STUDY GROUP READING #277
January 2010

OPENING ATTUNEMENT
1. We would like to start this month with a follow-up to a question from last month’s Reading. We asked you to talk to us about guiding souls. You gave a very extensive answer, but one part of that question was not addressed. It was: “Does the same group of guides remain with us always through all of our lifetimes?” Would you please answer that now? 
     Follow up: And what about for this lifetime? Do the same souls stay with us throughout this lifetime, or does a different Guide come in depending upon what we are needing at a particular time in our life?

2. This question is from North Carolina: “Is there any ‘shortcut’ to healing a strong negative pattern that we prefer not to have, such as being over-sensitive to criticism?”

3. The next two questions are from California. The first one is: “Is it possible for us to leave something physical on earth, and then, after we die and reincarnate, find that again in our next lifetime?”

4. This question is also from California: “You have recommended that meditation be done without expecting certain results because trying to achieve results can stimulate brain activity that interferes with meditation. You said that the brain is sent into the mode of ‘doing through effort,’ and, ‘For the inspiration that you need and desire, effort closes the gate.’ How can we meditate without trying to achieve a certain result, such as the result of having a profound spiritual experience?”


5. The following question is from a different study group member, a member from New York. You probably answered it already, but I’m going to ask it in case there’s anything else to add specific to her question. She asks: “As humans, we usually do something repeatedly because it brings us some sense of pleasure or satisfaction. When our practice of meditation brings only sleep or rest, but not the spiritual experience that we seeking, how can we motivate ourselves to keep meditating? Sometimes people go for years meditating without any particular breakthrough.”

6. This question is from California: “People who have near-death experiences report profound interactions with light. Certain meditation techniques involve ‘breathing in the light.’ This suggests that there is something mystical about light. Is light simply symbolic for something spiritual, or is there an actual spiritual reality associated with light itself?”

7. We are about to enter the year 2010. What do we need to know for the upcoming year?

8. Would you please close with an attunement for us to use this month?

STUDY GROUP READING #278
February 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. This question is from Minnesota: “The Bible says ‘As you sow, so shall you reap.’ Many other teachers also teach about karma—that what we put out, we get back in return. Is it true that if an individual puts out kindness, compassion, and love, they will get that in return, and if they put out negativity and fear, they get that back in return?”

2. This question is from California: “How does the soul interface with the human self? How much of our intelligence is from the soul, and how much from the human form? Do we bring into each life all that we learned previously, or, do we select what we will use for each life according to what we want to learn?”

3. This question is from Oregon: “In a recent Study Group Reading you said that our Guides ‘whisper to us.’ I am wondering if we can in fact amplify and encourage the ability to better hear what our Guiding ones are communicating to us.”


4. This question is from Washington State: “I believe that in one of your Readings you stated that there are no such places in the body that some refer to as ‘chakras.’ I am studying books on spiritual healing, and the understanding of what they claim to be chakras, and auras, and nerve medians, seems to be the foundation of their practice. Is it possible for healers to believe in something that doesn’t exist, and base their practice and methods on mistaken beliefs, and still be able to heal others regardless? Or, are some of the listed healings only imaginings?”

5. This question is from Maryland: “What difference does it make if we are aware, or not aware, of our eternal source when we die? Is there a period of confusion—an intermediate state—after death, or do we immediately remember who we are as a soul? What is the benefit of living a physical life in acknowledgment of our true spiritual self?"

STUDY GROUP READING #279
March 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. Our first question is from California: “Lately, the support for president Obama seems to be less. This is related to several factors: he seems to be backing down on the health care issue; he seems to have escalated the war; and there are reports that they are still torturing prisoners in the detention camp at Guantanamo. A lot of people are feeling a sense of letdown about broken promises by the president. He seems to have alienated both those on the extreme right and the extreme left, and most Republicans. I personally love the guy, but I am curious to know what is going on with the
political climate in the U.S. in light of some of the decisions that have been made of late. I would like to be clearer about this. It is a bit troubling.”

