We spend a lot of time thinking and talking about our hopes and dreams, but how often do we think about the vision the Universe had for us.  When you really think about it, this is the true meaning of vision—getting a true understanding of the vision the universe has for us.  And when we have the courage to actualize this vision, we become powerful co-creators called Visionaries. 

It takes courage to actualize the vision the Universe has for us because often you are stepping out on unknown territory. Expansion and growth always requires that we step into the unknown. In fact, the Queen of Media, Oprah Winfrey stated:

“The true meaning of courage is to be afraid, and then, with your knees knocking and your heart racing, to step out anyway—even when that step makes sense to nobody but you.  I know that’s not easy.  But making a bold move is the only way to truly advance toward the grandest vision the universe has for you.”

Now the question is:  Have we opened our hearts to the “grandest vision” the universe has for us?  Many have not taken this into consideration.  What’s more, we will discover in our journey of growth and true self-realization that our hopes and dreams are but a small glimpse of the vision the universe has for us.  We have infinite creative potential and the “grandest vision” the universe has for us presents us with avenues called provision to use as much of this infinite creative potential we desire to manifest great things and even greater things. 

With this provision, the universe acknowledges the desire to do something that matters is in all of us. But we must be ready for it. 

And how can we get ready for it?  We get ready for it by first allowing the Creative Spirit to reveal the “grandest vision to us.”  It takes meditation, prayer, visualization, and consistent right action to be able to catch this vision.  Once we catch this vision, it will take more spiritual work to hold fast to this vision.   

After we have held fast to the vision, to actualize this vision in our lives, there is always an opportunity for a bold move.  I say, opportunity because it is just that an opportunity and success happens when opportunity meets preparation. 

Consequently, this is when we have to muster the courage to trust our inner being and step out on this bold move.  It is then we will realize that the spiritual work–meditation, affirmative prayer, discipline, visualization, and right action—was not done to make something happen but to prepare us to do something that only we may understand.   

This is the way of the Visionary.  The Visionary looks for an opportunity to make a bold move that will actualize the grandest vision.  Life is filled with these opportunities to make a bold move, but we have to be prepared and we have to be courageous.  Each time we make a bold move, we exercise the muscles of our faith and realize more of our true and authentic self.  We are not limited…at least, that’s not the vision the universe has of us.

I am pretty sure you have heard the expression “get a life.”  Well, you have one.  What are you doing with it?  Are you seeing the things you truly desire manifest and actualize in your reality or are you waiting on something or someone or some place?  Well, while you are waiting for it, her, or him, life is waiting for you to live it. 

When you really get how this thing call life works, you realize you really are in the center of it all.  Good must be expressed through you in order for you to experience it.  Inspiration must be expressed through you in order for you to experience it.  Creativity must be expressed though you in order for you to experience it.   Life must be expressed through you in order for you to experience it. 

Too many of us have postponed living waiting for some grand event or waiting to get to some destination.  Your life is a journey and if you are not co-creating your life and allowing yourself to live your life, then you will never fulfill your destiny because destiny itself is a journey.

As artist, particularly, we hold on to brilliant ideas, artistic expressions, or inspiring works of art and postpone expressing our work because we are waiting for something.  Perhaps, its that big contract or maybe it’s a large sum of money or that big move to another country.  Whatever it is, it limits our living. What are you waiting for?  When in reality, “it” whatever “it” is, it’s waiting for you.  It is waiting for you to show up in your own life so you can receive “it” or manifest “it.”

We are creative and divine beings and our lives don’t have to be limited.  It’s only the limits we place on our life that actually causes limitations. 

If we live free of limitation, we are living according to the Tao.  As it is written in the Tao Te Ching:

“The Way is a limitless vessel;

Used by the self, it is not filled by the world;

It cannot be cut, knotted, dimmed or stilled;” 

Our lives can take us to great and wonderful places if we allow ourselves to become that limitless vessel and a limitless vessel is a Willing Vessel—a vessel which allows the Spirit to move through you so that you can become more of your true and authentic self.  Becoming more of our true and authentic self is what makes us happy and happiness is the purpose of life and living.  When we limit ourselves and limit the flow of life through us, ultimately, we are making ourselves unhappy. 

Peace, happiness, joy, creativity, and all that is good can abide in us and in our lives when we live it and live it without limits.  Life is waiting for you to live it.  Are you ready? If you are ready, then start by putting the life back in your living.

compensated,” but it aligns with universal laws and principles.  Yes, everything in the universe must compensate because our universe is abundant—meaning our universe operates in continual affluence or continuous, unstoppable flow.  That flow is obliged to compensate according to the Universal Law of Abundance, the Universal Law of Rhythm, and the Universal Law of Compensation.  The Universal Law of Rhythm contends that the pendulum swings both ways.  As it states in the Kybalion:

“Everything flows out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right, is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates.”

What can prevent compensation is our deprecating beliefs and expectations.  Our deprecating belief about “how hard we must work to deserve compensation” emits a vibration which affects what we manifest. If we cannot meet our own expectations about “how hard” we need to work to deserve a creative and rewarding life, then we emit a vibration of “I don’t deserve it until I do this…”  Accordingly we have swung our pendulum to manifest a creative and rewarding life only when we meet that expectation.  This is why it is said that energy follows thought and expectations are a type of thought form.

