			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><img class="size-full wp-image-322  aligncenter" title="Daisy_Growth" src="http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Flower_Growth.jpg" alt="Daisy_Growth" width="426" height="282" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I am not sure how many of you are familiar with Ezine.com. Basically it is a site where you submit&#8230;as the original author, articles that are then approved and posted. Others can go in grab your article and as long as they do not change anything, can publish it on their own website or blog.</p>
<p>The very first article I wrote for this site was called &#8220;Using the Law of Attraction to Manifest Your Dreams and Ideas.&#8221;  Although I have numerous other articles posted, this one continues to receive the most views and votes.</p>
<p>Since we have just started a New Year and most of us have dreams and ideas we want manifested, I thought it the perfect time to republish this article on this site, and since I am the original author that should not be a problem&#8230;;)</p>
<p>So, here we go&#8230;.<strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">DREAM BIG</span></strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>IN 2010</strong></span><span style="color: #ff0000;">!</span></p>
<div id="body">
<p><strong>There is a lot of talk these days about the Law of Attraction.</strong> People are being led to believe that by simply desiring something they can manifest it. Nothing could be further from the truth. In order to manifest anything we must complete this law in its entirety. Exercising part of the law will not get the job done.</p>
<p>How many of you are sitting on unrealized dreams? How many great ideas and dreams of success have you had that never materialized?</p>
<p>There is a Universal principle that applies to success&#8230;in any endeavor. There is one single thing that will manifest our ideas and dreams, and without putting this principle into effect, our ideas and dreams remain just that&#8230;ideas and dreams.</p>
<p><strong>This simple but necessary element of the Law of Attraction is <span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>action</em></span>.</strong> The Law of Attraction is fine and dandy, but you are not going to manifest anything by sitting there daydreaming&#8230;I can assure you of that.  The one word that is hidden within attraction&#8230;is the <span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>power</em></span></span> behind the law of attraction. That word is <span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>ACTION</em>!</span></p>
<p><em>In order to attract&#8230;we must act!</em></p>
<p><strong>We must understand that we live in the physical world and as such&#8230;<em>must play by the rules</em>. </strong>In this physical world of ours everything is vibration. If you take everything back to it&#8217;s humble beginnings, strip it of it&#8217;s physical properties, what you have left is vibration. How did it become a physical reality? Someone took action and created it.<strong> </strong>Without that action step&#8230;it would not have been created in the physical realm. Simple as that.<strong> </strong>That chair you are sitting in was an &#8216;idea&#8217; in someones mind and would have remained an idea&#8230;but, someone took <span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>action</em></span> and manifested it in the physical realm.</p>
<p><em><span style="color: #000000;">Everything physical is energy, energy is vibration and vibration is ~movement~</span></em></p>
<p><strong>So, there&#8217;s our biggest clue to manifesting&#8230;movement.</strong> Exactly how does this apply in our own lives? When we have an idea or dream&#8230;in order to bring it into manifestation&#8230;in order to bring it into the physical realm, we must create <strong>~</strong><em>movement</em><strong>~</strong> in the physical realm. How do we do that? By taking <em>action</em>.<span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Ideas are wonderful and so are dreams&#8230;but, they live in a different realm.</span></em><strong> </strong>They do not live in the physical realm. In order to bring them into the physical realm we must do what? Create movement. How do we do that? By taking action.</p>
<p><strong>The greatest enemy to realizing our dreams and ideas is fear.</strong> Fear keeps people from taking the most important step of all in the <em>act</em> of manifesting&#8230;<em>action</em>. Fear never kept anyone from dreaming or coming up with exceptional ideas&#8230;but, fear keeps most people from realizing these dreams in the physical realm because they are afraid to take that <span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>action step</em></span> to manifest them.</p>
<p>Fear is a component of the ego. The ego does not want you to realize the power you have within you to create your dreams and ideas. The ego also knows that once you realize your place as &#8216;creator,&#8217; its life as ruler is short lived. It then becomes the servant it was intended to be&#8230;to serve your needs.</p>
<p>Strip the ego of the crown you have given it. This crown belongs to you.</p>
<p>There are also a couple of elements within the &#8216;action step&#8217; that you must adhere to in order to realize your dreams. You must be persistent. Tell the Universe how serious you are by your persistent actions.<strong> </strong>Your goals and dreams manifest by taking consistent and persistent <em>action</em> steps. Keep pushing forward until one day you&#8217;ve reached &#8220;critical mass&#8221;  you wake up and your dream is in physical form.</p>
<p>No matter what your dream, idea or ambition is the same rules apply. <em>Remember, we live in the physical realm and we must play by the rules.</em> Manifest your dreams and ideas by taking action&#8230;put them in <em>motion</em><strong>.</strong></p>
<p>We have been given a grand gift by the creator. That gift is the power to create. It is the single reason we were created. To create.</p>
<p>Honor the Universe for such a grand gift. Become the conscious creator you were created to be.</p>
