| 1. About God |
Does God
really exist? Does he have a plan for me? How can
I find out what it is?
Yes
and yes. From your centred space, ask your
question as simply as possible and then listen
for the answer. If the answer doesn't come
immediately, sleep on it. When you awaken, you
will know the answer. At the very least,
or you will have a feeling about the correct path
to take. |
If God
IS, why is there so much pain and suffering in
the world? Why is there war? Why is there
sickness?
The
gift of free will allows us the
right to choose how to think, how to behave, how
to treat others and even what to believe. God
does not judge us for our choices, but he does
allow there to be consequences for them, for he
hears our every thought. Sometimes we can see the
result of our choice, sometimes we only feel it,
but there is always a consequence - an outcome.
Our planet and its life forms are experiencing
the results of thousands of years of negative
thoughts, attitudes and emotions. |
Isn't it
time that God gave us some new rules of conduct?
Yes, and here they are:
- Do
not judge, criticize and condemn - either
your fellow humans, or self, or the
Universal Intelligence
- Do
not control your fellow humans
- Do
not rescue your fellow humans from
despots and dictators
- Forgive
others as you would like to be forgiven
- Seek
guidance from the Universal Intilligence,
for it is always available
|
|
| 2. About the
guides |
What is
my "inner voice", and how can I
hear it?
Our
so-called inner voice is the wisdom of the
Universal Intelligence, given to us by our guide. By learning to meditate in a new way,
you can begin communicating consciously with your
guide. |
What is
my guide's name? How many guides are working with
me?
When
in a centred state, ask your
guide his or her name. (Although the guides are
not male or female, they do tend to respond to us
in ways that seem either feminine or masculine.)
If you hear more than one name, there is more
than one guide with you. In that case, ask for
the name of your personal companion/teaching
guide. One guide accompanies us on our life's
voyage (in and out of human form) and other
guides travel with us for as long as God feels is
necessary. In truth, the number of guides working
with us does not make us any better or worse than
any other human, nor does it mean that God has
higher expectations of us than of others. |
Why don't
our guides keep us from coming to harm?
Sometimes
they do and sometimes they don't. It all depends
on what is required for our soul's life
experience, and on whether we pay attention to
our thoughts. The guides abide by the guidance of
the Universal Intelligence and its spiritual
laws. Only God knows what lessons are required
for each soul. Although some experiences harm the
physical body, the soul gains wisdom from the
experience, even if not until the soul is
"at home". It is often through the more
painful and difficult experiences that we learn
the more difficult spiritual lessons.
Very often we are warned not to do something (in
our thoughts of course, for that is one of the
ways the guides communicate with us), or not to
go somewhere . It is our choice whether to heed
the warning. We may never know how many people
have met with harm who chose to ignore the
suggestion, but we are hearing of more and more
people who did pay attention, who lived to tell
the tale. See also Why are there so
many disasters lately? |
Is mental
telepathy between people possible?
No.
Telepathic communication is a reality, but only
between a soul in physical form and the Universal
Intelligence (via our guide(s)). Of course,
our Creator can cooperate with our belief systems
and desires and let us think we're "reading
someone's mind". At this point in human
evolution though, we hardly even hear our own
thoughts, never mind someone else's. So long as
we judge, criticize and condemn and try to control one another,
mental telepathy will not be allowed. We may have
a premonition that a loved one is having some
sort of extraordinary experience, but it is our
guide letting us know - not our loved one. |
|
| 3. About spirituality, healing and genes |
What is
spirituality?
Our thoughts, attitudes, emotions, behaviours,
belief systems and desires form our spiritual
diet. They are what we feed ourselves throughout
our life's journey. Paying attention to the
hidden meanings wrapped inside our everyday
experiences enables us to identify the areas
where change could be beneficial, but we need to
search for Universal Truth and full understanding
about our part in our experiences.
Being a spiritual person does not mean having to
forsake family, friends, sex, wealth, luxury,
food or drink, or even work or play. We need not
deprive ourselves of the joys of life, and we
certainly need not inflict pain on ourselves to
prove our devotion to God. After all, God hears
our every thought. It is “Balance” that
is important. Balance in all things can be
difficult to achieve on one’s own, but when
one places one’s faith in the Universal
Intelligence to teach that balance, the
possibility of success increases
dramatically. When there is imbalance, it
may be to show us unresolved inner child issues.
