We’re Running a Marathon | Steve Beckow

(Golden Age of Gaia)

Unlike most sports events, a marathon is not about winning for most people, but about finishing.

And that’s a little like life.

We’re all of us running a marathon, from here to reunion with the One.

This marathon is laid on. Everyone has to run it – spiritually, not physically.

Since everyone is going to run it and it doesn’t matter when we complete it, it doesn’t matter that some are at Mile 51 and others at Mile 136. Soon we’ll be at Mile 136 too … but they’ll be at Mile 210.

It won’t work for us to look at those behind us and scorn them. We were once where they were.

Ramakrishna put the general matter this way: All will get fed. Some in the morning. Some at midday. Some in the evening. But none will go without. (1)

Seeing the matter this way takes away all grounds for making the journey competitive. Today I’m here. Tomorrow I’ll be there. Today you’re there. Tomorrow you may be somewhere else. Some are ahead of us; some are behind. Where are the grounds for snobbishness or exclusivity?

What very few of our sci fi writers seem to understand is the nature and feel of the love that exists on the higher planes. What this love makes possible is a world that works for everyone. I have no words, and I haven’t seen anyone else finding them either, to describe that love. It simply has to be experienced to be known and understood.

Were I to come right out and say I’m helping to build a world that works for everyone, some folks might smile. How can a world be made to work for everyone?

Well, the higher dimensions do – and this is why: Because of the nature of that love. That love is the great fact of this universe and any other universe that exists, I’d be willing to bet. It’s the great fact of life. It’s what makes this world work, as well as go round.

I’ve twice been immersed in an Ocean of Love. (2) Obviously that exists on a higher dimension (Michael said Seventh). It wouldn’t be visible here, but it’s no less the case, I suspect, that love is in fact everything – here and there.

I’ve spent the day sorting through and revising my graphics and flowcharts for Michaelangelo & Partners. I still feel things are imminent. The military in Brazil waiting for the world’s militaries to go before installing Bolsonaro seems to be one of the most pressing determinants. The release of the Biden laptop contents gives a strong push to military intervention.

The fact that the greenback is no longer trading except for the US, Canada and Mexico, that the new rainbow currency is now asset-backed, and that all of BRICS is on the gold standard, with countries rushing to join them, seems to suggest that the Reval can’t be held back for long.

Whatever the case, I did notice that my ideas on what I want to do after the Reval have matured and expanded in the process of waiting. There’s also a pattern to the group of companies and projects and an overall shape to them that I still haven’t fully discerned yet. But I can feel it.

The Creation Formula asks us to dream of what we really want. I dreamt today of what I wanted my group of companies to accomplish and one of the results I ended up with was I “created” St. Michael’s University on the spot. Here are its originally-intended fields of interest:



When, after a number of drafts, I finally had the arrangement the way it appears here, I felt a flood of satisfaction which I’ve never felt before, as if I was right on target.

So I’m restless and feeling sure that things will break soon. At the same time, I’m feeling confident and ready.
