What are we doing here?

Before you were born, while you were still experiencing your soul’s natural altruistic, joyful, limitless, blissful state, you made a very well contemplated decision to leap into this body. Not only did you believe you could achieve your soul’s intention, but you also believed that you could make this place better. When we land here, however, we experience earth amnesia, an inability to readily recall all of our eternal memories. This amnesia sets us up for the long journe

Perfection in the Pursuit of Happiness

Are you imperfect? Is your husband? Your daughter? Your boss? Your lover? Your clergyman? Your neighbor? The answer is “yes,” a firm and quick “yes.” Deep down, all people are obviously imperfect. Including you. And that’s a good thing. Imperfection is the most unifying element that captures every single human on earth - for once, an undeniable commonality! All souls, on and off earth, are imperfect. A state of absolute perfection does not exist and for one primary

What my mind tells me

As I continue through the process of removing masks and layers, I gravitate toward wanting to comprehend the process of enlightenment through science. While I enjoy validation through philosophy, theorists, spiritual leaders, and even, to some extent, religion, comprehension of our physical journey through scientific explanation excites me the most. This fascination for me can pose challenges if I RELY on science to make sense of our existence. As I see it, science is as huma

Positively No Negativity

Last month, we ended the Summer’s Reality essay by stating there’s no such thing as positive or negative as you may understand it. The truth is there is simply more or less of something, or the absence of a thing altogether. Does this make sense to you? Let us begin by telling you that there is no such thing as hate. Hate is simply the absence of love. There is no such thing as dark. Dark is simply the absence of light. When you existed in the energy realm (before you bega

Summer's Reality

A Message by Karen's Guides Q: Surf’s up. The waves are coming. They are warm and wild and delightful. Are you surfing or swimming? Are there colorful boards and balls around? What do you see? Bliss? Leisure? Freedom? Joy? Escape? Bandages? Inevitable injuries? Recklessness? What do you see? Karen: I see laughter and easiness. I see being free from responsibility. Q: Recklessness, too? Because the surfers are not conscientiously living productive lives? Karen: No

Is this book a good one for me to read? Is this my path to enlightenment?

"It seems to me, you live your life like a candle in the wind. Never knowing who to cling to when the rain comes in..." -Candle in the Wind, 1973 Sources for universal truth proliferate on earth today. It seems that each month, or week, or day, a new book or theorist or philosophy takes off in the mass market, providing a wonderful opportunity for people to increase their level of awareness. With the volume of information out there, how do you decide what has value? How do

Dealing with Stifling Personalities

As many people increase their level of awareness and becoming happier and happier, they begin to notice the weightiness of the interactions with someone in their life. How do you deal with such a person? To manage difficult personalities, you have two choices. The first is obvious - decide that this person's influence is repeatedly detrimental and eliminate the person (extreme) or their influence (by not discussing certain matters) from your life. This method is impractical

Intuition - Bridging the Realms

I “listened” to a woman this week with a great idea. The idea popped into her head a few years ago and seems fantastic, yet undoable. Actually, it is doable, but it’s hard. It’s probably not that hard, just troublesome at times. The thing about it, though, is that a lot of people will benefit if she pulls it off. Yet, it’s so much easier to do nothing – maybe the ultimate benefit will never occur. As a soul without a physical body, I spend a great deal of energy trying to

The Law of Attraction vs. Intuition

With trying to understand The Law of Attraction all the rage these days, I wonder if we sometimes predict a negative outcome based on our intuition or if we have created the negative event because of our thoughts. Intuition verses the law of attraction. When do you stop thinking that the law of attraction has brought an undesirable experience into your life and realize that the fact that you thought about it at all was simply intuition? There are so many levels to the opera
