Seven Cosmic Laws...

You can never return to a less-aware state.

  In every Human Being there is profound divinity. But it's not intuitive.

You are dearly loved.

 Everything that you learn spiritually in one expression carries over to the next.

 You give permission of the cosmos to rearrange things around you.

  As soon as you start this search of yours, as soon as you push on the door, as soon as Spirit sees pure intent, all of your universal family knows it.
 
Every single one of you has an effect on the fabric of reality on this planet when you send light.



These are The seven cosmic laws of Kryon.

Choose to do unto others....

Were you aware that most of the major religions of the world have in their sacred scriptures a version of the Golden Rule that is so similar that it reads almost the same?  The Golden Rule is a very logical statement about treating people the way you want to be treated.  It is so logical that not following it does not make sense.  Check out the comparisons:
http://www.unification.net/ws/theme015.htm
and  http://www.teachingvalues.com/goldenrule.html
So why are religions always fighting each other?  Could it be a human factor in there somewhere?  And don’t say “the devil made me do it” because the only devil is the evil that humans are capable of.  

It Only Takes A Thought...

A small planet at the edge of the Milky Way is completing a cycle and its human inhabitants are growing up.   It doesn’t look that way to most of us.  Wanting peace, we seem to have gotten more wars and more attacks.   Wanting comfort, we seem to be getting more extremes of weather and planetary upheavals.   We can think of the changes that are happening, the evolution of the planet and her people as a result of the galaxy having completed an orbit and has arrived in an area of great energy or we can think of the earth having received an influx of higher vibrational energy from the God source itself.   It doesn’t matter.   What matters is that it is happening and we can make life better for ourselves and our loved ones if we start tuning into this new energy.   Setting an intent to do so will start that process.  And we can do a lot for ourselves and others if we direct some of this energy to places that are going through some of the birth pains and upheavals of the earth.  We often speak of our world as being a world of duality waging a great battle between darkness and light.   If you are in a dark room and light a match or turn on a flashlight that darkness starts to disappear.  Darkness cannot stand where there is light.   The energy of now is making it easy to assist those in need.   And if there is even a possibility of all of this leading toward peace on earth and humans working together to birth a renewed world,  isn’t it worth a thought of light sent to Norway, Somalia, Iran, or someplace next door that has been devastated by a destructive human or a tornado or flood. 
“I intend that this light that I send will illuminate the darkness and illuminate the heart of someone who needs love.”  Thats all it takes.   It is a new time.  It only takes a thought.

An Irony of Extremes...

Norway and in particular the city of Oslo, has become a place of irony showing us the extremes human are capable of. 
Norway is home of the Nobel Prize.  Alfred Nobel was an engineer and inventor with many inventions the most infamous of which was dynamite.  Approximately 8 years prior to his own death he read his own obituary in a French Newspaper.  It was actually his brother that had died but the newspaper had gotten it wrong.  The title of the obit was “The Merchant of Death is Dead”.  Being called the Merchant of Death disturbed him and he changed his will and started what would become the world renown Nobel Prize. 
On 7/22/2011 Norway became a place of tragedy, in which a great bomb blast and the shooting of many children showed us the other extreme humans are capable of.
This is another example of fundamental belief carried to an extreme. 
All religions are a result of the human search for God and all religions have a basic belief in Love.  
What is it about humans that make us so capable of such destructive behavior?  And yet we are capable of the best of behavior, generous and loving and caring.
What is your reaction to this tragedy?   Will you react in Love and compassion?  

A conversation with Gaia...

In 2008 I began what was to be a letter of love to Gaia my sweet and lovely mother earth and soon found it was to become a letter from Gaia to me.   I began: 
“I love you Gaia.  I can feel your life, your energy and your magic.  And I can feel your pain.” 
It was then that she began to speak to me.   “There is always pain when there is birth my dear one.  I love you too.  You are my beautiful Shadow Hawk, who sits in the shade in a tree in the Enchanted Forest waiting, watching for a message of hope.  Perhaps now you will have your message."  
She went on to say, “I want to start by going back a long time.   When you and I first met, you visited me often while you were still in spirit form.  That is perhaps when we began our love affair.  But the first time you came in a body was a delight to both of us.  There are places on me, on this planet, that still hold the beautiful happy energy of a child new to the planet and new to a physical body.  You played in the forests and the grasslands.  You befriended all of the birds and the animals, even those who would have you for their dinner.  This was a wondrous happy time for you.  You climbed the trees, swam in the pristine lakes and rivers and oceans.  And you would lie on your back in the soft warm sand of my beaches or curl up in the waving grasses under a tree.  It was then that you would talk to me. 
It was then, already then, you called me Mother.”
We had several conversations then, 2008.  I never published or did much with the information.  Looking at it now I think it was mostly meant for me.  She did make one statement that I want to share with you, perhaps there will be more later, perhaps I will resume my conversations, but for now this is what I wanted to share of my conversations with Gaia: 
“I am Gaia the spirit of this great rock that houses you my dear humans.  Listen and come back to me.  Our connection has become like a marriage that has grown distant and cold.  Come back to me; learn how you and I need each other and we can begin to heal this distance between us.”

