Inviting Love Into Your Life To Transform the World Today

Inviting Love Into Your Life by Genevieve Gerard

This article is part of my ongoing Series on Love.

Learning to Love is the next step in the evolution of consciousness that is being played out here on the little speck of the universe that is known as planet earth.

Across the great span of space in the mind of the creative intelligence that may be called God, Creator, or Higher Source, is a Divine plan for the evolution of consciousness.

Simply put, life is a process of purpose.  That purpose is vast and cosmic.  You and this tiny planet which we inhabit called Planet Earth have an important part to play at this time.

We, the citizens of Earth provide something special because it is within the experience of a human being and the human consciousness that what is physical and material (the human body) is able to merge and fuse with the creative essence of the Divine Creator.  This magic, this mystery has a purpose that creates the miracle of Love. This mystery has the purpose that infuses Love into the Universe.

There is, all around the world a spiritual revolution that is an integral part of the spiritual evolution of all of humanity.

Transforming The World With Love

The amazing thing is that matter, the nature, and expression of the human form, is devoid of Love.  Matter, by itself, is unresponsive to Love.  It is only through the blending and merging of what is the spark of Divine Light or essence that is known as the Soul that the material aspect of the human being is brought into right relationship with the Divine Creator to transform this world with Love.

At this time, it is up to us to aid in the evolution of our planet and consciousness! The merging and infusing of matter with Love that is happening here on planet earth through the blending of matter (the human body) with the energy and essence of our Soul (Spirit) which is Love has significance across the wide spectrum of the whole Universe.  Earth is a Cosmic experiment in consciousness and it is time for us to choose the higher path to evolve.

It is in the transformation process that a miracle of co-creation is revealed.  A miracle that when understood can make a difference to our entire human race. That miracle of co-creation ignites the power of Love and by so doing accomplishes the next step in the evolution of higher consciousness on our planet.  Transforming matter with unconditional Love allows the infusion of what is both dense and unconscious, material and meaningless with what is Spiritual and eternal, full of purpose and meaning.

The co-creation of humanity with the Divine is only understood when the power of thought and the importance of the “word” is understood in the Creation process.  At the root of that understanding is that energy follows thought and the dynamic power of intention and will are still in the beginning developmental stages of understanding in this cycle of creation. Thoughts and words have power. Ponder on this!

Stages of Consciousness To Usher In Love-Wisdom

Each step in Creation has a purpose.  Each stage in evolution is charged with transformation along unique energetic lines.  Previous to this emerging stage of consciousness, Creative Intelligence held sway.  As important as that step in the evolution of consciousness was, it was void of Love.  Love was revealed as the essential nature of the Divine and grounded on planet earth about 2,500 years ago through the actions of the avatar known as the Christ.

The Cosmic step of consciousness that was ushered into Earth to be demonstrated by humanity was the creation of not only Love but more importantly and more significantly the energy of Love-Wisdom.

This merging of meaning and bringing matter into the expression of Love, which is the nature of the Creator, is a process of redemption on a Cosmic level.  This mission of transformation that takes place here in our tiny part of the Universe, through the lives of individual human beings is of importance that we cannot even perceive.  It lies in what is often called, “The Mind of God” which is the purpose of life itself.

The creative process of the Divine Mind and what is conceived as an overall plan of evolution for all of life, not only here on spaceship Earth but in the vast realm of space, is both gradual and from the perspective of humanity painfully slow.  Infusing and transforming matter with the energies of Love, and more significantly the energies of Love-Wisdom requires significant alterations in what directs the life force and life experience.

How You Can Help Transform The World With Love

Within you is the spark of what is described as Divine Light that resides in your Soul.  It is the Presence of this Divine Light, this Divine essence that empowers you to be a co-creator, with the Divine Creator.  The Soul (your Soul) is aligned with and aware of the Divine Creator, but freedom and more importantly free will are integral to the creative process.