<p>There is nothing you cannot achieve&#8230;if you can dream it, you can achieve it else why would the creator allow you to dream it? That would be a cruel game&#8230;allowing us to dream things that we are not allowed to manifest. Dreams, ideas and visions&#8230;.your imagination is where it starts. But, you must follow through with <strong><em>action</em></strong> on this plane if you want it manifested in this realm.</p>
<p><strong>If you can dream it&#8230;.you can manifest it&#8230;.BUT you must play by the rules </strong> <img src='http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  Just watch nature&#8230;nature always plays by the rules. The daisy above would never have manifested if nature had not watered it first and fed it light. Nature plays by the rules and we must also.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Look around you.  Is there anything within your visual space that was created without an action step?<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s hoping that you have <strong>GRAND VISIONS</strong> for 2010. Find out what action steps are needed to manifest these visions and then persistently and consistently go after it! You must prove to the Universe your RESOLVE!</p>
<p>Thank you everyone for stopping by and visiting us. We value each and everyone of you. Please leave us a comment and let us know what you think.</p>
<p>I hope this blog post helps everyone to get off on the right foot heading into this new year. Remember, the Universe is a very ordered place and we must play by the rules <img src='http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Abundant Gratitude and Blessings for a fabulous 2010!</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Things have been a bit quiet here at Physically Immortal the last few weeks. Tis the season when it seems that all the spare time that one has is stolen away for some sort of seasonal task.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>O Holy Night has long been my favorite Christmas song.</strong> If there ever was a perfect rendition of it then Celine Dion would be my pick. Her voice is proof that there is indeed a powerful God as he often uses it to touch others&#8230;sometimes breaking down barriers that have been put in place to protect us from our own feelings. This song can generate swells of tears as easily as any for me&#8230;.it touches me so deeply. How she reaches some of those notes is truly a miracle unto itself! What a glorious gift!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Take a few moments to listen&#8230;close your eyes and allow the notes to penetrate deep into your soul. Let the sound flood your body with light. You will be moved.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Let it be a moment of complete surrender. Give yourself over totally to the vibration and let it wash through every cell of your entire being. Now you know what &#8216;healing&#8217; feels like.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">After the holidays are over, this blog will resume its normal schedule of publishing. Until then, enJOY this most blessed time of year with your family and friends&#8230;.know that you are in our hearts and we are full of gratitude that you take the time to come here and share with us.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Celebrate the birth of your Christ. Celebrate your divine heritage. Celebrate your Immortality. Glorify God in the highest way possible by recognizing and honoring your GodSelf. He has waited eons for your return within.<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">May 2010 be the year of many sweet surprises for you and may <strong>Peace and Prosperity</strong> rule your life in the New Year.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Thank you for allowing us to bask in your ever growing, expanding&#8230;electrifying <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>LIGHT</strong></span> of the ONE true God.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">As we head into yet another New Year I would like to take this opportunity to thank my Immortal partner on this path Suzen for 30 plus years of spiritual growth and friendship. We have a special bond&#8230;no bond goes deeper, for we share the moment of our awakening and opening to our own Immortality. Is there any moment deeper than that?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>We are now building what we have dreamed about for so many years</strong> and with the Grace of God we will continue to attract those that resonate with the words and beliefs taught to us. This project has only just begun! We have a <strong>Grand Vision!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>So much love&#8230;from our hearts to yours,<br />
</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-265" title="Alice in Wonderland Caterpillar" src="http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/caterpillar2.jpg" alt="Alice in Wonderland Caterpillar" width="265" height="400" />In my last post, I mentioned the caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland who asked Alice, the proverbial, universal question, “Who are you”? </strong> Alice was quite befuddled and I bet many<br />
of us are when asked the very same elemental, yet profound question.</p>
<p><strong>Knock, Knock who is there?</strong></p>
<p>I submit that part and parcel of our spiritual journey is that very quest; traveling the inward journey to discover who we truly are.  There are many models to employ in navigating the unknown terrain of our mysterious inner world.  What are the forces inside our psyche that gives our power away, assists us in decision making, relates to authority, controls our defense mechanisms or encourages/kills our dreams? Who is it that we dialogue with when our patterns are operative and in full swing?  They are entitled Archetypes, energies that are employed to defend our issues/wounds or guardian angels who create alchemy for our highest good.</p>
<p><strong>Archetypes are our friends and allies who our souls fraternize with in our collective and individual unconscious along life’s journey.</strong> These essential forces are innate to the experience of humankind and integral to our life’s lessons.  Depending upon the contract our soul agreed to, we invite and attract four universal and other primal energies to teach and guide us along the way.</p>
