What Is Love?

By Mother Mary (channeled by Joni E. Jenkins)
Copyright June 2008
 

Love is acceptance of all that is, and all there is is love, pure and simple. There really is nothing else to say, but that would not make for much of an article. So let me expand on this answer which is already so complete.

Let us speak about that which love is not. There is not a special kind of love that is romantic or sexual. There is not a special kind of love between a mother and her child. A father's love is not different than a mother's love or a lover's love. There is no such thing as loving someone but not being in love with them. Love is not afraid to say I love you, because to say I love you is to speak one's highest truth, always. Love cannot contradict itself, and there is no polarity to love. You cannot extend love to someone unless you are love, just as you cannot extend a million dollars to someone unless you have a million dollars to give.

You love because you are love, and it feels good to be what you are. Anything that contradicts this simple truth creates pain and suffering. You are love, thus you are acceptance of all that is, and all that is is love. By accepting all that is, you are accepting yourself, which is love. Resistance to love is ultimately painful becasue you are resisting yourself and all that is. Take the path of least resistance.

When you judge rather than accept, you are not speaking your truth, becasue the truth is that you are love and love accepts all that is. You are one with all that is, and all that is is love. If you believe that it is possible for you or anyone else to be anything but love you are denying yourself of inner peace, joy, and love. Love is peaceful because it accepts all that is as being itself, and love accepts itself. There is nothing but love.

Everything is indeed love; there are no exceptions. Love never destroys, condemns, fears, or finds fault. Everything real is love and love cannot be destroyed. Energy cannot be destroyed. Love is energy and love is everything, therefore nothing real can ever be destroyed. Love knows that only love exists and everything else is an illusion. All you are is love. Love is all there is.

Many of you have received an e-mail or two from me with this quote at the bottom as part of my e-mail signature. This quote has been the driving force in my life ever since I first discovered it. Like many of you reading this, my present incarnation has been filled with so much pain and suffering that it has inspired me to take the spiritual path to enlightenment, in an all out effort to find "permanent relief" in union with God so that I do not have to come back and experience more of this wheel of reincarnation.

It is with much relief that I can finally say that I am in heaven because I love hell. And if I had to come back and reincarnate after this lifetime has ended, I would not mind. And looking back in retrospect I realize now that my own God-Self and my spirit guides had very purposefully and methodically created hell, in and all around me, in such a way that I would have no other choice but to learn to love hell. I am so grateful for what hell has taught me that how could I NOT LOVE HELL!?!

It is easy to feel love, gratitude, peace, and joy when things are going your way. In our unconscious society, filled with illusions, we teach and encourage each other to create the life you have always dreamed of in order to find happiness. Books and videos on manifestation techniques are all the rage these days. Frustrated, unfulfilled, unhappy people are buying them like hot cakes, hoping that now they finally have the secret key that unlocks the door to love and happiness. Eventually these same people come back to me and say that there is more to this than what is in these books and videos. They do not take into account a "higher plan" that has authority over the ego's shopping list--(perfect mate, perfect job, perfect house, lots of money, and so on). When you finally surreneder to God you realize that God wants you to be happy and in love "no matter what." That is the greatest gift of all--permanent bliss.

We have placed value on becoming a human doing rather than a human being. We are promising human beings that if they just DO one more thing, jump through one more hoop, they will finally find what they have been looking for. This is an illusion. If you are not happy in hell, if you do not love hell just as much as you love heaven, there is nothing on the physical plane you can "do" or "create" that will take your pain and suffering away and create permanent peace, joy, and love. Eventually God cuts to the chase and takes everything away from you so that you can learn to love hell. God does this out of pure love for you because God wants nothing but perfect inner peace and joy for you. Every "bad" thing that happenes to you is not because you are a "bad" person or because you attract "evil." Bad things happen to good people because God loves you sooooooo much that God wants you to learn to love hell so that you you can finally be in heaven.

