Godspeed, Little Boy!

December 22, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling

This past week, my family had to make the heart-wrenching decision to say goodbye to our beloved family pet, Carlos. Several weeks ago, he was diagnosed with lung cancer and a failing liver, and by this past week he had stopped eating — of course, he was losing weigh rapidly. When he stopped drinking, we knew the time was close.

While my wife and I were agonizing over the timing, I decided to meditate on it and ask him. Why not? — we’re all one in spirit! Even with my experience with channeling, I was surprised at how easy and clear the conversation was.

As is my practice for channeling, I entered my sacred landscape and sat on my bench, waiting for my guest to arrive. Carlos came and sat with me for a short while, and our conversation went something like this:

Rob: Is this the end?

Carlos: Yes.

Rob: Why now? When we learned of the diagnosis, we had hoped to get through Christmas and the New Year.

Carlos: It’s my decision to go now. Would you rather prolong this and watch me decline day-by-day?

Rob: Are you doing this so the grieving will be over by Christmas (so as to minimize the impact on the holiday)?

Carlos: No. Even going now, it won’t be over by Christmas. But it’s time.

Rob: Are you doing this so it doesn’t interfere with other upcoming events?

Carlos: Yes.

At that point, I was satisfied, so I didn’t ask for any details. I then saw myself throwing a ball down the grassy lane, with Carlos running full out to chase it. Chasing down a ball was probably his favorite activity, but he hadn’t been able to do that in several years (due to a torn ligament in his hind leg). While he loved to chase a ball, he would never bring it back, so he sat with it and looked back at me as if to say, “Well, are you coming?” It was our way to go for a “walk.”

I then saw myself taking him to my sacred temple to meet my guides. The temple sits atop a pyramid with steps up one side. As we ascended the stairs, he stopped about half way, and basically said, “You’re not really going to make me climb these stairs, are you?!” He was a little dog, so human-sized stairs were always a challenge. He would often have to get a running start to make it up one flight. Consequently, I carried him the rest of the way. 😉

I later saw him in the temple, running amongst my guides, bouncing from one to another, wagging his tail as he greeted each one. He loved meeting new people, and everyone felt the joy from such a happy guy!

Carlos showed me what unconditional love really is, and I loved him like few others. It’s true; you get what you give!

I can’t thank him enough for 13+ years of joy and for talking to me to set my mind at ease. I know he is enjoying his “retirement”, most assuredly keeping my in-laws company.

Farewell for now, Little Boy! I love you and will miss you dearly.

Quan Yin on the Role of Compassion in Guiding Others

December 15, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

Rob: I’m seeing Quan Yin, but not on the dragon. This is Quan Yin on the lotus blossom. So, Quan Yin, I just open myself to you, whatever you would like to share, whatever message you have for us today.

Quan Yin: Good evening. It’s such a pleasure to be with you. Yes, I am Quan Yin, so-called Goddess of Compassion. You will find that many of us don’t like such titles. They seem so pretentious! 😊 … but they are there for a reason.

And yes, I am stepping forward to have a conversation about compassion, for these times in particular. Now is the time to fall back on, to rely on, to lean on, your sense of compassion for all others for the difficulties that will arise soon. Many people will be upset with what is transpiring. Pay that no mind. All is happening according to plan.

What I am here to address is your role in holding that sense of love and compassion for all — not just any particular group, but for all groups — for the sense of being in groups is really an outward expression of separation. And we all know there is no separation, not really. We are all children of the One, so hold that love for all, and above all, hold that same compassion for yourself.

It will seem at times like the world has lost its mind, is going crazy, and it will be difficult to see where we’re going, what the outcome is going to be. Hold fast to the love within you. Hold to that sense of compassion for all others.

Everyone will be going through this time of transition together. All will be experiencing the same sense of confusion. Do you need to know what is coming? No, not at all. And, in fact, it does serve the plan to some degree that you not know, so that you are feeling that same sense of turmoil and confusion and uncertainty that all will feel, and then you, all of you, can be the lighthouse, can show them the way to safety, show them the way to peace, and ultimately, to hope.

