Mano Did It Again

It is midnight. I wake up out of a deep sleep. I feel around and ask myself, where am I? Oh my God I am sitting in the living room with my computer on my lap. Deep in sleep I don’t want to wake up. I cling to the chair, hang onto the walls as I work my way to bed.  I lay in bed for more than an hour; it looks like I am not going to simply fall back to sleep. I have experienced being able to fall asleep when listening to a teaching tape. Music doesn’t do it; the sound of a human voice does. 

When I open the computer to start the teaching tape, the screen comes up with a February journal entry from 2017. I become curious and look at the title. Wow! Mano did it again. 

Today is the day I posted the June Blog, Dithering Without Direction, where I ponder what is my life about, and come to the conclusion: my life and art are in service to Mother Earth. The entry on my screen was written the year I turned 90 and names with clarity my service to Mother Earth. And thus Mano has guided me to share one more journal entry this month, where I review and renew the clarity of what my life is about.

My way of getting clarity is to talk into the computer with what I call a Brain Drain. I call on my Council to guide me as I record what I know and feel about a particular subject. Then I just start writing as the thoughts flow into my mind. 

I have used this method to get clarity for 30 years. At first I wrote in paragraphs, then I learned if I wrote in an outline, it is easier to go back and check for accuracy, or to pick up a thread and take it in another direction. Now I have fine-tuned the process to a way that truly works for me. I found bullets are a better form of outlining and that is what I do today. The .db. mark is added every time I have a deep involuntary breath while writing. This is a signal from the Holy Spirit saying, “this is important, pay attention, you have just spoken truth.” 

I now share the journal Mano guided me to read, review, and remember in the middle of the night.

SERVING MOTHER EARTH  

February 2017

• I am in service to Mother Earth.
  • I met her in 1985 when I worked 5 days a week, 6 hours a day, for three months in the Findhorn Garden.
  • I didn’t recognize this connection until I left Findhorn and discovered each time I thought of the garden, each time I told anyone I worked in the garden, I would start to cry. Not just wet eyes and sniffles, big cry, sobs—I was overcome with love.
  • At first I was confused then I realized that I met Mother Earth while daily working in the garden and she is pure love.
  • After returning home from that trip I created the ritual of sitting outside to watch Mother Earth wake up. Daily I watched the stars fade as the light came into the sky and the birds began to sing. One morning I heard the inner voice say, “Barbara, I do not need you in San Luis Obispo any longer, I need you on the Mountain.”
• A year earlier, before we left for our Year Vision Quest in Europe, we had purchased a small cabin in the Redwood Forest next to a property called the Amphitheater which we had purchased a year before.
  • I told Jim what I had heard and he was in total harmony.
  • We put our house up for sale that week.
  • We started transforming the little cabin into a cottage.
  • My experience of the cabin was that it was “cold and dark.”
  • We added two wood burning fireplaces, and skylights in each room.
• I now live in a charming little cottage in the heart of a Redwood Forest.
  • Jim and I had just turned 60 when we made the move.
  • I met Mano the first day living on the Mountain.
  • Now, I interact daily with the Spirits of the Land.
  • To return to the Divine Plan where Spirit Beings and Human Beings once related and cooperated in Service to Mother Earth and all of her children.
• The Service is to say ‘Hello,’ send love, respect, and appreciation. 
  • To recognize the living being within the physical form of a redwood tree.
  • To recognize the elemental within the element of earth, air, fire, and water.
• The Request, The Plan is clear and simple.
  •  Doing it. Giving it Priority is not so easy.
  • There is a huge challenge to overcome the human habit of separation and isolation, suspicion, criticism, judgment.
• This relationship with the Spirits of the Land, needs to take priority in my life.
  • Not many people are doing it.

It is now 2 am and I will attempt again to go back to sleep after writing a few thoughts floating through my mind.

---

• My Earth Spirit Teachers, Mano and Rama, can only give me little pieces of information at a time: 
  • First, I have to integrate and embody the last understanding given.
  • I need to be open to the new, the mystery, magic; enchantment always present and possible with this interaction.
  • Insight, inner sight, intuition, imagination lead the way.

• They tell me: Look through your heart, rather than your head.
  • Interact through your heart and body, rather than your mind and mental judgments.
  • Look inside to see where my energy is being held.

• Mother Earth is your body and body wisdom
  • Human is intellect and mental reasoning.
  • It is not either/or, it is both.   .db. 
  • The body, earth wisdom, got lost in The Separation, The Fall from Grace.

• Millions of years ago when Gaia, Mother Earth, was ready, she invited a fifth dimensional, non-physical Creator Race to come to her planet to learn how to create in the third dimension.
  • Angels and elementals volunteered to help them create physical bodies and learn how to create everything needed to live in the third dimensional, physical world. They were in constant contact with their higher selves who were still living in the fifth dimension watching and guiding from their spiritual home.
  • The exchange was to be when they gained mastery working in the physical dimension, they would return to their fifth dimensional home and lift Gaia, Mother Earth, and all of the kingdoms into the spiritual dimension of life with them.

• This would be called The Golden Age.
  • When Gaia, Mother Earth, and all of her kingdoms would be lifted up to become part of the spiritual fifth dimension.

• At some point a devastating choice was made called The Fall from Grace.
  • The creator race felt they would gain true mastery of the third dimension if they did it on their own without the constant guidance from their I AM PRESENCE.
  • Separating from their spiritual selves changed everything. Selfishness, greed, competition, and killings happened. Their hearts hurt and many disconnected from their innate loving kindness.

• Over Millions of years six tries have been attempted and failed to lift the people of earth from the third dimension of duality, struggle, selfishness, greed, and conflict to the fifth dimension of unity, peace and harmony.
  • Another try was started on December 22, 2012 when we entered the seventh Golden Age.
  • This involves my dedication to work with Mother Earth’s angels and elementals to interact daily with the Spirits of the Land.
  • Each person has their own call and personal way of working to support Mother Earth..
