The Fool On the Hill / The Beatles / McCartney

Whew! This has been a week of changes. Changes all the way around. Someone just on the other side of the veil, he sits the man with a thousand voices and a foolish grin knowing he has the answers to the Universe, and most certainly, the answers that we seek. Who’s listening? I am. Others are hearing the restless wind flowing through the letter boxes of what we call life on Earth. He’s talking, John Lennon is. Still talking. Still making the stand and providing the solutions to the problems that we have happening in a big and large way.

I must say that just when I think or try to direct the direction of this LennonTask, something changes. Ever changing and ever evolving this is something that is much beyond me as an individual and was never designed to be for just me. I know that…silly me! Why change what is working when the reason for the season is quickly becoming apparent and seen.

Where to start? Of course, I know that as well, at the beginning. For is that not where all good stories begin, and good books, too? All good stories have their mysteries and plots and schemes. All lives lead are soap operas with entrance and exits of characters along the way. Look overheard, and bear with me here. Look at the drama, the stage, the play we call life on Earth – 2001 Edition. Ah…what have we here? Headline stories of earthquake disasters in fine and fair cities, third world nations, and a huge loss of life in the ancient land of the mystics where the Earth groaned and rebelled and opened her mouth wide to succumb to those tired of the scene and who chose to leave it now. A little girl frozen to death in a city of the Great White North, yet whose doctors are awed and find hope the very apparent belief that "sometimes it takes something beyond just the personnel and the equipment" to bring forth a miracle. A email just this morning, no two, speak of the craziness a world gone mad on the helter skelter rollercoaster where wrong becomes the norm and right becomes a miracle in a toddler’s beating little heart in Edmonton. Last week, in Volume 6, it was brought up that for every disaster and every wrongdoing we have the obligation…no, we have the privilege to balance that deed. We are not alone on the hill. We are not in this and cast away by all that is light and good and loving. No…we can choose to play victims to the tragedy or we can make another choice. For we have been God given that gift of Free Will. So instead of giving into the doom and gloom…see the light. Hear the music. Feel the hum. Know that you yourself…yes, one person….for does it not have to start with just one? One is a lonely number. One is the only number for a new beginning. With one comes one more, and then another. Pretty soon, we can make this world a better place. Why? Because we have a will that is free. We can balance the violence and the heartbreak and the just awful heartache that the world will face…for yes, the world herself will face changes. Are you surprised? Have we not been given clues and heads up?

Based on the concept, and concepts are our reality for we can make whatever into our reality and that’s the beauty of this whole thing here. We have the ability as a race…one human race, to become that which we choose. Can we make everyone cookie cutter copies? No, why would we even want to. Now back to the reality of the concept and in the light of Divine Dichotomy to the max, the Universe is based upon light, color and sound. If the real world holds pain and grief, Mean Mr. Mustard seeds and lonely Eleanors, then we can change that. By reaching out in song, by helping others to see the light, and playing the music louder so that all can wake up from the sleep and look at the show from the vantage point of a director, not an actor. We can be in charge of our own realities and that does not include the option of sitting on the sidelines for now…in this time, this critical time of human mass consciousness there are sides to take. Offers to stay in this drama and accept the atrocities which we cannot seemingly control, or to see it all from a higher reality where we can attempt, yes….attempt to change things.

"Well you can radiate ev’rything you are.

Yes, you can radiate ev’rything you are – ooh!"

Dig A Pony / The Beatles / Lennon

I don’t get it personally. I was raised in organized religion. I knew that the world was due for and prophesied ill things. "Good things" were going to happen, but was taught that "bad things" had to happen first. Now we have predictions and we have seen and heard all of the voices of the ages in Holy Books and psychic times that give forth hell on Earth. Maybe it could have become that way, but from what vantage point I have been brought to…the one that started questioning things where of no surprise answers came forth…we can either buy into the fright or attempt to make the world around us balance with love, care and compassion. We can either go down for the count feeling why, oh why…or we can pull together and see that all happens for reason. Lacking compassion there….no, indeed we are not alone and we do not have to sit by and watch. We can reach out and help. We can open our mouths and spread our truths. For who knows, the truth that has been found by one may indeed be a portion of the bit that the world needs to hear to get us through these changes and these times. Is the world going to end? In a way…yes, things will change. Change is always scary. We can reach out and touch our brethren or we can lock our hearts away in fear feeling victimized and lonely.

We can be taught that there is a higher way, and that the Masters have come to Earth…died for us, bled for us, cried out to us, and indeed…spoken words that grip our very soul. We can epitomize a cottony soft Heaven in the clouds and create Hell on Earth. We can know that there is a better way, we can know that beings of light are there and that souls live on and on. We can know it, but why can we not conceptualize it? Why do we find it so hard to believe that Jesus still lives, that Angels are guarding us, the Buddha and other Masters have paved the way….and get this, they all say the same things, yet we still live shaking and quivering that we are all alone. We are not alone. We are being helped and guided and assisted…just like that little frozen girl in Edmonton, Alberta by something we cannot see which is there and helping. We have faith and we have been taught in church that they are there, that souls live on, that angels are watching and God loves us. Yet we can walk away from that and doubt the very reason that they are just on the other side of a veil unseen. Bring that realism into reality first and foremost. Heaven is on Earth and so is Hell. We can pick which side to be on. No more in the Middle and on the sidelines. We can make this world, or we can break it. We can live in fear and doomish gloom, we can snipe and jibe or we can open our eyes. See the light, change without fear and find acceptance in diversity. We are waiting for the big hit to come from the sky to grab us and make the world a better place, when it is all so simple, the world starts from within. That is where the connection is. Within. That is where the light exists and the soul peace radiates.