You must remember that the nature of your Soul is Love because your Soul is the spark of Divine Light that differentiates you from an animal, and other forms of sentience such as vegetables, plants, and even minerals.

The issue of sentience (the capacity to feel, perceive or experience subjectively) is integral to the issue of transformation (an act, process, or instance of transforming or being transformed) in the long span of the evolution of consciousness that directs and unfolds your nature.

It is up to you to raise the energetic frequency of this planet by loving all forms of sentient beings, which includes the earth and your fellow (wo)man, and having loving thoughts. This act of love may sound simple, but that does not mean it is easy.

That your Soul is composed of Love and intrinsically understands what it means to Love can be confused by the parts of you that are more material and dense, the physical body, the emotional body (the seat of emotions) and the mental body (the thoughts and reasoning aspect of the human experience.)  Unfortunately for most, the ego vigorously strives to keep control of these 3 bodies and resists surrendering to the Soul with dogged determination.

Transforming the world with Love ultimately requires letting your Soul guide and direct your awareness.  However, the surrender to Love and the understanding of your Divine and eternal nature that is available through love can be in active opposition to what the ego desires and believes it wants and needs.

No matter how often the selfish needs and desires of what is disguised and purported to be Love, Soul Love, and Divine Love is distinguishable by surrendering the ego and opening and acquiescing and engaging your Soul to Love.

When you surrender to the Soul, everything changes.  Selfish desire and demands disappear.  A bond that is not about yourself but is about the needs of the beloved is formed.

In this ongoing act of surrender, something special and eternal is created that transcends time and space.  A true transformation of matter takes place creating a force and an energy that was not there before.  A miracle happens and the whole Cosmos rejoices.  A materially focused and ego-driven creature becomes a source for what is both Divine and eternal to enter the world of consciousness.

It is by learning to Love that the purpose of life is expressed, and it is by loving that the deepest desire and the deepest dream of a human looking for enlightened transformation is fulfilled.
      – Genevieve Gerard

This Cosmic miracle and Cosmic drama are played out across this tiny planet in this tiny corner of the Earth frequently, but always profoundly.  Each step is important because it is the fulfillment of a plan that is held in the mind and the heart of the Divine Creator.  The Angels, which are by their very nature composed of Love and aligned with Love rejoice.  It is through Love that redemption and salvation are accomplished.  It is by learning to Love that the purpose of life is expressed, and it is by loving that the deepest desire and the deepest dream of a human looking for enlightened transformation is fulfilled.

This power of transformation, redemption, and salvation that occurs with Love is why spiritual teachers advise you to, make Love your Aim (Corinthians 1-19).  Love becomes a portal to the Soul and a vast array of Spiritual gifts that open you to the wholeness of your being as a co-creator with the Divine Creator.  Ultimately, love transforms you and transforms the world.

By learning to Love you can participate in a great step in the evolution of consciousness and make our planet sacred.

Namaste,

Feeling Love on Valentine’s Day

Feeling Love on Valentine’s Day

Read Feeling Love on Valentine's Day by Genevieve Gerard

This article is part of my ongoing Series on Love.

All across the world on Valentine’s Day people celebrate love. They celebrate love in its many forms, but most of all they celebrate romantic and intimate love. They celebrate desire, passion and all of the fantasies that have been quietly nourished in the heart of what it means to love and to be loved.

This expression of Love was captured by the poet Robert Frost when he said:

Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
        – Robert Frost

I have often written about love, but as I review my body of work I note that I focus more on the essence of love than upon romantic or erotic love. Still, in the adventure of life, we are given the opportunity to learn about life, and that means to learn about love.

Romantic love, or as the ancient Greeks called it erotic love, laced with passion and desire is necessary for all that it teaches about life. There are life lessons about love that can best and perhaps only be learned through romantic love. It is to celebrate that passion, that joy, and that sense of wonder that Valentine’s Day is celebrated throughout the world.

