When we experience truth in the world, in many ways, it is an evolutionary experience. We are constantly deepening our experience of Truth, our experience of Oneness, our experience of Love, understanding, compassion, and what's important are those "qualities." Those are the qualities that the Voice for God within us teaches us about. God's Voice, by whatever name you call this Presence of Love and Peace within you, teaches us about love, compassion, understanding, acceptance, and truth. God can only speak to us "where we are," what we're capable of learning right here, right now. God could give the same truth to each and every one of us, and yet we are each going to take in exactly what we're capable of taking in right now that makes sense to us, that feels real, accurate, and valid.
This is an important concept in hearing God's Voice within you because it will help you stop comparing WHAT you hear and HOW you hear to anyone else, because we each need to hear what we need to hear in order to awaken. If twenty people were to ask God the same exact question, they would all hear something different. Each person has different life experience, different history, different belief systems, different culture, different background, and different language. Our minds are very unique, and when God speaks to us, He speaks to us through our particular mind, life experience, history, belief system, and vocabulary.
If you are a five-year old child, you're going to hear something completely different when you ask God a question about a particular situation than if you are possibly an atheist, a Buddhist, a scientist, someone living in Mongolia, or someone who comes from a very wealthy family. Because we're so unique in these ways, God is going to speak to each of us exactly where we are. What is it that we need to hear right here, right now in order to deepen our experience of Truth, Love and Peace? God will say something different to each of us, and that's the power of hearing God's Voice within you because you're not taking a concept of Truth that you read in a book or that someone else says to you and somehow figure out how to apply that Truth to your life. God will speak to you exactly where you are on a particular topic-right here, right now. That is powerful! That helps us each to deepen our understanding of Truth in our own way and at our own time. It's not taking an abstract concept and figuring out how to apply that concept or teaching to your life or somehow make it real. It gets made real right here and right now by hearing this Voice for Truth within you.
When we understand that there is no generic form that God's Voice expresses in, we can allow everybody to hear whatever they hear, even if it seems contradictory to what we hear. It's what that person needs to hear to awaken. You need to hear something different, and I need to hear something different. Sure there's going to be some commonality, and we may even hear exactly the same thing, but the point is, we each hear what we need to hear in this moment. When we can give that to our self and have that be okay, we are able to extend that to others and allow what they hear to be ok. What you hear doesn't need to match what this teacher, author, or minister says God's truth is.
I hope the messages we hear and share from God's Voice are helpful to people, and yet, you might hear something different. You will hear something unique to you, and that's what's important! It doesn't mean that someone is hearing God's Voice and someone isn't just because they hear different things. It's that each one heard God's Voice within them, and each heard what they needed to hear and how they needed to hear it.
When you give this to yourself, you'll stop comparing what you hear with what another person hears and you will be able to recognize God speaking to people in all kinds of ways, all over the world, non-stop. And it won't matter what it sounds like. You'll be able to see the Truth in it, and understand that each person gets what they need for their awakening and growth. This is what we call, "The evolution of Truth," hearing as much Truth as we are possibly able to receive in this moment, in exactly this form, on this topic, and that is perfect. We could ask the same question tomorrow and get a different answer or the same answer. We might ask the same question next year or ten years from now and get the same answer or a different answer. There are no rules. This moment is this moment. That's it. We will hear whatever we need to hear in whatever form we need to awaken.
Over the next few days, as you practice this concept, ask God's Voice, the Voice for Peace and Love within you, for guidance and allow yourself to receive whatever you receive and know that it doesn't have to sound like, mimic, or be anything like what you've ever heard before. If it is exactly what you've heard before, that is perfect as well. That is just what you need to hear.
For example, if you are a student of A Course in Miracles and your mind is formed with that vocabulary and that understanding, then what you hear will probably be very similar to that body of work. If you have a mindset of a Catholic priest, you're going to hear in that form. If you're a Buddhist, you're going to hear with that vocabulary and that belief system, and that is perfect. If you've never studied any practice or belief, then you're going to hear however you do and that's perfect. That's how hearing God's Voice works! Hear however you do and know that is perfect for you. Over the next few days, begin to recognize how other people hear and that what they hear is perfect for them. This will truly change the way you experience God's Voice within you and outside of you. Blessings to you.