Energy follows this “thought form” expectation and in alignment with this expectation we limit our ability to manifest what we truly desire in our life.  Limited is no way to live.

What we must realize in order to truly align with the Law of Abundance, Rhythm, Vibration, and Compensation is  to claim our divine right to live in abundance.  As such, this abundance requires compensation.  Therefore, if you are using your creativity, your gifts and talents, and your potential to inspire others, then you deserve to live a creative and rewarding life.  You deserve to live a creative and rewarding life because you are aligned with abundance.

So as we are using conscious creativity expect compensation, reward, more creative flow, and prosperity, this is all a part of abundance.  Don’t put a bunch of stipulations between you and affluence.  It’s your divine right.  Claim it.  Live it.

I believe that a growing number of artists now realize that in this day and age one must develop in his or her entrepreneurial skills in order to assure that one’s creative work reaches his or her audience.  Many artists now realize that in order to maintain a livelihood from their artistic expression, these entrepreneurial skills must continuously be developed.  And as these skills are developed, the artist is required to practice patience and focus.

Just as we must exercise patience and focus when we are developing as co-creators on the path of enlightenment, we must be patient and focused as we develop in our creative work and business.  Every day and in every way we must be dedicated to doing what it takes to actualize our vision in our artistic work as well as our lives.  We have to be dedicated if we want to derive a livelihood from our creative work as artists and entrepreneurs.

When we talk about deriving a livelihood from our creative work, the mantra has become a mantra, “Do what you love and the money will follow.”  Yet, when we get down to it, sometimes we have to do some things we don’t like so much in order to fulfill that which we do love and again that requires patience and focus.

For example, some people may not like checking their emails three times a day, but if he or she is selling their own custom design art on wall scrolls via the internet, then in order to fulfill those orders, emails must be checked three times a day.  Yes, you may love putting your beautiful custom art on wall scrolls, but without checking your email you wouldn’t know if you’ve received any orders. 

Hence, with patience we find that we can deal with little dislikes and pet-peeves because we have our eye on the vision. The vision becomes more important than those little things we detest.  When we grow on the path of enlightenment and use conscious creativity as an artist, entrepreneur, and co-creator, we find that it’s not so much “doing what you love” as it is “focusing on what you love.” 

That’s right, focus on what you love and the money will follow.  Your development as an artist, entrepreneur, and co-creator will always require you to do some things you don’t like, but if you focus on what you love, your ability to create a livelihood from what you love flows naturally and easily.  Your ability to create a livelihood from what you love flows easily and naturally because you are operating according to the Law of Abundance.  To live in abundance, you must focus on your vision and cultivate that vision through affirmative prayer, meditation, creative visualization, discipline, and right action.  And all of this requires patience and focus. 

Honestly, as artists, entrepreneurs, and yes, co-creators we will never be the happiness we are search for until we are actualizing our vision of purpose in life.  Until we are living our vision, we don’t feel that sense of fulfillment.  Instead, we feel something is missing or something is unfinished in our lives. 

We all deserve to live our best life and that best springs forth when practice patience as we develop our skills and focus on what we love.  Life is always becoming and so are we.  As we express what is in our heart and actualize our vision, then we are becoming more of who we really are—more of our true and authentic self.  That authenticity exudes and radiates from our creative work and inspires others to be an inspiration.

My favorite quote from the Dalai Lama so far (and I do mean so far because the Dalai Lama has plenty more wisdom to share) is…

“The purpose of our lives is to be happy.”  Looking at this quote and meditating on it brings me to a place of peace and appreciation that my life is about me being happy.  I rejoice in knowing that my purpose is so simple.  My purpose is happiness.

 It is quite simple, isn’t it?  Then, in my head, I hear the lyrics from Lauren Hill’s Ex factor pumping out the beat when she sings…

“It can all be so simple…but you rather make it hard.”

We love our complicated-happy as human beings.  Simple-happy, we don’t want that, oh no.  We want happiness that is the product of blood sweat and tears.  We want happy through complicated layers of all of our stuff and pain and agony. 

Why can’t we enjoy simple-happy? We can’t enjoy simple-happiness because we won’t allow ourselves. We won’t allow ourselves to attract and manifest simple-happiness in our lives because we have been conditioned to believe that if we have not achieved happiness without some struggle, then we are unworthy of it. 

In fact, we have become so attached to our complicated-happiness we find ourselves using it as our “testimony” while we share war wounds with our friends and loved ones.  Why is it so hard to believe that we are meant to be happiness?  Yes, be happiness!

Some among us have pursued and chased happiness for so long that we really don’t know what would “make us happy.”  Happiness is a state of being.  It is never something we can chase or pursue. 

Think about it for a moment, to chase or pursue something means to “trail it,” which means that you will always be behind it.  Whatever you chase or pursue is always out of your reach.  It’s no different with happiness.  Either you are in a state of being happiness or you are not.  You can’t catch it. 

Even when in grief, you can still be happy.  Happiness is what we call “well-being.”  In fact, when someone is in “well-being” that person is in a state of weal.  Weal is the root word for “wealth.”  Just as heal is the root word for Health.   With an understanding of this wisdom, one can see that complicated-happiness can lead to complicated-wealth. 

It should not be a surprise to us that if we are so attached to complicated-happiness, it would lead to complicated-wealth.  When you get into the habit of chasing things and making things difficult, it has a way of taking over your life.  How?  Again, it is those feelings of unworthiness. 

