some not well known stuff about mystics and people they encounter

 

Today's Vulcanite

Re the long report I put into the “Suspended student sues teacher over ‘Hot for Teacher’ paper” thread at the open Facebook “Mystics, Madmen & Muses” group -

https://www.facebook.com/groups/223333164480200/

this from a professional psychic I have known since 1990, who recently told some of her Facebook friends that am a modern mystic:

Gloria Reiser I’m still trying to decide if your sharing spawned a dream I had last night….

Sloan Bashinsky It spawned a dream I had last night, another attack, and St. Francis of Assisi came into the dream trying to help me and folks I was with, and it was looking nip and tuck, and I awoke not terribly happy, but said to the angels, well, they set it up, and Paula’s and my history is in Boulder where most of that happened and/or got started, and so it was up, and very definitely it was mystical, and mad, and was mused, Paula, take a bow. And, you mused the name of this group, Gloria, and you dreamt of some people wanting to play with dragons, and of a Loch Ness Monster, so you can take a bow, too. But, me, personally, I am curious about your dream last night.

Gloria Reiser I don’t want to share that dream in an open forum. IF you agree to not post it somewhere, I will PM it to you. Probably not related to anyone or anything here in MM&M…. just a somewhat similar theme is all.

Sloan Bashinsky If you share the dream just with me, and I feel the dream is about this group, that puts me in a bind. I will take a nap later, maybe a dream will tell me more.

Then began this private Facebook Chat, away from the MM&M group. To see the full context, read the “Hot for Teacher Paper” thread at

https://www.facebook.com/groups/223333164480200/

Gloria Reiser

Sloan, I just wanted to give you a head’s up concerning what’s going on and why I’m pretty much amongst the missing on FB and will be until after Friday. I had a horrid dream night before last that while on the surface seemed to be about something other than what has come down, caused me to wake horribly upset, distraught and to the point of feeling nauseous. That nausea did not leave me all day.

Late afternoon, the mail came in, and among the mail there was an envelope from Bank of America. It looked like junk mail… but something told me to open it. We have our mortgage with them…. a mortgage which would be paid in full after our Dec 2013 payment but for which we are paying a bit extra each month and had hoped to have paid in full by August 2013.

According to the letter, our mortgage is being transferred to Green Tree Servicing effective March 25. We have a one week notice of the transfer. They say that April payment should go to Green Tree rather than BofA…. but our April payment was paid on 3/13 because I have extreme lack of confidence in BofA. I always pay two weeks to a month early online and check in the next day to make sure the payment has posted.

Here’s the kicker. Though payment (for those who haven’t paid yet) should go to GT rather than BofA, GT will not start mailing out welcome packets and NEW ACCOUNT NUMBERS until the week of 3/25…. and we are advised that IF we don’t receive the welcome packet to mail payment to GT at a Pasadena address in time for it to be received by the due date (this does not apply to me, but would to many people) and to include boldly visible your NEW ACCOUNT NUMBER on the check. Now how is anyone to do that if they haven’t received their packet yet?

In attempting to hash this out with an assortment of BofA customer service reps, who all say I just have to go with the transfer and pay GT….. one nice young service rep suggested that if I was concerned about GT to Google them. And he told me “Don’t Google Green Tree Servicing or you will get pages telling you what services they offer and what a wonderful company they are. Be sure you Google “Green Tree Servicing Problems.” ” … which I then did…. and I’ll send you a link to the page that came up.

This is a mortgage servicing company that may in fact be owned by BofA where problem mortgages have been sent… and from customers reports it’s obvious that they set these already financially troubled people up to fail and be foreclosed. The company can take weeks to post a payment remitted by check, or not post it at all, and the late fee for being even a day or two late seems to be $117… no way to waive it apparently, EVEN IF you can prove the check cleared your bank before due date. If you want to pay online it seems people are accessing their accounts to find them blank with no info…. oh and if you can get through to a live person with GT, you learn that to pay online via their website or by phone there is a $12 charge (convenience fee) for that …. oh and if you can get through to a live person with GT, you learn that to pay online via their website or by phone there is a $12 charge (convenience fee) for that payment even if paid on time.