Spirituality is faith. It is “knowing”
that we are children of God, and therefore loved
unconditionally. It is knowing, deep within, that
we are much more than our physical bodies - that
we are spiritual beings dressed in human form.
Spirituality is the recognition that this holds
true for each and every human being - not just
the fortunate few. |
What are
some of the spiritual gifts?
These are not so much gifts as they are skills or
abilities that God, the Universal Intelligence,
may or may not activate. Any spiritual ability
that we have while in human form is there because
the Universal Intelligence has enabled it. For
one with such an ability, there could be a
tendency to feel superior. For one without such
an ability, there could be a tendency to feel
inferior and to place those with spiritual
'gifts' on a pedestal. Here are some of the
spiritual gifts, along with some newer
information about them:
- The
ability
to heal others is a
myth. Healing is given at the discretion
of the Universal Intelligence - sometimes
working through another human, sometimes
not
- Medical
intuition is the
ability to hear our guide tell us what is
happening physically with another
individual. Of course, the clearer one's
thoughts and the fewer one's belief
systems, the more readily one may hear
the Universal Truth
- The
ability
to see auras is the
ability to see the colourful energy
emanating from another individual. Of
course, the only real way to know what
the various colours mean is
to ask your guide. Remember to ask for
whom the message has been given
- Psychic
abilities are
becoming more and more well known and
accepted. Foreseeing future events,
finding missing people (both victims and
criminals), receiving messages,
communicating with the 'dead', seeing
entities who are not in physical form,
interpreting dreams; these are all
thought to be the result of psychic
intuition. The Universal Intelligence
says that they are the result of the
guides giving information to the
"psychic" individuals, and
producing special effects to go along
with the information. The psychic is
simply an individual who is willing to
"tune in" and listen to what
the Universe has to say, and then share
the information. However, the information
is filtered through the thoughts,
attitudes, emotions, desires and belief
systems of the psychic individual, so
God's message may or may not come through
intact. It is because of this fact that
the information in the Bible itself may
not completely contain or reflect
Universal Truth and wisdom
- Astral
projection -
seeming to leave one's physical body.
This can occur when one is in a
meditative state and therefore more open
to allowing one's imagination to roam
freely. It can also happen during a
"near-death" experience to show
the individual that life truly goes on
after death of the physical body. In
either case, the importance of asking our
guide questions about the experience
cannot be overstated
- Bi-location -
seeming to be in two different places at
the same moment. This has been observed
on rare occasions when the observer
believed that the individual being
observed had extraordinary powers and was
so dedicated to serving humanity that
she/he was able to be in more than one
place at a time. This phenomenon has more
to do with the observer than the one
being observed
- The
gift
of tongues is
indeed a gift and has been widely
misunderstood for centuries. It has
been taught that when this gift is
bestowed upon an individual, the chosen
one will speak words that sound like no
language on earth. Further, that a
human interpreter is required to explain
what God has said. In truth, when
this gift is enabled, the words of the
speaker will be automatically interpreted
by the guide of each listener and
transmitted telepathically to each
listener in his or her preferred
language. This concept has been brought
into physical form through the use of
human language translators
|
What is
“free will” and how does it affect us?
Free
will is the most important of the spiritual laws
affecting humankind. Many people are familiar
with the idea that humans have free will to make
their own choices - in fact, Planet Earth is
often called the free will planet. But free will
goes far beyond simply being able to choose which
action to take and when. It is the ability to
choose what to think, what to desire, what to
feel and how to react; even more importantly, it
is the ability to believe whatever we want to
believe. God, the Universal Intelligence, the
Creator, whatever you choose to call 'it', helps
us maintain and even strengthen our belief
systems whether based in Universal Truth or not.
Whatever our belief, the Universe will allow us
to experience, in physical, the outcomes of such
a belief. That is free will in action, and that
is partly why it is so important to be aware of
our core belief systems: they are the foundation
upon which our physical body rests, and upon
which our life experiences depend.
Free will is also our opportunity to choose
between doing what we want and doing that
which the Universal Intelligence requires of
us. There is only one way to find what God
requires of us, and that is to ask God, through
our own personal teacher/companion guide. Only they
have the Universal Truth of what God requires of
us as individuals. If we do not ask what is
required of us, the information will not be given
(because it would interfere with our
belief(s). If we rely upon another person to
tell us what God wants us to do, or upon
information that is presented in a book (any
book) or on television, or on the internet, we
will not find God’s Truth of what is
required for us as individuals - we will find
only what another human thinks we should do. Thus
the importance of regular communication with our own
guide.