A truly "successful" human being is happy no matter what the circumstances are going on in or around them. The real reason why people on a devoted spiritual path have a reputation for living in poverty is not because they are not capable of manifesting a physically abundant life or don't want to on some level. It is because God is teaching God how to unconditionally love everything, including hell, so that when you minister to people who are in hell, your own light of pure, unconditional love and absolute accpetance of all that is, can pierce the veil of illusions with the precision of a laser beam. An enlightened master has mastered the art of bringing light into the darkest places of their own heart and mind, by learning ultimately to love hell. When hell itself no longer causes pain and suffering, the very essence of hell itself no longer exists. The very idea that hell can exist at all has been an illusion all along.

Hi, my name is Jesse Denson and my mom is Joni Jenkins. I am going to tell you about the miracle healings my mom has done on our cats. My mom has done three miracle healings; one on our Siamese cat, Casey, and two on our black cat, Leo. All three times the vet said that the cats needed surgery to heal, but we could not get the surgery for any of them because it was too much money. After we heard the news from the vet my mom said that the surgeries couldn't happen, so my mom tried performing a miracle healing and all three times and it worked!

First I would like to start with the most recent miracle healing on our black cat, Leo's, leg. We were at home one Friday night and I was teaching Leo tricks. While I was doing a trick with Leo he got scared and jumped out of my arms and broke his leg. We noticed that Leo was limping and would not interact with us. He would not eat or use his litter box either.

The next day we took Leo to the vet. The vet took an x-ray of his leg and said it was broken in way that could not be healed with a cast; he needed surgery to put pins in his leg. We could not afford the surgery, and we were also planning to leave town in a few days for a two week trip and would not be able to take care of him after his surgery. The day we got home from the vet my mom said that she had performed two other miracle healings- one on Leo and one on our other cat Casey before, so she thought that she could heal Leo's broken leg.

My mom said that with the other miracle healings, the cats came to her for the healing, so she waited for Leo to come to her. That day, on Saturday, when Leo did not come to my mom, she got him out from under the bed where he was hiding. He ran away and did not want the healing at that time. The next day, on Sunday, my mom was talking on the phone with a friend and Leo came out of hiding, walked up to my mom, and starred at her like he wanted the healing right at that second. Once my mom saw him she knew it was time to do the healing, so she immediately hung up the phone and sat down with Leo and did the miracle healing. Leo sat with my mom and did not run away until the healing was finished. After 15 minutes Mother Mary told my mom that the healing was successful and then Leo jumped off her lap and went away. Mother Mary told my mom to let Leo sleep as long as possible.

The next day, on Monday, Leo was interacting with our other cat for the very first time since he first broke his leg on Friday. He also started eating, drinking, and using the litter box for the first time. He wanted to go outside and play. My mom decided to let him outside and Leo started playing and chasing our other cat, Lola. He was limping a little bit, but Mother Mary and my mom's best friend Kayte said he might limp for awhile because he was so traumatized that he still thinks he needs to protect his leg. After two weeks Leo stopped limping and he was back to his normal self.

That healing was not the only healing my mom did on Leo. We got Leo from the Humane Society when he was a kitten. A few months after we got him he started acting very sick. His breath was stinking very badly, he had ulcers on his tongue, thick drool was hanging from his mouth, he was walking into things like the furniture and the walls. My mom said she thought he had brain damage. He also stopped eating, lost a lot of weight even though he was a growing kitten, and he would not play with our other cats like he normally did. He would not interact with us or the other cats or play with his cat toys. Mother Mary told my mom that it was very serious and Leo would die. My mom took Leo to the vet and the vet said that it was very serious. He thought Leo had a liver birth defect that was causing him to not get rid of the toxins in his body. The toxins were going to his brain and causing him brain damage. The other possibility was that he had a virus that could not be healed and would kill him. My mom told me that the vet said if he had the virus he would have to be quarantined and put to sleep right away. If he had a liver birth defect it would cost thousands of dollars to do surgery, and the surgery might not even help him. My mom came home from the vet and told me that we were going to have to put Leo to sleep within a week or two.

