INTRODUCTION
Oracle of the Heart is an extraordinary adventure in Self-discovery. It offers clear and empowering insights into your self. I could say And the truth will set you free but what Oracle of the Heart reveals, transcends truth as we generally think of it. It presents both a deep feeling truth, and a sacred process for receiving and knowing this truth within our hearts. Oracle of the Heart is a personalized spiritual event, which lifts ones spirit and simply helps them to be the best that they can be. Take it to heart, use it regularly and it will defiantly enhance the quality of your life. How it works is both simple and magical. We begin by rolling two unusual dice, to select what we call a light key, from Oracle of the Heart. There are over a million possible light-keys but the one, that Oracle of the Heart selects, is always a perfect compliment to our current experience. These Light Keys actually match and begin to dissolve our recurring nonproductive creative patterns called karma, bad habits, obsessions and compulsions. These disruptive patterns limit our freedom to create our hearts desires and this is exactly what Oracle of the Heart liberates us to do. Life is constantly changing. Every seven days a new creative cycle begins. This is why we roll for a new light key just once a week. We also do this because seven days is how long it takes to realize the full creative potential of each key. In the twenty years, that my wife Barbara and I have worked with Oracle of the Heart our greatest challenge has always been simply describing it. Thats because Oracle of the Heart is unlike anything we have ever experienced before. I can tell you that it will change your life in wonderful ways faster and easier than you ever imagined possible. I can even guarantee that Oracle of the Heart will improve your relationships, your productivity, peace of mind and your basic enjoyment of life. Nothing I can say, however, will capture the true magic that Oracle of the Heart is. It is a pure experience, which is beyond description, as easy as taking a breath and as simple as saying four words. It is a wonderful gift, which I have given myself every week for years and the only thing that could possibly make it better for me is the opportunity to share it with you.

PART ONE

THE BASICS
Our Journey
Our journey to discover Oracle of the Heart began twenty years ago when my wife Barbara and I were in the midst of a personal crisis. We had spent years practicing eastern spiritual disciplines but in our moment of need, we turned to a prayer. It was The Lords Prayer, which we both learned as children. Our years of eastern spiritual training enabled us to see this prayer as a sequence of invocations corresponding with our eight, chakra energy centers. These eight centers play key rolls in eastern spiritual disciplines and by breathing into them, while saying the Lords Prayer, Barbara and I quickly realized wonderful healing results. This discovery was very exciting to us. We felt like a treasure, hidden by Jesus, within Lords Prayer was being revealed. Then, we saw what we thought was an enlightening game within the prayer. One evening, in a trance, I used 474 quarters and mixing bowl from our kitchen to create a game board for this new game. Next we learned that 474, is the ancient Hebrew number of Daath, which is the invisible seraph on the Tree of Life. It seemed like the pieces of puzzle were mysteriously coming together and we instinctively knew the game board was a key piece. Right away, we felt this game board speaking to us with symbols and patterns. Over the next few years, in our efforts to understand these symbolic messages, we traveled to some fascinating places. On a trip to Palenque Mexico, we discovered the Ancient Ones who founded the Mayan culture and in their Temple of the Sun, we experienced the Sun Cross Codex. That codex contained symbols very similar to the ones in our game board. It tells a story about Lord Pacal, the king of Palenque and his son Chan Balum. It says they travel through the stars to meet The God of The Central Sun, Hunabku. A mysterious relationship between this story, our game board, the Codex and the Lords Prayer gradually revealed the game as the spiritual healing tool, which we call Oracle of the Heart. Did you know the ancient Hebrews, the Mayans and the apostles of Jesus all used oracles? They did and they used them as we use Oracle of the Heart to illuminate the blessings that already are. If you will affirm the wise and simple words, which Oracle of the Heart presents, your heart will open to realize the blessings of each moment. This is how Oracle of the

Heart has helped thousands of people to improve themselves. For thirteen years, Barbara and I have, shared and refined Oracle of the Heart until it is as easy as taking a breath and as simple as saying four words. Embrace it and Oracle of the Heart will be a wise, trustworthy and faithful friend who will love, honor and bless you more than you could possibly imagine. Enjoy!

