I’m Over All That (17 page)

So I definitely feel the effect that the acceleration of time is having on human life. Terry keeps me grounded to the time of nature. I will take time to listen to the rustle of the leaves because her ears are perked up. Surrendering to her rhythm when we walk has helped me not to stumble. Watching her watch a bird in a tree has become hypnotic for me. She doesn’t move a muscle, seems to even stop breathing. She becomes one with the bird and the tree and the moment. It is a moment of stop-time bliss.

But when I am stressed, I will stack items in my arms and fingers so I won’t have to make another trip to another room. Of course I drop whatever it is and usually forget what I was so concerned about anyway. If I had to be patient and wait for a life or death verdict on something, I wouldn’t know how to handle it.
God, give me patience and please do it now!

So time is a subject that has raised my curiosity since I was young. I will attempt to simplify what I’ve read, and hope it is understandable. I’m not sure it is even to me.

I understand holographic time because of an out-of-body experience I had. I was in a boat on a river. You could say I was moving along a river of time. I knew what time it was immediately in front of me and immediately behind me, but as I was leaving my body I saw a far greater distance behind the boat on the river and a far greater distance up ahead. What time would that make each distance I was viewing? It was relative. I realized that all time was happening at once. If I had stayed on the boat the distance behind me would have been in the past. But viewing the scene from above I saw that I was seeing the past in the present. So, as Einstein promised, time is not linear. It is relative, which, as he says, means it doesn’t really exist. We invented it so we could feel secure in what we call the present. Because of that experience I understand how our perception of time is relative. When it comes to my understanding space-time, it was more complicated.

When I relax and feel into time I realize that different times of the day and night have different qualities. It’s as
though time has various personalities. These various time qualities govern how we behave. Sunrise time affects us differently than midnight time. It’s not just a question of the physical position of the sun and moon. It’s also a question of when they are in space and that then becomes space-time. Every object in space-time is affected by the energy it encounters. So, since time doesn’t stand still, neither does space. So no experience of space-time is the same as what went before. Therefore, boredom is impossible if a living being feels into the changing qualities of space-time.

To me, that is why live theater is so exciting and unnerving. It’s never the same, not only because each audience is different, but because the space-time in which we perform is different. That is probably why so many people have stage fright. They can’t rely on what they think they already know. I’m always fascinated when I perform live that it feels so entirely different every “time.”

We live performers always wish we could capture what exquisite communication went on the night before. But that’s impossible because everything in the personality quality of space-time is different, even an hour later. So I have come to understand that the Great Cosmic Clock in the sky is moving. Time moves and the clock moves. The changes in the quality of time concerns how we living beings are influenced. All of it is changing.

When I was in Peru doing
Out on a Limb,
the Peruvian
shamans told me that a new species of Homo sapiens was about to appear. They called the new humans “homo luminous.” They told me that the forerunners of homo luminous were already among us. A new human was emerging, one that would possess qualities that we do not now have. That is because the qualities of space-time have not been as advanced before. They said our spiritual existence is a unique combination of free will and predestination. We each came in with a destiny, but free will can pull us out of alignment with that destiny. That is why it is so necessary to be in touch with our true selves. The true self is totally in touch with the movements of space-time and never fixed in either time or space.

From the ancient Egyptians to the Incas and Mayans, the Tibetans and the Hebrew kabbalists, they understood the secrets of the alchemy of time. In our modern times of stress and technology, we are diverting ourselves from these understandings. Therefore, we are out of sync with nature, time, and even our own destinies. The alchemists of Egypt and medieval Europe knew that time moved in great elongated cycles and that each part of each cycle had a precise quality. Those qualities shaped and reformed the world. When the cycles of time change, so do the events on Earth.

The sacred scientists and alchemists of our past used their perceptions of space-time to predict the future. Nostradamus somehow understood the mysterious process of space-time. He saw the different qualities of space-time in relation to
the personalities of the people. And all of the mystics knew that their processes were tied to the precession of the equinoxes. They understood that the stars in the night sky were not fixed. Creating the zodiac system to assist them in their measurements of time, they used the twelve zodiac signs as a giant clock. They realized that it took
2
,
160
years to move through each sign of the zodiac, and it took nearly
26
,
000
years for the equinoxes to move through all twelve signs. The creation of the Great Year of
26
,
000
years gave them a clock that allowed them to measure time.

Then they came to understand that each of the signs (or places on the clock) appeared to bring forth changes in the quality of life here on Earth. The changes on Earth reflected the quality of each sign. And each
2
,
160
years, the quality of time changed.

So as I look at what I learned, I realize that we are coming to the end of the space-time that has been involved in the great
26
,
000
-year cycle. The changes in the qualities of time cannot be held at bay. We are coming to the end of time as we knew it to be. We are in
2012
starting a new cycle of consciousness.

I feel it every day. For example, even as I write this I feel I am coming down with a cold or the flu. I increased my vitamins, I drink a lot of water, and I rest. But last night I had a dream about the intricacies of how to further avoid the real onset of the flu. I realized I had had the exact same dream a year ago when flu season came around. In the dream I remembered every detail of how to avoid getting really sick.
I never got the flu the year before, and I knew I wouldn’t this year as long as I remembered the dream. What struck me, though, was that my brain had memory of the year-before dream stored. That meant that everything we think or experience is stored somewhere. It was the first time I realized what the Akashic Records meant.