The next day my mom's friend, Dave Moyle, e-mailed her and said he thought she was suppose to do a miracle healing on Leo. So later that day my mom tried to do a healing on Leo but he fought and resisted her and ran away. My mom asked Mother Mary why Leo ran away. Mother Mary told my mom that she was trying to do the healing instead of letting God do the healing, and letting God use her body, and Leo knew it and ran away. So then my mom focused on getting out of the way and letting God into her body. After she did that, my mom felt a change in her body and mind, and then at that exact moment Leo came to her, jumped up into her lap, curled up and went to sleep. After the healing my mom came to my room and said that the healing was done. Immediately afterwards I ran out to Leo, smelled his breath, and it was much better, like a normal cat. Within a few hours he was back to his old self, playing with the other cats, playing with his toys, eating, and he seemed more intelligent. He has been healthy, strong, and playful ever since then, except when I broke his leg...But my mom fixed that!

Now I will tell you about the first miracle healing that my mom ever did. I am going to be honest with you...I was pretty young when it happened, but I will tell the story to the best of my recollection. We had a Siamese cat named Casey. Casey got an eye infection and my mom went out of town, not realizing how bad it was. When my mom got home from her trip, Casey's usual big, bright, light blue eye looked very dark gray and cloudy. My mom and I took Casey to the vet. After examining Casey, the vet told us that Casey's eye would be forever blind and would have to be removed. The vet said Casey's eye had no chance of recovering. After we got home from the vet my mom said it would be wrong to take out Casey's eye. I don't remember this, but my mom told me that she said that this was because Siamese cats are suppose to have big, beautiful, bright blue eyes. My mom refused to accept the vet's diagnosis.

My mom said that over the next few weeks she channeled energy to Casey's eye everyday, and told Casey over and over that her eye was healed. After a few weeks Casey's eye was back to its normal light blue color, and she was not blind anymore. My mom proved the vet wrong and Casey's eye was healed. My mom told me that it is easier to do a miracle healing on an animal because you do not have to convince them that a miracle is possible, unlike humans who lack faith and have doubts. These three stories are just examples of what God can do though you if you have faith. That is the story of the three miracle healings that have occurred in my life...so far!

Hello parents of Indigo Children. I have a bit of information to pass on to help you with your struggle to raise happy, healthy Indigo Children.....

We are the last generation of the 5th root race. Our soul color is violet. Since about 1975 the first generation of the 6th root race has been coming in. Since the year 2000, 100% of the children being born are of the 6th root race. Their soul color is indigo. These are the "new and improved" spiritually evolved humans. Every Indigo Child has a " creative genius" within them waiting to be discovered and expressed. They have something new, something advanced, to bring to the world to evolve humanity, be it in the field of art, science, technology, philosophy, religion, and so on.

These children are highly misunderstood, don't fit into the conventions of the 5th root race society very well, and get diagnosed with all kinds of behavioral and psychological disorders--all because they do not fit in. For example, ADD and ADHD did not even exist until the 6th root race children started school, and were so bored, so misunderstood, and felt so invalidated, that they acted out or just simply could not cope with the conventional school system.

We need to understand these children. We need to bridge the way for their success. We need to create a school system and a workplace that the 6th root race can fit into, a place where they can express their individuality, and bring forth their talents and gifts. These kids are not juvenile delinquents, they are simply not getting their needs met by the 5th root race. They are very frustrated and confused and lost. Let's pull together and help the 6th root race become happy, healthy, well-adjusted, productive participants in society.

One of the best resources availble today for information regarding the 6th root race Indigo Children is the Children Of The New Earth Magazine. You can subscribe to this quarterly magazine by visiting www.childrenofthenewearth.com. Get a subscription for yourself, for your child's teacher, for a friend or family member raising Indigo Children. Let's stop letting these Indigo Children suffer in silence while we sit by and helplessly watch as they fall through the cracks of the 5th root race society.

In September of 1998 I attended a weekend seminar with the Ishaya monks, an ancient order of monks originating from the Himalayas, to learn their ancient ascension (meditation) techniques. During the seminar we were told by the monks that these ascension techniques give you a deeper rest than sleep, heal the body of accumulated stress in the nervous system, still the mind, and expand one's consciousness. This all sounded good to me, but I always wondered how you could actually PROVE that these claims were all true. Nevertheless I had faith, and I've been practicing the techniques everyday, usually three times a day, and I love it!

