So, this Agape trip is something new. It is not so much a love story as it is a family reunion. What we are attempting is complete integration – Eternal You with ego you. Many parts of the journey have gotten a bad rap. There is the “ego”. There are the “bad relationships”. There are a host of conspiracy theories, all plotting to make your life miserable. As you move further into the Awareness Field, you notice something – none of these people, plots or parts of you seem to be hanging back. We are all coming along. It's Ohana in action - "Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind.... or forgotten." This is not the oneness that we've dreamed of, it's the oneness we've created. Everyone included – regardless of past or current attitudes or actions. Well, shoot. What now? Now its time to dig deep into that pocket of acceptance and pull out understanding. There can be no judgment in Unity. No parts of us are wrong or need to make amends. All that was done, is. All that is, was done. We are parts of a single unit, moving in a circle. We have been each other and we've been here before. We may not have liked it much then either. Yet we are here, together again, reaching for absolute truth. Absolute truth is what your heart knows. Each and every one of you have felt it. Perhaps while making love, holding your child, hugging another or laughing til you cried. It's the indescribable glue that binds us to each other. This super glue is invisible. It cannot be measured. It must be lived and breathed and felt and exhaled. We are learning of the real power of our heart only in this last decade. It has a unifying function and seems to be the organizer of the human being. There is a book I'm reading now that talks about this - “The Heart's Code” by Paul Pearsall. It validates the intelligence and memory that is held in our heart. Words aren't adequate when Oneness and Agape are the subjects. Agape is a knowing. It is an understanding of everyone else simply because you are everyone else. It cannot be discovered but must be allowed. Agape is Unity experienced viscerally. It is Walking Oneness. You cannot find Agape because its never been lost. Not really. What you can do is reveal it. You do that by opening your heart to you. Then to me and to every enemy, friend and “other” you encounter. You do that by opening your heart, period. It will come to a choice and it'll be some version of this: “You can be right or you can be love. Choose now.” Invoke the love choice. You are worth every snippet of love available and then some. You are priceless and perfect and oh so much more than “right”. You the the One. The One you've been waiting for. Welcome home. See you tomorrow. ~Sophia

For this week of Gratitude, I'd like to share some powerful, beautiful work with you, work I am extremely grateful for as I walk this road of consciousness.
For the next 3 days take a visual journey, courtesy of my gifted friends at BRAVE Mandala. The CHAK-DALA in the photo above is the first of the 3, and is meant to be absorbed visually. Enjoy. See you tomorrow, ~Sophia ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Welcome to CHAK-DALA Quest….buckle up your precious, gorgeous self and soul. The visual ride begins now! “I salute the light within your eyes where the whole universe dwells. For when you are at that center within you and I am at that place within me, we shall be one.” - Chief Crazy Horse, Oglala Sioux, 1877 We are modeling CHAK-dala Quest after our friend Sophia’s “Love Quest”. They are both about the journey into our selves and into Love. Sophia does her’s through her exquisite artistry with words, our version is through the art of Mandala….CHAK-dala. This is our first foray into doing public and/or guided work with our CHAK-dalas and our work is always in a “State of Flux”. We are spacing the Quest out over a week to let ideas and energies breathe. Because everything is a process even break-out, over-night successes are years and lifetimes in the making. This Quest, this journey is about standing in One-ness with the Vast-ness of the universe. Disclaimer: we take every liberty with the words we use. Working with the energy of mandala and all its tendril-like connections…. is an area that needs new and more language to express what we are doing and sharing. If we use the word prayer it has nothing to do with religion, when we use the word power, it has nothing to do with politics or electricity, maybe your own personal governing or personal electricity, but that is yours. Yours is up to you and only You. Our intention is to gently steer you toward an experience of your true greatness by showing you reflections of you in sacred color and art. The theme(s) this week is ONEness, COherence and VASTNESS. 