God’s One Voice Versus Our Many Voices
Transcript
oh can a few folks share with me what you want to talk about today okay hold on anybody else death and loss okay yeah good go ahead oh okay good that's good what oh very I thought you said fairies I'm like okay quite a variety um Liberation being grounded death
through loss Joy confidence movement from the past and I'm not naming them all but that's an example of what everybody's requesting and um we're going to go into our talk we won't do the mission statement today so you know the work that we do here I I just I I love the feeling of the work we're we're doing here and um and one of the most consistent questions that comes up although it wasn't specifically requested this time it's almost every Sunday people ask about guidance or a no no more of a
knowing of how to deal with life and we have such a a skewed and narrow view of life these beings that are made in God's image beam down into these bodies and zip them up and call it themselves and yet it's not us at all it's just a disguise it's this weird little thing we zip it up like this strange suit and you know pull in the the the the belt and tighten up the tie and do all these things that they're so constricting want to be asked about movement for example none of these things allow us to move
and be who we are why there is in in part one of the main reasons there's such a rampant mental illness in this world is because everybody's trying to be something they're not which is mental right I mean how can that not mess with your mind take a child an animal for that matter and keep trying to make it be something it isn't how could it not lose its mind so permission you know movement acceptance not just of start with the acceptance of who we're not except that you have foibles except that you have
idiosyncrasies except that you can't seem to make toast without burning it it doesn't so what what's the worst thing that can happen well you know what you'll get charcoal in your system and it's good it'll soak up toxins that's a good thing right what else have you got to complain about I'm not tall enough that's great you know it'll be cheaper on your casket I mean [Laughter] sorry hey I just Channel these things these are not my fault like like you know like just what to not
obsess all the time obsessing on this stuff acceptance acceptance that you didn't make it to that job the acceptance that you didn't make it into that college or whatever it is so what there's a Buddhist concept taking things out to their worst scenario and what have you got well if I don't do this this could happen you know my my car's not working because my car is not working I couldn't get uh often enough to pick the kids up on time and it wounded them now they grew up and they're they might grow up and they'll
they'll probably be failures it'll be my fault they won't be there to nurse me when I'm in my senior years geez like they're three like and you're already at the end game with this bizarre made up story but the Buddhists are telling you what's it for because if you can't change the problem the situation the crisis then why worry about it if you can't change it what are you gonna do Let It Go and if you can change it why worry about it change it but that's a brilliant rationale like
why what so what and I'm not saying to be careless in a hurtful way I'm not saying use this to enable the inner the the inner uh ego that is worthless I'm not saying don't get things done don't show up on time I'm just talking about worrying about these things I love that that word that one that was asked movement and it was asked in a couple of different ways and it's interesting because once one of you is asking about grounding and one movement they sound mutually exclusive but they're not
because it's like some people spoke about certain drug trips they would go on and there was a phrase they used which was always remain the witness never completely get lost in it know who you are experiencing something whether that's a drug trip which I do or don't endorse doesn't matter whether that's a drug drug trip or life because every day you walk out of your house and even before you walk out of your house you should know who you are be the witness of what you're doing as Edgar Casey put
it always watch self go by which means watch yourself what are you doing at any given moment that's actually groundedness being self-aware is grounding you're not up here kind of floating and never knowing where your feet are you know if people can walk in a room and say hi and it you jump every time that's not really grounded you know to be present and to be present some of us that are thinking that we're spiritual think that grounding is a form of constraining us it isn't grounding means you get to show
up and the more you show up fully the more you can be a full expression of not only yourself God not being grounded it's not floating in the ether's head in the clouds that makes you spiritual balance balance balance balance if you picture it like chakras think of chakras because they're so misunderstood but here's a great analogy think of yourself in this thing that you zip up and it creates Darkness because there's this beautiful light inside that wants to shine but it can't because this thing is
zipped around it's called a a mortal body now chakras are kind of like putting hole punching holes where the chakras are now if a person is in this body and they're a being of light but they've zipped it around it's dark now hole punching where the chakras go picture this as an as an arc technically would you think that it's more spiritual for these lights that should now be beaming out right pure light beaming out of any we're hole punched where there's a chakra would you imagine that that it would
look best if all of the lower ones were dim and the upper ones were bright or vice versa or every other one is bright every other one is dark just just on an elementary level you know that fully all the chakras beaming brightly and equally would probably make the most sense there you go balance don't allow misunderstood or misused spiritual studies convince you that upper chakras only are is the way to go there are a lot of indigenous tribes that would laugh at that notion they'd be like get in your body you know
ancient cultures they never tolerated that balance balance balance balance the king warrior magician and lover or the queen and the equivalent balance in the ancient temples when you said I want to be spiritual I want to be a master oh okay well welcome you know first we want vows of Silence what do you want what do you mean tonight but I don't want to be silent you're trying to control me shh well I'm not going to tolerate this get out so some self-discipline and then like the essenes they did sometimes a year of Silence
really amazing sect of people but then there was fasting oh I was really being spiritual until you brought up the fasting thing you know I don't know if I can do it I want a Butterfinger you know like you know just can't just stop and and sort of separate yourself from the ego so that you can be present you know so there's all these vows and in the ancient cultures oh my God you know you go to these Egyptian temples and other temples in you go and then this big Stone dork boom how long do you go before you go
