Healing Tones

“Getting used to God’s love is a delightful experience.“

WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT? I cannot think of anything more important than love. Without love there is really no reason to live. None at all. Love is an irresistible force that draws us into oneness with what we love. What do you love most? Your spouse? Your children? Your career or job? Perhaps your new car? You become that which you love, and that which you love becomes you. It’s simply the nature and power of love. Love cannot be resisted. Try to resist love and you will fail every time.

“WHERE LOVE REIGNS SUPREME”

I received a blog post from Great Cosmic Story this week — as perhaps you may have as well. In this post my dear friend, David Barnes, shares a consideration on the topic of love given by Lloyd A. Meeker (Uranda) back in 1952 entitled “Where Love Reigns Supreme.” His words touched me deeply, in that “secret place” where love for our Lord and King reigns supreme in the heart.

I wish to share an excerpt from Uranda’s consideration in this post, mostly because it is the most important thing I could ever write about and share. I’ll start toward the beginning.

I always feel at a loss for words when I approach the subject of God’s love, the love of the Lord of Love. Our KING so loved the world, the earth and the people in it, His whole creation, that He came into the world to restore that pattern of relatedness, that whosoever believeth in Him, the Lord of Love, might not perish but have everlasting life. What does it mean to believe in the Lord of Love? What is there in your consciousness tonight which will allow you to have a deeper awareness of what it means to believe in the Lord of Love?

What if every question, if every problem, all the things which might be deemed a necessity in any way, shape or form, could be dismissed from consciousness so that the whole attention, the whole of the heart or feeling nature, the whole of the mind and the whole of the body, might be brought to point in this one thing?

When there is love on earth, for instance, between a man and a woman, and it is real and it has a spiritual quality, it has a depth, the mutuality of that love establishes a timelessness. When there is a centering in relationship to that love, other things, though they be essential, are seen as secondary to love, no matter how important they might be, no matter how necessary it may be to do the essential work or consider other matters. It is not that they are set aside as meaningless, but the quality of that which is known and felt, the timelessness, and the recognition that that love is primary, gives meaning to everything else. Without that love what meaning would there be? Without love somewhere, somehow—not necessarily limited to marital love—but without love somehow, no human being can live a normal life. Without love there is only emptiness, coldness, meaninglessness. Whatever else there may be, only love can give it meaning. Whatever the need may be, only love can provide the starting point for filling that need. No matter what problem, without love there is no way of really solving the problem, no matter how much the human being may try. The basic pattern of love open to each and every one, without regard to anything else, is the most precious of all, the most priceless of all aspects of love: the love of God, the love of the Lord of Love.

When that love begins to work in and through the human being, and it is held sacred, the human consciousness and heart remain true to it, changes begin to take place. All changes are fundamentally adjustments either to the pattern of life or to the pattern of decay. Sometimes the human being resists the necessity of adjustment, but without adjustment the true expression of love is impossible, because the means of manifestation must become fitting to the expression of love. The endlessness of love is that which makes eternity desirable. Without love one could rightly abhor the thought of eternity. But love is of sufficient importance so that from God’s standpoint the centering of all things, including God Himself, is established in love. Our KING, Supreme in heaven and earth, is the Lord of Love, the Apex of All. Love, then, is of sufficient importance so that from the standpoint of God’s design, of expression in His own Being, disregarding the human being for the moment, in the Body of God made up of many God Beings the One who provides the apex is the Lord of Love. Not the Lord of Truth, not the Lord of Life, not the Lord of something else in the various aspects of God’s Being, but the Lord of Love. He is the Center, the Supreme One, the Apex.

