Notable Lightworker Eydie Kaufman

Eydie Kaufman

Eydie is one of those extraordinary people who bridge both worlds.
She is an attorney specializing in contract law for 10+ years, and yet, she has a wonderful sense of humor and is an extraordinary channel.
She presented twice here at FGC during the Lightworker Coming Home Week.
Her topics were "Legal Tips for Lightworkers" and "Connecting with your Higher Self".

Here is her Bio:

Eydith Kaufman has been an attorney practicing in the field of civil litigation for almost ten years in the San Diego area.
She graduated George Washington University, then University of San Diego Law School, both with high honors. Her practice has included multi-million dollar appeals and encompasses state and federal practice.

Ms. Kaufman is also a practicing hypnotherapist, certified in hypnosis and neurolinguistic programming. When not working, lightworking, or meditating, she can often be found riding her Harley, walking her dog, or playing her guitar while singing badly.

We were honored to hear her present here at FGC during the Lightworker Coming Home week. She gave a talk on legal tips for Lightworkers, an informative talk about what we need to know when we start a business, especially in metaphysics or alternative medicine. She shared her personal story about her legal career and her Spiritual awakening and path. She was so down to earth and easy to understand, and we had a lengthy question and answer period.
Then....we had the honor of hearing her channel Eloheim. The information was beautiful and each one of us was addressed, answering our questions.
I am pleased to see her whenever she comes to talking circle here at FGC, as her schedule permits. I certainly count her as Family. I hope you get to meet her soon as well.

Message from Mary Jones:

“My Gift”

There are many times I think about how humanity has viewed God, and how to connect with the Divine. There are so many ways, in so many cultures throughout history. There are so many names for God as well. I am also amazed at how there are so many people who live their lives spiritually, but have no religion, or even believe in God. It makes me think that we all have an unbreakable connection to God and his unconditional Love even if we don’t believe He exists!
I feel we are all aspects of God having a human experience, forgetting our true nature as we are born on this earth, exploring with free will/free choice. As I contemplate on these things, I am continually drawn to the fact that there are so many ways mankind has found ways to connect to God within, and there are so many commonalities that reveal themselves.
Many of us relate to God in the only ways we can in this 3D existence, however, I feel we are getting closer to being able to experience God in ways that transcend our 5 senses, and transcend concepts of what this connection should look like.
I feel that connecting to the Divine directly is no longer confined to the religious leaders, the mystics etc, we all are capable of this.
How do we connect with the Divine? What process do we go thru? Sometimes I think we forget how to, and we forget how we are saturated in the Love of the Divine no matter where we are or what we are doing, every minute of the day. I feel that it can be as natural as breathing. God loves us unconditionally!
Many find their connection in prayer, meditation, ceremony, or being in nature, and experience it in their own ways.
I thought I would share with you what I have experienced at times. It is offered to you as a gift from me, for your discernment.
To follow is a poor at best...description of what I have experienced at times, as I am unable to find the words that can describe it accurately.
I’m starting to see that I have a gift to share from my heart, how I connect directly with the Divine within my Self. The essence of heart energy is like a fire with colors that cannot be described, they are not of this dimension.
To step outside of myself and let go of me, of any thought, releasing all definition of myself, and the world I live in. I release my body, all sensation, all expectations and enter into the void, this space of Divine potential, the beginning of all things, all expression, all form. I am one with All That Is, I Am everywhere, and in void. All things, all no-things. That which has been expressed and that which is to come. No time, no space.
No words can describe, for there is no parallel experience to relate it to. Profound peace, all knowing, Grace, inexpressible profound unconditional Love. I AM.
Surrounded by Light, music that defies description, beautiful harmonies, tones, and sensations. Colors, vibrations, blend with All That Is, are All That Is, expressed with visual and musical poetry. I take in many vibrations, experiences with senses that do not exist on earth and cannot be described.

I am surrounded by many, Angelic energies, we communicate with Love energy, brilliant radiations, emanating to and from my energetic form. I feel expanded and blended with all universes, all that is, no limits, extending beyond the expressed into all unfolded potentials. Everywhere, nowhere, limitless abundance in all things.

How can I bring even the smallest portion of this experience back to share with others?
To sing, expressing vibrations in tone, pitch, rhythm, words that defy direct translation. This serves as a carrier wave. My Heart of Hearts aches with the hope of offering a connection to this beautiful experience for others. In song, in spoken words, with joy, love, and laughter. Love and joy are Heart languages. Many energies woven together, those we can hear, see, and feel in our hearts, and if we stretch ourselves, we can begin to have a knowing of this Love energy with senses outside of our physical selves, senses that have no name or description here on earth. We can begin to touch upon experiencing our true Selves, with those associated attributes existing outside of time, space, and physical reality. We get a brief glimmer of Home.