Apparently it has been mandated that they expand their mortgage portfolio to include good mortgages along with troubled ones. And one individual on one of the complaint sites indicated that their credit score was at 800 (mine’s at 796) when their mortgage of $19,000 remaining on a home valued in excess of $250,000. Within 4 months their credit score dropped into the 500+ range… apparently since they are known as a company that services bad mortgages, your credit score drops about 100 points just via your mortgage getting transferred to them.

We owe $7700 on a home valued at $189,000 and I am not going to play this game with B of A and Green Tree…. I’m off determined to find funds to move into my checking account and get cleared by Friday so that we can then obtain a cashier’s check from our bank and walk it over to our local B of A and pay our mortgage balance in full. Trouble is, I’ve found reports online of others who have done that… but apparently not in time… only to find themselves thinking their mortgage is paid… but subsequently receiving demand calls from Green Tree citing amounts owed to them that do not resemble the balance on the mortgage even prior to final pay off.

I’m just heart sick… and may not be back online much until this is resolved. Hopefully we will be able to set an appointment for Friday with a B of A mortgage rep here in Quincy and pay them with a cashier’s check IF I can rustle up enough money to do so and hopefully be able then to have that clear out so that we will be able to see the paid in full zero balance online at B of A BEFORE they close our access to our mortgage at B of A.

Quite a trip…. when this is accomplished, I’m not having anything further to do with banks other than to keep a minimum amount in an account to cover automatic payments such as the phone and utility bills. I’m done with big banks who are too big to jail.

It’s sickening to see reports of what B of A and Green Tree received in bail out money while they are purposely causing people with troubled mortgages to fall delinquent via taking many days to process their payments and then charging excessive late fees… escalating escrow fees…. and now also grabbing up GOOD MORTGAGES and attempting to cause those folks to either pay much more through similar action (and the financially ok people not having time to fight them) OR foreclosing on those as well… once they concoct a way to claim you have been late in paying two months.

As one man online said…. he hated what this is doing to him… but at least he doesn’t have the karma of the poor people so desperate for work that they take jobs with this thug agency.

Gloria Reiser

P.S. in reference to my long diatribe above… here is a link to just one of several sites where folks are telling their stories of getting shuffled into the hands of thugs. It seems GT may not even be a mortgage lender, but a debt collection agency supposedly servicing troubled mortgages. My mortgage is troubled because it’s to the point that Bank of America is netting less than $40/month in interest from it. Nearly paid in full and they spring an attempt to totally mess us up.

Our mortgage was sold to GreenTree Servicing in February 2012. We tried for weeks to contact our mortgage company after we could not set up an online payment but only …

Sloan Bashinsky

Did you contact the Illinois Attorney General’s Office? Also, the nearest US Attorney’s Office?

Gloria Reiser

No time. Others have though and months later to no avail. Same with BBB. GT is not responding to inquiries from any of those agencies and there is already one class action lawsuit against them.

My goal is to get this balance cleared BY FRIDAY so that there can be nothing left to transfer over. To keep all records of payments and then IF there is a claim that something transferred to get an attorney on it pronto.

Gloria Reiser

Apparently it is rare for anyone of any status to be able to get a live person on the phone…. and letters, even official ones go unanswered…. they are counting on people who don’t know their rights and with regard to the good mortgages, people too busy via high powered careers to fight them. Guess what. They got ME on the line. It ain’t gonna be pretty and they ain’t gonna win at this game with this ol’ gal

Sloan Bashinsky

Don’t sound like you should pay the new “collection agency” anything. Yes, try to pay it off to the “old collection” agency, and get a receipt. Might be, if you can’t get the old “collection agency” to take the pay off, you file suit in Federal Court, explaining what happened and asking for protection, and directions where to pay. I say Federal Court, because I imagine that’s where the suit would be removed to, if you filed in in State Court.