2. This question is from Washington State: “Alzheimer’s is a disease that makes us all sad as the patient seems to lose their memory of their loved ones and their life. What is it like for a person with Alzheimer’s from the inside? Are they suffering? What do they feel and think?”

3. This question is from Maryland: “You have discussed dreams before, but I have a new question. I notice that my two-month-old grandson often makes faces and sounds while he is dreaming, as if he is responding to the content of his dreams. What do babies dream about? Is it food, or being
carried? Or, are they still in touch with their souls and dreaming on that level?”
4. This question is from Missouri: “When the soul is making contact with the human self in dreams and meditation, and the human self is starting to receive steady messages with a more confident flow, will there be markers that one might expect—specific to the individual of course—but some benchmarks to look for? What I mean is, since love, kindness, and compassion are threads that weave us closer to Truth, will the messages always be encoded in just these qualities? And, are creativity, mystery, humor, art, music, or poetry equal playgrounds for ways to ‘hear’ guidance? If so, how does one discern the human self from what is the larger Self, or soul, in such cases?”

5. This question is from England: “You often say that it is necessary to give up desire when we pray or meditate. That seems an almost impossible task. It is a human instinct to desire something as a first motivator. Even before making a move physically, it’s motivated by a desire. Everything in the human world seems motivated by desire. We can desire to know the answer to this question. How can we possibly give up all desire when we pray or meditate?”

6. This question is from New York: “A long time ago, I read a book, Strangers Among Us, by Ruth Montgomery. It said that there exists what is called ‘walk-ins,’ who are guiding humanitarian-oriented souls who later come to inhabit, or take over a human adult body whose soul is willing, for many possible reasons, to leave living. Would you comment on this? I originally saw this as possible, but now question its validity as it sounds counter to your teachings.”

STUDY GROUP READING #280
April 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. Our first question is from North Carolina: “Experiencing life as a human feels a bit like being torn apart—between the divine and the physical reality. It seems like we are never really at ‘home,’ except possibly for short moments in attunements. How can we best reconcile this dilemma?”

2. This question is from Iowa. It is also about finding balance: “There is a certain comfort in an attitude of detachment from the material world, as taught by some religions. However, it can result in not caring enough to find passion in life. How can we find a balance between detachment and involvement?”

3. This question is from Minnesota: “Someone said that every adversity, every failure, and every heartache carries with it the seed of an equivalent, or greater benefit. This is an illustration of what they call ‘the law of polarity,’ where everything has an opposite. Every good has a bad, every down has an up, and so forth. If this is true, then can we look to things in the physical world and know that there will be an opposite at some point. For example, the past couple of years have seen a downturn in our economy. Does that mean that because of the law of polarity, there will be a corresponding upturn? Does the universe really work that way?”

4. This question is from Minnesota: “In a recent Reading, you said that when we die, we no longer care about physical things, only relationships. Does that mean that when a loved one dies, his or her soul is still somehow connected to the people they left behind? For example, some people believe that when a loved one dies, they become one of our guardian angels. Would you clarify this?”
5. This question is from California: “Estimates differ, but no small percentage of people are born sociopaths. They do not have normal human emotions. Early life trauma seems to have no formative role in why they are the way they are. It’s strictly a matter of biology, genetics, the roll of the dice. There are, as yet, no effective ‘remedies’ for this condition. People with the condition can commit the most terrible atrocities with no regret. This condition challenges not only our practice of compassion, but our cherished notions about ‘free will,’ the ‘soul’ being here to learn ‘lessons,’ the capacity for human development, the idea of cosmic love and justice, and so forth. There seems to be no explaining it away. Would you explain how people being born as sociopaths fits into the spiritual scheme of things?”

6. This question is from New York: “To me, it seems that there has been much reference lately in your Readings to human choice—that through better choices life can improve, whether it be individually, or at the societal level. Would you give us some insight into how to look at our choices, what constitutes choices, do we make more choices than we actually feel or take ownership of, can all our actions and words be considered choices? Do we, in general, need to think more about our choices rather than just react? What about areas such as career, or partners, that we make choices about but seem, in part, to be influenced by forces and factors that are not just of our own making?”

