Excerpts :: Sunrise ~ A book of Knowledge and comfort for the bereaved, by White Eagle

Published March 19, 2024 by tindertender

The recognition and control of your own body of feeling and emotion is one of the very first lessons to be learnt, if you would develop spiritual insight, because your feelings, if uncontrolled, are going to cause a storm. Do you remember the story of the disciples on the Sea of Galilee? As their Master slept in the boat beside them, a great storm arose, and in their fear they called upon the Master, who rose up in the boat and commanded the waters to be still and the storm to subside. The boat is a symbol of the soul; the water, of the emotions; and the Master is the Christ, the spirit within, which alone can control the storms of emotion. You see from this that to protect yourself from adverse and disturbing thoughts, and to control your emotional body, you too must seek the love of God, the love of Christ. You must pray for, and strive to become this gentle love.

————————————————————

Violent emotions are as destructive to the higher bodies as the pure, lovely emotions are constructive; for the latter contain the creative power of God, while the violent emotions contain the destructive power. This is the reason why we stress the necessity for control of your emotions as the first step towards conscious contact with the inner worlds.

————————————————————

Light is another word for life, that is all. Life is God.

————————————————————

You often wonder whether the spirit people eat. Why should they not eat? We certainly eat, not flesh of animals, but fruits that grow in the spirit world. Life in our world is perfectly natural. We are not yolkless , Shelley’s eggs! We are perfectly normal people with bodies and homes and gardens and all the things which we need. We live a perfectly natural, normal life. You think that we have no body but you are wrong; we have etheric, astral and mental bodies, but you cannot see them. You too have other bodies and the more evolved you become, the more you develop the higher bodies.

————————————————————

Remember that with you as with us, it is the quality of the consciousness of the soul which decides where the soul will find itself, either during the sleep state or after shedding the physical body.

————————————————————

Subconsciously, most of you long for a better world. You feel in some way attached to this life of spirit, and rightly so, for it is your true home. You have come from this world of spirit to live in the flesh, where you are imprisoned until you learn to free yourself.

————————————————————

You have one particular teacher or guide, who may be attached to you through a number of lives … if you will try to listen to your guide, who comes on a higher level than the helpers, he will speak through the voice of your higher self, which is your conscience, or, as it is sometimes called, the voice of God.

————————————————————

We would suggest that you practice breathing. We mean conscious breathing in of the light, of the life of God; and the conscious breathing out of love to mankind.

‘Breathe on me, Breath of God’ says the old hymn. Breathe in God. Breathe out God’s love. Breathe out God’s blessing to all human life.

————————————————————

Within man’s heart is the golden sun, his spirit, which can rise on wings into realms supernal. All of you have the power so to fly, and must learn to use it.

————————————————————

Let aspiration come first, then prayer and correct breathing, and surrender to God. What is the next requisite? It is to learn to live daily a serene and tranquil life. We do not mean you should become too serious or solemn; if you do, you will chain yourself to the heaviness of the earth’s atmosphere. Be very still and quiet, but also have the joy of the spirit singing within you and laughter on your face.

One Life

Published March 18, 2024 by tindertender

I counted my years and found that I have less time to live from here on than I have lived up to now.
I feel like that child who won a packet of sweets: he ate the first with pleasure, but when he realized that there were few left, he began to enjoy them intensely.

I no longer have time for endless meetings where statutes, rules, procedures and internal regulations are discussed, knowing that nothing will be achieved.

I no longer have time to support the absurd people who, despite their chronological age, haven’t grown up.

My time is too short:
I want the essence,
my soul is in a hurry.
I don’t have many sweets
in the package anymore.
I want to live next to human people,
very human, who know how to laugh at their mistakes, and who are not inflated by their triumphs, and who take on their responsibilities.
Thus human dignity is defended and we move towards truth and honesty.

It is the essential that makes life worth living.
I want to surround myself with people who know how to touch hearts, people who have been taught by the hard blows of life to grow with gentle touches of the soul.

Yes, I’m in a hurry, I’m in a hurry to live with the intensity that only maturity can give.

I don’t intend to waste any of the leftover sweets.
I am sure they will be delicious, much more than what I have eaten so far.

My goal is to reach the end satisfied
and at peace with my loved ones
and my conscience.

We have two lives.

And the second begins when you realize you only have one.

Beautiful poem by Mario de Andrade (San Paolo 1893-1945) Poet, novelist, essayist and musicologist.

I Am … A Memory of Notes Long Ago

Published March 17, 2024 by tindertender

If you use your “I Am” statements in a negative fashion, you will bring all of that upon yourself.

———————————————

Whatever you do purely out of selfish motivation will not be successful.

