  • Visualization Of GOD Michael/The Infinite Creator/Amitabha📌

    Everyone has their own understanding of GOD Michael/The Infinite Creator/Amitabha, some may like to use bright light, golden light, infinite light/sun, or white light to visualize him, many like to have an image of GOD Michael/The Infinite Creator/Amitabha. I recently asked Jesus and Shakyamuni Buddha how they visualized GOD Michael. 

    Jesus sent me an image of GOD Michael that had the same posture in the picture 1 below with a golden aura, and a bit more fuller face. I only got an impression of the face but didn’t have much facial detail. (I found the picture 1 below online that’s most similar to what I saw in my meditation .) The look is a little more similar to the picture 2 and 3 too and with a more mature face. 

    Picture 1: The posture is exactly same as below without the picture frame and those golden vases on the ground:

    Picture 2: My impression about the face is more similar to below and a bit more mature.

    \"\"

    Picture 3: My impression about the face is more similar to below and a bit more mature.

    \"\"

    Shakyamuni Buddha sent me an image of Amitabha/Michael’s image in meditation with a golden aura, which is similar to the one in Yungang Grottoes with a slimmer, a more mix of oval shape face, and more westerner face with a golden aura around the head. (The facial expression is very similar to what I saw; the ear is in normal size. Similar to the symbolic wings in above picture, the big ear in the below picture is symbolic. In eastern world, it means an eternal/long life. )

    \"\"

    I asked and GOD Michael commented that since he became what we called a light being* more than a billion years ago and didn\’t have a body anymore (beings above very late 5th density don’t have a body anymore), you could visualize him the way you find most comfortable with.

  • GOD Michael Commented That Meditation Teaching Was Removed From The Original Christianity Teaching By That Evil Snake Satan📌

    GOD Michael commented that meditation was important in the original Christianity teaching but the teaching was removed completely by that evil snake Satan. Similar to Buddhism, meditation needed to be a basic work for spiritual pursuit and it would be good for us to add it back. (GOD Michael also commented that Christianity is the teaching of love, which is a foundation and main lesson for the 3rd and 4th density that precedes the lesson of wisdom. Buddhists can add some more love lessons from Christianity. )

    Meditation to our mind is like running to our body. It’s easy to learn (following some introduction videos you are good to go) and the important thing is to keep it as a habit to do it regularly. 

    Prayer is different from meditation. Prayer is sending out our wishes or calls or focus thoughts, and is great to precede before meditation. Meditation helps to clear and quiet down your conscious mind, which is critical to reconnect your conscious mind to your subconscious mind for your spiritual development that’s essential for higher density. Also, meditation allows for the release of tension, increases energy flow, and positively influences the body\’s energetic system.  It is an essential tool to increase one’s vibration to be eligible for the 4th density upgrade. 

    Jesus spent many years when he was young in eastern countries to learn mediation and Buddhism spiritual teaching. Jesus himself practiced meditation daily.

  • The Whole Universe Is Celebrating Humans Crossing The Line Graduating To The 4th Density – A Completion Of A Big Cycle And The Beginning Of A New Era For Humans📌☀️🎉

    In the morning of Aug 28, Shakyamuni Buddha sent me a vision of lots of all kinds of birds, big and small, dancing, flying up and down in the sky, and celebrating. I noticed there was a white egret among them. There was a line in the mid bottom part of the vision. When I looked around to the Sun, the sun was like a person’s face, literally having a big smile, similar to the smiling sun in the emoji. Obviously, they were celebrating an event of crossing a line. 

    Later, Shakyamuni Buddha confirmed that he sent me this vision and that beings in the whole universe were very happy for us and celebrating humans crossing the line graduating to the 4th density. (They are very happy that our souls are safe.)

    On the same day, I saw 7 young “harbingers” (American Robins) forming a circle in the rain. Obviously they meant that we had completed this cycle despite a difficult situation. 

    See below video: Seven young \”Harbinger\” (American Robins)forming a circle in the rain – we had completed this cycle.