Now here's where we get to the really interesting part of my story.....I did a sleep study at Good Samaritan Hospital in October 2003. I have had pretty severe insomnia all entire life, and couldn't take being so severely sleep deprived all the time anymore. My doctors felt I actually had many of the classic symptoms of narcolepsy, which is why I couldn't even meditate or "ascend" during the day without falling asleep. So I was scheduled to do a sleep study during the night, and a nap study the following day, to test for narcolepsy.

During my nighttime study I had to be medicated after two hours because I couldn't fall asleep. You can't do a sleep study if you're not asleep! Then I woke up several times during the night. The study showed I got less than six hours of total sleep for the night, which may account for why I am so tired during the day, and fall asleep so easily when I meditate, thus possibly ruling out narcolepsy.

Now for the nap study I had to take five naps during the day, and I was given only 15 minutes to fall asleep each time. A person with narcolepsy will easily fall asleep five times in about five minutes. In preparation to sleep, I began "ascending," or using the Ishayas ascension techniques, to relax myself. While I was ascending I felt relaxed yet fully conscious. I reported to the technician that I only fell asleep one time for just a few minutes, out of the five naps. However, a couple weeks later when I went to see the sleep specialist regarding the results of my sleep study, he reported that the brain wave patterns showed that I fell asleep five times out of five, which he felt was very unusual, particularly since I had reported only falling asleep once. He felt that I did not have narcolepsy, but that I was just very tired from waking up so often during the night. He hypothesized that stress was causing my brain to produce alpha waves during the night, thus awakening me several times. He wanted to give me medication to suppress the alpha waves, thus enabling me to sleep through the night. I took the prescription and went home feeling very conflicted about, one, having to take medication (something I DO NOT like to do), and two, not having an explanation for why my brain waves patterns showed I was asleep, when I KNEW I was awake.

I went for a walk and channeled Mother Mary and asked her for guidance. She said that if I wanted to take medication to sleep, I would "stay asleep," meaning that the medication would energetically interfere with my spiritual growth and healing process. I understood what she meant because I have not been able to take any medication in several years without it doing more harm to my body than good, and my spiritual mentor has forbidden me to use medication of any kind. I started to cry. I JUST WANTED TO FEEL RESTED! But I would also NEVER do anything that would interfere with my spiritual growth and healing process. I honestly felt it was God's will for me NOT to take the medicine, but how could it be God's will for me to be useless in the physical world from severe sleep deprivation? I just didn't understand what God was asking me to do. Then suddenly, for some reason, I felt inspired to call the Ishaya monks and ask them what they would do in this situation.

When I returned home from my walk I called and spoke with Sindhuma Ishaya. She explained to me that the reason why the brain wave patterns showed that I was asleep during all five nap tests was because I was in fact ascending, and was indeed fully conscious. She explained that doctors do not yet recognize that it is possible to be resting the mind and body, as deep as if you are asleep, while fully awake and alert. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PRACTICE THE ISHAYAS ASCENSION TECHNIQUES!!! Secondly, Sindhuma told me that many of the Ishaya monks ascend during the night IN PLACE OF SLEEPING, and are fully rested when they get up in the morning. She suggested that rather than take the medication, I could ascend every time I awoke during the night, and not even try to go back to sleep. She said to just try it out and if I didn't feel it was working, I could then begin experimenting with the medicine.

That night I awoke several times and ascended through much of the night. The next day when I laid down on the couch to meditate and ascend, I DID NOT fall asleep for the first time in three years! To me that was validation that ascending through the night did indeed give me a deeper rest than sleeping. Then the next night I ascended for even longer periods of time, in place of sleeping. Again, the next day I DID NOT fall asleep during the day while meditating and ascending. Now I don't have any anxieties about waking up several times a night because I realize that as long as I'm ascending, I will be well rested the next day. Also, I can heal and grow spiritually without having to worry about some medication poisoning my body and mind. And after five years I got the scientific proof I needed to realize how truly powerful the Ishayas ascension techniques are!

