Conversations with Zoe and Buddha: Let the Tide Turn

Buddha: Sometimes we say, “Love shall set you free”- free from what? You’re own sense of tyranny, isolation and desperation. Let yourself feel love; let yourself be loving, and the tide will turn. As it does so it shall wash the fears, cares and concerns away. You will have peace.

Listen and look inside

Conversation with Jesus and Zoe: Listen and Look Inside

Jesus: For those are willing to listen, listen now.  The change is upon us.  Are you with us?  If you are looking, look inside and ask yourself honestly,

“How do I feel?”  No measure of spirituality can deny true existence of pain.

Pain is unable to be transcended by Us.  But with willingness to acknowledge its existence and wholesome desire for a better way of being we can lift you out from it and it can disappear.

Meet us half way and we will lift you into our arms.  Do this by taking the time to look inside.  There is nothing you could find that would ever inhibit our desire to help you.

Allow yourself support and rest in your honesty and your fears will be now more.

This is all.

Build A Better World: Jesus with Zoe

Build a better world

Conversations with Jesus and Zoe: Build A Better World 

Jesus: You walk through the lives of many each and every one of you.  Ask yourself what do you leave behind?  Promise, faith, hope, smiles?  Anger, resentment, fear, alienation, isolation?  Make sure you are aware of the impact.  Think of the child responding to the mood of the adult.  What do you wish your legacy to be?  With each step, each glance, each phone call, each hug you interact with another.  Even in thoughts.  Nothing is invisible.  If you could see your “effect” or residue as tangibly as a badge of emotion on another- and you knew that they could also see the badge that your impact had- would you change?

Let’s build a better world.  It only takes you.  Together we will succeed.

Love.

Alleviate Suffering: Jesus with Zoe

Alleviate suffering

Conversation with Jesus and Zoe: Alleviate Suffering

 

JesusThe suffering of many can be greatly alleviated by the few.  Ensure the people you place in power represent your desires in relieving the pain of many, either by direct action, lobbying or simply standing up and speaking.  The time to take a stand for what is important is now.  For those of you without a voice, without faith and hope of relief, understand that your time will come.  Your suffering does not go unnoticed and you are never unloved.

For those of you with voice, with means or capability, take a stand for your fellow men.  Your fate is their fate.  Consider that at the day of reckoning your individual lives may be measured against the fate of your peoples as a whole.  I say this not to instill fear or guilt but to simply provide you with an opportunity to refocus, make choices and serve the whole rather than the self in isolation of the world around you.

Do what you can with peace, faith and hope as your bastions.  My work is through you workings.

With love.

Lesson on Love Part 3: Jesus with Zoe

Lesson on love part 3

Conversations with Jesus and Zoe: Lesson on Love Part 3

Jesus: It is not easy to love in the face of adversity.  Love is a state that can be cultivated easily for it is your natural state!  It is only the stresses and fears of modern life that separates you from your love and others for your love too.

Love is not for sunshine days but for rainy days too.  (It is especially effective then.)

Learn to cultivate love in your everyday reality and come closer to me.

How do you do that?  Make it your intention to practice love throughout the day.  Pay particular attention to times when you disconnect from love (it will be a time of perceived slight) and then reconnect.

All is well.

Lesson on love part 1

Conversation with Jesus and Zoe: Lesson on Love Part 1

Jesus: Many of my children hold back their love.  They believe that if it’s not reciprocated then they will feel shame.  This is not the meaning of love.  Love is to be given generously, and not just to a small few.  Learn to give love freely.  To you, your family, friends, colleagues, strangers, even enemies.  Do not hold yourself back from this and await permission for love to be granted from another.  This leads to whole families, communities, even nations repressing their God given right to love and care for each other, and this is a sorry state of affairs.

Try giving love today, without fear, guilt or shame.  Know that by giving you move closer to me and the love I share with you.

You are always loved.  This is what it means to be a child of God.

With love given from me freely and generously.

Resist Nothing: Buddha with Zoe

Resist Nothing, https://conversationswithjesusandbuddha.com/resist-nothing/ ‎
Resist nothing

Conversation with Buddha and Zoe: Resist Nothing. 

Buddha: Let me explain what this means.

For mind and mastery to be complete there needs to be a full understanding of the nature of mind; the workings of mind and the ability from that therefore to direct mind.  “Resist nothing” does not refer to earthly pleasures or deliberately indulging in squalid, dirty, self gratification states.  However, the fear that that is where the mind could take one, means that one resists certain thoughts, urges and in the resistance, one becomes unable to see what is real.  In other words the fear of what might be real creates resistance so that reality is never quite achieved albeit heavily sought by the individual.