When we practice true self-love and build a sense of self-worth through self-acceptance, then and only then can we appreciate simple-happiness.  Good things come into our lives and we don’t feel the need to complicated it or stir in the drama in order to appreciate it.  Appreciate, yes, appreciate!  Appreciation means to increase in value or worth and as you increase in self-worth, you will find that you will also increase in wealth.  It’s just that simple.

Erotic Futuristic RomanceThe story of Mecca Ayashe Symonds has been in my heart for quite some time now.  You are just getting the opportunity to meet her here at Blue Lotus Living. 

Many of you who have been keeping up with  Roslyn, Blue Lotus Living, and me know that Roslyn and I are artists and writers with a vision and we support all artists who have a vision.  We write everything.  We can’t stop ourselves.  And we love to perform spoken word poetry, prose, and monologues.

The path of enlightenment, love, and abundance has made us better artists while expressing our creativity has allowed us to better understand that which spirit and divine. 

So what’s up Carmellita?  What’s up with the erotic futuristic romance?  Well, I am an artist and as an artist you let the creativity flow.  Sex is not a bad thing and it is an important part of the storyline.  It’s not sex just for sex here.  Eroticism, when it is done with artistic expression, demonstrates the beauty and power of love-making.  It is absolutely divine. 

I won’t give away too much about what the first installment of the Mecca series, Hallowed Be Thy Name, is about.  However, here’s the Jacket below and temporary cover above.

Hallowed Be Thy Name ( Mecca Series Book 1)  By Carmellita Michelle Brown

Earth has a new heroine and nothing in the universe can stop her…not even “Them.” An Erotic Futuristic Romance with twists and turns through time. Hallowed Be Thy Name is the first book in the Mecca Series…The year is 2022 and Mecca has been commanded by the Council of Elders to return to Earth 2011 in the third dimension a time when she was known as Myra Porter. Mecca has been instructed by the Elders that it is time to get her message to the others and Jai, the man she left behind. But in order to get her message to them in secret, she must make a journey that will test her strength and ultimately reveal secrets about her life and mission that some including the man she loves would rather stay buried. Can she save humanity and hold on to the one she loves?

I truly hope you love Mecca as much as I have grown to love her.  I welcome any critiques you may have.  I am not much for criticism.  Love you all, Carmellita.

Chapter Two – Yearning

An hour, I think to myself, wow.  An hour is so short here in 2011.  I learned during my training that the manipulation of time which took place in 1946 is the result of time “flying by.”  “They took the tock away from the tick,” the teachers told us.   I still think it quite radical.  

 It is an adjustment for me to be back here.  “And whoa, I can’t believe I am back here,” I say aloud.

“Just yesterday I was meditating and creating cities and today I’m…well, I suppose I can’t call it yesterday,” I realize I am talking to myself aloud.  “Some habits do resurface,” I giggle to myself. 

I quiet my thoughts again as Zineb prepares me for my journey to Eidos.  But little by little I find myself yearning for my home.  I know I will return but, I feel a yearning to be there.

My home was in 2022.  In 2022 Earth is quite different, time is different, much slower, people age much slower, our bodies are much lighter, and there isn’t the feeling that you are rushed to do something or even be something.  It’s funny. With time being so much slower, people seem to procrastinate a lot less.  Everything is so purposeful back home. “Back home,” I can’t believe I’m saying that.  I murmur to myself. 

New Earth, as it is referred to in 2022 is now being called by its original name Gi.  New Earth began its formation after the first shift which took place on December 21, 2012.  The first shift freaked out so many people when “They” revealed themselves to the world as their masters hid behind human disguises.   “They” were the Greys and their masters were the The Luciferian Sons who believed Earth belonged to them and that Humans were meant to be their slaves. 

Since most of Earth’s history had been lost, many Humans are still confused by where “They” came from.  All we have ever known is that “They”, the Greys were an android race being controlled by the Luciferian Sons.  According to many of our Teachers, the Greys had studied humanity for many millennia.  The Greys reported back to the Luciferian Sons the secrets to control humanity.  We later learned that “They” believed the easiest way to control humanity is through politics, science, and religion.  And so “They” did.  False doctrines which distracted humanity from its oneness and its connection to the One had divided humanity for over 6,000 years. 

We, the Benevolent 11, had discovered the Greys greatest fear.  The Greys and their masters feared the oneness of humanity.  They knew that if human consciousness rose any higher in frequency, that Earth would enter into the 5th dimension creating a New Earth where They could no longer enter the atmosphere. 

With much bravery and the banding of humanity into the Confederacy of Humans, Earth entered the fifth dimension thirteen weeks after the first shift.  New Earth, Gi revealed the beauty of humanity.  Yes, we all were one on New Earth, Gi.  As I yearned for that bliss, I found myself recalling the events that lead me back to 2011….

*******************

On the day I learned I would be returning to 2011, we were concentrating on our work.  That work included building the cities of Gi through a process called releasing the mercurial spirit.  It was very important work.  For we knew that the second trip of humans were due to arrive.  The city of New Luxor was beginning to be quite beautiful when we felt some disturbing interference and some things were being distorted and some even deformed.

