Christmas in Indiana PDF Print E-mail

As always, I had mixed emotions about what my upcoming trip to the city where I grew up would bring.  On my way to the airport, I wondered what this journey would result in.  A little over a year ago,   my sister's only son Patrick, had passed away, I was on my way back to South Bend, Indiana, where I had spent several years of my boyhood.   The Christmas season had just begun and my own Christmas spirit was exploding.  Our Christmas tree had been up for a week, the outdoor lights had been hung for over two weeks, and all the decorations in our home were already in place.  It had been over three years since I had visited my sister and her home.  I was to sleep in my deceased nephew’s bedroom.  Having slept in several of my deceased relative’s bedrooms upon visits to other family members, this usually created some anxiety.  On this occasion, however, there was no anxiety whatsoever.  I actually looked forward to reconnecting with my nephew in some way, by being so close to some of his possessions.  Even to me, that seemed a little morbid.

Having arrived with no travel delays, whatsoever, I picked up my rental car at the airport in South Bend, rigged the GPS unit and drove to my Sister and Brother in Law’s home. The sky was overcast and it seemed a bit dreary.  We spent a wonderful evening just chatting and enjoying dinner. The next day, my Brother-in-law and my niece, and I drove up to Dewey Lake in Michigan, where, as a child, I had spent many an enjoyable summer.  I have to admit the resort looked very dated, in need of serious remodeling, yet it still brought back many wonderful memories.  The resort was closed for the season and all of the metal beach toys, rafts, slides and various pier implements were piled on the beach.  Having become more traveled, certainly a bit more sophisticated, and older, perhaps even wiser, I realized that even if the resort were open, I would never return there.  That evening, having returned to Osceola, Indiana, my female cousin Lesley hosted a pizza party and we reminisced about old times, family experiences, and I learned a number of things I didn't know.  After a lot of laughter and with a newfound familiarity my sister and I returned to her home.  The previous day, my Sister had sent me an SMS or Text message asking if I were willing to assist her in decorating her home for Christmas.  I had agreed with enthusiasm.  Somehow, a healing was about to take place.  I would like to think that my presence played some part in her willingness to celebrate the holiday.  We decorated the Christmas tree,
And that was a great experience for both of us.  The tree was beautiful, and my sister really enjoyed the process.  The next day we went for breakfast, and began to have a conversation about the passing of my nephew Patrick.  It had been a little over a year since he had died, having been my sister's only son and only child.  As could be expected, she still missed him terribly.  My sister is very familiar with my work and she asked if I could feel Patrick's presence.  I said that I had not felt it for quite a long time, having assumed that he had moved on in his own spiritual path.  She said that she had not felt his presence for a while either, although sometimes it came and went.  In my belief system, when we no longer feel the presence of the energy of those who have died, it means that they have chosen a new path in their process.  Since I am living on the earth, and I can only go by the information I have channeled, it's difficult to know what truth is and what is the story that I make up in my mind about all of this.

I stated to my sister, that in my experience, the souls on the other side who have passed out of this earth can often be more concerned about their surviving relative’s well-being, than they are about their own well-being.  It also seems to be a truth that our concern for them holds them back.  When we heal that concern and release our fear, it allows them to move forward.  We both shared a tear or two over this conversation and reminisced about Patrick, his life, and our lives.  It was an intimate conversation, and I felt closer to my sister, Lee Ann, then I had in a long time.  She expressed her gratitude for our conversation and felt that it helped her in some way.  As a father, I cannot imagine the sense of loss I would experience were I to lose a child.  I have not had that experience.  And if I am to have it, I certainly don't look forward to it.  The next day, Sunday, we had tickets to tour the mansion in South Bend that had been built by the Oliver family.  James Oliver had been an industrialist in the 1800’s and 1900’s in South Bend.  He had researched and developed a process for smelting plows over 45 years. His success was phenomenal and unmatched by any of his competitors.  He and his family became wealthy, selling these plows all over the world.  His impact on the South Bend area was tremendous.  He donated an Opera Hall and a City Hall to the town.
At the height of production, his plant employed 2,600 people.  His son, James Oliver Junior, built the mansion we toured.  My sister was curious as to whether or not I might experience the energy of some spirits in the building.  As we toured the mansion we enjoyed beautiful, vintage, Christmas decorations. In three places, I did experience the presence of some ghosts.  Interestingly enough to me, these were not spirits who had lived in the mansion, but rather had moved in at some point from other locations.  I asked one of the docents or tour guides if she had ever experienced a similar feeling.  She informed me that there were no ghosts in the house and that if there were; they would be the ghosts of Christmas decorations that had not been used.  That made no sense to me, but it sounded like a safe answer to give people touring the home.  As we finalized our tour we took some photographs of the home from the outside.  My sister lent me a book about the Oliver's success. I found the book fascinating and inspiring.  I also realized that I had read very little in the way of history about successful people.  Most of my reading had been science-fiction, mysteries, and history of the Native Americans in the United States.  I resolved to begin reading about successful people so I could motivate myself to accomplish more.  I've not yet chosen my next book, however I have faith it will come to me easily.