Gloria Reiser

The old “collection agency” isn’t a collection agency, it is Bank of America. But yeah… first thing tomorrow we will request an in person meeting with someone in the mortgage department at the local branch. We will insist on seeing in writing our payoff amount for Thursday and for Friday… and to be advised of the best form of payment in order for the transaction to post pronto. Then depending on what is required and how fast we can get money into our account, we ill pay in full by Friday at the latest and require a receipt of payment. After that, if GT attempts to claim we owe them, I’ll go immediately to the attorney general’s office, to the media, and to an attorney who will go after their asses big time. So much for “The High Legal Road” huh?

Sloan Bashinsky

I would go to the US Attorney and the FBI and your local District Attorney, if they fuck with you. A civil lawsuit can take ages, and while it’s going on, they keep fucking other people. It is the US Attorney and the FBI and the District Attorney’s job to stop bad people from fucking American citizens.

Sloan Bashinsky

Your lawyer friend probably has more sway with the aforementioned than a mere private citizen.

Sloan Bashinsky

Maybe you also should ask your dream maker to show you any spirit issues represented by this. That’s The High Legal Road approach, which I imagine is related to the inner castles approach.

Gloria Reiser

I’ve learned something about myself in this: You have in the past accused me of unconsciously sending a psychic attack your way, which I don’t believe has been the case since I’ve never at any level been at a point of anything less than wishing you well.

HOWEVER, IF I could zap Bank of America with a psychic attack, believe you me, I would do so and with zero guilt.

Last customer service rep I spoke with yesterday, quoted a payoff amount that would have still left a balance due of somewhere between $1.22 and perhaps 5x that amount… an amount that would have then been transferred to Green Tree Servicing. In spite of my best efforts to clear this matter by Monday.

I would hope that the info from the customer service rep involved ineptness and/or optimism regarding how soon a wire transfer would clear, rather than a deliberate misstating of payoff balance.

We have wired more money than payoff supposedly could possibly be even with stalling, and our bank has assured us that the payment will be accepted if in an amount greater than what is owed at time of clearing…. and that a refund of the overage should be remitted to us.

We will see what Bank of America does next.

But I will be writing the tale of our experience in detail and spreading it as far as I can as a warning to others who may think that because they owe a tiny balance on mortgage and because they are paid ahead on their mortgage, and because their credit score is 800+, that they are safe with Bank of America. They absolutely are not. And it’s best to get oneself separated from any business dealings with them BEFORE something like this occurs.

I’m too tired from brainstorming what seems to be a way through it, to go into further detail at the moment…. but I will once rested and once it is confirmed that our final payoff amount has been accepted AND CLEARED in time to prevent our mortgage from being shuffled off to a company, known conduct of which, causes street thugs and loan sharks with the mafia to seem in comparison like nice guys.

Sloan Bashinsky

You should have left your and my history out of this.

The last thing you would want to do is zap BOA with a psychic attack.

I hope you are able to get done what you explained.

It might help, if you do inner castle work on it, for this surely represents more than the outward nasty looking ugly lender.

Gloria Reiser

It definitely involved my not honoring intuition strongly enough in the face of practicality. I will NEVER make that mistake again. Regardless of how silly or alarmist an intuitive hunch might feel, you can bet you bippy, I’m going with the intuitive hunch! Lesson learned.

I’ve also learned that with persistence and will, and calling upon all inner world and external world allies, it is possible for the average person to sometimes prevail in a battle of wits with the less than ethical.

Gloria Reiser

By the way, so far via inquiries of my dream maker, and inner castle work, what I’m getting are images of a huge tree. One of those super large summer shade trees. Sort of like Yggdrasil or The World Tree.

Sloan Bashinsky

Was hoping to get a pass, but no.

I was psychically attacked immediately after my last reply to you. The attack was shielded, and only a little of it came through.

Bank of America & Crew mirror something similar in you. That is the basic precept of The High Legal Road. That is why aggressive response to external aggression is not advised.

The two trees you named were new to me, so I looked them up in Wikipedia. Essentially, they represent heaven, earth and beneath earth; upper, middle, lower realms.

All realms are connected and reflect and effect all other realms, as above, so below, as below so above.

I did not agree for this discussion to be private, and I do not know what to do with that, so for now I am leaving it private.

You asked me if I would talk with you about inner castles work, and that is what I am doing.