From the standpoint of God, then, in relationship to God Himself, Love is Supreme. To that end we have the second shortest verse in the Bible. The shortest one was caused because someone failed to recognize the truth of the second shortest. The shortest verse in the Bible has two words; the second, three: the simple statement, “God is love.” The shortest verse in the Bible: “Jesus wept.” Why did He weep? Not for the cause that human beings suppose. Not because Lazarus was in the tomb, not because all the others were weeping. He told them plainly, even before He wept, “Lazarus is not dead, but sleepeth.” But when Mary of Bethany forgot to remember that God is love and that the power of God is supreme, when she betrayed the trust He had placed in her to hold the pattern, when Mary doubted God’s love, when Mary, who to the Master symbolized the centering of all the fulfilments for which He hoped on earth, yielded to the pattern of appearances and broke and became subject to the things to which the world is subject, then He wept; for in that moment He knew that what could have been would not be. He wept because there was not one, not even Mary of Bethany, who remembered “God is love,” who remembered the importance of staying centered regardless of appearances—not one, of those who should have provided the pattern in that hour. I feel the question rise in your mind with respect to the Disciple John. The pattern of which I am speaking had no direct relationship to him. I am not suggesting that John failed to maintain the pattern. I am talking about something else.

“Jesus wept.” Do you think the Master’s life was without love? No. Mary of Bethany was His sweetheart. Mary of Bethany provided the centering, from the standpoint of the negative aspect of Being, for that outworking for which He was on earth, for which He labored. That provision of God’s love we can say should have held—but Jesus wept. Why? Because the one whom He had trusted to hold the centering of the pattern in what we would speak of as the negative response of the world, to provide the key, forgot her responsibility. She forgot God’s love, and “Jesus wept.” Mary yielded to the wrong precedent. Since the fall there was no other precedent but that of failure; but there was a precedent going back beyond the fall of man, and God’s love had to have meaning on earth. There was a keynote of response in the outworking of things, a point where love reigned supreme, where nothing else mattered, and when something else was allowed to matter, Jesus wept.

So from the standpoint of God, from the standpoint of our LORD on earth, love was first. He said the first commandment had to do with love, God’s love: to love the Lord thy God with all that you are. When there is this yielding to God’s love, letting go in it, what happens? In the world there are crystallizations of every sort, distorted patterns wherever one may turn, nothing exactly the way God intended it to be. In the whole realm of humanity there is that which is moving toward that pattern of fulfilment, the Divine manifestation of the Divine Design, in the flesh of human beings, in their minds and hearts, but so often something other than God’s love matters first. “God is love.” The centering of God is love; the expression of God is love; the nature of God is love. If, then, the reality of love is allowed to begin to work through the human heart there is the beginning of the relatedness with God. But the working of that love must do something. It must melt the crystallizations. It must bring about a yielding which allows adjustment to the Divine pattern, so that the delicate factors of the Divine Design may begin to have meaning.

One of the strangest things to me—and, I might mention, to all the angels of heaven—is this: That human beings so often seem to imagine that the essential adjustments are difficult, something to be resisted, something to be avoided as much as possible, that there is somehow suffering in those adjustments. Such an attitude reveals a tremendous ignorance with respect to love and truth and life. One of the greatest joys which any man or woman may know is the joy of going through the patterns of attunement or adjustment necessary to the ever-increasing reality of love, God’s love, in life. Instead of resisting the necessities of change the human being should accept them willingly, gladly.

Why is eternity a reality? Fundamentally because of love. When one begins to know love as it centers in our KING, the Lord of Love, one begins to realize that even eternity can never exhaust the newness, the wonder, the joy of love. Love, true love, is something that never grows old. It is not subject to time. It is not subject to space or distance. It simply is, and it is eternally new. If there is anything which is not showing forth the quality of eternal newness it is because of a lack of love, a lack of centering in the God of Love, the Lord of Love.

How can the body be healed if there be no change in the body according to the Divine Design? It can’t. Only as changes come by reason of the control according to the Divine Design can healing come to the body. Only so can healing come to the mind or heart. These changes are not painful unless the human being makes them so. And if they are painful they are not the true changes; they are partial changes wherein factors other than God’s are allowed to play a part, where human factors are imposed. Getting used to God’s love is a delightful experience. Remaining true to God’s love gives a sense of wholeness and wholesomeness, a consciousness of something holy and sacred. There is such a sweet spirit which pervades, and all fear is cast out, and there is no cause for suffering in any real sense. There is relaxation. There is letting go. There is yielding. There is a response which permits God’s power to make changes. How deep does God’s love go? To the intellectual level, so that one may say, “I love God”? If so, the moment the attention is centered on the necessities of our daily lives God’s love is forgotten. But if it goes deep, deep into the heart, the feeling nature, and penetrates the body, it is there no matter what may demand attention, no matter what one may be under the necessity of doing. It is there all the time.