<p><strong>What we do not observe has power over us.</strong></p>
<p>If there is a part of us that is hidden, that we are in denial about, that which is too painful for us to see, does it have control over us?  Perhaps, and if so, as workers of the light, is it not our prime responsibility to shine the light with open heartedness and courage on anything that is blocking or veiling us from being and recognizing all that we are?  This part of us, the part we are in denial of is called the shadow.  It is the part of us that we can see in others, not ourselves.  It is the part we project onto those in our path and choose not to see in ourselves.</p>
<p>Would it not be prudent to identify our patterns and illuminate the energies that are functioning within our psyche?   Prodding into our psyches and self talk with the objective observer will free us from some of the veils that hinder the recognition of our true state, spirits of love and light.  If we do not understand the properties, qualities, resources, benefits or abilities that the new technologies contain, when operating them, we may only use a small percentage of what is available to us.  I believe that we may liken this to the 90% of our brain that is dormant, we live life with only 10% of the powers inherent.</p>
<p><strong>Universal Archetypes</strong></p>
<p>Carl Jung, an Austrian psychologist, studied with Freud and went on to create his theory about<br />
Archetypes.  They are the elemental universal forces that control our passions, desires, feelings,<br />
motivations, behaviors, actions, which imprint our personality and contain positive and negative aspects.  Each of us possess at least 12 that are individual to our essence and mankind engages with  four universal archetypes.  They are: the Victim, the Child, the Prostitute, and the Saboteur.  All four of the archetypes are paramount in our growth whether we are working negatively or positively with their qualities.  They are extremely important as defense mechanisms protecting us from pain until we are developmentally prepared to confront a particular aspect or energy pattern that controls<br />
us that we may be in denial of.</p>
<p><strong>The Victim </strong></p>
<p>The Victim cries out about how unfair life is when it deals cards we cannot accept.  It sees us as vulnerable and powerless and the only ones that are suffering.  Life or someone is the bully and we are defenseless creatures, poor unfortunate souls.  The positive aspect of the Victim alarms us to our wounds and weaknesses, our fear of getting hurt or victimized.  It urges us to step beyond one of the<br />
natural human feelings to remain paralyzed from fear when being oppressed.</p>
<p><strong>The Child</strong></p>
<p>The Child’s energies seeks to be dependent and taken care of.  It is the force that is fundamental in the energy that rules lack of responsibility and accountability, whereby the mature authority figure provides what is needed and gets the work done.  The polarity is the insight into what we need to become, like children in our faith, simplicity and purity.  The Child may forewarn us if we are moving into a damaging pattern that keeps us unaccountable or needy.</p>
<p><strong>The Prostitute</strong></p>
<p>The Prostitute is the compulsion to sell our soul to stay in the status quo or our comfort zones.  It is the energy that keeps us in a relationship, job, career, belief pattern, love interest, spiritual journey that no longer works for us because it is safe and in the harbor, so to speak.  When we recognize the prostitute archetype operating it will forewarn us that we are stagnant, in entropy, not facilitating the power and indwelling talent waiting to be unleashed.  It will nudge us towards our unique talent and the piece we have to offer to create the world we want to live in.</p>
<p><strong>The Saboteur</strong></p>
<p>Finally, the Saboteur, the ruler that defeats us when we are working towards a dream, creative license, intuition, or belief in ourselves.  It is the devil’s advocate that states, “you, who do you think you are”?  You are not smart enough, strong enough, do not have enough resources, attractive enough, to do….  You will fail badly… ”  When acknowledged and accepted the saboteur will counsel us to beware of our fear of success, our fear of failure, that you may have what you dream, see what you imagine, taste what you desire.  The Saboteur educates us that no one wins when we hide our light under a bushel.</p>
<p><strong>Transforming the Personality</strong></p>
<p>Do you wanna’ dance under the moonlight… it is time to take your archetypes by the hand and<br />
dance, dance dance.  Discern who you are dancing with daily, create an ally, another spiritual guide to assist you in the magical adventure of truly learning who you are and what your life mission is.  This exploration will lead you to a clearer more lucid understanding of the energies that you abide with. Once you have stared them in the eye, they will support your transformation and mentor you in completing your contract, sealing your mission and living your dream.</p>
<p>Remember a few of the transfiguring edicts the great teachers and masters gave forth as pathfinders for our ultimate good: “To thine own self be true”, “knowledge is power”, and the answer to “who are you?” may be to pioneer the path to “know thyself”.  When we have a deep inner knowing of our Being, we curtail and eventually cease judgment; allowing us to walk the walk of the Christ, only seeing God in all, considering that to judge is to overlook our omnipresent God.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>I was thinking of this poem not too long ago&#8230;</strong>another of my favorites and wondered where this little gem might be hiding out. Having moved extensively over years past I just wasn&#8217;t sure where I may have stored it. But, I knew that it said something simply and beautifully&#8230;.something I wanted to say.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It wasn&#8217;t long after I had those thoughts&#8230;.while rummaging through some stuff&#8230;looking for something else that I came upon it. Well, of course the Universe took care that I would find it so that I can share it with all the beautiful, receptive souls that find their way here.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Companionship</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">When with a brother,<br />