Shaping Motivation
One evening, a few years ago, I saw a fascinating interview with the Dali Lama. It began with a detailed description of a typical day in the life of this extraordinary man. He awakes every morning at 3 AM and spends his first six hours each day alone in his quarters practicing meditations, mental and spiritual exercises. The first question, which the interviewer asked the Dali Lama was, What do you hope to accomplish with these morning exercises? The Dali Lama simply answered Shaping Motivation. Shaping motivation is also something that Oracle of the Heart helps us to do. After that, I waited for the interviewer to ask what is shaping motivation? And why is it so important? But, he never did. I spent quite a bit of time myself, contemplating the importance of shaping motivation. I now I believe it is important because our motivations are the heartfelt thoughts and feelings, which define our human behavior. Motivation is important because we are creators and as we give or emanate (think & feel) so shall we receive (manifest). When Jesus said Repent (change how you think) because the kingdom of God is at hand and As you think, in your heart (feelings) you shall become he too was describing the importance of shaping motivation. Motivation moves and defines us in so many ways. It inspires our thoughts and our behavior. It defines how we respond to the conditions of our lives and our personalities. As it determines what we create, by shaping motivation, we may literally redefine the foundations of our world. Shaping motivation is at the heart of every spiritual teaching because it is how we honor ourselves by realizing our highest God-given creative potentials. And, it is by shaping motivation that Oracle of the Heart makes our lives better.

Our Human Condition

The word human is composed of two words Hu & Man. Hu is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning God or Spirit. The Hu part of us is our spiritual self, our soul. Every soul is a unique hu or expression of God. The word man refers to our animal species and our lower physical self. We humans are then unique expressions of God living within physical bodies.

Spiritually we possess the heavenly gift of free will but physically we are earthbound. Our souls hunger for freedom and love, which cannot satisfied by our earthly bodies. Jesus acknowledged this dilemma when he says to Be in the world but not of it. As spiritual souls, living within material, worldly bodies we often experience this dilemma. Our spirits may sore and see great visions but when we try to realize our lofty dreams, we find it is easier to see than to do. This is especially true when we do not realize who we are. The majority of our information comes through our limited animal senses so the messages we receive are one sided. The side we generally see is the perspective of our limited man self but our Hu self comes first. To realize who we are or what we are capable of we must place our Hu nature where it belongs, before the man. Freedom and love are our souls spiritual motivations. As we honor these, our physical limitations melt away and this is what shaping motivation with Oracle of the Heart does.

Fight or Flight?
When Jesus told us to Repent, he was just saying, If you will see your selves as spiritual beings rather than as physical ones then you may also see how the heavenly freedom which you desire is ever present. But, it is easier to see than to do. Our lives are complex because our minds are conflicted because everything in Gods creation has its opposite. We are male and female. Our universe is a blending of light and dark, and the most fundamental forces of yin and yang or good and evil seem to be in conflict with one another. Our world is divided into north and south, east and west, up and down, sweet and sour. We feel compelled to understand these opposing relationships. We weigh and measure everything, which keeps our minds very busy but does it make us happy? Moreover, thinking of ourselves as vulnerable physical beings activates our animal fight or flight mechanism and compels us to take sides. These are the primal motivations behind our human tragedies and comedies and yet our lives are neither fun nor funny until we can laugh at our selves. Jesus clearly described how our condition keeps us earth bound when he said To ascend into the heavens you must sacrifice the hardness (defensiveness) of your hearts. In the beginning, it was fig leaves where today we have nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. Ironically, it is our own defenses, which threaten our very existence. When we can see both the tragedy and humor of this condition then we may begin to reshape our motivation or as Jesus says, repent. Until then we must live with the
6

illusions that might makes right and the ends justify the means and the mountains of bullshit that these lies support.

