Slowly from slumber they emerge.

Awake Angels live in the world beyond the sky and come to this story for entertainment. The story is complex but a story nevertheless and the Awake Angels know this and this is why they are able to enjoy it so much and remain one hundred percent happy one hundred percent of the time. If they were ever to experience a moment's unhappiness they would realise they had nodded off and rapidly use their divine intellect and divine insight to reverse the situation.

At this time the Awake Angels are trying to awaken as many of their brothers as they can, as quickly as they can. This means they have to stay awake themselves and shine their light of peace and happiness so others can find the path. How is it possible to stay awake in such a world of action and distraction?

Continuous attention is needed. No need for tension in this, just attention. How do the Awake's do this? What is their secret? Practise, over and over again. These Angels are disciplined because they know the value of what they are doing. They experience the benefits first hand in the day-to-day. Why else would one spend the time?

Remaining detached and a guest

The Awake Angels visit this fictional story and are entertained as detached observers. They know the truth of this drama and they are keen to share it with their brothers, the rest of humanity, and awaken them. Awake means to experience a life of one hundred percent happiness and joy and to be light and to easily rise above those things that others find difficult.

The Awake Angels know that all are immortal angels and are Godlike in their nature. They view everyone through the filters of knowledge and see beyond the physical appearance and the role being played. This is why they remain light.

The Awake Angels know their true home, their Father the King and their family of noble brothers. They are safe and secure and have no needs which is why they can easily come and go between the story and their home without getting trapped and experiencing sorrow.

They know the truth and the truth sets them free and keeps them free as long as they remember it. They have very clear intellects and can easily distinguish between the true and the false and they have the strength to be able to put their decisions and judgements into practical actions.

All the Awake Angels efforts goes into maintaining and strengthening their awakened state and waking up the rest of their sleeping family. This is why they are one hundred percent happy for all time. They strive to establish and maintain the perspective of being a guest as well as an instrument for world transformation. This enables them to perform their task without any burdens.

Peace is just a state of mind

Peace is just a state of mind. Silence is too. Thinking of silence makes the mind silent. The Awake Angels reside in the world of silence with their silent Father and silent royal brothers.

The Awake Angels are beings of light, bodiless, egoless and eternal. Eternally peaceful, eternally blissful, eternally silent. The eternal home of silent light is the home of all souls, but not all souls can reside there at this time. Most are imprisoned in this corporeal world, the world of constant change.

Awake Angels live with their beautiful Father and their noble family in eternal silence. When their is silence of the mind, bliss, peace, love, contentment is the order of the day. Awake Angels would rather be in their home than in the story that takes place in the physical world. There is nothing here that can bind them. They come here to serve their family and help take them back to the silent home.

The silent, eternal, dimension of light is where souls are refreshed so as they can begin their journey to the corporeal world and play their pre-determined parts.

All are subtle, invisible beings of light but...

All are subtle, invisible beings of light but some are aware of that and others aren't. All are residents of the home, the dimension of light beyond the Sky but some are aware of that and others aren't.

All are the children of the King of Kings but most don't know it or experience it to be true. The challenge after discovering this knowledge is staying in the awareness of that continuously. Staying awake.

The Awake Angels are one hundred percent awake one hundred percent of the time and so experience life to be a game, great fun and very entertaining. The task of the Awake Angels is to stay awake and to awaken all others.

The Awake Angels, when engaged in the Toy Story, are aware they are acting, playing a part and they are guests in the play. They know that this play is a temporary activity and not reality. It is fictional, that is, it is not the truth.

The Awake Angels are always aware of this truth one hundred percent of the time. Staying in this awareness means they are free and without any sorrow. They are one hundred percent happy one hundred percent of the time. Being awake means they have everything they need. Complete happiness, complete peace, complete contentment. Their light shines automatically and has an effect on their Asleep Family. It helps the asleep ones to wake up.

Knowing the truth means to have everything. Nothing is lacking and therefore these angels want for nothing from the insane play. Nothing of the drama affects them. Their light remains ignited and radiant.

I am not Phillihp Gough

This is not me.

I am not Phillihp Gough. No really, I'm not. Phillihp Gough, as mentioned before on this blog, is a fictional character who exists for a comparatively short period of time and then ceases to exist for awhile. Quite a long while. However, I am the actor who plays the part of Phillihp Gough in the 5000 year long drama series called 'Life'. 

This drama series, eternally running at a location near you, has a very large cast (would you believe 7.5 billion?) including Ellen Long (nee Cobb) another fictional character! Ellen Long (nee Cobb) might have been the character I was playing before Phillihp Gough but I can't be sure. Ellen played the part of Phillihp Gough's great grandmother. Ellen 'ceased to be' at 171 Chamberlayne Road Eastleigh and Phillihp 'came into being' at the same address a short time later.

