Lao Tzu received by Al Fike
God bless you, my friends. I am Lao Tzu, once a philosopher and a teacher in China many, many years ago. Today I come to help you understand the nature of your own soul. The teachings that are so prevalent in your world teach about the mind, the spirit and the body, but so little is talked about the soul. For it is not very well understood. Today I want you to know and understand that part of you that is eternal, powerful and has great influence toward your destinies, not only in this material world, but in the spirit world.
Powerful choices are made from that place of soul. Though the mind interprets, the mind has its biases and understandings of what that feeling and knowing may be that comes from the soul, the essence of soul wisdom and soul perception is quite different from the mind’s interpretation of it. As you continue to delve into your soul and develop your soul, receiving the gift of Divine Love, you will come to discern between these two centres of consciousness within you and you will come to realise that the simple essence of soul perception is far more powerful and has more wisdom than the complexities of mindful interpretation and perception.
It is important that you go deep within, my beloved friends. Find your way to the source of who you are. Go beyond the chatter of your minds, the busyness, speculations, judgements and perceptions. These things merely reflect the currents of mindfulness in the ethers of where you live, but underneath that and beyond that, as you dig deep and go through that centre part that is the spirit and go deeper yet to that vital part, the core of you, that is the soul, then truth, in its abundance, complexity, power and simplicity, will be yours. Each of you wants to know truth. Each of you believes that you have a firm understanding of truth. Yet, indeed, the true awareness, the true perception, the true feeling that is truth, is not always experienced in your meditations and contemplations. Rather, you must often entertain the needs of the mind and entertain the feelings of the spirit before you get to the clarity and truth of the soul.
Seek out the truth of the soul, my friends. It will guide you truly. You will not be distracted by wayward thought, judgement and bias. That true passageway of consciousness from your material consciousness to that of the soul will be strengthened and clear as you seek out the soul with every prayer and every meditation. Come to that place, the hearth where the light and the warmth of God’s Love burns and it warms your consciousness in ways and means that bring stability, that bring peace and that bring true understanding. As you grow in this great gift of Love, so your soul is strengthened, awakened, even transformed, purified by the blessing of God’s Hand upon you. You must exercise and be familiar with this process that is happening within you. If you continue to maintain a superficial view of the world, entertain your material mind and its wants, needs, perceptions and projections, then you obscure your true experience and perceptions of soul, who you truly are.
Make efforts, my friends, to go beyond and go deeper, to seek out that which is powerfully true and powerfully of you and you will find great satisfaction there, great peace, joy and understanding. This is where the wisdom comes, my friends, the wisdom of the soul, the knowledge of the soul and the true connection between you and God. These are the truly spiritual aspects which you are seeking. Yet, so many teachings take you to a place of mindfulness and, in a way, superficiality. Here, the simplicity of the soul, the depth of the soul, the breadth of the soul is far more powerful than any teaching and any idea that you may encounter in your search for truth. For truth will come clearly as you seek it out from that place beyond the mind.
Have faith in yourself. Have faith in God and the relationship that you have with God. In this, truth will come abundantly, clearly and powerfully. God is waiting to give you so much, my friends. So much is available, given the right attitude, desire and effort to be in that place, that faculty, that ability that lies within you, that is receptive to the power of truth and the Source of Truth. All will come in accordance to your desires, how you seek out true spiritual progression, understanding and expression. It comes with this great Love of God, the most powerful force in the universe, that not only cleanses you but changes you, transforms you and awakens those faculties that allow you to see and understand in the ways in which I described. Seek this out, my friends, in all the ways that you have been taught. Put aside your mindful speculations, your biases, your fears, your judgements, all these human things. Go directly to the soul. This is where the answers lie and this is where the truth resides.
May you be blessed, my beloved friends, with true soul perception, true soul awareness, true peace, joy and love. It comes with the soul. In this way, the simple path, all that you desire on your spiritual quest, will be given abundantly, freely and profoundly. It is there for you to receive, to be open and to embrace. My friends, what God has to give is beyond anything but human intellect and perception can give to you, that direct relationship, that beautiful empowering Love between you and God, will give you everything that you require on the path. May you be blessed, my friends. I am Lao Tzu. I have come to teach you a little lesson. I hope you appreciate my words. For though words are inadequate, at least they are a beginning, maybe to open that door to your soul. God bless you, my friends. My love is with you all. God bless you.
