Caution: some may find this article disturbing and/or unsettling.

This past weekend, my husband, a friend and I watched a TV program on organ transplants, as well a work being done with cadaver parts and using stem cell work to ‘grow’ replacement parts.

I am in no way saying either is ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ – but would like to share some thoughts and questions on the energy, cell memory and soul aspect of these two types of procedures. I have no definitive answers.

Organ Transplant

My thoughts (as they often zip around)…

If:

• The soul enters the body anywhere from conception right up to just before birth; it’s the soul’s preference as to when it enters the body.
• Our blood cells retain memories (cellular, or cell, memories) – to possibly include ancestral cellular memories.
• According to the practice of soul retrieval, any trauma can result in a soul loss (a small portion of one’s soul stays at the point of trauma, resulting in a small reduction in soul). Soul loss can occur in any lifetime (past or present) and takes a retrieval to reclaim and re-incorporate the soul fragment back into the whole.

Then:
What happens when someone dies and their organs are donated?

We know that many organ recipients have experienced changes in taste, habits, hobbies, interests and/or temperaments.

Though science states there is not scientific proof of cellular memory; many recipients beg to differ.

Is there cell memory transfer to the organ recipient? (My thought = highly likely)

Is there soul fragment loss for the organ donor? (My though = highly unlikely)

Cadaver ‘Parts’ and Stem Cell Work

Well, you know me; those thoughts led me to ponder on the procedure where cadaver body parts (scrubbed of outer layers) are infused with stem cells to “re-grow” the cadaver body part and make it viable for transplant (example: nose or an ear).

With organ donors, the organs are “harvested” quickly to transplant, (if I understood correctly) not so for cadaver parts.

So…

• Does this mean that the life force in the cadaver part is non-existent?
• Is there cellular memory in the cadaver parts?
• What is the energy and/or cellular ramifications or side effects on the recipient?

Again, I have no answers; I have no sense or feeling of ‘right’ or ‘wrong’; and I have now shared my thoughts and questions with you.

What are your thoughts? (Please share and keep it ‘clean’).

This morning I woke up and got ready for the day. It was like any other day until a condition that occurs rarely happened. When it is very dry out, as it has been for a few days now, I can have a piece of dry skin fall into one of my eyes. When this happens I can’t see through that eye for several minutes until I blink or wash out my eye.

This morning was one of those times. Just as I was temporarily blinded the phone rang and it was my mother wanting to know if I would go shopping with her. I told her what was happening and that I didn’t feel safe to drive just now.

My mother told me she would be over with some eye drops. I am very thankful that my mother is always willing to help me out when something like this comes up. During the time that it took for her to arrive I had blinked and used water to clean out my eye and it was fine.

Still for those few painstaking moments of blindness in one eye it made me appreciative of a few things. I was grateful I could see out of my other eye. I was grateful that I could hear to get that phone call from my mother. I was grateful that I could get up and head to the sink towash my eye out with water.

Losing my sight made me acutely aware of many of the things we tend to take for granted. In a strange way temporarily losing my sight made me see clearly the blessings I do have.

I did end up heading out and helping my mom shop. As I made my way through the aisles I saw several handicapped people and felt a stronger empathy with them.

Sometimes it takes something negative to make us see the positive.

In my DACC Community Education bio, I state that I am a metaphysical instructor, practitioner and student; and the ‘student’ part was very prominent this past Thursday.

I live in the boonies – seriously!

After driving approximately one mile to get to the main (and only) road out, I then drive about six miles on dirt road to reach ‘civilization’. Okay, two things: the road really isn’t dirt, it’s clay; and, six miles doesn’t seem like a big deal…until it’s raining while construction vehicles are tearing up the road.

Under normal circumstances, my husband and his vehicle usually rescue delivery trucks, personal vehicles, etc. if they get stuck out there.

I opt for safety when it rains heavily – the road is drivable, just very slick…I stay home – that was until last Thursday. (#1)

I was speaking at the Las Cruces general Spiritual Meeting / A.R.E.  (Association of Research and Enlightenment based on Edgar Cayce readings) registered group. (A really neat group – check them out! A link provided at the end of this article.)

