Dear Family
My ‘discovery’ of the existence of The Course only dates back to the beginning of 2023, as a result of the experience with the miraculous healing of my son Carlos, in December of the 22nd. In my old blog of July 11,2023-Testimonials, I wrote this:
Healing
I have often read about “near-death experiences” and seemingly miraculous healings. It is at least curious that I have had to live this type of experience not in my own flesh but in that of one of my children, but no less real. In fact, two days after the totally unexpected event, one of the doctors in charge indicated to us the need for the hospital to receive instructions from the family on how to proceed in the treatment of a patient in the conditions of our son and a main one was whether they should make “resuscitation” attempts. This confirmed the seriousness of the situation and in my desperation I did not hesitate to call my more than childhood friend, my real brother, Miguel Hernando González. Nowadays retired, but for many years thoracic surgeon in the Washington D.C. area and at his request. I sent him copies of the medical examinations and evaluations available up to that point. He prepared me to face the negative consequences that could be foreseen. In addition, he commented on how he thought the treatment should proceed; This helped greatly to reassure me that what the doctors at the hospital were ordering matched his instructions.
Within the indicated procedures, a stage was reached that in the hospital they call “tronation” which consists of placing the patient face down. In this position I could freely access his lungs and I decided to try a “laying on of hands”. In my ‘first steps’ as a “mystical healer”, with relative success, I have applied my own hands to any place that hurts me and prayed for healing. (At my age it is not if, or when, but where it hurts; therefore, the frequency has been high). My theory is that it is simply a transfer of energy and this goes for the scientific explanation, where the metaphysical core is where the energy comes from, of what type. and how it is transformed.
I proceeded to place a hand on each lung and immediately I could feel some activity in the left lung, but absolutely nothing in the other. I remembered clearly, then. that Miguel Hernando had told me that what worried him most was “the total collapse of the right lung”. Invoking all the energy possible, not so much mine, but that of all of you and that of all the people I knew were directing their prayers for this purpose and obviously that of the Almighty, I decided to place both hands on that lung and I prayed aloud, with all my fervor, to God to heal him and to Carlos to resist for a while longer. I had the opportunity to repeat this on a couple of more occasions.
A few days later I came into the room that Mono had, when one of the nurses who had treated him in the Emergency Department on his admission to the hospital, was coming out commenting: Who would have thought it? referring to its positive evolution. This was reaffirmed by several more nurses from this Emergency Unit who wanted to come and see him the day he was discharged, as if to verify that he was alive.
To conclude, I copy a paragraph from the message to my brother, when I sent him the final reports from the hospital: “Miguel H, your kind medical guide during the emergency undoubtedly contributed to our calm and although it seems impossible, to that of Mono. He tells me that he heard perfectly during his coma when I told him about my talks with you.”
And Miguel’s response: “I’m happy to see the almost complete improvement of the right lung and improvement in the left…….Congratulations!”
(It seems that, in my preoccupation with the right, I forgot to beg for the left? A clear example that one must be very careful when one asks the Lord for something!)
Everyone should draw their own conclusions, I only comply with giving my testimony. And let’s go to a third Testimony:
Miracles
Fueled by my curiosity, I explored further on this subject and I have found another treasure (analogous to that of the Law of One): A Course in Miracles. You can find out all the details in the annexes.(See P.S.) For my part, I am satisfied that Dr. Schucman did not act for economic reasons and therefore I decided to buy the book, which before the ‘cure’ would have been unlikely. despite its very reasonable price of eleven dollars; (I later found out that you can have all the information and read the book online, for free, at https://acim.org/acim/en/ .
The book is extensive and deep and I have barely had the opportunity to evaluate some of its notes, but enough to know that it can be a true manual for the spiritual life of all humans. Starting with Items 3 & 4 in the Introduction to the first chapter: (the parentheses are of my own).
“Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. The true miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense, everything that comes from love is a miracle.”
“All miracles mean life, and God is the Giver of life. His Voice will direct (you) very specifically. You will be told everything you need to know.”
(And my ego that thought that the “laying on of hands” had been invented by me!)
For now, I want to cite just one more observation, which has struck me: (Item 15):
“Every day should be dedicated to miracles. The purpose of time is to enable man to learn how to use it constructively. (Nowadays instead of man, we must say human, and if not, where are women and those of the ‘other team’?) Time is, therefore, a teaching tool and a means to an end. It will cease when it is no longer useful to facilitate learning.”
(The secret to the 90s and beyond: keep learning!)
I know that the enormity of the assertions contained in the book, (among other things, it claims to constitute the second coming of Jesus, which is in spiritual form, not physical like the first), have, and will remain, to raise doubts and fears about its origin and intentions. I just want to emphasize that the important thing is to focus on the message and not so much on the messengers and their methods of communication. The same has happened with the sacred books of all religions and with the Law of One. And I have to admit that in all of these there are very healthy messages of Love and Life.
As has happened with the Law of One, it is likely that later. I will continue to highlight aspects of the revelations contained in this book as I digest them.
So much for what I wrote then, with the observation that “Mono” is the affectionate family nickname for my son Carlos Javier. In keeping with my original plan to structure this New Blog as a chronological review of My Journey, I planned to include this much later, when its time came. As with the Law, the hand has indicated that The Course must also go now, at the beginning.
The reason is not only that the way my father’s spirit manifested is also a miracle because it has no logical scientific explanation. Now, scrutinizing my memory, I find that my first conscious memory is from when I was about 3 or 4 years old.
