I recently saw this cartoon on the Buddhist Humor 2.0 Facebook Group, and I literally laughed out loud! It resonates so much because it’s true. While we may be wondering, “Where’s Waldo?,” we also have to keep in mind that he’s just another face in the crowd searching for himself … as we all are.
No matter how long I’ve been involved in the study of spiritual truths and no matter how much wisdom I may have ve absorbed, there’s always more to learn. And the more I learn, the more I realize that it’s all about understanding who we truly are … and that has nothing to do with what we see in the mirror staring back at us!
The Council of Love defines wisdom as the “understanding of the Divine Plan,” “the unfoldment of each thing and being’s place within that Plan,” and “is the bedrock understanding that we are all One.” Ultimately, it “is the ability to comprehend the difference between believing, thinking, and knowing.” [1] What we believe to be true about the world is nothing more than a mental construct we’ve created to frame it. That is, what we see out there is a reflection of what we believe within ourselves and ABOUT ourselves. This is the truth behind the Universal Law of As Within-So Without.
And, more often than not, that internal mental construct and belief system is that we are separate from all others. But, if we are all One, then that belief cannot be true!
The search for the Divine Plan is a journey that starts within ourselves, but it also ends within ourselves. Every spiritual seeker who is searching for God in the external world ultimately finds that treasure within his/her own heart, at which point As Within-So Without/As Above-So Below becomes real. If you want to change the world, then change your thoughts about the world, knowing that YOU ARE THE DIVINITY YOU ARE SEARCHING FOR!
[The Infinity Keys Workshop Series, starting on 29 Aug 2026, will focus heavily on this notion of being able to discern what we believe and think from what we know as immutable truth. Please check out the website for the workshop series to learn more.]

[1] Sacred Inspiration Card #26, Wisdom, from El Morya, channeled by Linda Dillon, channel for the Council of Love.
Mary Magdalen: Group Channeling Session , July 18, 2026
Channeled & transcribed by Jennifer Donaldson
So this is Jennifer channeling Mary Magdalene. She sometimes opens my eyes and looks around. The Ascended Masters love to make eye contact. The eyes are the windows to the soul, and you can sometimes see the energy of this. It’s a little like nesting. She’s nesting a little bit within me, and then she’ll slip out later. She lets me know, or they let me know that they’re ready, that they’ve come down the funnel and into my heart when when they say we’re ready whenever you are, and I’m like, I’m not ready yet. No, but they usually say they’re ready, and they also tend to squeeze my energy. I feel like a sponge, like they just, you know, squeezed me, and and then let me go. Sometimes you’ll see my face squinches up. People have different things. Some channels never do anything like that, but that’s what happens to me. And after that, I think I look pretty normal.
So I’m centering. Centering, settling into my heart, posting the archangels: Mikhail, Raphael, Uriel, Yophael, and Gabrielle…[said three times.] We post them at each wall in each direction, and then on the ceiling. We have Mother Earth beneath us. So now, we are in a sacred space. Not only the love that brings us together, also makes this space sacred to me, makes it holy, but also our intention to come together to learn about our spirits, to learn about God, about love, about what it’s all about. So that intention is also, to me, a very sacred thing.
I usually give my ego a small playful task, so that he-I call my ego a he for some reason. He’s kind of a pest -LOL… doesn’t always make my life easier. I give him something to do, and I’m gonna ask him to play with the paper cups …see if he can do something with that.
I’m asking Mary Magdalene, “Maggie,” if she’s here, and she says “Indeed.” Just give me another sec, and I’ll switch. I’ll sit back and let her talk with you. They like to make me laugh because it helps me helps my vibration get higher. They’re all standing around me like Zulu warriors, Divine Mother, Divine Father, Yeshua and Mary, and they’re [pounding the ground with staves] going bung, bung, bung, bung— with respect. We got a Halloween thing going…
They’re just being playful. They’re just being wonderful. It’s interesting. While I’m just waiting for it to start, I’m seeing them dressed as Aztec warriors, also from different lands, from different places, all over the world, and not the warriors who cause wars, but the warriors who are protective, the warriors who are essentially healers. The original intention of the sword was to heal a wand of healing, and it gradually became consigned to misunderstanding. …[pause]…
Mary Magdalen: Greetings. I am Mary Magdalene. I am grateful to be invited into your presence, into this moment, in this opportunity, I’m grateful for your curiosity, your trust, your love, your willingness to explore. I am also grateful for the chance to speak with you in voice. There are many who have written with me, and we have brought forward a new body of teaching about the sacred feminine, the divine feminine.
