It's time for the truth - Can we get to that!
September 10, 2010, 04:18:34 PM
Many years ago, I was an avid reader.  Not so much now as then.  I purchased a book the name of which is Illusions - The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah, by Richard Bach.  Throughout the years, I have often felt that Michael's awakening had been foretold in this book.  Here is a quote from it:  'There was a master come unto the earth, born in the holy land of Indiana" :shock:   I was like whoa!  I have been trying to find this quote online and could not.  But,alas I came across some others that might help you understand why I have felt this way.  By the way, the book was written in 1977,long before people realized what they had in Michael Jackson.  The following link will offer some insight about what you will find in the book.  If you don't have it, I would suggest you seriously think about buying it.

This quote that most people in the world use everyday came from Richard Bach:  If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours; if they don't they never were.

Wow, and it's called ILLUSIONS...!

I like this one:

What you have just witnessed could be the end of a particularly terrifying nightmare. It isn’t. It’s the beginning.

Here is one that I always loved: "Every person, all the events of your life, are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you."

and then another:

""There is no problem so big that it cannot be run away from."...
"You're quoting Snoopy the dog, I believe?"
"I'll quote the truth wherever I find it thank you."

Well this summary made me smile.... this is quite intriguing!

These are the things that made me go hmmmmm....  :lol:

"What if somebody came along who could teach me how my world works and how to control it? ... What if a Siddhartha came to our time, with power over the illusions of the world because he knew the reality behind them?"

"People value the showbiz-like performance of miracles and want to be entertained by those miracles more than to understand the message behind them"

One of the most important lessons is that reality is based on perspective.

"What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls a butterfly."

Isn't it dejavue :D   It's so eerily Michael like.  1977 is a long time ago and all of it is still so very relevant to the Michael experience today.

Interesting, I read that one of Michael's favourite books is "Jonathon Livingston Seagull" also written by Richard Bach.

Jonathan Livingston Seagull, written by Richard Bach, is a fable in novella form about a seagull learning about life and flight, and a homily about self-perfection.

"Each of us is in truth an idea of the Great Gull, an unlimited idea of freedom,”

"Heaven is not a place, and it is not a time. Heaven is being perfect."

"You will begin to touch heaven, Jonathan, in the moment that you touch perfect speed. And that isn’t flying a thousand miles an hour, or a million, or flying at the speed of light. Because any number is a limit, and perfection doesn’t have limits. Perfect speed, my son, is being there."

He spoke of very simple things – that it is right for a gull to fly,that freedom is the very nature of his being, that whatever stands against that freedom must be set aside, be it ritual or superstition or limitation in any form.
“Set aside,” came a voice from the multitude, “even if it be the Law of the Flock?”
“The only true law is that which leads to freedom,” Jonathan said.
“There is no other.”
“How do you expect us to fly as you fly?” came another voice.
“You are special and gifted and divine, above other birds.”

“To fly as fast as thought, to anywhere that is,” he said,”you must begin by knowing that you have already arrived…”

“The trick Fletcher is that we are trying to overcome our limitations in order, patiently, We don’t tackle flying through rock until a little later in the program.”
“Jonathan!”.
“Also known as the Son of the Great Gull ” his instructor said dryly,
“What are you doing here? The cliff! Haven’t I didn’t I.., die?”
“Oh, Fletch, come on. Think. If you are talking to me now, then obviously you didn’t die, did you? What you did manage to do was to change your level of consciousness rather abruptly.

Jonathan sighed. The price of being misunderstood, he thought. They call you devil or they call you god.

"Jonathan Seagull discovered that boredom and fear and anger are the reasons that gull’s life is so short and with these gone from his thought, he lived a long fine life indeed."

lAST QUOTE: " I tried. I closed my eyes and wondered what was going to
happen to me if I stayed much longer with this strange person. It
was fun to be with him, but I couldn’t shake the sense that something
not fun at all was going to happen to him before long, and I
didn’t want to be around when it did. Thinking that, I opened the
book with my eyes still closed, then opened them and read.
You are led
through your lifetime
by the inner learning creature,
the playful spiritual being
that is your real self.
Don’t turn away
from possible futures
before you’re certain you don’t have
anything to learn from them.
You’re always free
to change your mind and
choose a different future, or
a different
past."

WOW :shock:
