Is it Faithless to Prepare?
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010Mind Experiences
Saturday, January 16th, 2010Q. I have also wondered why Almine at times receives assignments from the Infinite for herself and for us and then does hers outside of the class instead of with us?
A. Almine: It is the case in classes that students come to eliminate mind; it literally feels like one is losing one’s mind. To receive the information, I become like an open door which pushes the class very fast. It is my way of pacing a class if it becomes necessary. I can see when students start to ‘spin out of control’ – then I interact more sparingly. It depends on the depth of the information, the intensity of receiving it and what physical changes they undergo by proxy as they become cosmic pivot points for change.
Rogier: Almine is like a portal into eternity. Few can look into eternity for long without going into some form of madness. If we who work with her are around her too much, our minds ‘bend’ and we can’t function. It affects all of us in different ways but it feels like a runaway roller coaster – one hangs on for all you’re worth because you lose all control.
Paul: Almine’s like a vortex – people spin out around her, becoming irrational and out of control. Minds bend in the presence of a great light. I use a large obsidian sphere to help center me when I record her voice.
The Stress of Public Workshops – a Reply
Thursday, January 14th, 2010(Almine requested a re-post of this entry as she felt that her words could not be properly understood without seeing them in context as a response to a question from a student.)
Q. I attended a class with Almine last year. I have read all of her books and listened to many radio shows; resonating with Almine’s wisdom. I found the people friendly and welcoming but felt disappointed that Almine didn’t seem ‘present’ in class, didn’t connect personally with each of us and spent very little time with us over the 3 days of class. Can you please exlain?
A. I want to tell you something that I seldom discuss; the stress on me to give a public workshop is almost more than I can bear. Consider what it would be like if you were having to undergo the following:
- Stand on your feet for 6 hours a day, for three or five or days, teaching that which you have never heard before.
- Because you need to access the unknowable your psychic abilities have to be so wide open that you not only hear the thoughts of everyone in class, but every creature who has congregated around the epi-center of this great work – namely in and around the building where class is being held.
- Because your class is exposed to such high-level information all of them become like oracles during the class, bringing in every conceivable transmission that they can for you to solve, adding to a pace that is already taxing you to the utmost. You have to organize and give them answers for these experiences so that they can see the validity of what is new and bewildering to them in many cases.
- The information received directly from the Infinite during the morning needs to be put into something understandable after class returns from morning break (the same for lunch and the next break - meaning you have no break at all.) This is crucial because if you do not give meaning to the seemingly disjointed informational pieces that come in, the class cannot keep up with the cutting edge experience with working directly with the Source of Life.
- After class until approximately midnight I have to organize the day’s material and obtain at least the end of a thread to begin the next day. Consider that we are working with information that lies beyond the vastness of the cosmos and that I have never heard before in most instances. Furthermore, though the Infinite speaks to me directly, we are expected in the physical to piece these pieces together.
- Imagine trying to relate to the members of your class and making sure that you listen to them from the heart while also keeping the other ear open for the Infinite’s voice making changes in the cosmos that would provide answers or vastly affect your class and the work that they are doing (not to mention the angels who are trying to give us their two cents worth.)
Some classes are more taxing on participants and myself than others, depending on the amount of opposition that we receive, the vastness of the concepts that present themselves and the changes that we must undergo as proxy for the cosmos. It is not easy to lose identity in the midst of keeping full awareness for participants – its a ‘crash graduation’ into mastery.
My Love,
Almine
The Sage
Sunday, January 3rd, 2010Q. I tried to get onto your online course and I couldn’t manage. It must mean I am not meant to take it, don’t you agree?
A. If I had to walk 100 miles to obtain this breath-taking information, I would. Is it any less valuable to me because it doesn’t lie around the corner?
There once was a sage sitting on the bank of a river. A devotee approached and asked to be taught. There was no reply, so he went away, only to return a few months later. Again he asked. This time the sage grabbed him and plunged his head under the river’s water until he struggled for breath. When the sage finally released him he said; “When you want to learn as much as you wanted to breathe, you will be ready to be taught.”
Abundant Business
Friday, January 1st, 2010Q. Why is the business that promotes your work not solvent and prosperous, if you’ve been living the principles of abundance during the past years?
A. There are three parts to the answer:
- The business is completely solvent as am I. My house, car – everything – is paid for. Living one’s life with debt is energetically a very unsound concept.
- The business has been the vehicle through which the most amazing gifts to humanity have been disseminated worldwide. It had to maintain its solvency and bear the cost of producing the books, online institutes, etc. to disperse information that is mankind’s heritage.
- Prosperity cannot be measured by dollars in the bank, but rather by the abundant expression of effectively interpreting the Infinite’s purpose. In this way, the business is very abundant – it has managed to expand the dissemination of the mystical and empowering tools of man in spite of 2 years of recession.
The Illusion of Death
Sunday, December 27th, 2009Q. What can you tell us about death?
A. Whenever anything is defined by its opposite, it is an illusion. Death, as well as life, are therefore illusions – what can be separated is not real. Beyond it lies a beginningless and eternal existence, when we dwell in oneness with the Infinite; when we know with all our heart that there is only One Being in existence.