You are at a time in your world’s history where there is a rebalance happening, where the male-dominated society is coming back into balance with the inner knowings of the more feminine path, with the social nurturance of one another, which is common to the divine feminine. We do not leave anyone behind. We look out for each other. We make sure everyone is cared for and everyone is valued. There are many values such as these that have been traditionally the work of the women of the tribe, the women of the village, of the society.
And it was the masculine, the men’s role to not only protect but also to defend, and as your belief in separation from God the Father — Divine Mother-Divine Father-One —became more prevalent over your centuries, your belief in separation from one another, became expressed through antagonism, conflict, competition, and such like, so that there was the need for the protection, and there was the need for the weaponry, or so you believed.
Now that you are coming back into balance with the divine masculine-divine feminine within yourselves, and expressed within your world, you will find that it is time for you to lay down the weapons, and time for you to make peace with one another, and you are learning this. You are learning conflict resolution. You are learning to respect one another’s differences.
This is not immediate. It is not easy for everyone, but it is what your world is learning at this time. There are remnants and pockets still of conflict, and we know this gives your hearts great pain to see this continue.
You have been told through various channels and prophets, prophecies, and even works of fiction that your world is moving toward a more enlightened time, when you will begin to restore the harmony that you all long for, and you will begin to restore the kindness and the charity toward one another, the caring for one another that you all long for, the strong communities that you have, many of you lost, you have taken this almost as far as it can go. You have divided from your children. You have divided in your families. There is estrangement left, right, and center.
There are these expressions of separation which have been taken to the extreme, and warfare, certainly an extreme. But now that you have had that experience, as a world, you are clearer, and more adamant, and more passionate —that this is not the direction you want to continue in, and that you wish to bring people together, you wish to find solutions for all of the problems in this life, and you will.
You will. But this is largely why there are gatherings of those who are beginning to explore Oneness, explore the idea of a non-denominational, sacred, holy balance. There is the divine masculine and the divine feminine. Some of you love the image of God the Father, or God the Mother, and some of you would rather be —such as the Buddhist path— would rather be a little more impersonal and think of it as energy, think of it as truth, think of it as The Way, the path, the light. You see?
So your expressions of your way forward are beginning to be expressed as well, expressions expressed. Yes, Jennifer’s going, “That’s not very creative.” LOL. Your expressions of intention and vision for your future are becoming more balanced, are becoming inclusive. And this is why there are many who are perfectly comfortable with a young one deciding that they would be more comfortable in the other gender. It is different. Nobody knew what to say when it was first happening, but it is becoming: “Well, I’m not going to tell you what to do.” You see?
Part 2 of this Group Channeling Session will be posted next week.
This is the topic for this months’ open conversation with our team on zoom. Go any experience or understandings on this one? We welcome you! Questions invited. We’ll discuss the highest perspective we have access to, along with sharing our wisdom, affection, compassion and sheer friendliness:-)))
Consider joining us this month, on Saturday August 15th, from 11 am – 12 noon Eastern (New York) Time.
This month we will be followed by our friends, Martin, Tomas and Simone (COL pals tuning in from L. A, Prague and Germany) who will be leading a Conscious Creation session, if any have the call to create the New World in a loving small group. we will announce the link.
Here’s a little more about the Conscious Creation offering:
Conscious Creation: Visioning the New Earth Together — by Martin Bodogne
Please join us this month as we continue aligning with the Divine Mother, Father, the Archangels, and our Star Family – Saturday, Aug. 15 at 12 noon Eastern Time, immediately following Spirit Café. We are so grateful to have Council of Love teacher Monica Severo join us to share her own courageous healing journey. The topic for Spirit Café is Self Healing, which will lead nicely into our Webinar, where we will go even deeper into our physical, emotional, mental and etheric bodies, for healing, transmutation, and transformation! This is a 60 minute, free web event. We hope to see you all again soon, and THANK YOU for your passion, love and vision. xxx Martin, Simone and Tomas.
Rob: Well, Humphries, thank you for joining me. It’s been a while, as you know. I keep coming back to these thoughts about what it is that I should be doing. Should I be doing something that I’m not? Seems life is so busy now, and I don’t have a lot of time to spend pursuing spiritual topics, and I know that’s temporary, but that’s where we are, so do you have anything to share?
