My dear friends...

As you know, we have been discussing here the moments in life that I have called The Holy Experience. And in last week’s installment I said that there are ten instruments by which any person may have such an experience. I said that the Ten Instruments are divided into two types: Physical Tools (described fully in the preceding chapter) and Spiritual Tools (which I will describe here). I have alternately called these two types The Five Tools of Awareness, and The Five...

My dear friends...

Last week we continued our exploration of The Holy Experience by focusing on the fifth tool with which we can achieve this, the tool of explaining. This is when we explain to others what we have come to understand as a result of using the first four tools.

We continue our look at that tool this week.

It has been said that we teach what we choose to learn. I choose to learn more and more about how the Universe works, about Divinity and the Essence of all of life, about...

Reader question:

Dear Neale... My desire is to help heal the world and live a life of love, happiness, and abundance. What do I need to do to accomplish this?

Neale Responds:

Dear Friend...Conversations with God tells us that the fastest way to achieve or acquire or accomplish something for ourselves is to help another to achieve or acquire or accomplish the same thing. What you wish to experience, cause another to experience. This is a point we made in last week’s Bulletin, when...

My dear friends...

As you know, we have been embarked across this past year on a wonderful journey here in the Weekly Bulletin, exploring what I have called The Holy Experience.

We interrupted that series of articles for some special observations over the holidays—notations from within the Conversations with God experience about Christmas and New Year’s.

This week in this space we return to our look at The Holy Experience. As you know if you have been reading along, we have...

Dear Diana…I picked this letter out of the stack because it fit perfectly with the longer bulletin message this week from the book The Holy Experience. Diana, to find a good life partner, BE a good life partner to another. If you do not have "another" to be a good life partner with, than be a good life partner to everyone. Act as if everyone was your spouse! Act as if everyone was your lover! Do this for three months and I promise you that you'll have plenty of people coming to...

My dear friends...

I would like to share with you today a big secret...

Declaring that you are having The Holy Experience right now requires that you refuse to step into Tomorrow before Tomorrow comes. This means that we must give up our habit of "future-izing."

Future-izing is a common human trait. All people look into the future, their own future in particular, and begin to construct realities around that. They imagine what is going to happen and how it is going to happen--and,...

Reader question:

Dear Neale... How can the current society ever forgo the use of punishment as a means to prevent damaging behaviour, when all of its people are not yet living by the triangular code of awareness, honesty and responsibility? How can the police force effectively do its work when there is not the tool of punishment to do it with? Most of what the police does 'works' to a certain extent because they can resort to punishment in the form of fines and sentences. Without it...

Reader question:

Dear Neale...In Conversations with God, God (through you as part of God) says that you are a messenger and that this is not an easy calling. What would you say to others who might have a similar calling? 

Specifically, how do you keep the fires of creativity going knowing that so many people just don't get the message? And how do you feel connected to others when you spend long hours writing and researching, especially when you are just starting on that journey and you...

My dear friends...

I want to say a few more on Awareness, before I move to this week's exploration...

Awareness is a very, very important aspect of Life. I think it's an important quality to nurture and to grow. If we can grow in Awareness, I think that we grow in one of the most vital ways. I think that Awareness is Vitality. I think it is Spiritual Vitality. I think that one is "spiritually vital" when one is Aware---and I think that when one is Aware one becomes "spiritually vital."...

Reader question:

Dear Neale... You write a lot in your books about giving, giving, giving to others. But when do I get something in return? It seems that all I do is GIVE. And frankly, I’m getting a little angry. Or at least, frustrated. Because I never get anything in return. What’s up here? And how do I get past this negativity that’s starting to come over me? Thanks,

Carolyn M., Boise, Idaho.

Neale Responds:

My dear Carolyn: Thank you for your letter, and for your...