Gloria Reiser

Sloan, I’m very aware of all this, and I am seeking to understand WHERE inside of myself there is an essence similar to that of B of A and Green Tree Servicing lurking. If it is within me, it’s well hidden.

I will say this: I believe there are times and situations, in which all it takes for evil to flourish is that good men do nothing. I’m not the do nothing, turn the other cheek type. I’m more the advocating for decency, honor, and respect type.

Yesterday, I spoke with a very nice representative at B of A who has told me that she is going to present our experience/case/situation at an upcoming meeting. She assured me there ARE people working within B of A who want customers to be offered good service.

Sloan Bashinsky

That is a good way to try to resolve this and perhaps bring about change in them, or not; the effort is what counts. However, you said, if you could zap them with a psychic attack, you would and you not feel guilty about it, and that was why I responded as I did.

Gloria Reiser

I know, Sloan. I’m past that feeling now. LOL! But at the time I wrote it, that IS where I was. You know Thor, the God of Thunder and Lightning?!? There must be a female equivalent. Maybe I was in Thunder Birds mode…. I dunno…. I think it was more vehement than Kali Rising…. good thing I don’t have access to a drone button, huh? Honest feeling though. And the path to KNOWing oneself involves not pretending a feeling that IS isn’t. It only lasted a few hours and probably was a remnant of the adrenaline and brain juice it took to prevail and escape from their clutches just in the nick of time.

Sloan Bashinsky

It looked to me like you were dead serious, and were challenging me.

Gloria Reiser

Why did you think I was challenging you? IT was B of A I was miffed at.

I am though, Sloan a Mystic AND a Magician. NOT a stage magician and NOT a ritual magic casing a circle, establishing quarters, calling in guardians Magician. Nope none of that is my style. Though I do not view ritual magicians as much different from persons of other “religions” who call upon assorted deities, or upon Jesus or Allah or Krishna, The Great White Fathers, ancestors, whomever.

My Magic is Mind Magic. Setting a focus and achieving what is necessary through focus, persistence and determination. Sometimes this only requires drawing on external forces and allies…. in other words having the skill set in place or available to accomplish what needs to be accomplished. But sometimes, manifesting also requires drawing on inner resources…. higher guidance…. intuition… qualities of persistence and determination…. to overcome and prevail.

If it is not meant to be for some reason, The Great Unknowable is entirely capable of stopping whatever from manifesting.

By the way… I’m also not a follower of Aleister Crowley… but I do understand and agree with a famous statement of his that has been grossly misinterpreted.

He said: “Do What Thou Wilt, Shall Be the Whole of the Law.” Most people erroneously think/believe he was saying “do whatever you damn well please.” He was not stating that at all, as explained in his writings, for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see and half a brain to understand.

He was saying that IF one acts in accordance with Higher Will…. that IS the whole of the divine Law. (I assume, regardless of what practical mundane mind might say/think, or man made rules/laws – getting in communication with Higher Will and acting on direction of that Higher Will is our duty).

In other words, he was advocating the doing of what you work at moment to moment, day to day…. listening, understanding the direction, the WILL of that which is Higher…. and acting upon it.

It’s not at all unlike what I do, though because I speak in a different spiritual dialect from you, it’s not always easy for either of us to understand each other. Therefore, important to move beyond words which may translate differently one individual to another, and toward the essence of experience.

Sloan Bashinsky

Jesus said it better than anyone I know of, “Not my, but thy will be done, O Lord.” If he’d had his way, there would have been no crucifixion, and perhaps no Christendom, and, I don’t suppose, inner castles work. My impression from what you have told me, it was exercise of your will, instead of Higher Will, that got you into this situation with Bank of America.

Gloria Reiser

You don’t remember the story of how this house came to me? It was definitely meant to be. And I would never have opted to have ANY business dealings with Bank of America but unfortunately our mortgage, like so many others got slurped up by them.

Best course is to not have a mortgage. But these days few have cash to purchase outright and in most cases, mortgage payments and insurance and taxes run far less than rents in equivalent properties. So mortgages used to be an overall ok deal. Until banks became too big to fail and bankers too big to jail.

