Inspiration From Rev. Karen Wylie

Rev. Karen Wylie

May 3, 2023

Dear Friends,

I just realized that it's been a very long time since I sent out my last newsletter. Lots has happened to keep me busy. The biggest news has been that my partner Danny and I moved. Fortunately, we were blessed (God is so good) to find another beautiful home here in Ojai, and we are finally settled into our new place.

Regarding how we found our new home, some people around me call it a miracle (or some will tell me how lucky I am); but I know that Spirit is forever active in my life. I continue to thank God for all the numerous blessings that come my way. (I'm also very good at following inner guidance and my faith is strong!)

Even though I've not published a newsletter recently nor done much in terms of workshops, etc., I have been doing some wonderful, powerful internal work. As they say, you never get it done! A lot of it stems from reading Michael Singer's latest book, Living Untethered, in which he talks about the lasting impressions that stay stuck in your mind over your lifetime. He calls them samskaras. They distort your experience of life and influence the decisions you make throughout your life. For me, it's allowed me to do a life review unlike anything I would have done without that information. Now I can see why I have had lifelong behaviors that have limited me, all based on samskaras from the past. Check out Mr. Singer's book if you want to go a little deeper.

Anyway, the good news is we keep growing and changing and becoming more like our true self. What a gift that is!

I'm glad to be back communicating with you! There is so much to be grateful for in this world. That's what we are here to see and experience! Danny and I are leaving soon on a pilgrimage to Israel and Jordan. I'm sure that I will have lots to share about that!

In peace and love always,

Rev. Karen

Inspiration

I'm excited to let you know that Rev. Jennifer Berkeley and I will be doing a retreat on the east coast in October 2023. We have found a beautiful retreat and conference center called the Wisdom House in Litchfield, Connecticut. It is a favorite time of year to travel back east because of the beauty of the change of seasons. For more information, check out the flyer below.

BELOW IS ONE OF MY RECENT WRITINGS FOR THE INNER VISION MAGAZINE OF THE AGAPE SPIRITUAL CENTER, AVAILABLE ON LINE AT AGAPELIVE.COM...

Embracing Our Christhood

"There is a vibrating, radiant force that energizes and connects us with the source of all creation. It is the energy of which our own body is composed. We vibrate with the same life that vibrates the waters, the earth and the stars. All is connected in this living vital force. All is motivated and sustained by its power. Realize this. Take responsibility for being the cocreator of your life."

Ann Mortifee, In Love With the Mystery

Ann has said it all above. It seems that most of us still believe that the answer to life is somehow outside of us—in someone else or somewhere else yet to be discovered. Yet it is really much simpler than that.

The answer to life is within you. Everything you need to know is inside of you—in the deepest part of you, in the center of your being. What you’ve been seeking is not outside. It seems too simplistic to believe, probably because most of us grew up doubting ourselves and feeling unworthy and/or undeserving. We have felt that someone else is smarter, more deserving, more beautiful inside and out than us. We grew up with a load of undeserved baggage that we must now rise above in order to find the peace, love and joy we desire.

We have struggled to discover who we really are. As one who has made the journey from there to here, I can tell you without a doubt that sitting in the silence of your own soul, meditating and praying to know your own Christ presence will bring you all the love, joy and freedom you’ve ever desired. We were born to experience heaven on earth in this physical body. We were born to love, to laugh, to create, and to live in joy and peace.

In the center of your being, you can connect with the Love Intelligence (God) that has created this universe. You begin to be in harmony with that power. You find yourself in the flow of it and your desires are fulfilled even before you ask. You become grateful beyond measure because life is so good and you realize your enormous blessings. You are connected to the energy that has created everything. You realize it and you are grateful for it.

So stop, look around you, and listen. There is a whole beautiful life awaiting you but you have to want to discover it for yourself. You have to trust yourself and be willing to spend quiet time with yourself, meditate and pray and ask the most important question, “Who am I?” In your surrender, you will tap into your God Self, and you will truly discover for the first time, heaven on earth!
