The feeling of spiritual fulfillment easily flows into a wish to teach or share with others, but what makes a person ready to take such a step?
This man really wants to know his soul and how this might enhance others’ happiness.This is a dialogue full of fine detail as John describes the soul, how it develops, and all that must harmonize to manifest its value in our life, with others.
Q: I just need to meet you and also get connected, and I need to know more about my soul.
John: Your soul is the highest level of form in the unseen that you have. It’s a level of form that precedes your being, and is of greater value than your being. All of the levels of your being are perfect forms of you. Your soul is the level of unseen form that represents your evolution as awareness.
Q: Can I enhance a little more, and more?
John: Your soul develops by you, awareness, being one with what you know, one with deepest knowing within; being one with what you know, but particularly within your self and within your life, while under pressure and while in difficulty.
Q: The pressures are difficulties forever, only when we think it’s a pressure. Can I enhance it to everyone as a happiness? Where could I start that?
John: What you most deeply know the truth of, as awareness and right into your core, is to absolutely relax, to be rested, quieted, and nurturingly have need of nothing. That enables you to be awareness, pure. You don’t need any of your forms, seen or unseen. You don’t need the forms of your self and your personality for you to be what you really are as awareness, and you don’t need any of the forms of your being. You don’t even need your soul for you to be awareness, pure. You being that is what develops your soul.
Q: The body is different from the soul, but both are parallel, like rails. So will my soul be able to sustain the force of my body to enhance my ability?
John: By you having self-awareness more than personality-awareness, by you having heart-awareness more than self-awareness, and you having being-awareness more than heart-awareness. And then, perhaps, even having soul-awareness more than being-awareness. That is you, awareness, being what you really are from the innermost outwards: from the innermost out into all of your unseen forms and all of your seen forms, all the way out into all of the practicalities of your life.
That means that you are then living embodying what is eternal, all the way out into your life. That has presence in everything that you’re doing. That is the presence in your mind. It is that presence that governs your mind. It determines your mind and governs your mind. That makes everything that is yours – all of your forms – belong to what precedes, belong to what is first.
It doesn’t require understanding. It doesn’t require learning. It doesn’t require a practice. It doesn’t require techniques. It doesn’t require a path. What it requires is you being this (John opens and extends his hand) from your innermost, outwards. It’s intuitive to what you really are. It doesn’t come from your self. It doesn’t come from your mind. It doesn’t come from your body. It does come from your being. But it most especially comes from the core of what you really are, the core of awareness, pure. Its core is meaning, not the meaning of something. It is that which enables you, from your innermost all the way through your being, out into your self and your life to relate to meaning, the meaning of something. It’s what enables you to relate to meaning in something, to meaning in others. It’s because you are meaning that you relate to meaning.
When you are profoundly at rest within as awareness, without using any of your forms to be that restedness; that you don’t need to quiet your mind or your body for you, awareness, to be rested. You can be rested awareness in the midst of any kind of conditioned self, any kind of upbringing, any kind of past. You can be rested awareness in the midst of any state of mind, any kind of treatment of life to you and of others to you. There isn’t anything in your self, anything in your past, anything outside of your self that prevents you.
Q: For the soul to reside in the body, the body needs a protection. Is that true?
John: For the wellbeing of your body, yes. But not for the wellbeing of you.
Q: Yes, yes.
John: Your body requires nurture for your body to live. You don’t need your body for you to be what nurture is. You have need of nothing.
Q: Because relieving pain for others is also an enhancement to the others, the area of the soul to be clean for it to be at its own liberty to live. Body needs a soul to live and soul needs a place to live.
John: To be able to live here, yes.
Q: So to synchronize these two both have to be in harmony.
John: Awareness and direct knowledge: not mental knowledge, knowledge that is inherent to awareness. Awareness and direct knowledge, awareness and meaning, awareness and knowing, awareness being at rest in directly knowing meaning. And awareness being nothing, at home in nothing and nobody. The harmony is at the most fundamental level, ultimately before all of your forms. At very least, harmony between you, awareness, and your heart.
Q: I think that if the body and soul are in harmony, that love is to be loved. Is that right?
John: If the harmony is at that depth, you won’t be loving love. You will be love from the deepest within before love has any kind of face, before love is even a stream, before love is even a movement in your forms. When you love something or someone, then you are love from within your person and your self. When you are love from within your being, there is no love of someone; you are love with another. There you are both one being.
Q: Any other progressions?
John: Oneness within moves outwards. It moves outwards because you are in a body. What matters is that oneness lands in your humanness. It’s the ease of your humanness in your self and in your life that enables you to not be separate and to not move as what’s separate.
Your humanness is your most accessible level of connectivity: nurturing connectivity with your self, with others, and with everything outside of your self. Wherever you are not in your humanness, you fool your self; being separate while perhaps thinking that you’re not. Where you are in your humanness, you really are, nurturingly, not separate. Humanness doesn’t relate to individuality. Humanness relates to connectivity. Humanness relates to the very real sameness in everyone.
Q: Can I take it as a fineness of the soul?
John: As a manifestation of the value of your soul in your self, in your life, with others.
Q: I wish you guide me every moment. Consciously, unconsciously. Where I walk through as a protection. Thank you so much.
The feeling of spiritual fulfillment easily flows into a wish to teach or share with others, but what makes a person ready to take such a step?
This conversation highlights the difference between awakening and full embodiment: the first is easily come by, but the second is rare and requires an unusual depth of character.
An unfamiliar depth of love has opened in this person. It feels scary and likely to change her life. What’s happening and where will it take her?
What makes the world exist, and how can a person live and work in this life without participating in a matrix of illusion? In this short, direct conversation John describes how it’s possible to live in the world from our deepest heart and be only real, letting everything pass away that will pass when we die.
How is it possible to stay in your heart with those things in this world you really don’t feel okay about? John’s answer reveals what creates disturbance within, and how to move past it.
This questioner asks John about going home within, to what we really are. Together, they travel through the levels of personality, the self, the nervous system, the mind, all the way to our real purpose of being here. It’s a lively dialogue, full of real answers.
• The purpose of being in a body
• Becoming a pure being, living the real in everyday life
• You as awareness: like a newborn baby
• A core okayness with what is outside your control
• As a being, you are not vulnerable to anything
• Your being is safe, and you are safe in your being
• The purpose of the universe
• Intimate connectivity of meaning and essence
• When you are in your heart, you cannot help but give
• Real relationship: a partnership in givenness
“My sole purpose is to be, in life, what we are after we’ve died. Through openness and softness of heart and core-splitting honesty at any personal cost, I live as that while actualizing the same in others I meet. I am available as a resource for anyone who recognizes and values this way of being.”
– John de Ruiter