Voice And Voice Therapy
Even though I could remember talking to God as a kid, when I was an adult and thought about talking to God, what came to my mind was: "Who are you to think that you can talk to God?" But the truth is, who am I not to? Who are YOU not to? When we think, "Who am I to talk to God?" we deny ourselves our Oneness with our Source. So even though the thought might arise, "who am I to think that I can talk to God?" it is just a thought. It's just something that arises when you entertain the thought of connecting with Source.
There are lots of thoughts that arise just like that: "Talking to God is impossible. Talking to God is something that only Holy people do. Talking to God is something that takes years and years of meditation, dedication, and isolation. One has to be in a monastery or be a priest or Pope to be able to talk to God." All of these thoughts are just distractions in the moment to keep you from connecting with your Source.
When you begin to think about talking to God and hearing His Voice, by whatever name you use, be it God's Voice, Holy Spirit, Voice for Love or Peace, Higher Self, True Self, Inner Wisdom, small still voice within, become aware of what thoughts arise. Notice what happens when you do that. If you become afraid at the thought of talking to God, that just means that a thought has arisen that caused you to become fearful. A fear thought could be as simple as, "I'll never be able to do that." It could be a thought that says, "I'm not worthy of talking to God. God would never talk to me." It could be, "Look at all the things that I have said and done. Why would God bother with me?"
When you notice what emotion arises when you think about talking to God, you can know that a thought, which we call emotion, has attached itself to that thought, and just allow yourself to become aware of what it is that arose in your mind that was this momentary distraction, because that's all it is. It's just the idea of "look over here," instead of going to God. Notice this instead of going to God. Solve this instead of going to God. But that thought is only a tiny, meaningless distraction. It's like a little flea that's nibbling away at you here and there, and all you have to do is see it for what it is. If you want to scratch the bites, that's fine, but don't let that become the focus of your reality. It's just a little bite. Scratch it and move on. That's all these thoughts are, just a little momentary distraction. Notice them for what they are and move on.
In your meditation practice, in your communication with God and God's Voice, allow yourself to become aware of what arises in your mind as you go within. Do your best to notice those thoughts, emotions, or beliefs as lovingly and kindly as you can. They are just thoughts that arise. They don't mean anything. They are not a reflection of you. They're just thoughts that arise, these little flea bites that distract you for a moment. When you notice them for what they really are and respond to them with truth, love, and kindness, you are free to continue to focus on your connection with God.
Let's say, for example, that you have the thought: "Who am I to think that I can talk to God?" You can then remember: "Oh yeah, who am I NOT to? It's my job to be connected with Source. That's my job. That's all God would ask of me. Who am I not to?"
Or you have the thought: "Why would God want to talk to me?" You can respond, "Because God created me and God only sees my perfection. God wants nothing more than to talk with me."
"I'm not worthy. I've done these things, said these things, or thought these things. I'm not worthy to talk to God," and you remind yourself, "God doesn't care. God just loves. God does not judge, God just loves."
Whatever thoughts arise, allow yourself to respond to them with Truth. You know the truth in your heart. You know that God only loves. So when you have the thought: "Oh, I've done these things or said these things. God will judge me," you can remember, "Actually, God doesn't judge. I am the only one judging me," and continue to move past that thought or move on from that bug bite. Allow yourself to continue to move in the direction of connecting with Source. It's as if you are maneuvering your way around these little distractions or obstacles, the little thoughts that arise, but you respond lovingly to them and remain on the pathway to Source.
There is nothing that can stop you from getting to God. There is nothing that can keep you from your Creator. Even if you're not sure how to respond with the truth to a thought that arises, just remind yourself, "Nothing can keep me from my Creator," and continue to move along on that path.
Since it is only a thought that can keep you from God, let yourself notice what thoughts have arisen in the past few minutes. Make note of the thoughts that sound familiar or the thoughts that have come to your mind and allow yourself in the next few days to continue to become more and more aware of what thoughts come up when you think about talking with God. Really look at each thought and allow a truthful response to each one to come to you so that you know no matter what thought arises, there is nothing that can keep you from your Source. Focus on this in the next few days and find out how much more connected you feel to God in doing so.
