For Sunday May 17th, 2020

Hello everyone, here's a story: A young boy sought to trick the 'wise one' of the village. The boy had caught a bird and was holding it in his cupped hands. "I'll ask the wise one if it's alive or dead," planned the boy. "If the answer is 'dead' I'll release it to fly away. If the answer is 'alive' I'll..." The wise one appeared just then. The boy asked his question as the wise one gazed kindly at him. Gently touching the boy's shoulder the wise one answered, "It's life is in your hands."

So it goes with each moment of our lives. Spiritual responsibility is not avoided by clever manipulations. 

May we sit this Sunday to be aware of ourselves, to see how we treat others, and to be as kind as we can be to our very own selves during these challenging times.

With Blessings for all,

Richard

Hello everyone, in his book "Living Your Divine Life" Orest Bedrij writes, "...if you are a majestic Giant Sequoia tree you should live the life of a majestic Giant Sequoia tree; if you are a magnificent bald eagle you should live the life of a magnificent bald eagle. Conversely, since "You are the light of the world" (Matt 5:14) you should live and help others to live the life we were all meant to live – as "the light of the world.""

May we sit this evening for us to somehow, someway, sometime, be 'the light of the world' for ourselves and for others as well.

Thank you all,

Richard

Hello everyone, we're told that for most of it's existence humanity has been up against nature. Now however, there is a greater challenge. Given the current state of the world we can now see that humanity is up against it's own nature. Perhaps this will help.

Give me a pure heart – that I may see Thee,
A humble heart – that I may hear Thee,
A heart of love – that I may serve Thee,
A heart of faith – that I may abide in Thee.
- Dag Hammarskjold

May we treat the sicknesses of the world by healing ourselves. May we pray for those who provide us with our greatest challenges. May we forgive ourselves our basic humanness.

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday April 26th, 2020

Greetings to all, we are told that God is necessary to us that we may exist, and that we are necessary to God that God may manifest to Itself. We, and the entire wacky journey we are on, are how God knows Itself, proves Itself to Itself.

With this we understand that each and every one of us are part of an expression of God, some more lost, some more found, but all are on a path of the full manifestation of God.

May we sit this Sunday for the realization that everyone we meet has Divinity within them. Everyone single person we meet is showing us some personal facet of The Path. And therefore, everyone we meet is more essential than we can grasp. With this awareness may we find our way through this life as though moving among incomparable jewels.

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday April 19th, 2020

Hello to everyone, the lessons which push us into a more heart-felt existence are numerous. And sometimes, when our attachment to material gains and external power is great, the lessons can become quite harsh to endure. 

As lessons go, this virus is merciful. There is much we can do to mitigate it, and to learn from it. It is far less painful than nuclear war or massive geologic upheavals. 

May we take time this evening to review ourselves. What are our attachments? Where are our hearts? How can we make a movement toward the Oneness which calls to us all?

Thank you,

Richard

For Sunday April 12th, 2020

Hello to all, in a very timely manner this virus is providing us with a liberation and a rebirth; it forcefully exposes the weaknesses in our society – and beauty shines through with the incredible strength of courage and compassion in individuals. 

In keeping with this season of light overcoming darkness let us see the light in ourselves, recognize the light in others, and take in the incredible beauty still to be found in the world at large.

May we sit this evening with our hearts open. May we be the recipients of spiritual beauty. And from there, may we shine.

Thank you all for all you do,

Richard

Donna Spring Gulick's Channeling on Coronavirus

Channeling on Coronavirus

 

Donna's Prayer: Allness of God, Angels & Guides who serve the Christ Light, I am open to receive info on the Coronavirus as it now is displaying on Earth, and as it is progressing.  What do we need to know – as humanity and as individuals and families?

 

"My precious Ones, first of all, Coronavirus too is a life form.  Strengthen your own life forms, your bodies. Use mushrooms, herbs, homeopathics and inner-peace to boost your immune systems. Yes, people get sick and some die. But no one dies unless they either want out of this Earth-life, or the death of their body at this time fits their soul's needs, goals and service.

 

Fear decreases your immunity; so ask what you need to do to be happy on Earth, to serve, to love and to be thankful. Creativity boosts your immunity, so does singing, laughing and even smiling.  All these emotions increase your immunity and decrease your symptoms if you do get sick. Trust your soul; it is wise and all-seeing in choosing your path. Whatever that path is – you are right where you need to be.

 

The most important vitamin you can take is thankfulness and appreciation of the little blessings in every moment. What flower is blooming in front of you? What tiny bug shows vitality to admire? What rocks in your gravel shine with beauty? What sharing with stranger or friend – a smile – a helper on the phone – a blessing you had not expected - will come your way today? In the evening, it is wise to reflect on these gifts – shared over dinner or in prayer at bedtime.

 

How global will the virus become? Of course it will spread, and people will get sick. Will it cause massive deaths like the plague? No, though numbers can be presented to sound that way now that statistics show world-wide effects. Remember that treatment for diseases in China is not equal to treatment in countries with better medical systems. Nations with complex health grids offer advanced medical care. They are preparing even now to supply the facilities and needed medicines and oxygen for the very sick.

 

Remind yourself that the news exists to promote readership, not to provide calming meditations or sometimes, not even common sense.