Make it so...

Our future is getting better all the time and our children will live in a wonderful world.   I know that in a lot of ways it doesn’t look like this will happen but it will.  Some years back the Soviet Union fell, the Berlin Wall came down.  China is no longer a threat to the USA because of the trade and the fact that they have supported us financially.   Dictators are falling all over the planet and a lot of that is happening in the middle East as we speak.  Won’t it be a wondrous day when we can say to another, “peace on earth good will toward man” ... and woman,  and not only mean it but be able to see that it is taking place.   All that is going on with the planet right now, earthquakes, floods, fires, volcanoes, is the earth adjusting itself to the new energy.   All of these things will take a little time but in a few years, perhaps a generation or two, things will be so much better.   And if there is nothing else we can do about it we can start thinking of the half full glass, being more positive, and putting our own intent for a peaceful fulfilling world out into the universe.  Did you see that quote yesterday?  “no greater power in the Universe than Human Intent and Love.  As humans we totally underestimate our power.  The captain of the starship Enterprise would tell his officer, “make is so”.
Make it so...
And so it is...

Imagine...

“There's A New World Coming
and It's Just Around The Bend
there's A New World Coming
this One's Coming To An End”  Powerful lyrics from a Cass Elliot song
“Imagine all the people Living life in peace...
Imagine all the people Sharing all the world...”
John Lennon was quite a dreamer, was he not?  And if one believes we come back, he will most likely be here to see the fruition of his dreams.   If we can imagine something, it can happen. 
Remember what it says in the Bible about letting your light shine?
Some wise words from Kryon (http://www.kryon.com/):  “There is no greater power in the Universe than HUMAN INTENT and LOVE...”  So let us throw a little intent and lot of love out there and help bring about the new world, people living life in peace sharing all the world. 
Human intent.... Love.....
Imagine...

The Dawn of a New Day....

The night is dark and punctuated with wind and storms that blow through with heavy rain and hail.   You keep going because you have to.  There are others also on the road trying to find their way.  Sometimes it is so dark you can’t even see the road.  Someone takes your hand and you hear them say.... “This way”.  You have reached back and done the same for another.  The incline gets steeper but that is an indication to you that you are getting close to your destination.   And yes, you can see a dim light low to the horizon, in front of you.  You top the crest of the hill and the light is brighter.  Stumbling, you pull yourself up and see a stretch of road in front of you, only this road is wide and smooth.  Others are scrambling up around you and behind and are seeing the same thing.  You hear someone call out, “look there are people coming toward us.” and yes, you see them.   The dawn is brighter behind them but you can see that they come toward you with open arms, welcoming. One in particular seems to be coming directly to you... and that person is calling your name.   Then you are in their arms, in an embrace and they are whispering in your ear, “Welcome, I am so proud of you, You made it.”  You realize you have been met by your future self.   “Come with me”, your future self says, taking your hand.  “ Your future is bright and there are many wonderful things in store for you.”  Together you and your future self walk into the light of the new dawn. 
This new dawn is waiting for you.  It will take some time but there is a beautiful, peaceful future ahead for us and those we leave behind.  Take the hand of your future self and march unafraid into the dawn of a new day.   

God in our own backyard...

A lot of the motivation for what we do can be attributed to our search for God even though most might never admit it.   All of our religions were started because someone had an idea of what they thought God was/is.  They told people about it and religions were born.  All because someone was searching for God.   We all search for God.  What if, as in the tales of those who have searched for something all their lives and return home discouraged and downhearted only to find the subject of their search right in their own back yard.  What if, metaphorically speaking that is the way it is with God. In the old vibration we would never had been able to understand that we are a part of God, that God is in our DNA and perhaps that is the most amazing piece of information to be learned from the new vibration.   Many of us spent a lot of our lives actively searching for God.  This religion, this idea, never a satisfying answer, only to come aware in the new energy of our changing planet, and find that God is within.   That which we called The HOLY SPIRIT is  our portion of God, our HIGHER SELF, and it resides in our own DNA.  God is not only in our own backyard  God is in us.  We were created in the image of God and there it is, the blueprint of love and perfection in our own DNA.   