Love doesn’t make the world go ’round.
Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
        – Franklin P. Jones

During this Valentine’s Day experience, let romantic love, with its intensity of yearning for union with a beloved, teach you about all love in a powerful way that allows you to comprehend the meaning of Union of Souls. It is a demonstration of deeper truths that you might never discover if it were not for the passion and promise that falling in love delivers.

When you fall in love may be the very first time you have been able to reach beyond yourself to consider the needs and desires of another. Life, with its infinite wisdom, rewards you with joyful celebration when you make that important step. Passion, fulfillment, and satisfaction are granted as you learn how to merge your needs and desires in cooperation with another.

What would otherwise be a painful life lesson of sacrifice can become a beautiful expression of joy. To express love, to be generous, to strive to give your beloved what they wish and desire, all provides you with the opportunity to reach beyond the limitations of yourself. Not only is that step rewarded, but it can also be experienced, enjoyed and celebrated on all levels of your being.

At times, I have pondered the incredible miracle of romantic love and sex for the way that it transforms our life from aloneness and a sense of separation and alienation to a demonstration that we are not alone. Also, most amazing is that the fruit of having loved is the realization that we are aware of eternity. Ponder on this.

By loving we are transformed, changed and given the opportunity to be our true self, our best self.

Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible – it cannot be seen or measured, yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment, and offer you more joy than any material possession could.
        – Barbara de Angelis

It is perhaps to help us learn and grow that God blessed us with the passion of erotic love, for love expands your heart with compassion and generosity.

Love is a force upon which you can anchor your life. It seems to grow miraculously and develop until you realize that through your love for another you have learned to not only love one another but also to love others. You have come to love life and with your appreciation of what love you have been given you see a world of wonder. You see the world where blessings can come to you when you least expect it.

Once you had loved and been truly loved nothing is ever the same as it was before you were loved. What is most strange and miraculous about this transforming experience is the way that it changes you and changes your life.

The “happily ever after” myths and, “happy endings” of Hollywood’s stories imply that the story goes on and on. And, certainly in life sometimes it does. The happily ever after is not what is most important. What is most important is that you have known what it is to love. Your life has been touched, changed and transformed by love.

The real miracle is that you have received and given love. Somehow, that warms you, nourishes and restores you in your darkest moments. It caresses and calms you and fills you with peace and joy. Having given love and having received the love you have been enfolded in a moment of eternity that is in some mysterious way beyond space and outside of time.

True love is less about the outcome and more about having opened your heart, your mind and your Soul to love. Having loved, you touched eternity. Having loved you created in this particular span of years something that is endless and timeless.

It is ironic to me that when I begin writing about romantic love and erotic love I find myself uncontrollably led to talk about love as the endless, eternal expression. Having noticed this, I find myself wondering and pondering upon how erotic and romantic love ends up being eternal love.

What I realized in thinking about and considering love is that sexual love and romantic love is a portal to love. Once you cross that portal, once you let yourself transcend the selfishness, the exclusive self-awareness that you are you, and I am I, into the unity and unification that loving brings everything changes.

And it changes not just for the moments of passion and sex, but it changes everything. And it is for that reason I call it a portal. It is a portal that it seems that once crossed cannot be re-entered. It is a great mystery in my life that having deeply loved someone; I have never stopped loving them.

That may be inconvenient, especially when life and circumstances converge so that you are no longer with the person you loved. And sadly in today’s world of relationships, that may be challenging.

Yet, with the understanding that the “it” is the lesson and experience of love, that makes the difference. It is the change you can undergo because of having loved that is important. Perhaps that grants a different perspective that helps you avoid the need and attachment that interferes with you experiencing love.

To love, by its very nature, requires transcending that need an attachment that so often disguises itself as romantic love. Loving another requires moving from loving them because you need them, to needing them because you love them. Ponder on this. That shift and transition are significant. However, it also puts you in direct conflict with the fact that loving someone makes you want what is best for him or her.