I shielded, said a quick prayer, and headed out. I had almost made it to the blacktop (aka ‘civilization’) when I hit a patch of road where construction site workers had physically torn up the road. (#2)

An eighteen-wheeler parked slightly cockeyed on the opposite side of the road and some type of loader working on my side of the road. The loader had really big tires, and had literally torn up the road. The road was also lined with the construction worker’s vehicles.

The way the truck and loader were on the road left me a small space to maneuver through…and it didn’t work; I began sliding (missed the big truck), slid past the truck, slid sideways and came to a stop; I was blocking the road, and I was stuck. After rocking myself out, I slid to the blacktop.

After the meeting, I had to drive the road again – and I did not want to. (#3) The construction-related vehicles, save one, were gone from the road. Driving 10 mph, I made it home.

But I still had to go back out that evening for class. When my husband came home, I asked him to drive me to work; he said “No.” He explained that since the road was so torn up, he had more trouble than I getting home. (#4)

He suggested I cancel the class and reschedule for later. I said I would like to do that, but decided I should go ahead and go to class. (#5)

I left an hour early to give myself plenty of time; I made it halfway up the road and gently slid…I was stuck. As we used to say in Louisiana, “stuck good!”

Fast forward: Muddy hands, one broken shovel, two sets of tennis shoes that felt like they weighed twenty pounds from packed on clay, my husband and I gave up trying to extract my vehicle.

Class cancelled and rescheduled.

After we got home, cleaned up and dried off, I asked my self “What was the purpose of this experience?”

There may be other, unknown to me, reasons – but for me, it boiled down to: I had ignored not only my own sense of wrongness about getting back on the messed-up road; I also ignored the other indicators (see #’s 1-5).

So for me, it was a refresher on ‘back to the basics’ experience: Listen to and trust yourself!

P.S. – My vehicle was ‘extracted’ Friday afternoon.

This past Thursday, I had the pleasure of attending a meditation group at Pi Yoga. It was a good session with seven people. Normally I have a hard time calming my

mind unless it is at night prior to bed; yet the quiet setting and low lights were able to help me to still my mind. The session was led by Erica who helped us by directing us to still our minds and go through deep breathing to enter a meditative state.

She asked us to concentrate on a question or thought that we had on our minds. I was curious about my evolution and the idea of ascension.

I was able to quickly go into meditation and soon I was able to have a really startling experience. I pictured myself with someone else, possibly a guide floating down through a DNA spiral. It was like falling slow and as we passed through parts of it I felt the friction of energy passing through energy. The being with me remained silent and I felt they were there more for my own desire to have a friend nearby then to impart information.

As we continued I saw the DNA throughout my body and was able to travel along till I came to some shiny structures, like crystal growths. The best way to describe it is white quartz but only the tiniest slivers and it seemed internally lit.

I was curious about this and so backed my perception away to examine my whole body and found it was not unique but that I perceived this in many places like small glowing points. From a distance it was like looking at stars.

I moved my perception back down to the place where I first saw the crystal-like structure and I entered it. It did glow internally and I felt as if I was in a white tunnel. It stretched off into the distance and I simply admired things for a while. I backed my perception up and found that all those glowing points had tunnels as well. White glowing strands stretching off.

I was kind of amazed with it and found the white tunnels stretched out and the other people meditating had these lines as well. They were everywhere connected. These glowing lines looked to me like a mass of white so densely packed it was hard to differentiate between individual strands.

I sent out a pulse a greetings, a hello along the lines. I brought my perception out and found the lines extended well beyond the room – they extended out far into space. I tried to follow them as far as I could. They extended into other places I guess what could be termed other dimensions. I felt a kind of information overload and pulled back.

This experience certainly gave credence to all of us being one.

This was only one of the experiences I had during the mediation and the whole mediation was only thirty minutes long or so. So I am not sure if I was experiencing an out of body experience or some internal mental visions.

