Mother Mary on Using Humility-Unity to Overcome Separation

[This is the third 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.  Stay tuned for upcoming announcements. — Rob]

Rob: So this is the continuation of the series of going through the pairings of the Infinity Keys. This one would be on Humility and Unity to overcome any sense of separation. I know it seems kind of obvious, but I think this has got to be Mother Mary.

So, Mary, do you have anything to share today with respect to the Infinity Keys?

Mother Mary: Greetings, all. Yes, this is your mother, Mare, come to talk to you ultimately about unity. If I had to put my finger on one concept that would have the greatest impact on humanity’s ability to make the shift to the next level, it would be to adopt, to accept the idea, the reality of Unity Consciousness, that we are all one. Yes, it seems in life these days, but it is true that it is actually the hallmark of virtually the entirety of human history, certainly so for the last couple thousand years.

The feelings of separation, it is a false belief, [where] people, one group, feeling that they are somehow different than another, that they are separate from another. And this, of course, gives rise to any number of expressions of negativity. It seems there is no consequences if somebody is other than you, separate from you, different than you, then it is okay to harbor feelings that are less than positive. You treat them as different, but the reality is there is no such thing. It cannot be.

You overcome this sense of separation, feeling that you are somehow separated from all that you see, [where] everything that you witness outside of you feels separate from you, [by realizing], in reality, it is simply an expression of what is within you. It is there because you have put it there, because you have designed your life to give you that experience of whatever it is that you see there.

So, the third dimensional system is set up to make you believe that you are separate from all, from THE ALL, and, in fact, that is the primary point of having the experiences in this physical realm, that you are somehow separated from your Source. As we have said, this is an impossibility. There is no such thing as being separated from Source.

Everything that you witness, everything that you see, all that you can touch and feel was manifest through the same energy that gave rise to you. You and that are the same energy, are the same expression of divine creation. You may have chosen what it is that you want to experience, but it is all the same, the same as you. You and it are of the same substance, therefore, as we expressed last time, you are connected to that.

You are the same as that, through the sense of humility within yourself, that is, that you are no better than anyone else, but by the same token, you are no less than anyone else or anything else. Given that you were created from THAT same power, the universal power that gives rise to ALL physical expression, you have the full power of the entirety of the universe within you at all times.

So through yourself, your own beliefs and that sense of humility, you find that expression of Unity Consciousness. You come to understand that you are the same as all other, therefore, any contention that you have with another is simply an expression of a contention within yourself.

Return that to balance, the balance of yourself and through your humility with the All, through that sense of Unity Consciousness, and all such conflicts begin to break down. They, in fact, go away, for there is no point of fighting, ultimately, with yourself. There is no winner there. There is no loser there. It is simply an experience you are choosing to have.

Archangel Gabrielle on Using Hope-Connectedness to Overcome Feelings of Isolation

[This is the second 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.  Stay tuned for upcoming announcements. — Rob]

Rob: Okay, so I said I would do each one of these key pairs in turn, all six of them. This week we’re on to Hope and Connectedness, overcoming feelings of isolation. And so, I invite in Archangel Gabrielle. I see myself in my inner, sacred temple, and as I often see her, she is coming down from above, descending down in the golden light, to stand before me.

Thank you, Gabrielle. [Do you have] any words of wisdom to share?

AA Gabrielle: Greetings, Rob. Greetings, all. This is Gabrielle (or Gabriel, if you prefer), the Lily of Love, the Messenger of One.

It’s interesting, your conversation about the hierarchy, or lack thereof, and yet you see me come to you, descending from above. As you said, that is simply your own mental image of how I should come to you. At the end of the day, it’s not necessary, but I am honored that you think of me in this way, to make such an entrance. But understand, you, too, are part of that oneness and everything that I do, everything that I am capable of, you, too, have your own abilities, perhaps not fully expressed yet, but that does not mean they are not there. You just have not discovered them yet.