There is no adequate way to convey in words that which love is. It can be called a fire, and that would be true, but some would be afraid of it. It can be called a consuming fire; not because it destroys, but because it enfolds and contains, because it takes unto itself that which yields—to change, not to destroy it; not to bring it to an end, but to give it meaning. There are so many delicate factors in love, so very delicate, and only as there is an appreciation of delicate design, in truth, can the full beauties of love be known. . . .

“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14)

THERE WAS A SAYING when I was a youngster that when we die our souls ascend unto heaven where we are given a harp and a cloud upon which to sit and play heavenly music. As I matured and came into my field of service as a holistic healer and Attunement practitioner, that belief became a metaphor for the reality of the musical, or vibrational, nature of our incarnating human capacities, our “harps.” Our clouds are our spirit-generated pneumaplasmic fields. In season, and after much exploration, study and practice, I put together a workshop and compiled a manual to teach the art of what I came to call “Attunement With Sacred Sound ~ The magical use of sound in energy work and healing.” Here is the tone-setting piece in my manual . . . which eventually evolved into a book by the same name:

Setting the Tone

I believe in the very core of my soul that music is the essence of life.  For it can lift the heart to heaven’s gate and open this portal to love’s outpouring blessing.  And in the midst of that blessing we find our Self standing upright and beautiful, singing a magnificent world into being, where harmony, rhythm and melody blend together to create perfection and balance in every form… and especially in this human form that gives heart, mind, voice and flesh to God on Earth.  In these instruments we have the tools and the technology that connect heaven and earth and thereby bring the Music of the Spheres into this world to create all things new. This I believe passionately with every fiber of my being.

Here’s a partial listing of the topics I consider in my book:

PART I: THE PRINCIPLES OF ATTUNEMENT AND SACRED SOUND: Harmonics and the Golden Mean Ratio ~ Creating A Unified Sacred Sound Field ~ The Creative Dynamics of Light and Sound ~ Cell Replication in a Musical Matrix of Light ~ The Healing Elements of Sacred Sound

PART II: CREATING SACRED SOUND: Listening to the Silence ~ The Power of Voice and Breath ~ Language and Thought: Matrix of Creation ~ Energy Follows Thought ~ Clothing Spiritual Substance with Words ~ Exercises in Finding, Placing and Developing Your Voice ~ The Healing Aspects of Voice ~ Toning Sacred Vowel Sounds ~ The Power of Your Name ~ Toning to Resolve Dissonant Energy ~ Sacred Sound Instruments

PART III: ATTUNING THE CHAKRAS AND ENDOCRINE CENTERS: Opening Ritual Space ~ Attuning and Balancing Energy Anatomy ~ Grounding the Body’s Energy Field ~

PART IV: TONING MYSTICAL WORDS ~ Using Ancient Prayers and God Names ~ Mantras and Chants ~ Om — Matrix Of All Creation ~ The Healing Hum.

APPENDICES: Introduction to Attunement Technique ~ Steps of Ascent ~ The Elements of Music & Sound ~ The Aramaic Prayer of Jesus ~ Healing Yourself With Your Voice ~ The Music of Life ~ Cymatics ~ A Vision of Things to Come

I was honored and very pleased to have had Music Master PenDell Pittman, dear friend and Attunement colleague, write the Foreword of my book, which he entitled “Oneness with the Ocean of Motion.” Here’s an excerpt from his substantial contribution:

The book you now hold in your hands, Attunement with Sacred Sound, by fellow musician and Attunement practitioner, Dr. Anthony Palombo, provides a pivotal revelation about the phenomenal connection you and I have to the powerfully grand energies of all creation. The seeming platitude that states, “We are all one,” or “We are one with everything,” is quite true, in fact! Keep reading and you will discover more about just how profoundly this is the case.