I can't breathe I'm claustrophobic let me out like you fail and fail and fail in those days you're walking and you've got to know where you are because there's a pit of alligators so know your feet don't just go oh I just feel so spiritual being in this dark temple with a torch you know and everything's peachy no you know it's you got to be present if you don't hear there's sometimes in these temples that big guy swinging down on a court flailing a sword at your head and if you went oh I'm just so in the
eat there's whack and you have to try this in another lifetime this is how serious spirituality was taken Once Upon a Time there's no messing around well we may not have it to that level of seriousness that's let's call it external initiations but human beings you we will never be able to say not to take it serious at all in the sense that internally now more than externally take it seriously in other words show up live it don't take it serious in terms of judging yourself for every flaw failure I'm just saying you know
devote let's devote ourselves to something great to being what God created us to be and this consistent challenge there's this thing about Michael uh how do we know if it's God's voice or the ego's voice how do we know you know that kind of questioning how do we know and several of you are going through this a lot right now how do I know and it's interesting because first of all only God's voice is real that doesn't really help because I hear all these different guidances and voices and God's voice is real but okay
that didn't totally help me yeah okay and God is only love so when you're hearing guidance that feels like real love real love both it's probably God now don't get me wrong there are psychopaths that have killed people and said I Heard a Voice tell me that it's the most loving thing to do doesn't mean it's the right thing so we it doesn't guarantee but the problem is this mankind has forgotten to how to recognize what's real and what's loving we can through the ego because the ego
just keeps dressing up anywhere you go you can say I'm going through Sadness the ego will show up there and I know what you mean oh gosh you're really sad yeah sadness oh let's let's really sink into this sadness because this world is too hard for us just to ruin you and then you come out of that and go wait I'm not sad anymore I'm angry I know what you mean it'll just keep moving the voice of the ego will keep changing with the weather and with your moods why because it just wants to mess you up
constantly God's voice is consistent just love God never changes that now mind you believe in love could be multifaceted but it isn't multi-personality disorder disorder it's just love now the love might be patient today the love might be uh um generous today but it's love the ego it fully shifts anger and it'll even do false forms of love aren't we the most patient people we know person we know aren't we oh oh I'm there for you with agendas I mean so the ego doesn't just stay like
you where you say God is loving and ego is that's the tricky part that's another reason why we can't tell Love From Fear love from hate because the ego will dress up as false versions of love so we're really in a pickle because can can we say that we fully know love you know all we can say is you have to start somewhere we have to say look you know what I'm going to start living this life I'm only interested in one voice and it's the voice of love and this is very very practical only the voice of love
so if you hear and you think well when I hear an inner critic say you got an A on your test but you could have got an A plus maybe that sounds like the voice of Love well honey you know that you got an A good job but you could have gotten an A plus that could be construed as as love I mean your parents were sometimes psycho and always told you they loved you so that's confusing I don't know what love looks like I had a partner they said they loved me they cheated on me but they love me I'm confused I had Parents they said they
loved me and yet they always they always came first even when it looked like they made me come first really they came first you see when they were in a bad mood they took it out on me that means they came first so we're very confused about the program we could call the software of what love is because the ego has already hijacked it and corrupted the files so we have the ego gets to do all fear and hate-based things and all pseudo-love-based things and there's this one voice the voice of love that's just very consistent the ego
is not consistent at all other than it's consistently inconsistent it's consistently messed up it's consistently going after to mess up your life so we have to start somewhere instead of saying okay there's this technique now I always know the voice of God verses it's not going to be like that on Earth especially most thoughts are going to be going to be hijacked or attempted to be hijacked by the ego you can sit you can own meditate only on the word love the ego's sitting right there
going oh really you think you're just going to ignore me and you'll go no no no love love yeah everybody told me they love you they don't I don't really love you love you know you're gaining weight love it's not easy to just walk this but don't think don't think you can just ignore it you have to choose a few things you have to choose not to listen to it you have to choose to know that voices of fear and angst are not of interest to you you have to actually own that you have to see them
dissipate them choose to say I'm not interested set it aside we'll do this as a meditation in a moment set it aside then choose what you really want love so if you're walking through your house and you walk by a mirror and oh I'm getting older just stop for a moment that voice is not the voice of love I mean do you really need to be told that many people still do because there's so much confusion well maybe that is the voice of Love telling me I should take better care of myself that's
not the voice of love which will say wow look at you you're amazing not egotistically hey you're amazing it's not like some you know corrupt magic mirror and you know on the wall tell me who's the hottest you of course thank you that's not what I'm talking about it's interesting because almost all guidance related to you as a person your looks your emotional intellectual or physical statuses including finances whatever else almost anything that is form based is of the ego even if it's well I'm hearing a voice
that says I should lose weight and tone up and then I'll look and feel better it's still of the body you're not a body so it's still sneaking in it's still the ego sneaking in now I'm not saying well thanks Michael now now I'm not allowed to have any thoughts oh you know I'd like to have some breakfast but that's of the body so I'm not going to eat thanks Michael and you just shrivel away you know thanks now I'm now I'm just thinner within you know but I'm aware of
it thanks that helped you like that winner remember Buddha fasting fasting fasting and he just was so like emaciated just wow and then he comes out of this meditation one of the many insights that he shares and just goes it occurred to me as I was hearing this person play sitar that the strings can't be too loose they can't be too tight there's a there's a middle ground the middle ground there you go and he came out of meditation and said hey let's have lunches Apostles are like oh my God he's lost his mind he's gonna eat
let him speak and say thanks but not interested eat it doesn't matter he ate holistic Foods ayurvedic Foods he didn't eat the right you know doesn't matter in that moment he was enlightened in a sense so now any food he eats becomes lightened because you're in a state of light what matters is our state of consciousness so God's voice is almost always the one speaking to your consciousness ego is almost always relating everything to your physical emotional and mental health intellectual health