Consider how HSBC bankers got off Scot free on laundering billions for international drug cartels. As a society we are guilty of allowing it to happen. But most of society is duped and enslaved to the point of not having time or awareness to effect change.

Sloan Bashinsky

I’ve given this my best shot Gloria. Just my opinion, magic and mysticism are not compatible.

Gloria Reiser

Within me they are. I’m a hybrid. Jesus said: ASK and you shall receive…knock and the door shall be opened…. As you believe.. Faith as in a grain of mustard seed..and more.

It’s ok if you don’t believe in magic, or the rightness of it. Agic does not require that you personally believe in it. Some who don’t believe have encountered magic and/or miracles in the form of coincidence and synchronicity.

Sloan Bashinsky

There is nothing to believe. I know magic exists. I have seen it used a lot. I have been used to try to persuade many people from using it, many were Christians who in prayer told God what to do, or asked God to do what they wanted. They didn’t seem to have any interest in simply asking that God’s will be done in a situation, whatever that will was.

Gloria Reiser

Well, I see you and I must agree to disagree concerning this one. God helps those who help themselves…. and I believe that involves utilizing our inner gifts as well as any outer world skills/knowledge/abilities.

Sloan Bashinsky

You continue to look outward, instead of first taking the beam out of your own eye; you continue to ignore the basic tenet of inner castles work. I told God last night, I hate to think that there is a Gloria in me, but it appears there is and she needs to be reminded: all women are crazy; there is nothing that can be done about it; never forget rules one and two. That’s why, Gloria, I rely on the angels to advise me what is God’s will, instead of presuming that I am smart and wise enough to know it. Sometimes I do know it, but usually I don’t. I do not agree to disagree with you. I simply disagree with you and you need to find someone else to discuss this with. I suggest God. Again. What I still don’t know yet is whether this is supposed to be a private or a public conversation. If it were my call, I would put it into the MM&M group, but I don’t know if that is God’s call, so I await the angels’ indication.

Gloria Reiser

How judgmental and presumptuous you are in ASSuming that I am not in communication with Higher Consciousness (what you refer to as God) even though you know my life story.

I have to discover WHERE in ME there is Sloan energy. I certainly need to find it and heal it. And that’s going to take one hell of a lot of Inner Castle work!

Sloan Bashinsky

It was you, Gloria, who asked me to talk about inner castle work you wanted to do. Reluctantly, I did what you asked of me. It has been very rough on me internally because you are not very far along internally, and I am absorbing a great deal of that in you, which always happens when I work something outside of me.
You wrote to me after MM&M went public,
Gloria Reiser
Jinni is in. Yikes! Now I have split personality… and it’s all your fault!!! LOL!
No, Gloria, it’s not all my fault. It’s not any my fault. It’s your split personality. You deal with it.

Gloria Reiser

Live and learn. I regret the moment I suggested that we as Mystics (in equal standing and respect) discuss Interior Castle work. I’d prefer at this point to pursue that on my own.

As for Jinni, you encouraged pen names for sharing’s in MM&M that a participant would prefer to have private, rather than available for FB to use however they might, as well as anyone else trolling FB for any reason. Obviously you don’t ‘get’ the growing concerns over FB privacy issues, else you would have set MM&M as Private.

Ciao!