All will be well. There is no reason for fear. As you all have been discussing recently, fear is a construct based in either the future, which has not yet happened, or the past, which is already gone. Rather, hold yourself within the present and just BE, knowing who you are, why you came, what you came here to do, to be that shining light for all others.

In this, we have no doubts about your ability to do so. You have already proven yourself many, many times over.

It may feel like you’re being tested in the days to come, but again, there is no such thing. What will happen must happen in order for all truth to come to light, even if that is completely contrary to what you think at the moment. And as you said earlier in the day — very wisely, I might add — that you are also preparing yourself for the possibility that everything that you think you know you are wrong!

It is better at this time to simply fall back on the one point that never changes. You are love. You are a child of the One, and all will be well.

The Choosing of the Mother

December 7, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in archangels, Mary Magdalene, spiritual info, Upcoming Course, Yeshua

Prelude to the Christmas Story

Many know the biblical story of Archangel Gabriel announcing to the young Mary, “Don’t be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and shall name him ‘Jesus.’ He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.” [WEB Luke 1:30-32]. However, few know the full story of what led up to that point, which was so beautifully told through the channeling of Edgar Cayce. For me, this is such an inspiring and fascinating story that I’ve made it a habit for many years to read it each Christmas season. It’s that time of year again, so please allow me to show you the more fulsome picture as it unfolded so many years ago.

According to Edgar Cayce (specifically, the 5749 Reading series), Mary was born to Anna and Joachim who belonged to the Essene sect. In recognition of her spiritual destiny, they gave the 4-year-old Mary over to service in the Essene Temple (located at the School of the Prophets at Mt Carmel). Mary was one of twelve such maidens to be prepared as a possible channel for the prophesied Messiah. In fact, “Essene” meant “expectancy,” since they worked for generations to prepare the pathway. In the temple service, the twelve maidens were trained in physical, mental, and spiritual purity, as well as the prophesies related to the Messiah.

When Mary was between 12-13, the time had come for the choice of which maiden would be the channel. When all the maidens climbed the temple steps toward the altar for morning prayers, the sunrise illuminated the whole scene in a purple and gold hue. As Mary reached the top step, a shadow passed over Mary alone, and there was thunder and lightening. Archangel Gabriel then appeared and led her to the altar. These were the indicators of choosing, leaving no doubt about the divine will of who would be the channel for the Blessed One.

I love the beauty and holiness of the scene, and I often wonder what Mary must have felt at that time. While she had received years of preparatory training, did she really have any idea of the extreme joys, the weight of such responsibility, or the inconceivable hardship and heartache that she would have to bear? How can one not be filled with awe? I am humbled just thinking about it, and for me, it is now an inextricable part of the Christmas story.

This story and many others like it will be covered in an upcoming 6-part Council of Love eCourse on Yeshua and the Magdalena. Starting on January 25, 2025 and running through 5 April 2025, on alternate Saturdays, Jennifer Donaldson and I will walk through the inspired lives and timeless message of these two Ascended Masters, as told through many traditions and channeled sources, not the least of which is Linda Dillon, author of The Jesus Book. Beyond what happened in the past, they are still present and continue to teach us today! Please consider joining us for what will no doubt be inspiring, thought provoking, and fun!

The Magdalena: Additional Guidance on Hope

December 1, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, Mary Magdalene, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

Rob: I think this is going to be the Magdalena. So, I’m sitting on the bench in my sacred landscape, overlooking the water. She’s admiring the view.

So Mary, I’m not sure really what to talk about. I drew the card on Hope. [I’m] happy to talk about that, if you have anything to share. … I’m just trying to go deeper and just release more, surrender more.

Mary Magdalene: Greetings. This is the Magdalena. And yes, Rob, I am admiring your landscape here. You were commenting earlier to your teammate about formerly being an artist. I would suggest you still are. This is quite the creation!

So the whole idea of hope, as I think you know, is really living from, operating from, that place of absolute knowing of who you are and what the Divine Plan is and how you fit within that. And yes, Rob, for you, it is knowing within yourself what wisdom it is that you have to share and to offer. Whether you are an active teacher or not in the formal sense does not matter. You find ways to express your wisdom in any situation, when in any interaction.

