Post No. 271 - Compassion and uncooperatives

Something I have posted about a few times is the rescue of uncooperatives [1]. These are those entities who are earthbound, probably know that they are earthbound, but do not wish to move on - often because they are enjoying the exercise of "invisible" influence ...

By the time I get to deal with these people, the destructive influence they are having on other people has reached a point where they need to be removed for the sake of others' wellbeing - and I give a way of doing that here.

Well, Dawn Hill gives a description of how that would be done by someone who is extremely spiritually evolved in her book "Love is the Answer, What is the Question" [2]. To set the scene first, though, she initially describes an encounter she has with a fire demon. What happens there begins with someone Dawn refers to as Shaun, who is suffering from possessions or obsession, asking for help. As part of that, the fire demon which is pivotal in Shaun's problems is channelled through one of the sitters in the circle Dawn runs, and is forced to leave the sitter after 20 minutes of channelling love and light. (It could, in my opinion, have been useful for them to know how to identify and clear specific negative units.) Two nights later, the fire demon attacks Dawn, leaving her in the situation of feeling like a sardine taking on an enraged whale. She asks for help from the Christ spirit, which leads her to "No matter what what you do to me, you cannot make me stop loving." That is enough to repel the demon.

Now, Dawn has also found benefit in the associations of the Grail and the Grail's associated spiritual quests. This also includes contact with a person she refers to as "the Lady of the Grail", who is - effectively - the Goddess (and Dawn discusses the many names the Lady/Goddess is known by, and issues such as the Christian church's bias against women).

Well, when Dawn encounters the next demon that she writes about (and, by the way, I do accept that such creatures exist), she calls on the Lady to help her clear the demon. She prepares for a surge of Light, but what happens is that she sees the demon from the perspective of the Lady, as a small, bitter creature surrounded by darkness, rather than the imposing, threatening vision Dawn had perceived. The Lady sees the hurt which has driven this creature to become negative, and is able to manifest so much compassion that she wins it over - a bit like winning over a dog that has been traumatised and turned savage by violent abuse.

It is the way that the very evolved handle such matters. I'm afraid I'm not there yet ...

At least I am aiming for that level of spirituality, however :)

Post No. 267 - Dawn Hill

My partner and I are reading/re-reading Dawn Hill's excellent New Age books, which include mediumship (her husband Roland finds he is a trance medium, but she talks about how mediumship is far more than just trance mediumship), rescue (including trance rescue, as well as the more commonly used "mental" or telepathic rescue - and see elsewhere on this blog where I have posted about this topic) and psychic development. This is quite fun, with each of us finding a bit we like, and then reading it out to the other as we work through these books from the 1980s. (It appears Dawn Hill may have lived in or near Mackay when I was there, in the early 80s. She was born in 1946 in Tasmania, and spent her early childhood on King Island in Bass Strait.)

One such piece is in "Lifting the Veil" [1], where Dawn is talking of research into the two halves of the brain. After describing the research, she poses a series of light-hearted questions, beginning with: "Could a person who only thinks with one half of his/her brain be considered a half-wit?" and continuing up to "Could this mean the world is being controlled by half-wits?"

Hmmmm. Indeed :)

(Oh how that could be applied to a number of engineers I've worked with over the years!)

These books are hard to track down, but they are well worth the effort: she also wrote "Reaching for the Other Side" [2] and "Edge of Reality". The exercises and advice on psychic development are very useful.

As a small example, in the section on brain function, Dawn talks about how she adapts some of her teaching. For instance, if people are having problems visualising, she will use other words (such as imagination) or explain that it feels as if you are day-dreaming. This adaptability is important - as she writes in her first book, her guide once explained, when Dawn was feeling stupid at not understanding, that the fault was of the teachers:

"My daughter you are not stupid. If a student does not learn the teacher is at fault, for he has neither correctly assessed the student's level of development nor delivered the lesson in the appropriate way. If something is explained to you properly, you will understand it. Therefore if you do not learn you are not a poor student, I am a poor teacher."

It is nice to read of a New Age author who writes about angels and singing psalms who is also respectful of the "Old Religion" (which is a term for Wicca/witchcraft) and Earth religions, open about sexuality and religions (at least, as far as having premarital and/or casual sex is concerned; I haven't found her attitudes towards bisexuality or same sex attraction yet, though).

She also writes respectfully on animals, including that they have souls, and gives an explanation of the dngers of using ouija boards that is slightly different to what I have come across before. Her warning is that the ouija board needs energies that are closer to the physical to move the pointer (planchette, I think is the proper name), and hence users are more or less inherently tuning into the lower astral.

I am looking forward to seeing what she writes about the dangers of getting drunk (not drinking in moderation). I've had a reminder fairly near to me that such behaviour can cause possession or obsession.