Sloan Bashinsky
Equal standing and equal work?
Here is what you wrote to me:
Gloria Reiser
Sloan, I was really sorry to have to remove you from the group. You have no idea how much.
Gloria Reiser
Sorry, interrupted by a client call. I had also wanted to let you know that I do intend to begin the Interior Castle work…. and would like to talk with you about that if you are open to the idea of that.
Begin? I’ve been doing inner castle work non-stop since early 1987. It started off horrible, and became progressively more horrible.
Whatever is guiding you is not leveling with you, Gloria, about you. Perhaps because it knows you would not survive. Perhaps because it isn’t what you think it is. Perhaps some of both.
I encouraged pen names for MM&M, because the group would be open. If nobody showed up, so be it. I’m used to people not wanting to work hard internally, and I’m used to people not being interested in what I live day and night.
You furnished a pen name, but never used it and used your real name instead. You said you had split personality, which you thought was a joke, but it was your soul’s way of speaking straight to me though you.
You will not care to meet the Sloan in you, because he is pretty much like the Sloan outside of you.
Before lying down for a nap about an hour ago, I told the angels I needed to know whether or not I was suppose to publish this tread between you and me. I said it would not be necessary to beat me up over it, I was going at this in the way I had told Gloria to go about getting guidance; which is the way I go about it in all work assignments given to me. I said a simple indication one way or the other would do.
I dozed off, a woman said to me, “The Big Vulcan.” I awoke. At the top of the static home page of goodmorningbirmingham.com is a photo of Vulcan, a big cast iron blacksmith who stands on Red Mountain, looking over Birmingham. The daily post at that website is called “Today’s Vulcanite”. Since August 1995, I have associated Jesus with a great blacksmith.
It was because of this sort of output from you, Gloria, that Cathy decided she wanted nothing further to do with you. That was why I would not tell you how to get in touch with her, when I visited you and Marty in early March 2001. You went psychotic, attacked me viciously. I needed to come all that way to see that. It’s still in you, Gloria.
You can take what I tell you to heart, or you can keep throwing it and other stuff back at me. Remember, though, it was you who asked me last December in Key West, what did I think was the reason for your eye troubles years ago?, and I told you I had already told you and you didn’t believe me, and I didn’t want to get into that with you again.
It was you to said you were willing for me to try to show you your soul wound around your father you never knew, if such wound existed, and I told you how to go into it on your own, by asking God to take you into it, and you said no to that.
It was you who asked me to talk with you about inner castles work you wanted to begin, and I made it very clear I did not want to be a part of that, unless you leveled with the other group about what was going on between us, by sharing it with them, which you declined to do.
The only people you know who used the term “inner castles” work, or at least the only two people you have told me used that term, Teresa Avila and Carolyn Myss, were/are Roman Catholic mystics. That is positive indication that your course is through the Christian Trinity in its true sense, which is only distantly related, if related at all, to the church sense.
I don’t expect you to accept any of this; I didn’t expect you to accept it when I told it to you several times before. You are convinced, have been since I have know you, that the Universe levels with you. You are mistaken, Gloria. If the Universe leveled with you, none of this conversation would have occurred.

Gloria Reiser

Yes. I am still convinced that I am in ongoing dialog with a level of Higher Wisdom. Do I care whether you believe that or not? No. Do I care if you think your angels are higher than whatever wisdom source I might be in dialog with? Nope. Nada.

I approach all mystics with respect. I’m not putting you down, even though you persist in attempting to put me down. You’ve been a mystic since 1987…. I believe I was born with mystical tendencies.

With regard to inner castle work, geesch do I get tired of having to repeat myself – I first took it up in 2008….. set down, even though you persist in attempting to put me down. You’ve been a mystic since 1987…. I believe I was born with mystical tendencies.

With regard to inner castle work, geesch do I get tired of having to repeat myself – I first took it up in 2008….. set it aside for awhile in 2010 when my mother’s health was seriously failing and the outer world was calling upon me with other obligations… picked it up again in 2011…. took a break in 2012. You are not correct in assuming this is a strictly Roman Catholic path. It is not. If you were doing Inner Castle work you would learn that right quick.

I’ve probably addressed all that I need to here, except for a couple more items:

1) I will remind you again that after we brought you to Quincy in 2001 for the purpose of teaching Marty and I organic gardening skills in exchange for free room and board in an apartment…. after you arrived, YOU instructed us that the experience was NOT to be about literal organic gardening, but SOUL GARDENING and that YOU were the Organic Soul Gardener, who in short would tell us what to do, when to do it and how to do it. Well, no thank you!!

2) When you alluded to my eye problem from some decades back while we were in Key West, my query to you concerning your take on that was not about me being in search of some deep wisdom from you. I was simply interested in hearing how you had spun it.

It seems you believe everything that is said or that happens in life is about you…. and others needing to be “fixed” by you.

Good luck with that. We all have work we can benefit from doing concerning ourselves. I’m comfortable with the track I’m on.

Again, I regret suggesting we discuss mystical experiences, as you seem to have little respect for anyone’s path or experience except your own.