Dr. Anthony Palombo (“Tony”) and I have known each other for almost 40 years. Never has there been a time, in my observation, when Tony has not exhibited a conscious attitude that consistently recognizes the connection between “heaven and earth” (the intangible and the tangible, if you will), a core kinship between all people, and the resonance that entrains throughout all of “creation”, with its infinite components. His is a noble stance and vision, to be sure, but why is it relevant to us now? Because, if we are to receive the full spectrum of learning, guidance, and inspiration from studying this book – a work that, I believe, largely distills (without coming close to fully biographing) Tony’s life’s work – we will find ourselves adopting that same outlook as he has – one filled with awe, wonder, discovery, and a sense of privilege to know and work in this precious, delicate, and, dare I say, sacred field. . . .

. . . . The practice of Attunement, as so ably and comprehensively introduced by Tony in this book, helps enrich the sacred resonance of our capacities with the Creator, while helping remove dissonance from the creative fields that penetrate and surround us. Whereas “sound therapy” alone uses the relatively slow-moving (though miraculous) realm of sound itself as the source of upliftment, the overall Attunement process engages a much wider (potentially infinite), higher-frequency spectrum of harmonics, one that encompasses the range of audible sound, plus so much more, while differentiating itself through countless, simultaneous Life processes. Sound healing, and any other process that is in resonance with Spirit, is a harmonious aspect of that Spirit substance, and therefore provides, at least to some extent, a resonant field for the energy and blessings of that Spirit.

Sound acts as a carrier wave of sorts for the Attunement current — toning and amplifying the emanations of the endocrine glands, relaxing and entraining the nervous systems, clearing the mind, soothing emotions, and helping one to release various resonances with external stresses. The playing of sustained sound also can be used by an experienced practitioner as an instrument to amplify his or her perceptions. As the sonic and “Spirit” ranges of energy entrain together during an Attunement session, their synergy — true to the Law of the Octave — also activates harmonics in all frequency ranges, from the infinitely high to the infinitely deep.

We are literally moving in harmonic resonance, in attunement, with all of Creation. We not only live in the “universal ocean of motion”, but we play radiantly conscious roles in the flow of its Currents, as we allow our every action to entrain with the infinitely high and deep Tones of the Creator. We are an integral part of the Cosmic Symphony, for sure. Let’s join Tony now, for an in-depth expose of just how integral we really are!

WORKSHOP DEMONSTRATION

IN THIS POST I will continue sharing from Sunreed Foundation of Sound Healing. This article from their website resonates with my own rationale and approach to sound healing as explored and published in my book ATTUNEMENT WITH SACRED SOUND. Sound, in my view and experience, when providing a carrier wave for the transmission of Spirit, is sacred. Let’s read what the team at Sunreed says about it.

“It’s not just about sound; it’s about how you meet the sound, hold space, and grow through it. This integration of sound and consciousness amplifies the depth, authenticity, and resonance of your practice, allowing true transformation to unfold, for yourself and those you serve.”

WHEN SOUND BECOMES A TRANSISSION OF THE SACRED

At the heart of sound, healing, and consciousness work lies something deeper than skill, deeper than knowledge … devotion.

This work, when truly alive, becomes more than a personal journey. It becomes a living offering, an act of service, of reverence, and of relationship. It is not just about healing ourselves or helping others. It is about aligning with something greater, something interconnected, something whole.

It is about placing our gifts, our growth, and our sound in service to the collective field of awakening and care.

Devotion is not about worshiping something outside ourselves. It’s about honoring the sacredness that flows through all things, in every vibration, every gesture, every breath.

To be devotional in your practice means to meet it with a quality of presence that says: This matters. I am here. I offer this not just for myself, but for the greater good.

Whether you are toning a single note or holding space for a group in ceremony, devotion lives in your intention, your humility, and your willingness to listen.