The flip side of the free will coin is unconditional
love. We are all children of
God and we are each loved unconditionally at all
times; therefore, we are never judged, criticized or condemned by God or his
representatives. However, God does not excuse us
from responsibility. He allows there to be
consequences for our choices and our thoughts,
attitudes and emotions. The consequences may
not always be pleasant - they may even be painful
- but the individual is entitled to
communication, guidance, teaching and
unconditional love throughout the entire life
experience, whether or not we think it is
deserved. However, just because we have free will
does not mean that we are in charge: our lessons
will be presented according to God’s timing
and in whatever way He sees as best for our
spiritual growth and he will test us relentlessly
to make sure that the lessons are learned.
If you're finding that free will is getting in
the way of hearing your guide or entirely
preventing communication with the Universal
Intelligence, contact me for
additional information. |
Is there
any such thing as "miraculous healing"?
Yes. However, unless the healing happens for
"me", or unless a condition is visible
to the human eye, we have no way to tell whether
healing has actually taken place. Complete
healing does not occur if the disease serves some
purpose for the individual. See also ability to heal others |
How could God allow someone who
was miraculously healed to become sick again with
the same disease?
It all comes down to free
will. Since we are free to think whatever we
wish (God will not interfere with our thoughts),
and since illness starts in the thoughts, it is
logical that negative thoughts will have a
negative impact on our health. Of course God can
heal us, but above all else he will allow us to
experience the physical effects of our thoughts,
attitudes and emotions. |
Is there
hope that I won't develop either of the diseases
that took my parents' lives?
Yes. While the current understanding of
inherited risk factors says that we are born with
an arbitrary blend of the genes of each of our
parents and of their parents before them and so
on - and that it cannot be changed without
medical intervention, the newer understanding is
that the blend is not arbitrary and it
is not static. The Universal
Intelligence creates the blend to reflect the
spiritual makeup of the family unit as well as to
meet the spiritual learning needs of the soul who
is about to incarnate. However, the blend adapts
to reflect the spiritual condition of the soul as
it progresses through life - in other words, our
genes are dynamic.
So even if we are born with the genetic
predisposition that goes along with, for example,
Alzheimer’s, so long as we don't have the
thought patterns that go along with it, the
disorder will not develop - another good reason
to become aware of our negative thoughts,
attitudes and emotions. |
|
| 4. About souls |
What is a soul?
A soul is an element of
the Universal Intelligence. All souls were
created at the same instant, at what is commonly
called, "The Big Bang". There are
trillions upon trillions of souls in the
universe. Many have come into physical form,
while many more have not (see guide). The soul is the part of us
that behaves in a certain way (positive or
negative), without having been taught it and
without having been treated in that way in the
current lifetime. The soul is intertwined with
the body in which it resides for the current
lifetime. Access to its knowledge and wisdom is
usually unavailable to us, and that is why we
must rely upon our guide. |
What is
an "old soul"?
This
is what people call someone who always seems to
do the right thing, who seems to be a source of
strength in difficult times or who seems to be
very wise. Some people say it about themselves
(see ego). Some people
cop out of responsibilities by calling themselves
a "young" soul. We're all old souls!
Some souls may have come into human form more
times than others, but we're all the same
"age". Since our soul memories are kept
from us when in human form, we are all - young or
old - capable of anything (positive or negative),
given the right circumstances. |
What is
my soul name and what is my soul's purpose?
When
in a centred state, ask your
guide to address you by your soul name. Listen
closely!. If you can't hear it, ask your guide to
spell it for you - one letter at a time, if need
be. Finding your soul's purpose may not be so
simple. If you have a strong fear or a strong
belief, the Universal Intelligence will not
interfere with it (because of free will). Your guide may
well be obliged to tell you exactly what you want
or expect or fear to hear. Take a list of
carefully formed questions into meditation and work with
your guide to find Universal Truth. |
Will I
ever find my soul mate?
There is no such thing.
God created us as individual souls, whole and
complete. As humans we may feel incomplete, but
that is more a reflection of unresolved inner
child issues rather than of being an incomplete
soul. See also What is an
"old soul"? |
What am I
here to learn?
There
are many lessons to be learned during the course
of one's life. Besides learning to love
unconditionally, we are here to have experiences,
and to "go home" with no regrets (see forgiveness). And before you
say, "Oh, I already do love
unconditionally," be sure that you know the
true meaning of unconditional
love. |
What
belief systems do I have that prevent me from
moving forward in life?