A beautiful memory comes to me like a sweet fragrance upon a gentle warm breeze.
As a little girl, I would take solitary walks, long walks, getting lost in the natural world around me, losing track of time, forgetting what was before, with no thought of what was to come. I was in a space of just being. I would climb to the top of a tree, my face pointed up towards the sun, feeling its warmth on my skin, and I would sing. I have no memory of any particular song, it was more the memory of the feeling of singing to the sun, the sky, to this great non judgmental expanse that I climbed up to meet. It was like climbing up into a portal into another world, away from this one. I remember Light, warmth, a sense of peace, protected, cherished, loved without measure.
I know now that this is the same experience I have now as an adult, but through a child’s perceptions, textured by passing time in memory.
I believe we all carry such experiences, and as we are all aspects of the Divine uniquely expressed in form, our experiences will carry their own unique way of manifesting into our awareness.
At first this concept may seem so foreign, but if we let go of any expectation of how it is to look or feel, we just allow, and all of a sudden we get one of these wonderful “a-haa” experiences! “It was there all along, I just didn’t see it”.
We feel the familiarity of it, like an old friend that loves us unconditionally, always there for us, that we forgot about. Sometimes it takes a walk in nature, or along the shoreline, somewhere that assists us to let go of the everyday mind clutter and remember.

I share these thoughts with love in service, for your discernment.

Guest Article by Cynthia Sue Larson

Guest Article by Zeyneb Umit Belbez

A CHAT

It’s true that I am a graduate of the prestigious Robert College, a board certified internist, a PhD student. These are my guest room identities. Whenever the guests leave, I kick them off like shoes which hurt my calluses. I have no shortage of identities, thank god. I’ve been a leftist, a pilgrim, and a drunkard. I’ve been Dear Ebby, cook, mom, granddaughter, bookworm, heavy worker, pianist, healer, gardener, always student, sometimes teacher... As best as I could. Enthusiastic, romantic, angry, idealist, serious, curious, depressive, practical, comic, adventurous... One by one, and holding tightly onto each one.

My daughter Nazli didn’t let The Complete Poems of E.E. Cummings off her hand. Not metaphorically, but literally. Carried it to restaurants, to friends’ homes, from Istanbul to Ankara on weekends. The book was a hardcover one, weighed about 4 pounds. I decided the child was using it as a dumbbell. I kept saying ‘What else is that book good for? This man doesn’t even know English!’; but then one day I happened to flip through the pages.

so many selves(so many fiends and gods
each greedier than every)is a man
(so easily one in another hides;
yet man can,being all,escape from none)
....

-how should a fool that calls him ‘‘I’’ presume
to comprehend not numerable whom?

Hmm... As I read, the weight of the girl’s dumbbell multiplied and sank deep down inside. I felt compelled to invite all my fiends and gods. I relaxed my grip and let go of those I was holding on tightly. Let them all exist, not one by one, but all together; side by side or one on top of the other. I expanded.

What happened? It was Good. It was good to be both young and old. Living simultaneously the enthusiasm of one, with what the other had accumulated throughout the years. The leftist and the pilgrim were after the same quest. The teacher was learning from teaching. The healer’s hands were playing with the same frequencies as the pianist’s.

This crowd blended together beautifully. And they started to grow and expand as they blended. Each by itself, and also, all altogether. Maybe because each shed her light on the shadow of the other. With the young one’s light, the old one could see her passion which remained young all along. What the old one reflected, helped the young one see her hidden potentials. All benefited from this merging. Most of all, the one who still kept calling herself ‘I’.

But then a side effect of this invitation emerged. The crowd started talking all at once. Not only those whom I have invited and accepted to ‘I’, but also those many others who were still on the waitlist. All want to have a say; want to step into light, to display themselves, to be seen. Do they want to get on stage for an applause? No, I don’t think they care about applauses. It is as if they want to be aware that they exist, by making known that they exist. So they started to tell their stories. Through ‘I’. Seeing that the crowd was getting larger and had no intention to shut up, and being ‘auntie, the storyteller’ wasn’t sufficient anymore, I decided to write.

Don’t say ‘so you now became a writer, after all them other identities’ No, that’s not true. I know my limits. All I know about writing is some basic grammar. And at those old days when time kept flowing lazily and we were sending our greetings by postcards instead of e-mails, I couldn’t even write greetings without a first and a second draft. Let’s not call it writing, but rather, carrying the chat from rooms to pages.
.
Welcome to my page! Someone from my crowd will host you. Today the curious child would hop on the page, tomorrow the mom, whose motto is ‘set them free, let god take care’, would come by. Maybe the one who’s shouting ‘c’mon, get ready for the quantum leap’ or the one who’s dying to report the ordinary miracles of life would push the others back and come forward. How am I to know which one will appear when – I’ve set them all free and let them have their say.

