Spirituality vs. Religion

By Marilyn L. Redmond

Currently, people are more aware of the expression spirituality. It can be easily confused with religion, However they are not the same. This article attempts to explain the differences. I attended a church for 50 years and never heard the word spirituality. I came to understand they are in opposition.

 Simply, spiritual is. It is the highest vibrations and frequencies of a beneficent energy force or coconsciousness that creates everything and is within everything. In meditation, you tap into this high energy of truth and love. This very high vibration is not visible to the naked eye. Therefore it has been discounted by many. Whereas, in religion you are listening to the dogma, doctrine, and belief system to which you are to adhere.

 Religion is from the realm of visible sight. In the material world, everything is observable with the naked eye. Science can measure it for size weight, or years, recreating the same results. Schools, religion, medicine, and culture continue to teach what you observe in the perceptible world as if that is the truth upon which to build.

Framing our knowledge in life on what is tangible or told to us from experts, authority, and powerfully rich has been unquestioned for years. Therefore, the agenda behind the surface continues to be accepted until now, Quantum Physics has brought a deeper insight to the origin and meaning of our beingness and origins. Truth is changing from what we have been taught or told for centuries to revealing an additional truthful explanation. The metaphors and language from ancient times are being explained in a new understanding. The old words and images were purposely used to deceive the people.  

Terms were invented to reframe the truth with judgment that blocks reality. People are programmed  to be fearful, unworthy, shameful, worried, powerless, helpless, and more. Language is used against us with meanings that are not truthful about our real heritage. People are awakening to these lies and manipulations that have become common to control the masses.

If people feel powerless, a lack, insecure, abandoned, or shameful then they can be taught to look outside themselves for a savior, superman, government, or medication to "fix" them. This is where religion, government, education, and later medicine got their power over the people. Mistakenly, people think their answers are from others. They will supply their needs. However, this makes the person a victim and dependant on something or someone external to save them. Creeds, rituals, and beliefs become the answer to those that buy into someone or something to have the answers, "fix", or rescue them. Now media, television, news, and organizations have bought into this deceit. It has become a full-blown propaganda to keep the people in a mental bondage where you are criticized for asking questions, having a different opinion, or finding a diverse perception.

For eons of years, this indoctrination has been a constant but a subtle way to form an oppressive civilization for the benefit of the privileged and rich. The goal to depopulate the planet for their benefit is the hidden agenda. Creating diversions, wars, and now bioweapons called vaccinations is about fewer people to control. The ultimate goal of the depopulation is to implant technology for programming those left to be subservient and benefit the prosperity of the rich. Ultimately, this would eliminate the God source within every person. Without the light of the Creator within only darkness is left. Evil is a lack of light.

Spirituality differs in the aspects listed above. Simply, spirituality is the source of love. Tesla said, "If you want to understand the universe it is energy, vibration, and frequency"   God is a label for this energy. Two thousand years ago, people did not understand energy or love and therefore the word God came to be a common word for this power or consciousness within everything, including human beings. . 

Originally, many sacred texts were left out of the Bible. The remaining manuscripts were rewritten several times to disempower the believers. Some truths were left to allow life. Love sustains life. The editing inserted what the followers were to think from the dogma and doctrines that are man-made. The pulpit cherry picks the dogma for sermons. For the most part people do not read the Bible with the truthful passages of each person being a child of a loving universe.

The word belief has the word "lie: in it and comes from ego thinking based in fear. With a small amount of truth along with false information, people were to depend on the church for their answers and salvation, Thus looking outside themselves for redemption rather than within their hearts, brought the ultimate fall of man. They were separated from their Creator.

With most religions, people can never be saved except by an outside means as a personal redeemer. This idea continued into having a hero including the government, education, medicine, etc. Looking for someone to liberate us has kept people victims and believing we are powerless over our own lives. The truth of our own authority and worthiness is missing and not told of our own inheritance. .

Accepting spirituality is not easy when trusting yourself is not acceptable if you are taught to trust someone else. It comes in stages of changing your perception to trusting yourself. To move from the false information into more and more truth can be shocking. However, the truth does set us free.

Many do not see themselves as a cherished person, created in love, from the programming of being a sinner, unworthy, and destined for hell subtly promoted for centuries,. Added to this the factor that ancestors extend their generational abuse and misinformation to the younger ones in the family. This lack of reality is passed on. We are waking up to this lack of truth. Living your own life rather than the family patterns brings freedom to be yourself.

