Chapter Nine- “Helping” and helpers.

Image
This is a transcript from the channelled fellowhship of the River  in the early 1980’s. I was about to start my therapy career. My question followed a session about the soul path of the Aire Way-the path of compassion, love and relationships. Contemplating this transcript now, I am still disturbed by their thoughts. The answers astonished me when it was first delivered and for a long time, I thought perhaps the River was simply wrong about their statements. There is much to ponder here about helping and helpers. I have been helped by others a lot. But looking back, I see that it was up to me to accept the help, and how I accepted the help was instrumental in how their assistance furthered me along my journey. And whether I took the help with an attitude of entitlement or gratitude. Or even with awareness.   Julia: Can I ask a question? I am engaged in the helping professions - do you have any advice for helpers, people who care for others? River: Helping begins first...

Chapter Eight-Clearing past traumas and unwanted relationships with a crystal

Image
  After the last session, I wondered -how can I ‘program’ a crystal? I searched through other River transcripts and found instructions which I will share here. First, find a crystal that has been harvested honorably. This may seem like a mysterious quality, however if you use your intuition and ask questions of whomever or wherever you are buying the crystal, you may be able to ascertain how the stone was harvested. If the stone was yanked from their bed in a hasty manner with profit as the primary motive, you can intuit if the stone absorbed those toxic vibrations or not. Perhaps it is still possible to work with dishonorably harvested crystal, but you will have to do extra clearing and programing with it. Notice the shop or venue where you buy the crystal. Do they seem like people who understand interconnectiveness? Did they program the crystal before you came to it with greed and sickness or do they love the mineral world? Do they speak about the mineral world with affection ...

Seven of the Most Powerful Healing practices

The River Transcripts Seven Healing Practices March 30, 1989     This transcript was sent to me by the channel after a session when someone asked about healing practices. The question may have been asked by me when I realised that often I was quiet when I would feel more powerful to speak up.  In any case- these teachings are valuable for any part of the spiritual journey towards wholeness.    River: Ask when is love appropriate? When is action appropriate? And when is silence appropriate? It is in silence that the danger of disease arises. Not that speech or noise is harmless, but that in the reason to be silent is confusion or misunderstanding. Silence is only valid when there is no self to hear the noise of others. Then who reacts, is the moment, instead of accumulated selves from the past. So, we say, not silence and not speech, but a third path, the path to the beginning place, the place of home, where action begins, and there, silence is t...

Session Five-Part Two Dream interpretation-listening, noticing, integrating

Image
  During the following nights after the last session, my dreams became unbelievably vivid and easy to remember. I often woke in the middle of night or early morning and jotted down little details that could jog my memory later in the day. Then later in the morning with a cup of coffee, I’d journal using the Three Great Ways for understanding the messages from All knowledge is Within. One dream was so evocative that I woke upright in my bed in a state of total panic. In the dream, I was holding a child in my arms, and two more children followed me as I attempted to escape some dreaded catastrophe by climbing up inside a tower. I was full of sorrow and unbearable fear and suffering. I knew we wouldn’t escape the impending death waiting for us, but I had to try. Was this a warning of something dangerous in my life? If so-what? And how could I escape this terrible disaster? How could I save the children who were trying to escape with me? Was this a past life memory, or someone ...

The River Books-Session 5-Part One Dream people and messages from All knowledge is Within

Image
  There are times when dreams are powerful, clear and carry profound messages about health, relationships, life path, career-all aspects of being. There are other times where dreams are weak and incoherent.   Some mornings I wake up with a vague sense of ambiguous images, fleeing words, the frustration of almost grasping something important, and then losing it. How can I receive better dreams? What can I do before I go to sleep to invite the deep messages that dreams can deliver? How do I understand these inner experiences that seem significant but inaccessible? The next week I returned to the channel’s sunlight apartment with my dream journal in hand, ready with questions.     Julia: Before we get started on other material, can you comment on my dream about a young boy committing suicide? River: As we said, dreams are knowledge within and without. And they should be looked upon as great messages, as ways of understanding the self and where the self is. C...

  Guides of the Three Great Ways The next week was filled with thoughts and questions about the Three Great Ways. I was astonished to discover that I could easily identify people based on their Soul path. I gazed at my co workers at the non-profit organization where I worked and grouped them according to the River’s explanation. I understood more clearly how conflicts at work and at home develop because of different soul paths. My ex-husband was Earth Way, although he had some Water Way tendencies, still his basic insistence on production, survival and appearance in the hierarchy where he worked was troublesome to me. The development of chaotic, inexplicable world events suddenly became more comprehensible to me. With the preponderance of Earth and Aire Way people in the world presently, big picture issues like managing climate change, developing sustainable energy sources, protecting the biosphere and social justice, are obviously too difficult for them to understand because of ...