And that wisdom is being able to express to others who THEY are, who YOU ALL are, where you come from, why you are here and where you are going. And the time is nigh …

Rob: [Chuckles] Sorry, I’m laughing at that word.

Magdalena: The time is close when so much will be revealed. It is the time to hold fast to what it is that you know, to that wisdom within yourself, being able to discern that what you see in the outside world is not really what’s happening behind the scenes. There’s a much grander plan at work.

So hold to what you know [and] tie yourself to that bedrock. And, as the Mother [has said], just have fun with it. There is no reason at all, no matter what outside appearances may indicate, there is no reason at all to be dour, to be fearful.

Know that all of it, everything that is happening is part of the Mother’s plan, and it is all unfolding exactly as it should. It may not be the way that you prefer, but we both know, that does not matter. When you commit yourself to service to all others, then what you think, what you want, what you desire, is simply that — to be of service to others.

And yes, the ideas that were coming to you last night, the technologies that will soon be released on planet for the betterment of humankind, they’re coming. If you desire to be part of that and to help that along, then we absolutely encourage you to put your energy there, to put your resources there. It’s just another form of being of service.

If that’s what you desire, then make that a creation. Make that part of your future. Whether you do or you don’t, does not matter. Whatever it is that you choose to do, you will do so, as is your natural way of being, you will exude the wisdom that is within you, for it cannot sit still. It wants to be expressed.

So be that channel. Be that blessing to others.

And I would suggest, since it is also on your mind, the interaction that you had recently with your leadership at work that you found bothersome, do not worry about it. Again, with your presence, you are exuding the wisdom that is within you, for you cannot do otherwise.

But I would suggest that if it does bother you, then take an active part in expressing that, helping the others. But as we both know, this is just something that happens, something to teach you, something as an indicator to look within yourself. Why does that interaction bother you? There is something there for you. And more often than not, it is tugging on those old strings, that whole notion of lack of self-worth, of judging yourself. Let that go.

Well, I think I’ve spoken enough for the moment. I would be happy to take questions if anyone has any. Otherwise, I’ll just sit here and enjoy the view. 🙂

Personal Guide Malia on Reconnecting to One’s Own Purity

November 24, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

Rob: So it’s been a long time since I’ve gone to this particular place, but on the roadway, the pathway that goes down to the bench, overlooking the water, if I walk up the roadway a bit, there is a small, round marble temple — I guess, like a gazebo, but made of marble, round — and in the middle of it is a font, like a baptismal font — just a big decorative standing bowl with water in it. This is the water of purity. It’s a symbol of purity — the Font of Purity. And I see my guide, Malia. She’s a golden-haired angel, with pearlescent white wings. So I’m stepping up into this temple, in front of the font.

Thank you, Malia, for joining me, helping me through this. I think I know why I’m here. It’s to reconnect to my own purity .. going back to the basics.

Malia: Welcome again. Rob. Yes, it is time again to reconnect, reconnect to who you are and the purity of who you are. This would be a valuable practice for any of you there, any of you in human form, to spend some time now and again to remind yourself who you are and why you are here, especially in these times of turmoil.

Whatever chaos seems to be raging around you, this is a place of peace. This is a place to reconnect with the original intent of purity behind who you are, why you’ve come here. And in this state, this is where you really come to understand that you are no different than anyone else. You are all the same.

And in that sameness, you are one. This is how you connect with the unity, to develop the unity consciousness.

You had also drawn the card today on the Universal Law of Attraction and Repulsion. Raj [Sanat Kumara] is reminding me, it is important to attract to yourself that which you desire, but from the perspective of the purity of your intention, of why it is that you want that, and how that will help you on your path, ultimately, to achieve unity with all, to understand the oneness of all.

Of course, repulsing, then also, any feelings of separation and division, for those are false notions. Those are false beliefs. Time to let those go.

So as we stand here in front of the font, I encourage you, since you have found in your own wisdom to construct this temple as a place, as a permanent place, to come periodically to drink of this water. Feel it course through you, and with that, spreading that sense of purity as a reminder of why you came in the first place, why you embarked on this adventure in human form.

It was meant to be fun. Humans make it so difficult [and] find so many reasons to deny who they are and why they are here. Take this as an opportunity to let all of that go.