When you place your practice in service to something beyond the self, you enter into alignment with what many call Unity Consciousness, the living awareness that all things are connected, that healing for one is healing for all, and that your vibration contributes to the field of collective coherence.

This is not abstract. It is deeply felt. When you come into a space devoted to sacred sound and healing, you can feel the difference. Something opens. Something stabilizes. Something unites.

Devotion is the bridge that allows sound to move from being a “tool” to being a transmission of the sacred.

It is what allows your voice, your bowl, your drum, your silence to become a vehicle for something far more expansive than the self.

The more we enter into this work with devotion, the more every practice becomes a kind of prayer, not always in words, but in energy. The drumbeat becomes the heartbeat of the Earth. The tone of your voice becomes a vessel of clarity and compassion. The silence between sounds becomes a spacious field where healing can arise.

In this way, your sound is no longer yours alone. It becomes a shared act of rememberi

A ripple that contributes to the reweaving of a fractured world. A call back to wholeness.

Devotion is about being present, with your full self, in full awareness, in relationship to the whole. It’s about aligning your actions, your sound, your practice with your deepest values, your highest knowing, and your most sincere intentions.

It’s what sustains your path when inspiration wanes.

It’s what roots your practice when ego wants control. And it’s what calls forth the unseen allies, ancestral wisdom, and universal intelligence to support the work you’re doing.

To hold devotion is to contribute to the emergence of a new story, one that honors sound as sacred, that sees healing as collective, and that recognizes consciousness as a shared field we are all shaping together.

It means trusting that your voice, your presence, and your intention matter. That when you practice with devotion, you are adding coherence to the whole. You are calling forth a deeper truth. You are saying yes to a world where healing is not only possible, it’s happening, here and now, through each of us.

In the final module of the Foundations of Sound Healing™ program, we take that calling and funnel that yes in a way forward to building a sound healing practice and sharing your service with the world.

A WORKSHOP DEMONSTRATION

“Your practice shapes your presence. Your presence shapes the space. The space shapes the possibility.“

I RECEIVED THE FOLLOWING from the folks at SUNREED ~ CENTER FOR SOUND HEALING, a supplier of very high quality quartz crystal singing bowls. Their message conveys a very encouraging, as well as accurate, rationale for those of us who use sound in our energy healing practice. So I thought it would be fitting to share it with my readers. I think you will resonate with it and benefit from its content. Enjoy . . . and feel free to share your thoughts and experiences with me by email. Below you will find my email address, as well as a link to Amazon where you can review and purchase my book ATTUNEMENT WITH SACRED SOUND. Check it out. Here’s the article from SUNREED.

* * * * * * *

There comes a moment in any sacred journey when inspiration must root itself in practice. When the call that once sparked curiosity asks something deeper of us, commitment, presence, and discipline. The path of sound, healing, and consciousness is no different. It is not a one-time event or a quick realization. It is a lived devotion. A practice. A path.

To walk this path is to cultivate a discipline that is not rigid, but reverent. It is a rhythm you return to, again and again, not because you are lacking, but because you are growing.

We practice not because we need to be better, but because we recognize the sacredness of life deserves our attention.

Whether it is toning with our voice, playing an instrument, holding space for another, or simply listening deeply, each time we show up to our practice, we are refining our capacity to be clear, present, and aligned.

Discipline, in this sense, is not about control. It is about devotion to clarity. It is about tending to our inner landscape so we can be of service to others with coherence, integrity, and care.

Your personal practice is also a seed for collective resonance.

When you ground yourself in daily attunement, whether through sound, breath, movement, meditation, or ceremony, you create a vibrational field that others can feel and trust.

Working with others in sound and consciousness requires us to develop our own resonance first. Not perfection, but stability. A kind of inner holding. So that when others enter the field with us, they are met with presence rather than projection, groundedness rather than distraction, awareness rather than reaction.

We practice to prepare ourselves to be a vessel for whatever needs to unfold, for their healing, their emergence, their sound.