    An air show was on during my walk on Aug 30:

    A Side Note: During my walk on Aug 28, I also saw thousands of bees working around a tree that’s not a flower tree. Two days ago, I saw the same scene but didn’t figure out the meaning.  Yesterday, I saw lots of bees surrounding and working on a new blue vehicle. Surprised by the scene as it’s my third time this week to see that many bees and I had never seen such a scene like this till recent days. Later I asked and GOD Michael confirmed that lots of beings/angels in the universe currently were helping and working on humans\’ graduation. (Tree refers to human soul and vehicle refers to human body/DNA. ) They had started the major work on upgrading human souls and bodies. (According to our Guardians, in the past decades a very small number of upgrade had been on-going for some time mainly for testing. )

  • With The Sharing Of Information About This Website, The Population On The Positive Path Will For Sure Continue To Increase📌 – A Side Note About The 25% on “No Path” Or Negative Path

    Considering the information of this website has only reached a small portion of our population for about 8 months, the percentage of about 25% on “No Path” and the Negative Path is much better than I expected. Before sharing information on this website, we had more than 35% wouldn’t be able to graduate to the 4th density positive. Most likely, those more than 10% people who made it to the positive in a short time were very close to positive but lacked the Creator/GOD concept to commit to be positive to make themselves available to be harvestable. (People may need to work harder, otherwise it could fall back to the neutral zone. )

    Among the 8.1 Billion of the world population, there are about 2.2 billion children under the age of 12 who wouldn’t understand much yet. (They have their scores from previous lifetimes) About 2-3 billion of the population live in poor situations, such as some areas of Asia and Africa, are busy surviving and they are slow to hear about this website. Some countries, such as China, didn’t have a concept of a Creator for some time, they will need a little more time to catch up. We can work especially in these areas to get a better result. Considering all these, we have achieved good progress in the number of people on the positive path so far. 

    With some more years to come as the information gets to more people and people work hard on \”Service-to-Others\”, the population on the positive path to be graduated will for sure continue to increase.

  • What Does The Beginning Of The Major 4th Density Upgrade On Humans Mean To Us?📌

    I asked some questions around further meaning of the beginning of the major 4th density upgrade on humans besides our bodies being saved. GOD Michael confirmed that this would be the last life time for all souls on Earth before the 4th density upgrade. (Unfortunately, we lost the 3rd density Earth due to Satan’s attacks. The only lucky thing is, with GOD Michael and our Guardians Ra and Latwii’s help, I survived the EOE and Satan’s attacks so far and got to tell the truth to other humans. Also, we can continue to finish this lifetime only because GOD Michael and our Guardians are willing to provide their precious energy to save us. )

    After one dies naturally, one’s soul will go through the process of either being upgraded to a 4th density positive soul or moved to another 3rd density planet, or a 4th density negative planet depending on one’s polarity. 

    If one belongs to 4th density positive(51% service-to-others), your soul will be upgraded and incarnate again on the current Earth environment. You will also have an upgraded (4th density) body with new capabilities. The Earth environment would be the same in the early 4th density. It’s like when we were upgraded from 2nd to 3rd density. In the early stage, we were 3rd density souls in an ape body, which didn’t have much difference than an animal. As time went by, the 3rd density humans became much more advanced than 2nd density animals, so will it be the 4th density humans to the 3rd density beings, both in consciousness and in what we called the “civilization”. 

    For the majority of people on Earth, your soul being upgraded is a great news. It reduces the risk and uncertainty in the harvest. Beside Satan’s attacks to destroy us, many negative beings, such as those in the Orion group in the universe want to keep us in 3rd density permanently and enslave us. Also it’s a long term solution for protecting the human race as we need to be energy independent, develop faster and better, especially Satan desperately wants to completely destroy human souls. Furthermore, if we had transparent field protection, things would be much easier for us. 

    For a smaller portion of the population ( > 25%, majority of them are in a neutral zoom ) who have “no path” or on a negative path(99% of time service-to-self), you need to move on to other planets. Unfortunately, Satan has destroyed your opportunity to incarnate back to the positive 4th density Earth and shortened your possible number of lifetimes on Earth. You still have this lifetime to get a better score and many may still have time to get to 4th density positive. The key thing is to share this website information with wider population and let people have a chance to choose a path and work for increasing their positivity.

    Overall, fighting against EOE, protecting human souls/me, continuing sharing information and joining in prayer/mediation are urgent. All of these actions would be good for your positive score, fighting against Satan’s current attacks and the human race survival.