1.Today is about being in our ONE-ness. ONE-ness with the many parts of our selves. This goes beyond being a mother, a professional athlete, a healer, a man or a woman, etc. This is about rooting into our selves as spirit. Allow yourself to go to your roots, in the mandala, in your heart…….. integrating our selves in light. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We invite you to like our Facebook Page for our public world healing work at facebook.com/BRAVEmandala Our specialty is our personal CHAK-dala. We custom create and encode them for you, to show you your magnificence. Does our work speak to you? Contact us to commission your own Personal CHAK-dala. [email protected] This journey we are collectively taking does not begin at a starting gate and cross a finish line as if in a race. It is more a meandering... Yes we are born here and one day will die, yet we do not know the length of this momentary life. If in fullness you embrace each now, you will catch a glimpse of eternity. In a perpetual dream state, there are some fleeting images and others that seem to regenerate tirelessly. We are not built to “hurry this along” or “get there first”. We are, instead, here to absorb every nuance available; to accumulate a knowing of creation. Like sponges, with absorption there is a fullness. What spills out then is our knowing and the cycle begins anew. Saturated with awareness as creator sponges, we continue to allow for this knowing. Thus, excess creative drops are dispersed. Still ours, yet “separate” from us. These sponge drops of creation can be observed now, as the absorption continues. Each piece complete unto itself, as well as part of the whole. There is a point, a moment, a realization that comes - “We are One”. Glimpses of Oneness seep into our sponge self unbidden. This knowing cannot be called forth as it was never apart from you, just hidden. Once realized, desire emerges. It is the ultimate in satisfaction; complete awareness rests there. It waits for your discovery of itself. Patiently, joyfully and eternally this knowing is the very essence of creation – Your Eternal Essence. Like memories of your first love, you hold these glimpses of Oneness deeply, fondly, and longingly. Found once, your existence can no longer be disputed. You are both weaver and cloth, weaving your thread into the fabric of creation with every now. This human thread is held in the hands of Master Weavers. With skill and a willingness to take risks, true artistry emerges now. Self realizations simultaneously erupt universally and creation itself realizes its truth. We are unlimited. We are the Ones we've been waiting for. ~Sophia Join the next Love Quest here. You tube link here. This journey we are on, called life, is one of the most spectacular trips available. The experience of physical existence has within it every possibility. This planet is filled with over 7 billion humans – there are many who choose to visit here. To be clear, all facets of this life are known as possibilities before birth. There are no tricks played or secrets kept. In full awareness we incarnate, happy for the chance to live again. This talk of an “experiment” may have led you to think otherwise – to think that you’d been duped and your plan to be here at all was made under false pretenses. This is not how it works. Before being human, the “you” that is, knows every aspect it has ever been, as well as the aspects of others. It is not possible to “hide” the truth of you. Knowledge of each other comes with contact. This inability to deceive creates every possibility for clear choices and transparent decisions. This kind of clarity goes away from the human as we dive more deeply into this “reality”. All of this is part of our plan. The thing that humanity offers us by way of experience is emotion/passion. This is not to say that other beings are void of emotion, because they are not. Humanity holds within its makeup a deep well of passion and belief in the sanctity of life. The way in which mankind expresses love and beauty and hope and hate is unique; beneath it lays an unwavering faith and trust that it’s meant to be fair. Despots and dictators arise because they know that belief exists and there exists a chance at manipulation and perceived “power” because of