Unity, Drama & Peace

The primary motivations of our physical and spiritual selves are very different. They both want love and freedom but they see these very differently. To our physical selves freedom is about survival, comfort and the law of the jungle. Physically we see sex as love but to our spiritual selves love is much more. Physically everything and everyone seems to be separate but spiritually we are all one. The unity of opposites is dramatic. A storm is created as cold and warm air unites. An electrical spark is produced by the unity of positive and negatively charged currents. New life begins with the unity of male and female and so on. Naturally, the coexistence of our two selves as one being makes ours a very dramatic world. Our eternal souls naturally feel limited by our physical bodies and our comfort loving animal selves are constantly being pushed beyond their comfort zones by our unconditional souls. This condition means that we are constantly dealing with internal conflicts, which we project into our world in the life forms of war and greed. It is imperative that we change but first we see that peace on earth begins with the unity of our internal selves. Over the years, Barbara and I have learned to see the Sun Cross Codex (page # ) as a detailed reflection of human consciousness. In it, the Mayan Ancient Ones have illustrated how internal peace is created as we sacrifice the hardness of our hearts, which is also, what Jesus taught. Looking at the two large figures in the codex, we see them holding out offerings to The Sun God or Creator (Hunabku). What do you think they are offering? After years of contemplating this, we believe they are offering up this hardness. We find this same sacrifice in the Lords Prayer (Thy will (Love) be done). Moreover, this same spiritual technology, of sacrificing the lower for the higher, is the ancient wisdom of Daath and the basis of Oracle of the Heart.

Games
When Jesus says to be in the world but not of it he is describing our human game. Then he gives us advice about how to play this game, like seek neither here nor there for the kingdom of God (loving unity) is within you and As you think, in your heart you shall become. He tells us not to look here or there because that is where we find the illusions of duality,

separation and conflict. He tells us to look within because that is where our souls reside in loving unity with God. He tells us As we think, in our hearts (feelings) we shall become to inform us of how we may change our current experience to evolve our faith, while manifesting loving unity in heaven here on earth. The Old Testament translation of sin is to miss the mark and again there is an emphasis on the game like nature of our human lives. God has created this game for His children but to play it we must stop taking our selves so seriously. To play this game we must sacrifice the hardness (defensiveness) of our hearts and to help us do this is true purpose of all prayers, meditations and spiritual exercises. To guide and train us to successfully play this game is the purpose of great souls like Jesus, Buddha and the Dali Lama. To win we must learn to see the heavenly truth of loving unity within the worldly illusion of duality, separation and conflict and this is also what Oracle of the Heart is helping us to do.

The Cross
There are many ways to understand the nature of our human game and one of these is The Cross. Like our world a cross is made of two apposing forces. We perceive a cross when we arent getting what. If we focus on the apparent conflict thats what we create and we loose. But, when we look to the center of the cross, to its point of unity then we win. This center point is where the opposites unite and are one. This point of unity is a doorway between the outer illusionary world where everything is sperate and the inner heavenly realms where the truth of unity is clear. To pass through this doorway, through the center of the cross, is the purpose of our prayers, meditations and spiritual exercises. It is also, what we may experience with Oracle of the Heart. In the crucifixion, we see how the point of the cross is behind the heart of Christ. We see can see this but to pass through it as Jesus did our minds must go beyond the body which is suffering in its separate awareness. At the end when Jesus says Father, father why have you forsaken me he is expressing what we all feel when we are feeling torn or crucified by the cross. Our minds, busily seeking here and there for good and evil, trying to maintain some illusion of control, are responsible for our suffering. As we learn that our minds are our tools and not our true selves then we can begin to use them in ways that will liberate us from illusion and suffering. Moreover, this is what Oracle of the Heart helps us to do. A mind that is motivated by fearful to survive is determined to control every situation. Well, this is impossible but the mind only sees what it wants
8

to see. The mind has two parts, which are opposites and without these, it could not function or exist. Our minds naturally seek problems because they are made to solve problems. Self-preservation motivates the mind to avoid peace and while cant stop it we can and do trick it with Oracle of the Heart.