Oh wait, there is one more thing… I took your advice and have been doing inner work in an attempt to discover IF I have a soul wound as a result of not knowing my biological father. So far, nothing has come forward. It’s interesting that you continually overlook that fact that I’ve mentioned that I am aware of certain soul wounding in relationship with my mother. And that I’ve done intensive work concerning that issue.

So your deal is that you disregard soul work I’m aware of, and encourage distraction in another direction. And you omit here that you demanded that I ask GOD as in God the Father of the Bible… demanding I work within your guidance system while encouraging me to scrap my own.

The God the Father of the Hebrew Bible may or may not be the same as the Great Unknowable Divine That Has No Name and that I am comfortable with being in dialog with. That Divine Wisdom source has never once instructed me to address it as God the Father (ala the Hebrews). And indeed there are those of the Hebrew

Hebrews). And indeed there are those of the Hebrew religious stream who believe the name of God is not to be known or spoken. Jewish people sometimes write it as G-D. But how do we know that that God the Father of the Bible may not just as easily have been the lead officer in a troop of inter-dimensional explorers who set down on earth and created man?

If that be the case, that does not mean there is no supreme divine wisdom source… it just means that those of that belief system are like the fish in an aquarium who may mistake the individual who cleans the tank and tosses in the fish food as God. Divine Intelligence may reside far beyond the archetype you like to insist others worship.

Sloan Bashinsky

I did not bring up anything about your old eye trouble, when you were in Key West. You brought it up, as I wrote earlier. If you don’t remember something that important, what else important don’t you remember? Oh, maybe the dream you had three years before I came to Quincy, and in it you, Marty and I were going to an organic gardening conference, and I was a master organic gardener, and you and Marty were new to it. You are not being told nearly as much by your guidance as you want to believe, is all I said. I could care less about trying to teach you, or anyone, anything. I wish the angels would kill me, so I don’t have to do this anymore.

Gloria Reiser

Might be a good idea for you to proofread and edit your GoodMorningBirmingham.com  blog post for today.  You have plunked a paragraph of your own comments concerning your experience in the middle of one of my comments…. and for those who can’t readily decipher what you’ve done, it reads plenty weird.  You’ve also repeated fragments of a couple  of my comments…

Sloan Bashinsky

Thanks. It is not easy to scroll and copy FB dialogue, and I wondered if I had doubled up some of what you wrote about Bank of America. I hope I got that fixed. I saw one part where I had in italics what I had written, which made it look like I was quoting in italics what you had written. Maybe I got all of that fixed.

As yesterday passed, the awful feeling from the day and night before eased and my bowel released and I had a pretty easy day for me. Historically, that has meant I was moving though a rough work assignment, prelude to something else coming in.

Gloria Reiser

I’m glad you are feeling better, Sloan.  At least for now.  Hopefully there will be some bit of respite, before that “something else” hits full bore.

Sloan Bashinsky

Thanks. Something else historically hits full bore a day or maybe two days after the last one clears out. Parallel are ongoing multiple work assignments not presently in acute phase.

I can somewhat relate; am starting to realize that I have a soul work challenge I’ve left riding/drifting and that is currently surfacing for review and perhaps reworking or resolution.

How come some folks get to “retire” at 50, and play bridge (I’d prefer poker) and golf and work in their gardens, and read, and (female here) knit sweaters, spend time with grandchildren … and yet for myself, psychic or no, retirement seems not to be an option, short of death.

I still want to be the trust fund babe….. the princess with a castle!!! hahaha and more importantly NO WORRIES….. such a simple thing I ask for. And The Universe just laughs.

P.S.  I suppose at my age, realistically, I’m beyond princess mode.  Would have to be the Queen Mother!!!!  :O  :/

Death appears to be the only way out for me, since I can’t drink anymore and the other drugs never really appealed to me.

My experience with the angels is, regardless of what I have or don’t have, they know how to keep me working as hard as possible and they really don’t seem to care what I want.

