The Pen Is Mightier Than The Sword

posted in: Blog, channeling, inspiration | 2

Our title today is an 1839 quotation from 19th-centruy English author Edward Bulwer-Lytton.

As you’ve probably heard, the legendary writer Salman Rushdie was brutally attacked recently as he was giving a speech.

This dreadful event happened at the famous Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, New York. That happens to be a short distance from my old hometown of Westfield in rural western New York State.

As our friend Seth says, “There is never any justification for violence. There is no justification for hatred.Read more

Soul Contracts

posted in: Blog, channeling, spiritual power | 2

If you’ve been on the spiritual path very long, you’ve probably heard of “soul contracts.” But what are they?

Spirit

There is no being in your life by accident—whether it be a human, animal, plant, other sentient being. There are no accidents, only soul contracts.

We realize this may be, as you say, a “hard pill to swallow.” But literally every aspect of your lives, from the most minute to the most monumental, is there because you have put it there.Read more

Life, Death, and Suicide

posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 4

A recent news article talked about a 51-year-old woman who was planning to kill herself last weekend. She has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. As a Roman Catholic, she knows her church condemns suicide.

ALS is a progressive neurological ailment, nearly always fatal. One of our family members died from ALS years ago. It was, as you might imagine, difficult to watch him struggle and finally die years later.

Here are some of our random thoughts and words, over the years, about life, death, suicide, and euthanasia.Read more

The Power of Intention

posted in: Blog, channeling, inspiration | 0

Spirit and Berna had a recent conversation about intention. Her question to them was Can you tell us more about the concept of intention?

Spirit

It is a powerful concept, a powerful tool in your spiritual toolbox. Your intention is everything, because with your intention you can literally change the path of your life. Nothing can be achieved without intention, a clear and powerful intention.

Any time you form an intention (for example, if you want to heal your body of something) you first form the intention to accomplish the healing.Read more

Judgement After Death

posted in: Blog, channeling, life and death | 4

 

The only way you will ever live fully in the visible world is to acknowledge the reality of the invisible world. ~ Spirit

As humans with limited vision, we often ask ourselves, “Will I face judgement after death?” Spirit’s answer, below, likely will sound harsh to some. But the message is clear.

Spirit

Many of you, including Johnny, grew up in deceptive, manipulative religious cultures. You learned to fear God, to fear Satan, to fear life, to fear death. Above all, you learned to fear judgement after death.Read more

What Is Channeling?

posted in: Blog, channeling, mind body soul | 6

Years ago, when I first started communicating with Spirit, I had my own definition of channeling. It was based on all I had read and experienced up till then.

Here is how our website used to define channeling:

“Channeling is simply a bridge enabling us to communicate with spirits in the higher realms. You might prefer to think of it as accessing higher consciousness—or what some call God, Great Spirit, or All That Is.

“Channeling can take various forms such as speaking, writing, painting, dancing, singing, etc.Read more

Now Is the Time for You To Know the Truth about the End of the World

Apocalypse: The complete final destruction of the world, as described in the biblical book of Revelation. ~ Oxford Dictionary

In a recent letter, a reader wrote us, “I, for one, would love to hear what Spirit has to say about these times we are living in.”

So without further ado, here is Spirit.

Spirit

Humans have been predicting and dreading the destruction of life on earth, the end of your world, for centuries.

Guess what? The world really is ending.Read more

The Spiritual Power of Pets

posted in: Blog, channeling, relationships | 6

The more we learn of the true nature of non-human animals, especially those with complex brains and corresponding social behavior, the more ethical concerns are raised regarding their use in the service of man—whether this be in entertainment, as “pets,” for food, in research laboratories, or any of the other uses to which we subject them. ~ Jane Goodall

What Is the One, True Religion?

posted in: Blog, channeling, life purpose | 4

If you look through all the different cultures, right from the earliest, earliest days with the animistic religions, we have sought to have some kind of explanation for our life, for our being, that is outside of our humanity. ~ Jane Goodall

You may remember David Thomas and Matt Klinck, the filmmakers of Tuning In: Spirit Channelers in America. David recently told me about Matt’s seemingly untimely death.

Two months ago, Matt was murdered in Belize, where he had a film production company. As you might expect, his death came as a huge shock to David, and to me also.Read more

What Is the Purpose of Life? by Martha Magee

The purpose of life is soul growth. ~ Martha Magee

spirit in human formSpirit in Human Form

We have many lifetimes, an infinite amount to achieve this purpose (of soul growth). Each lifetime is a learning experience that we choose. Every aspect: our birth, what roles we will play out, karmic issues to be worked out, our parents, our country of origin, hometown, economic-social status, our bodies, our families, ethnic persuasion, beliefs, mental capacity, psychic abilities, constitutional strengths/weaknesses, soulmates, marriages, children, pets, livelihoods, lifestyles, vulnerabilities, talents, affinities, gifts, passions, challenges, addictions, persuasions, preferences, diseases, handicaps, injuries, wounds, accidents, intentions, relationships, friends, hobbies, incarcerations, triumphs, achievements, afflictions and spiritual goals, are ALL chosen by us—for purposes of soul growth.Read more

Happy, Healthy, Dead by John Cali and Spirit

If there were in the world today any large number of people who desired their own happiness more than they desired the unhappiness of others, we could have paradise in a few years. ~ Bertrand Russell

 happy peopleHappy People

Our title today is taken from a conversation with Esther Hicks and Abraham. They were saying we can live long, healthy lives, and then die happily. Hence, “happy, healthy, dead.” I love that!