it. They are here to “play” with that. Potentials for all possible ends of the spectrum of control are exciting. When not human, there are limits as to how much emotion/feeling will be a part of creation. There is desire and personality always. Yet the extremes of passion are possible only in a life while human. This is the source of unparalleled heights and depths of feeling; a wealth of addictions. We have labeled these “addictions” as negative and “work” to overcome them. This is interesting because they are the whole reason we are here. It may be more prudent to celebrate them! They make up the most exciting parts of you! When addictions are referred to here, it is not in the sense of chemical addictions only – the kinds that are ingested. It is behaviors; those that stimulate the process to create the chemical for you. These behaviors become habitual because they afford a sensation you crave. That is addiction. It could be any behavior at all, yet it will lead always to a familiar sensation. The thrill of that sensation excites you and inspires a desire for more, as if it were a drug. In fact it is, but not a drug we are taking, one we are making. You will search for opportunities in your days to do it again and again. Consciousness implies an awareness of these physical tendencies, acceptance for them as facets of the personality and an understanding that they are not “faults” but very human traits – one of the reasons for being human at all. They are not “bad”; they are part of the program. It becomes a challenge to remove “you” out of the equation; everything here is taken personally. The ability to love and live without judgment is the goal here. In order to embody unconditional love you must understand every condition that is its opposite. The exquisite feelings of love, the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat – each of these are addictions. You will repeat them until every nuance is understood. This has been the plan. Today it is widely understood that many of the reasons for the most violent extremes of these emotions – the hardships and challenges of human slavery – have been fabricated. There are beings who possess intimate knowledge of the human psyche and have used it to manipulate man for their own addictions of power and worship. You are at a point now, the ultimate point in the plan, where you have a choice. What will you do? How will you judge? Will you judge? What is unacceptable to you? What does freedom mean? Is such a thing as punishment necessary or is Karma enough? Will you seek revenge? This is the choice of mankind and what is done here will reverberate to every other life in all of creation. If Oneness motivates the decision, there exists a possibility for compassion that until this moment did not exist. The force and effect of cruelty and pain is felt in each heart. It is there now that the possibility for unsurpassed acceptance rests – agape. Now that you know the truth, the power to change all of creation rests in your hands. The slave has come full circle. Ownership is not possible; a sovereign being realizes its possibilities for expression – all of them. Knowing what you are capable of and what has been done before – what will you choose now? The results are in. This was an experiment to reach for the light. It is within your grasp. What you do now changes everything. You are the Ones we’ve been waiting for. ~Sophia ~~ (reposted from 1/2014) Check out the other pages on my new site!

Much love and peace everyone...~~~ “A written word is the choicest of relics. It is something at once more intimate with us and more universal than any other work of art. It is the work of art nearest to life itself. It may be translated into every language, and not only be read but actually breathed from all human lips; -- not be represented on canvas or in marble only, but be carved out of the breath of life itself.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden This is an urgent call to the one people. WE ARE ONE. WE ARE ONE. WE ARE ONE. A PART OF US HAS STOOD UP FOR ALL OF US. SHE IS CURRENTLY BEING HELD WITHOUT HER CONSENT BY OTHERS OF US. HERE IS HER STORY. HELP FREE HER. This can be done with written words and presence and intention. It can be done kindly, gently, with determination and numbers. Another of us, a fierce advocate for sovereignty, has this to say: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Martin Luther King, Jr. (thanks Eric!) www.davidicke.com It is us. We are the One we’ve been waiting for.