The elation and ecstasy we were feeling was diminishing and a slight feeling of panic began to arise.   Suddenly, Holland, one of the gatekeepers in New Luxor stopped me in the middle of releasing the mercurial spirit to create vegetation on the eastern side of the city.  He stopped me to inform me that the Council of Elders wanted to speak with me. 

I postponed my work in respect to the Elders and I headed towards the Dome where we often met with the Elders.  Before I was halfway there, I saw Neheti, The Philosopher, the eldest of the Elders  descending from the Sun so rapidly I barely had time to react.  The Elders had sent Neheti to give me a message.  I knew it had to be important if Neheti himself had come. 

It was common practice for us to talk to the Elders inside the Chamber Without Walls, but today, Neheti had visited me in the flesh, so to speak–as much of in the flesh as we were here in the 5th dimension.   Standing in a light blue robe with long white dreadlocks, bronze skin, and grey eyes that seem to look straight through me, Neheti materialized right in front of me. 

I bowed immediately, “Hotep, Wise One, it is an honor to be before you.  To what do I owe this most blessed encounter,” I said head still bowed showing respect and reverence to one who embodied millennia of wisdom and knowledge. 

“Raise your head up Mecca, you have done well.  It is not what I can do for you on this occasion but what you must do for us and for your people,” he said with a voice that sounded like thousands of voices in one. 

I raised my head and my eyes to meet his. As I met his stern focus I found myself looking into eyes that appeared as eternal as the universe itself.  “Something is wrong, isn’t it?  I can feel it.”  I said before Neheti could respond.

“Yes. It is,” Neheti responded in such a definite way that I dared not doubt him.  “I will not entertain you with any rhetoric.  The BIOS of the motherboard has been infected by a virus and it is slowly multiplying as we speak.”

I paused for a moment to process what I had just heard. “With all due respect, what can I do? Has the Programmer been unable to rectify the problem?”  I asked confused.

“The programmer has run all scans and one virus was quarantine, but  another virus has already corrupted several programs pertinent to the creation of Gi,” Neheti stated. 

Feeling the weight of the situation I tried to scan my consciousness for any solutions I may have had for this problem.  I could not think of one and the one I did think about, seemed impossible.  “In this case, the only thing one could do is a system restore but…”

“This is correct.  System restore is our most viable option.” Neheti said definitely.

“But…” I began in confusion.

“But how far do we go back? Does the Programmer have all the files backed up to this point? Don’t you think we have asked these same questions among ourselves?”  I could hear the disappointment in his tone.

“Certainly, you have Old Wise One, I mean no disrespect,” I said apologetically.

“Well done,” Neheti returned lovingly. “We must restore the system back to 2011 and only 11 of you have completed backups which reach this far back.

Never had anything been so confusing. I stammered to find words to explain my confusion.

“You see, programs are being affected now. Do you feel your complacency rising and your feelings of attachment?  Neheti asked.

“Yes I do.” I said finally realizing what I was feeling.

Then a sudden moment of clarity struck me. “You have to send someone into the system to upload the backup don’t you?  And you have chosen me, right? You have chosen me because of my gift and because of where I was in 2011.”

“The vote is unanimous.  We have called you Mecca,” Neheti confirmed my perception. “There is one more reason why you have been called for this mission.  A reason for which you are not aware and that reason is Jai.”

I could feel sadness about to rise in me.  I tried to find my bliss but it was very difficult.  Jai had been the only man I ever loved in that way.  Even here on New Earth I thought about him from time to time, but Jai chose a different path.  He chose not to forgive me and married someone else. 

I shook off the memories of Jai and turned my attention to the matter at hand.  “Wise One, I have never gone back in time. My gift has only allowed me to leap in the future when I have made contact with someone’s possessions, someone who is in extreme distress–someone important to the human agenda.” At that moment I dared not speak of Jai.  It was too painful.

“You have many more gifts Mecca.  Gifts you still have not realized, but yes, you are the one who can hold the memory of the future and tell your story to the others.” Neheti confirmed. “And because of where you are in 2011.  You have been called.”

Where was I  in 2011?  I thought with shame arising in my belly.  I was in a comma as it was called in 2011.  Since that time, I had learned that I was trapped in the in between.  No wonder I had been chosen.  If I am in a comma, I didn’t have to worry about me running into myself, disturbing my present, or getting too close to my own energy fields.   

Running into myself, boy I sound crazier by the minute, I thought. 

Yeah, I was in a comma in 2011 and had I not been rescued by a Neter who saw great potential in me, I probably would have still been there.  Isis had defied the Neteru and used her power to save me.  However my nine months in a comma and time in the in between was not without loss and pain.  It was during this time I lost Jai to her.

Finally, I found the courage to ask, “What does Jai have to do with this?”

“I am sorry to inform you Mecca.  Jai is not among the Souls who make the second trip here to Gi, the souls who will inhabit the city of New Luxor.   The Programmer has been unable to detect him for some time.  There is no record of him.  His name disappeared from the LIFE program on December 11, 2012.” Neheti said with concern.

“That could only mean that his soul is lost if the Programmer cannot detect him?” Suddenly all the complacency I felt disappeared and my attachment to Gi diminished.  I had no doubts that Gi will be.  Now my concern was Jai and the others. 

What has happened? I wondered.

“Now Mecca, you say we have chosen you, but we all say we have called you.  You are not chosen until you have chosen. Your mission is as simple as it can be explained.  You must return to 2011 as Myra Porter and tell your story to all the Benevolent Eleven.  The programmer will show you how to utilize your Oracle and she will guide you as need be.  This is all we can share at this time.”