So your question, ultimately stemming from feelings of how the keys overcome feelings in some way of some imbalance, we applaud you for thinking your way through these. This one, in particular, the feelings of isolation, I think you understand by now that there is no such thing. This is a false belief, for you are never isolated. You can never be isolated. You are, in fact, part and parcel, an integral part of the One. The One is incomplete without you, for you are part of that. So, therefore, any feelings that you may have of isolation is simply your own interpretation, your own perception. It cannot be true. It IS not true.

So as you have discerned within your own model of the Infinity Keys, you can use the Key of Hope, that is, actually the knowing that there is a divine plan, and you are part of it. You cannot be NOT part of it, being at one with the One. That hope, that sense of hope deep within you that you know you are part of One, and there is a divine plan for you, that you are an integral part of that plan, holding to that sense of hope is what will help you to overcome any feelings, any temporary feelings, of a sense of isolation, ultimately to realize that you are, in fact, connected to All-That-Is.

Everything that you see, all that you witness, is part of the One. It finds its origin in the One, therefore it is all of the same creation. Therefore, it is all connected. You are connected to all of that. How can one feel any sense of isolation in knowing the breadth, the depth, of the connection that you have with everything?

Lao Tzu on Balance: As Above-So Below, As Within-So Without

[This is the first of 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.  Stay tuned for upcoming announcements. — Rob]

Lao Tzu

Rob: Well, if we’re going to talk about balance, then Lao Tzu would be the right choice. So we’ll go meet him in our Zen garden, with a stone bench sitting by a pond and green grass and cherry blossoms.

Okay, Lao Tzu, thank you for receiving me today and starting this series of going through each of the Infinity Keys. So let’s start with balance. Any words of wisdom to share?

[Laughs] Sorry, he’s teasing me. He said, “Greetings, Grasshopper!”

Lao Tzu: Yes, hello Rob. Hello, all. It’s always good to start these sessions with a laugh. It keeps the vibration high [and] allows the connection to flow more smoothly, does it not?

So this idea of yours, having differentiated the Keys to Self from the Keys to Heaven, that balance comprises two parts: As Above-So Below and As Within-So Without, it is an interesting idea, an idea that has merit. But I think you probably would agree that As Above-So Below and As Within-So Without, they are the same. Same, same.

For what is within you IS the above, IS the below, IS the without. It all starts within you. This is where you find that Heaven on Earth that you are seeking.

So you witness the chaos around you — what you call chaos — and you understand that it is only chaotic when you interpret it that way. Everything happens for a reason. The universe is not in the business of creating chaos. Events are what they are. They transpire as they need to be. Whether it is chaotic or not is your interpretation of those events based on an imbalance within yourself, within your own belief system.

So if it feels chaotic to you, then, as was expressed several weeks ago, that emotion of feeling chaos is an indicator to you that there is an imbalance within you. There is a conflict. There is something happening in the world that is contrary to your belief about what should be there, what you expected to be there. This is the within and without. What you see without does not match what is within you, the deepest part of you, the part that knows the divinity within you.

And as soon as you restore that back to its state of balance, that you understand why it is the way it is, then you will find the As Above-So Below. And the As Above follows, in reality, the So Below. The below happens first, which means you reconcile that imbalance within yourself to find that state of heaven — as above.

So you have paired all the Keys to Self with the Keys to Heaven, and rightly so. This would be a valuable exercise to continue as you have for all of them, but for balance, they are the same. What is heaven? What is self? It is all the same. It all starts with balance within yourself, within your own belief system.

So you are also correct that this is the starting point for finding that Heaven on Earth. All of the keys — Keys to Self [and] Keys to Heaven — must be within balance. And if any of them are causing you any difficulties, then it is that indicator to you that you are out of balance, and there is something to address.

Let It Be, an Anthem for Navigating the Ascension Process

[Rather than a direct channeling, this week I’m posting an article I wrote, but the inspiration behind it is just another form of channeling.  We all have the wisdom within us, if we would only stop to listen.  — Rob]

While listening to the radio the other day, I heard one of my favorite Beatles songs, Let It Be [1], and it struck me how many meanings that simple phrase could have, all of which make it the perfect anthem to guide our way through this Ascension process.