And we are all brothers</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">Talk not always of things serious and requisite<br />
But respond to the spirit of him with whom you speak,</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">And be he light and carefree, be you likewise.<br />
But be receptive to his inner nature</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">And partake of his wisdom and love.<br />
Should you sense a yearning</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">Give him a glimpse of the flower of <em>your</em> dreams.<br />
But if he responds not to its beauty and fragrance</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">Go blissfully on your way. However,<br />
Should he be struck with the allure of the blossom</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">Show him freely  all the wonderful flowers of your garden.<br />
And speak with him of the invisible Divinity which</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">Encompasses and interpenetrates us all,<br />
And let him feel the love you bear him</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;">As a brother and a precious child of God,<br />
On his lonesome journey to self-knowledge and freedom.</span></p>

</span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I remember after my  awakening over 30 years ago that I wanted everyone to know what I knew&#8230;I was so excited about it. My intentions were honorable&#8230;but I soon learned that everyone was on a different level of understanding and that every level was as important as the next.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>I was soon shown that we must never proselyte.</strong> When someone is ready to hear what we have to share, they will be brought into our world and we will know. If we pay attention  and connect with our  higher selves the right words will come.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Truth requires no push, no pull and no force&#8230;ever. </strong> It will come naturally in conversation&#8230;when the soul is receptive to receive it&#8230;.at whatever level it needs it.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Keep your eyes and ears open and aware for those that may be brought your way to share <strong><em>your</em></strong> nuggets of gold.  Furthermore, be open to anyone that may be brought <em>your<strong> </strong></em>way&#8230;.to share <strong><em>their</em></strong> nuggets of gold.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>But, never proselyte!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Be receptive to others inner yearnings and remain open to receive and learn&#8230;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Everything is divine and everything is made of God material&#8230;honor all of it.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I wonder&#8230;if others were not in the exact position they are in, at the exact level of understanding they  presently have&#8230;.would you be where you are? Doesn&#8217;t the puzzle always fit perfectly? For it to be whole each piece must play their role&#8230;.every role is equal in importance.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Everything really is perfect&#8230;.if we have &#8220;eyes to see&#8230;.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Remember, Truth and Peace go hand in hand&#8230;.always! You can&#8217;t have one without the other.</strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="color: #800080;">Esoteric Value</span></strong><br />
<strong><br />
Please join me</strong> in what I feel is great fun; gleaning from fairy tales their esoteric significance.  By esoteric, my intention is to imply hidden meaning, as in the opposite of exoteric, that which is obvious and seen.  Fairy Tales have been recorded since the beginning of time and the genre was classified as fairy tales in the 17th century.  The tales include elements of magic, enchantment, out of the ordinary and out of the box imagery, to name a few.  Characters are talking animals, trees, plants, etc. and come and go like the wind, neither knowing where they came from or where they are going. Now Isn&#8217;t that perfect fodder for our spiritual journeys?</p>
<p>For me, Fairy Tales mirror our explorations and discovery of life&#8217;s basic questions,  mirror universal law,  existential questions,  and evoke queries that urge us on to higher states of consciousness.   So,  please join me in the analysis and critiquing of one of my favorite metaphorical vignettes.  Let me know what hidden meanings you interpret from your favorite allegories.</p>
<p><strong>Alice in Wonderland is a wonderland of scholarly interpretations.</strong> I have heard many different perspectives from psychedelic trips, Freudian implications, politics, mathematics, to philosophy etc. Lewis Carroll&#8217;s wild ride is a treasure of Spirit and humanness.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800080;">Mirroring</span></strong></p>
<p>Many of us have encountered the confusion felt when looking in a mirror and losing the ability to know the left from the right,  where right appears as left or writing is reversed, all the while looking identical to what is reflected<br />
Alice drinks from the “Drink Me” bottle filling the entire room with her whole Being so that there is no space for anything else.  She sighs and states, “Oh, you foolish Alice!&#8217; &#8216;How can you learn lessons in here? Why, there&#8217;s hardly room for you, and no room at all for any lesson-books!”<br />
This is a clear mirror for what happens to us when we are in our victim mode or full of ourselves.<br />
When our attention is so focused on self, there is no room for learning no opportunity for  growth because it is taken over by the separate self.  Her experiences with changing from extreme size, big to very little educates her on the benefits and disadvantages of our ego trips.  This is just one example of Lewis Carroll’s use of opposites.<br />