that's one way to know what voice you're hearing and it and it's it's hard to always have it down it doesn't matter just just relaxing and doing the best we can so when you walk through a room and a song comes on the radio and you're like singing along then you went oh wait a minute this is the song so and so and I shared back in high school and then they dumped me and you start going stop stop is that the voice of love well I don't know maybe no it isn't because if you could measure your
psychological spiritual health in that moment when you started going song history heartbreak and you could measure it it would not be high on the meter it would be like singing a song this is great great that's what would happen if you could see that and human beings with so much trauma so much layering so much numbing so many blocks we've forgotten to know how we feel some people will say by Michael Michael means my feel is your gut no it's higher than that deep in your heart there's a thing that can measure you're dropping
and you don't even know it some people think that a high is stimulus oriented like I feel great now that I told that person what I think of them that's stimulus that's not happiness both feel up but one is a high and a crash a hangover the other one is a high and it is high and it stays High because you're high in consciousness so it's obvious when we're generous when we're loving when we're patient when we're forgiving I mean there it is you can just tell I I can tell that I
feel holistically speaking I can tell that I feel up I feel alive I feel awake that's great and remember this when we talk about the voice of God Michael how can I learn to hear the voice of God the voice of the ego or or God you'll recognize in your thoughts if you're having a positive thought you're actually hearing the voice of God think about that forget about waiting for Michael Michael you know or your name I'll sue him no it was you your name is Sue how do you do so you know you you we mix it up the EGO is
going to always mess up what we're hearing but first your thoughts when you have a little thought about oh you know there's a new gray hair there's another wrinkle oh I'm I gained five pounds oh I I'm this or I lost my job I didn't get the raise whatever it is anything the car that you know you wish you had a different car any of it just stop and it becomes obvious I'm having thoughts that I don't like my car I'm saying to you that's actually the voice of your ego dominating your soul today
take it seriously enough not to down on yourself but take it seriously enough to see it and say with every thought comes Karma effects so if I'm having negative thoughts about my car I'm actually creating a a boomerang effect that's going to come back at me yes the obvious you could that car could break down then you're on the side of the road you know 120 degrees in Arizona somewhere and you're like petting it I'm sorry I didn't mean it and it's too late well you know oh money pod me you know you're
trying all these Quick Fix spiritual things and it isn't working and you're wondering why done okay it's sometimes it's it's done that thing's done it's better to catch ourselves so here's the tricky part we'll know that if you're physically or emotionally off that's not the voice of God that sent you off that's the karmic effects of something that you thought and when your thoughts are negative it's the karmic effect of what you believed in here so it's very important not to use these
things to beat yourself up but to use them to redirect you if I see in my thoughts or anything else any other places of evidence in this world if I see that something's showing me evidence that I'm off today I need to pause I can do that it's it's Choice it's free will I can pause and say there's something here that's showing me that I have not been on they're listening to the right voice the voice of God I'll know when that thing turns around we call it a miracle but really it's
very organic when I make the right voice when I allow the right voice to guide me I'm going to naturally feel great when I allow the ego's voice to guide me in any way I'm going to naturally spin off all of them however are signposts to learn from that's all they're like test results how am I doing today well I'm doing pretty good you know and I'm I'm really grateful that I'm doing good I'm not like him you just went off do you understand by thinking that person's off or that
person's even my thinking they're physically sick it's not my fault they had test results they are sick my belief that you are anything that whole then holy is actually not the voice of God well what do I do then I mean do I just pretend everything's peachy no everything is actually Peach you're not pretending just start aligning with that that everything is okay what if I align that I'm okay and I'm in a bed in a hospital and I pass away and I don't get healed when I started changing my
thinking you died with a right mind you're actually better off than living with a wrong mind get your act together get your mind together get your Consciousness in the right place I've said this before but one of the most consistent teachings amongst like from zarathustra to Jesus to Buddha lautsu one of the most consistent things you hear all of them say almost verbatim good thoughts good words Good Deeds stay in the god mind so in a sense it's like there's God's voice and there's our many
voices and that's multiple personality disorder I know there's a clinical thing called MPD but I'm saying everybody has it as soon as you think you're more than one with God you're in multiple personality disorder even if you only have two that's multiple but everybody's got more than two and three in ten and the egos just shifting with every mood because we identify with every mood we think that's us which is called multiple personality we identify with sadness we identify with anger
you may not like that you ident but we fully carry it we fully embody it I'm so mad and it's their fault and so on and so on I know that people act hurtfully I'm not saying pretend they didn't just identify that when you got mad at them for being hurtful that wasn't the voice of God don't hate yourself for it just see it wow wow this is interesting so I can sit here and not be ashamed that I absolutely loathe that person they're just so annoying yeah own it all I'm asking you to do is
add something they are annoying there's 50 different ways I can make a list here I'll type it up on a word doc that makes it real you know I'll carve it in in a cement and make it real this is the the 50 trespasses of my ex all I'm saying is for you to own it and say but that isn't the voice of God because it isn't and if it's not the voice of God let me go through a few steps this is not the thought I would have this is not the voice I want to hear it isn't not I wish I didn't have these thoughts
but alas they were so annoying they've got me stuck in this belief system of theirs no just just own yes they're annoying it's okay for you to be vicious about it for a moment but just ask and is is that the voice of God no is that the voice that's going to make you happy no start with that secondly that's not what I want to follow what I want to follow is the voice of love the voice of God choose to surrender that it doesn't matter if you can prove they're annoying you can get all the
