Dear Adam,

Tonight Gloria dreamed about “SHAMANS” yes, I know you’ll wonder what a shaman is unless you already know. We didn’t, so we asked the “Pyramid Lady” what the word meant and she said, “It was a healer that it was someone who could see past the concrete world, past current knowledge to a special kind of truth by looking deeply into himself.” Also that he understood the connection between humans, nature, and the spirits and he used the truth and that understanding to help heal his people – that, it was a calling – the Indians called a gift from the Great Spirit – which the gift is passed from one shaman to another – the older teaches the younger.

When she repeated all this twice we asked if the spirits were like God and she said, “Very much like what we call God except that the Indians see “God” in all things and it was a beautiful gift, and if Gloria wanted it badly enough, that she had it in her power to make the community better – she’d already done so in her past work with children and their parents – also by bringing back from a time of testing, violence, and chaos, the special visions she had. That she had clean hands and a pure heart and could walk the red path, if she so chose – and that she would guide us.”

The Pyramid Lady talked with us a long time and explained all kinds of experiences we had profited by and it turned out to be a most encouraging dream. When we told her how interesting all of her talk was she said it was her job to guide us to encouraging truths and when Gloria said, “I think I could be a shaman if I wanted to,” she said that she was already well on her way to being just that. We learn something new every night, it seems, now we know a new word “shaman”. Did you ever hear of it before?

THE REALITY OF KARMA AND SPIRITUAL ADVANCEMENT

May 4, 2016psychological, spiritualLinden Morningstar

Gloria realized with the help of the Pyramid Lady that she has chosen the painful life lessons she must work on in order to ascend spiritually and fulfill her true purpose and mission in life. Gloria chose the ‘light’ and God realization over fear and darkness.

Dear Adam,

So many of the dreams Gloria has point out a lesson. I’m beginning to think that on earth there are no actual mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves no matter how unpleasant are necessary in order to learn what we need to know to learn; whatever steps we take they’re necessary to reach the place we’ve chosen to go. It’s like when we look back on our days, they’ve passed in a flash – time doesn’t last and nobody’s got long to live. Something bridges time and the best way to pay for a happy moment is to enjoy it. I wonder how we would live if we were spiritually advanced. Like our curiosity about dying – once you think you’ve done it (Gloria’s first heart attack) – we think of it as jumping down a dark tunnel and with luck and the brilliant action from guardian angels we’re at that light of warmth and love which is God in all His mercy. In a dream we were with the stars tonight again except that they were green, red, and blue stars and the Pyramid Lady was there and she told me that, “Each day that I stay on my feet, each day that I see, hear, feel, and smell what everyone else does, and each night that I go to sleep in my bed, I could climb under the covers with a feeling of victory.” Sure I’d have the fear a lot but also have the victory. That’s really something to hope for isn’t it? A victory each day – what a miracle if we could feel that way each day. The lady also said that I’m doing so well. She said, “My child you’ve been through more than most could handle and come out of it so well. I marvel at your wisdom and courage and tell Adam our friend that I feel humble in the face of his wisdom, generosity of spirit and courage, also.” I felt humble too and Gloria and I, found ourselves on the beach with soft sand on our feet. We had two bad dreams also, but I thought this most important to write about and now I forgot them. See you soon.

Gloria discovers Energy Healing in a precognitive dream

Wednesday night

Hi again,

I fell asleep and as I slept I formed an image in my mind – the picture of a flame, a single golden flame burning gently from its source; all around the flame there was darkness. My mind filled with the vision of the burning golden flame until I could feel its warmth and could hear the soft murmur of its energy.

Concentrating on the flame, the flame that burned at the core of my soul, I slowed my breathing and forced my body to relax. It was a process that felt as if it took hours, but which took only minutes, the gathering of my strength and the centering it on that flame. To those who watched me, my face betrayed some of the intense concentration inside my mind.

Those who watched me were doctors and they said I seemed to have gone to sleep; there was no evidence of the forces slowly building up in me. They said they watched me as I lay my hands directly on the writhing body of a man, my hands moved at first in a small circle, then gradually widening until they traced a path in the air the length of his body.