 7. So, is it true that we can always choose our inner attitude, or how we will respond to something that happens in life? And, if so, does that mean then that we could actually justify anything that takes place?

May 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. This question is from California: “Recently, we have had major earthquakes in populated areas around the world, as well as the volcanic eruption in Iceland that has halted air travel across Europe. Do these events have any spiritual significance that we should know about?”

2. This question is from California: “We know that gravity is a physical law, and that when we use it wisely, we thrive. Are there any spiritual laws that would be useful for us to know about?”

3. This question is also from California: “There is a passage from Matthew in the New Testament in which Jesus says, ‘Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.’ Is that why some Christians believe that they should ‘witness,’ or proselytize these teachings? What was really meant by that passage?”



4. This question is from the same questioner in California: “What did Jesus mean when he said later in that passage from Matthew, ‘I am with you always, to the very end of the age?’ What actual presence might we experience of Jesus? Are we to assume that we have the potential for a real living relationship with Jesus?”

5. This question is from Florida: “I would love to hear more about lost civilizations, such as Atlantis and Lemuria and how such vast wisdom of the golden ages of humanity came to be lost. How does our animal nature fling us into oblivion to basically obliterate good, and blindly instill forces of control that obviously wiped out those golden ages of wonderment?”

6. This question is from North Carolina: “Striving for perfection, while that seems good in theory, is a bit like hitting the moon with a golf shot. It not only seems impossible to achieve perfection, but it is frustrating if we have it in our mind to do so. What is the best way to view ‘perfection?’”

STUDY GROUP READING #282
June 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. Our first two question are from a Study Group member in Gibraltar: “If it is someone’s true desire to serve others in the same way that Ron does, by dedicating their life to sharing the Guide’s truth and wisdom, is there a way that they can become a trance medium? If they have led a spiritually connected and disciplined life, and are willing to do what else is necessary, would the Guides communicate through them, or, is this not up to human choice? Please will you explain how this process of the Readings takes place, and if possible, how one can prepare to be of service in this way?”

2. The second question from Gibraltar is: “You mentioned in a past Reading that when humans first manifested, they were able to access the spiritual realms with ease since they still used the part of their brains that were open to all that is. Then you said that through human fear and confusion, this part of our brains has in a way shut off, or atrophied. I am curious to know if there is a way, or activity, that we can use in order to awaken this part of our brains again. I am thinking specifically about reaching our youth, perhaps though some kind of internet creative game, that will make them align with this area which has been lying dormant for so long. This seems like such a lost opportunity to really catapult the human race back onto an elevated, less fearful, and more connected pathway.”

3. This question is from Minnesota: “For many years, our scientists, innovators and businessmen have attempted to give us ‘better living thru chemistry.’ There have been many advances and legitimate improvements that have given us more comforts and genuine health benefits. However, more and more data is showing that some of those chemicals—sometimes called endocrine disruptors—are harmful, and even toxic to vulnerable individuals, and even pose a threat to our survival as a species. Will you give us the Guides’ outlook on these ‘modern improvements’? Are there any chemicals, or classes of chemicals, that are specifically causing more problems for future generations? What can we do as individuals to create a healthy environment for ourselves, our future generations, and our planet?”

4. This question is from Arizona: “If the right brain controls our emotions and spiritual perception, and the left brain controls linear thinking, how can we utilize the function of the right brain in order to enhance and increase our intuition?”

5. I’m sorry that I can’t remember who sent in the following question, but it is a good one: “Would you help us understand the mentality of greed that seems so predominant amongst certain business people, not only in this country, but in the world. Why does any one person need millions and millions, billions, of dollars to live happily? Were these people kings in past lifetimes, now trying to recreate their kingdom? Is it just because they can accumulate for themselves? Would you help us understand this kind of mentality that has spawned the Bernie Madoff’s and Goldman Sachs brokers of the world?”

