Raindrops
Frequently, I reflect on
my life experiences, and think about their lessons through the eyes
of THOTH and Maitreya's teachings.
Thank God for the sun that shines each
day, providing us with light and life. Thank God for the majestic
mountains that collect raindrops and snow that form the streams and
mighty rivers that provide us with waters of life. Thank God for
raindrops. Over the last three or four years, I have spoken to
several hundred people about the truth of this Mission. How can we
not talk about the Mission of Maitreya, and speak about the truth to
the people in our lives; our loved ones, our children, our friends,
our mothers and fathers and all of the people around us who are our
brothers and sisters? They do not accept the message when they first
hear it, but truth comes from raindrops. Some people listen to you
for a while, and nod their heads in agreement, but then change the
subject, ignore you, or turn away. Some people expound their
understandings and stop listening. Some people laugh at you when you
say you have found the truth, and that Christ is amongst us. Some
people become angry.
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you,
then you win."
- Mohandas Gandhi -
Gandhi spoke
an eternal truth. All of the prophets and servants of God were
rejected, but they continued to spread the truth and do the work of
God because eventually the darkness of ignorance falls away before
the light of truth with raindrops.
Around six
years ago, I worked at Apple Computer, and became fascinated with
software called iDVD and iMovie. I started working on videos with
pictures of my family, and it took me four months to finish my first
DVD. The songs, the pictures; I contemplated on every single detail.
My mother-in-law saw the video, and tears of joy streamed from her
eyes. I was told that this should be my profession. Several years
later I worked on a family video project as a gift for my
grandfather's 80th birthday. Many of the family photos
arrived only two days before my grandfather's birthday. I fixed torn
photos and made color corrections to bring life out of the old
photos. For reasons unknown to me at the time, I stayed up for 60
hours straight in order to have the DVD ready. When my family saw
the videos, there was not a dry eye in the room. The videos touched
a place deep in their hearts, and healed a rift that had existed in
parts of my family for a decade. God was there, and I knew the video
did not come from me. After the event was over, I collapsed into a
deep sleep from exhaustion, and decided I did not want to make any
more videos. I had not tasted the sweet waters of Maitreya's
teachings yet. It was after this video that I found the Mission of
Maitreya and read THOTH, and stopped celebrating birthdays. The day
to be celebrated in place of birthdays in the Mission of Maitreya is
Rededication day, a day in which we celebrate when we are initiated,
and born into God.
After listening to a Satsang from Maitreya, I contemplated deeply
about how this Mission could be spread in a greater way with the
talents that God had given me. One day I said to Maitreya that the
Mission needed a video to spread its message, and in the Communities
of Light, you can not complain without bringing a solution. Later I
had a vision of the introduction to a video. This vision became a
poster for the Mission.
A picture is worth
a thousand words. I saw a picture of three men hanging from crosses,
and in that moment saw a vision for a video of the story of
Maitreya. Fifteen months ago, I started working on a script and
video that is now called “The Mystery of God Revealed” (Revelation
10:7 Bible KJV). The project grew from the original 20 minute video
project into a 2 ½ hour story and documentary that is still
evolving. Much was learned from writing the script and working on
the video, and amazing discoveries and revelations came during the
process: prophecies from the Dead Sea Scrolls that are not in the
Tanuhk or Bible that are for parts of Maitreya's life - the
final script printed before the video was started was 77 pages
(Maitreya is the Seventh angel of revelation, God created the world
in seven days, and 7 is the perfect number of God ) - the song that
introduces Maitreya in the video called Lucid Dreams was 7:00
minutes - The first option for the Supernova special
effect from GIMP that was used to create the DVD cover was called
Adam7 [Maitreya is Adam reincarnated as the seventh angel of
Revelation [Revelation 10:7 Bible KJV] - permission from a painter
to use images from the period of The Bab (Ivan LLoyd). There were
many amazing moments during the making of this video.
Maitreya and the
Round Table reviewed the first video, and it was not found to be
perfect. The video became a Mission project (of course it
always was), to be reviewed by the members of the Round Table. Every
single frame is being reviewed, and has been for the last 6 months.
Some frames (9-12 seconds) have consumed 30 or more minutes of
discussion. One night a discussion led to the revelation by Maitreya
that Moses had prophecies of two prophets, not just one (Deuteronomy
18:15 and 18:18). I have no idea when the video will be
completed, but have come to understand that it will be done when it
is perfect. Each week I watch the edits on my iPhone, and realize
that the work is improving by God working through all of us, and I
am deeply humbled and grateful. The greatest lesson I have learned
from this project was from the teachings of Maitreya; no one man has
the solution, only God does. This work is just a raindrop.
Transcribing a
Satsang so that others can read the words of Maitreya's wisdom is a
raindrop. Talking with someone about the truth you have found, or
answering a question in an e-mail is a raindrop. Talking to people
on Paltalk, reading THOTH out loud in the chat rooms, attending MOM
meetings or transmission meditation, setting up a website, setting
up a meditation yoga center, creating a virtual New Jerusalem ,
editing THOTH so that the world can read it in eBook format on
iPhones or Kindles, each action for the Mission of Maitreya is a
raindrop. It takes many raindrops to form a stream. It takes many
streams to form a mighty river. It takes a mighty river to cut a
canyon through the rock of humanity's ego so that the Kingdom of
Heaven can be brought to Earth. Each action we do for the Mission is
a raindrop.
Thank God for the Son which provides us light and life by his words
of Wisdom. Thank God for the majestic mountain of Maitreya's
teachings, which collects the raindrops and snow that will form
mighty rivers to provide us with waters of life and truth ..... and
thank God for raindrops.
