William Blake added this thought, saying that we left paradise following the serpent. This implies that we did not begin here on earth, but left paradise following the serpent who told us that when we embraced the great experience of good and evil we would be consumed in its fire and yet not die, but would rise from it. In his book, John tells it in another way as: “I came out from the Father and came into the world. Again I am leaving the world and returning to the Father.” So we did not begin here, but - coming out from the Father - we found these garments that seemed to begin in time, but really are an eternal part of the structure of the universe. Always appearing, occupied by God, moving towards a certain point and then disappearing.

This is paraphrased info from Neville Goddard. The part that really grabbed my attention, is the statement, (embrace the fire of experience.) My personal perception of the Earth experience used to be a tedious chore to be completed as quickly as possible, and then move on to something better, but my current understanding / perception - is to embrace the experience fully. While I've always enjoyed it to a certian degree, I'm certainly able to enjoy it more - now that I can see more clearly, and be more present in the experience at hand.

"This is paraphrased info from Neville Goddard. The part that really grabbed my attention, is the statement, (embrace the fire of experience.)" WOW!!! This did not "hit" me until a day or so later, when I began to realize that the greatest fulfillment comes from EMBRACING everything that happens to us. Now that word, alone, speaks volumes to me. No matter what we experience, we have created it......so just EMBRACE it. Or, another way of putting it would be to Love every experience.......what a way to LEARN. And, the more EMBRACING we do, the more joy-full this 3D experience is going to be and the more Love and laughter we will experience, which will be uplifting to the planet and other inhabitants.
So, thank you, Brother, for this quote.
For most of this incarnation, I've Truly felt like a "stranger in a strange land". Annnd.....it's not been fun for the most part. However, something in my consciousness shifted as 2010 entered (this actually started a little before 2010), but, I just keep feeling like I want to have fun....in-joy myself as much as possible. I see the "feeling" as very similar to what you said about embracing the experience FULLY. I really like that....thanks for sharing, Peekay.