As you drink the water, reconnect to your original intentions. Feel the calm, the peace, that results from partaking. Whenever you feel in any way disturbed by what you see around you, come here. Come to me. Visit me, and drink again of the purity and allow that to soothe your soul.

This is simply a visual reminder of what is happening at an energetic level, but it’s all the same. It’s here for you. I am here for you. In fact, all of this is here for all of you.

Many of you, your teammates included, may visit any time they choose, find that font of purity of their own making, of their own style, in their own place within themselves. At this point, perhaps one of your teammates have questions for me?

The Archangels on Experiencing Unity Consciousness

November 17, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in archangels, Channeling, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

Rob: So as I stand in the center space of my temple with the Mighty Ones all around — Archangels Mikael, Raphael, Uriel, Jophiel, Gabrielle — I ask to experience what Unity Consciousness actually means. Intellectually, I get it. We are all one. I feel that I need to understand more than from an intellectual level. I ask for your help today. As your servant, I surrender, allow, trust.

I am thinking of my teammates, teammates in the past, in fact, all of the people that have come into my life, into my awareness, into my experience, since I’ve been a teacher. I get the sense that we are all on this journey together, all on the same team as teammates, some more close than others.

Mighty Ones: So one level of unity is operating with others at a common cause and purpose, so long as we are unified in what that purpose is, but there is no doubt that we all came here with the same purpose — to assist humanity in this transition. But we all have our positions to play, as it were — our specific focus based on our strengths. While we may be different, even at the spiritual level, based on what gifts we choose to express, we can still have a unified purpose.

Rob: But this notion of turmoil in the world, how do we unify that?

Mighty Ones: Everyone is operating from a similar perspective — that is, they believe they are doing the right thing, that the only way forward that they can see is within their particular belief system. Yes, some are blind to the full scope of events as they are transpiring — the issues with the current system — but that is only what you see on the surface. They may be taking an entrenched position as their act of service. Do not judge.

Rob: But how do I feel AT ONE with them, seemingly on the opposite end of the spectrum of belief … or even this rock I am holding in my hand.

Mighty Ones: It requires you to step outside of yourself, to view the events of the world from the perspective that you are that expression of Divine Love … as are they, or it, if it seems to be an inanimate object. In reality, there is no such thing as an inanimate object. If you are holding it in your hand, then it is animated with the same Divine Love that animates you.

Feel the rock in your hand. Feel the energy in your own body.

Rob: [I pause to feel for a while] Perhaps we take a different tack. Can you simply flood my heart with that feeling of oneness with you? I can imagine myself with you, each of you, individually, standing in front of me. Gabrielle, help me to take that next step. Help me to understand how to step aside fully to allow you to cohabitate with me.

AA Gabrielle: If you can allow any member of the Company of Heaven to come in and speak with you, then you can do the same with any object, any other person, because we are all animated with the same energy of love, which has consciousness.

[We were interrupted … so I resumed the next day.]

Rob: I’m seeing myself [again] in my temple in the center of the open space [with] all the Archangels around and Uriel in front of me. I’m greeting him, and as he does on occasion, he touches my forehead, my Fourth Eye with his finger. And he’s kind of joking around and taking his other hand and knocking on the side of my head, saying, “You really need to get out of your head!”

Okay, Uriel, what can you share that would be useful, be helpful for me to, I suppose, get out of my own way? I just surrender and allow to come whatever you choose.

AA Uriel: Greetings, Rob. Yes, this is way too much of a mental exercise for you. You spend an awful lot of time denying what it is that you feel. But we know, you know, you feel an awful lot more than you are letting on. You are keeping yourself guarded, as if somehow expressing your feelings is a bad thing. You well know there is no such thing.

So [regarding] your desire to feel something, something extraordinary, I would suggest to you that you do that far more than you believe. But you’re waiting on the fireworks. It doesn’t necessarily happen that way. It can, and it has for you, but you tend not to remember those events. You just let them pass — that was fun at the moment — then you tend to forget about them.

After studying A Course in Miracles, you had said for a long time that if you just experienced that “holy instant,” as it’s described in that teaching, that that would carry you for years. But as you’ve progressed, you’ve come to realize that’s not enough. You want more.