While Paul McCartney wrote the song about a dream he had of his own mother, Mary, I (and likely many others) take the references to “Mother Mary” as the personification of the Divine Mother, making the references to her “speaking words of wisdom” ever more meaningful.  In spite of listening to the song hundreds, perhaps thousands of times, this time, it occurred to me (or was given to me by the Divine Mother 😉) that “Let it be” has three distinct connotations, depending on how we define “it”:

1. The first connotation is to let go of “it,” where “it” is any internal struggles we may be holding onto.  This one is especially important, certainly for me, at this time.  I am realizing on a daily basis just how many old beliefs, ideas, and judgments I’m holding that are just not useful and, thus, not necessary anymore.  We are meant to experience life in peace, so when that peace is disturbed, it’s an indication that we’re holding onto a belief that is no longer necessary.

2. The second connotation is allowing others to be as they are, where “it” is anyone who may be behaving in a way we don’t approve.  So often, we attempt to place limits on other’s behavior to conform to our ideas of what is right and proper.  When we sit in judgment about another’s behavior, we are really trying to control them, but, they are divine sovereign beings, allowed to act anyway they are moved.  So, in reality, any upset we feel is simply a reflection of something we are judging within ourselves.

We’re here only to learn to control ourselves — our own thoughts, beliefs, and emotions.  Taken from that perspective, this connotation is actually a specific case of the first connotation, since all judgments about others are really manifestations of our own beliefs and biases, which are in need of letting go.

3. The final connotation is a prayer to a higher force that “it” may be so, where “it” is something we desire, presumably something better than what exists now.  This time of Ascension is certainly a time of pleading with the Divine Mother to bring into our reality a better world.  In fact, I am currently focused on the portion of the song that says,

“And when the broken-hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer.  Let it be.

For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see. There will be an answer.  Let it be.”

We are living in a time when all the broken-hearted people, who are so deeply divided, are waking up and coming to agreement that there must be a better way.  There IS an answer, because the Divine Mother has a plan, but it is up to each of us to do our part to decide what we want.  Of this, I am convinced … and it leaves me with feelings of tremendous hope and gratitude.

While contemplating this song, I was reminded that many years ago (I don’t recall exactly when), I was walking down the hall of a very large Government office building where I worked, and I spontaneously started to sing “And when I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me.”  Immediately, I realized that Mother Mary was, in fact, with me … right there in the hallway.  It was her way of making her presence known at a time and place not particularly spiritual.  Of course, being in a public place, I then had to hide the flowing tears!  🤣

So, the next time you find yourself upset by anything in your life, whether internal or external, my advice to you is simply to let it be and know that everything is happening for a reason.  Return to the hope of a better world and know that Mother Mary has ”it” under control.  👏😉

Yeshua on Emotion as an Indicator … and Activator

Rob: I’m calling in the Ascended Masters, and it looks like this will be Yeshua (Yeshi). So I’ll meet him where I always do, sitting on top of the pyramid in front of my Sacred Temple, sitting on the top step overlooking the water, the landscape.

So, if we had to add a fourth element to the Edgar Cayce quote that “Spirit is the life, mind is the builder, and the physical is the result,” how would we add emotion to that?

Yeshua: Hello again, all. Yes, this is your brother, Yeshi, to continue the conversation. Wouldn’t it be fun to be able to do this all together, sitting in a room, but I digress. We always have fun in any form that we’re able to communicate in this way.

So to answer your question directly, up front — and you know this, Rob; you have already discerned this — I would suggest that emotion is the indicator, but it is also the activator. Let me explain.

So while Edgar Cayce was correct that mind is the builder, that is an indicator that what you think — your thoughts, your beliefs — is what builds your reality, builds your perception of reality. It colors your perception. And in some ways, it puts it into a box that you can understand, and therefore [you] can function within that reality. And your emotions, then, are the indicator to you, within the physical body, of what you are thinking and of what you believe.

You see some event happen, [and] you have an emotional reaction. That is an indicator to you that there is something in your belief system that causes that reaction. And in that sense, it is your guidance system that helps you understand what it is that you believe.