July 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. Our first question is from California: “The recent oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico is the largest man-made catastrophe in history. Is there a silver lining at all to this event? What can you tell us from a spiritual perspective that will help us see beyond the terrible sense of badness about this?”

2. This question is from New York: “According to the Bible, animals were sacrificed daily at the Temple in ancient Jerusalem. Scripture says the sacrifices were intended as a ‘pleasing fragrance to God.’ You have told us many times that people at that time were closer to the days of divine awareness. Were those sacrifices somehow actually making a difference to the divine entities, or were the people who believed in their efficacy now finally completely separated from conscious awareness of the divine and saw this as the only way to reach out to what was now invisible to them?”

3. This question is also from New York, and the Study Group member writes: “My question is sparked by what you said in a previous Reading about all humans being our flock of sheep, and the importance of being aware of our connection to all humans. How does our human desire to be special and unique interplay with this? Would this desire for uniqueness interfere with being in harmony with all humans?”


4. This question is from Los Angeles: “You have said that when we love each other and live a life of empathy, compassion, and love, the Christ Force emanates to those around us. Is there an unseen force moving from us when we live a life dedicated to goodness? In effect, do we teach love to each person purely by example?”

5. This question is from Saint Louis, Missouri: “Would you give us a type of visual meditation to help us transmute stress and worry with images that align with, or promote our optimum cellular health?”

6. This question is from North Carolina: “You have often spoken about the first stages of human life on earth during which you said humans lived perfect lives as a reflection of divine perfection. What happened that took the early divine-realized humans so far down the path of fear that they lost consciousness of the divine? How long, from our point of view in terms of time, did this fall from grace take to happen, and how long has it taken us to get back to our present life situation?”

August 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. This question is from Missouri: “My question is regarding all that is physical, changing, visible, and sensory. Certain spiritual traditions call this Maya, or ‘illusion.’ Since we are living, sentient beings inside physical bodies with a vague, or for some, no memory of the truth of our being—which is eternal and transcendent—what is the most helpful way to see all of this physical creation? You have said that we create our reality, each and every day of it. If one is seeing the physical world as a place of pain—or some other extreme, say a place of humor—is this then the ‘world’ that we will create around us? How much does our own perception really affect the reality that we experience?”

2. This question is from California: “Some people believe that you must accept Jesus as your savior to go to heaven. Others believe that it is by your good works that you enter heaven, and others have different criteria and beliefs about it. From your point of view, what determines where we go when we die?”

3. This question is also from California: “The phrase, the ‘Christ’ Force seems exclusive, leaving out those who don’t believe in Jesus Christ. Would you talk about why you have used that phrasing?”

4. This question is from Oregon: “Periodically, I hear ancient and mystical stories about a possible ‘darkness’ in the outer realms—what we humans would consider ‘evil.’ I would like you to speak to the existence of any darkness in the Universe. I recognize the human confusion and distortion that create the darkness within ourselves, and hence, reflected on Earth, but I ask you to speak about any dark energy that exists beyond Earth.”


5. Another Study Group member from Oregon is curious to know if President Obama was President Lincoln in another lifetime?

6. This question is from Iowa: “Some people believe that negative thoughts and emotions can cause ‘negative’ events to occur. It would seem that this line of thinking can result in people being afraid to think certain thoughts, or afraid to experience certain emotions, such as fear, jealousy, anger, grief, and so forth, thus causing more fear, that is, the fear of negativity. Would you please enlighten us about this? We know from your teachings that it is best to experience our fears, release them, and thus heal them. Allowing for individual differences such as the soul’s intentions to heal certain fears from past lives, is there any truth to the idea that persistent fear patterns in the present lifetime (negative thoughts and so forth) can cause or ‘attract’ further challenges, disease, and so forth?”

7. So, the ideal for creating the life that you want would be to have positive thoughts, with heartfelt feelings of belief and positivity, and taking the physical actions to bring about the results that you want. Is that what you’re saying?