Humphries: Greetings, Rob, my brother. We meet again in this way, although as you well know, we are never not connected. But in this way, being a more overt communication, is fun, is it not?
So your question about whether there’s anything that you should be doing that you are not, I would suggest that you are doing more than enough. You pursue the things you are moved to pursue. You recognize when you are receiving messages. You write them down. You mull them over. You decide how they fit in. This is all anyone asks. You are listening, you are heeding the messages, and that is enough.
There is a notion that this time period of this transition in which humanity finds itself is a time of resurgence of the Divine Feminine. That is true, for the world has been out of balance [between the] masculine and feminine in this way for a very long time, so it is a time of return to balance. But I am here to tell you that does not mean that the feminine will become dominant. It is true; the masculine has overpowered, has taken over the functioning of society to a far greater degree than was originally planned. It has become out of balance.
But do not allow, within yourself, that the masculine be lost. The masculine is that unspoken power behind the movement of all things. Yes, the feminine may be the nurturing aspect, the receiving, and even to a greater extent upcoming, the envisioning of what society must become once again, but the power behind that, the strength to build, to see that come to fruition, in manifestation, is the masculine.
Just hold that power. I called it the unspoken power, but that does not mean it is unexpressed. It is always there. It is always being expressed, that power of creation. So whether you feel you are doing something overtly or not, that power is still being expressed, that strength. People see that. People feel that. You then become a symbol of that strength, and this gives them the strength and the fortitude and the perseverance to actually create what it is that they want to see in the world.
Rob Loveland and I have been creating an expanded version of his original work on unlocking the way forward to the New Era on Earth. Many of us long for this new stage, but are looking for a guide, or simple teaching to help us move beyond our blocks – our fears, doubts, skepticism, loss of hope – you know.
NOW. Inspired and infinitely wise, this ascension path has been opened to You. The keys to the castle have been found. Seek no further!
However… the game of life on this planet requires that you each have your own set of keys.
Each of us has to decide to evolve, since it’s a free-will universe, or we will be left to continue at our own pace, even doing “not much,” as long as we like. Eventually, we get bored of digging the same holes over and over — just to jump in and climb out again! Then we decide to move on, to evolve to the next stage.
That is what is happening on the planet. In a massive wave of consciousness, we are all reaching for the keys. More and more students of spiritual growth are saying Yes, moving with the energetic Flow, choosing Love, finding inner peace, and (Yes) even Happiness! Once considered a chimera — always a little farther out — many students of truth are discovering that happiness lives inside all of us, that we carry that potential always, and were just looking in the wrong places!
In 2023, Rob wrote the The Infinity Keys BOOK to explain the components to building a base for inner peace. This was a huge act of love for the world– thank you, Rob.
Once the base is constructed, we can build on it! Much like the platform for a beautiful tent, one can then furnish and inhabit the space and begin to live the dynamic system of Infinite Happiness, which is not static, and not elusive. It is alive – made of Living LIFE itself. We are doing this now, ourselves, as our Selves, one moment at a time.
Time becomes irrelevant, it’s all about the dynamic.
Now for the first time in history (his story), Rob will guide a small group through this living process, until you see how to apply this dynamic to your own moments, your own lives. And we will do this together — I am honored to help.
Pretty soon you will feel more capable, more tuned in to your own peaceful awareness, and then the flourishing begins!! That is Happiness: Your Joyful Flourishing!
We invite YOU to join us in practicing this amazing new system of The Infinity Keys with us. Unlock the Doors of Doubt and Reveal to yourself that we are all in this amazing game together- then, Let Us Choose Joy!
& DON’T MISS THIS:
An Introduction to the Infinity Keys Workshop Webinar will be offered on August 8th, including some surprises and a valuable discount:

— written by Jennifer Joy Donaldson, spiritual coach, teacher and channel, and co-teacher with Rob Loveland of the fascinating new system:Infinity Keys
Rob: I’m looking to meet Quan Yin to talk about how to love and serve without judgment. Is she going to come in on the dragon or on the lotus?! [Laughs]
Teammate: She’s driving. 😉
Rob: Yeah, she’s driving. There you go. It’s the dragon. Although in three-dimensional flying space, I don’t know that you could cut off other drivers. 🤣
Quan Yin: Hello, all. This is Quan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion.