I was on a farm on the banks of a river, in a place called Bagazal. I remember looking at my reflection in the water of the river and submerging my face, breathing tranquility in a peaceful environment of light color, almost white. And I felt as if my consciousness was beginning to dissolve. Suddenly I felt a firm hand lift me out of the water and onto dry land. I was clearly drowning and some ‘older’ saved me in a timely manner.
The curious thing is that I only remember the sensation of a hand, there is no association with body or face. Evidently it was an experience of near death and in the flesh. At that time The Course was far from being ‘dictated’, but surely that is where my association with ‘the hand’ must come from.
Concatenation of “Blogs”
As we can see, the chronological review of My Journey continues to provide entirely new insights as it progresses. This confirms to me that I must continue it, but it also tells me that the most important thing is not to stop the progress made on the path of Returning Home
Therefore I think I must now concatenate the two blogs, the old and the new. The easiest way to do it is to reproduce a few paragraphs from my more recent ‘old’ blogs and then you will remember what kind of Returning we are talking about:
Blog 12/3/23………
The Epiphany I had when reading The Law of One and the different elucubrations exposed in these blogs together with “our” miracle of a year ago had already led me to form in my mind a complementation, which has been fully confirmed (and even understood), by having, this year, a second Epiphany, “A Course in Miracles”:
The Law of One-Self
In very simple terms: There is a single Entity, which has created the entire Universe and begotten, directly and through His sons and daughters, all the inhabitants. At a certain point in the process it was allowed to “veil” the knowledge of the divine origin and this has degenerated into denying the existence of God, causing a separation of the creature from its Creator. The quickest way to solve this problem is for each one to scrutinize within himself and realize the impossibility of a Universe without a Creator. to believe fervently in God, to experience His Love, and to propagate it according to His commandment…….
Blog 5/21/2024………
I have already told you that my renewed interest in Miracles (which I believe continue to happen to us), has led me to know about the existence of “A Course in Miracles” (hereinafter, the Course) and I have been in the process of digesting it. Well, digestion has been very slow because it is almost two thousand pages of thoughts (in reality it is not a book to read but to think about and above all to practice!) and this has been the reason for my new and prolonged silence. But the result is not a terrible indigestion (as many will be inclined to conclude?), thanks to the Pepto-bismol of the Law of One. (Now I’m done!).
Indeed, The Law of One (the Law) as we have already analyzed in these disjointed blogs, can lead to exploring the Ways of Love and the need to discover God within ourselves. (Hence my suggestion of the Law of One-Self.) And now I see that the Course complements and deciphers several of the teachings of the Law and most importantly, how to return to our Creator.
And what is this ‘returning’ thing?
I frequently watch an enjoyable program on Mexico’s Canal Once, entitled “Here we Had to Liver”; (no, it does not speak of the Law or the Course) but it is exactly what RA in the Law of One reveals to us about the inhabitants of this beautiful (in spite of us) Planet Earth and its vibrational Third Dimension. He reveals to us that the Creator of the planet decided to impose a ban on us at birth: to erase from our memory the fact that God is our Father (the Veil, which also extended to other parts of our galaxy). The objective: to force us to evolve faster by not being aware that Daddy is the Almighty. It turns out that, like with any pharmaceutical company, the ‘remedy’ for something can kill you for something else. In this case, the Father’s place was usurped by the Ego and it decided to Deny God and try to perpetuate itself in His place. And this is the original sin. No! God did not make us out of paradise, the Ego left by itself. Neither did God create hell; This does exist but it is precisely the result of the ‘administration’ of the usurper. (If you don’t believe me, notice how hell gets worse wherever there are dictators who usurp earthly ‘power’) And this is where the Course comes in to confirm what happened and offer the solution. It is salvation; which is nothing more than the Return Home.
(This is a hasty summary of my understanding, and I know it is difficult to comprehend, especially if you are not familiar with the Law, therefore, I will comment and deepen on it in future ‘episodes’, as well as comment on how the Course constitutes the true Plan and way of Salvation).
…………………………………………………..
Fourth perception: I am (we are) a Child of God.
In the next blog, I will go into detail about the sources that have (and are) being helping me in my pilgrimage and give the necessary credits and allow those who wish to do so, to go directly to them.
…………………………………………
I have set myself the goal of trying to explain publicly and free of charge, in the simplest terms I can find. my experience in the study of the Law and the Course and thus share in the Happiness that God has given me. As the Course mentions, giving and sharing is the path to true enrichment, that of Oneness of which, as its name indicates, we are all equally a part, together with God Who is Its Creator
In this purpose, I recognize, ask and thank the indispensable participation of the Holy Spirit, who as we will see, is the Communications Manager created by God specifically for these purposes. Here I must also renew my thanks to all of you, who in enduring my crazy metaphysical disquisitions, believe me that you have been the inspiration, the motive and the support to become a humble messenger of God……………………………
Up to here the “old” quotes……
Well, ‘the next blog’ has become the New Blog, (MiJornada1933), but with substantial modifications to what my brain had programmed, as we are seeing “live” as I advance in its writing. (Thank you Holy Spirit)
I feel now that speeding up the Return Home is what impels me to review My Journey, but mainly to give testimonies that illustrate and facilitate the way. And the way is shown to us by The Law and The Course. That’s why I need to temporarily pause the review and focus a little more on these revelations. I will proceed on this in the next “column” because today’s column already has too much to digest.
I love you all,
Alberto