This
question is best asked while in a centred state. The
answer is likely complicated and may take several
meditation sessions to fully comprehend. By all
means, take pencil and paper with you into
meditation. Click here to learn about
interpreting the meditation and dream symbols.
Click here to learn about
core belief systems.
Even a seemingly simple belief system like,
"I won't be complete until I find my soul mate", can
prevent one from ever feeling wholly complete or
comfortable, so just imagine what a belief system
like, "I caused something terrible to
happen", could do to keep one stuck. For
example, one might constantly experience poor
service, shoddy repairs, cancelled or missed
appointments, accidents, injuries, equipment
failures, etc. This could well be the result of
believing that one is guilty of something. Since
guilt assumes responsibility, we're taught that
there must be some form of punishment. The
Universal Intelligence cooperates with our
unspoken or even unrecognized request. Even if
we're unaware of our negative, unhealthy belief
systems, we can learn about them by becoming
self-aware. |
How can I
get past the guilt for causing a motor vehicle
accident that took someone's life? In the
hours before the accident, my thoughts kept
telling me to linger over breakfast (I didn't
because I was in a hurry to be finished), then to
have a nice hot bath instead of a shower (I
didn't because I just didn't feel like waiting
for the tub to fill), then to do a little window
shopping before my appointment (I didn't because
I just didn't feel like wasting any time) - well,
you get the picture. I just got right into my
vehicle and headed out, ignorning my inner voice.
As I was making a turn, a cyclist slammed into my
vehicle and died. If I hadn't been there, it
wouldn't have happened. My fear is that God will
see me as a murderer and condemn me to hell.
Instead of an answer to this very
difficult question, here are some questions:
- Are
you sure that your inner voice wasn't
just letting you know that something out
of the ordinary was going to happen -
giving you a warning, so to speak?
- Are
you sure that you weren't being used as
an instrument to help the cyclist along
his or her soul's journey?
- Do
you know what you are to learn from this
experience?
- Do
you know what was required for the
cyclist's life experience? Do you know
what was required for the cyclist's
family's experience?
- Do
you think that God didn't know what was
going to happen? Do you think that God
didn't know the likelihood of your
responding to your inner voice?
- Are
you sure that the cyclist did not intend
to commit suicide? (How
can one ever be sure of what another
person is thinking? Just because the
cyclist's family members may say that the
person loved life and would never abandon
them willingly, does not mean that they
knew what was in his or her thoughts.)
- Are
you sure that the so-called victim in
this accident didn't receive similar
warnings from his or her inner voice? Do
you think that God didn't know the
likelihood of him or her responding to
it?
Given all these unknowns,
holding onto guilt almost seems like an ego trip.
Yes, you played a role in the experience, but so
did the cyclist and so did God. If this
experience has helped you to be more aware of the
importance of paying attention to your inner
voice, then God's purpose for you has
been furthered. Perhaps the most important thing
to do to get past the guilt is to forgive - not
only yourself, but the cyclist and God. See also
"Is it a sin to
take someone's life?"

| 5. About life, death, reincarnation and
karma |
Is there
any such thing as a "near death
experience"?
Yes. This has been happening for as long as
humans have walked the planet. They are provided
for our benefit, and for our learning. What can
be learned from them? First of all, that the soul
continues to live even if the physical body does
not. Secondly, that even in such a profound
experience, our spiritual guides adhere to the
law of free will. For example, if
we believe in Hell, that is exactly what will be
presented. Or if we believe that our deceased
loved ones are waiting for us on the other side,
that is who will appear to us. If, instead, we
simply have an open mind, the Universal
Intelligence will present Truth. |
What
happens when we die?
We
return to our natural state by shedding our
physical body and become, once again, energy. We
achieve "at-one-ment" with the
Universal Intelligence. We have been taught that
God judges us when we go
Home and either rewards us by allowing us to
spend eternity in heaven, or punishes us with
eternal damnation. Nothing could be further from
the Truth for God never judges us. When we go
Home, we are permitted to observe our life (with
the help of our companion/teacher guide) to see
the Truth, the Universal Truth, of whether or not
we learned the lessons that were presented for
us. If we learned the lessons, we will be
sent back again and again to be tested, or to
serve as spiritual teachers. If we did not
learn the lessons, we will of course be sent in
to try, try again. This is not punishment -
it is simply learning. It is the way of
growth. It is the way of unconditional
love. |
What is
reincarnation?