neighbors to sign you know petitions and we all agree that one neighbor's annoying or whatever you're going to do your ex all your family members and their family members all agree they're annoying yeah we got it you are not going to be happy because the karmic effects I'm not saying you're bad I'm saying the karmic effects of having those thoughts you're actually listening to The Guiding voice of the ego or of fear or of hate and it brings with it karmic effects are you okay with that
yes okay knock yourself out with that cement slab preferably that you wrote all the person's trespasses on knock yourself out I'm not saying you're bad or wrong I'm just saying it will bring unhappiness there's no doubt about that cause has effect I insist on hating this person or being angry at their whatever the word would be and it's going to bring karmic effects doesn't matter how much you can justify it in fact there's worse Karma by me hooking on other people listen I want to confide with all of you that
I mean I don't mean to to upset your minds but I got this person in my life you know what they did and you're all sitting there going oh and you're such a nice guy and you're a spiritual teacher how dare them nice I've now hooked in thousands of people around the world into hating someone I'm gonna have the effects of that he who drags others into their quicksand is going to pay for all of them the all of their passage into hatesville and it's going to be lifetimes of paying for that
do I really want to keep that no what I'm what I mean to say when I say that I'm annoyed or whatever what I really mean to say is I'm upset and I don't know what to do about it that's that's all I can say because that's true I can't say that they're actually a bad person because that's not how God sees them and Only God is real and Only God is loving and love is God so anything else is going to be a deviation and untruth all I can really say is right now I just don't know how to get to the truth I
don't know how to get to love this this has upset me that's that's sincerity and it's bringing it to the altar it's humility we surrender it and ask to have it turned around because what you really want if you could snap your finger and totally feel love versus hate fear regret and revenge you would do it if people would do it but we've been programmed to no longer remember what love feels like true love the closest most human beings get is romantic love which is gonna just mess you up anyway
because romantic love is just all twisted it's all possessive and it's all it's so strange even if you love somebody with the deepest parts of what you think is your heart which it isn't but you know the deepest parts of your dysfunctional ego-based self um they're gonna die at some point someone's gonna die or leave or move and you're going to be heartbroken again that can't happen in real love real love it just it's a frequency it's not just an emotion it's not a human
emotion it's a frequency and when we're in that frequency we just feel immune and even that comes with an owner's manual in a sense because even with that this state of pure love like right now if I just wave my hand and granted everybody a state of pure love I guarantee many of you won't make it out the door with it and if you do you go to the grocery store and you something something's going to go Haywire there like you can just walk down the aisle carrying this oh I'm just in awe of love
and life oh my God somebody walks by you know and you're like hi and they're like did you see them they're hitting on me how inappropriate you know at the grocery store and you're not because you're glowing you know I mean God my first trip overseas on a sacred side strip I came back and it was I was just glowing I had gone to medjugoria the mother Mary's visitations there and sitting with the children talking to the one of the girls the kids that was having the visitations having a great
pyramid and all kinds of great things I came back and I'm glowing and people were just like knock it off well they were they were like you got the smile on your face who do you think you are and I was and I I'm a bit of a sensitive human being so that I took that to heart it kind of hurt to have this slap slap slap constantly and it kind of took me down several notches okay you know part of me stayed sane part of me just said my love is for those who can see it and those who can feel it if you don't fine
then don't you know I just chose to preserve some sanity around that topic but it it shouldn't happen that we get beat down when we're holding a space of love but this world is designed to do that so how can I stay sane God how do I stay connected to God following God's voice but but I don't I don't hear that I mean Moses didn't he hear like an actual voice Hey listen whether it's an actual auditory voice a feeling or whatever else just remember it's much simpler it's so simple but
human beings have forgotten to know real from false and Love From Fear so how are they going to know how to listen to God's voice honestly start Where You Are and listen you have to not just where's God's voice where's it meditation waiting waiting stop just walk through your house go through your life when you hear a voice that has some sense of intensity or judgment identify oh oh wait there's that moment that would not be God learn to identify what's not love and identify what is give thanks for every time you
identified love because when you heard felt thought love you actually heard the voice of God so somebody else could say oh I was in meditation or I have a friend who they said they meditated once they actually heard the voice of God don't make it like a rare once in a blue moon only two gurus in the Far East to hear God's voice every time any of us ever had a positive thought a thought of hopefulness Hope healing positivity that is the voice of God the ego though is going to make you think even that is not so so that you
never hear or feel or know anything let's start owning it every hope hopeful thought every moment of generosity that's the thought of God but that's the voice of God and I want to add you and I could sit now and say okay I got this talk this is wonderful I'm going to start kind of filing that was not a loving thought and that was a loving thought great the ones that are loving I give thanks what do you do with the ones that aren't see them for what they are give them up and replace them with the ones that are
do something with them don't hide them don't sweep them under the rug okay there's one of those that's not God it's so easy oh wait that would not be God you know well you are getting older whether I am or not not this isn't me the body's getting older great so now what well you know with that comes what wait a minute interrupt it wait a minute this is not love see it be a master and see it that that would not be love when you're driving down the street oh look at them that would not be love
D you know your teeth aren't bright enough that would not be love my kids they never amounted to anything I send them to college they still you know didn't amount to anything that would not be love right it's just see it and turn it surrender to God to the mother hey you know Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the store today God there I was driving just mining in my own business and then there was one of those kinds of people walking down the street how could I not notice them they're so annoying