I would recommend guided meditations to those who are interested. I myself can only say that I had a most interesting experience.

Peter wrote about how we are filled with thoughts that are constantly bombarding us in every moment, and how residual we are in getting through the trials that life offers, much of I might add, are brought on by greed and corruption that are imposed on innocent people. The article, by the way, is excellent.

Jan wrote about a wonderful message that she received in a reading that the shift has happened and how beautiful it really is. I have no doubt that this is true, however, isn’t that divine intervention at work?

I am going to push a few buttons if I may. It is something that I seldom read anything about.  It’s something that I sincerely want to understand for my own growth.

I would honestly like to know why an enlightened person, one who has committed their life to be of service to humanity and all creation as great teaches of our time, find it necessary to charge hundreds and thousands of dollars for a week end work shop?

Many seem to have found keys, that open doors  that have  tremendous affects on humanity and our outcome as we enter the new age. Many of these teachers have the ability change lives, sometimes instantly.

In my research, the one thing that remains consistent is the compassion to leave no one behind. It’s the intent  that is driven by love that heals and offers us the opportunity to ascend.

The majority of the people on this planet are hard working honest people that are doing everything in their power just to put food on their table. These are the ones of pure heart. I am sure they would appreciate the hope they could receive from attending one of these high dollar workshops.

It seems to me that it’s time to stop the insanity. It’s time to realize that we are all in this together. When I see someone in need I help them. They get better and can contribute to the whole in a more positive way. I don’t charge them $395 or $5500 for my help, however, I might charge them $10 for my book that teaches them to pass on the gift they received. Seems like a win- win situation.

A friend and I had stopped by MLEC (Metaphysical Life Enrichment Center in Las Cruces), and as we walked in, we saw a flyer which read: “Messages from Our Departed Loved Ones” by Martha Turner; we each scheduled a half-hour session with Martha.

When it was time for my session, Martha welcomed me; her energy was gentle and warm-hearted.

She asked me if I wanted to contact anyone specifically; I told her that I was open to who ever showed up.

With pen in hand, she began writing the information she was receiving.

The first to show up was my daughter; she came with words of encouragement and to let me know that she now understands when I had been talking about when I had told her (while she was still living) that God had a great sense of humor.

Later, my maternal grandfather popped in – complete with his very Irish sense of humor.

He also left me with a message, part of which I would love to share with you all:

“…Shift has happened
You all don’t know yet
the true Glory of the New Way.”

I am so looking forward to it!

I really enjoyed Martha’s energy, sense of humor, gentle demeanor and her ability.

Thank you Martha!

As you may well know we are filled with thoughts constantly bombarding us in every moment. We scarcely have time to relax and quiet our minds to listen to our own thoughts. We have the media pounding away with it’s stories although thankfully though we have heard of the tragedy in Haiti, we have seen the massive outpouring of help as well. In recent history we are seeing tragedy met with immediate aid in the form of money, medical aid, food distribution and expert help in many other areas.

Let us take these examples, like Katrina in the US, the tsunami in Sumatra and now the earthquakes in Haiti. We could view them as a tragedy, we could shake our heads and dwell on the massive loss of life. Such thoughts can consume us. We can also chose to concentrate on the positive aspects which may seem overshadowed by the tragedy.

Such positive aspects as, attention being given to a part of the world that would not have received such attention except through such a tragedy. It makes people aware that their fellow brothers and sisters regardless of skin color, or religion are suffering and in need of aid.

This awareness brings light to the darkness because we can no longer ignore it as we might have a mere thirty years ago. A rush of aid from many countries, as well as medical personal, peace keeping forces, rescue teams, excavators and many others volunteering their time, money and compassion did their best to help out where needed. One needs only take a step back and see the worst of tragedies bring out the best in us as the race of humanity.

This would be a macro reflection of our own lives. When we are facing personal tragedies that seem insurmountable we can get lost in the drama of whatever the problem may be. Our own internal chatter might fill us with thoughts such as, “This is impossible to overcome”, “I can’t do this”, or “I am not smart enough, good enough or strong enough”. We forget the same rush of aid that came flooding to these regions that were struck with tragedy lies within us.