STUDY GROUP READING #285
September 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. This question is from Iowa: “Would you please deepen our understanding of the connection between mental and emotional processes and physical disease? We know that our thoughts and emotions influence our brain chemicals, endocrine system, and so forth, and, as long as we are human it seems that we will have challenging thoughts and emotions to heal. When we bring these challenging thoughts and emotions into our conscious awareness in order to heal them, is the effect different than when we are in a fear state and not consciously healing these thoughts and emotions? Can the process of consciously healing our fears, for example, actually improve our immune functioning by giving our body the message that even in troubling times, as you have suggested that we say to ourselves, ‘nothing on Earth can harm me; there is only Good?’”

2. This question is from North Carolina: “I often find myself rushing to the future and not allowing myself to enjoy the present moment. What can I do differently to accept ‘time moving on’ and not feel like I am missing something if I stop and pause in the moment? Does this pattern have something to do with fear of losing control, or fear of growing old? What do you suggest?”

3. A Study Group member in California has been listening to some past Readings and is curious to learn more about our “larger self” as it was put in a past Reading. You described our larger self as a part of us, not being separate, but that we are simply unaware of its presence. You have said that this larger self has great clarity and wisdom, and that we can walk within its matrix. Would you speak more about this part of us, and tell us how we can become more aware of it?”



4. So, to experience the larger core more in our daily life—I’m trying to connect this back to the other question about being in the present moment—does being in the present moment, the “be here now concept,” help one to experience more fully that core of which you speak?

5. This question is from New York: “What factors determine the nature of the relationship that we have with significant others—by this I mean spouse, friend, sibling, child? It is easy to embrace the specialness of our current relationship. It’s harder to imagine that in other lifetimes the relationship was different. For instance, it seems more comforting to think that a spouse or a child has always been the spouse or the child. How do we understand the intermingling of relationships, or the desire for it to be constant?”

6. This question is from Virginia: “I believe that the propaganda attacks against the current Barak Obama administration are built largely on deceit and misinformation. But, many good people believe the deception and buy into the propaganda. Is there any way to counter this growing trend?”

7. This question is from another Study Group member in California: “There has been a lot of research on the brain in recent years with new and advanced ways to view the actual brain. Would you speak about the brain-mind-personality connection? If the mind represents the soul, how much influence does it have over a physical brain, thus affecting the development of different personality traits?”

October 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. Our first question is from the state of Washington: “A local front page article in a national newspaper stated that, with Alzheimer studies, scientists cannot determine what causes the disease, who will get the disease, what will prevent the disease, or what can be done to cure Alzheimer’s. Would you discuss why this disease is so hard to diagnose, or avoid, or cure?”

2. This question is from Connecticut: “In my pursuit of the goals that you recommend of kindness, compassion, and love, I wonder how the concept of competition fits in. While competition does seem important to our growth as humans, it seems at odds with ‘oneness.’ What is the best way to see this?”

3. It’s hard to imagine in our earth life how you could play games like ping pong or tennis and not have a winner or loser because that’s the nature of the game and playing with gravity on this earth. Could you just say a little more?
4. This question is from a Study Group member in Korea: “A common and popular idea in contemporary Western spiritual thought is that each incarnation is a conscious choice. But, in the ancient Eastern traditions, it tends to be portrayed as something that people are unintentionally pulled into by their karma, lifetime after lifetime, until they have finally attained what in Hinduism and Buddhism is called ‘moksha,’ or liberation from the cycle of births and deaths. What is your own take on this?”

5. This is a question from Florida: “Why have all the groupings vanished that had civilizations in the past that could accomplish great feats, like moving stone with sound, and so forth? Why have none of them managed to find a place somewhere in this vast earth to survive?”

STUDY GROUP READING #287
November 2010

OPENING TEACHING
1. Our first question is from Missouri: “In last month’s Reading you said that one of the causes of Alzheimer's disease is the ingestion over the years of poisons by humans. My follow-up question concerns the cause that you mentioned about poisons that affect the brain. I would hate to be ingesting poisons that cause Alzheimer’s and not even know it! So, would you please give us more specific information about what these poisons are so that we may avoid them?”

