Journey to Light

What is time? Is it like a living tree that we can see, touch, nurture, and actually experience in a tangible way? Where is time? Can we actually go to a store of spent time and say “here is that time” and interact with it, like taking a book out of a library? If we could do these things with time, how would it change our relationship with it? Honestly, I think we humans take time for granted. It’s just something that happens, with or without us, and most of us couldn’t be bothered to consciously pay any attention to it. We’re in it without understanding our impact on it, and even its impact on us.   We only become conscious of time when we wish we could direct it (the future) or change it (the past). In my opinion this is sad: our awareness of time becomes nothing more than a flurry of wishes and regrets. Wishing for a better, brighter future or past is unrealistic – wishes are nothing but empty fantasies. If we want a better future and past, we have to stop wishing and, instead, ...

Have you ever seen the Loch Ness monster? I have not; even when I was on the shores of the loch over the course of several days. I also stood in the waters lapping on the stony shores of that massive lake, and I kept watch with a keen eye. Nothing! Somehow I still believe that the Loch Ness monster exists or has existed, and has been seen by people over the ages. Does the fact that I have never seen the “monster” categorically conclude that the monster does not exist? No. The experience related above is exactly the same for all of us when it comes to questions about our spirituality and about the existence of the ONE true God. No living being has ever seen God and this, for many, is sufficient proof for the non-existence of God. We work on the assumption that “if I cannot see it, it is not real and therefore does not exist”. This is a shortcoming of the human “empirical principle” which states that evidence for the existence of something is based on, concerned with, or verifiable by ob...

Transcend this fallen material world to enter and remain within the light of the One true God. I consistently write this, but something is lacking. I make it sound like it’s an easy thing to do, but it’s not. What’s lacking is the “how” – how do we transcend this fallen world; how do we find and remain within God’s light? While I dislike the popular culture attitude of “change anything in your life in X-many easy steps”, there is some merit to summarising actions into a limited number of steps to enable people to digest complex things. So here’s an approach for transcendent living in five steps (and, by the way, they’re not easy): 1. Recognise you as soul 2. Maintain permanent consciousness of you as soul 3. Re-connect to the Holy Spirit given to you by God 4. By your thoughts, feelings, and actions, live the will of God 5. Despite challenges stay strong in your spiritual consciousness  Over time, more of us have fallen prey to the ideal of material individualism, which i...

As it’s Easter Sunday I think it appropriate to reflect on resurrection. This is important for all spiritual people, not just Christians. For those who do not know what resurrection is, it typically refers to the rising back to life of Jesus Christ after he died from crucifixion. Why is this significant? Because it demonstrates that physical death of the human body is not a permanent end to life. The example provided by Jesus shows that the soul survives death of the human body and, in exceptional circumstances, the uncorrupted soul can return to the deceased body and revive that body to full life. The uncorrupted soul is that which remains in the light of God’s Holy Spirit despite having to live in a corruptible human body. It is the soul that retains consciousness of its soul nature as ultimately created by the One true God. It is the energy that drives us (particularly during the living years in our human bodies) to be the will of God. I believe this is what Jesus was telling us whe...

There is a chapter about reincarnation in my book “Transcendence”. Typically people of the Christian religious faith do not believe in reincarnation, primarily because the Church does not teach it and, in reality, the Church has suppressed information on the topic. But why would the Christian Church do that? My opinion is that the topic of reincarnation overturns Church dogma which hides that reincarnation is enabled by the fallen masters who created humans. If reincarnation was laid open it would expose what the Church has been trying to hide for thousands of years: humans are not creations of the ONE true God, but instead are creations – in the image and likeness – of the fallen angels. I define reincarnation as the return of the soul to earth in a new human body, different and separate from the original body that the soul was first embodied in. In effect the flesh body is an earthly prison for the “spiritually unconscious” soul.  I believe the soul can reincarnate multiple times...