What you’re really saying is you want it to be your continual state of perception, of the world, of life, of all of your experiences. And it can be, but it is a complete act of surrender! Allow yourself! Allow yourself to feel that all the time.

St Germaine on the Vision for the United States of America

November 10, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, spiritual community, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

[I channeled this a few days after the U.S. election. My teammates and I were discussing people’s reaction to it, and when it came my time to channel, St Germaine unexpectedly came through with this message of hope. He gives us a call-to-action to look beyond the results and unite as one, as was the original vision for America. — Rob]

Rob: I keep seeing the image of St Germaine standing in the [Independence] Hall in Philadelphia when they signed the Declaration of Independence. We’re standing in the back … although we’re kind of overseeing the whole [scene] — we’re up above, looking down on the hall. I’ve been there, and it’s actually not a very big room.

St Germaine: Greetings, all. This is Saint Germaine, Keeper of the Violet Flame, and yes, one of the instigators of this experiment that we call America — the New World, as it were, at the time. I show you these images to make the point that we are coming full circle to the original vision of what America, these United States, was meant to be. Yes, I had a hand in inspiring those who signed the document to actually have the internal fortitude to do so, and, for those who drafted it, to craft the words that would resonate with so many for centuries to come.

We find ourselves now at a point in the history of humanity where we’re on the cusp of truly understanding what it means to be united. I know it doesn’t feel that way at the moment, but this time — this most recent election — is showing MORE people — not just in this country, but across the world — the effect that division and separation have on our attitudes, on our beliefs, on our well-being. And everyone is coming to realize what they no longer desire, what they are no longer willing to tolerate.

The shift is happening. People understand [that] divisiveness, certainly in government systems, but in all facets of life, just does not work. It is not good for anyone.

Yes, there are times when one side feels that they’ve won, but as you all pointed out at the beginning [of your discussion], that also means there is another side who feels they have lost … and that flips back and forth from one cycle to another, constantly winning-losing. It makes no sense.

People are coming to understand, to realize, I no longer want this. I want off the roller coaster, as it were. I want to feel what it is like to be united with ALL my brothers and sisters, within my own community, within my own family, for that matter, across the nation and across the world. All these events that have happened most recently are all leading to that point of realization. It’s taking hold — perhaps slowly at first, but it is surely taking hold.

Now is the time for all of you to help your brothers and sisters to see that, to understand that the division does not serve anyone. And it’s coming together, united as one humanity. That is where we are headed. That is where you are all headed.

And it’s up to each of you to show others the way, to extend to them, as your dear teammate likes to say, the generosity of your heart, to show others what it is like, how to behave when living from your heart with love and compassion for all, irrespective of what side they are on. There are no sides!

Yes, there’s a wide range of differing beliefs, but none of that matters. You are all humans. You are all here for the same reason, for the same ultimate purpose, that is to realize who you are. And you are all the same, therefore you are all on the same journey. Yes, you all take a different path, but at the end of the day, you all end up in the same place.

As you were just looking the other day, Rob, at that image that you created of multiple paths up the mountain, yes, different cultures can all have a different path, but in the end, we all end up at the top, the point of realization that we are, in fact, all one.

We are SO excited for the times that are emerging now, for the events that are to come, for the resulting sense of unity across the entire planet, as it was meant to be from the beginning.

But thank you all for your service, for helping humanity get there, for it is happening. Rest assured. Take heart. Be proud of the role that you are playing.

So with that, do any of you have any questions?

Lao Tzu on Humility and Finding Peace

November 3, 2024November 4, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

Rob: So I’m in my sacred landscape, and I’m going down to the water. And at the edge of the water is a tree with a big rock, a boulder, underneath it. Lao Tzu is there, sitting on the rock, waiting for me. So I’m taking a seat next to him in the shade of the tree.

So since I drew a card on humility, and because humility is one of the Blessings and Virtues, and in fact, I had chosen it as one of the Keys to Self, I probably would have said I know what I need to know about humility. But I acknowledge, also, there’s always more.

So do you have anything to share with me, something I don’t know, perhaps about myself and my own attitudes, my own beliefs, about humility?

