Quiet Listening

Mary:
I have been doing the audio clean up for Jon Mundy’s seminar on mysticism. In this seminar Jon talks about the Trappist monks who, as part of their way of life, do not speak unless absolutely needed. Jon tells us in the workshop that these monks have found it very valuable to allow an open space in their minds for quietness. They have found the gifts of peace and understanding that quietness brings.

In this workshop Jon shares with us that in our process of awakening, we too will open up to the gifts that quietness brings. The Holy Spirit is there. In A Course in Miracles we are told that with peace comes understanding. We are told that we are either joining with the ego’s world of separation or we are joined with Holy Spirit’s knowing of oneness. Through allowing time of quiet we find the Holy Spirit is there, waiting to be our Guide. The Holy Spirit guides us to a total thought reversal where we feel the knowing of oneness that never changes. This cannot be taught with words. It can only be taught by the Teacher within as we are willing to be quiet and listen.

I am finding that as my willingness to follow Holy Spirit grows, that allowing time for quietness is more and more important. There is such happiness there. There is such peace. There is such understanding. I see that I am truly blessed and that everyone is there with me. I see that nothing has happened to change God’s one Son. I see that we are still in Heaven and have never left, no matter what raucous dreams we get involved with in our minds. In quietness we see that we are safe. We are Home. We are innocent and we are loving and loved eternally.

Robert:
Today I would step back and let Love lead the way in every present moment.

Holy Spirit to Dorie:  So many times you have used a multitude of words as a screen for defense. Now you are learning, that in hearing others, you hear the truth of their walk with Me. As you listen to others and to Me, you both receive healing. You both see the path you will both share in your journey to peace.  There is no separation. There is just one Son.
