Celestial Beings

The only way to know truth is through your spiritual guide. These are called angels in Christianity. The word angel means messenger, but the problem with how we visualize angels is that we imagine them as figures of light, when in fact, they are figures of loving kindness. When the I Am speaks, it is through your guiding angel, your closest ally. I can say this only because I have a decade long friendship with an angel (or celestial being) that I can only call David. He has been a stalwart ally and spiritual guide. We can’t know what the one God is exactly, but we can know that it is good, and David has proven it to me.
Buddhism teaches that celestial beings deny nirvana in order to enlighten more souls and bring them with them into bliss, David is apparently doing that with me. I want to be clear, however, that this does not make me holy. It just means that I slow down often enough to hear his voice.

When we meditate, the goal is not to be right, but to be love. We spend so much of our time “circling the wagons,” as Richard Rohr puts it, instead of opening our gates and letting life happen. If we are afraid of what might happen, we will never live. The awakened heart is not as concerned with control as it is with equity, and it has no patience for any concept that excludes any group. We can’t live with these “isms” (racism, sexism, creedism, etc.) any longer. The whole world is waking up together, or not at all. 

When we meditate, we let go of conceptual thinking. We let go of our small self and our egoic mind in order to find a deeper place within us. This deeper place (our angelic self) is waiting to be realized, and is not concerned with the opinions of the world, but won’t be realized until we take the time to nurture a relationship with loving kindness. Again, we should slow down and experience the closed mind before it can be opened. This sounds strange, I know, but our egoic personalities will shut us off from our deepest purpose. To me, this is the “satan” that rules the world: judgment and human ego. All earthly evil was produced by these. Evil has no foothold without us, and must be undone. 

Back to the angels; your guide will help you through all of this, but you must be patient. God works on God’s time only, and the celestials are obedient to that. Don’t rush your process, as if you can see better than them anyway. Divine beings are experienced, very old, and only need our willingness to succeed. My celestial and I are close because I continue to slow down and listen, and I’m sure that makes the great truth happy too. Remember to approach life with willingness and not to set too harsh of boundaries with your neighbors. We all need a little understanding. 

Buddhas be with us