Reincarnation is the process of a soul
entering into human form, remaining until the
physical body dies, leaving it and then repeating
the process innumerable times. Inherent in this
belief is the idea that the Universal
Intelligence created all souls - humans create
the physical being only.
Many believe that the soul is born into human
form time and time again in an attempt to attain
perfection, and that by reaching perfection the
soul will earn the right to no longer incarnate;
however, the Universal Intelligence says that
there is no such right since there is no such
thing as perfection.
It is not the soul who chooses whether, when and
where to reincarnate, but God. When the
appropriate learning conditions for the soul
arise, the soul will be sent in. This may be five
minutes, five years or five centuries past the
soul's previous incarnation, so we cannot assume
that our deceased loved one(s) will remain
"at home" waiting for us to die and
join them for all eternity. All matters
concerning birth (and rebirth) into human form
are decided by our Creator. |
Why do souls enter human form?
We are sent in to ‘experience’ and to
learn. |
If
reincarnation is real, why can't I remember any
of my past lives?
When we come into an
earthly existence, God places a veil upon our
soul memories. This is done for our
protection and to ensure that we have a clean
slate for each lifetime. We need only
concentrate on our current lifetime to find and
resolve the issues that affect us negatively, for
any issue that our Creator wishes resolved will
be presented in the current lifetime. Think what
it would be like if one had committed serious
crimes in a previous lifetime and were able to
recall that existence: just imagine the trauma
that could be felt. On the other hand,
imagine one who had attained great wealth in a
past life coming into an existence filled with
poverty and deprivation. This could also create
trauma for the soul, albeit in a different
manner.
There may be exceptions, but for the most part we
are prevented from accessing memories of our past
lives. Many condemn themselves for being unable
to remember a past life, but this is simply not
within human control. However, if we have a true
desire to learn about self, the veil can be
lifted for a time. Past life regression (and
progression) through hypnosis is one method, but
one runs the risk of being influenced by the
hypnotist. Meditation as taught by the
Universal Intelligence can be more reliable but
it is always imperative to be clear of desires
and belief systems, for our guides will cooperate
with them (see free will). |
What is karma?
Karma is not punishment: it is
the logical outcome of choices we make and
fears/expectations that we have. Since the
Universal Intelligence loves us unconditionally
(that means no judgment, no criticism, no
condemnation), logically there can be no such
thing as punishment (bad karma).All human
experience is considered by our Creator to be
learning – not good, not bad – just
learning.
When we do things that are viewed by humans as
being bad, we do them because of our belief
systems; that is, our negative thoughts,
attitudes and emotions allow us to commit unkind
or even criminal acts. For example, when we hold
onto resentment and seek revenge against someone,
we somehow feel justified in doing so and give
ourselves permission to commit (sometimes
horrific) acts of unkindness or cruelty. This is
called ‘self-righteousness’, and is
viewed by the Universal Intelligence as a
negative thought and attitude. When we
understand completely and thoroughly why we need
revenge and call it by its real name, we begin to
let go of it - we begin to change the pattern and
start to forgive both others and ourselves.
Many believe that past life experiences can cause
our problems in this life, sometimes even
including health or relationship issues. The
Universe teaches that all of our lessons have
been presented in the current lifetime, and all
can be learned in the current lifetime. To
blame our current situation on some past life
limits our potential and makes victims of us (Oh,
I can’t change that pattern –
it’s from a previous lifetime!). The newer
teaching says that change is always
possible. Accepting that we are given all of the
tools and every bit of information necessary for
our growth in our current lifetime enables us to
make great spiritual strides forward, when we
choose.
When an individual comes into an existence
physically or mentally challenged, it is not the
result of bad karma: souls enter human form to
reflect the spiritual condition of the family, in
conjunction with the individual's learning
requirements. Even if in a lifetime we committed
mass murder, the Universal Intelligence takes all
of our lifetimes and all that we have not yet
learned into consideration when sending us into
an incarnation. We could be sent in to become a
physician to minister to those in dire need, just
as easily as we could be sent in to become one
who is in dire need. Only the Universal
Intelligence knows what is truly required for
each individual’s spiritual learning and
growth. |
Why do
some people I meet seem so familiar to me?
This is a recognition, at soul level, of someone
with whom we have been associated in a past life.