 

We suggest you read trusted scientific and medical sources about prevention and treatment of this flu virus that put it in the context of modern medicine, as differing from the historical perspective of the early 1900's and before. Prediction, by anyone, emphasizes one possible path, not a certain future. Our other suggestion is to counter the news on illness by reading uplifting writing that makes your spirit happy.

 

So, dear Ones, life is full of change, always. This virus and its effects, as countries and states quarantine themselves, brings changes. Accepting change is a spiritual practice in itself. What choices can you make when small and large changes happen in your life? What circumstances require faith in your soul's journey and love instead of fear? Make your choices mindfully, intuitively, rather than fearfully. You are one with the Light and with Love, and you do know what will help you most.

 

Thank you for listening. Your Light shines brightly, and humanity plus all other consciousness on Earth needs that Light. In the next week or two, Donna will follow this message with a channeling on ways to transform fear. We send you love and thankfulness for being you."

 

Note from Donna: If you wish to receive the next channeling, please reply to this email at donnaspringgulick@gmail.com The Guidance will be on Antidotes to Fear when it Arises. Will there be further channelings on subjects that open our hearts and bring fresh air through the windows of our souls? I don't yet know. In the likelihood that such messages may be available intermittently, please let me know whether to keep you on the mailing list or not. If this message went into your Promotions box, and if you want occasional further channelings, add my address from this email to your Contacts, so it goes into your primary inbox.  Thank you.

 

 Meanwhile, I send Love, Peace and Blessings,

 

Donna

For Sunday April 5th, 2020

Hello to everyone, Edgar Cayce urges us, "If each and every disappointment, each and every condition that arises, is used as a stepping-stone for better things and looking for it and expecting it, then there will still be continued the optimism."

The coronavirus has much to teach us: about the value of truth; what is true leadership; the need to work together cohesively; that we are all physically connected; that what was considered 'normal' was spiritually lost; that human compassion is essential in life; that disasters are often spiritually cleansing – by reminding us of what truly matters.

In the difficulties we now face and in the greater ones to come, may we face our personal challenges with an open heart, and gain a greater perspective.

May we sit this Sunday for the courage and honesty to face whatever may come to us. May we be the light we know the world needs. May we take appropriately healthy care of ourselves so we may take care of others. 

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday March 29th, 2020

Hello everyone, the great teachers tell us that difficulties exist to put us face to face with our human foibles and spiritual limitations – thereby challenging us to bring out the best in ourselves. 

As the Covid-19 tsunami rolls in to reshape the landscape of our lives may we rise to the occasion which is presented to us. For, in the greater perspective, self-care equals world-care.

While we stay home, with seemingly nothing to do, may we monitor ourselves for anger, fear and apprehension. May we seek out avenues of joy and compassion. May we care lovingly for the part of the world which is us.

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday March 22nd, 2020

Hello to all, as Edgar Cayce says, "We do not find ourselves in this position by chance." Times of difficulty are always prompts for spiritual growth. And, as has often been said, "We are far more powerful than we realize." Now perhaps our innate power is to be tested. From the deceptive simplicity of 'stay home' to the heart-splaying connection of sharing unconditional presence with those of similar suffering, we are being given opportunities to rise above where we have been.

May we sit this Sunday to see our path forward, to reach out with our hearts and our (sanitized) hands with the awareness of oneness.

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday March 15th, 2020

Hello everyone, seventy-five years ago this June, President Franklin D. Roosevelt led the Nation in prayer as the full force of the American military advanced onto the beaches of Normandy in France during a world-wide conflict. 

Today we face a different world-wide conflict. The novel coronavirus which causes the disease Covid-19 is apolitical and no respecter of our fragile, arbitrary boundaries. It spreads when unchecked and requires intelligent, active responses to curb that spreading.

Our government is now taking such active responses and a national day of prayer has been declared for this Sunday March 15th as well. It's a fine time to join in.

May we sit this Sunday for the condition of the world. May we all learn our lessons. May we open our hearts with compassion. May our prayers lighten the load of all those who are or will become afflicted. 

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday March 8th, 2020

Hello to everyone, it would be well to keep in mind what the great teachers have often told us – sometimes that which we need spiritually can be vastly uncomfortable. 

Once again the coronavirus grabs attention. As the rules for who can be tested for Covid-19 are relaxed the number of confirmed cases in the US are expected to rise dramatically. This would not be an increase in the spread of the disease but an increase in the detection of it, which is wise.

The precautions for avoiding the disease are the same for the spiritually minded as for everyone else. But with a spiritual foundation you may look more lovingly upon the scenario at large. We have lessons to learn as a society, and as individuals. In the simplest terms, we are learning to love. An open-hearted, non-judgmental, un-fearful view of the process at work can be a calming salve to the afflicted. 

May we sit this evening for the acceptance of our part in this process. May we care for those who are brought before us. May we care for ourselves during this process. May we be guided by love.

Thank you all,

Richard

For Sunday March 1st, 2020

Hello everyone, we all know physical matter is made of energy. There is so much energy contained within even a small amount of matter that the release of it causes massive explosions. But, looking at that process in reverse, what was it that prompted such enormous amounts of pure energy to gather and coalesce into the denseness of physical matter to begin with?

Does Einstein's famous equation (E=mc2) offer a glimpse into the act of creation?

Along with all the serious scenarios which call out for prayerful attention these days, let us also sit for the largest, most loving perspective we can grasp, that we have all come from the same source.

Thank you,

Richard