The reason I call Phillihp Gough a fictional work of art is to clarify and answer the question 'who am I'? Readers of this blog will know that 'I' am an angel but then so are you. The difference at this point of time is that I am 'awake' and you are more than likely 'asleep'. Or put another way, aware or unaware. It could also be said enlightened or ignorant. 

I could however, have it all wrong. You might know who you really are, though my guess is you'd probably be referring to the character and not the actor. Actually, it is easy to tell. 

If you believe 'the character' to be you then you will experience both happiness and sorrow in your life and you will fluctuate between these two. If you believe the actor to be you then your life will be constantly peaceful and happy no matter what happens around you. You decide.

So who am I? I am an Awakened Angel and I, like you, come from a dimension beyond the sky. I am invisible but never-the-less am pleased to meet you.

Awake Angels can even observe their own fictional characters in the Toy Story

When angels first come into the drama play they are fully awake but only for a short time. They do know, in the beginning, that they are not the character they are playing, but time does funny things to their awareness and over time they forget. Just forget. Nothing sinister there at all, just memory loss. It could be called, falling asleep.

Even though the characters they are playing don't experience sorrow initially, this forgetting, sleeping, eventually leads them into doing things that aren't so good for their emotional, mental and physical health. 

What starts off as a toy story, a game of fun, happiness, excitement, gradually becomes tainted. That's the way of things. Order to disorder, new to old. The immortal Awake Angel becomes the mortal Asleep Angel, the human being.

Eventually, slowly at first, the angels awaken and once awake begin the process of awakening others and transforming the world. 

It's just a play. Let the fun begin!

It's just a play, so let's play. The Awake Angels enjoy every second of the play, the complex plots and characters, the intricate goings on, the amusing situations that their Asleep Brothers get themselves into. 

All the Awake Angels need to do to enjoy the play, the eternal story, is to stay awake and they do this easily with the support of the Father, the King of Kings and their noble brothers. The Awake Angels know that madness, insanity awaits them if they fall asleep so they pay attention to maintaining the one hundred percent clarity of their intellect so as they can easily discern between truth and fiction. 

Truth is they are eternal, loveful, peaceful, content beings of light from the dimension beyond the sky and falsehood is that they are the fictional characters that they portray in order to participate within the play.

The Awake Angels would think it bizarre to believe that they actually were those puppets who participate in the play, those cartoon characters but they know that many, most of their brothers believe that to be true and so end up experiencing sorrow along with their moments of happiness.

So the awake angels go about their business at this time, staying awake and helping their slumbering brothers to awaken so they can begin playing again.

Lucky Stars

Observing the Lucky Stars, the fortunate angels who are awake and able to clearly see themselves as they really are and see the play as small and insignificant. The Awakened Angels can be involved in the drama yet remain detached from it. To them it is easy and natural to stay in the awareness of their divine and noble nature, their wonderful family of noble princes and their Father the King of Kings.

These Lucky Stars are one hundred percent free from desire, one hundred percent free from sorrow, one hundred percent free from Maya. With the help of the Father and the family they are able to remain free from the madness of the drama at this time and serve their brothers who have not yet awakened. This service is their greatest happiness, their greatest joy.

For the Lucky Stars their is no greater pleasure than to help the members of their family, the whole world of souls, re-discover themselves, to awaken and transform their life from sorrow into eternal happiness.

Lest we forget

What happens if we do forget? Forget what? Forget who we are, where we are from and why we are here. Forget the Father and the laws of action. Forget we are immortal and eternal. Who is this 'we' anyway?

If we forget we die, if we remember we die. How so? One death contains constant happiness and freedom and the other eternal bondage and sorrow. Which will you choose?

This circular story contains our birth and death and our birth again. The elaborate story consumes and blinds us over time and yet time itself is the healer which brings us back to life. Remember this and joy becomes your birthright. Forget and life becomes a long arduous journey stumbling in the dark. Lest we forget!

Avyakt Bapdada 1st April 1982

"To become an angel means that whilst in a corporeal body you stay in the form of light, that is, with your intellect you remain constantly in the stage up above. Angels don’t set foot on the ground. How will you stay up above? With the intellect. Let the foot of the intellect always be in an elevated stage. 

Are you becoming such angels, or have you already become those? You are Brahmins anyway. If you weren’t Brahmins, you wouldn’t have got permission to come here. However, to what extent have you Brahmins adopted the angelic stage? Angels are shown with bodies of light. The more you consider yourself to be a soul, an embodiment of light, the more you consider yourself to be as light as you walk and move around, the more you will feel as though you are an angel walking in a body of light. 

An angel means to be one who has no connection with the awareness of his own body. To break your connection with body consciousness - not from the body, but from the consciousness of the body – means to be an angel. When your connection with the body is broken, you will then leave here. However, at the moment, your connection with the consciousness of the body has to be broken. 