whoever they are and that thing you know um and I caught myself that was not the voice of God coming through me identifying that person it can't be because God wouldn't say right at a human being so it wasn't so I'm wow giving this to you God help me to see everyone Through Your Eyes that's not going to happen automatically you have to choose it you don't die and become illuminated like some people think I can't wait you know when I die I'll become you're just going to be you again
a dead you you're just on the other side you're just the same annoying person without a body who's going to long for a body so that you can physically be annoying as well and you'll come back and incarnate again you're just still you if you don't know how to listen to The Voice of Love here you don't on the other side just get it you're shown it and even if you go oh now I get it the voice of love I thought he said the voice of a dove I I I missed that sorry they're not going to go oh well hey
everybody listen they got it now they're not gonna all go oh Namaste so wonderful they're going to be now must go back to Earth back to Earth you go and you gotta live it you gotta prove it if you don't live it embody it it's only a theory oh god you're kidding me okay so back you come and they'll say oh you were so excited what happened well the family you gave me this is too much you know never never your tests as intense as they can be for some more than others seemingly they're always within your ability to
turn this around the voice of love believe it or not learns to say yes to love and know to non-love which means if there are non-loving things happening in your life you're not supposed to go oh loving voices always yes no it isn't the loving voice can say no I don't care what it is no no not today I don't have to hate you to say no to you but I feel a lot of anxiety so that must not be the right voice that's because you're afraid of listening to love you're not feeling anxious because
saying no to your children was the wrong decision it's because you're afraid you're going to lose their love or something and in fact you're going to gain so that's where it becomes gray area not because it's truly Gray but because we're so programmed even viscerally neurologically programmed to be confused by this codependence the most rampant of all addictions codependence will keep us from knowing the right decision so sometimes you do have to step back let me breathe for a moment
let me breathe for a moment to know whether this was the right you know telling my kids no or partner know or whatever it happens to be after all I mean if I'm in a relationship let's say I have a business partner and the business partner stealing all the funds and I'm going broke because of that well I just need to forgive them and say yes they can keep doing that no no because it's enabling which continues more ego and more karma so I can say no well that but I don't know how to say no without I might have to get a lawyer get
a lawyer pray for a good one yeah pray for good get in there okay we can do this the easy way or the hard way you know just right in there on the Chariot like Krishna just shoot the arrows Let Them Fall where they may trust in God you know what a great imagery man Krishna just shoot the arrows leave it to God as to who's going to catch it you know um I just think but but that sounds strange and cold but there's a Brilliance to that he doesn't mean kill people and leave it to God he's saying you can't actually do anything to anyone
that isn't participating with that and I know that's a strange concept for some but again it's okay to say no especially if you're uncertain then own it say you know God I'm afraid of of being unloving by saying no to something I'm I'm afraid I feel anxiety talk to the mother let her hold you like you're a child let her hold you and love you and say honey I know but mommy I'm afraid I'm gonna it's kindergarten time I'm gonna go to school but I want to be with you am I letting you down you
see even then I'm anxious about leaving my mother for her and for me this is strange it's different that doesn't mean it's wrong to go to school but you're feeling anxious about it so surrender the anxiety and Mom can say actually we can make this into a beautiful thing how about we think of it as like you went to watch your favorite TV show except it's school so you went to school when your TV shows done what do you usually do I tell you what I watched today mommy great go to school tell me
what you watched today when you come back you see find a way to navigate these things instead of being so stringent on ourselves with these against ourselves if you see that your not making as much money this year you got more taxes or whatever we're all going to get tempted to spin off but remember is that a loving thought what does love have to do with accounting everything are you feeling love you can say well I cheat on my taxes because I don't think they deserve my money and you say but that that's not loving
or unloving that's that's this is a conversation about money in accounting no it's not loving because love is for all and love is trusting right so that means I can trust that if I pay taxes it doesn't matter I'm going to make three times what I gave them or whatever right so we get all twisted not know what direction to go we get so because because of these programs the voice of God is real and the voice of God is loving so real love love is only love is real and God is real real love follow that voice and and
recognize you know one of you asked about Liberation oh my God how is that not connected I want to feel Liberation you cannot feel liberation if your mind is imprisoned if your soul is imprisoned imprisoned how where resentment is a prison and some of you are hearing this going oh God he's one of those guys that says forgive those who all those people that horrendously harmed you I'm not telling you that flippantly forgiveness it goes through stages so don't think I just told you you know yeah resentment is a prison and you just
have to let it go when I know that you believe that this has been harmful what people have done to you I don't think it's right that people have done those things to you and I know it wasn't their God self that did it but you can choose to no longer be imprisoned with them in that cell that jail cell of of hatred they pass their Darkness to you anybody that's ever been hurtful to you has passed a certain amount of Darkness whether they were family members there's genetic Darkness whether they're
Partners their cellular Darkness shared intimacy intimately and so on even if it's just conversationally you get hooked into this sort of thing and and it could be in the grocery store or on the street on the freeway and and people are they're going to try to hook you because the ego wants major numbers of collateral damage it wants everybody to pay for this the parents arguing and the children pick that up right that's the ego's way God's way is just love so it's kind of like saying wait wait
instead of just Michael told me I'm supposed to forgive all the way you will forgive but the Forgiveness doesn't mean you're saying what they did is okay when I'm saying about what I'm speaking about when I say forgiving them or releasing resentment I'm talking about shifting your mind from because the ego can make you easily a victimizer or a victim the ego can move into any one of those two just because you're the victim doesn't mean you're holy and the victimizers are