The Sacred Dance

Many spiritual traditions, including early Christianity, have described a sacred dance. The purpose of this dance is to hypnotize our minds. In the sacred dance which Oracle of the Heart presents we move through the four outer points of the cross. The oracle contains 32 light-words organized into eight levels with four words on each level. And, now we will utilize the four light-words on the first level to demonstrate this sacred dance. These first four words are Oracle of the Hearts foundation. They are; Receiving, Giving, Wanting & Letting-go. It is easy to see that eceiving and Giving are opposites, and Wanting and Letting-go are also opposites and together they form a cross and the four positions of a sacred dance. As we affirm I am receiving & I am giving, I am wanting & I am letting-go we move the mind back and forth producing a state of mental neutrality. It is very unlike our linniar thinking minds to contradict itself so as it does this our subconscious minds asks what is he or she doing. This question creates an opening and through it spiritual energies begin to flow through the center of this cross. I cannot prove what I have just described to you but I can help you to prove it to yourself.

Tricks
So, lets try this little dance. First just say I am receiving & I am giving back and forth, over and over. The trick is to feel each word as completely as you possibly can. As you say I am receiving feel the sensation of receiving. Now as you say I am giving feel the sensation of giving. Now add I am wanting and I am letting-go. And as you move through this cross saying I am receiving & I am giving, I am wanting & I am letting-go, create visual images of yourself receiving, giving wanting and letting-go. Any visual will do as long as you can feel it. Feelings and imagery make our mental dance seem more real and the more real it feels the more involved our subconscious, feeling minds become. With this little exercise we are actually uniting our conscious thinking minds with our subconscious feeling ones. This activity has absolutely no meaning to either of our two selves because. The purpose of this activity is

purely spiritual so not only are we uniting our two inner selves we are uniting them spiritually. To understand this power of this we just remember that the first and most important commandment is to love God with our whole self. How we do this is by opening our hearts (subconscious) and minds (conscious) to him. Creating openings for God to fill us with his loving will, these are the only gifts we can give Him. This was the original purpose of sacrifices and this is exactly what we do every time we use Oracle of the Heart. The Sacred Breath God who is everywhere is most accessible to us in our breath. How to ride upon the breath between our outer physical awareness and the inner realms of Spirit is a key to spiritual success. Breathing is our only primal bodily function performed by our subconscious but that we can regulate with our conscious minds. This makes the breath a natural bridge between our outer and inner awareness. The words spirit and spiritual both come from the Greek word esparto, meaning to breathe. Our earthly lives begin and end with a breath. The rhythms of our breath are the pulse of life, which are part of every true prayer, mediation or spiritual exercise. The breath is also an important key to this experience called Oracle of the Heart. Now as you continue affirming these same four words focus on your breathing. As you breathe in say I am receiving and as you breathe out say I am giving. As you breathe in say I am wanting and as you breathe out say I am letting-go. Feel how breathing this way helps you to experience these words more and more deeply. Breathing is part of every true spiritual practice as it how the Great Spirit of Life, Our Creator, dances within us. The breath takes us deep and again thats the trick The freedom to move horizontally here & there is just the freedom to indulge the mind by moving from illusion to illusion. This horizontal experience leaves us feeling empty, trapped, confused, betrayed and alone. But, moving or dancing with these light words, upon the breath, through the center of a cross, opens our minds to the reality of our soul. As we do this we begin to realize that our souls ancient dreams of unconditional love are indeed very real. To experience our lives through our souls loving awareness, is the freedom to be in this world and in heaven at the same time. And this is what Oracle of the Heart can help you to experience. Take each of the light-keys that it gives you, into your breath and into your heart and I guarantee that it will change how you experience your life in wonderful, magical and mysterious ways.

PART TWO:

