Such a nice pope. He talks about love and non-judgment&#8211;and John the Beloved. We\u2019ve had experiences with large religious crowds at Lourdes and Fatima on recent trips, but this one is so nonchalant, friendly and fun. No pressure, no psychic hooks or \u201cgive me, give me.\u201d No jostling or competing for space or drama or superstition. Just a cheery, festive day in the sun, like people getting together to see Santa Claus in the summertime. Good vibes, clean energy. An inkling of what\u2019s to come as we create heaven on earth and the world\u2019s religions embrace the law of love and the immanence of spirit in each person. John does a powerful blessing with our group and it feels in tune with the energy that\u2019s there in St. Peter\u2019s square.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to create pressure in Italy. It takes too much effort, and no one is buying it. Rome is the most laid-back big city I\u2019ve seen. Los Angelenos think they\u2019re laid-back, but they\u2019re uptight by comparison, more afraid of life and more competitive\u2014which means afraid of losing. Romans have won and lost so many times that they don\u2019t let it interfere with a good meal or a good time. As we leave Rome for the countryside I experience for the first time feeling more relaxed in a big city than when I leave for the country.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon John takes us on an unplanned walking tour of the area around the Pantheon, we visit the hotel where some of us stayed with J-R in 2010 (when J-R didn\u2019t come out for five days, and we explored the city while he explored the higher realms), and we decide to eat lunch in the hotel&#8217;s rooftop restaurant. J-R\u2019s energy comes so present whenever we talk about him. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a day of spontaneity and it feels like a letting-go of all the dust that\u2019s gotten on our shoes (metaphorically) in the spiritual work we\u2019ve been doing on the first portion of the trip&#8211;a preparation for the J-R legacy tour where I get the impression that we\u2019re moving into the J-R mode of the bliss of non-duality, where we could stay inside and travel out of the body for five days, or tour around for five days, and it would all be the same.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; \u201cMy job is to awaken the soul into the soul realm, so you can have heaven while you\u2019re on earth.\u201d John-Roger, DSS. &nbsp; Rome, Italy | Day 16 | September 30 Today we return to the Vatican for the Angelus Blessing with the Pope.