"Boy – you’re gonna carry that weight,

carry that weight a long time.

I never give you my pillow, only give you my invitations,

And in the middle of the celebrations I break down."

Carry That Weight / The Beatles / McCartney

If Hell exists in murder, rape, and natural disasters…then Heaven exists within. My advise….choose to find your own Heaven within. It’s there. Yet to find it there is a process, I have come to know. A organic process so to say. Free yourself of your own chains and be brave enough to face yourself. Judge yourself and keep judgment from others. See that all of the turmoil on the outside, all of the natural and so vividly un-natural horridities are literally forcing you to face your own soul and your own hidden agendas made and accumulated over lifetimes, yes…lifetimes for let’s get real here and think back to Sunday School. If a soul lives forever, then how can we deny that a person was a soul living and then dying, and that soul exists and lives on and on. That very same soul, which is living forever right, can choose to come back to Earth, this reality over and over and over again. Why? Why you say would a soul want to do that? Simple. To experience. Bring that which you have learned in your church and that which you have learned in school to reality. Take it out of context for the concepts have been boxed up and placed in a neat and tidy. Take the words learned and the hymns sung and really think about what they have said. I mean…really think about what the words and the prophecies said. They were real concepts said by religious leaders from the beginning of time. Nothing has changed for we keep hearing the same in our songs, and seeing them in our miracles, and knowing them in our hearts. Does it take a Master to tell you what you already know? Does it take a natural disaster to tell you that if a soul lives on, as every religion on Earth states, then why would leaving this plane of existence mean that the soul did not choose to leave? Consciously…no certainly not. But the mind is ego and ego will be the first to fight and the first to deny the existence of anything beyond this reality. We could have miracle upon miracle come forth and still find reason to live the lies, and what’s worse accept the atrocities that life is rendering.

In this past week I have gotten the message. Not from beyond, for that’s not even beyond for me any more. It’s reality for myself and just that close. As close as you and I are now…not on the web, nor in the computer but in a tangible way and a theory. A very "religious" woman cried to me today. Cried for her elderly mother who passed away a year ago. Her words were that she mourned still the loss and touch of her mother, and grieved for she would never see her again. I knew that there were words to say, and a lesson to offer. I did nothing. I could not infringe on her grief. Yet I know fully well that this loving daughter’s mother is as close to her as ever before on Earth. That her mother feels still her tears and yet this woman cannot accept how easy it is to reach out and feel and know the love of her mother again. I froze for I worried more that I would be shunned and disbelieved instead of offering the reality as it is. Every time we mourn or think of one whom we cannot see for they have left this reality, they are drawn to us like a magnet. Just the way that it is. A soul out of body can be in many places at a time. They can be there to help, to guide and to hold dear and be near. We can accept it from our God, we can accept it from our Lord, and our Masters….but why do we immediately go into some sort of boxed up eyes closed misunderstanding not seeing that every soul exists forever and everyone of those souls is near.

You have heard the phrase, "Let go and let God". I would say that is the concept by which we cause our pain, for we try too much to put all into a tidy little perfectly visible and tangible container that we dub as, life. We hear the words and know the world, but forget to let go of the control that the mind brings. Control is a form of fear. If we try to control, we are not letting go and certainly not letting that which is higher and better in each of us take course and then take action.

Let’s face it, the big box office hits at the theaters are the scary thrillers where the other side of this veil between realities, or dimensions, or whatever you call it are shown as ghosts and hauntings and the purveyors of fright. I tell you, I am one woman and have been given a calling. My calling and my quest have come from John Lennon and his White Light Buddies on the other side of that veil. I am not the only one feeling it, nor hearing it, nor seeing it. There are others and then there are more. They are good people. They have experienced the things that we call weird, or scary and then realized…hey, this is a good thing. This is a positive thing. I am not alone. Yeay! There is reason for the season, and the reason is the time is here. It is all around. People are coming to believe the messages they are receiving to the questions they ask. Television shows are showing miracles and angelic interventions next to the all to real scenes of violence and hatred. Instead of seeing only the bad next time, see the good. Just try to live from a different perspective. Rise above the fear that we are defenseless, and listen with inner ear to the positive promptings of your soul. Next time you hear of a bad event, one that makes you cry out for the death and destruction, do something different. Change the way you react. Make a promise to yourself to go out and be kind to a stranger. Help a child or homeless person. Be kind to the Earth or volunteer your time. Balance that weight that we carry. We don’t have to accept the ills and the disasters; we can see an animal in pain and realize they too have a soul. We can show others, not tell them, but show them that there is still love and peace out there. We can realize that living in doom and gloom will force us to choose a side of just that reality. We can make this world or we can break it. Money can’t buy us love, rainbows and fairy tales cannot take away pain, and the thing is….it is not supposed to.