Since fear has kept us in our heads where fear rules our lives, to allow a new message of love is not easy. One by one releasing the false for the truth allows the heart to open to receive the love of the Creator. In fear, the walls of our heart kept out the love. It is a complicated emotional readjustment to accept the love in your heart to enter and fill you. Becoming a love-based person instead of our reacting from our fear-based life, is an opportunity to move into reality and maturity. However, it is a slow and sometime painful experience to open up to the truth. The results are joy and enlightenment,   

Fear is a form of insanity. A lack of self-honesty brought my misery. When I found this out, I vowed to be as honest with myself as I could be, as I did not want to be mentally ill like my mother. Spirituality is based in honesty with yourself. I am a child of a loving Creator, who like a Heavenly Father guides and protects me in all ways. The love within gives me worthiness, power, courage, self-confidence, and self-love. I am reborn into reality. Love is realty. Knowing today that there is nothing wrong with me and there never was brings a new life.

I looked very good while I was dying inside. I had never listed to my heart. Previously, I only had listened to others tell me how bad I was. I had worried about what others thought about me, instead of being true to myself. The more I released the negative emotions and replaced them with love and grace, the better my life improved. I started liking myself, instead of sabotaging my life. I started making decisions from my intuition.

I know today that I need the light from my soul to sustain life. I was actually told by a doctor that I was dying thirty-nine years ago. Without my soul shinning as a flame in my heart, I lived in the darkness. Nothing can grow in the dark. The depression left as the rays of light filled me. The more I allow the divinity within to guide my life the difficulties were less. Moving into the light of the Creator brings  daylight into my life for reality. I found the love within. Love and light are reality.

I tried faith and found it brings prodigious results. The answer was total faith in a higher power of PURE LOVE. I am growing in faith today. The universe supports me in all things. I trust the universe to take care of me and bring my needs. The commitment to turn my life over to a loving energy was not easy for me. 

Now each morning, I turn my day over to the care of my Creator. My Creator takes better care of me than my parents, husband, boss, or husband ever did. I have been blessed. I pray and meditate for my answers. When releasing my past, my ego, fear, and judgments, I identify each issue to release as the universe works best, when I am specific. Answers come to me, when I am open to receiving them. If I have no worries of the future and have forgiven my past, living in the now is possible.

My inner knowing is truth. I feel joy, forgiveness, compassion and love as I accept the perfect love of my Creator and know that I am dearly loved. When I live in the moment, it is a gift and that is why it is called THE PRESENT. I am now living in the Presence of  God. I allow that energy of love and grace to fill me and my day goes well. I have moved into reality.  

This is described more precisely in "Paradigm Busters" at Amazon. It is called a psychic change as you move from your fear-based life into a love-based life. We are reborn into the love that created us. Love never fails. 

Finding Faith & Answer to Domestic Violence

 

Finding Faith &

Answer to Domestic Violence

 

Marilyn L. Redmond, BA, IBRT, ABH

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o23zJdWDuHo&t=4s

 

Marilyn shares her story of how God came into the ordeal of her husband trying to kill her and stopped his actions. She was silently told what to pray. He could not come any closer and she safely left the room. She immediately found a faith that totally works for her.

After numerous similar experiences, her faith is rock-solid. Her next book, "Divinely Protected" will tell these stories.  She also has been off the cliffs at the Grand Canyon and in Canada at Banff. There have been at least 13 times when she almost died.

Marilyn also explains how she found the answer to Domestic Violence in the middle of her husband trying to kill her in a fit of rage. Her husband was a psychopath and could not handle love. She did not have to leave with nothing to be safe. He left..Being told what to pray from spirit, she was protected as she left the room.

Love acts like an amour of protection. The answer to Domestic Violence is to send out love and not try to defend yourself.  She explains how pray works when needing to protect yourself.

Marilyn found a spiritual path in treatment for healing addiction, mental illness, and more. She learned to meditate which has become a daily practice. Marilyn shares how these experiences have become value-bringing wisdom to help others. They have taught her answers to a wide variety of life problems. Because she has come out the other side or many predicaments, illnesses, addictions, and life and death situations, she can help people benefit and heal. The answers are not the typical ones in our culture. She now knows the answers as she has been there.

Her books, "Paradigm Busters", "Finding Reality Beyond Fear",, "The Real Meaning of 2012", :Road to Success" and her eBooks all are about answers that work beyond the current answers usually sought.

I am a privileged person in that I have the luxury of knowing dozens of alternative health care providers. I have been helped in various sessions by most of them. The thing is, when my issue is Soul Core Deep...in need of the most tender and precious handling (think brain surgery or eye surgery!), I know that I can trust Marilyn Redmond to provide spot on, gentle and effective transformative help in one session and bring me through the other side feeling great! Her insights, experience, and consciousness are brilliant. Recommended without hesitation to absolutely anyone. You will not regret trusting your tender heart, wounded inner child, or confusing path to Marilyn's expert guidance.