T
he universe itself has memory. It records and remembers everything that ever happened and is equipped with a dimension of consciousness that stores these memories, a dimension that is sometimes called the Akashic Records. Akasha is a Sanskrit word meaning “primarily substance, that out of which all things are formed.” It is the crystallization of spirit. It is so sensitive that the slightest vibration anywhere in the universe (any thought or action) registers an indelible impression upon it. In modern terms it is the Book of Life.

Since each of us has a soul and a vibrational frequency, our thoughts and actions are equipped to be recorded in the Akashic Records, and those records can be accessed any time if we know how. Past-life therapy sessions enable us to access our Akashic Records. But the privacy of the Akashic Records of others is protected by veils of separation so they can’t be used for any reason. When an adept or spiritual master has
reached the level of universal trust, it is possible to read the records of others. A psychic is allowed to read the Akashic Records of a client because the energy and frequency of the client permits it. When we open the Akashic Records for our own perusal, we enter a mind state of universal oneness with the Divine.

I have felt this state when I do my past life therapy sessions. I’m never judgmental of myself or anyone else who has figured in my past when I touch the Records. I’m in a divine illumination which enables me to understand more clearly what my life has been about. My purpose becomes clear as has the road to understanding it. When I’m touching that divine knowledge, I am in a universal state of consciousness. I’ve found that the knowledge of who I am and who I have been is given to me at a manageable rate. It may be overwhelming at first, but is then met with a sense of relief. “Oh, that is what that was all about.”

I’m told by the Dalai Lama that the Records are governed and protected by a group of nonphysical light beings called the Lords of the Records. When we access them, we are able to see the events and lessons of past incarnations. So the Akashic Records are the soul-level blueprint and the catalogue of experiences of an individual soul as it becomes aware of his or her spiritual journey through time.

The damage done by the Christian churches in eliminating the knowledge of the primary experience of a soul’s journey through time is immeasurable. When we realize we
have lived before and will live again, it instills in us a sense of cosmic justice that makes us responsible for our actions. When we believe that when we die there is no more, it gives us permission to express the worst in ourselves with no understanding of responsibility for our actions. It took Einstein and other scientists to prove that energy returns to its source. What one puts out, one gets back. Thus the laws of karma are obvious in scientific circles. Science understands and has proven that no energy ever dies—it just changes form.

So the idea that we only live one life is more detrimental than we can imagine. It can justify war, greed, and totalitarian control. But when we understand that what we do in this lifetime will dictate what needs to be cleaned up in the next, human behavior becomes more balanced and sane.

I so admire the behavior of the Dalai Lama in his relations with China. He has pointed out to the Tibetan people that in past incarnations they were cruel to the Chinese people for various geopolitical reasons and are now suffering some of that return energy.

I spent two weeks with the Dalai Lama in Brazil during the eco-conference in
1992
. I learned a great deal about kindness, patience (not enough, some would say), and humor. It was fascinating to me that so many world leaders were unconsciously afraid of him. They seemed to innately understand that his system of cosmic justice was observing them. The absence of judgment on his part bothered them more than anything. I marveled at how the Dalai Lama stood in front
of twenty thousand people and spoke without notes for hours. It was as though he was channeling some divine information (which I believe he was) to people who longed to understand but were not prepared to integrate it into their belief systems.

Sometimes, seemingly for no reason, he would stop talking and just laugh. He would laugh for minutes at a time as though watching a divine comedy in his head. He seemed to be a simple man, as we ate together, sat together, and traveled together. I have pictures of him that smile down on me from my Wall of Life. He lights up the room as though the pictures are alive.

I find it fascinating that his beliefs in the soul’s journey through time (reincarnation) never elicit cynicism or derision, but that same belief from a Westerner who works in show business elicits derisive smirks. Maybe it’s only a matter of wardrobe.

The Dalai Lama probably has less information in his Akashic Records than any other human because he chooses to keep coming back as what he was before. I’ve watched a ceremony where a new Panchen Lama was found because the child knew objects and information from the past. Perhaps this is the way the Buddhists help to maintain a fairly karmic-free individual because he is short on experience.

The Akashic Records are proof to me that all time is occurring at once. Because when they are accessed, they are not linear. And there is Akashic information about the probabilities in the future for each soul, depending on their free will.
All souls exist in perfection as part of the light of the Creator. With physical incarnational experience we accumulate karma. Our soul’s decision to enact our free will and become physical is what is called third-dimensional life.

I remember one of my first physical incarnational experiences. I, as a cocreating soul with the God Creator, had fashioned a beautiful, gigantic, feather-winged lizard. I remember the iridescent colors of the feathers and the power of its body, which I wanted to fly with. I became so enamored with what I created that I entered its body and commanded it to fly. The experience was so exhilarating I didn’t want to leave and float back to my home, the ethereal. As a soul, I desired to
live in the body of what I had created,
hence my first incarnational experience. After a while I had the feeling of being trapped. I knew my real soul-home was the nonphysical ether, but I couldn’t get back. Such is the free will of creativity.

I remembered many other physical experiences determined by my free will creativity when I accessed my Akashic Records. The Records enable us to interact with our spiritual resource and gain insight and guidance and understanding of what we are doing with Earth time and space. This is why I’ve always been so interested in mystics and people who seem to operate with another reality, which I know is as real as that which is accepted. That was why I traveled so much and tried to learn about other cultures and points of view.