“But what about Jai?” I heard the desperation in my voice.

“Get your message to him and Jai will certainly be set free,” Neheti said as he rapidly ascended into the sky and disappeared into the sun.

“Set free…what?” I asked in confusion.  But my question was only heard by the wind.

We had already created and manifested the Dome in New Luxor.  It was in material form furnished with all the technology needed to maintain oneness on Gi.  The Dome was where the Programmer resided.  We always received new instructions from the Programmer on every task and new technology created.  For protection of Its intelligence, the Programmer never left the Dome. 

The Programmer itself was a hybrid, an Android-Human with one tenth Reptilian blood and a human brain.  It had no sex.  It was pale green and yellowish in color with eyes the same color.  It had no emotions, but It was well versed in all technology which governed the Cosmos.  After the first shift, the Chief of the Dogon tribe invented the Programmer before he ascended and left with the Mother Ship.  It is believed by many including our Teachers that he, the unnamed chief, “was taken away by the Mother Ship with the remaining 48 members of his tribe to the Sirius Star System to precursor our creation process on Gi.”

I entered the halls of the Dome and before I could enter the Programmer’s office, the glass door, which separated the Dwelling Place many of us used for meditation, from the Programmer’s office, closed shut.  I was met with the Programmer’s voice asking me the most pertinent question of my mission.  “Do you choose to return to Earth 2011 as Myra Porter before the first Shift?”

“Yes.  I have chosen this mission,” the glass slid open slowly.  After so much time here on Gi, I was use to such protocols. 

On the other side of the glass sat the Programmer behind the mainframe computer.  There I could see a projection of Gi on the screen.  It was horrifying as I watched Gi slowly eroding second by second.  I watched as all we were creating was disappearing before my eyes slowly but surely. 

I looked at the Programmer who watched the images without emotion. It turned and looked at me with no urgency.  “There are four trainings you will have to undergo.  The most important is how to erect the Chamber Without Walls in the Third Dimension.  The second training will show you how to use your gifts as weapons without emitting fear or excitement in order not to over stimulate the Sympathetic Nervous System which will resort in a fight or flight response and cause you to abort your mission before completion.  The third training will show you how to use remote viewing in the third dimension which will be of great importance as your Oracle further prepares you.  The last training will show you how to travel back in time with your memories, your physical body in material form, and with this training you will learn how to return to Gi after your mission is complete.”

“Okay,” I said realizing that the Programmer did not need a response from me.

“Here, drink,” the Programmer said as It handed me a glass of pure chlorophyll.  Drinking chlorophyll was another protocol.   We were required to drink chlorophyll before training because it alkalized the body and kept us charged as the Programmer uploaded training programs to our cerebrum. 

“You are now ready to be uploaded,” the Programmer said as It retrieved the cylinder from the cabinet drawer.  “These programs were prepared before the virus corrupted the BIOS of the motherboard.  You will not experience dis-ease.”

I sat in the chair we often sat in when trainings were uploaded into our cerebrum.  The programmer adjusted the seat in the reclining position.   Lying back in as comfortable position as I could find, the Programmer gently inserted the cylinder into my left nostril and then clicked the red button.  It felt like warm liquid was being poured in my head.  I felt ecstasy and bliss.  The high of being uploaded was stronger than any drug known to man.   “Now release a memory to stimulate the Parasympathetic Nervous System,” the Programmer instructed me.

Before I could control the process I leaped into a lucid memory of Jai and me.  I felt Jai’s warm, strong hand massaging the inside of my thighs as he took my breath with his deep, eager kisses.  I recognized the memory and did not want to let it go.  Although I’d known Jai for two years in college, this was our second date.  It was our second date and I’d sneaked him into my dorm room pass my Resident Assistant to finish what we had started in his car. 

I’d never felt so uninhibited.  At that moment of ecstasy, I was willing to do anything.  I was willing to take this make-out session as far as he wanted to go. If he wanted me, he could have had me, all of me.  His hand shook revealing his nervousness as he lifted it from my thighs to slide it under my shirt.  The same care he had given to the warm place between my thighs was now being given to my breasts.  I could hear him moan as his kisses deepened. 

I didn’t know at what point my skirt had been pull down to me knees, my blouse had been abandoned on the floor, and my bra  and panties were goodness knows where, but I didn’t care.  I lay on the bed with breast completely exposed overcome by desire.  Lost in a haze of exhilaration, passion, and shamelessness, I watched fervently as he unzipped his pants and slipped the condom on his beautiful scepter.  I was overwhelmed by his erection and the pleasure I knew it would give me.  I kicked my skirt on the floor and pulled Jai’s pants down lower on his thighs.  I wanted him right then in there.  I wanted him inside me, filling me. 

For a moment, Jai denied me his manhood.  He lowered his head and kissed me slowly as his hand massaged my warm places in circler motions that drove me wild.  “You feel so good,” he whispered between my lips.

I took his condom protected manhood into my hands and gently massaged it while I kissed him ravenously. Without abandon, I let my ecstasy take me where my mind could not conceive as I whispered back, “I’m not afraid. I want you, Jai.”