A New Christmas Story 

By Marilyn L. Redmond 

 

Christmas is a time for gifts. What kind of gifts are you giving this year? I always met my obligation to have gifts for the family members. This was not easy when growing up without an allowance and only a few babysitting jobs. Over the years, they were always given from duty. Somehow, I managed to find items that were useful. I had fulfilled my requirement.

 

I was not supposed to receive gifts because I was not worthy. Therefore, I did not have any real sentiment in the giving or the receiving. As I was emotionally shut down from my past trauma, I only acted as if I were into the gift giving. The packages at Christmas were very pretty in the colorful season wrappings and bows. I performed the wrapping of the gifs as a routine needing to be accomplished.

 

My unemotional life was the only one I knew at the time as I grew up and into my marriage. Holidays were not a joy to which I looked forward. My feelings were shut down and a holiday did not change that until I changed my life style when I needed to recover from a past of neglect, abuse, and trauma. The doctor told me I was dying.

 

I was living in fear where I swiftly reacted in survival reactions. I did not have life skills. Fortunately, I found answers for recovery into becoming a living human being. There was another way to address life. Finding a spiritual path that could replace the fear with love was unique and novel to me. Because I had nothing to lose, I decided to try this new path of faith and trust.

 

Gradually, I was able to release the past baggage of harms, people, and situations that were the bases of my life. I had never heard of faith in church or how powerful that could be. Growing in faith, I told myself. God I need more faith for this one, here we go again. I did feel faith come in. I continued to do this as I had more difficult life challenges emerge. Each time as my faith grew I was able to respond in more appropriate ways with loving practical actions.

 

Then I realized I had never trusted anyone, as my parents were mentally ill. I was neglected as a child. If you cannot trust your parents how do you trust a loving invisible energy, to be there for you. This was a big awareness for me. Over time, I was asking for the willingness to trust my Creator.

 

As I grew in this awareness, I realized that I had seen a commercial years ago about an insurance company. They were promoting people to trust in them. The advertisement showed a man on the edge of the cliff. He was invited to walk off the cliff into the hands of the insurance company and rely on them. I thought of my stepping into the hands of my Creator where I would be safe. This step of faith was not easy. However, as I was practicing faith, I realized that trust was not harmful and would bring me a conscious connection in a relationship with my higher power. I saw my challenge as an opportunity as if I were stepping up stars each time needing more faith for the next scary experience. It felt like I kept adding faith with the next step up. I felt more confidence over time. 

 

With my newfound trust and faith, I continued to release the past baggage of fear, guilt, shame, resentment, anger and more. Replacing each one with love and grace felt good. . It made room for the next higher feelings to have space. I was camping at Death Valley National Park when in meditation. I actually felt grace and it was not just a word now it was a feeling.

 

Over the years while continuing to peel the onion, I now realize that it is also called growing up. I was outgrowing the past of a fear-based life from earlier mistreatment. The barriers to that truth are not blocking it like in the past. With many years of releasing the past and future worry, I moved into an experience of finding The Great Reality deep down within me. I have a new pair of glasses. I see only the love.

 

Love does heal. Lately, my medical concerns are improving. It feels like I am healing those conditions. I never felt so good; I am a happy, contented person and love my days helping others. In sharing my experiences, strength, and hope, I have a new life. Becoming a new person brings wonderful gifts, I never expected. Receiving respect and being honored by friends is a new world. I am not the same person who was dying years ago.

 

Changing my inner consciousness into love allows me to project the love of my existence and brings self-love and self-esteem. I see the light at the end of the tunnel, finally. My gift this Christmas is that I am still alive 38 years after the doctor told me, I was dying. . My Christmas gift this year is celebrating my new life and that I am still alive to enjoy the blessings that have been waiting for me. 

 

 

 

Letter to a Skeptic

I always write from my experience.  I love these discussions. “Ending the energy drain from past issues elevates you to a height of God consciousness, love, or healthy vibrations of well-being”. This is my experience from 30 years of “daily dying to the old me”. The first time I heard about the past draining my energy was on a DVD by Carolyn Myss.  She said that when we are not in the “now”, the past and future are draining our energy from having 100% of our daily energy to run our lives.  She was explaining illness as the signal that energy is draining and that prevents wellness for living in the now.  This is also the basis for Alcoholics Anonymous as they have the steps to remove the past emotional baggage that stops “the conscious knowing I am in the prescence of God.”

The point of the article is to change my vibrations of energy, because “Like attracts like”.

I am an energy field, spirit, and can choose to change the level of my vibrational energy.  For me, it is about attracting more love into my life instead of continuing on the same path. My difficulties also came from past lives. My history recreated until I identified the obstacles preventing love to flow through my life. I took responsibility to change my subconscious vibrations into an energy of love releasing the fear, abuse, or calamity.  They stopped the love from manifesting from my heart. They covered my inner love of my birthright as a spiritual being.