As we have heard before in posts, the opposites define each other, we would not know sad without happy, cold without hot, good without evil.  How about a birthday necessitating an unbirthday?</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Comfort and Trust with Transformation</strong></span></p>
<p>“Who are you purrs the caterpillar”? to Alice.  &#8216;I &#8211; I hardly know, Sir, just at present I know &#8211; at least I know who I was when I got up in this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then. I can&#8217;t understand my self, to begin with; and being so many different sizes in a day is very confusing.”<br />
The caterpillar knows full well who he is and what his transformation will do to and for him.  He does not for one moment doubt or fear this process which at a specific developmental time begins with the change to a chrysalis and then a butterfly.  He is aware that it is normal and expected.  That this state will not change his unique individuality or essence.  We do not lose anything in this change, we are all we were and so much more.. Alice reflects our doubts, fears and concerns of transformation when she declares, “I wonder if I&#8217;ve changed in the night? Let me think; was I the same when I got up this morning? But if I am not the same, who in the world am I ?”  How soothing would it be to have full trust and cognizance in our process of transformation, ascension, translation?  How sweet it is, to relax into the natural process of becoming light and love because we realize what we are as the caterpillar is urging.  Who are you, do you know?</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>The Stressed Out Life – Can we hear the Silence?</strong></span></p>
<p>I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date<br />
No time to say &#8220;Hello&#8221;, goodbye!<br />
I&#8217;m late!<br />
I&#8217;m late!<br />
I&#8217;m late!</p>
<p>I run and then I hop hop hop<br />
I wish that I could fly<br />
There&#8217;s danger if I dare to stop and here&#8217;s the reason why…<br />
A stressed rabbit who wishes he could fly, hmmm does anyone resemble that sentiment?  Ah, so simple, just like Alice blowing up in the room where there is no space for anything else but her.  Alice chases to see where, why and what the white rabbit is late for when he does not even know, portraying the frivolity of our fast paced stressed out life.  How is one to hear the silence?  What is your priority?</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>The Wise Ones</strong></span></p>
<p>And then there is the grinning Cheshire Cat of the Duchess who I submit is likened to a Master, one who has overcome, who comes and goes from what seems nowhere and is the only creature that listens and educates Alice. &#8220;`Cheshire Puss, Alice chants. “Come, it&#8217;s pleased so far, would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”<br />
”That depends a good deal on where you want to get to, Cheshire smiles,<br />
”I don&#8217;t much care where”<br />
`Then it doesn&#8217;t matter which way you go,” chides cat<br />
”…so long as I get somewhere,” urges Alice.<br />
”Oh, you&#8217;re sure to do that,&#8217; said the Cat, `if you only walk long enough.&#8217;&#8221;<br />
&#8220;`But I don&#8217;t want to go among mad people,” cries Alice.<br />
”Oh, you can&#8217;t help that,&#8217; said the Cat: “we&#8217;re all mad here. I&#8217;m mad. You&#8217;re mad.”<br />
The Wise Ones will never tell us what to do, where to go, or how to think.  They simply ask questions emphasizing that all of the answers are within ourselves.<br />
They will not judge, their only intention is to urge us to a closer walk with that still inner voice, our connection with the Divine.<br />
So if the boat does not have a rudder, it will get somewhere but not necessarily where one may have wanted, if they had a plan.  “You cannot discover new oceans if you do not have the courage to lose site of the shore.”  And of course, this ever changing, ever evolving world is our open book and where we go will always teach us, it may just take a bit longer. Yet, isn’t it about having the right tools in making it a joyous ride?  I just renovated a bathroom and the correct tools made oh so much difference!</p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>It’s Your Turn</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">I perceive the theme of Alice in Wonderland to awaken the process of inquiry within.  The instinct to question  everything, taking the query within to the still small voice and let it work within us to a state of knowing, the state of Grace that is Faith.  Alice taught me that everything that seems to be is not and that which isn&#8217;t really is.</span><br />
</span></p>
<p>Okay, now it is your turn, lets have some fun…   <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-215" title="Suzen" src="http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Suzen32.jpg" alt="Suzen" width="78" height="99" /> Suzen</p>

<p><strong>CHAPTER ONE</strong><br />
<strong>The Guru and the Student </strong>were sitting together in quiet contemplation, and the Student spoke up,<br />
saying, &#8220;I know we&#8217;ve covered this before, but I&#8217;m going to ask this question once again but with<br />
my new understanding behind the question.&#8221;<br />
The Guru whispered: &#8220;Go right ahead.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;What am I?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;You are the Creator localized.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;Who am I?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;Do you mean right this moment?&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;Yes.&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;You are the Creator localized who just spoke the word &#8216;Yes&#8217;.&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;And nothing more?&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;So much more you do not have the capacity to comprehend.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;Why am I?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;You are God&#8217;s desire for expression in form, and you are your creation and your<br />
