When Jeanne, my first wife, left her human form, she came to me in a song and asked me to pray for her. What that meant was for me to keep the dream of us, as we had been in this life, fresh and alive in my consciousness, as a touchstone for her, as she opened to her unfolding, ethereal Odyssey in infinity, solely in spirit form.
She advanced rapidly as she learned of her vaster journey through infinity, of which our dream had been but a moment. She then came to me again, and this time asked me to not stay attached to old ideas of us, as our thoughts of others are suggestions that weigh upon their consciousnesses, binding them to old ideas of themselves, whether in human or spirit form.
Withdrawing my attachment to old ideas of us freed her energy, as well as my own, to experience a far greater connection to who she more fully was, and is continually becoming, beyond the prior specialness of us.
Opening to this new relationship also allowed me to be pointed in directions of discovery that have broadened my knowing of self and the collective dream of our time. Most everything that Jan and I put out on this website reflects Jeanne’s lessons for our world, as they have come to us, in spirit, in this time of great change.
The occasion of physical death is a unique opportunity to open the door to more, as we leave the physical body behind and fully embody a far more subtle energy body.
Although we retain our pure love for all whom we leave behind at death, we also release each other from old roles and expectations. This allows us full freedom to employ our attention in the adventure and exploration of expanded reality.
The issue of discovering and settling into an expanded identity is paramount to continued growth beyond human form. We have that same opportunity of expansion while in human form, if we are willing to stalk it.
Stalking is a shamanic practice, where, like in acting, one fully embodies a role or identity to the point of almost forgetting the familiar habitual self of everyday life.
The wisdom for manifesting, as discovered by prominent New Thought teachers, is to fully live as if that which one desires is indeed already fully present in one’s life. This involves the faith that it is so, as well as the joy and gratitude for it being so.
This stalking behavior is a powerful suggestion, from the conscious mind to the subconscious mind, that this is the reality to be manifested. The imagination becomes the architect of physical experience. We become what we believe ourselves to be.
The practice of stalking is a powerful suggestion to the subconscious mind that has the power to actualize anything.
The magic of the manifestation is in the hands of the subconscious mind, not in the acting quality of the actor. What matters most is the sincerity of the imagination, as it truly opens to the door to more.
The message I have most powerfully received, and live by, is that everything is indeed possible, if you can fully stalk it in your imagination.
Believing is seeing,
