“Let the disciples cultivate love without measure towards all beings. Let them cultivate towards the whole world, above, below and around a heart of love unstinted…. For in all the world this state of heart is the best”
The Buddha
Many years ago I was watching a TV discussion programme with great interest. Its focus was on crime and the street gangs of America. On the stage was a young girl who was unashamedly speaking, in detail, about her criminal activities within the context of a New York gang. When she finished speaking a woman rose from her seat, at the back of the studio audience and said: “ Honey, you’re looking for love in all the wrong places, ” then promptly sat down again. I remember vividly how this statement affected me. It carried so much weight and clarity I couldn’t help but share it with friends afterwards. I think the insight gained from this simple message is very profound. The young girl was indeed in the wrong place, seeking recognition and acceptance from the wrong people – violent gang members. She felt a part of something bigger than herself – the collective group and in this she could get lost along with her responsibilities to behave in a positive way.
She sought affirmation and validation from others who accepted the role of hurting people. What the woman in the studio audience said, in a very succinct and clear way, is we all need love and we should all be looking for that love in the right places. Not side tracked for misplaced acceptance, not selling out for peer group approval, not allowing ourselves to grab at imitations, but going after the real thing – a love that embraces and unifies every living soul. All that we engage with in life ( our thoughts, actions and communication ) is either an expression of love or a cry for help ( which is also an expression of love ). Anger, rage, hostility and resentment are, at a deeper level, all wanting acknowledgement and attention – they are all pleas to be understood. All bad behaviour can be seen as an ineffective response to unmet, often deep-seated psychological needs and at the very core of this ‘ acting out ‘ is the desire for love.
THE LOVE OF POWER OR THE POWER OF LOVE?
The mythical dwarf Alberich, in Wagner’s Das Rheingold, abandons the quest for love in favour of power. He seeks out the forces of control and darkness ( the love of power ) to that of union and light ( the power of love ). Our young, female gang member made similar choices. She had discarded a life of positive self expression, that could have helped people, to adopt behaviour that hurt them.
But in a turbulent, unsettling world where we struggle to find meaning, where we can be emotionally stripped bare to expose our raw vulnerabilities, would we always make the right choices? If we are made to tremble before our own projected, negative feelings of low self esteem and unworthiness, would we necessarily make the right decisions?
A true, authentic spiritual life must recognize and acknowledge that something outside of ourselves needs to be served. It must call us to embrace the diversity of humanity, with all its shortcomings and faults, in a universal fellowship of love and compassion. There is no other way. It is the very life where we must surrender ourselves, our judgements and opinions, in order to be made ready for greater understanding, empathy and sympathy. Thus the mind that cannot expand to hold these greater qualities, to grow within their light, is the mind that is still separated and divided.
LOVE IS POTENTIALLY EVERYWHERE
Love lays waiting ready to be awakened, broken open in every moment, in every human encounter, in every human heart. It comes from a higher, spiritual realm, beyond our narrow selves, and speaks to us all in a collective voice of mutual sharing and bonding. It is a gift to others and very much a gift to ourselves. That is the reward, because the more we give love away the more we will receive it back – a spiritual reality of such magnitude and profundity that it can quite take our breath away….
It’s easy for us to love the loveable ( our family and friends ) but the real challenge, and the greatest rewards come from loving the un-loveable. The people who have lost their way in life and who find it difficult to act in positive ways, these are the people that need our love and we must love them until they start to love themselves…..
“ Love is the law of life. All love is expansion, all selfishness is contraction. Love is the only law of life…… Therefore, love for love’s sake, because it is the law of life, just as you breathe to live.”
Swami Vivekanada

Ascended Masters have no need for disease. They do not have emotional baggage or issues that they hold on to; they harm no-one and therefore do not create karma. We are all becoming Ascended Masters; beings of light, as this occurs diseases and miasms [a special energy phenomena lying at the core of some health problems] will eventually become obsolete on the planet. Disease teaches you that something is wrong that is all.
Becoming an Ascended Master is a choice, we all have choice, we can all become ascended. So what is it and how do I go about it?
One of the keys of knowledge about this is that you only ascend to the level of the amount of cleansing and healing that you do on yourself. Each time you clear or heal an issue your overall vibrationary frequency rises, you lighten up a little more, become less dense. Ascension is the process of becoming a being of light, what stops you is all your dense and heavy emotions and karma. Becoming enlightened is not a sudden turn on of a switch, it is a systematic round of cleansing and healing which in turn raises your light which has the effect of increasing your awareness and consciousness. The only turn on of a switch is when you ”wake up” and signal to your higher self that you wish to begin the process – or it may be that your higher self signals to you!!
Many people have been preparing for Ascension over several lifetimes and have chosen this century to fully ascend, however they still have to do the work on themselves, there is no getting away from this. Those people who are on this journey always have guidance and help from other Ascended Masters in Spirit, you are never alone and you can always ask for help.
Our bodies are designed to live for hundreds of years. The reason that they do not is because we have become so densely physical and we habitually hold on to our issues and karma and this can go on for lifetimes. As we once again become beings of light (many civilisations ago this was so) our consciousness and our thinking is so clear that we are aware of what we are thinking, saying and doing and can clear any issues instantly rather than hold on to them. We become such loving beings that negativity no longer plays a role in our reality.
The energy or frequency of the vibrations of emotions eventually lead to cellular changes and hence disease. The other importance of removing your miasms and issues is so that you can return to your original blueprint for perfect health which your etheric body holds. Ascended Masters have perfect health.
For Sue and I the healing and cleansing path has been very arduous, taken time and dedication and has been very cathartic. We are western women with all that that entails and have not had the luxury of being able to sit in a cave in the snow (at times that would have been very welcome!). Our path has led us to look at our Inner child issues from in the womb, birth and being in an incubator and then into childhood up to the age of about six. This taught us the emotional behaviour patterns we took in to adulthood which needed to be cleared. We were then guided to look at past life issues that we had brought in with us and how they parallel some of our Inner child Issues. We then went on to clearing the Energetic wounds we had sustained from others in this life and past lives and then took responsibility for our actions (karma) and the wounds we had caused others. Next came the Miasm clearing, ([they were inherited and random or acquired miasms), the deep emotional issues associated with these and the understanding of the karmic nature of these energetic phenomena. Miasms have a huge karmic link in mans habitation of planet earth.
For Sue and I the journey continues and as we are guided and given tools to help us we in turn pass the knowledge on to others.
Ascended Masters are now living on the planet in physical bodies. It use to be that this was impossible because of the density of this dimension. Their physical bodies have been healed and cleansed and have returned to their true blueprint of perfect health. These beings of love have no place in their reality for disease, it just does not exist.
