I take on the big guys

You wouldn’t believe how much I and the Great Ones disagree. I don’t disagree with everything they say. Only some things. Enough things so I can say that I have taken them on. Of course, they don’t care what I think. I care what I think.  When I say I don’t agree, I am really saying that my understanding of what God says in Heavenletters is different from what a short quote even from a worthy source seems to say. I well know that I personally don’t know enough to have an opinion.

Don’t I have a nerve though?

Okay, I’ll begin with Sai Baba. Hmm, actually, at this moment, Sai Baba is the only one I can think of. With due respect, dear Sai Baba, I can’t agree with this statement attributed to you: “It is only in the depths of silence that the Voice of God can be heard.”

How can I agree with that statement? Not when God in Heavenlettersâ„¢ says He is available all the time anywhere everywhere. And not when this is also my everyday experience. God has been near and dear to me and given me His words in the midst of activity — at airports, in the back of cars, and when other things are very much on my mind. I can be laughing or crying, and God comes through just the same. God in Heavenletters has clearly said we don’t have to wait for anything before Godwritingâ„¢.

I don’t remember whether I said it or God did, but one of us said: “It’s a good thing we don’t have to wait for silence before Godwriting, or there wouldn’t be much Godwriting!�

One of the points that God in Heavenletters makes is that we don’t have to be a great anything in order to hear His Voice.  We can be the most ordinary person in the world and Godwrite™. We could be anything at all and Godwrite. God has said that all it takes is the desire, the sitting down, the listening, and a notebook and a pen to write with.

You said it in the last sentence,” the listening” When you listen are you not shutting down the racket the neighbor’s lawnmower makes or the radio. I listen to God when driving and I hear GOD’s voice, Sai Baba is teaching the right way for everyone same as Jesus.I try to use discernment. I do not think Sai Baba cares if anybody agrees or not. It therefor that he never deigned to defend himself. I Love Sai Baba as I love you All Jack

Beloved Jack, I would never take you on!

I just have to say that my disagreement with this great sage has nothing to do with my regard for him. Because I disagree doesn’t mean I I do not recognize all his good. I also recognize that my taking one sentence out of context may be unfair.

Jack, I also don’t like to think that, because of someone else’s greatness, that I must agree with them on everything and leave unsaid what I think.

Would I disagree with Sai Baba if he were right here in front of me? Probably not. I might feel it unnecessary to give my opinion. It’s not like I’m trying to change his mind!

Loving you, Gloria

To me there is a difference between listening to God and shutting out the noise of the neighbor’s lawnmower. I don’t think they’re the same thing. We don’t have to shut out noise first and then listen to God. God in Heavenletters says we don’t have to do anything in order to listen to Him. Why would the sound of a lawnmower have to bother me in the first place?

To me, Silence and Stillness are the place within each of us where we connect with God and our Higher Selves. It has nothing to do with the chaos, confusion and physical noise of the temporal world. I am learning to Godwrite with a roommate yammering away at me and interrupting me incessantly, but the Still Place inside is still accessible, unless I allow myself to get annoyed and thus obscure my access to it.
So, my Dearly Beloved Friends, we are ALL CORRECT, and I will meet with you in the Silence where we are ALL ONE.