Our enslavement is our compliance. We are not slaves. WE ARE GODS. BE THE GOD THAT YOU ARE. SET YOURSELF FREE. THIS MOMENT NOW IS THE MOMENT YOU ARE BEING TESTED, ASKED, URGED TO STAND UP. LET’S DO SO. ~Sophia 7 hours after posting, this off world message was received, including a message about Kiri : "The New Zealand's government is well understanding and one of few governments that People trust. This woman could be freed if many People would agree to sign a petitions and support her with peaceful rallies." Included as well was this song, "Final Hope", which is fitting. There’s only one way to create. “Let there be light”, and light IS. The story is simple, straightforward and clear. It did not go – “Let there be light, and let it show up on Saturday, at 2:00 PM GMT, until precisely Midnight GMT, at only these places, while these 11 people are doing these 7 things, NOT these other things, or with these other people, or on this other day or in this other way.” We are Masters, becoming conscious of that fact. We’ve recently been made aware of our value, our ability, our power and the truth of our multi-dimensional existence. It is not that we are sometimes here and sometimes elsewhere, we are always all places. It is not that we are creators some days and not others, we are and have always been Master creators. The difference now is that we are doing so on purpose. Like any new skill, it is gradually assimilated. Through trial and error, we hone the craft. It is brilliant in its simplicity and surprising in its reach. Each moment, every thought, all words are creative. Our wishes, frustrations, joys and disappointments send out a vibe. From there, our life is made manifest. Rather than worry over the multitude of thoughts we hold, we can remember just one; focus trumps all. It is not a person, date, group or method that will grant your wish. It is your intent, belief and focus. If I decide to lose ten pounds and spend my days angry at the numbers on the scale or the image in the mirror, I will end up no closer to my goal at the end of them. My weight will be unchanged most likely, only I’ll be a bit more angry, discouraged and frustrated. If instead I spend time doing things I enjoy and I am active; while dressing to feel good about myself, then I will (feel good). A by product of the increased activity and positive emotion could very well be a loss of weight. In any case, I will be happier, which will attract more of what I enjoy. We’ve been trained as slaves. Slaves expect all things to come from their masters. As we remove the shackles from our own limbs, it’s time to also cut them from those we’ve decided hold the key. The I/UV or any other prosperity/freedom package out there is not the controller of your destiny. You are. Remove your focus on who, how and when and place it solely on what. FREEDOM. ABUNDANCE. UNITY. TRUTH. LOVE. VALUE. ABSOLUTE AWARENESS. These are the attributes of a Master. This is what your life is. Not because Caleb released a piece of software, St. Germaine released the gold or of any other specific event. Because this is what you are. You are not becoming anything new. You are realizing your very own truth. A caterpillar has always held the makings of a butterfly, albeit unaware. You have within the attributes of Mastery. The controllers have effectively convinced you of your need for something outside yourself. You have no need, you are Gods. Aim your focus squarely on freedom; watch heaven manifest before your eyes. This is more about belief than faith. Faith can distract you with details and descriptions of what is not happening. Know the truth of creation; “what you see is what you get.” Declare it every day and let it go. Live your life knowing who you are. Nothing is more important than agape. As our self-love encompasses Oneness, our focus incorporates joy for all of us. There can be no disappointment in a life fully and intentionally lived. All moments are expected, experienced fully and appreciated. With gratitude for each component of us and for every part played, stay present in the Now. From there all of life begins. As we let go of our death grip of expectation on those most visible players of this end game, we’ll see an exponential increase in effect. Only we can do this. This is what Masters do, we support the whole. You empower each other and in turn, propel us all towards absolute knowing. You are the One. ~Sophia Moving now into this heralded “golden age”, we come to this – full realization. Without separation there is only love. Any division takes place within, as it is there creation is birthed. The spark of desire drives it all. Collectively we awaken and begin to see past one or the other, to all. We are One, there is no other. The sharp division of days, ideas, people and their truth is everything but. A moment in time is indefinable, except by emotion. There is no clock to signify it has begun or ended; no calendar to prepare for its emergence. A moment simply happens. It is unrecognized until it is reflected upon. We hold now the possibility of reflection and self-determination. It is within us. We’ve moved through this pivotal date, 12/21/12; it’s time to say goodbye. We can all agree on at least that – it