With his scepter in hand revealing his desire, Jai parted my thighs and looked deep into my eyes letting me know that there was no turning back now.  When Jai entered me, it was as if it were where he belonged.  My hips rose up to meet his first thrust and I cried out in pleasure and pain.  It was my first taste of love-making and I was electrified by the ripples of succulence and aching desire that tortured my senses.  To muffle my cries of passion, I buried my face into Jai’s shoulder blade.  Jai gripped my bottom with both his hands as my hips continued to move in rhythm with his thrusts.  His grip tightened as my legs clamped around his waist.  “You feel that baby,” he whispered with each thrust.

“Yes.” I whispered into the thick cloud of raw passion we were creating with our love-making.

“You like that baby.” He whispered guiding my orgasm into higher peaks.

“Yesss,” was all I could manage to whisper back.

Our bodies betrayed us as we ascended to a tempo neither one of us could control.  Higher and higher the tempo escalated into an uncontainable pulse that begged for release.  Unable to restrain our desire and bliss, we were its willing victims.  In that moment, we climaxed simultaneously.  Our naked bodies held on to each other unwilling to let go of something so beautiful and loving.  “I love you Myra,”  Jai whispered into my ear. “I always have.”    

As desperate as I was to hold on to this memory, my mind faded to black and for five seconds I couldn’t see or feel anything.  All I heard was my breath.  Finally, light shined into my eyes and I was lying on floor of the old hacienda holding a satchel in hand.

Chapter 1:  The Return

     Standing outside on the terrace of the old hacienda, a breeze passes across my face. Nature is awake and so am I.  I look to the sun rising above the distant mountains.  It is a quiet morning.  I have returned and nothing seems the same.  Beautiful indeed, but nothing is really the same.

     I have seen so much and what I now know in my heart and in my mind exceed everything that is before me.  Nothing is the same because nothing is what it seems.  Here everything was different. 

     Staring at the horizon, it felt as if the clouds held a secret.  A secret about how things really are here.  The clouds above the mountain look like fluffy pillows for weary angels, but they are simply mist—vapors.  And this is exactly what I could expect from earth.  I could expect things not to be as they appear.

     Now, I know what I must do.  I can’t say it will be easy.

     I didn’t think I was ready to tell my story but here I am about to bear my soul.  However, after the events of last night, the Council of Elders sent word to me that They say it is time.   My heart concurs.   My mind, well, it is filled with questions, doubts, and fears but I have learned how the mind can play tricks on you if you are not careful. 

     Have I completely mastered the mind?  Some will say yes and I would say not quite but I’m getting there.   I will say that I am a bit unnerved by the unknown.  I will also say I will not let fear stop me.

     I take a deep breath and look out at the beautiful valley.  It is so beautiful–so beautiful that it was almost intoxicating.  Realizing that I am procrastinating again, I step in from the terrace.  My mind tells me there is no point in prolonging the inevitable.  I have to tell my story to the others so they can be prepared for what is about to happen, really what is already happening.  Those days are soon to come and it will take immeasurable bravery for us to do what needs to be done.  I need them and they need me.

     Before I can begin to tell my story, I must contact Jai so that he might know what happened to me—to us.  I know he will be confused by it all.  I was too at first.

     I take a deep breath and picture Jai in my mind’s eye. I could see his innocent face so clearly, at least the way I remember it.  His strong jaw line and deep brown eyes always let me know how strong he is despite his innocence.  Strength is what we need.  Strength is what the entire human race would need now.  No more classism based on socio-economic status. Oh no.  The entire human race needs each other now. 

       With this certainty clearly on the forefront of my mind, I know I have to muster the words to explain to Jai and the others what has been happening to us and how we have been lead astray by them.  I take a deep breath and silently thank the Creator for saving us from definite doom.  Had we not found the Programmer to write the code for the Chamber Without Walls and discovered the passage which lead to the Crystal City, we would have stood and defended and fought fervently for the wrong side.  And yes, we would have destroyed our own people and our own destiny.

     It is no longer an argument for me.  Jai has to be told everything.  I know I have to be the one to tell him. 

     As always, I have to be very careful how I delivered my message to Jai.  I place the eight crystals in the shape of an octagon on the floor of the empty living room inside the old hacienda.   The crystals consist of one quartz, one diamond, two amethysts, two aventurines, one cat’s eye, and one dolomite.  I step inside the octagon wearing natural all black fibers and holding the chrysocolla crystal on my necklace while speaking words of power just as the Programmer had taught me.  

     The activation of the crystals sounds like a mixture of static and waves crashing in the ocean. In seconds, the sound slowly dissipates and the Chamber Without Walls emerge.  While the chamber reads my aura and essence to identify me I continue to speak my words of power.  Taking a deep breath and waiting with assuredness, a screen appears and the beautiful face of Zineb, my Oracle, comes to view.  As my joy intensifies her full physicality materializes before me.

     In full physical form, Zineb smiles at me. “Hello, Mecca Ayashe Symonds,” my Oracle recites my entire name.  “I am Zineb.  I am your Oracle.”  She emphasizes the word, your.   Before my return to earth, each of us had our own Oracle specifically assigned to our essence.   It had been mandatory for each of us to have a guide and comforter.  The Programmer specifically designed each oracle with the ability to read our essence and aura.

      “Hello Zineb, I am grateful for this time with you.  I wish to send a message to Jai.  Do you feel who I am talking about?” I pause to wait for her answer.

     “Yes, I do,” Zineb says.

