“The more you sit and go inside, the more whatever that is that knows how to breathe us and sleep us and awaken us and digest food and to heal us, and to bring forward love, is going to be there more and more as a present, everyday, ongoing reality.”<\/em> – John-Roger<\/p>\n

The following article is taken from a seminar that John-Roger gave in 1992 called Out of the Silence<\/a>.\u00a0 It can also be found as a video excerpt in the compilation Living Love \u2013 The Door to the Consciousness of Soul.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Watch what patterns you hold in your mind, because you\u2019re going to get more of those. If you want anger, hold an anger pattern and pretty soon the anger starts to hold you. You start to hold love patterns; pretty soon the love pattern starts to hold you.<\/p>\n

But before it can hold you, it\u2019s probably got to go through despair, through your frustration, through your senses of humiliation, and certainly the sense of shame that we have because of something. I know, we all must have done something that is bad, that is wrong, that we should feel shame about. Well, see, I just can\u2019t buy into that because none of us has a guidebook that said “here\u2019s how you run your life.” Anybody get one when you came on the planet? Was there a warranty with you where we could return you, or… Well, the only one I know that\u2019s probably the best is the Bible. And I tell people, \u201cRead it, but don\u2019t go crazy about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

And there\u2019s another good book, too. It\u2019s called the Kabala. And I could go back through all sorts of different religious places and say, \u201cHere\u2019s some pretty good guidebooks.\u201d But you may find out yours isn\u2019t there. And so, what you have to do is take from them where the guidance is that opens for you.<\/p>\n

I did this years and years and years and years and years ago, and found out the inner guidance is very easy to access. It\u2019s just very easy. Jesus Christ said, \u201cYou receive not because you ask not.\u201d Now listen, either you\u2019re going to make the guy a liar, and if you do, then don\u2019t follow his precepts. And you make him out a liar by saying, \u201cI don\u2019t believe that\u2019s true.\u201d Or you don\u2019t do what he said, which is making him out a liar, and you\u2019re saying, \u201cI don\u2019t believe that\u2019s true.\u201d Either way, you\u2019re sunk.<\/p>\n

So once he said, \u201cThis that I do you\u2019ll do and even greater,\u201d I said, \u201cTake him at his word and do that and even greater.\u201d And they said how? I said, \u201cWell, you receive not because you ask not.\u201d So you ask.<\/p>\n

Now if you ask knowing you\u2019re not going to get it, guess what\u2019s going to happen? You\u2019re not going to get it. It\u2019s just almost rest assured. And then how about the times you asked, thinking you were going to get it, and you still didn\u2019t get it? Life is like that. It\u2019s called karma. If we could know all of our cause and effect syndrome, right down to this second, the next thing we did we would not judge, because we\u2019d know it\u2019s futile to do so. See, most of the problems we have right now inside of us have stemmed from basically judging. It would be easy if we just went out and said, \u201cHey, you ugly person you,\u201d because now at least we\u2019ve put it out.<\/p>\n

What we do is we do it inside, and we start then to take this energy that is our spirit, and let\u2019s call it God\u2019s spirit, and hope we\u2019re part of all that, and we start to hold and contain it.\u00a0 If we can hold and contain the energy physically, then it can\u2019t go out, it must go someplace, because there\u2019s no such thing as just a vacuum here.<\/p>\n

You learn to go into the silence, inside of you. And boy, after you get into there a little while you hear humming, and you hear drums, and you hear voices, and you see things. If you close your eyes, you can really hallucinate an existence. Nevertheless, you just sit there for that period of time that you\u2019ve designated. And we call it, of course, spiritual exercise time, wherein you chant and then you go quiet, and you listen, and you watch. That builds energy, it just starts to percolate some beautiful energy fields inside of you.\u00a0 You’re never going to know unless you do it.\u00a0 And you do it by putting the seat of the pants on the seat of the chair.<\/p>\n

I don’t know if you know it, but a lot of times when we were young, and not just me but a lot of people, we’d be disciplined by — then it was called punishment — we were punished by our parents. And we were put in a room where it was quiet. And sometimes in a classroom they’d take and put a person and face them to the wall and put a dunce hat on their head. They were, you know, it looked like a real insult and everything, except for one thing. The energy fields that were released on that person were profound. A lot of those people turned out to be gigantic leaders in their field, and they remember being made the dunce in the classroom and sitting facing a corner.<\/p>\n

I’ll tell you something, though. Go sit in a corner and face the corner and just sit there with your eyes open and just look at the wall where there’s nothing, and pretty soon you start to find out that the stimulation, this ocular intrusion that you have, goes quiet. And all of a sudden in that corner you find peace and quiet. Sometimes they’ll take you and put you in a closet and close the door and say you can’t come out until…and you sit there until you go real quiet, and they come to get you and you’re sound asleep and you’ve had a peaceful rest, because you’ve learned, unconsciously, to go into it.<\/p>\n

Now we’re saying you’ve got to learn consciously to do what we know unconsciously, to help the planet, to help you, to help every being in existence, move up to another level. And we do that by bringing forward the energy out of silence.<\/p>\n

The more you sit and go inside, the more whatever that is that knows how to breathe us and sleep us and awaken us and digest food and to heal us, and to bring forward love, is going to be there more and more as a present, everyday, ongoing reality.<\/p>\n
