Rest In Peace Jerry Hicks

It is with great sadness and heavy heart that I am posting this tribute to Jerry Hicks', husband of Esther Hicks, of the Abraham-Hicks teachings. Jerry passed on Friday, November 18, 2011. I will sincerely miss Jerry as he was a crucial part of the Abraham-Hicks group in that he often times asked the questions that were on most everyone else's mind. The Abraham teachings is where I first heard about "The Law of Attraction" that I have talked so much about on this blog and I have acquired many of their CD's, meditations and books over the years. My heartfelt condolences go out to Esther Hicks and her daughter as they go through this difficult time of Jerry's transition into Nonphysical form. Here is the email I received from her only moments ago:

Dear, dear Friends,

Our sweet Jerry made his transition into Nonphysical last Friday. How sweet the Vortex is feeling to him today!

Jerry said to me when we came together over 30 years ago that given the difference in our ages that it was likely “that I will cut out on you early,” to which I replied, “I don’t mind.” His joy of life and continual new discovery of purpose kept his life feeling fresh and we shared such joyous eagerness for life.

Over the years, Abraham has consistently insisted that there is no death. Again and again they have reminded us that there is only life and more life and more life. It has taken me some time to understand this, and I honestly must say I have not yet fully come to terms with it, but I do believe that in what we are calling Jerry’s death he is discovering the next logical step of life that Abraham has always been talking about. And at times I am catching a glimpse of the bigness of what Jerry is feeling and while I am still pretty mad at him for not sticking around longer to surprise and delight me in all the ways he has been doing throughout our 30 years together I accept fully that the next logical step of joyous life for Jerry was to be found in his re-emergence into Nonphysical.

Since 1985 it has been Jerry and Esther and Abraham and I believe with everything that I am that that has not changed. I know that Jerry will continue to be the third powerful point of the triad of Energy that makes up the Abraham experience and I am certain that his new vantage point will be, as it has always been, of advantage to us all.

I know for sure that Jerry will help me, in time, release my own personal resistance to physical death, because I will not be able to maintain that resistance and also play easily with him. And my desire to continue not only my Abraham experience but also my Jerry experience I am certain he will be the catalyst to help me do what Abraham has been trying to help us all do all along.

Once again, Jerry is out there leading the way for me. But the difference this time is that I must find the way. I am not there yet, but it is my absolute promise to myself that I will find the way, because it is the most natural thing in the world to do and because Jerry has provided for me the reason to do it.

I am eager about what is ahead and while I cannot begin to explain or even imagine the details of how it is all going to play out, I am certain that it will be fun.

I am such a fortunate girl, to have been able to play with Jerry and Abraham and all of you for so many wonderful years and I am so eager to continue doing more of the same for many more years to come. I feel certain right now that not only has nothing gone wrong, but things are going especially right. It will be different, for sure, but it will also be very, very good.

I’m feeling such love for you all, and for Abraham and most of all for Jerry. And as I have said to him a thousand or more times through the years, “Well isn’t life just a kick in the pants?”

Love,

Esther

11-11-11...Ascension has begun

Several friends came over to share the spiritual holiday of 11-11-11, what I call "Earth Ascension Day". We watched spiritual movies, did a couple of meditations to "Fire the Grid" and connected to the rest of the world that was also in the process of connection. It was a great feeling; personally I felt the vibrations in my chest as if my heart was being "tuned"...and indeed, it was. I have been watching Shelley Yates "Fire the Grid" movement and felt personally called by the symbols that she has received from the Light Beings that speak with her. If you are unfamiliar with "Fire the Grid", you can read Shelley Yates' story at www.firethegrid.com.

Some people were expecting that "A-HA" moment and they may have gotten it or conversely, may have been disappointed, but for many more of us, the feelings were very subtle. But we know that in the days and months ahead, good things are coming. At the end of the day Friday, I knew I was going to sleep well. And I did and slept even better last night.

There are many who don't understand how I maintain such a positive spirit and attitude all the time. They see my posts on Facebook, most of which are uplifting, positive, spiritual quotes. I even had a friend ask me recently "How do you do it? I mean stay so positive all the time." Here is my answer to that question...

Four and a half years ago, I had an experience that changed my world. I came out of that experience a profoundly different person. Since that time, I have been led by Divine Guidance to many truths that ring so hard in my gut, I not only believe, I know them to be truth. I have had many great spiritual teachers and masters placed in my path. I am grateful for every one of them. At times, my learning has come at such a rapid pace that it has almost been overwhelming. I have done my best to keep up as I knew that I had to. I now look back at the person I was before my experience and see someone completely different. It is almost as if I am looking at someone else's life. It matters not to me whether anyone believes or not. I have knowing in my heart.

The things that I have been shown have led to an “awakening” of what and who I really am; what and who we all really are. We are all eternal light-filled beings. I knew I had a soul prior to my experience but I now know it in a much different way. I feel it. I am not unique; there are many of us around the world who have been led to this same truth. We are called light-workers and have received this information through Divine Guidance. And we have all been told we have a responsibility to share what we know with everyone who will listen.

One of the things I was told is that 11-11-11 is a very significant day not only for Earth but for all of mankind. It is a day to join in Collective, Christ-filled Consciousness to raise the vibration level of ourselves and the Earth to bring us into greater awareness collectively; awareness that we have Divine Power within us to change the world for the better. To become of one mind to make the world better, not only for those that are here now but for our children and our children’s children.

One of the people I have been led to is a woman named Shelley Yates. Shelley also had a profound experience as well and while her experience was different than mine, the outcome has been the same. I knew it when I was first led to her website. She has started a movement called “Fire the Grid” to help with Earth’s ascension into a higher dimension, a higher frequency. This is done by all of us raising our vibration levels, en masse. While I don’t know Shelley personally, I knew that I had been led to her website for a reason.

One of the ways we raise our vibration levels is by positive thinking. In recent years, I have surrounded myself with positive people. I have learned to focus on positive things and have had many spiritual teachers and masters placed in my path to help with my endeavors. It is said that when the student is ready, the teacher will be there. This couldn't be more true! I don't watch the news, don't read the newspapers. Some people are shocked by this! But those media outlets are filled with negativity. It is almost impossible to eliminate all the negative aspects of real life, but when I see something negative, I choose not to focus on it. When negative thoughts come into my head, I change them as quickly as possible. I have learned that I have the power to do this and I have been doing this for so long that it is now a habit. I don't even have to think about it most of the time.

I personally know people who struggle with this type of thinking but they also know that they desire a change in their lives. I think on some level they even understand that the change has to start with them. I've been asked..."why is it so difficult for me to change my negative thinking?" My answer to that question is because basically we are lazy and it is much easier to slip into old bad habits than it is to change those habits and adopt something different. But it's true, the change in the world will not come until we change ourselves and our own thinking.

Blessings, Peace, Love, Light to all!
