But...we were talking about the soul, weren't we. About soul completion. This is a fascinating subject. I will write more about it, either in a future lesson (which means past #55) or here in Your Open Classroom. We shall see. For now, keep showing up. Really show up. Show up as much as I do. I show up as your classmate and as your teacher. The more you show up, the more amazing your spiritual life will become. Forget about what your classmates or other people are doing. You are not here to row someone else's boat. You are here to row your boat! You are here for your soul completion. More about soul completion and the battle of the dark angels against God -- in the 'future' that will be our present by the time we get there. Smile.