Awakening
Solomon's Request
Oracle of the Heart is a process of gently awakening from our limiting material realities into an unlimited spiritual one. Each light-key releases energies long held within our consciousness to create openings which Spirit then fills. Spirit then moves our awareness beyond our material boundaries and towards God consciousness. The basis of this wonderful experience is faith but there are many kinds of faith. There are also many ways to explain or describe the faith which will enable you to get the most from this experience. One of our favorite ways of describing this special faith is in the Old Testament story of Solomon's request. In Givon, the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night. And God said, ask what shall I grant you. And Solomon said, You have shown great faithful love to your servant David, my father, because he walked before You in Faithfulness and in integrity of heart. And You have kept for him this great faithful love, by giving him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day. And now, O Lord, my God, You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, yet I am but a ladGive, then, Your servant a listening heart to judge Your people, to distinguish between good and evil; for who can judge this vast people of yours? (1 Kings 3:5-9) King Solomon could have asked God for anything and received it but he asked for "a listening heart" and this is what we receive from Oracle of the Heart. "A listening Heart" is indeed a great treasure but to receive it like Solomon we must ask God for it. To do this we must first understand and appreciate it's true value and this is something that working with Oracle of the Heart helps us to do. The bible also offers us a glimpse into the value of "a listening heart" in the verses that follow: And God was pleased that Solomon had asked for this. And God said to him, Because you have asked for this thing, and did not ask for long life, nor have you asked for riches, nor have you asked for the life of your enemies, but have asked for discernment to listen in judgment, behold, I have done as you have spoken. I have given you a heart that is wise and understanding; so that there has never been anyone like you before, nor shall anyone like you arise again. And I will also give you that which you have not asked for, both riches and glory all your life, the like of which no king has ever had (1 Kings 3:10-13).

11

By asking for a listening heart Solomon opened the way to receive the greatest wealth, power and glory that a king has ever known. Why do you think that is? I believe it is because "a listening heart" is a heart that is open to receive. In (Ps. 109: 22) God says, "My heart is empty within me". It is as we empty our hearts that we too become creators. As we open ourselves to listen we open to receive and this is exactly what Oracle of the Heart helps us to do. And God gave Solomon wisdom and great understanding, and a heart as broad as the sand upon the seashore. (1 Kings 4:29) Since 1982 we have gradually learned that Oracle of the Hearts greatest gifts come in the form of unique spiritual exercises or light meditations that are custom made to fit our personal needs. Each exercise or mediation is specifically designed to help us navigate through our souls current position in time and space. How is this accomplished? The best explanation we've found is that Oracle of the Heart opens our "listening hearts". This heart, which exists beyond the mind enables us to hear, to see and to know the perfection of our lives even when we not understand.

Spider
Amongst the many important messages and instructions that weve received from our Daath game board a very important one has come from the spider. To the Ute, Navaho, Hopi and the Zuni, Spider is the creator who weaves the patterns of life. Her antennas express the duality of our minds and her eight legs, four on either side, portray the eight chakras and the actual physical design of Oracle of the Heart. Spider is also a great listener, and listening is how we open to receive the treasures, which Oracle of the Heart presents. Our human thoughts are often described as webs and we're notorious for "getting tangled up in our thought-webs". Spider creates her web to attract and to receive what she needs and this is also the best use of our own thoughts. With each light key that Oracle of the Heart presents we weave a powerful creative thought-web. Then, like Spider, we must wait and listen to receive. First we receive our simplest and smallest blessings like the blessing of life present in this breath right now. And until we can receive these small blessings how can we ever hope to receive greater ones? As you work with the light-keys that Oracle of the Heart presents pay attention; listen to and feel each word. Expect Spirit to be present in every breath and be aware of the thought-web you are creating. Expect positive results and release the words of each key as Spider releases her silky threads, then wait and listen between the words. Imagine a web extending
12

beyond your awareness to receive blessings beyond your imagination. As you affirm each key, listen, wait and remember our goal is not to attract Gods Love but only to receive it by simply opening our hearts and minds.

The Flame
The ancient Mayas saw the sun as a paradise where God resides and our Daath design is also in the form of a sun. The bible tells us that our highest earthly transformation is a "Baptism of the Holy Spirit with fire and the "Holy Spirit" is described as "tongs of fire". One of Gods names is "The Father of Lights" who appears to Moses as a "Burning Bush" and His or Her heavens are adorned with brilliant burning stars. Like the Mayas God of the Central Sun our bible describes God as "The All Consuming Flame" and we Her/His children, as "The lights of this world". Science tell us that the foundation of creation are interwoven waves of light and the original words of Our Creator were "Let there be light. Now, if you will observe how a candle flame freely and effortlessly releases its light into the world and imagine your own spirit as such a flame then you may begin to experience Oracle of the Hearts 32 light words as expressions of your own radiant spirit. The Lords Prayer says Paradise will come as Gods will (let there be light) is done. Our highest human purpose is simply to shine brightly and this is exactly what Oracle of the Heart will help you to do. Beginning with the first word, Receiving, reflect on how each of the oracles words is an expression of light. Observe how the flame effortlessly, receives, gives, wants and lets go. The section called The Light-Word Glossary was created specifically to help you with this.

