The good news is you do not have to have courage. The false self has no courage. It has nothing of its own, not even itself. The false self is like a mirage on the desert. How can a mirage claim that it has anything? The mirage claims it is an oasis; but it is nothing.

We are all walking across the desert towards a mirage that doesn’t exist. Aren’t you tired of being alone on the desert?

The angels whisper to you, Give up. Surrender. Stop. Fall to your knees. Tell yourself the truth. See through the lies you tell yourself.

Stop pretending you have courage. Stop pretending you are not afraid. Be as afraid as you are. Fear not the fear! Fear has no power over you. Fear has no power! Be as afraid as you are. The false self is afraid that you will see it is not real. That you will see through it.

See through it! See through the mirage. The false self is not an oasis. It is a mere mirage. It doesn’t exist. The false self is trembling even now, even as you read these words. The false self does not want you to know the truth. It does not want you to know Truth!

Truth does not require that you have courage. Truth has all the courage you need. Truth is the Oasis you seek.

WHALE DREAM

Last night I had the most beautiful dream. It was so real and vivid that it is still with me, all the colors, scents, and feelings, like a beautiful vision. I was in the center of the ocean. The colors are still with me, so bright, turquoise blue and green. The whales swam to me, to greet me, very close, to where I was sitting on a small island, just big enough for me. A huge black glistening whale swam near me, so close I could have reached out to touch him. He had so much power, I was in awe and a bit of trepidation, but he was gentle. Then there were turquoise green whales. So many kinds of whales. The whales could speak to me. They came with a message. They wanted humans to stop harming the ocean and their home.

This experience reminds me of this angel writing I once did: "The angels of oceans are great devas, serene and tranquil. The love to chant the name of God. They know the language of all sea animals and fish. These angels possess such stillness of heart that you can hear it if you go to the ocean and listen carefully. The angels of the ocean have a deeply intuitive relationship with whales, dolphins, manatees, octopi and all conscious sea life. Intelligent sea creatures experience the presence of angels in a way that humanity is vastly unaware of. When human beings savage the oceans, the angels draw even closer to the great sea animals and do their best to comfort them and calm the fish and fauna that inhabit the ocean."

Spring Mini-Retreat in Southern California

VISIONS & RELATIONSHIPS MINI-RETREAT

April 13, Sunday 1--6pm $68

Altadena, CA

SPRING INTO SPRING!

You have visions that are yours alone, and so does everyone else. How do you work towards your visions without becoming distracted or annoyed by the people around you, who are also working towards their visions? Working harmoniously with others requires clear communication. It means allowing a higher light to guide you, instead of ego. This is the focus of this afternoon retreat!

Immerse yourself in deep intuitive readings, group work, meditations, fun, and laughter to support your highest visions and right relationship with others and all of life. With less drama, you have more time and energy for your most spiritually inspired visions and happy healthy relationships at home, at work, with friends and family.

Thank God and angels that at least these two amazing beings were saved.

Here is a photo of the man helping to save the 2nd whale.

Violet Light

When I read your daily message about violets, Judy Indira -- I was reminded that the Crown Chakra -- the Sahasra -- is violet. I am anticipating our new lesson March 8, by the way. The last lesson has been so valuable to me. Thanks again for your great service, teacher dear! And here are the other violets I think you were talking about -- with the green heart-shaped leaves.

One of my favourite spring recipes........

Put a handful of violet flowers (Viola odorata)
into a small glass with white sugar and let them dry. Grind the sugar-flower mixture with a motar.
You can use this seasoning to sweeten your desserts

NOTICE YOUR REACTIONS!

Be a scientist of your own self. Dispassionately observe your reactions. In this way you come to understand yourself. When a scientist mixes certain chemicals together, the scientist cannot create a reaction that is not inherent in the chemicals. The scientist can observe the reactions of one chemical with another and thereby learn something. Be like a scientist. Notice your reactions. Learn from what you observe.

Buddha said . . .

“You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”

You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.

Poem To Myself

When in doubt
Be kind
I can be firm and still be kind
I can be honest and still be kind
I can tend the little seeds of kindness within me
I can shine sunshine when the world seems dark
So the tiny seeds of kindness within me
Are not afraid to grow
Right up to where my smile lives
I can close my eyes
And breathe kindness in
I can let kindness fill me
There is no benevolent reason
For meeting hostility with hostility
No kind reason for perpetuating little wars
God knows there's more than enough war
Out there already.
