Speaker - presented by Christine Goritchan
The Journey of the Soul
Christine opened her talk by welcoming Val as her ‘Proof of Life’ demonstrating partner remarking that, she had not thought about bringing anyone with her, but Spirit knew what was needed.
“I want to share a little about the journey of the soul and yes, it is a huge subject but today, we will think about where we are now on this journey and there are many aspects that affect us on a day-to-day basis.
It is the journey of the soul that is so important for us to consider and while we try often other things get in the way. Spirit threw many words at me; understanding, knowing, awareness, connection, commitment, realisation, persistence, celebration, and there is always a plus one – allowance.”
She went on to speak about how, as we grow, we take on patterns that stay with us throughout our lives and these patterns can affect us positively or adversely as we proceed to learn about our soul journey. “The purpose of this soul journey is to come back to the truth of self and expansion of being.”
If you have that you have everything and everything falls into place. So, the question is,
Do you know your truth?
What you really love?
Where do you need to be for you.
Where are you placing your energy?
Who are you giving your energy away to?
Is your current truth in alignment with your soul journey?”
She went on to say that as we learn we can ask these questions of ourselves and if the answer is not to our liking, we can do something about it.
We have the choice, and that choice allows us to continue our soul journey or not. It is always our choice. But it is always in accordance with our soul journey. There is divine timing in everything we do, and with anyone we meet.
We must trust that our soul journey will reveal itself as we open ourselves to see and receive the lessons and more importantly, learn from them.
Homily - Presented by Sonny Hart
The Rules for Being Human
Sonny began her Homily with a series of statements.
You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it but it will be your for the entire period this time around.
You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called Life. Each day in this school, you will have the opportunity to learn. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant of stupid.
There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error: Experimentation. The ‘failed’ experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that works.
A Lesson is repeated until it is learned. A lesson is presented to you in various forms. Once you have learned that lesson you will go onto the next lesson.
The learning of lesson does not end. There is no part of the school of Life that does not contain lessons. If you are alive there are lessons to be leaned.
There is no “Better” than here. When your “There” has become “Here”, you will simply obtain another that will again look better than here.
Others are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself.
What you make of your Life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
Your answers lie within you. All you need to do is LOOK, LISTEN, TRUST.
You will forget this. You can remember it whenever you want to.