When we work with others using sound, we are not fixing or controlling outcomes. We are inviting a process. Sound is a bridge between the conscious and the unconscious, the visible and invisible. When we offer it with intention, we invite others into a co-created space where something more than either of us can do alone may happen.

This kind of practice requires us to let go of needing to “know” what should happen and instead trust the intelligence of the moment. The more deeply you’ve explored your own sound field, your patterns, your voice, your nervous system, your shadows, the more space you hold for others to do the same.

The more consistently we walk this path, the more we emanate a field of integrity.

People feel this, not through what we say, but through how we are. Your practice shapes your presence. Your presence shapes the space. The space shapes the possibility.

Walking this path is not just about what you practice, but how you practice it, with intention, humility, and respect for the mystery. As we walk, we begin to embody what we hope to offer: connection, coherence, and care.

And over time, we come to realize:

The path of practice is not just a means to an end. It is the path itself that transforms us.

Walk the path with us.

The Peace Dove

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.  And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like unto fire, and it sat upon each of them.  (Acts 2:2-3)

THE DOVE IS A SYMBOL of the Holy Spirit in Christian iconography. It’s also a symbol of peace. Pentecost is celebrated on the seventh Sunday, or 50 days, after Easter. (The word pente meaning 5 and kosta meaning 10 times.) Tomorrow, June 8th, is “Pentecost Sunday.” I write about this historical event in my book SACRED ANATOMY ~ Temple of the Living God, in which I share some of my thoughts and insights into this rather ecstatic experience the disciples of Jesus had just after their Lord and Master had ascended back to His Father in Heaven. They were gathered in an upper room in the city of Jerusalem where they were instructed to tarry until the Holy Spirit had fully come.

A couple of things stand out to me in this story that have significant bearing on the process of transformation and ascension occurring with these faithful followers of Jesus. This primary condition is described by the phrase, “with one accord in one place.” (Acts 2:1)

These very close friends of Jesus were in agreement in one thing: their powerful love for this One with whom they had just spent three-and-a-half incredible years in what must have been a whirlwind experience that had utterly turned their worlds upside down—or perhaps more accurately, had turnedthem right side up!  Undoubtedly they had a difficult time making sense out of the events that had just occurred, leading to the untimely end of life on earth for this beautiful man whom they called “Master,” leaving them with an overwhelming sense of great loss and confusion.  All they had left to turn to were each other and the powerful love they were still sharing for the Master in their hearts, as well as the fresh memories of their experiences with him. Everything changed so abruptly and so tragically with his crucifixion, and again, later, so ecstatically with his resurrection and subsequent ascension into heaven.  What could they make of it all?  Of even greater import to us today, what would be made of it over the ensuing years and centuries?  Well, for one thing, Christianity would emerge from it all as a religious movement that would fill much of the world with a belief system unparalleled in recorded history.  But what actually took place in that upper room with these men and women?

Their hearts were “in one place,” the place of utter love for their Beloved Lord and abandon to his will for them, and their minds “with one accord,” singularly focused in this One — as well as, without doubt, in what they were going to do now that He was gone. He had instructed them to tarry in the city of Jerusalem until the Holy Spirit had fully come.

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.  And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like unto fire, and it sat upon each of them.  (Acts 2:2-3)

The ascending flame of love became visible to them as they themselves were in the process of transformation and transmutation in their own consciousness, which was being lifted up to a higher vibratory level to be with this One whose love had drawn them together into a place of accord, just as he had said earlier on it would be:  “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” (John 12:32).  They experienced attunement (at-one-ment) with the life vibration—the shem in the Aramaic, which is translated into English as the name of their Lord and Master, the Christ–Radiance, and the subsequent release of his love through themselves. And immediately they were in that place he had once told them about when he said, “I go to prepare a place for you…so that where I am ye may be also.” (John 14:3)  They were “in the spirit on the Lord’s day” — in phase and in tune with the life vibration of the Lord of Love.  The transformation he was experiencing that had taken him all the way through seven levels of being into complete union with his Father in the highest Heaven, impacted not only his personal physical form but apparently theirs as well.    