My journey to my old stomping grounds, South Bend, Indiana, had been one of the most enjoyable I had ever experienced.  Reconnecting with relatives, family, and places I had been familiar with as a boy was very satisfying.  I learned a great deal of local history that I had never been aware of as a child.  It impressed upon me the importance of timing and the truth that when the student is ready the teacher will appear.  My Sister once again taught me a great deal for which I am very grateful. Any anxiety I had about making the journey was unfounded and some healing I didn’t anticipate was a part of the reward for undertaking the trip. May your future journeys bring you as much as this one brought to me! All the best.

 
Shambhala Channeling June 9,2012 PDF Print E-mail

A few days after I'd returned from the Safsen Sweden Council of Shambhala retreat, the following information came through. It's an exercise I hope you'll try, either alone or with a group. It is meant to create more positive energy here on the Earth and it was very strongly recommended by the Council. I actually experienced it as a dream and then awoke with an immediate request to place it on the computer and share it with as many as possible.  Enough Said!

Saturday, June 09, 2012 5:03a.m.

We are the one who is called Jalil and we bring you greetings and salutations from the Council of Shambhala. As we bring this transmission through this man we encourage you and request of you to not only read the following but to experience this work in your individual way and finally with your groups. This work is necessary to allow your planet Earth to move into its full potential and its full light. The work is not difficult nor shall it take a long time. The more of you humans who do the work, the more powerful your planet shall become.

Begin by finding your center, your soul, your essence the divine inspiration within you. Quieting the mind, the heart, the thoughts and the feelings will bring you into this centered space. Take three deep breaths in a row, slowly, in a concentrated manner. Allow these three deep breaths to take as long as they take. Focus with the mind now on your divine nature. Imagine yourself as powerful, benevolent and peacefully shining your own light out as far as it can go. Breathe that depth that you are as deep into your energy as you can and in the process, allow love to pour from your own center, your own heart and your own beingness.

Begin now to focus on the Country of Sweden.  You need have no personal experience of the place called Sweden, but you must imagine that this exercise begins there.  You begin to imagine a large column of light, first within yourself, dimensions of which fit within your own body and your own imagination. This column of light is destined to grow but it must begin within your own being first. As this column of light establishes itself in your imagination the word that describes it is solid. Though it is laser light, highly concentrated and fully developed it is also solid and powerful. You can feel its solidarity and you can tell that nothing but good positive energy fills it. As this light is established in your mind’s eye, it also becomes established in your body. You become powerful, solid and filled with positive energy. This light column begins to grow within you until it can no longer be held within you. It becomes larger and larger and you now send it in to the country called Sweden. Any point within the country, any place, city, country, mountain, lake, stream, river, wherever you visualize it.   It then begins to spread across the entire country rooting itself deep within the land in the very core.  Its life spreads throughout the country and throughout the people, filling each with hope, optimism, joy and a positive outlook to the future that had never been allowed previously. This light begins now to spread deep within the Earth from the place called Sweden and generates itself in a global or sphere like fashion throughout the entire Earth. Not only through the surface but through the core, eliminating any sources of darkness and pouring through any obstacle, blockage or darkness. This process then fills the Earth with the potential to manifest the power of Atlantis once more on the planet, returning it to the benevolent and wondrous place it is meant to be, eradicating hatred, manipulation and corruption at its very core. Allow this light to become so large that even the planet Earth cannot contain it. This light is sourced in good. It is sourced in love, it is sourced in all the best that can be. Once you have grown it to the largest imaginable size, then you allow yourself to rest, returning to your own thoughts and your own process. Breathe light throughout your body and allow yourself to heal. We are grateful for your participation and your willingness to assist in the healing of your planet, a healing that is long overdue and incredibly important. We are the twelfth Seat of the Council, Known as Jalil. We bring you greetings and Salutations from the Council of Shambhala.

Indulge Me Here

Gregory Possman 2:37a.m. February 21, 2012.

Indulge me here.  What if we exist in one tiny universe?  That being the universe we see with our five senses.  And what if that universe is only a tiny part of the multi-verse?  What if there are multiple layers of universes in which a part of our consciousness exists?  What if we have access to all of those universes, in moments of awareness, moments of enlightenment?  What if we are allowed to travel into those Omni-verses, or multi-verses?  What if on occasion in the process of merging with the light beings through the use of a trance channel, meditation, prayer, chanting or some other process, we are able to slide into the reality, the experience of those Omni-verses?  Indulge me here.

My workshops have been evolving for 19 years.  I have been evolving for perhaps 19,000 years.  I do not know how long I have been evolving.  On this Earth, in this life, I have no clue how long I have been evolving.  It is only through the use of my imagination, my dreams, my visions, and my experiences that I can guess how long I have been evolving.  Are these the ruminations, the imaginations of a madman?  Perhaps, or are they the possibilities that the light beings on the other side want me to accept?  Are these possibilities also, the blockage that I cannot accept, which keep me locked in this one tiny universe?  Is this the veil that I refuse to allow my own awareness to pierce?  Is this what keeps me from emerging in my own spiritual evolution?  Indulge me here.