But I would suggest also, by the same token, because emotion is, in fact, energy in motion, and energy is of the Spirit, that it is an activator. When you want to manifest something, bring something into your life, you hold that intention. It is your emotions that activate that into existence, that bring that energy to manifest what it is that you are intending through the mind to be brought into your reality.

So it is both an indicator and an activator, and yes, it is present within the construct of spirit, mind, and body. It is present across all three. Emotion, as energy in motion, is of the spirit, that is the energy. And as we just said, it is an indicator of what is in your mental construct about your reality. And of course, as we all know in the physical, any emotional reaction has a physical component to it as well. You physically feel the result.

St Germaine on Navigating the Extreme Change

Rob: So I see myself at the Temple of the Violet Flame on Atlantis. We’re just out front of the temple door. But as usual, it’s up on a pyramid, so we’re way up, elevated up, above the city.

St Germaine, we are obviously in a state of pretty extreme change, a state of transition, and I’m always struck by how people are resisting and even freaking out about the change that is happening. Do you have any words of wisdom to share for all of us going through this process?

St Germaine: Greetings, one and all! As always, it is a pleasure to visit with you.

I brought you here to Atlantis as a reminder of really what an extreme state of change you are in. What you are going through now is not unlike what previously occurred on Atlantis. Many of you were there. Many of you have now resolved that this time will be different. This time will not result in a wide-scale destruction, at least not in the physical sense.

And it is also good to connect with you with this underlying sense of humor, for none of this need be taken too seriously. And it is that sense of humor that will help carry you through what is currently underway, what more is coming.

You are correct in your assessment, Rob, that everything that is happening is simply a state of natural change. You are in a state of transition, a transition to what you lovingly refer to as Nova Earth, Nova Gaia. All of society will change for the better. You are in the midst of that.

So much of your life, your existence there, so many aspects of your life will change, as you have so rightly mandated that it should. You, as humanity as a whole, understand what no longer serves, and you are choosing a better way, a better system. So therefore, any part of the old system that must fall away in order to make way for the new does, in fact, have to crumble away.

Some do not like that language — crumbling evokes thoughts of destruction. But regardless of how you think about it, if the old system no longer serves, it must fall away, one way or the other. Whether through a gentle transition or whether through an abrupt transition, it must fall away to make way for the new.

And you must hold in your heart the vision for what it is that you want to replace that, and the more time you spend fighting against the change is time that COULD be spent, instead, envisioning what that future state should be, could be, will be. If you want the transition to be done with, to happen quicker, then devote yourself [to spending] time envisioning what it is that you want. It is your intention that makes that happen.

You are well on the way. All of you, collectively, are well on the way to making that happen. But the more of you that resist the change simply serves to slow down the process.

When you see others reacting badly, set yourself the task to show them what a smooth transition looks like. There need not be drama. There need not be chaos. Those are all your interpretations, based on false beliefs. Let those go. Focus on what it is that you want.

In the end, peace throughout harmony, with everything, with others, with nature, with life in general. [But] above all, unity — unity across all of humanity. [That is] not to say that you all think alike, have the same ideas. You can all have different ideas about what it is that you want, and that’s okay. That is the fun involved in the transition.

Higher Self, Sam-u-el, on Trust (Surrender and Allow)

[As Jennifer said in the intro of her last post, three of us all channeled our Higher Selves on the topic of Trust, which comes to is as a package of Trust-Surrender-Allow. This is my offering from that session. We’ll post the third teammate’s view later in the week. We hope you enjoy the series of multiple perspectives. — Rob]

Rob: I’m requesting to meet with my Higher Self, Sam-u-el, who appears something like the AI-generated image to the left.

Okay Sam-u-el, I was inspired this morning with the word “trust,” and of course, we’ve had a conversation about “trust, surrender, and allow,” so I trust that you have something to say about this. Over to you.