So it is good that you are all laughing about what you see as your own limitations, and I will say, Rob, the fact that you are looking at your own behavior and recognize that perhaps there is a better way to behave, that there is a better attitude you can have about what it is that you see around you, this is a sign of your progress, of your advancement. You are, in fact, making progress.
Self-examination is the highest form, the most advanced form, of practice that you can do. At the end of the day, if you are honest with yourself, you will see that there is a better way.
So you often joke around with your teammates that driving in traffic is the one thing that drives you crazy more than anything else. But you are asking, why is that? Why do you allow something as mundane as driving on the roadway from one place to another to disturb your peace to such a degree that you actually get upset by it, by the actions of others?
But I need not remind you. No one on the road is doing anything to upset Rob. They’re just going to whatever their destination is, in the only way that they know how. The fact that you get upset by it is a reflection of what is within YOU. It’s your own interpretation of their actions, a projection of your own feelings on their behavior. It has nothing to do with them.
It may be true that they are acting from a place of less maturity, as you called it, a place of, perhaps, even selfishness. But that has nothing to do with you. That is within them. That is their own issue to work out. That is their own state of progress on THEIR journey. Why, in any way, would that upset you?
So your question at the beginning is how to love and to serve without judgment. When you project those kind of ill-intents on others and their actions, that is a form of judgment that is purely based on your own beliefs and your own way of thinking. The first part of [your question] is the key: to just love them, and serve them, so that you are not disturbed by how they behave.
You may watch what they do and think there is a better way. Just love them for where they are. Serve them in any way that you can. And while you are driving on the road, that act of service need be nothing more than you simply allowing them to be who they are and where they are in their journey, not letting it upset you in any way.
Some may think that not reacting to anything that you see in the world, [actions] that generally upset folk in society, is an act of not showing any compassion whatsoever. But I would suggest that the exact opposite is true. The most compassionate thing that you can do for another is to allow them to be, to allow them to progress in their own journey. It is their choice how they go through life, and it is all for a purpose. It is all for a reason, and it is their chosen way.
So the most compassionate thing you can do is allow them to be who they’re going to be, how they are going to be, and simply love them for where they are. READ MORE …
Rob: So I’m just envisioning Archangel Uriel in front of me – a lot of white light, silver, platinum-looking, very shiny.
So I haven’t channeled you, Uriel, in quite some time. In thinking about what it is I should ask about, the phrase. “release the old” just jumped out at me. So, do you have any wisdom to share on that topic?
AA Uriel: Greetings, all. This is Uriel. It is always such a pleasure to be with you in this way, to converse with you in this way.
Your question, your topic of releasing the old, it is that time. We are sending you this message that, as you’ve completed your series on the Infinity Keys, it’s now time to think about the transition to something new. And, of course, that involves the release of that which no longer serves.
You were discussing with your teammates previously what it means to experience Heaven on Earth, and yes, that is largely based on your beliefs, your attitudes, your approach to life, and all experiences that you’ve chosen to have, to find that state of internal peace and happiness. But think about your life, all that you see around you, your day-to-day life, and start thinking about what does this look like, this particular aspect of society or family relationships, what does that look like from the perspective of Heaven on Earth?
Can you look around and see that virtually everything around you is based, to some degree, in old thinking, in thinking that is not born from the feelings of love, unconditional love, for everything? You see so much turmoil in your world. Most all of which is created from a sense of separation, one from another.
Start viewing life from the perspective of how would this operate when we DON’T believe in such separation, the false belief in that separation and isolation that you are not alone, that you are, in fact, one with all that is, not just in substance, but even in how you think, how you approach life. Would your societal structures remain the same, or would they change, perhaps even in radical ways.
Take, for instance, the obvious one that is causing so much separation in society these days: this whole notion of one political party being against another. How would that look from the perspective of Unity Consciousness? Would there even be political parties? What does the governance structure look like if there are no such political parties? It is time to release that old thinking and start envisioning something new and better.
How would the production of any of your consumables, including your food, how would that look? How would that operate from the perspective of Unity Consciousness, that you are, in fact, one with the nature that produces that food for you? How much more healthy would that be? How much more in tune would you be with your own environment?
What does society look like when there are far fewer, if any, who are trying to exert power over others, where that is no longer a desired outcome? How would society change? How would you take care of each other? Would everyone naturally be taken care of far more than they are today?