  • The Importance Of Meditation For Your Own Growth And The Healing Of Mother Earth/Gaia📌

    Sharing a Q’uo (Our guardians) Sep 15, 2018 channeling script, which shows how important meditation is to our own growth and the healing of mother Earth/Gaia. 

    Sep 15, 2018 Quo Channeling Script

    Fox: Q’uo, Dewey Larson, the engineer and theoretician whom Don and Ra had discussed, wrote that one purpose of sleep is that it (Q\’uo confirmed in below both sleep and meditation) rebalances the imbalance between space/time (the Physical world) and time/space (the Metaphysical* world) that occurs during the waking hours. Q’uo, would you please speak to that, and to whether meditation also helps with this balancing?

    Q\’uo: I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. Indeed, both the states of which you call sleep and the state of which you call meditation are means by which there is a balance achieved between that which is your conscious mind and that which is your unconscious mind, or your subconscious mind. For as you know well, these two portions of your unified mind are divided or separated by what you have called the “veil of forgetting.” This veil of forgetting provides you with the means by which your process of polarization may be enhanced as it requires that you constantly seek in a conscious fashion, that which seems hidden from you: that is, more of the unity, the love, and the light, of the One Creator.

    In your daily round of activities, as you consciously see and experience those events that populate your day and interact with those people that are a portion of your day, you are then able to begin processing the catalyst that they provide for you in the form of any movement in your being away from unconditional love. Thus, as you use your meditative state in any type of a balancing process to attempt to get a better grasp of the nature of the catalyst you have experienced, you are engaging in the polarization process. The effort that you make, the struggle that you must put forth, the attempt to untangle that which seems unknown or doubtful, is the essence of the spiritual journey, the attempt to make sense and to understand that which seems lacking in sense and understanding.

    Thus, as you engage in the process of sleep, you relax the conscious mind to the point that it is no longer the primary player within your being, but gives over this role to that portion that you call your unconscious mind, so that the catalyst which you have experienced becomes a tool, or a portion of an effort to give you images through your dreams that may further illuminate the experience that you have had in your conscious daily round of activities. Your meditative state offers you another means by which to approach the attempt to understand that which has come to you in your conscious experience, for in meditation you can use the ability to focus more clearly and concisely upon these catalytic events than is normally available to you in your conscious mind as it is busying itself with a multitude of thoughts and responses. These are more likely to fall away in both the sleeping state, especially, and in the meditative state according to the ability of the meditator.

    The meditative state also offers another opportunity to ask questions of your unconscious mind that perhaps an intuitional flash will bring to you as an illumination, or perhaps it will be an experience you will have later in your conscious experience of the day when the interesting coincidences or synchronicities may begin to appear within your waking experience that are a result of having asked for assistance in your meditative state from the unconscious mind. Thus you are able to utilize both your conscious and your unconscious mind in your seeking process if you are able to give those portions of your experience that are relegated to dreams and to meditation as much credence and value that you give those experiences of your conscious state.

    Is there a further query, my sister?

    Fox: Yes. Does our sleep and meditation also help Gaia’s balance of her physical and metaphysical aspects and perhaps help manifest fourth-density physical?

    Q\’uo: I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. This is an interesting query, in that the answer is both a yes and a perhaps. The yes is given to those entities who are able to use the meditative state in a more specific sense. That is, in the ability to create visualizations of various portions of Gaia that are in need of healing, and to see them with clarity for a number of what you would call your minutes. These visions, held in the conscious mind, then in the meditative state, may provide an ability for the forces of light to send to Gaia those imaged experiences of healing and wholeness that she so desperately needs. The perhaps is given to those entities who are able to utilize their catalyst in the sense by which we just spoke in the previous query, to enhance their own process of seeking so that they are able to open their hearts more and more in the love vibration, and this vibration is that which then adds its healing energy to that of Gaia and her needs, for as you grow, so does she grow. As more and more seek the love and the light of the One Creator within their own hearts and experiences, so then is further healing offered to your Mother Earth.

    Is there another query at this time?

