Author’s note: I originally posted this entry December 1, 2017. I believe it is as useful now as it was then. Please enjoy.
Remember that old saying? “The whole world has gone insane except you and me, and I am not too sure about you!” This quote seems equally relevant today as it did when it was first quipped! Of course, some of us are now even questioning our own craziness!
How, then, do we navigate our world, our reality in all the craziness? We need to allow and detach from what the outer world presents as “reality”. You ask: “How do we do that?” We do what the masters have done from time immemorial. We allow for full renunciation of the Third Dimensional world.
What exactly does renunciation of the 3D world look like?
I asked my guidance the same thing. My inner wisdom started by explaining to me what renunciation is not. The beliefs that renunciation means starkness in life, in food, in clothing, in behavior, in art, in music, and in science is not the renunciation that is required to fully allow and detach from the 3D world. As the Tibetan Lama Yeshe is quoted as saying, “Renunciation comes from within, it is inner wisdom, inner knowledge.” These aspects of “everyday life” like styles of clothing, food, and music are simply window dressing.
Remember what Kris Duffy taught us – “It’s not the what, It’s the why.” It is not what we eat so much as why we eat what we eat. If we are eating certain foods because they fulfil cravings or even addictions, then we might want to examine if we should cut down or eliminate that from our diet. If we are eating foods that fill us with joy and harmony because they raise our vibration, then eating these foods, as guided, is the highest plan for us. As we follow our guidance as to what the highest good is for us in food, drink, music, and technology, we will realize that full renunciation of the 3D world is more about eliminating the attachment to these aspects in the world, not the elimination of the actual manifestation or consumption in the world.
I read an anonymous quote that furthers this philosophy – “Renunciation is not about giving up the things of the world, it is accepting that they go away.” This idea implies that aspects of the physical world are only temporary. Our immortal nature – the essence of ourselves – rests in knowing ourselves as eternal beings not in the mirror that our outer reality shows us. The sooner we can realize that we create the mirror that we see, the sooner we can either change it to something we prefer or relax into the freedom that we have created.
This is how we renunciate the 3D world – through inner wisdom and inner guidance.
But what of the original quote regarding the whole world appearing insane? As we are on the path to full renunciation of the 3D world, we need to allow and detach from the appearance of the insanity of our current world. We do this with the outmost compassion and love for what we see in the outer world. The separation that we see between differing factions in all the different facets of our world – politics, economics, religions, races, sexes – boil down to each side wanting to hold onto their 3D power.
Peeling back the onion shows that under the need to maintain or gain power is fear. It doesn’t matter what form the fear of scarcity takes – abundance, power, love, resources – it is ultimately the fear and separation of not remembering our true divine nature. Don’t confuse this with what we have told ourselves is the true nature as humans or the true nature of animals. This is the true nature of ourselves as divine eternal aspects of the divine eternal source. Focusing on the divine eternal source of ourselves is the path to full renunciation of the 3D world.
However, not everyone sees the world in these terms. We can allow and detach from how others see the world and how that outer vision appears to affect us, but we want to do it with compassion and love for who they are and where they are on their own path. We want to also allow ourselves to be compassionate with ourselves when we might not allow and detach from our outer world reality as we might wish for ourselves. Be compassionate with ourselves when we judge ourselves or the outer world reality. Come back to focusing on our inner wisdom and our inner light.
Let us remember ourselves as that eternal essence of source energy and let the wonder continue.

Throughout the history of humans, we have many examples of unhealed Third Dimensional Authority. The examples are almost limitless. A few examples are wars between countries, enslavement of others, abuse of people physically smaller than us, abuse of others more emotionally and mentally fragile than others, or limiting others’ power, covertly or overtly. A few more examples would be limiting access to Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs: shelter, food, water, safety, stability, love, sense of belonging or sense of esteem. It doesn’t matter whether these limits are carried out by individuals, by institutions or by governments. They are examples of unhealed third dimensional authority.
As I was channeling this entry, I was reminded of the old joke about the Authoritarian Regime of Mussolini’s Italy. The old saying goes that “at least under Mussilini, the trains ran on time.” I was guided to look up that old saying. From two or three different sources, the general consensus is that that saying was part of Mussolini’s rhetoric or political slogan. That it isn’t really true. This is a reminder that we need to check with our guidance to determine the truth of anything we hear. We should not give our power away to 3D authority no matter the form it comes in.
When I started to work with healing these examples of 3D Authority and the energies underneath them, I realized that I also need to address that sometimes I think my multidimensional self is limiting my lower-self’s access to feeling sovereign and the multidimensional being is standing in a position of authority over me. At my level of evolution, I still need to check to see what the highest plan is. I still need to clear sometimes when I hear what the highest plan is but I don’t like it or maybe I am envious that someone else looks like they have a more interesting higher plan than I do. All of these are just issues that need to be cleared. Whether they are false beliefs, discordant emotions like self-pity or old patterns that I am stuck in.