Lao Tzu: Greetings, Rob. So nice of you to join me here [on] this pleasant day, enjoying the calm by the water’s edge. And the calm is important. It seems to be a theme — slow down, take time out to just enjoy the peace.

At the end of the day, that’s really what humans need to learn — how to go through this life, any life, in a state of peace and calm. It is fine to be excited about something new, learning something new, experiencing something new. That brings the joy.

But at the end of the day, the lasting contentment comes from the peace, leaving the turmoil behind, centering yourself and going within in order to find that place of calm, to find that place that really speaks to who you really are. For at the end of the day, nothing that happens out there — there in the physical world — can affect you unless you allow it.

And as soon as you accept that, firmly believe that, it stops affecting you; it stops disturbing your calm, your peace. It’s just something that’s happening. It’s all just happening for your entertainment and, yes, perhaps for you to learn something, to witness a scenario play out so that you may understand all sides, so that you can fully grasp the depth of whatever the situation is, whatever it is that you have to learn, that you have chosen to learn.

There is nothing you have to do in this life or any other. It is all based on the plan of what it is that you have set out to learn, set out to experience. So why would any of that disturb your peace? It only does if you allow it. But I am asking, why would you allow it?

Think of it as sitting in a classroom … as you’re sitting in the chair, waiting for the teacher to present their lecture, present the material, whatever form that is, do you feel anxious about that? Do you feel a lack of calm and peace while you’re sitting there absorbing what the teacher is offering? Most likely not. So why would you feel any different about your own experiences that you have chosen as a means to teach you? It’s no different.

The point is, to get to that state, one has to acknowledge at all times that you are divine, that you are a divine spirit who is simply choosing a set of experiences in order to learn or in order to just have fun as a source of entertainment. So none of this should be taken too seriously. The trick is, if I could call it a trick, is to keep in mind at all times [to] never forget who you are. If you are operating from that perspective, then all the rest of it, all of the turmoil in the world, just seems silly to allow that to disturb your own peace.

So the notion of humility is simply understanding, operating from the perspective, that God is your only source, for God is all that there is. You hear at times people refer to God as “All That Is,” and it is true … and you are part of that. You are part of the All, therefore you also are All That Is!

That’s not to be taken in any way as boastful. No, it is operating from a position of humility that you are nothing without the God Source within you. You would not be here without that. None of us would be.

And think of the majesty of ALL of what that means, the complexity involved, the magnificence involved, and yes, THOU ART THAT, that is living from a position of humility and respect for who you are.

I hope that has helped. Perhaps your teammate has some questions for us.

Higher Self Samuel on Reconnecting With My Passion

October 27, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

[I was feeling a bit discouraged about the low turn-out for one of my recent teaching events, so I channeled my Higher Self, Samuel, on how I could regain my passion for such offerings. — Rob]

Rob: Okay, Samuel, perhaps you can talk to me a bit about what I’ve got to do to reconnect with the passion of why I’m doing all of this. How can I get to a point of not allowing external events to affect me? How how do I regain that passion?

Samuel: Well, hello again, Rob. Here we are in our usual place, and I’ve teased you before that you tend to only come to me when you have some problem. Why can’t we just visit and have some fun?!

But of course, you know, I’m always here — always here with you. I am you. You are me. So let’s see if we can’t sort this out.

Not wanting to be one of those who answers a question with a question, but I have to ask, why are you doing this? Why are you here? Why do you choose to be a teacher, choose to be a coach, choose to be on the spiritual path, as you call it?

Rob: Well, fundamentally, it’s because I want to help people.

Samuel: Exactly. So if your motivation is that you just want to help people, does it matter how many people that is? Is it less significant if it’s one person?

I’m sure all of your teammates will tell you that you’ve helped them in one way or another, at one time or another. Does that scratch your itch regarding what your motivation is to help people? If you’ve helped any, should that not be enough?

Everyone is here on this planet, ultimately, for the same reason. There’s a divine plan at work. Humanity is transitioning to a whole other level. You are here to help that along. If you only help one person, one other soul, is that not enough? Have you not fulfilled what you came here to do?

You’re starting to wrap your head around, or at least grapple with, this whole notion of seeking external validation, that is validation from something outside of yourself. Why?! If your motivation is to help people, then YOU are the judge of whether you are doing that or not.