Light-Keys
The instructions to Oracle of the heart will help you to select from 1,042,756 possible "light-keys". These light-keys are created as you select four light words from the oracle (see instructions). Each light-key represents the energy signature with which you will be manifesting your reality over the next seven days (weekly creative cycle). While each key contains a great deal of information about why we are manifesting in this way, what we are interested are the windows of opportunity which these keys illuminate. Do you know how an automobile mechanic removes that black grease from his hands? He uses another kind of grease. Like neutralizes like, which is part of the natural healing process. Many herbal cures, acupuncture and homeopathic remedies work on this principal, which is why we have often described these light keys as homeopathy for the soul.

13

Lets say your four words for this week are joyful, liberating, happy & creating then you would say (I am Joyful, I am liberating, I am happy, I am creating). And as you say each word breathe it into your heart. Feel each word completely. Experience each word as a radiant expression of your own spirit and these keys will unlock reservoirs of pure energy within you. Each key lasts for creative cycle (seven days) and each enables us to assimilate the energies that are present in our lives during that week. If you share this experience with others, as we do, you will see how these keys are very different for each person. Each of us has a very specific needs and themes that our souls are working with. As up work with these keys remember that they are coming to you directly from Spirit. What you are receiving is both advice and a tool for moving your spiritual awareness to a higher level. Part of this process is the release of old stagnant or blocked energies. So if you seem to be reliving some old unpleasant event just know that you are letting-go of a burden that youve been caring around.

Synchronicity
Oracle of the Heart presents each light-key through an ancient method of "throwing lots". A modern word for this process is synchronicity, which is the belief that there is a perfect purpose and order to everything. And, more we trust in this perfection the more clearly we may see it. In the bible "lots" were often thrown to assist in the making of difficult decisions. By casting lots it was decided whether Joseph or Matthias should be Judas Iscariots successor in the apostleship (Acts: 1; 15-26). In Proverbs 1 6:33 it says "The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole decision is of the Lord". And an oracular device, call the Urim & Thummim, was worn beneath the "Breastplate of Arron", and used by the Melchizedec Priesthood. Not much is known about this ancient oracle or the priesthood that used it but experts believe it was a special pair of dice used for consulting with God (Ex 28: 30, Lv 8: 8, Dt, 33: 8, Ezr 2: 63 Nm 27: 21). Urim & Thummim is believed to mean Lights and integrity and the lights and integrity of our spirits is what Oracle of the Heart illuminates. And it is also our experience and belief that Oracle of the Heart is a method of consulting with God. We see the light-keys which it offers as openings into the golden light of Spirit.

Healing
When I did poorly in school and was especially weak in English. I was terrible reader and got Ds and Fs on most of my spelling tests and on