bad guys either one of those is not love and I want love so I'm shifting today yes yes people did some harmful things to me or to you whomever got it and today I'm not going to make that go away I'm just going to say that is not love what they did and how I feel about it neither is love I'm going to give that to God and I'm going to choose love just that is enough to help you come to your own understandings about forgiveness and imprisonment by resentment you don't have to follow somebody else's rules
about resentments and releasing resentments it'll happen in your own time in your own way before you know it the first major thing you're going to experience is I don't feel as hooked by them or their behavior it's weird I didn't sit down and do any major releasing and forgiveness which is good to do but I didn't even do that and yet I don't feel that's a good sign you'll notice that when you think of that person you don't start getting like this weird nausea you don't get your shoulders don't
shrink up to your ears in tension it's like wait a second I was sitting with some friends today and I was telling them about this for some reason something came up with my mom and I realized I went through that conversation like it was nothing I used to not be able to speak about that woman you see there's a shift the power has returned your Consciousness has come back because when we're resentful our Consciousness is put on hold pause and sleep mode and our head starts running the show okay our head controlled by the ego
starts running the show oh my God I'm back I see things differently I feel things dear everything starts to shift it's really really beautiful but this too shall pass the resentments the hurts the pains take it a day at a time but I am saying don't just wait for it it will not happen on its own It Is by our efforts and every time you can be an example of that you're teaching only love honestly when I'm saying start watching start watching yourself just notice when that wasn't a very loving thought
and there's lots of them tens or hundreds of thousands per day don't worry about how many the holy spirit will start lassoing and clustering them and releasing them in groups because it's so efficient it won't be like okay Michael's at a hundred thousand are you serious a hundred thousand times today I'm supposed to go there you are got it God Holiness oh you know um which will look weird to people in a grocery store oh you know oh look you know sugar Frosted Flakes oh the calories wait I'm
negative thought wait God I can eat anything let me go to the hummus aisle you know um no you know it's it just start the day with a commitment and I am serious about that part make a commitment to not listening to the voices of fear hate resentment Etc don't think they're three a day they're all through the day but God's voice is also speaking to me all through the day I'm just not hearing it do you know why because I'm not choosing to hear it and it's not going to be as easy to
choose the voice of God if you don't choose not the other one which some people don't understand we have to grow up for example you go to a a personal coach they don't just say start lifting these weights if you want to tone up and do those kinds of things they're going to also tell you what not to do if you're going to a chiropractor and your backs missed them they can just keep adjusting it but they might also tell you to change your posture right there's that there's things you must
stop doing and the best way to to choose to stop doing it is to see that it's not serving you you can't just I need to stop stop stop bad bad no wait a minute rational thinking as Buddha puts it as Jesus puts it in teachings rational mind that is not helpful that thing that guidance that voice that thought is not helpful that is actually judging myself or judging someone else it's always judging someone else or ourselves I see it that is not the voice not only am I not choosing that voice because it's not happiness
I'm also choosing against it goodbye don't fight it just see it and choose to see it is valueless to you and give it up don't think of it as an evil enemy valueless worthless give it to God what would I like instead the voice of love and just let that call it in and give thanks be done the voice of love you don't have to sit and wait for it just call it in because you might only have seconds in the day to do this but just call it in you'll be beautifully surprised how an hour later for no reason whatsoever you feel
tranquility a day and a half later you feel a peace that surpasses understanding those things don't just get tossed on you from the heavens they have to be chosen you want to feel peace you want to feel self-worth stop allowing the voice to the contrary and choose the one that is what you said you wanted some people will say don't even focus on the ones you don't want that's not true you have to choose against them and retire them because you created them they are your voices you have to uncreate them release them
that's the full creation process choose no to something choose yes to something new okay please take a few centering breaths I am on the inhale relaxed on the exhale [Music] foreign [Music] with an inhalation
tighten up all the muscles in the body exhaling every muscle decompressed do that three times try to notice muscles that you didn't notice when you do 10 new back muscles muscles around the ribs muscles and the shoulders the neck the feet find those tense them up recognizing that's not what you choose and exhaling foreign objectively looking over the day the week the month the year just whatever's coming to mind
just looking over your life and try to see if you can recognize any moments that were the voice of God remember thoughts our voices any time when you had a negative or positive in this case we're going to start with the positives learn to see the positives or negative voices so there are any times in your life when they were positive voices [Music] meaning positive thoughts where you let yourself off the hook for something you decided not to be so harsh on yourself or someone else thoughts of generosity [Music]
you gave your time to help you served others in some way you supported or complimented someone [Music] place that you gave hopefulness to people but this isn't just about good job this is can you say that was the voice of God coming through me try that on for size that was actually the voice of God when I told someone that I knew they would they would be okay with that situation they were going through everything will be all right that wasn't me that wasn't just me trying to be positive for them it was the voice of God
and identify that in your heart and soul that was owning in your heart that was the voice of God are you okay with that do you feel selfish or or negative thoughts about owning that some people do can you just go oh my God I was being a Channel of the voice of God not just because of my positive words I had to have chosen to be in a positive god-like mindset wow and let it kind of unravel inside of you like a Time released capsule it breaks open and you you're owning it those weren't just good moments that was
the voice of God [Music] foreign the voice of love give thanks that you listened and channeled that and made it a difference in someone's life just sit in it's not as selfishness it's just sitting in the vibe of gratitude I am very grateful that my mind was open to receiving and sharing that thought slash voice of God or of love and then looking into our world any time whether it was one time