“Master I have another question.”

“Master I have another question.”  
“ Sparrowhawk, There was a time when you were told you ask too many questions.   You were told people like you that ask too many questions were difficult to love.   You can put that away now.  That was long ago.  Now you can ask all of the questions you wish.  Here we encourage you to ask questions, even as we sometimes ask you to answer them.   What is the question you wish to ask?”
“Thank you Master, I would ask you to help me to learn about patience and tolerance.   Sometimes I do not show much patience with others, and sometimes I do not show much tolerance of others.  Tell me about patience and tolerance and how I can learn to show more of both.”
“Sparrowhawk, you ask good questions.   You have learned much about these subjects already.   When you feel that you are not being patient or tolerant enough with another for whatever reason.  Think of these things:
 “Just like me, this person is seeking happiness in his/her life.”
 “Just like me, this person is trying to avoid suffering in his/her life.”
 “Just like me, this person has known sadness, loneliness and despair.”
 “Just like me, this person is seeking to fill his/her needs.”
 “Just like me, this person is learning about life.”
When you think of these things you will be putting yourself in the place of the other, you will be seeing God in them.  You will begin to feel patience and tolerance for them and what they may or may not have done.   And you will have learned compassion in the process.  By showing the other patience and tolerance you will have taught them compassion.  Thank you Sparrowhawk for asking these questions.”

Thank you http://zenhabits.net/a-guide-to-cultivating-compassion-in-your-life-with-7-practices/
for the five “just like me” statements above.  

“Speak of compassion, Master”

“Speak of compassion, Master”, the student said.  “I see people that seem to call to themselves all kinds of adversity and I don’t think I always feel compassion for them and their misfortune.”
“My child” said the Master, “It is for that very reason that we should feel compassion for others.  When we are able to look at the other, and see God in them and when we are able to look at the other, no matter his fortune, and see ourself in them, then we are feeling compassion.  All are children of the ONE SOURCE and they are looking for God in their own way even as you and I are.  When we can look upon them as we would want ourselves to be seen, when we can do for them as we would have them do for us... we are expressing compassion.  By your asking the question, my child, you are learning about compassion.  It is compassion that will turn the tide and bring peace to our beloved home.  Thank you, my child, for asking this question about compassion.” 

Ken Carey-Visionary

I want to introduce the poetic and beautiful written work of Ken Carey.   He hasn’t produced new work that I am aware of since 1991 but there was a time that I carried a copy of his work, VISION, with me and gave it to friends.  This is a short passage from his latest work, THE THIRD MILLENNIUM:
“A new cycle of life begins upon the earth.  The awareness that rides the currents of eternal love awakens in the enlightened understanding of a resonant human species and looks out across the landscape of Creation as far as the eye can see--oceans, continents, rivers, lakes, mountains, forests, jungles, cities, nations-- and beyond, to where eyes cannot see--stars and endless worlds upon worlds.”
The awakening that is going on now among the people of earth is that “awareness that rides the currents of eternal love”.    

Of Spirit and Horse Farts

Daily now my understanding grows.  It is as this quote from A COURSE IN MIRACLES  “Like a song whose name is long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you heard completely unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, attached not to a person or a place, or anything particular. But you remember, from just this little part, how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you heard it, and how you loved those who were there, and listened with you.” 
And suddenly those lyrics of the song of spirit, all come flooding back and you start to hum and then sing the entire song.  
That passage ends with this, “And, when you see it in each other, you ARE remembering for everyone.”
Yesterday I was sitting at the table outside, the sun was out part of the time, it was nice...  Occasionally a hawk would be circling above.   I was writing and remembering.   Then from across the barnyard one of the horses farted.   It brought a smile to my face and brought me back to life on planet earth.   The song of spirit was in my soul and I was listening to the song of earth.  Then she farted again....  An impressive punctuation mark, don’t you think? 

More numbers today...