In last month’s blog entry about The Adjustment Bureau movie, I discuss the movie plot where The Bureau Members intercede on the behalf of humans to help them stay on a plan that the Chairman of the Bureau determines is in the best interest of humanity. After the main characters try to get the plan changed and are successful, a Bureau member tells them that eventually the Bureau won’t write the plan for humans, humans will write the plan.
As we raise our vibration, we become more in harmony, cooperation, unity and oneness within ourselves and with what we understand will be the highest plan for all. We are helping to create the plan.
Let us set our intention to be in alignment with Fifth Dimensional Authority because at the highest levels we are already operating in Fifth Dimensional Authority. We can operate in Fifth Dimensional Authority for ourselves regardless of what level of authority is operating around us in the illusion. We no longer need to give our power away to the energy of third dimensional authority.

Recently, I watched the 2011 movie The Adjustment Bureau staring Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Anthony Mackie and Terence Stamp. Billed as a science fiction romantic thriller, the spiritual aspects of the movie are what intrigue me.
The premise is that we humans are at the effect of The Adjustment Bureau which is tasked with keeping us on track for the highest plan and to intervene or manipulate situations when the highest plan changes. The beings in the Adjustment Bureau are similar to guarding angels and the entity that is never actually called God or Source is the Chairman of the Board.
In the opening scene, we are introduced to Damon’s character, David Noriss, who is a Congressman from New York who runs for Senate. It is election night and he lost. He is getting ready to make his concession speech when he runs into the intriguing modern dancer, Elise Sellas, played by Blunt. They have an immediate connection and her devil-may-care attitude inspires David to improvise his speech in a way that is relatable to the electorate.
The Plan included this meeting and the inspiration but not a relationship. The Adjustment Bureau agents have a few missteps and have to intervene to not allow David and Elise to be together. The Adjustment Bureau has to reveal itself to David and, in a not very divine-feeling-way, Stamp’s character, Thompson, threatens David if he tries to contact Elise again. Thompson also shares with David that the reason The Bureau keeps such a close eye on The Plan and the manifestation of The Plan, is because humans messed it up so badly in the past that The Bureau had to step in to save the day.
A few years later, it is time for David to run for Senate again and he decides to reach out to Elise and to have a relationship with her regardless of The Plan. David’s main Adjustment Bureau agent, Harry Mitchell, played by Mackie, decides to help David find Elise under the radar screen of the Bureau.
Although the movie received mixed reviews, I enjoyed it. There are two take aways from the movie that I want to highlight today.
When David is asking Thompson why he and Elise can’t be together, why The Bureau cares, Thompson says that both David and Elise would be so happy with each other that they wouldn’t strive for more success and greatness. David would settle for not being a Senator and for not reaching for the presidency. For Elise, instead of becoming a world-famous dancer and choreographer, she would be happy to simply teach elementary school girls to dance.
Notwithstanding the possibility that the highest plan was for David to be in politics and for Elise to be world-famous dancer, it struck me as judgmental that bigger and better, in a third dimensional sense, would always be the highest plan. Why couldn’t teaching young girls to dance be the highest plan? Even more so, why is being happy and in a loving relationship not part of the highest plan? Is being miserable really the highest plan? Definitely something to ponder and ask what our mirrors might be regarding the highest plan and/or for clarity on issues to manifest the highest plan.
The second take away for me, of course, comes with the ending. As Harry is delivering the good news to the couple from the Chairman, he says, “Maybe one day we won’t write the plan, you will.” This is another great piece to take to our meditation chair. What false beliefs and patterns of behavior do we need to change in order for The Plan, The Highest Plan, to be not only something we strive to manifest but we are in such alignment with all of Creation and all of Source, that we are creating the plan as well as manifesting it? If this triggers any issues, just take it to the Chairman of Your Board and make the appropriate adjustments.

My favorite Indiana Jones movie is the third one in the franchise, Indian Jones and the Last Crusade. I think it is my favorite because of Sean Connery’s portrayal of Indy’s father, Professor Henry Jones. For me, Connery plays this character perfectly, so against type for his earlier role as James Bond. The interplay between Indiana, played by Harrison Ford, and Connery is wonderful. They have definitely set the hook for me for pure entertainment.
Recently, I remembered the scene where Indy, trying to locate the Holy Grail, the cup Jesus used for the last supper, has to take a leap of faith.
In the movie, Indy has his usual clues and the usual need to perform certain actions no matter what in order to be successful in his quest. The leap of faith test comes when he is looking at an entrance to a cavern across a wide chasm. The little voice in his head is telling him he needs to believe in order to take the leap of faith, but his eyes only see the chasm.