Sometimes even the person's words and mannerisms
can seem familiar. Like déjà vu, the feeling is
given to show us that we're in the right place at
the right time, and that everything is okay. |
What is a
"walk-in"?
There is no such thing. It
is only a rumour that a highly developed soul can
walk into another body, to take over when the
original owner gives up on life. The owner
may give up, but until the Universal Intelligence
says that it is time for the soul to come home,
that individual is here to stay: “One soul,
one body per lifetime, beginning at birth and
ending at death”. (And besides - when we're
at home we're all highly developed
souls. It is only when we are in physical form
that we "forget" our true nature). |
|
| 6. About
religion and sin |
Why are
there so many religions?
Few of us dare to trust our "inner voice", so when
someone comes along and says, "I will show
you the way", we are only too eager to jump
on board. This eagerness to follow is, I believe,
a fine spiritual quality. However, I believe that
it is misdirected: Far better that we follow our
inner voice - our spiritual guide - than another
human. How can any human being possibly know what
is best for another individual?
This misguided loyalty to other humans is, I
believe, the root cause of many of society's
ills. How can handing over our power to another
human being lead to anything but our ultimate victimization?
This site is non-denominational, but stresses the
importance of communicating with the Universal
Intelligence (or whatever one calls it) to find
Universal Truth about the questions we have. This
can be done at any time of day or night, in any
place, under any circumstances. One must want to
hear a newer truth, and then pay attention to
one's own thoughts to hear the answer. See Meditation and How can I be sure
I'm receiving Universal Truth? |
Is it
true that I need a church leader to intervene on
my behalf with God?
No. If you can hear your
thoughts, you can hear your guide, who is one of
God's divine representatives. Click here to learn
the newer form of
meditation. |
What is
"sin"?
Sin is a concept that was
invented by humans - not to help them but to
control them. The Universal Intelligence views
all human experience as learning, therefore there
can be no sin. We have been taught that humans
are born into sin (because of Eve's and Adam's
choice to do what they wanted instead of what God
had asked). Since God bestows the gift of Free
Will upon all humans, that same choice exists for
all of us: we can choose to follow God's
guidance, and we can choose to ignore it. There
is no sin in either choice. Punishment (in the
form of negative experiences) comes as a logical
outcome of feelings of guilt and shame, with
which God is spiritually bound to cooperate by
providing a negative consequence. |
Is it a
sin to take someone's life?
No.
Many believe that abortion, birth control,
murder, suicide and euthanasia
are sins, crimes against God. Why? Because the
Bible says so. When the Bible was written,
it seemed very important for humans to be
fruitful and multiply, which also ties in with
the ban against homosexuality. Interestingly,
the Bible says it's ok to murder, so long as it's
one of God's "enemies"; but since we're
all God's children, how can any of us be his
enemy?
God is in charge of which soul goes into which
existence and when, and God knows when an
individual will come back from an existence -
however short or long that existence may
be. Logically, God knows when a woman
becomes pregnant the likelihood of her carrying
that pregnancy through to completion. Why
would God create a pregnancy knowing it would end
in abortion, if he were merely going to condemn
the woman to burn in hell?
If birth control and euthanasia go against God's
will, then who can say that prolonging life is in
agreement with God's will? Death is every bit as
much a part of life as living - only God knows
how long he wants a person to live. If one
believes that God wants medicine to prolong or
protect life, wouldn't it follow that He might
also want medicine to help take away life?
Alternatively, if one believes that God wants no
human intervention in preventing life, wouldn't
it follow that He would want no human
intervention in prolonging or protecting life?
The point is that we will never know what God
really wants for us unless and until we ask him
for his Truth, wait around long enough to hear
his answer and then do as he as asked. |
Is
homosexuality a sin?
No.
We have been taught that homosexuality is a sin,
but since God created each and every one of us,
and since it is the Universal Intelligence who
decides which soul is sent into which existence
to learn which lessons, how can any existence be
sinful? Is homosexuality labeled sin
because people believe that our sexual preference
is a matter of choice? Is it because
homosexuality goes against the belief that God
expects us to procreate? Is it because the
Bible condemns homosexuality? The Bible condones
slavery - does that mean that we should keep
slaves?