creation is you, of you, by you and for you.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;What is the purpose of creation?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;More to the point: what is the purpose of its opposite?&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;If its opposite is destruction, its opposite has no purpose.&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;Yes, which means that if something has no purpose, it has no existence, leaving<br />
One True Thing. If there is only One True Thing, it and its purpose are also one and the same.&#8221;<br />
Student:<strong> &#8220;So what is creation?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;It is simply the act of creating.&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;But why?&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;What else is there to do? I think, therefore I create, a process that never, ever,<br />
stops. Without it, you have nothing. And who wants nothing when you can have something?<br />
Creation is thought in action. So whatever you think about, you create.&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;If there is but One True Thing, that which is created is one and the same as that<br />
which created it.&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;Well said.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;What precedes Creation?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;Desire.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;What precedes desire?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;Nothing.&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;So desire is cause?&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;Desire is the only cause, first cause.&#8221;<br />
Student: <strong>&#8220;How do I then create?&#8221;</strong><br />
Guru: &#8220;One, desire it; two, picture it; three, command that which you picture to come into<br />
being. Desire, imagination and the ability to command are God&#8217;s trinity of primary attributes. If you<br />
can do these things, then you are God, and therefore are the Doer, the Doing, and the Done.&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;Then I am not a co-creator with God, as all these New Agers like to say?&#8221;<br />
Guru: &#8220;&#8216;Co-&#8217; implies two, does it not?&#8221;<br />
Student: &#8220;I guess so.&#8221;</p>
<p>continued&#8230;..</p>
<p>I hope this has wet your appetite enough to want to read more&#8230;.of one of the most enlightening pieces of material I have read in my 30 plus years of &#8220;search and discovery.&#8221; For 3 plus years I was a student in a School called First Wave (some people refer to these schools as Mystery Schools&#8230;well, there really is  no mystery at all&#8230;only as we keep this info from ourselves because it is readily available when we are ready for it) with lessons taught by Jason Davis.  As everything does, it came at the right time in my life because I was at the point of the marriage of science and spirit. I resonated strongly with his teachings as they took spiritual matters and clarified how they played out in the physical realm&#8230;.very clearly.</p>
<p>Jason does not beat around the bush or try to feed you what you might <em>want</em> to hear. He teaches TRUTH in the most honest upfront manner&#8230;always living in his integrity. If you are truly ready to hear TRUTH that is not watered down&#8230;if you are ready to experience TRUTH to the point of true mind expansion, if you are ready for the marriage of science and spirit (yes folks, Truth is a marriage of science and spirit&#8230;you can&#8217;t have one without the other)&#8230;then here is the download link:</p>

God and I in space alone
And nobody else in view.
&#8220;And where are the people, O Lord!&#8221; I said.
&#8220;The earth below and the sky o&#8217;erhead
And the dead whom once I knew?&#8221;
&#8220;That was a dream,&#8221; God smiled and said,

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>God and I in space alone<br />
And nobody else in view.<br />
&#8220;And where are the people, O Lord!&#8221; I said.<br />
&#8220;The earth below and the sky o&#8217;erhead<br />
And the dead whom once I knew?&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>&#8220;That was a dream,&#8221; God smiled and said,<br />
&#8220;A dream that seemed to be true,<br />
There were no people, living or dead,<br />
There was no earth and no sky o&#8217;erhead<br />
There was only Myself in you.&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>&#8220;Why do I feel no fear,&#8221; I asked,<br />
&#8220;Meeting you here in this way,<br />
For I have sinned I know full well,<br />
And there is heaven and there is hell,<br />
And is this the judgment day?&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>&#8220;Nay, those were dreams,&#8221; the great God said,<br />
&#8220;Dreams that have ceased to be.<br />
There are no such things as fear or sin,<br />
There is no you-you have never been-<br />
There is nothing at all but Me.&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">Isn&#8217;t Truth absolutely SIMPLE!</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">Ella has long been my favorite female poet&#8230;her poems radiate Truth in the simplest of terms&#8230;.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">The day must come when &#8220;fear and sin&#8221; will have no meaning to you anymore. When you begin &#8220;seeing,&#8221; there will be no divisions&#8230;you will know everything as ONE MOVEMENT forward&#8230;forever evolving.<br />
</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">And, you will &#8220;see&#8221; things perfectly&#8230;</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Be still and know that I am G</span><span style="color: #000000;">od&#8221;</span></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">Be grateful for all things&#8230;for all things&#8230;when you trace them back to their very beginnings&#8230;past molecules and atoms&#8230;past quantum particles to their humble start you &#8220;see&#8221; that everything comes from the same source.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">There is only ONE&#8230;.Quit labeling things.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">And Love&#8230;.</span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-61" title="Me" src="http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Me1.png" alt="Me" width="115" height="119" /><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-63" title="Suzen" src="http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Suzen3.png" alt="Suzen" width="119" height="142" />Ok, now that we&#8217;ve established that an open mind is imperative to any kind of inner growth, with this post, I&#8217;d like to take the time to explain a bit of my background and how I came to <strong>KNOW Immortality.</strong></p>