    Fox: Just a short one. When you spoke of the visualizations of portions of Gaia, I’m assuming that includes the human population, and plant and animal populations that might be in a certain area, or were you speaking of just the physical planet—the first-density part of the planet?

    Q\’uo: I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. (Your assumption is correct.) When we spoke of the healing of the entity known as Gaia, we spoke of the healing that is offered by each conscious seeker to any portion of the Mother Earth that is visualized by the seeker in the meditative state. Thus, it is the seeker who directs the energy to those areas in need of healing.

    Is there another query at this time?

    Fox: I’m still unclear—so the portion of Gaia would include humans, and any part of the planet, Is that right? I guess I’m not making myself clear, I’m sorry.

    Q\’uo: I am Q’uo and am aware of your query.  (That’s right.) We shall attempt to be as clear as possible.The seeker who utilizes meditation and visualization determines the portion of Gaia that receives the healing vibration.

    Is there another query at this time?
    Fox: No, thank you, thank you so much Q’uo. 

    Q\’uo: We thank you, my sister.

    ……..

    Kyle: Yes, Q’uo, I have one further question. Is it possible for you to elaborate on how similar seekers can connect, contact, or communicate with each other to provide greater service to others in a community based or collaborative way?

    Q\’uo: I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. Indeed, those who have a similar way of seeking, who are of like mind, may indeed join forces with each other in a manner in which there is perhaps, as you have suggested, a formalized arrangement of living, a community that is based upon shared values. If such an arrangement can be agreed upon by such seekers of truth, then you may see the ability to serve as having the magical expression or expansion of that which those of Ra have called “the doubling,” so that each entity doubles the ability of each other entity to be of service to those who are the focus of such a community of seekers of truth. Thus those who wish to offer themselves in a selfless manner, and to blend their energies and ideals and inspirations with those who share such ideals that are able to be of a greater service, for there is an expansive or doubling quality to each seeker’s efforts.

  • All Small Birds Saved By GOD Michael Have Recovered To Their Original Numbers📌☀️

    During my Monday evening meditation, Shakyamuni Buddha sent me an image of a few small birds surrounding a plate that was hanging on a tree. These birds were drinking water or eating from the plate, each of them seemingly full. 

    Later GOD Michael confirmed that the number of all small birds like songbirds had fully recovered. I also clarified that the bigger birds hadn’t been back to full numbers yet only because they generally needed much longer time to have babies, especially many of them chose to be born again. 

    I deeply appreciated GOD Michael and our Guardians’ effort in saving them. Keeping the animals in a balanced number is very critical for the ecological system and our survival.

    During my walk in recent days, I was glad to find many more young songbirds than one or two weeks ago along my way. Besides that, many plants and flowers recovered and came back to my area too. From what I see from online videos, the situation in coral reefs has further improved, maybe about 15% better than a week ago. 

    GOD Michael confirmed that more than 10 times more energy had been provided to our planet and environment since Grandmother Gaia died to help us survive and fight against Satan’s attacks. 

    In the meantime, we can spread the info about the prayer and join the praying and meditation (Post here) united together to  help strengthen Mother Gaia to fight against Satan.

  • Mother Earth/Gaia Is The Mother Of All Life Upon The Planet Earth📌

    It’s important for us to know that Mother Earth is a being, a mother of all, who has a consciousness/awareness like humans. Any damages do to her, she felt the pain. Ancient Greek people had this knowledge already so they named Mother Earth as Gaia to personify her as a deity of mother of all. 

    Everything on Earth including land, water, fire, rocks, humans, plants and animals are a portion of her. We are like small cells in her. Somehow, we lost this knowledge through history and did lots of damage to Mother Earth’s body, either by destroying forests, polluting oceans, or air, overfishing, hunting or creating tons of waste etc, or by warring with each other to kill her other body cells. 

    Mother Earth and us are ONE. Our Environment and us are ONE.

    Therefore, we have the weekly/daily prayer/meditation for the healing of her in current situation under Satan\’s attack. it’s important to pass on this knowledge about her so that we can protect/heal her, so as to protect/heal ourselves.

    ——————

    Below Q’uo channeling scripts explain how Mother Earth/Gaia relates to all life upon the planet Earth and is the mother of all life. All negative changes on Earth’s environment will harm Mother Earth/Gaia badly. 