2. This question is from Korea: “Sometimes in your personal Readings it seems like you tell people of certain experiences, or areas of life, that they have ‘mastered’ in past lives. However, it may be that, in this current life, the person in question still feels the need and desire to again experience that area of life that was supposedly mastered. If the person indeed decides to pursue that experience again, are they ‘failing’ to evolve? Are they wasting a chance to cover new ground and learn new things? In all fairness, life is already mysterious enough as it is, so shouldn’t we at least not have such strong desires to experience things if we’ve already mastered them? And, even though conscious memories of past lives don’t cross over, shouldn’t we at least feel a subconscious sense of contentment in that area that we mastered? It would seem to me that our deepest desires are the only tangible clues that we have to what our souls want to experience in the current lifetime, and if we can’t even trust them, then it doesn’t seem fair.”

3. This question is from California: “Would you please elaborate on how the soul, or spirit interacts with the brain? What happens if the brain has less nutrients to work with? Does that hamper the functioning of the human? How does this affect the ability of the soul to come through?”
4. This question is from Florida: “When unexpected good things happen I find myself thanking God, and I send happy, positive energy to the ‘God concept,’ or to the person that was nice to me. My question is, when bad things happen, why am I confused as to how to feel? I start to feel depressed, withdrawn, and very sad. Would you please clarify this mystery, and give us some tips to free us from the hold of relentless negativity that we experience when bad things happen? Doctors have told us that there are five stages of depression that we go through when experiencing a bad event. I do understand that only the good is truly real, but still the human evil has always been at the forefront of all societies and civilizations throughout history, with no progress in sight.”

5. This question is from California: “In the Bible there is a verse that says, ‘Those who are meant to die in war will die in war. Those who are meant to die from hunger will die from hunger. Those who are meant to be taken captive, will be taken captive.’ Would you comment on this verse?”

STUDY GROUP READING #288
December 2010

Opening Teaching
1. Our first question is from North Carolina: "What is the cause of disharmony in our relation-ships? Is it as simple as focusing on what's wrong rather than what's good or right? Or, is there a stronger pull to ego, fear, and judgment that needs to be overcome or shifted? Would you please guide us on what we need to know to create greater happiness in our relationships?"

2. This question is from Oregon: "In the October, 2010 Study Group Reading you say, 'Infre-quently do you ones encounter God, while with extraordinary frequency you encounter humans every day. If you have the desire and the discipline to pay more attention to humans, then, from the human point of view of kindness, compassion, and love, and from the spiritual point of view, as you looked at another human you would feel, "This is an expression of God in human form." If you had the determination, you could open many doors in this pathway.' My question is, how does one navigate this pathway? What makes this pathway so potent? What are these experiences that you are describing?"

3. This question is from the same Study Group member in Oregon. In the October, 2010 reading you also said, "It would truly amaze you and inspire if you knew that you are surrounded by extraordinary beings inside those physical bodies." You told us that if we truly want to know the mystery of what God is, we can pay attention to the humans around us because the mystery of God is living in those human bodies. You said that we can learn the deepest truths of life simply by paying more attention to the people that we interact with everyday. Would you please elaborate on this statement and tell us more about what we should study? What particularly should be our focus of attention?"




4. This question is from Virginia: "How is the soul of a person who forgives an action taken against them that is harmful affected differently from one who does not forgive? What difference does it make and in what ways?"

5. This question is from a Study Group member's personal Reading. We thought it addressed an issue that some of you deal with and would find interesting. We received permission to include it this month. The questioner asks: "My 80-year-old father has been dealing with serious cancer issues. I am concerned with how to speak with him about his cancer and his beliefs. He is completely Jesus-oriented, meaning that he sees Jesus as a personal savior and truly feels that if a person does not accept that truth, that they will not be accepted by God. I have attempted to explain in a very limited way some of what I have come to understand of the divine. I want him to feel comforted, as I think he is understandably frightened by what is happening. Please give me guidance on how to best talk with him and help him?"

7. Would you please close with an attunement for us to use this month?