For me, while it seems that the Universe is insistent upon keeping me on the treadmill involving work, as long as I want to be able to have a roof over my head and eat…. there is an UP side to it that is equally  strongly obvious:  As long as I keep to the course and do the work – which involves an interesting mix of the analytical (bookkeeping/ accounting for Marty’s business and my own) and the Intuitive (my own work)  – as long as I do that, there seems to be also a clear and protective guiding force, that generally redirects and/or rescues me from severe hardship or harm.

I don’t claim to understand it.  It’s something I see/observe playing out in my life… am grateful I am able to at least somewhat comprehend  the pattern in play …… and yet, I don’t claim to understand the why’s and where for’s of the benefit of being held to the long work hours.  Apparently higher forces don’t recognize such concepts as:  “retirement” or even “semi-retirement”.

P.S.  The blog still has the weirdness going.  In the post where I am talking about feeling I was born with mystical tendencies…. there is a paragraph inserted that is your comment about having not been born a mystic but trained…  a mind scrambler to read as posted.

Okay, I finally found and removed it. It was a sentence fragment. Thanks, again.

I wrote a while back into the MM&M group that I was not born a mystic, but far along in life was apprehended by Jesus and Archangel Michael and was trained by them, and by others they farmed me out to. I was heaps not fun, still is heaps not fun.

Today is turning out to be another poison day, seems from nap dreams I just came out of before noon today to be related to something else.

I have been told/shown many times that I have this experience to accelerate, deepen, widen my own soul, and if anyone else gains from knowing of my experience, or having to put up with me, that’s fine; but it nobody else is affected, that’s not my concern.

I engage a lot of external dramas, many in the Florida Keys, some beyond the Keys, some small pond stuff, some big pond stuff, I suppose it all reflects something back to me I need to take a look at, but years ago the angels seemed to shift their focus with me, by boring in on my doing what they give me to do, in the way I am trained to respond and with their advice and course corrections, most of which comes in dreams, but they have several other ways to get my undivided attention pronto, if they wish. I wrote of that many times in many venues.

I’m pondering something that keeps coming to me about something else the angels seem to be doing with me, but it’s so darn egotistical sounding that I’m reluctant to say it. Maybe later.

Sloan, you got some of it… but there’s more.  Here’s a copy and paste.  That last line is your comment, not mine, and reads weird in the midst of my commentary, as you can see : ———————————————————-

Yes. I am still convinced that I am in ongoing dialog with a level of Higher Wisdom. Do I care whether you believe that or not? No. Do I care if you think your angels are higher than whatever wisdom source I might be in dialog with? Nope. Nada.

I approach all mystics with respect. I’m not putting you down, even though you persist in attempting to put me down. You’ve been a mystic since 1987…. I believe I was born with mystical tendencies.

Being born with mystical tendencies is very different from being trained into being mystic. I was not born with mystical tendencies of which I was aware. ———————————————————–

The “I was not born with mystical tendencies of which I was aware.” part  are from one of your comments, not mine…. or it may actually be that that whole paragraph is yours…. I can’t tell any longer!!!!!!  And maybe it doesn’t even matter. :-)

Okay, I found and took it out, too. I’m maybe the worst proof reader in world history.

What I have been pondering some lately, and there has been no blowback yet from the angels, is they are using my experiences on this world as market research, to see how people respond to me; perhaps the angels are trying to decide what to do with humanity, or parts of it; perhaps they are trying to develop another way of trying to reach humanity, or parts of it. I can’t imagine my experiences being a proxy for someone living in poverty in India or Africa, or someone living in lots of other places and conditions on this planet; but I can see my experiences being proxies for people with education, church people, New Age people, people in other spiritual disciplines with which I have had enough experience to create a proxy situation; and politicians and elected officials; and psychiatry and psychology and various other “healing arts”; and the law, taxation, business. Despite bright spots and bright moments, it looks to me that internal development mostly is not happening; that it’s a near total external experience, and near total external attempt to manipulate life; and that, to me, is absence of the feminine, absence of the creative, spiritual devolution, which I have opined many times since being asked in my sleep in March 2004, “What do you think of the species?” When I engage something externally, I do not expect anything to change. I engage it because it is given to me to engage. If something changes, great; but I am long-used to seeing what looks like no change to me. Maybe change is underway in spirit, but that is not shown to me.