<p>For me, the beginning starts in childhood. I cannot ever remember wanting to know anything as much as I wanted to know about God. I only mention this fact so that you can see that even as a child I was enamored with God.  I was born into this life knowing that my life would somehow center around God&#8230;even as a child I knew this although I did not yet know the path it would take.</p>
<p>Fast forward to the year 1977. I had known Suzen for a couple of years and it wasn&#8217;t long before Suzen and I discovered that we shared the same thirst to &#8220;know&#8221; God. Suzen said to me one day &#8220;Kathy, pray for Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding.&#8221; And, so I did. Soon after, I found myself in my bedroom  screaming at God&#8230;&#8221;You want me to glorify you&#8230;and I don&#8217;t even know you&#8230;.how do I glorify something I don&#8217;t know?&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>I got my answer!</strong> Suzen and I were in the basement reading in the bible one night (I was not that familiar with the bible having spent very little time reading it to that point) when suddenly I was <strong>compelled</strong> (I don&#8217;t know how else to put it) to grab the book away from Suzen and turn back to a certain page (it was as though the pages themselves were turning as I had no inclination as to why I was turning those pages&#8230;I had nothing in mind that I was turning to.) Without speaking any words to one another Suzen and I found ourselves reading the same passage on the page&#8230;.(I have never shared this passage with anyone because it was so special to me&#8230;but if you keep reading I reveal it today)&#8230;.Soon Suzen bolted up off the couch and ran upstairs.  I was seconds behind her. The words we had just read literally <strong>&#8220;lightening bolted off the page&#8221;</strong> and into our hearts&#8230;shifting our consciousness in a dramatic way. We both knew it had happened, but I don&#8217;t quite know how to  put it into words except to say that <strong>I felt it and so did Suzen</strong>. At the top of the stairs we just looked at one another and said &#8220;did you feel that?&#8221; We were both shook up but didn&#8217;t know the depth of what had happened yet.</p>
<p>The next day we headed off to a metaphysical bookstore and asked to be guided by the Holy Spirit.  We were both rewarded with a special book &#8220;Wisdom of the Ages&#8221; and our lives have never been the same since.</p>
<p>I had awakened to my own Immortality as Suzen had.  And, given the fact that it was over 30 years ago&#8230;no Internet to find people to share it with&#8230;no books to gather from general bookstores (they are barely touching on the subject of metaphysics now&#8230;you can imagine back then!)&#8230;we had to order books from DeVorss an Co. I know that God had Suzen and I share that experience and start our journey together just as he sent the apostles out together in twos&#8230;.to give each other strength against an unbelieving world.  After all, what we were shown&#8230;what we believed was opposite of everything that was being taught!</p>
<p>At least we had each other&#8230;and, for that my heart is full.  No matter what the world was saying I knew that Suzen knew&#8230;and that gave me strength at times.  But I will say this&#8230;in all the years, through everything I&#8217;ve been through in life, I have never once&#8230;.<strong>NEVER ONCE </strong>doubted what was shown to me.  You see, it lives in my heart.  It was something I woke to within me. It is a &#8216;knowing&#8217; and you cannot defend a &#8216;knowing&#8217; for it lives within&#8230;.it simply is.</p>
<p>Soon I found myself at Suzen&#8217;s house in Florida and she handed me the book &#8220;Ye Are Gods&#8221; by Annalee Skarin.  She said, &#8220;Kathy, you have to read this.&#8221; So, that night I gathered my new book and headed up to the guest room to read. Once again, the hand of God was in control and the book fell open to the chapter titled &#8220;And There Shall Be No More Death!&#8221; It was the first time I saw in print what I knew in my heart and what Jesus so generously came to show us&#8230;that death has no power over us.</p>
<p>And so, the journey began. Now, over 30 years later I finally have a platform to share what lives so joyously in my heart.</p>
<p><strong>It is time to share that magical passage</strong>&#8230;for anyone who might be led to it&#8230;.<br />
Here is that passage from Matthew Chapter 13 The Parable of The Seed&#8230;.</p>
<p>chapter 13/13&#8230;.(His answer to the disciples as to why he speaks in parables to the masses)&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;I use parables when I speak to them because they look<br />
but they do not see, they listen but they do not hear or understand,<br />
look intently as you will, you shall not see.<br />
Sluggish indeed is this people&#8217;s heart<br />
They have scarely heard with their ears,<br />
they have firmly closed their eyes;<br />
otherwise they might see with their eyes,<br />
and hear with their ears,<br />
and understand with their hearts,<br />
and turn back to me,<br />
and I should heal them.&#8217;</p>
<p>But blest are your  eyes because they see and blest are your ears<br />
because they hear.  I assure you, many a prophet and many a saint<br />
longed to see what you see but did not see it, to hear what you<br />
hear but did not hear it.&#8221;</p>
<p>So the journey  continues&#8230;.infinitely, eternally.  For God always was, is and will be forever more.  And, you are God and God is you and we are ONE.</p>
<p>Thanks for allowing me to share my story.</p>