is over. Anticipation, prediction, preparation or inquiry is no longer necessary, whew! Perhaps the reason for all the hoopla and the “end of times" label was to get us to understand that time is not the point. There are those who tell us that the “dimension” beyond “third” is that of “time”. We’ve talked before about our clocks not working. I can report that there are periods of “time” when even my cell phone tells me it’s a different day and hour than most of this time zone seems to think. This then requires a complete reset, with power source removed, to get back in sync. Time appears to be a random and subjective measurement. So, as we move through this moment now of “after the shift”, how will we proceed? To be sure there will be more predictions and promises of dates and events; yet all fall under “the beginning times”. We’ve hung tightly on to beliefs, definitions and attitudes. This next phase is about letting go; of clocks, dates and ideas that separate. All is One. Unity is possible. Oneness is perceived via the heart. It is our head that clings tightly – our heart knows only freedom. This moment we’ve collectively stepped into will utilize our heart as the primary organ of perception in a conscious way. It’ll be okay to set as primary objectives things like understanding, equality, mutual benefit, collective progress, empowerment and universal success. We’ll declare it to be so. Because we are human, we’ll create this beginning in a unique and exciting way. It’ll be just as we like it best, filled with passion, thrills and edge of your comfort zone choices. It will have contrast and comfort, expansion and steady growth. This is our moment. It cannot be foretold, it must be felt. There will come a point when we’ll look back and reflect, and perhaps agree “Those were the beginning times.” For today though, dates no longer have relevance – it is only now that matters. There is no such thing as late or missed your chance – we are exactly where we need to be. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. Here are the lyrics in English for this beautiful song (Time to say goodbye): When I'm alone I dream of the horizon and words fail me. There is no light in a room where there is no sun and there is no sun if you're not here with me, with me. From every window unfurls my heart the heart that you have won. Into me you've poured the light, the light that you found by the side of the road. Time to say goodbye. Places that I've never seen or experienced with you. Now I shall, I'll sail with you upon ships across the seas, seas that exist no more, it's time to say goodbye. When you're far away I dream of the horizon and words fail me. And of course I know that you're with me, with me. You, my moon, you are with me. My sun, you're here with me with me, with me, with me. Time to say goodbye. Places that I've never seen or experienced with you. Now I shall, I'll sail with you upon ships across the seas, seas that exist no more, I'll revive them with you. I'll go with you upon ships across the seas, seas that exist no more, I'll revive them with you. I'll go with you. You and me. It is our third day. We are on a Quest for truth. This is not a simple thing; it is the only thing. In lifetime after lifetime, you’ve come here searching. Your search is over. Your heart holds what you’ve been craving. You reside in a field of love. Your very base programming begins there. It is the spark of each other that joins you. Isolated, you may appreciate nature and love life, yet it is in human contact that you embody the fierce power of agape. For when you love another, it is not their attributes that are calling to your soul, but a reminder of your own. When you look at each other and are deeply moved, it is because at a fundamental level you understand that there you behold the sacred. It is you that has stirred your own soul. What this moment is about is a shedding of our skin of self-loathing. What is not perfection is not true. The veil that we speak of is not draped between ourselves and others - but hanging, invisibly, as a barrier to the truth. It is you on the other side of that veil - gloriously abundant and here now on purpose. Your vessel will push waves of light cascading over all of creation, creating tsunamis of love. For love is a force. Love is here because you are here. It arrives unbidden whenever you do. It takes a being of unimaginable power to embody divinity. It takes you. Once you embody your truth, we shift. We have come here thinking it was possible to be alone; understanding now our unity. We are but One. There is no better, worse, richer, poorer, deserving or undeserving. In each of our moments it is decided whose needs take precedence – these things are not foretold by age or economic status, color or title. We are but different fingers on one hand – equal in all ways. Oneness is understood as a by product of Agape. Unconditional love breaks out and encompasses all of life. Once you feel the extraordinary power of simple self acceptance – you are transmogrified. You emerge from that discovery a “fifth dimensional human”. Duality is not in your realm. Unity is a fact, period. As you breathe – you love. Our questions and misunderstandings