Q: Now I'm retired and feel my time is running out, my greatest desire is to find ways to offer true and generous service to others in the time I have left.
Many of us feel our giving of service should be demonstrative, that is in an obvious way of serving others such as I have in the past with Nursing, Midwifery and teaching Reiki.
It is not, of course, necessary to have such obvious forms of service as 'service' comes from within, from the heart. Just living is service either to others or self. With every breath, if what we are feeling is Love then what we will be releasing into the ether is Love and this energy spreads out like ripples across the Cosmos. Yet, though I know this is true, still I rack my brains of more practical ways to be truly useful/helpful! How best to really understand what True service is?
A: Do not strive to serve, for this creates a resistance to God's flow of Love, that (Love) given to give, to share, to live, to Love.
Strive instead to release all you have ever known of life as you experience and have done (in the past) For this is but illusion here upon your Earth, the human experience, for it has been given you to learn to release. The 3rd density being is but trapped within an illusion he has built up around him as a wall against Truth, the Truth of the Unity of all creation with Creator.
Yet it is but a stage of spiritual growth that must be experienced, conquered and released. This is the purpose of 3rd density 'life'. The time of our ascending that offers the choice to release all trivia and come to know our True place in creation as co-creators.
The illusion (on Earth and elsewhere) id s product of the collective thoughts and electromagnetic or metaphysical emissions of the inhabitants incarnate and, to a certain degree, of those not incarnate. Yet there is some barrier between these states of your being, for true growth of spirit occurs primarily in physical incarnation. This being the same within all 3rd density experiences throughout creation.
It is but a more complex mix of consciousness and conscious awareness of the true state of our being here upon Earth. For all have wandered far from the True Nature of Reality, as an adventurous child would run off boldly until it loses sight of its parents and its home.
So the time of striving helplessly is coming to an end. In order to navigate such times, it is advised to relax any striving - for many who are awakening feel time is running out. Time cannot run out for it does not exist.
The most 'helpful' thing you can do is to relax in quiet mind and allow the stillness to both permeate your senses and to arise from within. This is meditation itself, be it practised in a minute, an hour or a day. For every moment is Eternity Itself.
Yet in this world of Earth, where busy minds pollute your atmosphere with erroneous, unhelpful thoughts; fear of survival, of lack, of desire for dominion over others, continuous 'prayers of the mind' is the aspirants closest ally. For, from here, you may listen from this place of stillness and you may receive such experience of your True Nature that knows what to do, how to be, how to serve your fellow man. In fact the All that is that Knowledge and Realisation of our Divinity may arise in you to a point wherein that which occurs around you bothers you no more. For all you see is the True Love of our Divine Creator. All you Know is Creator as Love and Light, for all you Are is Creator's Love and Light.
Though in this 3rd density, this may last but an instant at first try, as you maintain such moments of regular union with Creator in meditation, then do you become Creator Itself. This has always been the way and all creation shall come to learn 'Creator's Way'.
For this is the Ascension and beyond all space and time and time and space, It is already Done.
We are One