Without too much hesitation, Indy steps into the chasm only to find that the chasm is an illusion. Or at least there is a bridge over the chasm which is easy to see once the illusion of empty space is revealed.
Remembering this scene makes me wonder what illusions I am still holding onto because I trust my 3D senses more than I trust my inner knowingness. I am not sure I am yet trusting enough to step into the chasm of Indian Jones and the Last Crusade but maybe I am willing to trust my guidance more and more about what truly must be in my highest good even when the 3D illusion is implying that it isn’t.
I am adding “faith” and “leap of faith” to my resonances and asking to be open to knowing when it is time to take the leap of faith and when it is time to still be grounded in the five senses I am experiencing in this Illusion of the third dimensional world. We are at an interesting crossroad in human evolution. Some actions are still experienced in the illusion, but we can ask what we are to infer from the information regardless of what the illusion implies. The power still resides with us, not the illusion. The more we believe this, the more we will become comfortable with the leap of faith. And the more the leap of faith will simply be faith. No leaping required.

At this time of Breakdown for Breakthrough, many of us have fears and stress regarding how quickly the breakdown seems to be coming without much evidence of the breakthrough. We have been taught the concept of “As Within, So Without.” We need to be willing to breakdown the systems within ourselves in order to see the breakthrough within AND in our outer world. We need to be in Divine Allowing and Divine Detachment regarding how others are out picturing their own process of Breakdown for Breakthrough. It is not for us to judge how others are experiencing their particular transformation at this point in human existence. Our priority is to work with our own Sacred Change.
How do we breakdown the systems within ourselves without losing all ability to function in the 3D world? This is a really good question. As always, we follow guidance. The guidance we should be seeking is to help us determine the highest plan for the speed and depth with which we are willing to address old beliefs, old emotions, old behaviors, and the experiment in duality, without losing the ability to function in the world. Remember that the Christ teaches us to be in the world but not of it. We want to be able to function in the world for a few different reasons.
The first reason is that it is through navigating in this world that we realize the areas we still need to heal. We get our buttons pushed and this reveals an issue we still need to address. The second reason we want to be able to function in the world is because that is currently the physical experience we signed up for. We volunteered to be here for the specific reason that would serve our own evolution and to serve the evolution of our species, the whole planet and the entirety of creation. We all have a piece of the puzzle for all of creation. Your soul may have other information for your awareness regarding why you are still in the experiment of duality. We encourage you to dialog with your soul for any insights.
Asking for guidance for the speed at which to address these issues does not mean we ignore these beliefs, emotions and behaviors that need to change. It is a realization that our Souls know, and that our lower selves might need reminding, that pushing too hard is not the highest plan. Placing ourselves in spiritual crisis is not the highest plan.
However, sticking our heads in the sand with the unwillingness to be uncomfortable with the introspection is not the highest plan, either. Ignoring our issues for too long may lead us to need to take more drastic action steps or to leave us with lower frequency choices.
We suggest working with the resonances of Divine Balance, Divine Non-Judgment and Divine Detachment in order to navigate between the extremes of punishing ourselves or limiting our sensual experiences and over indulgence of the sensual experiences.
We really want to allow for the path of Sacred Change which leads to Ascension. Everyone’s path for Sacred Change is going to be different. However, having more love, more compassion and understanding for what we are all experiencing is a good start for our Sacred Change. Here is a beautiful song to help us remember that loving more is part of our sacred change.
“Let’s Love Louder (Sacred Change)” by Bliss Looper, Hannah Lou Woods
When you’re lost or feeling low
Don’t be scared, you’re not alone
I’m with you there in this space
Through this dusk time is never ending
Sacred change
You are never alone in this dusk
Time is never ending sacred change
Some things I can’t control
Sometimes I just don’t know
Seems like everywhere I go something’s starting
Guidance is on the way if I listen to what they say
Take a deep breath and stay open hearted
When nothing remains the same
And you look for someone to blame hold the space for the pain
When hearts get harder let’s love louder
When hearts get harder let’s love louder
Tears may fall on your face
Things may feel like they keep moving in and out of place
Your life may need to rearrange
I’m with you there through this
Dance of time is never ending
Let’s love louder, sacred change
Let’s love louder, sacred change
Times get harder
Let’s love louder
When thoughts grow darker
Let’s love stronger
When hearts grow bitter
Let’s love sweeter
When you can’t seem to find your way
And you don’t know what to say
Take a deep breath and stay
Open hearted
When life isn’t in control
And we’re dancing with the unknown
Take a deep breath
Let go and love louder
Time is never ending sacred change
Let’s Love Louder (Sacred Change) (feat. Hannah Lou Woods)