all stem from a lack of love. Accept who you are without exception. This radical act changes everything. We are here to create the shift of the ages and there is no one else who can. We are the One we’ve been waiting for. For an audio version, click on the herons! It’s 15 degrees by the lake here this morning. A dozen huge white herons are circling round and round, occasionally diving down and skimming the water. This is unusual, seeing them working together like this. They are more typically alone or in pairs. They too are adapting to this constant, intense stream of love; they are acting as One. It is like watching a well choreographed dance – the sun gradually lifts the shadows from the backdrop of bare trees, as this flock of stark white feathered wings swim through the air in unison. On the still waters beneath them, a hundred geese paddle quietly, mesmerized. One by one the herons depart, as if on cue; after thirty minutes only a single pair remains, sweeping in an ever widening circle, eventually disappearing over the tree tops. This silent demonstration of unity has finished. The Hopi say that “the time for the lone wolf is over”. Oneness will be like nothing we’ve ever experienced. As these birds flew together this morning by some inner prompting, we too will move as One. This is not patriotism, team spirit or family pride. This is a deep inner resonance with life. All of creation speaks and oneness is an amplifier, opening our senses to truth. There are no wasted moments. There is no useless creature and you do not have to take time out of your day to appreciate nature – there is no time. Life is. Every moment is an appreciation of creation. The schedules and deadlines and lost moments will dissolve as illusions naturally do. Life presents itself to us in all ways as a constant flow before our eyes – in faces, sunsets, laughter, trees, work and play. Life becomes the only thing we do! There are no jobs or days off or vacation – all is One. Polarity was a trick, a magician’s illusion, so pervasive that it infiltrated every aspect of existence. We have come to believe there is something other than us; that we are capable of inflicting pain or pleasure, loss or abundance and freedom or slavery without feeling it ourselves. It’s a lie. As Oneness envelops our every move, we’ll come to understand that the discomfort felt with each judgment, negative thought or harsh word, is just like stubbing your own toe. All of us are mirrors. This is the time to fall in love with your reflection without exception. The care that we give to our loved one will be given still – as our understanding of “loved one” expands, so does love. All of creation is love’s expression. We are witnessing God in every moment. Waiting is no longer necessary, we are the One. Hello everyone. Today we’ll continue with our Quest for another 6 days. What’s been going on for me is that I took the words from our first day and absorbed them into every fiber of my being. A sort of battle ensued. I am not sure what instigated it – perhaps the combination of the “Day of Decision” meditation and our Quest did the trick. It was no longer possible to be partially or half way in- I was either in or out. It became time to walk my talk – it was Agape or continued self loathing. I had to make a choice. This was not a choice that could be made on face book or in this blog. This choice had to spring from my soul. It was not easily made and not pretty to watch. It began with nothing to say, and then proceeded along with a litany of reasons to despise who I was. I gradually began to speak. I believe my body had a decision to make. The influx of light from Sunday’s meditation and love from everyone here brought me to a choice point. Was I love or was I a ‘poser? I gave up for a day or so – there was no light. Perhaps you’d call this my Dark Night of the Soul. It felt that way. I’ve had one before, many years ago. I didn’t know you could have more than one. A whole host of reasons and lovers and words later, I began to feel like love again. It is different now. It feels real. I am not a ‘poser. I am love. I don’t know if my words will sound different to you, but they sure will to me. Although I have always believed them and known them – now I am them. There is no outside force that will alter this truth. I know who I am. We have journeyed together through forgiveness to Agape, headed for Oneness. We can help each other with encouraging words, pictures and videos. Yet the real knowing is not found in any of those places. You will know you’ve found it when no one can cause you to doubt it. They can yell at you, leave you, fire you, steal from you or hurt you – yet they cannot remove from you your truth. You cannot hate them or blame them. You do not hate or blame yourself. You are divinity in shoes, a spark shot forth from Source, light in a human suit. You are love. Everyone here is love as well. You are here to demonstrate that One Truth. Self love is the foundation of your brilliance. No one knows better than you the strength of your soul. Show us your beauty and gift us with your wisdom. You are the One we’ve been waiting for. With deepest gratitude and overwhelming love, I will see you tomorrow. ~Sophia |