My despair became my outward focus instead of the Great Reality inside.  Where my focus of consciousness is attracts fearful or loving events to me.  As I spiritually grew, I matured out of my fearful reactive, immature history into responding in more mature responses to life. I can now be safe, be myself, in the “now” to expand in love.

It is the spirit within that needs to grow into unconditional love to attract more; it is an inside job.  I have out grown domestic violence with incest from childhood and a thirty-year domestic violent marriage of rape to understand how I attracted that, what to change and how.  My mediations, masters, guides, and Archangels have revealed to me the answers. These principles work in all parts of my life.  

I did not see my subconsciousness messages coming back, I was told early in my searching for the God within.  “It is what I do not see that needs to change.  What is invisible is real.”   I now know that in the past, I was projecting all those parts of me that still needed healing to make me whole, while I was trying to look good. 

People reflect back to me the traits that have splintered off and need to be loved back into wholeness.  Joyful acceptance of all things, people, and events in my life works to return to oneness with God.  I am a child of God and so is everyone else. They played their parts to help me see that I can change my energy back to love. I thank them today for playing their parts so well. I celebrate them in joyous acceptance. This allows me to enjoy the “now”.  I am in joy, I am in gratitude and I am in the prescence of God. Today, I am in a relationship of unconditional love for nearly 14 years.

God is, and life is.  It is not good or bad, but that it was the lessons to learn to move my souls’ energy into oneness with the spirit of the universe.  I just recently was told in mediation, I had healed my karma after 30 years of forgiveness work, sending love, etc.  I felt my energy shift to neutral about my stepfather, a man, I called in the past, “the devil incarnate”. 

I do create my own reality.  I choose to create what is real and only the God within is real, not my outer world that is manifested from the level of my consciousness from my ego’s fear, selfishness, and self-centeredness that “uses” others.  I choose to give to others from a clean heart that channels only “Thy Will Be Done.”  I am only a vessel of His spirit being used to help and contribute to others.  Of myself, I am nothing, God doeth the work. My Father and I are one. This will bring heaven/love to earth, when I release all the barriers to God’s love flowing through my life.

In my wholeness, there is no lack, no limitations, or no insecurity.  I become a multidimensional being of light not restricted to earthly experience.  I leave the material, duality behind and move into a higher dimension of Fifth dimension also called ascension, grace, or heaven on earth. I have left the influence of my ego (edging God out) and have returned to my birthright as one with God, oneness. Of course, I still have many levels to transcend according to one of the charts by Mack included in my latest book, but I am on the way. I came to earth to enjoy and not be stuck here eternally.

I learned I was here to change my consciousness and I was an energy field. Putting the word “God” on my water in my drinking bottle had a huge effect on this change over the past couple of years; I actually felt myself maturing.  Usually today, I respond in love to the events or people in my life quite quickly. They are just being themselves and it is not about me.  Besides, I use mediation, hypnosis and flower essences to add additional pure energy into the mix. Whenever I release my fearful negativity, the only way is up because love is a higher vibrational energy than fear. 

Of course, I have to do this on a conscious level, as the trick is to “Knowing” a conscious prescence with God, and not just talking about it intellectually. Life is about experiencing. When I experience the prescence of God, I am in a higher consciousness.  This is becoming more constant in my life. Last night, I experienced this as I went to see the ballet, “Don Quixote”.  It was magic.

I have to make room for the new.  My pneumonia was actually a detoxing the suicidal energy from my body and this consciousness to leave room for more of my experiencing God. I conquered my last fear before Christmas.  This made room for more love in my experience.  When I release I find a void. My masters told me in meditation to fill it with the love and grace of God, immediately. 

My channelings are all about making room for a higher consciousness.  I purposely address all negative energy in my life and release it daily. This is “dying to the self”.  I have to purify my consciousness or reduce the influence of the ego, to rise up into 5^th Dimension.  That is my mission on earth to raise my consciousness back into oneness, because I had separated from God.  The true message of the masters is that I am a Christed being, releasing my human faults and selfishness from fears, returning home.   The water is like a homeopathic remedy that moves me up Jacob’s ladder more easily.   My angel chart with the book section I sent you, diagrams this.  

I have taught a workshop for over 23 years of how to raise consciousness into a God/Christ Consciousness. My spiritual counseling and regressions are all about replacing love from the trauma of the past.  I share with others from my experience to achieve a higher level of experience.  Hope this makes sense. It works for me, wonderfully. I live without any fears in abundance, peace, and unconditional love, today.

Blessings, Marilyn