The notable thing here is that he was on earth with them at the time he said this, indicating clearly that the kingdom of heaven is to be known and experienced here on earth where we now live and not in some imagined hereafter. This lends meaning to words he had just spoken prior to these: “In my father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so I would have told you.” As we considered earlier on, there is vastly more to the multidimensional context of life and of our makeup than we can observe with our outer senses alone….

FAILURE TO TARRY         

….Another thing that stands out in this story relates to what happened to the apostles and hundreds of their followers after this Pentecost. The apostles went out from the upper room — which symbolically relates to a higher state of consciousness — where they had been instructed by the Master to “tarry in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued [clothed] with power from on high.”(Luke 24:49) — and they began to dissipate the collective spiritual substance they had been generating over the years with Jesus and, more currently, within the crucible of their gathering in the upper room.  This gathering itself, although likely affected by fear of what might become of them after seeing what had become of their Master, was nonetheless a crucible for change in themselves, for transformation in their consciousness and subsequent transmutation in their physical forms.  Physical evidence of this process was appearing in the form of radical and bazar changes that had apparently come over them, even in their manner of speaking.  As the story goes, they began speaking “in tongues” so that even those of different dialects were able to understand what they were saying.  So astounding was this phenomenon that the people were confounded. They were, for a time, experiencing spiritual communion and communication above the level of human language.    

Reading through the account of all this in the book, “Acts of The Apostles,” one can readily see the release of the power that had been building up in this crucible through them. All sorts of healings and extraordinary events took place, both with the apostles and among the people, who were “filled with fear” (awe) at what they were seeing and experiencing.  One apostle was reportedly seen in two different locations at the same time.  So something of a transformation was occurring in their consciousness resulting in transmutation of their physical forms.

But it was all short-lived as the power, mishandled, gradually went out from them and eventually dissipated altogether.  The story ends in utter chaos and tragedy for all of them, and for hundreds of their disciples as well, as they were scattered abroad and many were ultimately put to death by the Romans — except, notably, for John the Beloved who was exiled to the isle called Patmos, where he wrote his Book of Revelation (aka the Apocalypse), the last book of the New Testament, which laid out in mystical language “the things which thou hath seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter.” (Rev. 1:19) From my own personal experience, one needs to be in an elevated place in one’s consciousness to even begin to “see” — with spiritual eyes — what the Spirit of Truth is saying and conveying in and through the words of this sacred scripture.  

I’ll close this blog post with an invitation to visit my friend David Barnes’s recent post of June 1, 2025 on his Great Cosmic Story blog entitled “The Lamb,” a service given by Martin Cecil on May 12, 1974. This is a classic presentation of the history of the three “Sacred Schools,” leading up to the fourth currently cycling in the Creative Process of restoration of God’s Presence on Earth in and through the Body of Man, the “Temple of the Living God.” In my view, this presentation is a great teaching for those seeking an overview of the sacred history of humanity’s sojourn on Earth — of what’s really been unfolding in the history of Man.

I will continue sharing from my book in my next post. Until then,

Be love. Be loved.

THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD

I am the Spirit of Love
I draw my world together as a playing field for my creativity
I and my world are one
I seed and father the life of my world.

I am the Spirit of the Womb
I provide containment and wisdom for the Spirit of Love
I am open to the Father to receive,
conceive, nurture and give birth to the seeds of Love
I mother the life of my world.

I am the Spirit of Life
I bring radiance to my world
I am born anew in each moment
For I am birthless, deathless and eternally the same
I am the life of my world.

I am the Spirit of Purification
I protect the life and this temple from harm
I bring heaven and earth together as one
I give assurance to my world that all is well.

I am the Spirit of Blessing
I uplift the elements of my world through my Creative Process
so they might become part of my body
I provide realization for my world.

I am the Spirit of the Single Eye
I bring power to my body, focus to my mind,
precision to my movement, tranquility to my world.