Sam-u-el: Hello, Rob. Hello, all. It seems odd, does it not, to meet in this way? We are always in communication. We are always having a conversation. This morning, when you asked for what topic would be appropriate for today, I suggested one. You heard it, so we’re communicating just fine! But I understand this is perhaps for a broader audience…

[Regarding] your question of trust, that goes immediately to an understanding that there is a Divine Plan, that YOU have a Divine Plan, that you are part of a much bigger plan. So fundamentally, trust is simply your acknowledgement of that, that you are aware that there is such a plan, even if you’re unaware of what the details of that might be. You are trusting that there is such a plan. You are trusting that you have a role within that.

You also drew the card on the Universal Law of Change, and within that it says that, yes, you understand that there is a plan for you, but it is sequenced and sequential. There are a series of events that must unfold for the fulfillment of that plan. Again, you may not understand what all those steps are, what those events may be. The trick is, as you all have rightly pointed out, is to not attempt to control that.

You have heard before in previous sessions that it is very difficult for humans to not attempt to control events, to allow them to just unfold. I would argue that those who have said that were being polite, and in reality, it is nigh unto impossible for humans to understand the fullness of the Divine Plan. So attempting to control that is pretty close to futile.

You often say, as a group, to trust, surrender, and allow. And as we just rightly pointed out a little while ago, [those actions] are so sequential. Trust comes first, that there is a plan. Surrender your sense of control, your need to control. Surrender yourself to the plan, even if you do not understand what steps are involved. How events must unfold, surrender yourself to that. Just let it go.

And finally, allow. Allow the universe to bring to you those events that are appropriate for the unfoldment of that plan FOR YOU, within your realm. That may not be the same for everyone. You are all individuals. You are all sovereign beings. You each have your own role within the grander Divine Plan. Just allow that to unfold.

It is a tricky thing for humans to let go of, to release so much. You live your life in the realm of physical, feeling the need to control everything … and rightfully so. There’s so much in your world that can bite you, that can harm you, so you learn from a very early age to control events, so that you stay safe. But in reality, there is no danger. That is all a perception that you have from the perspective of the physical existence. But that’s not your real existence. That’s not your real life. These are all just experiences that you are choosing to have.

So viewed from that perspective, there should be nothing fearful about letting go. In fact, it can be joyful. What will the universe bring me next? What wonderment, what wonderful things that I may have never experienced before come my way in the next period before me? It can be a lot of fun from that perspective!

Mother Mary on Maintaining Balance

Rob: I see myself walking on the roadway in my sacred landscape, and, of course, Mother Mary joins me and takes me by the arm. She’s just enjoying that we’re laughing so much.

Okay, over to you, Mother.

Mother Mary: Hello, my children, all. Yes, it is such a joy watching you laugh, having your conversations about the tumult in the world and how it need not affect you.

You are all learning to find that place of balance, and that is the key. It is all about balance, finding the balance within yourself, the within and the without. It’s not just above and below, but within and without [as well]. What is in the outside world must be balanced with what is within you, your own spirit, your own sense of centeredness – as you just said, Rob, to care about what happens in the world, but not allowing that to affect you and take you off of your own center.

We commend you, Rob, for the place you are at the moment, in a place of more balance. Not to say that you’ve solved all the world’s problems, but at this moment, it is a good day. It’s been a good week, a good month.

Of course, all of this is helped tremendously by that wonderful grandchild of yours. Nothing will help you find the balance within your own life more than the beauty found in the eyes and in the smile of a small child, reminding you continually of what life should be about – the never ending sense of wonder, of exploration, of finding what’s new in everything that’s right in front of you.

So yes, as depicted in the Tarot’s Two of Pentacles card, you are in a place at the moment of acknowledging the chaos in the world, but staying within yourself and finding that place of joy that allows you to dance. And it’s all centered in that place of balance. You have found that balance for the moment. Yes, there may be times when you are pulled off, but you understand enough now how to bring yourself back.


Enjoy these moments when life seems to be easy, and even when faced with rather extreme expenses in the financial side, it doesn’t seem to affect you. It doesn’t faze you. This is the way of things. This is the way of balance. You know all will be taken care of. You will be taken care of. We, the entire Company of Heaven have your back, as it were. All will be well. Just allow, but more importantly, just have fun!