    Mar 04, 2017 Q’uo(our Guardians are main members) channeling

    Austin: Here’s a question from D. “Does our Planet Earth have a preferred name, are we allowed to know it, does this question make any sense?”

    Q’uo: I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. Those of us of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Infinite Creator refer to your planet as Terra*, as that which is the expression of the vibration of the Earth’s third-density experience, which now moves into the fourth density. Many, also within your Earth’s sphere, call the Earth Gaia, because it is the mother of all life upon the planet. Is there a further query, my brother?

    Austin: Not in relation to that one, Q’uo.

    F: Is that what Gaia would call herself? Does Gaia as an entity, have a name for itself?

    Q’uo: I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. We look upon the entity that is your Earth planet, and do not perceive that it has a name for itself, for it is that which is the mother, it would call itself, more or less, That Which Nurtures. Many entities in the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Infinite Creator do not engage in the naming which is so popular among your peoples, but see themselves, rather, as vibratory levels of experience that have certain abilities and desires to be of service, and offer them according to a unique vibrational quality of, you may say, desire expressed, desire manifesting. This is the case with the planet of your present origin.

    Oct 6, 2018 Q’uo channeling

    Austin: Yes, Q’uo. It’s my understanding that as the social memory complex forms, the planet itself becomes a part of that social memory complex, and isn’t just a host for it, but is an actual integral aspect of the social memory complex. Is this correct? And if so, could you talk about that relationship with the social memory complex and the planet?

    Q’uo: I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. Again, this is a most interesting query. We hope that we may do justice to it.

    (I asked and our guardians commented that Austin’s understanding was correct. Note: I am a candidate and it will take a very long time to form a formal Social Memory Complex. ) 

    Your planetary sphere has, itself, moved through the same densities of this illusion of creation, as have each of you, beginning within the first density; moving then from that which is simple awareness of earth, wind, fire, and water, moving into the second density, where there is a consciousness that expresses itself as it moves towards the light, that being the second-density beings of the plants and the animals who are able to experience growth and movement in the beginning of self-conscious awareness; which is that quality which allows each second-density being to move within the third-density realm, to become that which is the completed entity—the mind, the body, and the spirit, being added in such a fashion to create a human being, as you might call them.

    Your Mother Earth has been central in this process of growth through the first three densities, and shall continue to be central in this movement into the fourth density of love and understanding. Thus, the process of experiencing that which is known as the consciousness of self is that which is added by the planet itself, for the planet has, within it, the conscious awareness of each entity that has inhabited its own beingness.

    We must pause briefly.

    (The restless second-density feline companion expresses its beginning of self-conscious awareness by continuing to solicit pets from the instrument.)

    I am Q’uo and am again with this instrument. The planetary entity which you call your Gaia, or your Mother Earth, has, throughout limitless time, experienced its own consciousness and expressed it as the quality that you may see as pure awareness—the awareness of the One Creator that exists in all things at all times. This awareness within your Mother Earth has gone through the same stages of growth as has each entity within your third-density illusion, and as each entity which moves into the fourth density. The qualities of conscious awareness have an expanded meaning within your Mother Earth, for her awareness is not just the awareness of her own beingness and her own body that may be seen quite simply as a movement of matter within time and space, but is also an awareness of each form of life upon its surface, and within its beingness, as life exists at all levels of your Mother Earth.

    Thus, the interaction that she undertakes with you in conscious expansion of awareness is that which is a process of harmonizing its beingness with the upward spiraling line of light that moves each entity’s awareness through each level of consciousness, and each density of awareness. Thus, your Mother Earth moves with each of its total population of human beings and all beings of any nature, and indeed, within all things, be they rock, animal, or spiritual qualities of devotion, of seeking, of inspiration, of service to others and service to self.

    Thus, your Mother Earth has within her living bank of memory the experiences of all life forms that live upon her and within her, and she gives to each what you may call a very basic kind of inspiration that inspires at the cellular level, as well as all higher levels within each conscious being, and within all lower conscious and unconscious beings and substances. Thus, your Mother Earth moves in concert with its population, being one with each at a very basic level. Thus, all move together within this illusion to the next illusion of the fourth density of love and understanding.