I am the Spirit of the New Earth
I welcome the substance by which I create all things new
in patience and right expectancy
I am the spirit of love

“Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus, who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” (Acts 1:11)

ON THURSDAY, MAY 29th, the Catholic world of Christianity celebrated the Feast of the Ascension of Jesus into heaven . . .”the Christ, the Son of the Living God,” as one of the disciples acknowledged and proclaimed — a proclamation upon which Jesus said He will build His church. In this year of our Lord 2025, we may rightly celebrate His return, as the angels declared, “in like manner as you have seen him go”. . . on the clouds of heaven. I write about this in SACRED ANATOMY ~ Temple of the Living God:

  Jesus was seen by his disciples as ascending into the clouds above their heads. These clouds may be interpreted as the conditions in their own collective consciousness through which the Lord of Love was making his royal exit from the earthly planes back into the higher planes of being from which he had come, and from which we all have come—the “kingdom of heaven” which he had told them more than once “is within you.”   This could also be the inference made by the two men in white apparel whom they reportedly saw standing with him and whom they heard say: “Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus, who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” (Acts 1:11) 

This may well be a classic instance where dimensional perception did not see nor comprehend the non-dimensional.  In other words, the darkness did not comprehend the light.  The lower planes simply cannot comprehend the higher . . . from the lower planes. But the One who stands in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, the seven planes of being, in the fourth dimension, has both physical and spiritual eyes and can see and comprehend the non-dimensional as clearly and easily as the dimensional. We are invited to stand with Him in this 4th plane of Being and share His view and comprehension of the levels above and below this crossover connection between heaven above and earth below. This is the place we were put in the beginning, the Garden of Eden, with the commission of dressing and keeping it. The “clouds of heaven” may be understood as the vibrational substance of consciousness where the ordinances of Heaven are handed down to Man for their dominion to be set in the earth, a function the Lord queried Job about from “out of the whirlwind, and demanded an answer, as though he had forgotten his Creator and his co-creator role in creating the forms of life to fill and live on the earth. (Job 38:23)

These are the very clouds upon which He has returned. “The Lord is in His Temple. Let all the earth keep silence before Him.” (Habakkuk 2:20). Thus will I be silent and simply welcome Him back . . . except to say “Welcome back, Lord. It’s so good to be with you in the Garden again after all these centuries of forgetfulness and disconnection. I am sorry. Please forgive me. I love you.” To which the Lord replies “Welcome back Home, my precious sons and daughters.” After all, it was we who left the Garden, not the Lord. He never left. We are simply awakening to His presence, having ascended, or been drawn by love, to a higher level of consciousness, the Garden of Eden. We’ve come full circle back from whence we came.

The Body of God on Earth is awakening! Let us give thanks and praise to the Lord for His eternal patience and unconditional love.

“Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus, who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” (Acts 1:11)

THE FEAST OF THE ASCENSION of Jesus back into the inner and higher dimensions of the Realms of Light and to His Heavenly Father, after spending forty days with his disciples, is celebrated by Christians the world over on Thursday, May 29th this year. I offer my readers a very special gift. This video recording is of a presentation given by Lloyd A. Meeker (URANDA), spiritual teacher and modern day prophet, back in July of 1953 and was subsequently entitled “Transfiguration—Ascension.” It’s a bit lengthy (53 minutes) but rich with new perspective and profound insight. I trust that as you listen to his words and resonant voice, you can be open to hear his authoritative message and its many and provocative implications, and resonate with the tonal frequency of his spirit. Enjoy.

(I preface Uranda’s presentation with this passage from the fourteenth chapter of the Gospel of John because I do believe that John the Divine, the Beloved Disciple of Jesus and author of the Book of Revelation, came to “prophesy again,” just as he was promised he would do in sacred scripture, Revelation 10:11: “And he said unto me, ‘Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.'”)

And this From John 14: “. . . These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”

“And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart; And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.” (Matt 17:1)

I take particular note of Uranda’s words about the spiritual nature of ascension, indicating that it’s a vibrational movement upward to a higher dimension and level rather than a physical ascension from the surface of the earth. The “clouds of heaven” describe a state of consciousness. I will consider this in my next post. Until then, I greet you with much Joy in this post-Easter Season.