The difficulty that all humans face is that you JUST DON’T FULLY KNOW what impact you are having. Humans want to know; they want to know all the details. It’s not necessary … but this is where faith comes in.

If you approach any situation, any interaction, any class, any webinar, any one-on-one session, from the perspective that you are simply there to be of assistance, then be content with that alone. It doesn’t matter what the outcome is that you SEE, for you don’t see all that is happening as a result of those interactions. Go into the situation reminding yourself why you are doing this, and be content with yourself for having helped, [or] at least having tried. That should be enough. Anything else is simply YOU seeking opportunities to beat yourself up over nothing.

So I would suggest that you make it a habit — and yes, to “make it a habit” means practicing it routinely — to remind yourself through the day, “Why am I here? Why did I volunteer to come do this?” If being a teacher and a coach or just a help-meet to anyone that you encounter over any situation (even if it is simply passing somebody in the grocery store), if you approach it from the perspective of, “I’m just going to be helpful,” and you are content with doing only that, then how can every day not be a success?

This may seem like a simplified view of the world, a suggestion that is perhaps too simple. I’m suggesting to you to try this for a while and see how your mood changes. In the spirit of keeping it simple, I will leave it there.

Of course, we can always have these conversations and continue to have a conversation about this as additional thoughts occur to you, more questions, but for the moment, perhaps one of your teammates would choose to help. Do either of you have questions?

Quan Yin on Just Having Fun!

October 20, 2024 by Rob Loveland, posted in Channeling, spiritual guidance, spiritual info

[With all the news of such turmoil in the world, I just wanted to have some fun … and Quan Yin was more than happy to accommodate! — Rob]

Rob: I don’t know who this is going to be. I don’t even know what it’s going to be about. All I know is I want it to be fun — nothing too heavy. … I know who it’s going to be — Quan Yin. I see her coming in, riding on the dragon.

Quan Yin: Well, hello, Rob! You said you wanted to do something fun, so let’s just go for a ride. Come on, hop on board. Let’s go. We can talk while flying. You didn’t get to go sailing this weekend due to the weather, but that’s okay. You can take a ride on a dragon anytime you want. When it’s pouring rain outside, climb into your comfy chair [and] just go for a ride.

And as with sailing, just feel the wind on your face, see the sunlight shimmering on the water, see the patterns in the clouds. Life doesn’t need to be any more serious than this.

As others have said, it’s all a projection. It’s whatever it is that you want to make it. If you’ve had enough of the day-to-day world, as it were, and you just want to go have some fun, then do that. Let your imagination run wild, but in doing so, remember this is just as real to you, to your mind, as anything that you’re experiencing in the so-called “real world,” for it is no more real. The trick is convincing yourself of that.

And I would suggest that the more you take such opportunities to play, to allow your imagination to run wild, that over time, more and more, you will realize it’s all the same.

You get to choose the experiences you want to have, and this will be so important for the days to come. As you acknowledged at the beginning, events are happening in the world quickly now. It’s getting a little crazy. This is all necessary. The systems that have been put in place by the collective of humanity for so long are all starting to collapse, to come to their natural end.

But even in using the word “collapse,” that’s nothing … should be nothing fearful. [There should be] no sense of destruction — they are simply coming to their natural end. The old systems that no longer serve must come to an end to make way for that which is SO much better, so much more enjoyable and uplifting and supportive of all of humanity!

So while it may feel tense for some in the process, just keep coming back to [the fact that] YOU get to choose what the new will be — all of you collectively. What is it that you want life to be? It can be anything. You’ve heard it many times before: dream big, for nothing is out of reach.

You all, in particular, are there to convince others how much fun this process can actually be … so long as you don’t get wrapped up in the illusory events that are playing out in front of you. Let them come; let them go. Watch it as you would watch a movie, except as you’re sitting there in that darkened theater, you get to choose what happens next … and the universe will respond. Have fun with it.

And if at all gets to be a bit overwhelming, again, find that comfy chair, pull up a dragon, hop on board, and let’s soar through the clouds, anytime you choose. I hope you can all find your own dragon or your own magical creature, whatever that may be.

I wonder if any of your teammates have any questions for me before I go?
