Interview with an Angel - Ariel (part 2)

This is probably the second or third time I picked up this book to re-read again.  While I was reading it, I remembered I had blogged about it before few years back.  I deliberately didn't want to read that old blog post until I have finished this round of re-reading.  :P

This time round, I found I picked up most insights towards the end of book, when Ariel talks about the Jesus Christ, Adam and Eve, and some other Biblical story and characters like Exodus, Cain and Abel.

The sharing from Ariel (these group of angelic beings from other realm) is again profound.  She will only share what is appropriate and suitable for human beings' understanding at that point in time, no more no less.  Nevertheless, she will still try to help us to fathom using the limited understanding and words we have now to describe the indescribable.  I particularly like that part when she explained who Jesus Christ was - a being who was in total communion with God, while incarnated in human form.  Jesus' love has achieved such a state that there is total forgiveness - where judgement does not play any part at all, thus there is nothing to judge.  That's the end state the human evolution is heading towards.

Forgiveness that results from the state of love through unity with God was the entire teaching.

Jesus' teachings are to be experienced, to be felt, not just to be read, therefore a lot of things were not written nor recorded, even recorded it was many years later and bound to have misses or inconsistencies (deliberate intent).  The emphasis on direct communication and direct experience really distinguishes the message from this book to others.  The metaphor (or real story?) of Eve and Adam left Eden - is to show the separateness mankind took onto separate from God, after having eaten the apple from the Tree of Knowledge.  Once the Ego has become separated from God (Good), and took on a different evolutionary path, it was where the hardship and suffering arise.  On one hand, the Ego is trying to protect mankind, on the other hand, it is drifting from the truth farther and farther.  The return of Eden is to know that truth (wisdom - which unlike knowledge can't be taught - is simply just knowing) - that we all come from Tree of Life, and have been blessed with the same life force that creates this universe, everything.  The lesser struggle we have, the easier we will be able to  adapt to the flow of life and the smoother our journey back home will be.  One way is to surrender and believe there is higher being (God) that will take care of everything.

The book talks a lot of opening our Heart, power of Prayer and Meditation - which has strike me times and times again.  Instead of searching outside (without), we shall be searching within - and we shall hear the tiny faint little voice that God or beings from other realms have been trying to communicate with us - but we were too busy or too scare (when fear kicks in after Ego has been bruised so badly).  I am going to remind myself to continue my prayer, meditation and spend time to cultivate the relationship with God.  After all, who else should I or can I turn to?  :)