When my hands stopped, the man who was dying stirred and opened his eyes. The doctors asked me, “What did you do?” But I didn’t know all I felt was the flame’s heat.

Wednesday night

Dear Adam,

Gloria’s dream tonight was a strange one. A whole group of people were waiting to go on an astral voyage. The woman in front of Gloria was very nervous. Waiting in the departure lounge, while others stood around in small groups talking or reading magazines – she paced. She would walk up to a travel poster about space, stare at it, and then move away probably without having seen the poster at all. She could not rest and she was not alone. When the launch was called she walked into the open air and as we all saw for the first time, in the distance, the vehicle that would carry everyone into orbit. Gloria knew that she was on Earth and was going on an astral trip and not into space like the others. She sympathized with them leaving yet she felt superior – imagine not knowing the difference between a voyage into space and one in astral projection. Suddenly, we we’re aware that the Pyramid Lady was there. She said that every effort had been made for an astral trip to our old place when Gloria was seven years old and that only one thing would be shown to us but it was very important to be prepared for a shock and she was right – it was like a slide projector clicked inside our head unrolling a scene from Gloria’s past life.

The “Other” was in the room we came upon – I will never forget his expression, the wide dark empty look in his eyes, the dead pallor of his face, the rigid lips, the tightened skin of his features – as if a death mask were already upon him. He said nothing to Gloria. He pointed to something on the floor – it was a dog – it wasn’t black and white as it should have been it was sludge colored and its coat was stiff and spiky. It was plainly dead. He began to talk – he said, “I got real mad at that dog and bent down and scooped him up and threw him into the deep-fryer; I fried that dog he wouldn’t disobey me again.” He said a lot more about the dog screaming and said it was unbelievable but Gloria was so shocked that she didn’t hear anymore and the Pyramid Lady came in and took her out. She said, “She had warned her that she’d be shocked but it was necessary that she take that trip or she’d never remember the rest.”

Whatever the “rest” means I don’t want to know if it’s anything like this. To say we were shocked is putting it mildly, we still can’t believe we had such a dream or astral trip and hope this is the last astral trip we take to Gloria’s childhood. I hope we haven’t shocked you by retelling it but it seemed important to talk of it. See you tomorrow.

Sunday night

Dear Adam,

In my dream tonight, I heard a voice which said, “There you are Gloria dear!” and saw the Pyramid Lady’s face light up with pleasure. Tonight I caught a good look at her and caught my breath at her loveliness. Here is exactly the kind of unforgettable beauty that has inspired great poets and artists for centuries. No one could remain unmoved by it for long. And once again found myself entirely captivated by my friend.

She said, “I’m so glad I found you today. I was dying to see you again and to talk to you.” “Yes, so was I,” I responded. “It’s about the Little Lamp that I want to talk to you.” “I’m enjoying it so much,” said I. “Yes, but you mustn’t ever be afraid when you get visions during your meditation.”

“I’m not afraid exactly but know visions sometimes have to do with mental problems,” I told her.

“Not in this specific case. These visions are mainly to enlighten you about the future. I’m very proud of the progress you and Adam are making and you don’t want anything to back you up, so don’t be upset by anything that happens out of the ordinary,” the Lady said.

Then she showed me a light that she had and it was there just like mine, and shortly after bade me goodbye and said, “We’ll meet again soon and I’ll put your worries at rest. Till then dear friend, God Bless,” and she disappeared.

I woke up wondering how strange this dream had been, her referring to the light as if she had known about it without my talking of it. How could she have known? Strange isn’t it?

Enlightenment and Self Realization

April 3, 2016The path to Self RealizationLinden Morningstar

“Swan dive into the part of the self where the living spirit dwells. Let the molten rock churning at the center of the Earth let your spirit burn. Fuel it with adventure. Fuel it with love. Let it erupt in volcanic passion coming alive as it burns within giving life to the body. We are here to live, here to experience, here to be the eyes and the hands of the creative force flowing through the universe, giving it form. Let your experience guide you to the light. For once immersed, we awaken to the joy of fully living in ‘this’ world. As we break through the ancient crust of ego we realize that we are all apart of the same force experiencing our creation subjectively and on a level beyond the reach of our senses, beyond the grasp of our minds, we are all connected. We are all one.”