I recently saw the quote below that I would like you to ponder. Today, in celebration of love and dedication to love on Valentine’s Day, I share it with you.

Dear Human: You’ve got it all wrong. You didn’t come here to master unconditional love. That is where you came from and where you’ll return. You came here to learn personal love. Universal love. Messy love. Sweaty love. Crazy love. Broken love. Whole love. Infused with divinity. Lived through the grace of stumbling. Demonstrated through the beauty of… messing up. Often. You didn’t come here to be perfect. You already are. You came here to be gorgeously human. Flawed and fabulous. And then to rise again into remembering.

 

But unconditional love? Stop telling that story. Love, in truth, doesn’t need ANY other adjectives. It doesn’t require modifiers. It doesn’t require the condition of perfection. It only asks that you show up. And do your best. That you stay present and feel fully. That you shine and fly and laugh and cry and hurt and heal and fall and get back up and play and work and live and die as YOU. It’s enough. It’s Plenty.”
        – Courtney A. Walsh

As you go through your life’s adventure, I encourage you to open to and explore love in all of its beautiful and glorious forms. Open your heart and celebrate love as a celebration of life.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Namaste,

   Genevieve

10 Things I Have Learned About Consciousness From My Dog

10 Things I Have Learned About
Consciousness From My Dog Silky

Genevieve Gerard Dog Silky

 

Life offers us many lessons, sometimes from unlikely teachers.

Although I originally published this post in December of 2013, I am republishing it because the lessons I learned from my dog Silky are different from the lessons I learn from my current dog Bentley, just as our human teachers have different personalities and characteristics that teach us different life lessons.

As I was considering what to post for this week’s Wisdom Wednesday Blog I chose to update and repost this article.

Update:

Silky passed on to doggy heaven in July of 2014. In 2014, a new fur baby came to me as a rescue, my dog Bentley. He has a very different nature and teaches different life lessons.

In October of 2014 I wrote a post about what Bentley was teaching me.

The thing that I think was most wonderful is that each of these souls had mastered giving unconditional love.

The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog.
      — M. K. Clinton

I am very grateful for the blessing of unconditional love that each of these dogs have brought into my life.

My life has been richer and blessed by the animals that have accompanied me on my adventure. I encourage you to take some time to consider what you can learn from the animal consciousness that has come into your life. Each Presence is unique in what they teach you and offer to you.

I hope you enjoy this somewhat lighter perspective on life lessons. Life lessons are available to us from everywhere if we keep our hearts and minds open.

 

10 Things I Learned

    1. How to relax – when my dog relaxes he does it completely without a worry or concern.
    2. How to forgive immediately – my dog forgives any error on my part and then forgets it.
    3. How to express love with spontaneous joy – my dog gets completely into expressing his love and doesn’t stop until I say enough.
    4. How to be grateful for what I receive – my dog approaches every treat or blessing that life offers with gratitude and appreciation.
    5. How to be in the moment (in the Now) – my dog does not let anything that has happened in the past have any impact on the present and he never worries about the future.
    6. How to Love unconditionally – my dog always loves me and it has nothing to do with what I do. It is always there for me.

    7. How to forgive yourself – as quickly as he forgives me he also forgives himself, even if he has done something wrong; as quickly as any of my transgressions are forgiven and forgotten so are his.
    8. How to honestly express his feelings – if he doesn’t like or trust someone, no amount of comforting or commanding will stop the expression of his feelings, he trusts his intuition completely.
    9. How to delight in the simple joys of life – playing – running- sniffing a new smell – whatever the experience, it is approached with a joyful abandon
    10. How to just be – My dog never makes demands of himself or his time, is never self-critical, he enjoys and appreciates just being.

 

Namaste,

Genevieve

P.S. Silky is a Havanese (his breed is from Havana Cuba and is sometimes referred to as a “Havana Silk Dog” and they are hypoallergenic because they have hair like a human.)