Your mind takes you in a myriad of directions always towards the same point though: truth, honor, trust, faith, strength.  Yet this is not the experience of mind that people have.  Indeed for most mind is perpetual thinking, perpetual thoughts that take you in a myriad of directions.  When one approaches a type of thought that one identifies as ‘bad’, such as what we have already spoken about- thoughts of squalor, deprivation, etc,- one immediately sensors those thoughts. Yet where do these thoughts come from?  Why would you sensor one and not all thought? For if we were to be fully present we would be aware of the nature of our thoughts.

I will try to keep this clear on this occasion.  Mind is strength, faith, focus, union with spirit.  It is a gateway to the essence, to the soul, to God, and the God experience.  The road to this is paved and littered with thought.  These thoughts are like leaves fallen from the trees in autumn and how we choose to respond to our journey, whilst in body, is often to become distracted by the thoughts that are on the path: to the point that we become concerned only with the nature of the leaves and the nature of do we like the leaves.  And we have forgotten that the purpose of the path is to bring us to union, union with ourselves in the arms of God.  Therefore resist no leaf.  As you are dedicated to following your path- the path to you, the path to union with God – falsehood comes only from focusing and identifying and creating relationships with thought forms.  Therefore resist nothing.  Accept all and continue on your journey where we will await you.

Breath: Buddha with Zoe

Breath

Conversation with Buddha and Zoe: Breath

 

Buddha: Reluctance to pursue that which is of most importance is a trait that almost all in humanity are blinded by.

Anyone who has ever achieved anything has focused and taken away their reluctance and what they achieved in is what they considered important.  Priority is the breath: the priority is understanding that today you are alive no matter what is happening in the world around you or in your own mind: here you are.

Breath: know that there is nothing to fear in the breathe and very rarely is there anything to fear in the present moment.

Work on this today and I will be with you.

Look Within: Buddha with Zoe

Look within, https://conversationswithjesusandbuddha.com/method-of-madness/ ‎
Look within

Conversation with Buddha and Zoe: In Times of Fear and Uncertainty Look Within

 

Buddha: We are living in a time of collective madness.  We are living in societies and civilizations, not all but most, where people are living with a collective consciousness below that of hysteria.  The threat is believed to come from every angle: from economic downturn, from terrorists, from immigrants, from racial minorities.

Within this context many of you will become uncomfortable, unable to function to the best of your abilities and unable to accept this way of being for yourself, for your community, for your country anymore.

When these times arise there is only one place to look that is not in defensive strategies, that is not in armament either of weapon or money.  The time to look is the time to look inside and to learn to become one with what you find there in. There is nothing to be frightened or fearful of inside of yourself.  There is nothing inside you that, with focus and dedication, cannot be turned into gold.  So during this time look inside without fear. There will be great reticence initially at doing this for what is hidden has been hidden for good reason or so the mind has told you.  But it is illusion as I repeat there is nothing that is within any human alive that cannot be turned into gold, that cannot be turned into the seeker and even the finder of better states of being.

I have been asked, “Why look within? Why will looking within and becoming at peace with what one finds be a strategy in uncertain times such as these?”

You are connected to the collective mind, to the consciousness of humanity.  For the consciousness to change be the change.  If enough people in uncertain times become stable and solid and stalwart then peace will be able to return.  Think of a life or death situation that is being faced by a group of people.  If there is one that is able to find the peace, the strength, the courage to stay in the moment and to deal with what is happening, that one is able to impact the hysteria of the many; not always successfully but impact would be made.

Now think if there were two or three or four, the odds are getting better aren’t they.  So in uncertain times when one is concerned with ones material future switch to ones interior future and begin the work.  By creating stillness, by allowing the system to harmonize, you will not only make more logical and grounded steps you will also impact the collective of everyone around you.

This is all for today.

An Exercise in Kindness: Buddha with Zoe

An exercise in kindness

Conversation with Buddha and Zoe: An Exercise in Kindness

 

Buddha: Today we speak about the milk of human kindness.  Consider acting as if you are the kindest person ever placed on earth.  Try for one day, one hour, one minute to be kind in thought, action and deed.  Practice this.  After you have done so ask yourself how do you feel? Better or worse?  Give yourself a target time that you feel you can aim for and achieve whether this is one minute, one hour, one day, one week.  Work towards becoming the kindest you can be.  Even in the moments where worry, fear, anger and resentment arise.  Test yourself to see how quickly you can return to conscious kindness.

This in your lesson for today.