     “It must be delivered in secret,” I say. “What must I do?”

     “You have infinite possibilities, but you have the frequency to match five choices Mecca Ayashe Symonds.  You may mail a letter to Dominic who will have good intentions to deliver your letter to Jai and risk interception by your enemies before delivery to Jai.  You may email a letter to Jai and wait 9 days before he reads his email, the letter will be altered by your enemies and it will be too late for your message to reach him.  You may visit Jai in his dream tonight and disturb his subconscious by which the end of the next day he will have two déjà vous encounters and will wait one day to meditate on it and his subconscious will create 14 synchronicities which will cause Jai to seek you for answers in 32 days.  You can wait until Jai develops telepathy in 19 days after training but he cannot do training until he gets your message and accepts his destiny, not a viable option.”

     I laugh at this one.

     “I make humor without intention,”  Zineb says.

     “Your most viable option is to tell your story to Jai as you tell the others and in the same method you will tell the others.  As your wisdom tells you, you must go to Eidos tonight as you sleep in the chamber.” Zineb said with conviction.

     Eidos, I hear her words but traveling to Eidos was not always my favorite thing to do.  However, in the two years I have been privilege to know Zineb, I have never questioned her foresight because her foresight was connected to my own soul.  It has always been truth.  I will not question her now.  She has never failed me.  “I accept the most viable option.”

     “Then, you must sleep inside the chamber tonight,”  Zineb informs me.  “You have one hour to prepare. She pauses and looks to her left and then looks back at me.  I know when Zineb looks to the left she is sensing my emotions and when she looks to the right she is reading my thoughts. “I sense discomfort in your essence, Mecca Ayashe Symonds.”

     “I have to tell my story to the others.  I am perplexed by my emotions.  I am also a bit….” I could not finish the statement.  I do not want to say afraid because that is not true. 

      “You are emitting the vibration of…” Zineb pauses for three to four seconds. “Shame…” she pauses again.  “You are ashamed of past deeds.  You must not be ashamed of past deeds you have a renewed essence now with a new name.  Your essence is now one with The One.  You no longer live in the bowels.  Your humanity has been restored.  Your soul is audible to you.”

      My joy and ecstasy returns immediately.  I do not want to feed my enemies’ strength with shame, shame that is no longer mine to carry.  I fully understand what Zineb meant when she said I no long “lived in the bowels.”  She meant the low places of my mind from which I am liberated. My purification has been quantified and computed by the Programmer who gave me complete access to my truth and who I am.  I am now convinced I am stronger than ever. 

     I decide with unwavering certainty to use my strength to get the message to Jai and just as importantly to tell my story to the others.  Why am I so determined to tell the others my story?  I am relentless because my story is their story.  The story of how the Benevolent Eleven came to be, how I was born Myra Porter and became Mecca, their leader.

Sex is an exchange of energy whether we want to acknowledge it or not.  It is an exchange of energy between two willing and consenting partners.  It sounds bold to say this, but when choosing your sexual partners, we must be clear with ourselves and ask, “Do I want to have an exchange of energy with this person?” 

For many years, those of us who have studied intensely in the fields of Metaphysics, Biology, Spirituality, Personal Development, and the like, have been conditioned to believe that during the act of sex, the male is the “giver” and the female is the “receiver.”  However after careful study, many have changed their perceptions in this school of thought. 

Intercourse means “exchange between people.”  Sex, itself, is intercourse, meaning that there is an exchanging of energy with both partners.  A woman receives and gives energy as well as a man receives and gives energy. 

Accordingly, one might ask, “What is sexual energy?”  Sexual energy can be defined by the Greek word “eros.” Eros is a type of love, it is physical love governed by passion, attraction, and desire.  But there is more.  The Greeks identified Eros as the god of Love. 

However,  Eros is the Ancient Egyptian equivalent to Horus or Heru.  Heru is the ancient Egyptian Neter representing the “Horizon”, “higher consciousness”, “the higher self”, “the hero”, or “mankind’s highest potential.”  Taking this wisdom into consideration, how does this relate to sexual energy? Both perspectives, Greek and Ancient Egyptian (Kemetic) give us an understanding of sexual energy.    

To get there, so to speak, let’s explore passion-attraction-desire perspective and the “highest potential.”  Passion, desire, and attraction define sexual energy while “highest potential” reveals what sexual energy can do.  Potential energy is formally defined as the energy difference between the energy of an object in a given position and its energy at a reference position.

Attraction itself is the drawing together of like energies while passion is a strong feeling which compels desire.  Consequently as we take a deeper and more profound look, we can see that “potential” is the “becoming” aspect of manifestation and creation.  Now attraction being the drawing together of like energies and passion being the strong emotion which compels desire…what does this tell us?

It demonstrates that sexual energy is the exchange (each partner drawing from the other and emitting to the other) the energy for “becoming” or the energy necessary to close the gap between our “given” position and our reference position.  In other words, when we have sex with a partner having the energy to join with our energy in closing that gap we get “charged.”  And as we are charged the manifestation and creation process goes from potentiality to actuality. 

Now, pay close attention, we are saying here “when you have sex with a partner having the energy” to join with your energy in closing this gap.  Often times, why we are not getting “charged with the energy for manifestation and creation” during sex because we have chosen sexual partners while in an ego state—partners who do not have the energy necessary to join with our energy in order to close the gap between potentiality and actuality. 