14

my written assignments. I can still remember teachers criticizing me in front of the class and the other children laughing when I read out-loud in the reading circle. At home, my parents punished me for these bad grades. Naturally I associated reading, writing and speaking in front of groups with pain, humiliation and failure and once I was out of school I did everything I could to avoid these experiences. It wasnt a conscious choice on my part but after graduation I was drawn to construction work and other kinds of work that didnt require reading, writing or speaking. Our minds develop our defenses by labeling experiences as good or bad. Then they tell us to attach to the good ones and to resist the bad. It makes sense, but this Knowledge of Good and Evil is what caused Adam and Eve to loose their place in paradise. Id obviously long forgotten those bad experiences in school when I started writing books and speaking to people about this work but it all came back. Our minds are like computers and as soon as I started trying to write I started feeling insecure and vulnerable, like I was doing something wrong and was going to be punished. I knew my fears were irrational but writing and speaking were still very difficult for me. I would have quit but it seemed to be the best ways to achieve my goals. I struggled with my inner mental program for years. I slowly got better at writing and speaking but it was still a very painful experience for me. Then we saw how Oracle of the Heart presents these light-keys. As soon as I began working with these light-keys I could feel this life-long condition changing. At first, it was just less painful. Then I actually started to enjoy the writing and naturally the writing itself also improved. What I have described to you here is one way that Oracle of the Heart has helped me to heal myself. There are many other examples I could have used but this one seemed especially appropriate. I now understand that traumas and experiences that we perceive as negative create blocks or tears in the fabric of our consciousness. Our thoughts and feelings are unable to flow through these tears and this limits our over all life experience in many ways. Working with Oracle of the Hearts light-keys mends these tears returning our minds to their natural unbroken or undefended state. Let me give you an example of how Oracle of the Heart restores our multifaceted minds to their natural unified states. Remember there are over one million possible light-keys or light-crosses. Looking in my oracle journal I found this one, I am receiving, I am speaking, I am accomplishing & I am joyful. Now, based on the little story I have just shared I believe you can see how this works. Previously receiving, speaking (includes writing), accomplishing and joy simply didnt come together in me. Because of my early experiences my minds defensive program separated these experiences.
15

As a result, I was unable to receive, accomplish or to experience any joy from writing or speaking and these were necessary for achieving my most important goals. After years of avoiding and struggling light-keys, like the one Ive just shared, are enabling me to mend and heal these tears. Today writing is one of my most rewarding experiences. As you work with these light-keys you can observe as Oracle of the Heart helps you to heal and mend the tears within your own heart and mind. You will see how energies that have been separate most of your life come together and how this opens you to have deeply satisfying experiences that you never dreamed were possible. We all have our own unique wounds, which Oracle of the Heart finds and heals in a very precise, fast, gentle and efficient manner. Oracle of the Heart literally creates new inner pathways, new inner lines of communication between our hearts and minds and even between Our Creator and these ourselves.

The Last Treason

One of my favorite quotes is "The very last treason is to do the right thing for the wrong reason" by Walt Whitman. These defensive blocks which our minds create often cause us to betray our true purpose. I know that Oracle of the Heart is gift from God. I also know that I am to share it with others and I also know that to do this effectively I must be able to write and to speak clearly. Hidden within those early wounds were many hidden agendas and one of these was the desire to prove to them that I could succeed. That was the wrong reason and I could not really succeed in my life until I found the right reason and this is something that Oracle of the Heart has helped me to do. Another favorite quote of mine is "To Thyn own self be true" by William Shakespeare. I guess it was betraying myself with the wrong reasons for so long that has make these quotes so meaningful to me. So, what is "the right thing and the right reason"? Well, were taking about shaping motivation again and this reminds me of still another favorite quote: "What makes the angels, angels is not that they are holier than men or devils but that they do not expect holiness from one another but from God alone" by William Blake. Now, I hear these three wise men saying, "the right thing is doing our best and allowing everyone else to do their best while we are opening to receive God's help, love and perfection". Oracle of the Heart wont tell you what's right or best but it will do something even better. Without explaining why it will simply support you in being the best person you can be in this moment right now. It will enable you to release your limiting, defensive beliefs and judgments because they
16

are all that is blocking your souls inner knowing of what is right and best. As the tears within your consciousness are healed you will be free to honor your own heart just as you have always wanted to. As Oracle of the Heart enables you to reach beyond your limits and into Spirit remember its just about letting-go. As we let-go of everything that is not right or true for us all that is left is who we really are. Who are we? We are Gods children and this is what Oracle of the Heart enables each of us to realize in our own unique and very special way.