dramatically or a pattern of times with certain people certain types of people or a certain person where you had negative thoughts including on yourself just sit and look at your life where have I had negative thoughts selfish thoughts hurtful thoughts resentful thoughts judgmental thoughts whatever the case even fears are negative thoughts [Music] look at where those may have taken place don't forget a moment ago you knew what God looked like or felt like now look at the contrast look at what your thoughts
if you verbalized all negative thoughts about yourself or others imagine it as a frequency let's go there for just a moment what if your negative thoughts even one here and there look at the frequency look what it does to the animals around you [Music] animals can smell other animals in your system that you've eaten they also can sense your thoughts and your emotions when you're in the negative thoughts what are those animals feeling what are children feeling what are babies absorbing by being in the same room
with this person that has such thoughts that is not love no need to react just see it it's not love foreign the birds fly to get away from you because they sense something to be afraid of children reach for their mother because there's something they see there when we're being unloving people's auras constrict our own spiritual centers tend to shut down as do the glands they're related to the negative thoughts but also there is an inner child in everyone why would you want to do that to a child
that's in you negative thoughts well this is just a small negative thought it doesn't matter it all matters so see it make a conscious decision of what you're going to do with this you're you're having thoughts that are not God not love and not serving you so take a moment do that first is not a loving thought this is not serving me recognize what you are not and what you choose not [Music] step two [Music] say to yourself I desire to hear only [Music] God's loving voice I choose only to hear God's loving voice
and no other there's no interest and no value in other voices [Music] [Music] again ask yourself anytime these thoughts come is that loving try it as an experiment with any thoughts you've had the last week or month wait is that loving even on your way your drive into town is that loving no matter how Justified you think it is it's not the point is that loving now I know there's a difference between the loving and non-loving voices [Music] can I really recognize I'm going to commit to practicing this
is that loving [Music] for one more moment sit and look at one or more just let them all group together all of my unloving thoughts throughout my life and lifetimes not just today all of my unloving thoughts and even if you have just one come up try saying something along these lines this voice is not loving and therefore it is not of God therefore it's not real therefore I have no interest in it so I Surrender these thoughts too
my loving God [Music] and I choose God's voice instead and every time we do that which could take seconds every time we do that remember give thanks give thanks you accomplished it I'm giving thanks that I spotted what isn't love I'm giving thanks that I now own that I want love I'm giving thanks that I'm starting to choose that love and that I surrendered all else but I'll add this when you give thanks try to give thanks with elation yes get it get it in Elation but also oh my God I spotted this I gave it up
I'm calling in the presence of God and God's voice and with that comes good karmic effects there is Good Karma that comes with me making right choices listening to the right voice it's not just gifts from heaven like like Santa Claus I receive all kinds of good because my Consciousness Rises every time I choose to hear the voice of love this is going to make me more prosperous healthier happier be excited that that's where you're going foreign ly listening to the voice of God this is what I've
been needing to learn all along and here it is God's voice and no other the multiple voices of the ego what's nothing but your destruction the one voice of God wants nothing but your salvation foreign [Music] I give thanks that in this moment I'm learning and now committed to following the voice of love and one more step being the voice of love for others I will listen to that voice for me but I will become the manifestation of that Voice through as an example for others Hallelujah foreign [Music]
hearing the voice of God to become the voice of God yeah yes thank you we're going to do our closing prayer I want to thank all of you for being with us you know and all the support you guys give us by being here by watching by telling friends about the programs you like you know and all that and and your financial donations and we greatly appreciate it please remember and I know it sounds like a strange thing to hear from somebody we're supposed to say you know tell your friends again I'm not interested I
I I would like you simply to practice being intuitive enough to know who you might tell about this sort of thing you know who you might introduce to our programs you follow like I'm not interested in numbers I want quality so I love you know some people go and tell everybody you know and um they end up with a lot of strife because they're going and telling their friends that are this and background of this and and those people just start pounding on them with oh no that's that's you know he doesn't quote the Bible enough or
whatever their thing is and it's like yeah you know the more you get on my case the less I'm going to quote the Bible it's like um because Thou shalt you know um judge and ye shall be judged so there's one for you um so just just you know um I I believe in that like like when people say I'm gonna tell my about you no listen don't need it I'm just doing my work we're just doing our thing and when someone feels like they're open I'm not at all the type to convert to people at all
you know at all if I were dating someone and they were like well I'm 90 into this relationship 10 I'm go I'm I'm not I'm not the type that wants to convert people or talk someone into liking me or whatever I I like to just be and just share this and so if you into it that someone might resonate that's a good thing you share it with them and it's a good thing for you to watch because if you do that with 10 people and nine of them will never speak to you again you might want to work on your intuition
you know think about it you know yeah not having a great track record here and that's how I am I do not walk around and tell people to check out certain books being insensitive to where they're at it's really important to be sensitive to where they're at it's not righteous for you to convert a Christian into Buddhism or vice versa it's like what are you doing so you know just being that example as best you can but thank you um we're going to take up our collection we ask you simply to be as generous as
you can be we greatly appreciate it and those of you who who you know travel and have traveled great distances I mean the people that are consistently coming locals I I love that it's just great because we're part of this community but there's also those who travel great distance and you feel a call and you fill a resonance and you come here and you share with us bless you and you know it really means a lot to me that something in you trusted enough um but it's not in Michael it's in something that we're co-creating and