Have you seen alot of elevens lately.  You know, like on your digital clocks.  11:11, 7:11. I certainly have.  and the date today is one with two elevens and one seven.  Remember last week we had two sevens and then the year 2011. 
That date had a lot of powerful energy for me.   I’m wondering what today will bring. 
Eleven is a master number with the vibration of illumination and enlightenment.   The seven is a number with the vibration of spirituality, completeness and introspection.   And again we have the 2011 which is the year of the planet, Gaia, the earth.   A powerful combination, is it not?
I would suggest again, pausing for a time today and draw the energy to you.  Open yourself to enlightenment and illumination.   What is it that you need some illumination on?  Use the vibration of the seven to allow a little introspection.   Send the planet your love and gratitude.  Ask the universe for that enlightenment and illumination.  You might be surprised how well it works. 

Our gift to life...

If you had a gift to give to the world, a legacy of some kind, to leave behind you, what would it be?   I have thought a lot about this very question for myself and I will revisit this in a year and see if it is the same.  But for now:
What I would consider my legacy to be would be my awareness of two things.   My first Awareness that I would tell people about, that I would leave as my legacy, would be that we are all ONE, completely connected, made of the same stuff and despite our separation and differences, humans are really Many parts of One.   I honor and celebrate this awareness by wearing a white plastic bracelet that has the word ONE embossed on it.  This bracelet is from a great organization called One.org that works to eliminate hunger and aids from Africa and the planet.  I wear the bracelet because it constantly reminds me that we are ONE.
The second awareness I would leave with the world are my ideas and understandings of God and the fact that God is so much more, so more beautiful, so much more awe inspiring than we can ever imagine. 
Oh, and perhaps, there really is one more thing... and that is that all is well with my soul and with the world.  In spite of all that happens that we judge good or bad, positive or negative, that all really is O.K.  
What is the gift that you would leave, your legacy, to the world?

Happy High Vibration, Happy July 7th, 2011....

Today is 7/7/2011.  In numerology the numbers 7 and 11 have very high spiritual vibrations. The year 2011 is the year of the planet, Mother Earth, of Gaia.     Add to that the double vibration of the 7, the vibration of Spirituality, completeness, and introspection, we have a very powerful vibration for this day, July 7, 2011.  Pause for a moment or more, today.  Feel that high vibration, draw it to you, ground yourself with it.  Send the planet your love and gratitude.  This is a good day to make contact with your Higher Self, the part of you that is in constant connection with you, others, the world and All That Is.  Happy high vibration.   Happy July 7th. 

My Beliefs and My Joy...

Today a couple of quotes that speak of my beliefs and my joy:
“Each of us is a spark of consciousness in a larger, unified Consciousness, a cell in the heart of one Divine Being.”    COURAGEOUS SOULS by Robert Schwartz

“We are in the NOW moment and we can reengineer whatever we find, now and in the years to come.  We do this by creating holons--situations where opposing forces agree to cooperate with each other for mutual benefit--for the highest good of all.  And we do this by finally recognizing we are all children from the same Source, headed in the same direction, participants in the same drama.
The only real issue is love.
The only real commandment is:  Do unto others as you would have them to unto you.”
BEYOND THE INDIGO CHILDREN by P.M.H. Atwater, L.H.D.

Spiritual Mastery

What did the great spiritual masters all have in common?
Unconditional Love
They did not take things personally
They saw the Divine in everyone and everything
They knew how to handle fear
They did not judge

Is spiritual mastery something we can strive for?
Is it something we should strive for?
Can you think of more to add to the above list?
Email me at sparowhwk@gmail.com and I will do another entry on spiritual mastery later in the month and include some responses.  

Independence Day.... Independence from a higher perspective

For whatever reason I am not one to celebrate holidays.   I find them a bit of a nuisance, except I liked having the day off from work when I worked full time.  Perhaps, it is the crowds, the noise, I really don’t know why I don’t like holidays.   So on this July 4th, I am going to write about independence from a higher perspective.   
I don’t have a date, and perhaps there isn’t a specific date I could point to but I consider my independence day to be the day that I decided that most of what our organizations give us is illusion, possibly downright lies and I wanted to find out the truth, what ever that might be.  A great many countries have holidays called “Independence day” and most of them refer to a date when some great battle or some declaration was made that freed them from the tyranny of a person or country.   I think the internet now has a great deal to do with more tyrants falling, more people around the world claiming their independence.   Take a look at your own life, what tyrants have control of your emotions, your life, your happiness?
Ask the questions, ask for help, decide you can overthrow those tyrants, habits, addictions, materialism, what ever they might be, and declare your own day of independence.   It’s a good feeling and will move you a long distance along your path of spiritual understanding.  You can choose to become the powerful loving being you were meant to be.