Some Simple Thoughts Before You Begin

1. Oracles are mirrors so what your seeing is simply who you are. 2. Using Oracle of the Heart is like having a conversation with God and we find that keeping this in mind is very helpful. 3. Oracle of the Heat speaks to us as Gods children as creators so be prepared to accept creative responsibility for your experiences. 4. Oracle of the Heart presents us with opportunities to receive the perfection our lives unfolding right now. 5. As creators in training we are always being taught how to use our free will to manifest something better. 6. To know the higher spiritual purpose of our unique lives, which Oracle of the Heart illuminates, we must first assume that God is loving us perfectly at all times. 7. As Our Father/Mother/God is ever present, all-powerful and all loving The Blessings Already Are. And all we must do is open to receive them.

THE INSTRUCTIONS

Oracle of the Heart

(OH) comes from an ancient spiritual system consisting of eight levels, with four light-words on each level. Each time we use Oracle of the Heart we select four words to form a Light-Key. * 1st STEP: SELECTING A LIGHT-KEY; Begin by numbering one through four on a blank piece of paper. Then, roll your eight-sided die to select one of OH's eight levels. Next, roll your four-sided die to select a word from that level and write the word next to the number one on your paper. Now roll both dice three more times to select three more words. NOTE: If you get the same word two or more than once, it means that word is very important to you at this time. * 2nd STEP: REFLECTIONS: What does each word mean to you? How are these words affecting you right now? The 1st word is the THEME. The 2nd word is the CHALLENGE. The 3rd is the OPPORTUNITY. The 4th is a BOTTOM LINE. The "Light-Word Glossary" in the next section may help you to reflect on these words. * 3rd STEP: AFFIRMATIONS: Now add, "I am" to each word. For example, if your four words were 1. Receiving, 2. Wanting, 3. Wanting & 4. Letting-go; then you would affirm, I am receiving, I am wanting, I am wanting & I am letting-go. Now your light-key is complete. * 4th STEP: THE FLAME: You may experience each affirmation as a radiant expression of your spirit by imagining that you are a flame. As you say each word feel how it expresses your light. NOTE: The "Light-Word Glossary" in the next section may be helpful. * 5th STEP: RHYTHMIC BREATH: Now harmonize your breathing with these four affirmations (see Part 1 of this book). * 6th STEP: LISTENING: As you breathe and listen with your heart, experience these words as fully and as deeply as you can. * 7th STEP: SURFING LOVE: Each light-key is an opportunity to release our worldly concerns until we are uplifted by the pure forces it contains. Relax into each word and feel how it lifts you. Feel the peaceful, loving center of your spiritual heart opening. We call this delightful uplifting experience Surfing Love.

PART FIVE

SUGGESTIONS
To help you get the most from Oracle of the Heart we offer these suggestions: 1. Think of OH as a sacred ceremony and you'll have a sacred experience. 2. We find that the clearer our intentions are concerning what we want when we use Oracle of the Heart the more we may receive from it. 3. We find that the more committed we are to our dreams and to achieving our goals the better the Oracle works. 4. We find that the more devoted we are to loving the better OH works. 5. If you're ever feeling stuck or like you're not moving as quickly as you would like we suggest spending some time with the seven exercises in Part IV. 6. A primary objective which will enables us to benefit from OH is staying focused. The more fully we focus our thoughts and feelings on each affirmation the more energy and better results they will generate. 7. OH is a method for training our hearts and minds so when they wander you can gently guide them back. Be persistent, be patient, be gentle. 8. We find the best times to work with OH and the light-keys it provides are (1.) when we first get up in the morning, (2.) before dinner in the evening, (3.) or at bedtime {in our opinion morning is best}. 9. We find that working with the light-keys while doing physical exercises like walking, jogging and swimming can be productive. You may also use them while waiting in line or in a waiting room but none of these times should replace your sacred, quiet time alone with the Oracle. 10. Since these light-keys promote altered states of consciousness we do not recommend using them while driving or using machinery or anytime when safety is an issue or where your full attention is needed. 11. Oracle of the Heart groups are uplifting, fun and very enlightening. If you choose to share Oracle of the Heart in this way you should first be experienced with it. Since we have quite a bit of experience with OH groups there's a lot that we may contribute to the success of your groups. For assistance with groups please contact us at________. 12. Expressing each light-key, as a sacred conversation with God is the best way we know of claiming our divine birthright as unlimited creators.