In the next series of workshops, based upon the experience I have just had in the Chiron Brotherhood, the Men’s group I have been participating in for the last 18 years, we will begin to share as a group, after each channeling.  This will allow each person, an opportunity, to share their experience and give them the opportunity to increase their confidence, based upon listening to the similarities they have experienced alongside their fellow participants.  This will also allow each participant to see himself as if they belong, as if they are a part of an experience of the Omni-verse, of the multi-verse, and be able to return to this experience here in the third dimension, without questioning their own sanity.  More important, perhaps they will retain a piece of that knowledge they can use here to heighten that awareness and even share with others.click here to see workshops.

Indulge me here.  What if we exist in one tiny universe?  What if there is so much more than what we experience with our five senses?  What if the sixth sense we experience, sometimes called our extrasensory perception, is actually real?  What if we are able to access that multiple universe experience?  What if we are able to move into that experience in something other than our dreams and our meditation?  What if we are able to experience some proof of that process beyond our imagination and bring back from that experience direction, insight, and a vision of what we are to create here in this life, during the process of living, evolving, and becoming? We are about to find out, I am about to find out, as the next set of workshop experiences take place in March of 2012..  Indulge me here.

 
When Life Doesn't Deliver PDF Print E-mail
 

Recently I experienced one of those "dark" days when very little went well. I felt like a failure, as if all I touched went sour and I was unhappy. We don't always live up to our own expectations, others don''t always live up to our expectations,  and sometimes our creation doesn't exceed our hope. On those days when I'm choosing less than happy thoughts I sometimes turn to the internet for inspiration. Recently, the poem Desidirata appeared on my screen. Written by an attorney from Terre Haute, Indiana named Max Ehrmann, in 1927, the following piece, "Desiderata" was Max's most famous contribution to our world.

Desiderata

Go 220px-mehrmannplacidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.  As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.  Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.   Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit.   If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.  Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.  Keep interested in your own career, however humble, it's a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.  Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery.  But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.  Be yourself.  Especially do not feign affection.   Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantement, it is as perrenial as the grass.  Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.  Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.  But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.  Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.  Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.  You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.  And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.  And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.  With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.  Be cheerful.  Strive to be happy.
— © Max Ehrmann, 1927


Max passed away in 1945. His remains are buried in Terre Haute, Indiana, a town located near where I grew up. He practiced law, worked in his family's meat packing plant and manufactured blue jeans. Though I have read his poem many times, I never knew who wrote the piece. I thought it must have been written by some ancient Greek philosopher from the "old world". I'm glad I was able to discover the true source of the work. The last line of the piece says "With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.  Be cheerful.  Strive to be happy". Indeed Max, it can be a beautiful world, when we choose to see it that way. Thanks Max, for your inspiration and your wisdom.

Council of Shambhala, August 21,2011 PDF Print E-mail

3:47a.m.  August 21,2011

Greetings and Salutations from we who are the Council of Shambhala. On this, the 58th anniversary of the birth of our vessal, the one called Ashid, we wish to address you who are the saving grace of the planet called Earth. You who are called humanity, have come to deliver the Earth through it's time of need. That need is your love, your compassion and your concern, not only for the Earth but for one another. Each time you show a sign of love and compassion, not only for Earth, but for one another and for self, you exhibit your birthright. you exhibit who and what you are. it is important to understand that indeed, these acts of kindness and compassion are steeped in the Christ Consciousness. The Christ energy has often shared with you that it's own origin is a part of your heritage and your legacy. You doubt, due to your ego, that such a fact might be the case, might be the truth, however we assure you, there could be nothing more true. You are the outcome, you are the result of such a combination of creation. Your truth is one of the heart, your truth is one of love and compassion. Each time you show this to yourself, in any act of love for self, or another, you convince yourself at a deeper level of who you truly are. As you move forward in this powerful time on your planet, give yourself the opportunity to continue to grow in this way. Complete your destiny and your fate by opening the heart center of your soul and pouring this love into all that you do, all that you are and all that you''re becoming. This is the most important thing you can do for your planet, for your soul and for your being. Your race, your planet and your soul need these outpourings of love. Never before now has it been so important that you become a messanger of faith and harmony. We have come together as a Council, as a force, as an energy to motivate you, all of you, to allow this expression of love. Allowance of who you are is becoming paramount to the advancement of the Earth, the Universe and the Cosmos. You and your leaders cannot accomplish the truth of your process and progress unless and until you become this expression we speak of. You know who and what you are. At the deepest root of your soul, you know what you are here for. Whether in your sleep, your prayer, or your meditation, you get constant glimpses, visions and images of who you are. Do not allow those images to go unnoticed. Pay attention and allow them to surface. Allow them to rise up into your consciousness so you may become the living example of that Christ Consciousness on your planet. This is more important now than ever before. In this time of uncertainty, show those around you who you are, show yourself who you are and sieze the moment to master your lessons and yourselves, that you may bring the Earth plane and all of the universe forward, into the age of awareness, into the age of completion, into the age of the Creator.

We, the Council of Shambhala, and all of the other Councils, encourage you and assure you, this is indeed who you are.