Now, take the stories they tell, but don’t take them seriously. Take them and cut them to pieces, put them together again as to your liking, add more pieces from elsewhere and create a story which you would enjoy. Or play with them like children coloring painting books – joyfully coloring inside/outside the lines with your own colors. But they’ve got to be your own colors.

Because no matter which key this polyphonic crowd sounds, the recurring chorus of the song is always the same: Be yourself. One of them is hooked onto the poet of the dumbbell-like book: ‘the poet says- may I be I is the only prayer--not may I be great or good or beautiful or wise or strong’. Another one quotes a Hadith- ‘one who knows his self, knows his Lord’. The one who is crazy about such nonsense as the New Earth and multidimensionality, nonstop keeps saying ‘get hold of your own power.’ The mom protests, ‘don’t push and pull them children around, would you? leave them free.’

See, they actually are no different from each other. It’s just so that there be diversity. Like life. Like Here- that some call the world of multiplicity.

Welcome here. We have all been welcomed here.

What's Happening at FGC :

Channel Circle expanding into Talking Circle:
Evenings if enlightened discussion, growth, channeling and healing

Some of you may have noticed that I have changed the Channel circle evenings to Talking Circle; evenings if enlightened discussion, growth, channeling and healing, as that is what they have been evolving in to. It is out nature, the nature of the Divine to change and grow.

On my path of self discovery, I am finding that with channeling we are opening up to our greater Selves, in fact I think any form of inspiration is. As unique facets of the Divine, we all have our own ways to shine, to express our individuality in how we live, think, feel, and interact with the world, yet we all are part of the One.

I have been so delighted to see how so many Lightworkers have been evolving their own special forms of teaching, channeling, and healing. To have the courage to explore their own individuality and courage to manifest their unique ways of expressing their Spiritual path and sharing it in a group is beautiful to see. It is wonderful to see new faces as well!

In these evenings we have a space to talk about all the changes we are going thru as individuals, and globally. This of course involves eating chocolate! I have found that folks rebel if I don’t have Dove available!! These are evenings of sharing as well. I have the DVD player available for sharing special films that focus on the topics many of us are wanting to learn more about.

I want to provide a sacred space for all of us to continue to evolve, at our own pace, in our own way, and to feel comfortable to share their gifts of channeling healing & teaching. I feel a sense of community is important, especially in these times. Come join us!

We have many more wonderful events in the works for this year!

If you have something you would like to see happening here at FGC, please let me know!

Jorge Luis Delgado

was trained by Kallawayas shamen of the northeast Lake Titicaca region, the lineage of the Amautas and the Wise Ones of the Andes. He has also studied with and been trained by the Q'ero elders of the Cusco region, who are considered the last remaining descendents of the Incas. Jorge is the re-discoverer of Aramu Muru Doorway, an interdimensional portal near Lake Titicaca. Jorge is a founding member of The Brotherhood of the Solar Disc which is an Andean esoteric society, headquarted at Titicaca. The dedication of this group is to share unconditional love through connection with the Golden Disc. This is brought to the Andes by the Lemurian Master Aramu Muru.

Jorge Luis believes that this Pachacuti (a time when the world is being turned upside down and a new consciousness is emerging) is a time to go within and heal the wounds of the past both individually and collectively. He is a "way-shower" who shares ancient and hidden knowledge to assist in the healing of those who are ready. He is the author of Andean Awakening , An Inca Guide to Mystical Peru

For the past 20 years, Jory Adamson, M.A. has practiced as a psychotherapist, Reiki Master/Teacher and spiritual counselor. As an energy practitioner, she specializes in clearing the luminous energy field around the body that connects to wounds held in the chakras as well as providing energetic chelation treatments to facilitate cellular healing. For many years, she has led a spiritual group dedicated to meditation, prayer and personal and planetary transformation.
Her passion for the healing traditions of indigenous people led her to study and teach Peruvian shamanism based on the Q'ero of the Andes. For several years, she has been leading groups in both North and South America for those interested in a deeply spiritual experience of the sacred sites, symbology and knowledge of the ancient ones. Her journey has led her to become initiated into the Rites of Passage of a Mesa Carrier: one who is a keeper of the earth medicines, a ceremonial leader and a teacher of the Medicine Wheel. She makes her home in both northern New Mexico and Southern California.