———————————————

Rules vs Power

Rules place a thumb upon another, power and control.

Power preserves tradition history, roles suited to best serve the whole.

———————————————

One positive and one negative cancel each other out. If one wishes third party relations and the other wishes sacred union, it’ll never work. It will be chaos, like never living goodness at all. Misery. Yet some love and even require your misery in order to get along.

———————————————

I’m not a bad cat.

8-9-10

You can gauge your love vibration by how gentle the heart is.

———————————————

She’s a frozen fire.

By the sky above me, by the land below me, by the fire to my right hand, by the water to my left, may the Powers of Nature bless and protect me, now and always.

———————————————

Space, time, love. Fundamentals of life.

———————————————

We all have to eat shit in our lives, literally, figuratively, whatever. Regurgitated shit spewing in faces everywhere we go.

The thing is, this is also the forging fire. That which tries to break us by feeding us garbage, we turn into a transforming fire that makes us so much more that we could have ever imagined.

It often resonates through familial lineage through constant connections through various incarnations … and the shit storm stutters when they’ve realized you’ve changed, you’ve developed a taste for shit and smile anyway, living your best life.

———————————————

We all have suffered pain … from childhood, relationship, job status, income level and all that entails. Often, especially the younger ones, rebel, holler, swear, fight, hurt self, hurt others. Actions that scream I am in pain, I am suffering! Take this off of me! And they put that pain, anger, rage out onto others, perpetuating it.

We must stop, become aware, reclaim our energies, our efforts, and redirect them to the polar opposite of suffering. Take it all and create its polar opposite, rather than being puppet, slave to emotional bondage.

———————————————

Television programming desensitizes people to chaos, making the brain numb and sort of zombified when it comes to empathy. Newscasters have become nothing more than talk-show hosts.

———————————————

We all like to think we are a “main player” in the game. No one wants to realize they’ve been a pawn all along. Others may even tell you, you are a main player to continue the cycle, to bring damage. We want to believe we are worthy so badly we often do things our conscious pings us about for status gain. Beguiling.

———————————————

If circumstances take you out of your love space, you’ve then been rendered useless to the progression of love … of creating peace for you and all you encounter.

Prophecy

Published March 17, 2024 by tindertender

A story, appearing whole.

Different qualities, actions and traits are sought after. Seekers do not realize the prophecy, the “story” is built using “fragments”. ONE from each portion of the multiverse.

The story is made available in a “seemingly” tangible “world” and everyone is seeking the final sum of traits within the story not realizing it isn’t one story at all, it is not “whole” and there is no such thing that can be found.

Each multiverse has its own “piece” to the puzzle. It requires team work to find and understand.

I Release the Dream

Published March 14, 2024 by tindertender

Here we are, between worlds. Stagnant are we, waiting to see what direction this river will take.

Will it flow?

Will it get jammed, as in a winter rage?

Will it dry up?

Will it create a new path?

I need not know. I need not know the players. I need not know my role. I need not know who’s right or who’s wrong, or how it ends.

I need not know what I deserve, or the fate of any other.

I release the dream and I step forth into a new reality, whatever that may be.

May the collection of life’s challenges be remembered as I pull from the strength gained thru them, resilient, persistent, determined … determined to live as happy as I am able despite those who would snuff the promise of reward.

I release the dream, while it still lives.

If it’s meant for me it will be.

After all, everything experienced, everything, can be used to shoot the arrow forward, or break the bow.

Choice.

It’s where the Power is.

Expanding into Liberation

Published March 11, 2024 by tindertender

That discomfort you’re feeling?
It’s a sign that it’s time to grow,
To level up,
To shift towards something
B I G G E R.
Lean In.

I see the people, elbow to elbow in a circle, their backs are to the inside, their fronts facing out. Their countenance is like the sun. As they open their arms exposing their front center to the light, the cocoon of darkness which had enveloped them opens, and as they spread their arms wide, the darkness is contained behind them in the residue of the collective cocoon. This darkness is encased by this cocoon, and surrounding this dark ball is the golden, fiery light of the liberated souls. This dark ball burns in this fiery light, enslaved in its own making … the cocoon of darkness … now surrounded by the flames of liberation.

Maybe this is what the prophets spoke of when describing the earth on fire.

A Promise

Published March 11, 2024 by tindertender

There was a promise made to a false person wearing a mask, pretending to be someone … you/me … the promise is:

“You will be severely challenged.”

Guess the “reward” for the work they’ve been doing is being delivered.

Stop enabling fvckery!

Don’t bail ‘em out if they get caught!

Let them feel the wrath.

People need to learn the consequences of their actions.