I have copied and pasted an exceprt from the Ishayas website to help you better understand. For more details visit their website at www.ishaya.org.

In the Ishayas' Ascension, one touches the Infinite. All boundaries dissolve in the presence of one's True Nature; as Reality is directly experienced, all that is not true simply vanishes.

Joy and effectiveness in all areas of life is achieved effortlessly, when we are flowing and evolving with the upward currents of creation. The techniques taught by the Ishayas at the First Sphere Weekend, are wrapped around the upward spiraling emotions of Appreciation, Gratitude, Love and Compassion. Not only are these emotions powerful, they are natural (Ascension is always natural). It is the mind's natural tendency to move towards greater peace, happiness and clarity; it is the body's natural tendency to heal and reclaim its natural state of harmony and vitality.

Belief is not necessary in order to Ascend. If we wish to experience more of life - more peace, more effectiveness, more harmony, more joy, more love, more stillness - we need only follow our hearts; we need only choose to experience more. Yet belief is not required in order to Ascend. All beliefs are of the mind. By touching the source of mind - the Ascendant - all limiting mental programs, all fears, judgments, and false beliefs fall away effortlessly. By unveiling our natural state, all that is not life supporting simply vanishes.

How many members of your sign does it take to change a light bulb?

ARIES: Just one. You want to make something of it?

TAURUS: One, but just try to convince them that the burned-out bulb is useless and should be thrown away.

GEMINI: Two, but the job never gets done--they just keep discussing who is supposed to do it and how it's suppose to be done!

CANCER: Just one. But it takes a therapist three years to help them through the grieving process.

LEO: Leos don't change light bulbs, although sometimes their agent will get a Virgo in to do the job for them while they're out.

VIRGO: Approximately 1.000000 with an error of +/- one millionth.

LIBRA: Er, two. Or maybe one. No, on second thought, make that two. Is that okay with you?

SCORPIO: That information is strictly secret and shared only with the Enlightened Ones in the Star Chamber of the Ancient Hierarchical Order.
Or...None. Scorpios LIKE the dark.

SAGITTARIUS: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned-out light bulb?

CAPRICORN: I don't waste my time with these childish jokes.

AQUARIUS: Well, you have to remember that everything is energy, so.....

PISCES: Light bulb? What light bulb?

Why does it seem more acceptable for a man to raise a gun in war
than for him to express a single tear?
When will it be more appropriate to hug a stranger than to curse his name?
How is that Jesus and Mohammed, who came above all else to teach us love,
have been the rallying cry for so much hatred, judgment and retribution?
When we speak of war, the dead are classified into ours and theirs,
as if their blood is a different color;
as if their mother and father do not anguish and grieve
over the fates of their children.
Perhaps if we stopped to look in the eyes of our enemy
and saw our own reflection,
we would at last put down our weapons.
Who among us could kill another if before every shot that was fired
we were forced the shake the hand of our enemy?
Some may view these thoughts as the rantings of a bleeding heart.
But perhaps it is better to bleed these emotions and convictions
all over this page,
Than for the blood of another child, brother, or sister be shed
in a senseless act of war.

Jesus won't you remind me who you are?
Savior, Friend, Miracle Worker?
Each day,  praying you won't consider passing me by for one more qualified than I,
All my hope trusting that you will remember this ordinary servant.
In tearful mourning I consider the hope of your message,
The deep solace that your outstretched hand can bring;
Your love providing the strength which keeps my heart tethered to its higher calling.
Lost deep in a jungle of religious righteousness,
I search for the truth which will sooth my weary soul.
I consider all the wisdom of the ancients;
The most benevolent words of loved ones past and present;
I shuffle through the great books which have been written,
Yet it is your voice which satisfies my unquenchable longing,
You who transform religious doctrine into living truth,
Giving voice to the master which lives within  us all,
Providing a diverse path for the pilgrimage of every hungry soul.