Sanat Kumara (Raj) on Unity Consciousness

Rob: So, I’m just getting settled and trying to call in Sanat Kumara. Okay, Raj, I guess it’s over to you for whatever you would like to discuss today.

Sanat Kumara (Raj): Greetings, one and all. It’s my pleasure to join you today. You all seem to be in a playful mood. This is so valuable in these days. Hold to that.

And you, Rob, in particular, are feeling such a deep sense of contentment. Yes, of course, it helps to watch that beautiful granddaughter of yours. Even today, just sitting with her, allowing her to nap [while] laying on your chest. Life need not be more complicated than that.

Just allow yourself to feel that at all times — the love and the wonder of a small child. The innocence, the purity, it evokes within you, that same feeling. This is all that’s required, nothing more complicated than that.

And you keep coming back to these thoughts of, “How are we going to achieve the sense of unity consciousness across the planet of all peoples, [because] everything seems so divided?” If it is divided, that is through your choice. Unity consciousness starts with just believing that you are, in fact, all one. You all come from the same source.

It doesn’t matter what people do, what people say, what they believe. You’re all from the same source, the same energy. You are, in fact, all one.

Does that mean you all have to think alike, believe the same, act the same? Of course not. Mother-Father-One do not want that. All of you are here as a unique expression of that one energy, and it should be that varied. But all of you, as you participate in this life, should honor that, should respect that, that you will, in fact, all have different beliefs, different thoughts, different ways of approaching life.

If you disagree with someone, what does that matter? At the end of the day, there’s no such thing as right or wrong, for in reality, when you all come down to the basic understanding of what life really is — this life on this planet — that you will find that all of you are wrong to some degree. So what does it matter if someone else thinks differently than you?

There’s such a fixation on partisanship — and I don’t mean political parties. I mean anything that divides you, one person against another, one people against another. It’s all rather meaningless, for you all come from the same source, so anything that divides you, makes you think that you are in some way different from another, is simply your own construct, your own belief system, separating you from another.

Demonstrate the Blessings Anyway …

[This is a poem inspired by Spirit, albeit one whose structure was borrowed from another.  I’m no poet, but I like how this turned out. — Rob]

As so often happens, I was quietly contemplating spiritual concepts when the poem, “Do It Anyway,” came to mind, and I questioned what that would look like if focused on the 13 Diving Qualities / Blessings and Virtues [1].  To remind you, the poem, “Do It Anyway,” was written by Kent M. Keith, but popularized by Mother Teresa (most often remembered by the one stanza, “The good you do today will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.”)

So for me, holding fast to the 13 Blessings and Virtues in a chaotic world would look something like this:

The world may pressure you to make hasty and easy decisions. — Be prudent anyway.

The world may convince you to disregard the plight of others. — Be compassionate anyway.

The world may encourage you to give up. — Stand in fortitude anyway.

The world may seem hopeless. — Keep hope alive anyway.

The world may reward the ego-centric. — Express humility anyway.

The world may encourage you to be greedy. — Be charitable anyway.

The world may entice you with the morally wrong. — Be pure anyway.

The world may advocate for the unbelievable. — Hold to the truth anyway.

The world may present you many plausible stories. — Apply your wisdom anyway.

The world may seem entirely mundane. — Hold a sense of awe anyway.

The world may show you ugliness. — See the beauty anyway.

The world may make happiness seem elusive. — Find the joy anyway.

The world may look to keep you down. — Allow Heaven to show you grace.

The 13 Blessings and Virtues are the waypoints of Nova Earth, so I hope this serves as an inspirational roadmap to help you find peace in these seemingly chaotic times.  In spite of outward appearances, we’re on the doorstep of realizing the promises of a new world, and with a dedicated focus on what truly matters, we will surely find our way there … together.

[1] The Council of Love defines the 13 Divine Qualities / Blessings & Virtues as:  Prudence, Compassion, Fortitude, Hope, Humility, Charity, Purity, Truth, Wisdom, Awe, Beauty, Joy, and Grace.