it's to me it's all about anchoring the presence of God and that's a good thing for you if you never watch me or our programs again but you walk closer to God because of something you heard mission accomplished okay so your love offerings please just breathing into that the prayer is on your bulletins as well as posted online together please Divine love flowing through me blesses and multiplies all that I am all that I have all that I give and all that I receive and so it is thank you while they're passing those around
a couple of quick announcements remember we have our chaplain circle after the service so if a person's interested in receiving a healing they can do that or you can the folks that are passing the baskets around typically they're uh chaplains you can ask one of them to sit with you and pray with you or counsel with you briefly um also um we have the crystal bad sessions in the healing room outside here so if a person's interested if you're especially if you're visiting the area you might want to take advantage of that you can
talk to the admins in the office or the bookstore and um our bookstore I'm really appreciative I haven't said this in a long time but I really appreciate that uh the board supports the idea of keeping everything probably on average 30 percent less expensive than shopping elsewhere it's not to say don't shop elsewhere absolutely you know if you're called to buy something buy it wherever you find it but I'm just saying we don't have the taxes because of our non-profit status but also we tend to try to price
things as reasonably as possible and if you're watching us on social media and whatever other formats you know try to spread it out a little don't just watch us on YouTube get on our mailing list as well or if you're watching us on Facebook live also check out our YouTube library because we have hundreds of videos there and they're in playlists so it can help you kind of go and slide into a certain topic if you'd like um and um remember to try to arrive five or ten minutes before service those of
you who attend locally um because that's the best part of the service that the people online cannot experience just kidding it's usually just local announcements that we do during that time but it's also uh sometimes a song that we'll play um all right so let's see I think that was it for all the announcements um let me ask you just briefly can anybody share what you learned or heard today that made the most sense or what you gained most out of yester yeah here that is your thoughts and experiences that is the voice of God if
it's loving you were listening to the voice of God if it wasn't you weren't simple yes being confident and gaining gaining confidence by listening to the voice of love this is so practical I love this yes being and becoming the embodiment of the voice of God yes letting go of the ego you you don't just wish it were gone the ego you you choose to say I see you and I have no interest you don't hate it you retire it for lack of work like there's just nothing here yeah but yeah and buy like no resistance no hate yes
yeah no need to overthink your grocery choices nice in the back yeah thank you yeah a dirty dimensional 3D World we have to have to buy but we have to remember that higher thoughts right incredible part of ourselves right right consciously but allow it to capitalize of others whether we see them right so repeat it once more but leave off the Michael said say it again without the beginning that Michael said that you liked Michael said just say it as a truth start there start with we
did you get that so he just said we are not a body see now is that true or not true is it true because Michael said no so that's why I had him slice off the part about Michael's it's all of you all of us say things as the truth now I don't mean beat people up with her or or preach it to them I'm saying own it it's the truth so what he said is just like pure truth we are not bodies and then everything else he added to that we're not bodies we aren't we're wearing them temporarily but
that's where the ego will make you think even those temporary Things become you that it sows in permanently stitches itself permanently to us no I am not a body I am free for I remain as God created me yes this is something I've heard here before and I believe that it's not a voice for God or love then that's a cry out for it if it's not the voice of love it's beautifully said and ironic in a way if it's not the voice of love it is a voice crying for love so what should you do in such instances
I guess I'm gonna it's a cry for love which is kind of funny I don't think you should say that to the people crying for love you know honey the way you've been treating me lately is clearly a cry for love I don't think you should I think you have to be stealthy I do you know stealthy yes in the back love always the safest way to go I mean it's God and it's it's consistent it can vary in the sense of Peace Joy but it's always love the ego's just flipping jumping to every mood you go into it
makes you that mood and then beat you up in that space and it just keeps everybody so fragmented that's why we call it the difference between dismembering to remembering pulling ourselves back together yes yes hi it does um Embrace like sadness right but yes it's like it's like compassion it's you're holding a space for a person at what level they're at just this is where they're at and it is a cry for love my mind receives these experiences Witnesses these things that people do hurtful and whatever and it comes
towards us and we can go and react to it which makes it real seemingly real it now is real for us you're you're humiliating me now I'm humiliated that's what that does when you're trying to humiliate me and it's not going to happen that's a different answer isn't it why is it not going to happen am I not speaking loud enough to humiliate you no because it's not here you said I'm but that's not the truth of God right it's just not the truth so these things they just we said this a couple
weeks ago and a lot of you seem to enjoy it the arrows come and they turn into rose petals as and they shower upon us they don't they don't find a home and which is partly what Krishna was saying let the Arrows fly you know do everything with love but he was also adding to that whole story say no to hurtful behaviors there was an invading tribe and he said all right let's say no to them you know and Arjuna his sidekick was trying to project the whole thing about you know but that's wrong we're
spiritual and Krishna was saying doing what you think is needed and what the next right thing is is spiritual talking spirituality is not spirituality they're coming in they're wiping everybody out we're going to say no to them that's important to learn to be able to say no is an act of love please stand for our closing prayer ah how was your meditation were you able to do it you see some where you were listening to the voice of God right can you ramp it up instead of oh that was a nice thought the voice of
God like wow that's not any small thing you were being Moses and any other great being who listened to the voice of God you may or may not go out and write the Dao de Ching or you know A Course in Miracles that's not the point you're being a beautiful Channel when you do that but remember those other voices own that's not an accident that is the voice of the ego and I could choose to listen to it and I usually do I notice that I've often done it but not anymore I see it surrender it replace it
the light of God surrounds us the love of God unfolds us we are the love of God the power of God protects us the presence of God watches over us wherever we go God is I am we are and so it is amen peace be with you all thank you
