Welcome to your Newsletter. I do hope that you have enjoyed a Wonderful, Joyful and Healthy "week". As always I would like to welcome the many new members joining us since our last Newsletter. I would also like to thank those existing members who responded to their inner desire to be of Service to others by referring new members. Service to Others Before Service to Self is of Principle importance throughout All. It is impossible to attain Enlightenment in fact without embodying this Truth. With the exception of Earth and other planets in the physical vibration, for the most part, Beings who have transcended the physical vibration devote their Being in the Service of Guiding those Expressions of Source who have not yet advanced to the same level to Evolve and progress on the Great Path to Source. In fact through such Service comes Evolution, yet this is not the primary motive. Service to Others Before Service to Self Embodies the Greatest Truth of All - we are All One, there is no duality, there is no "them and us", there is Only Source of Which "we" are All Divine Expressions in One-Ness. To deny this, or to focus on Self to the exclusion of others is to deny Who we Are. I have written this Newsletter almost continuously since 2005, and will continue to do so for as long as it is possible to do so - that I promise. You can provide a large but simple Service by offering the opportunity to others. If you are reading this Newsletter for the first time, you may, if you wish, join us by entering your details at the top of any page of our website at:

"Money" in Perspective
During the course of a week, I receive numerous emails from people who are suffering in some way, the perceived cause for which suffering is a "lack of money". It is this perceived "lack of money" that becomes the focus of their situation, "blinding them to our True Source of Infinite Abundance. In previous Newsletters, as we will in future Newsletters, we have discussed how we may become One with Our Source of All Abundance, thereby effortlessly realising all wishes, needs and desires, but it has become evident to me that before we revisit this subject and aspect of our Being, we should put this human contrived thing called "money" in to a proper perspective. One of the most detrimental issues with humanity today, particularly in terms of Spiritual evolution, is the obsession with money and material possessions. The Universe is pure Energy and simply does not recognize the concept of money, which is an entirely human construct. Our distant ancestors were manifesting everything they required relative to their specific needs at their stage of evolution, long before money was even conceived by more recent humanity. The only reason people are so dependent on money is because they believe that money is an absolute necessity, required in order to realize their wishes, needs and desires. If everyone in the world ceased focusing on money, the illusion of money could not be sustained and would accordingly cease to exist as a concept along with the misery it causes. While people hold and hang on to this belief about money it will always be a selfperpetuating aspect of their experience, and such people will remain a slave to money for the duration of their entire physical life. From a human perspective, money somehow is supposed to represent value. But what is "value" Value is a purely notional concept relative to the perception of each individual. The notion of value fluctuates dramatically as the economy, rate of inflation, foreign exchange rates and many other such human constructs, change. The irony is that even these factors, in and of themselves are simply human constructs, which can and are often manipulated by world governments, institutions and in particular central banks for their own ends. No one really understands how or on what basis the central banks print money. In the USA for example the amount of money in circulation is supposed to be backed by the equivalent in reserves of gold, but of course there is no way for most people to verify this is actually the case.
In any case, only a very small percentage of the money in the world tangibly exists in the form of physical coins and notes. Most money exists only in the form of electronic data - bits and bytes held on a network of computer systems that can simply move money around at the touch of a computer key. The so called "central banks" which control "money supply", can, and do generate millions, billions even trillions of dollars "out of thin air", as we saw a couple of years ago during the "banking crisis". In the case of the "Federal Reserve" - which is a privately owned company - this notional money is then "lent" to the government who have to pay interest on that money - interest which becomes a huge burden on the economy and which is ultimately paid for by the "people in the street". Money is therefore, like religion, primarily an instrument of control. This raises the question then - if trillions of dollars can be generated at the push of a button, why should there be so much lack in the world today with its resultant misery - surely there must be enough to go around? So, even money itself is a notional conceptan illusion existing only to perpetuate the human concept of value, but which for many people, businesses and governments has long been an obsession at the expense of everything else including compassion, service, Love and the needs of the majority. It is not, never has been and never will be within the sphere of human Beings to decide how things should be Expressed into physical reality where they can be experienced. It is this erroneous belief that is one of the greatest sources of all misery, with people making money the centre of their priorities. Again, money is at one level simply a human construct, a notional method of exchange, and at the most basic level most money does not really exist in a tangible form except for the few percent that remains in circulation in the form of notes and coins that people can spend in exchange for products and services. In reality money has never been necessary to obtain our every wish, need and desire. Our ancient ancestors lived quite happily without money, because they understood the True Source of Supply. People may say well they did not have the luxuries that we do today, but that again is materialistic thinking. True abundance is not, never has been and never will be measured in terms of money and material possessionsit is always relative to each individual. One persons "poverty" is the next persons "riches". Society has always encouraged people to compare themselves with others, thereby desiring bigger and better "things" to "keep up appearances". Consider these few lines from one of my favourite poems - Desiderata - which offers this excellent and most relevant advice:
"If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time." Money is the fuel of materialism and the basis for the enforcement of human power over what is perceived as othersone of the main reasons that humanity has been heading away from its own true purpose and destiny and towards potential disaster. While so many people focus on money as an object of power, control and means of obtaining goods and services, it will be associated with the Energy that perpetuates that same power, and so the association of money with power and control will be perpetuated. While we all create our own realities at an individual level, the same is also true at a consensual level of the human Mind - upon the collective Mental Plane of the Human Mind. While the consensus Consciousness of the majority of Human Beings is that money is important and necessary, then this will always remain a consensus reality. Againmoney is in fact nothing more than a large-scale illusion perpetuated on a massive scale. While people place so much emphasis on money, and while money can be used as an instrument of control and power, this situation will continue until humanity eventually awakes, and recognises the illusion of money for what it truly is. Universal Principles work with immutable, absolute perfection, have always worked with absolute, immutable perfection, and always will work with absolute, immutable perfection. So, all humanity needs to do is to cease to focus on the Energy of money and start to focus on these immutable Universal Principles. When this happens the world will become a vastly happier place, and the adverse consequences of money, such as poverty and oppression will become a thing of the past. Like health, wealth and abundance is a state of Mind. Everyone was born wealthy, and all anyone needs to do is to realise that health, wealth and abundance by aligning with the Universe and coming into vibratory harmony that it may be received. Money is intangible and unreal, while Abundance is your birthright as a Divine aspect of The Universe. To be dependent on money is to be out of harmony with the Universe. What then does this mean in practical terms? Money is Energy - it flows in to our Life Experience and out of our Life Experience. The more freely it flows, the more Abundance we Experience.
If we constrict the flow of "money Energy" through for example, fear of debt, fear of spending, being "miserly" and so on, it is akin to putting a kink in a hosepipe, restricting the flow of water, or even stopping it altogether. So approach "money" as a flowing of unrestricted Energy, never attaching any form of thought pattern to it, never being afraid to receive or spend it, never fearing or doubting its Source of Supply, and I am sure you will be surprised and delighted with the positive effects upon your life Experience.
