Out of our appreciation for your support, I’ve bundled together all my articles written while fully or partially in the desireless state. The pdf is attached, below.

Here’s the intro.

Introduction

On June 6, 2021 I began an experience of desirelessness that lasted roughly for three weeks before it dissipated and I regained everyday consciousness.

It began after a lecture to a Vaccine Choice Canada-related spiritual group. It involved the unloading of a download that I was given at birth, as discussed in these pages.

Was it a higher-level experience? Undoubtedly. But I’m not sure it was a higher-dimensional experience. I’ll explain.

I’ve visited higher dimensions and the moment one does one is drenched in a love so transforming that one never wants to leave. This is Paradise Garden, Elysium, the Garden of Eden.

This one did not feature that, even if it was higher than my normal everyday consciousness.

But each dimension also has twelve subdimensions. I could still be in the Fourth Dimension and yet have experienced a higher subdimension. That’s what I think happened.

The desirelessness that I felt, unto itself, had no characteristic. It was simply the absence of desire and attachment. It’s the consequences of that which are noteworthy.

One consequence is that, in its absence, the mind is silent and still. All the background chatter subsides.

In that space, one gets to see how things work. The ego arises in response to a desire. We have a disembodied “want” travelling around our minds until a responsive “I” or ego state arises to satisfy that want. We now have “I want,” which either goes toward divine ends and pursuits (only good karma for that) or worldly ends and pursuits (BEEP! Fail!).

The satisfaction of worldly wants, as it turns out, doesn’t help us to satisfy the purpose of life, and so we incur further education (i.e., karma). It isn’t bad. It’s just not helpful.

The purpose of life is to know our true identity. Our true identity is God and, when one of us realizes that, if you can imagine it, God meets God. (1)

That’s a source of delight for God and is the reason She created heaven and Earth. 

My desireless state seemed to relate to worldly desires only. I was quite strongly drawn to spiritual pursuits like meditation and walks alone in nature.

As frequently happens, when I write about a state, I enter it and so desirelessness has come calling right now.

The desireless state is peaceful. And true peace is like granite, a strong foundation upon which to build and from which to act. (2)

All the voices that rob us of power are quiet in the desireless state. There’s no self-criticism, hesitancy, self-doubt, low self-worth, etc. Just as you’d expect, we’ve significantly removed the overburden of issues and resentments and so the Natural Self can shine through.

And, in the space created by their absence, I felt competent, confident, peaceful, balanced, and self-trusting. In other words, my Natural Self was shining through. (3)

However no higher state prior to Ascension is permanent and so this one left. But now I know – and I can never unknow – just why all the scriptures tell us to be at least moderate in our worldly desires and attachments; preferably to leave them all behind but very hard for most people, particularly in western societies.

However if we want our minds to be still and silent, if we want to experience real peace and see its value, then letting go of our worldly desires and attachments seems a good way to be the way to go about it.

(2) Archangel Michael: So, when you think of things that you should do, are supposed to do, might do, and it doesn’t ignite that fire of excitement, and that granite of peace, then you are being given an important piece of information, which is ‘look elsewhere.’ Is that clear?” (“Transcript ~ Archangel Michael: You Have Chosen to Be the New Paradigm of Love, May 31, 2018,” June 7, 2018 at http://goldenageofgaia.com/2018/06/07/transcript-archangel-michael-you-have-chosen-to-be-the-new-paradigm-of-love-may-31-2018/.)

Steve Beckow: I had an experience of deep peace some years ago. I think it was about 2015. And I was surprised to find that peace was so substantial. It felt to me as if I were standing on a granite rock and I remember saying that to myself. And then I remember a couple of years later you actually used that word, [saying] that peace was like granite. …

Archangel Michael: There are so many divine qualities that do feel amorphous, light, airy, like a spring day. And yet peace (you have this expression), you can take it to the bank. It feels like ballast. It feels like granite because it is solid. And dare I say immutable. That is why I continue to keep emphasizing that that peace [is] within, that rock-solid granite [lies] within.