Plain and simple, we are at a changing time in the course of world history. It is a known fact. We cannot escape the reality that things will change, but then again…is it not true always that for something to change, change has to come? How can we create a better world if we accept and react only to the negativities that are offered? Many go to church on Sunday, or remember Good Book Sunday School teachings yet still walk out of the door or grow up facing the bad stuff as real, and the good stuff as only concept. I simply do not get it!

On that note, a gifted friend of another Lennon Connect this week gave an observation that almost floored me, but I realized more of maybe the explanation that was required as compared to feeling the hurt of the comment. When the Southern California Lennon Connect approached this lady with a copy of the volumes, the psychic mentioned that how could I be working with John Lennon when I quote his lyrics. I feel it is necessary to clarify how this LennonTask thing works for me. I hear, and have for about 5 years, songs in my head. Words and thoughts up from the inside to the conscious. Yeah, songs! Remember that the Universe is built on light, color and yes…sound. Tunes and tones that are guidance and sort of cosmic. I always get a bit wound up when I know it’s time to write the weekly volume. Always a tad worried that there is nothing to say. In all honesty and for a day or so before I write the volume, I get leads on songs and lyrics, all of them from Lennon or The Beatles guiding me toward the flow and direction. Now come on…..think of this in a higher way, and lose incredulous thought. Open your mind and see something new and different, and real….yes, real! Put this into reality and begin by getting off the denial merry go round.

Fact. The Beatles came forth with lyrics and songs, tunes and tones, back quite a few years ago. Fact. They were the greatest band of all time. That is well and fine. For what reason have they transcended the ages, it is due to the fact that they were hooking up to a higher consciousness. In some ways drug induced, but by the admission of Lennon (see Volume 6) he would just tap into thoughts and not really know why or where or how they were heading. And…it stuck and they grew to greatness by our standards. The very cool thing about this LennonTask, and what it is doing for the world, or better the test that it offers the world is the fact that one woman…an unknown, a mother and grandmother….me, tapped into the same. That John Lennon hooks up with me is not perchance, it is a soul connection yet still speaks of Universal Consciousness. He brings Universal Consciousness to me at that level. The very same that the Masters have brought forth. The absolute same that the songwriters, the poets, the theologians, and the clerics…the same All That Is. The Beatles have survived as a group in popularity for the simple reason that through all of the hype, the trips and the trip ups, they latched onto something that speaks to the soul. The souls are the masses. They were not perfect. I am not perfect. The others who bring this forth are not perfect, nor are we meant to be. John Lennon was a guy that lived and wrote from the pain he felt within. From a broken home and from his self-made disasters which made him life live his life hard and fast. He found love in a woman from a different culture, and blended East and West. He grew as a man, and started to teach that which he had found via tapping into that higher reality. He taught it and then took the last 5 years of his life to go within and heal some wounds…personal ones. To be a father, a househusband, and finally to live the good life and life good. Then…he was killed. Why? I get that from people all of the time in emails. Why was he taken from the Earth just when he was ready to bring forth some real peace, some real change? The thing is, the reality is….he brought forth at the time via song and lyric and bed ins and in life all that the world could handle at the time. In other words, it was not TIME for the LennonTask! Sounds silly and funny. How could the LennonTask not be ready when Lennon was alive? The world was not in the place it is now. The time was not right. He was not too soon, for he did like others what he was meant to do at the time for the time. They changed a generation, and then….it was time to go. To leave, and believe me…he was not ready to leave and mourned his death and life lost for years on the other side. As souls do, John Lennon realized the greater picture and reality and destiny of his soul as a Master and leader on Earth. He is picking up here, John Lennon is, in his mission upon Earth where he left off. As a Messenger, he is reaching out still to carry forth his Task. My job, responsibility or calling is to bring this out. One woman reaching out and bringing forth a message. I think it would be much easier to have been a celebrity, a religious, or even a political….but, it is mine to do and give. I use his lyrics, plain and simple, for his lyrics of days gone by reflect this LennonTask in and for the now. Really read the lyrics and hear the tune in your head. You have heard them a thousand times and hum the tune right now. Now…..READ the lyric. Hear the message. Read the words that follow and then feel the difference. For that is the first step in bringing out change. Accepting something that you cannot see, something you cannot touch…something that sounds right and then have the faith that it is. You have just then started the process of breaking through a barrier and you have come to greater reality. That quickly…you have changed your world. The lyrics of The Beatles and John Lennon were not meant to mean something huge back then, they were meant to bring about huge change in the now. Plain and simple. Pretty much, the same as every Good Book and every Master before. For, John Lennon, was a Master walking on Earth. That’s reality.

"That is you can’t you know tune in.

But it’s all right. That is I think it’s not too bad."
