Good morning and happy Friday friends. I hope you’ve all had a good week! I had my spring break from my school job this week, which sadly didn’t align with my daughter’s spring break. I opened my calendar and just ended up doing a bunch of readings, now called Sacred Soul Sessions, that went great. I also went to the gym, had lunch with a friend, ran some errands. It was a good week! Next week it’s back to work, though now I’m thinking about possibly changing my work schedule for the next school year and offering more days for my healing work.
The Conversations with God books by Neale Donald Walsch helped me tremendously during my Spiritually Transformative Experience (STE). I would alternate reading my textbooks and articles for graduate school with reading Books One, Two, and Three of the Conversations with God series, which had been published by the time my STE started.
These books truly helped me to make sense of what was happening to me. I read them voraciously. I even flew out to Oregon a few years ago to attend a workshop with Neale, and have attended some of his online classes. He was very funny and interested in what the light had to say to me, with total acceptance and no judgment about my spiritual experiences. Acceptance and lack of judgment is one of the best parts of being around other spiritual experiencers!
A few years ago the Fourth book to the Conversations with God series came out, called Awaken the Species. I’ve been thinking about this book as I watch what’s happening in our world. It’s definitely a book worth exploring if you’re looking for your next read and want some insight into how our world can shift.
One of my favorite parts of the book is the sixteen ways Highly Evolved Beings live that allow them to create a peaceful and successful society. I dream of the day we live that way on Earth! And I hope we are getting closer every year. If you read the book, you will find them, but if you don’t, I’m listing them here.
An awakened species sees the Unity of All Life and lives into it. Humans in an unawakened state often deny it or ignore it.
An awakened species tells the truth, always. Humans in an unawakened state too often lie, to themselves as well as others.
An awakened species says one thing and will do what they say. Humans in an unawakened state often do the opposite.
An awakened species, having seen and acknowledged what is so, will always do what works. Human in an unawakened state often do the opposite.
An awakened species does not embrace a principle in its civilization that correlates with the concepts that humans refer to as “justice” and “punishment.”
An awakened species does not embrace a principle in its civilization that correlates with the concept that humans refer to as “insufficiency.”
An awakened species does not embrace a principle in its civilization that correlates with the concept that humans refer to as “ownership.”
An awakened species shares everything with everyone all the time. Humans in an unawakened state often do not, only sharing with others in limited circumstances.
An awakened species creates a balance between technology and cosmology; between machines and nature. Humans in an unawakened state often do not.
An awakened species would never under any circumstances terminate the current physical expression of another sentient being unless asked directly by that other being to do so. Humans in an unawakened state often kill other humans without that other human requesting them to.
An awakened species would never do anything that could potentially damage or harm the physical environment that supports the members of the species when they are physicalized. Humans in an unawakened state often do so.
An awakened species never poisons itself. Humans in an unawakened state often do so.
An awakened species never competes. Humans in an unawakened state are often in competition with each other.
An awakened species is clear that it needs nothing. Humans in an unawakened state often create a need=based experience.
An awakened species experiences and expresses unconditional love for everyone. Humans in an unawakened state often cannot imagine even a Deity who does this, much less they do it for themselves.
An awakened species has harnessed the power of metaphysics. Humans in an unawakened state often largely ignore it.
Food for thought for your weekend! The book goes into examples and more details for the items on the list, along with sharing a lot more wisdom. I’m a huge fan of these books, especially Book 4. I highly recommend reading them.
I have hope that we can get there, hopefully sooner rather than later. Sending all my love. Have a beautiful day and weekend!
Cool, thanks Rebecca! I had never heard of them 🙂
Hmmm! Quite interesting and thank you for sharing. I will take a look at them soon