This happens because the ego will make choices according to its subconscious mental tendencies.  These subconscious mental tendencies have been adapted from previous relationships (romantic relationships, friendships, family, parental) as defense mechanisms or learned behaviors. 

An example would be one’s tendency to be attracted to loud, boisterous bullies because the person appears to exhibit confidence that one may lack in one’s self.  Another example would be a woman’s/man’s preference to a bad boy/girl over a “good” guy/girl because the bad boy/girl seems more exciting.  Meaning such women/men with this preference believe they need someone else to bring excitement into their lives and are drawn to those who exhibit bad behavior.

As we have learned, the ego is never in tuned with one’s highest good.  However, when we make choices as our True and Authentic Self, we find that we are able to intuitively sense the vibrational frequency of others.  And this benefits us well when we choose our sexual partners.   We choose partners we can “charge” and partners who can “charge” us with energy for the creation and manifestation of our vision or true desire. 

Now how does all of this apply to the Artist?  Artists need to create; it’s not an option.  The process of creativity relies heavily on potentiality transforming into actuality.  Without it, the Artist is left with Dark Matter—potential that is yet to be used.  This Dark matter can fill up the Artist and lead to feels of suppression which leads to depression. 

Artists and all who want to create or manifest anything must consider:  Is the sex I’m having charging me with the energy for manifestation and creation or am I just wasting energy for a fleeting orgasm that won’t charge either one of us for our highest good? 

We’ve all seen it or maybe we have experienced it…having a sexual partner that seems all wrong for us.  What happens?  It seems like things in life become difficult.  It seems as if you are drawing energies into your life that are working against what you truly desire to manifest in your reality instead of working with it.

Often times, this is what causes many artists, scientist, entrepreneurs, and visionaries to lose sight of their vision, some energy we have taken on from our sexual partner  has changed our vibrational frequency in such a way that we are unable to attract what is necessary to maintain focus on our vision.  This very thing is what we call “distraction” or “dis-attraction.”

 You see, what many of us have yet to realize is that sex is an intercourse (the exchange of energy) and because some kind of energy will be exchanged regardless of  whether  it is energy that will join with our energy for manifestation and creation or energy that will repel it.  So when we think it’s just sex; it was designed for so much more 

A sexual orgasm feels great for a reason.  A sexual orgasm feels good so that we would want to have sex and have an orgasm (so simple, we know).  It is spiritually prudent to have orgasms because it is designed to charge us as we give and receive energy with our partners.  However, it is hollow empty thing when on the other side of the orgasm you find that you have drawn the wrong kind of energy into your reality. 

So, as artists, it’s a good idea for us to use our intuition when choosing our sexual partners and it is wise to choose with our highest good and higher self in mind, body, and spirit.  We will find that the exchange between us and our sexual partners will be “love-making” and that love-making can create something so delicious we may create a masterpiece.

To be great, we must choose to be a part of the Great Work.  And what is the Great Work?  The Great work is dedicating our gifts, talents, and creativity to the conscious evolution of humanity. 

To accomplish this successfully, the artist as an entrepreneur must discover how to free the imprisoned spirit through conscious creativity.  With the practice of conscious creativity, as artist we will exhibit our greatness to the world.   Our gifts and talents will function as transforming substance with the power to change our inner world and affect our outer world.

In essence, no artist wants to be ineffective and an artist with the ability to affect his outer world is considered great indeed.  But before any effectiveness can take place, the artist must know his message and have a clear vision for that which he desires to create.

That message and that vision actualize when the artist frees the imprisoned spirit.  The artist as an entrepreneur must be brave.  He or she must be brave to face those unconscious aspects of his or her gifts.  The artist must move these unconscious aspects towards the light so that these gifts can grow and evolve toward expanded awareness.

Dwell in the light and release the spirit and naturally one’s creative work as an artist will be a part of the Great Work.  Moreover, the artist will find that his or her creative work will resonate with humanity because it will lend itself to some revelation about human nature and it will inspire the continuity of creativity.

As such, that same imprisoned spirit released in one artist will influence and inspire the release of the imprisoned spirit in the next artist.  This infectious process demonstrates how the “creator” and the “created” are intertwined in the process of becoming more.  Accordingly they co-arise in what has been co-created together. 

So, if you are wondering why, here at Bluelotusliving.com we emphasize the importance to Let the Spirit Move You, then you now know that we believe that together we can “become more” and co-arise in what we co-create together as artists.  No man is an island and the same is true for the artist.  Every artist needs inspiration.  Inspiration stirs up the gift and unleashes the talent that is in all of us. 

In fact, I would be bold enough to say that I know artists who can go days without food, but I don’t know any artist that can go a day without inspiration.  Inspiration is the pulse of imagination.  Without inspiration, the imagination slips into unconsciousness allow it to be influenced by any outside circumstance that may not serve the vision or message of the artist.

We see it all the time.  An artist loses his or her ability to inspire or be inspired and relies on outside circumstances to stimulate the imagination.  The work that is created by this stimulation seems soulless and unmoving.  It seems soulless and unmoving because the spirit has not been released but instead imprisoned by the artists disconnection with the co-creation process—the interconnectivity of the “creator” and the “created” by inspiration.

Greatness begins and continues to grow when the artist understands and creates with an appreciation of this interconnectivity.