I met a wonderful man with a heart filled with love, in October of 2003. He came to me as a client, and now is my friend. He lives in Long Beach, California, and frequently e-mails me poems that he writes. I have a file full of his poems. I picked out a few of my favorite poems to share with you.....

My partner David Recht and I had an amazing experience that I would like to share with you.....

I have been channeling various angels and spirit guides since December 1999. I have noticed over the years that I can channel my spirit guide to get directions when I am driving in the car and I am lost. David and I decided that I would channel the elemental earth King, Andimo, and ask him to guide us to a place we needed to go to. David, who is clairsentient, also channeled Andimo and dowsed on a map where to go to. I channeled Andimo through automatic writing and wrote down the directions regarding where Andimo wanted us to go.

David and I came up with very specific instructions: We were to drive down a particular freeway, get off at a specific exit, drive down a specific country highway, then go past a particular river for 12 miles to the end of a road that stopped in the middle of nowhere (we assumed it stopped at the edge of a forest). At the end of this road, which was just southeast of a particular lake, we were instructed to get out of the car and walk five miles to our destination.

The directions I channeled were so similar to the area David dowsed on the map, that we decided to jump in the car and go find what this particular destination was that Andimo wanted us to visit.

We nervously followed Andimo's directions, wondering if we had been sent off on a wild goose chase for nothing. When we arrived at our destination, before us, at the end of the road in the middle of nowhere stood a giant PYRAMID! This was not a "pyramid shaped" mountain or hill.....this was a perfectly shaped, flat, four-sided pyramid! I have never been so stunned in all of my life! What was an old, ancient pyramid doing in Washington State? And why had Andimo directed us there?

We parked our car at the designated spot and got out and began to walk for five miles, as instructed. We had no idea where we were going or why we were going there. Along the way there were several forks in our path. At each fork David and I each channeled Andimo to find out which direction to take. Every single time we both channeled the exact same directions.

It was getting late in the day and I was getting nervous about how far we were hiking. I didn't want to get back to our car after dark. I was told by my spirit guide, Mother Mary, to walk until 7pm. I was reluctant to walk until 7pm because I thought that that meant we had to turn around at 7pm and walk all the way back, which would leave us walking past dark. Mary assured me that everything was going to work out just fine and I would not be out walking past dark. This was all very confusing to me, but I had faith in Mary and Andimo, and did as I was instructed.

As it turned out, Andimo had guided us in a perfect clockwise circle all the way around the base of the pyramid, and we returned safely to the car at 7pm.

I then channeled Andimo one final time and asked him a few questions about our adventure. I was told that this indeed was an ancient pyramid, 38 million years old, that used to be used as a "galactic space station." He said it had not been used for thousands of years. He had guided David and me there to re-activate the pyramid. He instructed us to walk around the pyramid in a clockwise circle every 3 months for the next two years. There is a portal to get inside and someday we will be guided inside, but not right now, since it is dormant.

About four days later I had a dream where I was shown by my guides that there is no magnetic energy around the pyramid. I was told over and over that we needed to re-establish the magnetic energy. This was interesting to me since I had recently completed a 5-day channeling intensive course at the Rocky Mountain Mystery School, where we were instructed how to channel all the Magnetic Grid Masters from all the planets in order to re-establish and balance the flow of magnetic energy. So now David and I plan on channeling the Magnetic Grid Masters when we return to the pyramid.

This was a very exciting experience for me and David both, to say the least. I wonder where Andimo will take us to next?

Please Note: The moral of this story is that through channeling your spirit guides you can receive very clear and accurate information to help guide you on your path in this life, and help you fulfill your purpose. Activating this pyramid is part of my path and my purpose. I will not give out directions to this pyramid or take anyone with me to do my work unless I am told through channeled guidance that I am suppose to invite other people to help me complete my work there. I do not want to turn this pyramid into a tourist attraction, nor do I want to attract the attention of any groups, such as the government, who will tear it apart and destroy it's purpose for being there in the first place. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Please, use this story as an example for how you too can gain accurate guidance and insight in regards to your own personal life through channeling. Thank you.