People will use almost any rationale to hate
those who are different. In the case of
homosexuals, it is said that 'they' use and abuse
young children. It is not homosexuals who
do, but pedophiles. (Even pedophiles are
never judged, criticized or condemned by God, for
God knows all of the circumstances that helped to
create that condition for the
individual. There may well be just as few
homosexual pedophiles as there are straight
pedophiles, given the vast numbers of humanity.)
As for the victims of pedophiles, the Universal
Intelligence knows why each individual has been
given these experiences. They are
opportunities for soul development, as are all of
life’s lessons. There are no
accidents. We simply do not have the whole
picture when we judge any
situation. This is not to say that the
abused children escape unscathed, but both
victims and perpetrators alike require all the
assistance that can be given by society, for all
are wounded children.
It is also said that gay people convert straight
people into homosexuality, but since we all have free will, nobody else
really makes us do anything. Often we do
things out of our desire to gain someone's
approval, but it is not that person who makes us
do it; rather, it is our own choice, our own
decision to act in a certain way.
Many say that the Bible condemns
homosexuality. The Bible may, but given that
the Universal Intelligence is bound by certain spiritual laws, whatever
beliefs the writers of the Bible held would have
been reflected in the words that were given
them. Had the writers of the Bible believed
that Man were meant to be homosexual, you can be
certain that everyone would be trying desperately
to be homosexual, and those who were straight
would be persecuted and condemned. The
Universal Intelligence says that there is nothing
wrong in having a loving relationship with
another consenting adult - no matter what the
race, the creed, the colour, the religion, the
gender, the sexual preference or any other
criteria humans use to distinguish one from
another. We are all children of God, and
loved unconditionally. |
How can I
know which foods to eat and which ones to avoid?
There are many mixed
messages out there about what to eat and what not
to eat, which supplements to take and which ones
to avoid, what to drink and what not to drink -
and the list changes all the time! The Universal
Intelligence teaches that our spiritual diet is
much more important than the physical food we
eat. No physical food that we eat can be a
sin or a crime against God. The many
restrictions that are placed upon humanity (in
many areas!) are placed upon us not by God, but
by humans and their desire to control others. To
enjoy good physical health, try eating a spiritual diet that is low in
negative thoughts, attitudes and emotions and
rich in positive ones. |

| 7. About the devil, hell and "negative
energies" |
Is there any such thing as the
devil?
No. The idea of the devil was made up by people
to control other people. Creating fear enables
those in charge to control the masses. The only
negativity in the Universe is in the negative
thoughts, attitudes and emotions of souls in
physical form. |
Is it
possible to accidentally receive "the mark
of the beast", namely the number 666?
No. Nothing would cause God to condemn any soul
to spend eternity away from Him. See unconditional
love |
Is there
such a place as hell?
No. There is absolutely nothing a soul can do
that would cause God to send us to a place such
as Hell, even if such a place existed. We
are all God’s children, and God would never
judge, criticize or condemn us. God would
never send us to a place away from him, for there
is no place that is away from him. |
Can
negative energies and entities harm us?
No. Negative entities, ghosts,
hobgoblins and other such frightening
mythological figures exist only in the
negative thoughts, attitudes and emotions of
human beings. We may be frightened at the thought
of them, but they do not have any power over us -
only our fear has power. Why? Because free will
ensures our privacy. By trusting that the
Universe is only energy (unconditionally
loving, responsive, productive,
deeply intelligent energy), we free ourselves
from the pitfalls of walking in fear. Since the
Universal Intelligence never judges, criticizes or condemns us, there can be
nothing to fear. Logically, there can be no
hell, no place of eternal punishment or
banishment from that place we call at soul level,
"Home". Eternal damnation is a
thing invented by humans to dominate and control, through fear,
other humans. The same holds true for black
magic, curses (or blessings for that matter)
vampires, voodoo-ism and witchcraft
Have you been visited by a "spirit" and
felt frightened by the experience? Next time it
happens, instead of just being afraid and telling
it to go away or doing some ritual, try asking it
some questions. Here are a few examples:
"How can I help you?" "What is
your name?" "Why have you come to see
me?" "Do you have a message for
me?" If the answer is yes, ask for the
message. After you've asked a question, pay
attention to your thoughts for it is there that
the answer will appear. |
Can
someone steal my energy? Can
someone give me their energy?
No
and no. The human body is a closed environment.
Only the Universal Intelligence and the guide(s) can affect
our energy. If we feel weakened (as with a
so-called spiritual vampire) or strengthened by
someone's presence, isn't it far more likely that
it is our own thoughts and desires affecting us?
