“Children will learn more by this method as words are not as important in this New Society. Looks and feelings and touch will be the new solutions in how to communicate so you must look through eyes of faith, faith in me, God and Life.
“Time travel is coming and is already here though not in the way humans perceive it. Teach to look without thought, look from the Spirit; ask to receive the gift of time travel or telepathy and it will be given to you and the world. Share this message of ‘the impossible does not exist’. Stop trying to create with the mind, because it has limitations. Ask for the most precious gifts, to see the unseen, to create from God and be a beacon which the world will listen to.
“Ask. Now.
“I want you to travel to a far-off land, and there you will find a gift of secret treasure. I want you to experience this gift and write about it. And then share it with the world. Go to Thailand for three weeks, discover the secret treasure here which will be much more than you have discovered already. I will guide you along your path and I will provide for you. Trust in me.”
Ethan was dumbfounded but the voice came back with a vengeance. It told him that he shouldn’t have been surprised, because he had asked and any time he asked a question he always got the answer.
So Ethan didn’t ask any more questions. He simply lay there on the floor and made the decision to go on the adventure.
And so the journey began…
Chapter 2 Levels of Consciousness
“Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.
As Ethan meditated, he began to relax very deeply. He stopped thinking and felt the fog beginning to lift from his mind. He could see clearly and feel deeply. When Ethan relaxed this deeply he always came upon his real deep, inner self. He found it hard to describe what happened as he meditated so deeply but he sensed a powerful force behind the feeling. The sense was of an inner knowingness that there was something keeping him alive, something which brought him into the world.
Now that this same force was communicating with him, he would often hear others speak of feeling inspired. He’d hear tales of how people experienced moments when they get a feeling, like a rush of endorphins, that seemed to indicate a deep inner knowingness that something was about to happen or that you were about to do something in life. Sometimes it happened when the telephone rang and the person on the other end of the phone was someone you’d just been thinking about.
Ethan came to know this inner voice as the deeper part of him, which he often referred to as ‘I’, his inner inspiration, that is often sheltered behind the locked door of thought.
Ethan recognised that a battle was beginning within him, a battle between two voices – the ‘I’ or inspiration and the ‘Me’ or Ego. The ‘I’ made him feel more alive than he’d ever felt before. He’d never taken drugs but imagined that no drug could top the natural ‘high’ which his ‘I’ gave him. But there was another voice within him, struggling to control him, which was a voice of fear, worry and doubt. This voice was the ‘Me’, his ego voice of the mind, which warned him against following his ‘I’ and left him feeling down.
Because Ethan trusted his inner ‘I’ voice so much, he decided to follow that voice. He believed that the ‘I’ voice would guide him along the best path, the most effortless path, in life. He believed that voice only wanted to give him the best possible things in life.
He knew it wasn’t logical to listen to a voice like that or to participate in an existence like that, but he trusted in that part of himself. In the past, any time Ethan trusted that part of himself he’d experienced the most wonderful miracles in his life and achieved the goals he set himself whether they were in the areas of finance, health, love or self-expression. He’d already experienced all of these beautiful things so he knew that this part of him was as real as his three beautiful children.
It was said, “by their fruits you shall know them.” And the fruits which are growing in your life, the fruits or results, let you know what you are doing in your life, the actions you are taking, are right actions.
Ethan’s life at present was a life of true fulfilment. He had never experienced so much joy in life not a boastful joy, but a quiet sense of knowing what life was all about. He felt he had arrived, and all because he trusted the ‘I’ part of himself.
He was a different person with his children and with his wife, Natalie. But it hadn’t always been this way and, at times, Ethan did slip back into listening to his ‘Me’ voice. This ego voice was the mind-made identification of what he was and was difficult to resist, but he found himself increasingly able to break away from the grip of this voice and find himself in his inner light, which some people call the Spirit. Everything in Ethan’s life completely changed and transformed as a result of his beginning to trust in his self.
But the journey that brought Ethan to that point on the side of the road in Thailand was a battle. His inspiration told him to do this and he’d said yes to the inspiration, which was trust and faith! But Ethan knew that, in life, that is what you have to do when you get to know inspiration within the ‘I’ part of you. When it begins to nudge you to do something and you don’t know how to do the thing you are being inspired to complete, you need to just say, “Yes, I don’t know how it’s going to happen but I’m going to do it”.
For Ethan, logically, this journey wasn’t going to happen for many reasons. But when inspiration flows through you, there’s no such thing as excuses, justifications or rationalisations, because you will be provided with everything you need at the right time to complete your journey. So Ethan simply said yes, he was prepared to go on this journey of self-discovery.
His story became really a metaphor for life and he wanted to share that story, convinced that when people read or heard about his experiences, they would begin to understand the feelings behind the words and would start to experience their own lives in a different way. They would understand there are different layers of living and experiencing life.
As Ethan arrived in Bangkok he could see how crowded and busy the airport was with thousands of people bustling about. He took a taxi to his hotel and, for the first time, saw how much traffic there was in Bangkok City. He had experienced many different parts of the world, from London to New York, from Paris to Rome, but this city was more crowded with traffic than any he’d seen before. It was unbelievable. People were beeping horns, zipping in and out of lanes on the freeway, or just driving up the middle of the road. It was like a stock car rally. He couldn’t understand how there weren’t more accidents here but, eventually, his taxi pulled up, intact, outside his hotel.
The hotel room was beautiful, a spacious penthouse suite and a good room to start a journey like this from. Ethan stepped out onto the 19th floor balcony of the Chatrium Hotel in downtown Bangkok. As he looked out, he could see the Bangkok River stretching off in two directions and he spotted new, trendy tower blocks rising up in the distance. In between the tower blocks he could see many small little buildings that looked like poor people’s homes. So many people housed per square meter. So many minds, housed per square meter, so much consciousness in such a small area.