<p>Stay tuned because Suzen will be posting the next installment&#8230;.I haven&#8217;t seen it yet but I am excited <img src='http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Infinitely Yours in JOY&#8230;.</p>
<p>Kathy</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-41" title="galaxy" src="http://physicallyimmortal.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/galaxy-300x256.jpg" alt="galaxy" width="300" height="256" />There is only one topic that can possibly begin this blog journey, and that topic is an <strong> &#8220;open mind.&#8221;</strong> Without an open mind, you are stuck in an old worn out mindset of ideas that were mind-expanding at one time, but  are now stagnant, stale, used material that needs to be tossed out to make room for the new.</p>
<p>A closed mind is death.  An open mind is HOPE!</p>
<p>Life goes on folks&#8230;and so do ideas, dreams and visions. It is called evolution. And, this may come as a surprise to you, but YOU ARE IN TOTAL CONTROL. YOU are responsible for your own evolution.  There is not some great God outside of yourself  that is going to swoop in and save you because you gave to charities in your lifetime.</p>
<p>You are responsible for evolving yourself.  You and only you can evolve your being to greater heights by your imaginings and visions.  It is the imagination that took us out of caves, it is the imagination that took us across the ocean, it is the imagination that took us to the stars and it is this same imagination that will evolve us into Immortal Beings&#8230;.and my imagination cannot even comprehend what is beyond that!</p>
<p>There are pioneers on this path.  Those that have exhausted everything taught to them from without.  They simply have a KNOWING that there is more.</p>
<p>They hunger and thirst for more&#8230;and, so they ask, they reach&#8230;they imagine, they envision the POSSIBILITIES. And, the greatest of these visions is an Immortal body.   They are ready to stand forth in their glory&#8230;the highest glory and the <strong>highest achievement for a mortal</strong>. <strong>The Glory of your own Immortality! Can you think of a better way to Glorify God?</strong></p>
<p><strong><span id="more-15"></span><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>The mortal reaching for immortality.</strong> It has to be for life does not stop&#8230;evolution does not stop and there will always be a path for those reaching for more&#8230;for those that hunger and thirst for Truth.</p>
<p>That is how you Glorify God&#8230;.by taking this body with your own desire, determination, faith, hope and belief and evolving it into the next stage of evolution&#8230;an Immortal Being of Light!</p>
<p>The imagination is what separates mankind from other created entities. Man is the only created being that can <strong>consciously</strong> make that decision for himself.  No other created creature has this ability.</p>
<p>Can you imagine if the Gods created the imagination and gave us this wonderful tool only to tell us that everything we imagined would have to stay as a vision in the mind,  never to see manifestation? What a torture that would be and what a waste.  The imagination would have no purpose! And what a cruel game that would be!</p>
<p>The Gods are not playing a game. The imagination does have a glorious purpose&#8230;.but, that purpose is not death.  That purpose is to take us to previously unimagined heights of glorious achievement, visions and dreams&#8230;worlds without end.</p>
<p>Understand this, you cannot imagine anything that cannot be achieved.  Just by virtue of the fact that you can imagine it&#8230;you can achieve it, for all things are already created and we are simply tapping into the storehouse of &#8220;all possibility.&#8221; We simply align ourselves with this force and bring it forth into manifestation&#8230;taking it from one realm and manifesting it in another.</p>
<p>What good is our imaginings if they are only pictures to tease us? We need to give the Gods more credit than this.  This is not about some game they are playing with us&#8230;..tease us with an imagination that has no purpose other than to imagine ideas and dreams that are not creatable?  Use your common sense.  That simply does not make sense.</p>
<p>Your imagination is your greatest gift and used for higher purposes will take you beyond anything you previously thought impossible&#8230;.<strong>including death.</strong></p>
<p>So, for those of you who have landed here with an open mind, hang on because it&#8217;s going to be a<strong> &#8220;magic carpet ride&#8221;</strong> as you expand your reality to include &#8220;all possibility.&#8221;</p>
<p>For those others who still have doubts I say, don&#8217;t take my word for it,  turn within and stop trusting in the &#8220;arm of flesh.&#8221; Go within and ask your God for the Truth. He waits patiently for your attention&#8230;when you have exhausted all outside chases. He and only he should be your guide and your Truth.</p>
<p>Yes, we must thirst and hunger for Truth.  We must desire to know God (you can call this Higher Wisdom anything you want) with all our hearts, minds, souls and strength&#8230;not just know &#8220;about God.&#8221;</p>
<p>When understanding <strong>&#8220;who you are and why you are here&#8221;</strong> becomes the <strong>predominant force in your life</strong>&#8230;.and you turn within to your God and you ask&#8230;.then and only then will you be given the answers. YOU have to want it, YOU have to desire it, YOU have to bring it into manifestation <strong>by the sheer force of your WILL.</strong> <strong>YOU are the catalyst that connects you with Universal Thought&#8230;.All Possibility!</strong></p>
<p><strong>WILL your Immortality into existence. You are a child of God&#8230;this is your inheritance&#8230;.</strong>and, the only thing it is waiting for is<strong> your WILL to achieve it!</strong></p>
<p>I can only imagine what Glories are in store for us beyond our own Immortality!  Those too will be revealed to us as we spiral onwards&#8230;infinitely pushing forward into eternity, worlds without end.</p>
<p>I AM on for the ride&#8230;how about you?</p>
<p>Kathy</p>
<p>Thanks for visiting. I hope you have found &#8220;food for thought.&#8221; Please feel free to comment&#8230;I  welcome any and all comments. And I hope you&#8217;ll come back often!</p>