As those of you who follow Abraham know, they often say death is not serious.Read more

Unlimited Abundance Is Yours by John Cali and Spirit

Money is just as holy as meditation, just as sacred as prayer. It is a wonderful part of God. ~ Neale Donald Walsch

Chicklet-currency

Most of us, one time or another, have struggled with abundance issues, particularly money — giving it and receiving it. The struggle is magnified if we really believe the universe is unlimited, yet see no evidence of it in our lives.

I recently received a letter from a dear friend, one of our readers. She was asking about all the emails she gets (as many of us do) from well-known spiritual teachers.Read more

Two days ago I was out for a walk in the beautiful fall weather we’ve been having. Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, a snarling dog hurled himself at me, taking a chunk out of my leg. As I defended myself, he bit me on the wrist. Finally I managed to chase him off. With my leg and wrist bleeding, I painfully limped back home.… Read more

Dying Is the Easiest Thing You Will Ever Do by John Cali and Spirit

Dying is a spiritual and psychological necessity, for after a while the exuberant, ever-renewed energies of the spirit can no longer be translated into flesh….The self outgrows the flesh. ~ Seth, channeled by Jane Roberts

A few weeks ago one of our readers, Christine Disano-Davenport, sent us a letter. She had recently watched a film and read some books about life after death. Though she enjoyed them, they were disturbing to her. As she put it, “…what is bothering me now is that it (the film and books) is shaking my belief about what happens after we make our transition.”

This past week I had an early-morning appointment. When I went out to my car, it was completely dead—no battery power at all. The battery was brand-new. At first, I started moaning, “Why me?” But I quickly caught myself and stopped that line of thinking dead in its tracks.

Why not me? I knew there was a good reason for this unpleasant surprise. I knew it was something other than what it appeared to be.Read more

In my work people often ask my spirit guides or me how they can learn to channel. While we don’t teach channelling, I am always glad to share with folks my experiences in learning to channel, and in now actually doing it as my only work.

So I’d like to share with you today how it all started for me. If you’re interested in channelling I hope my experiences will give you the incentive to just go ahead and do it.Read more

I’m going to be travelling over the next few weeks. So this post is a brief one.

About a year and a half ago we wrote a post about Mack Wolford, a Pentecostal minister in West Virginia. Pastor Wolford believed Christians should handle poisonous snakes as a test of their faith. And if they were bitten, as he was several times, their faith should save them from death.

In his last service, the day after his 44th birthday, Pastor Wolford was bitten by a timber rattlesnake, refused medical treatment, and died a painful death that night.… Read more

How To Have a Healthy Body All Your Life by John Cali and Spirit

Hope_Peace_Joy_(4207698474)Holiday Candles by Rennett Stowe

With the holidays upon us again, our thoughts turn to celebrations. And celebrations sometimes lead to overindulgence. Overindulgence, in turn, leads to thoughts of how we can create healthier bodies.

Here are a few tips from Spirit.

Spirit

  • Love your body unconditionally—exactly as it is right here and right now. It is part of you, your spirit. You chose it—now cherish it for the gift it is.
  • Your body needs quiet time—meditate regularly. It doesn’t have to be a long time.

The Scent of Roses by John Cali

Image by Bff

One of the most common questions we get in personal readings is “How can I contact my spirit guides?”

The short answer to that is “You don’t have to contact them—they will contact you.”

That sounds like a contradiction since so many people want to contact their guides, but are not succeeding. The reason they are not succeeding is they are not paying attention when the guides actually do contact them—and so they miss an opportunity to connect.… Read more

The Veil Between God and Humans by John Cali

Divine Light by Andrew Kudrin

One of our readers recently asked me this question:

In all the work that you do with Spirit, are you aware of a sense of the consciousness, itself, being the veil between God and man?”

Here’s my reply:

My own personal experience is that consciousness itself is the link, the common ground between God and us. After all, we are God.

“The only difference between God and us, or between spirit guides and us, is that we have temporary human bodies.… Read more

Do You Want To Be Healthy, Happy and Slim? by Barbara Clark

 

tn_Thankyoubody

Where is your focus? Are your negative beliefs being activated?  What is your vibration around being healthy, happy and slim?

Try this simple exercise, say aloud “I am healthy, happy and slim”.  Pay close attention to how you feel when you say the words. How true do they feel?  Do you feel a “stuckness”, resistance, tightness?

Now try, “Why am I so healthy, happy and slim?”. How does that feel? Is there a difference?

This exercise will help you feel  where your vibration is in relation to health, happiness and having a slender body.… Read more