We can be our own rescue team during our own personal tragedies. It takes a moment to quiet our minds and instead of listening to the voices in our heads giving us all the reasons why we cannot overcome a situation or problem, realize we also have within us the voice of our own internal angel. Often the negative voice of fear, doubt and ego will overpower this compassionate loving voice which is there to provide us all the aid we need.

Just think of all the tragedies and problems in your life that you have overcome and become stronger because of it. Little things – perhaps like learning to ride a bike, learning to balance a checkbook, facing a test we know will be hard. Then look at the big tragedies in our lives, perhaps a house fire, or the loss of a loved one. Years later we can look back on these things and say “I remember when I thought that was the end of the world for me.” We may remember the tragedy but we also have the realization that it wasn’t the end of the world for us.

That part of ourselves from the future, if it could go back and say “You’ll make it! You’re going to do just fine! Not only can we handle this but now we can help others going through the same thing!” Like some personal cheerleader who is there to make sure we don’t forget all the power we have and all the factors that can come together to aid us in tough times.

That voice is there, if we listen for it. Our higher self to whom time is non-existent; it knows we have already overcome things, already learned valuable lessons to strengthen us. It is our own internal angel. If we take a moment to go back over the tons of tiny little tragedies we go through in our lives. We can see there has been help, or personal reserves of power that have allowed us to overcome and be where we are now. Our higher self is always there it knows what we are capable of. Take a moment then to quiet your mind and tell that voice that says we can’t, were not good enough, or this is impossible that it was wrong hundreds of times before in our lives so why should we listen to it now. Instead let us say “Higher self, my own internal angel, we’ve been through a lot together, let me hear what you have to say.”

You might just hear a soft “We can do this! We are powerful enough to overcome these challenges.” It might not be a voice but a feeling, a knowing of these things. Smile to yourself when you hear or feel these responses. Every time we have hit some personal tragedy that voice has been there. We may not have heard it, but chances are we felt it and that feeling allowed us to overcome.

Just as these macro scale tragedies made people cry out in pain and sorrow which drew the tremendous resources and aid of the rest of the world, we, in the micro scale of our own lives can realize those tremendous reserves of aid, love and compassion are within us. Get to know your higher self; let it’s voice or feelings dominate for a while. You will find your own personal tragedies easier to face, with a knowing of all the little tragedies you have overcome before.

Then allow what aid comes along to enter into our lives. it could be personal reserves of strength, willpower or the actual aid of others coming to help us. When that happens always take a moment to thank your higher self for rooting for you, for being there and letting you know it knows you can handle it, or that it knew you would get the help you needed.

Into a Timeless Realm: A Metaphysical Adventure by Michael J. Roads. © 1995, H.J. Kramer. ISBN 978-0915811663.

Michael Roads awoke at 2:00 a.m. to the sound of howling wind, and shortly discovered that while he was sitting in bed – his light body began a journey.

Roads physical self had journaled this extraordinary experience that his light body was having.

He detailed the Beings he encountered and some really interesting lessons.

During one of his experiences, Roads was able to view, and explore, some of our (human and/or Earth’s) possible futures.

Michael, through sharing experiences, takes the reader out of the ‘accepted norm’ and brings the reader on a journey as he pierces the membranes between illusion (physical life) and Reality.

Favorite Passage:

“…Focus on all that you are, on your potential, your capabilities, your capacity. Ignore what you think you are not. Accept yourself the way you are. Trust in yourself in all things at all times.”  (pg. 234)

I highly recommend this book for all.

In  “Earthbounds”, I talked about types of earthbounds – those who had died, but didn’t cross over…they are still attached to Earth; they are just slightly out of sync with our dimension.

I want to delve a bit more into the earthbounds who have remained here because of an addiction.

Does this mean that everyone who has any type of addiction will not cross “into the Light”?

Absolutely not!

