Looking For Myself

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.]

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?