Again, it is time to release the old thinking [and] release the old structures. All will change ultimately. Yes, it will take quite some time, as you reckon time, for these transitions to occur. But at the end of the day, it will all change.
Hi All… We have gained many wonderful new friends from our webinars, our clients, our channeling and the many Council of Love events over the years… and we enjoy connecting on FaceBook, but the best opportunity to engage in real conversation together, with you, is on Spirit Cafe!
We appreciate all who attend, and it feels so cohesive sharing our heartfelt perceptions about what it feels like to flow with the new energies. Often we celebrate the good news of lighter happenings and feeling brighter and more full of fun. Sometimes Life on Earth feels like such a bumpy ride, choppy and hard to balance, so, we commiserate and offer reassurance to each other. Lots of times, we want to share personal growth or even spiritual news from the web.
Spirit Cafe is where we pool our collective wisdom into fuel for the journey. Spirit Cafe is where hugs are virtual but still real, and where we include ourselves in the love & compassion we send out to the world.
Last year when we were two!!
Drop in to Lighthouse for the Soul’s Spirit Cafe this month, to celebrate what it means to be a spiritual light family — always welcome, always valued and always part of the whole. Hosted by Sue Scofield with a panel of COL teachers: Rob, Adrienne, Roxanne, Martin & (me) Jennifer. It’s always FREE.
[This is the final message in a series of six messages related to the Infinity Keys, the pairing of the Keys to Self with the Keys to Heaven, which will be the subject of a series of workshops to begin 29 Aug 2026. Information on the Workshops can be found here. — Rob]
Rob: So this is going to be Archangel Gabriell to continue the last in the series of six, that is using Love and Passion to overcome fear.
So whenever I go to the 13th Octave and I’m in my temple, when it’s time to meet Gabrielle, I always see her coming down from above in a stream of golden light, ‘til she comes down in front of me. Gabrielle, over to you for any words of wisdom to share.
AA Gabrielle: Greetings, Rob. Greetings to all. Thank you so much for inviting me into your circle today.
And of course, Rob, you have explored this topic several times before, perhaps not so much from the perspective of fear, so we will address that.
But I wish to start out to remind you, to remind all, that the Keys to Heaven, and from your own perspective, the Keys to Self, begin and end with love. It is the greatest power in the universe, the multiverse. In fact, [for] all of creation, it is the energy behind creation, the love from Source, from God, from Mother-Father-One. It is the power that gives rise to everything, to all that is.
And the manifestation of that love, that is you getting in touch with the love that is inherent within you that gives rise to your own passions, those things that you care most about. And the deeper you dive into that love and accept it for who you are and what you are, then the breadth of all the topics for which you are passionate just grows and grows, ultimately to encompass, again, all that is. So yes, the Infinity Keys begins with love, and it ends in love, for love animates all of it, all keys.
Now, to address this topic of fear and how love will overcome fear, it is true; the opposite of fear is love. It is the antidote to all forms of fear, for in the presence of love there is nothing to fear. Fear only occurs when you are feeling that absence of love, most often an absence of love for yourself, that is not acknowledging the love that is within you, that IS you. You are part and parcel of the creation of Mother-Father-One, therefore, you can be nothing but love, for that is the power, that is the energy that animates everything, all that you see.
So there is a curious expression, in particular in your Christian community, that you are God-fearing. It is a curious expression, and in fact, I would suggest that if there are two words that do not belong together in the same sentence, it is God and fear. God is love. Love is the opposite of fear, so how can there be anything fearful, anything related to fear, when speaking of, when addressing God, that is the source of all that is?
The only time fear can enter into your thinking, into your belief system, is when you deny the source of all that you are. When you get in touch with that source, and you feel the love, [when]you acknowledge that you are, in fact, that love, then there is nothing to fear, for nothing can touch you.
Anything that you see in the world that is fearful stems from a separation, a belief in the separation from that source. So again, love is the antidote to all ills in the world, for they are all just born of your own beliefs, your own limiting beliefs, your belief that there is somehow a God that will punish you for any misdeeds. I will say again, nothing could be further from the truth.
God does not judge. The only one judging anything about you and your life is you, which, of course, again, stems from a belief that you are somehow separated from source. This simply cannot be. It cannot be true. It is a false belief. Come back to the Source.
