GUIDES
Q: I would like to ask you with what words I can speak to my guides. Is it sufficient to speak to them in my thoughts?
My child, if I were here in physical form before you what words would you use? Use those very same words. We don’t need words well thought out, we don’t expect from you a lot of reverence. We want you to think of us as your closest, closest friend and speak to us thus. Do not think of us as higher beings that require reverence and awe from you. We don’t require that. We want to be in your hearts all the time. So whether you speak the words out aloud or merely as a thought, we can hear them equally well. So whatever is comfortable with you, use those words. But remember you are speaking to a friend.
Q : I am delighted to hear this, Sir. I have always felt more comfortable using words like ‘Hi, pal’ or ‘buddy’.
Of course, my son. And I will tell you why I am asking you to treat us as friends. You see, my children, when you look up to us you begin to expect a lot from us and when we don’t deliver (as you might put it) then you get disappointed and very often people turn away from us. But if you treat us, as my son said, as a pal or buddy, your expectations are not so high. You expect from us what you expect from a dear friend and you will forgive us as quickly as you would a dear friend. Now you, might wonder why WE need forgiveness? We don’t, but you need to forgive us because you get very easily annoyed at us when we do not do what you need done. So, think of us as a friend who is able to see what is good and what is right and therefore sometimes the work is done and sometimes it is not. And if it is not done and you get angry, please feel free to tick us off. It will not bother us at all, but it will make you feel much lighter. But remember that once you have ticked us off very soundly, then forgive us because forgiveness is again an addition to your little bit of vanity. It makes you feel good, doesn’t it? So forgive us, and then once again we can be friends and start afresh.