Staying earthbound is a choice! It is not a punishment; it is not just because a person had an addiction while they were physical.

Those with addictions who choose to remain earthbound usually do so to continue “hanging out” with those in the physical who are using the deceased’s preferred substance of choice, and they try to get their ‘fix’ or ‘high’ through a physical person’s substance abuse.

For example: Mr. X and Mr. Z had both been cocaine addicts and had died. Mr. X decided to not cross over; instead, he looked for the energy signature of another cocaine addict who was still living.

Let’s say he found Ms. Y, a cocaine addict. Mr. X will move his energy closer to Ms. Y, entering her energy field, to absorb the emanations that Ms. Y exudes while she is getting high; Mr. X chose to seek out the energy of an addict instead of moving into the Light.

Mr. Z, who was also an addict who had died, looked for and saw the bright white Light (or tunnel, etc.) and perhaps saw some deceased loved ones and/or guides awaiting his arrival. Mr. Z chose to cross over and may have been pleased to be free of his addiction. He chose to let the addiction go.

For Those of You Who Have an Addiction

Speaking as one of us who can ‘see’ – when you abuse drugs and/or alcohol, you emit a drug/alcohol specific energy pattern, and you call to you some of those earthbound addicts. Your energy field – instead of being smooth and steady – has holes, like a slice of swiss cheese; this allows unwelcomed and/or unwanted energies to enter your energy field and to attach to you. I see them as “leeches”.

Earthbounds cannot be forced to cross over (because of free will) – on the other hand, they are violating your free will by attaching themselves to you while “encouraging” you to continue your addiction.

This is not an excuse, or an “out” from taking responsibility for your own actions!

You can have the attachments removed (or you remove them)…but, the next time you partake of substance abuse, the attachment pattern repeats.

By getting – and staying – clean and having the attachments removed, your energy will have the chance to begin re-stabilizing (barring mental/physical imbalances).

Your choice.

We are all born with the beautiful gift of free will. We, in any moment have the ability to practice our free will. How do we know when we are using our free will ?

There are many things which keep us from thinking that we have free will, yet it is there regardless. If we are in a situation that is uncomfortable to us, like a party that were having a bad time at, or a job that is unsatisfying we have the option to leave in a moment.

There are of course things which keep us from thinking we can: guilt over disappointing others; fear over future interactions with the people from the party, or fear over financial security by leavingone’s job. Free will sometimes takes courage to put into practice.

Free will can be taken from us at any time if we allow it. Thankfully this is a choice of free will and can be changed in a moment if we simple use our free will to chose to do so.

We can choose to watch a television program that interests us; this is practicing free will, though sometimes we zone out in front of the tv and don’t even change the channel to find something that interests us but just watch whatever comes on – and that is when we are giving up our free will; giving itup to indifference.

There are times when we give up our free will due to peer pressure, or simple indifference. Have you ever been approached to sign a petition that you really didn’t care for either way? Suddenly you find yourself signing it simply to please the other person or to get them to simply stop pestering you. This is one example of giving up our free will.

Another time we give up our free will is when the news is constantly flooding us with certain views or scaring us into certain acts, we give up our free will if we allow our reactions to be solely dictated by these things. The next time the media seems to be saying to run right out and do this, or that it is un-American to do or not do something. Take a step back, think for yourself. This is a time for you to practice your free will. Decide for yourself what is right, after all we have to live with ourselves and our own decisions.

Political parties, social clubs and other polarizing organizations constantly try and get us to think a certain way, vote a certain way and act certain ways. We do, however, have at any given moment the option to practice our free will. If we don’t agree with something, if we find our views changing or something doesn’t feel right, we can simply choose our own path.

Be brave as you step into the future, take that extra few moments to truly use your free will. It isn’t always easy to practice our free will but don’t ever let that fool you into thinking you do not have free will. After all our free will is a gift.

Our gift of free will can change the world. Cut through fear, peer pressure and indifference with your free will and you may discover something amazing. You may discover yourself, who you truly are.