If we receive an energy treatment from someone,
it is not their energy being used. They are
simply the "middle man" between the
Universal Intelligence and us. The Universe is
complying with their desire to be of service. If
the healer believes that a certain level of
energy is required, that is what the Universe
will send - whether or not it is beneficial.
Therefore, isn't it preferable for the healer to
be free of preconceived ideas about the
treatment? If the healer feels depleted after a
treatment, it is not because their energy was
used - it is because they believe it was
their energy that was used. (See free will) |

| 8. About
the end times |
Will
Jesus come alone to save humanity?
Maybe. Matters of birth
and rebirth into human form are in God's hands.
If the Universal Intelligence sends the souls who
were Mary, Jesus and the disciples back into
human form during this time in history, either as
males or females, they will each live life and
learn lessons. When the Universal Intelligence
decides that they are ready, they will be
presented with a choice. The choice will be
theirs to make, for God does not force anyone
with free will to do anything (see control). They may
choose to do what God asks of them or they may
not (see free will), but the choice
will be theirs. "Jesus" may choose not
to serve, or he or she may end up having to work
alone, since any or all of the others may also
choose not to serve.
It is common knowledge (or it should be)
that 2,000 years ago, Jesus surrendered his free
will to God. In all likelihood, although no
mention is made of it in today's Bible, some (or
maybe even all) of the disciples made the same
commitment. If they did, and if they were given a
similar choice in this time period, it would very
likely strike a chord within them that would
inspire them to choose to serve God once again.
Many people await the arrival of someone (Jesus,
the next Buddha, extraterrestrials, a powerful
politician) to save humanity, but maybe they
haven't truly thought about how it might feel to
have someone come along and tell them what to
do. Maybe they are simply hoping that a
higher intelligence will come along and tell the
government what to do, and then everything will
be all right. Then they themselves will not
have to do anything differently. It is only
when we accept responsibility for our own
lives that we begin to change. It is up to
us, as individuals, to create change on this
planet. When we become clear of the human
desire to judge, criticize, condemn and control
others, life as we know it on planet earth will
change. For the time being though, we can
only refine our own
thoughts, our own attitudes and our own emotions. |
Are we
living in the "end times"?
Yes, we are living in the times of certain events
prophesied throughout history. Besides describing
physical events, the prophecies also describe the
next step in human evolution - and this will be
tumultuous! Although humanity has grown and
evolved over the centuries, we are approaching a
crossroads. Change will be thrust upon us,
whether we like it or not - not only change in
our physical environment, but change in ourselves
at soul level. The next step in human evolution
will be to remove the negative thoughts,
attitudes and emotions and to change old,
out-dated belief systems and behaviours. God will
initiate this by releasing a portion of our soul
memory to us to let us gain a sense of Truth not
only about ourselves, but about our place in this
Universe. Until then though, we can only work on
ourselves (with Universal guidance and
assistance, of course). Why not get an
early start? |
Why are
there so many disasters lately?
Disasters of all sorts have taken
thousands of lives for thousands of years, yet we
continue to be surprised. The tragedy is that
people fail to heed warnings. We may never know
how many 'premature' deaths might be prevented
were people willing to pay attention to their
"inner voice" telling
them to run away, or stay home from work, or
whatever. We may never know how many lives and
how much developed property might be spared if we
asked for (and followed!) Universal guidance
about the best place to build. In any crisis or
negative experience though, I believe that we
must look within ourselves to discover our part
in them. If we do not, we run the risk of
becoming victims, and victims
appear to have mysteriously lost their free will.
Many believe that tragedies, both natural ones
and accidents, are random; that they are beyond
human control; that humans have nothing to do
with their creation. Further, that man-made
tragedies (like acts of terror) happen because
someone chooses to commit them. No matter
the cause of the experience, we must always look
for our own part in it. |
Why is
there so much terrorism in the world?
Terrorism has existed - in
one form or another - as long as humans have
existed, and it will continue to exist so long as
we have negative thoughts, attitudes and
emotions. One has only to look at the many
billions of dollars being spent on prevention of invasion (of any sort) to
see that society has a tremendous fear of anything
that can strike without any warning. That fear
manifests in all sorts of ways besides terrorism:
illness, accidents and injuries are but a few.
Why? Because the Universal Intelligence is -
among other things - responsive. That is to say,
it responds to our thoughts, attitudes and
emotions. So how do we stop being afraid? Click here to get started. |