You will then love this life a great deal and Maya will not attract you in any way. Achcha."

"I come to this practice to observe those sparkling lights, that is, the Awake Angels. They sparkle because there is no eclipse of Raven.

For them they are completely free of Raven and Maya. Being fully awake they have come out of the drama completely. Not even the tiniest thread holds them. They are completely detached. For them, they see the drama but they see it as a story. Small, insignificant. A story that does not relate to them. They are beyond that drama. They belong in the angelic world, in the angelic home, with their Father, their brothers. For them the drama is a place to visit, a place to do service and they do service by shining light. Their service is one of shining light, dispelling darkness, removing confusion, giving clarity. 

These angels, when awake, they naturally sparkle. They are clear, accurate, it's their natural nature. When waking up, that is when the eclipse of Raven is removed, they can't help but shine brightly. 

They are true sparkling stars and so their service depends on staying awake because when they're awake that bright sparkling star is visible, it attracts, it brings the other angels close, into contact. It exposes truth. 

And so for the Awake Angels to be free to shine, free to sparkle, to be free to come and go, to serve the other angels, this is the greatest happiness. To be their natural selves for them is the greatest fortune."

Not everywhere's in Somerset, Scrumpy.

The fictional character Phillihp Gough spent sometime in the lovely county of Somerset, England, but not a lot. Mostly it was just passing through on the way to the even lovelier Devon and Cornwall. He probably went on the very train shown in the picture on his way to Dawlish, Devon, with his best friend of the time, Raymond White and his parents, for a short holiday at the sea-side.

So it's clear that not everywhere is in Somerset. The sky beyond the sky is not in Somerset. Do you remember your home of light? No trains, just eternal silence, peace, bliss. More than enough to feel content.

Be still and know that I am God!

I think that should read, 'Be still (inwardly silent) and you'll realise that you are similar to God'.

We're similar, God and I but it's taken this one millennia to remember that. It's not that this one is God but there are many similarities which are significant, in the scheme of things. Take immortality for example. 

God is immortal and we are immortal. Being immortal is significant. It places a whole new slant on life knowing that we always exist. Knowing this should effect how one thinks and acts, day to day, minute to minute, second to second. Why, even just thinking about it produces shivers down the backbone. Nice shivers.

God is eternal and we are eternal. Nice one. No more death. Never born, will never die. Nice thoughts to contemplate whilst time passes by. 

God is bliss and we are bliss. Heck, what does the word even mean? Let's just publish and get back to this one!!

Behind the veil of illusion

The truth is we are God like, but what does that mean? Should it actually read, 'were God like'? A diamond is always a diamond even if covered in mud, right? The point is, our essence hasn't changed it's just become hidden so we still are God like. Our essence is locatable once we know where and how to look for it.

Well, we now know what God is like. What 'He' does and doesn't do. We know 'His' form, 'His' abode. Let's see how we shape up to the 'God list'. 

God is eternally;

• The Ocean of Love (hmmmm)
• The Ocean of Bliss (hmmmm)
• The Ocean of Peace (hmmmm)
• Eternally Powerful (hmmmm)
• Eternally Knowledgeful (hmmmm)
• Resides beyond the sky (not at the moment)
• Is a tiny point of conscious energy (we too)
• Eternal (we too)
• Immortal (we too)

Well, three point five out of nine. It's a start. My behaviour doesn't suggest I'm Bapsaman (equal to God) yet. If I was to remember it constantly it would be true. So it's a question of forgetting, of falling asleep. I didn't know my lineage before but now that I do, all that is necessary to make it so again is to stay awake.

Coming down to play our part(s)

The Awakened Angels come from their home of light where they reside with their divine family and Father, into this corporeal world and begin to play their part(s). For some, most, it is one part, maybe two or three but for others as many as eighty four different parts, eighty four different characters. Different gender, different nationality, different status but some angelic being.

As time passes in the play the Awakened Angels fall asleep and forget they are eternal, divine, non-physical beings and begin to associate and become entangled in matter and the role they are playing. Then sorrow comes into their life whereas before there was only joy, happiness, peace and bliss. They call themselves by the name of the part they are playing believing that to be who they are. The driver of the car thinks he's the car!!

Sleeping Angels but still angels

The Sleeping Angels, though still angels, are behaving badly at this time. Once an angel falls asleep they forget lots of things. In particular, they forget they are God like in nature, Bapsaman even, and that leaves them feeling a little insecure. Insecurity leads to possessiveness, possessiveness to greed and attachment and before you know what's happened these angels are getting up to all sorts of actions which have repercussions, the like of which we won't go into here. Suffice it to say that if their mother heard about it she'd probably blush.

Anyway, it's all part of the wonderful toy story which lasts 5000 years, or there abouts. Not to worry, it all turns out well in the end. After a lot of sorrow the sleeping angels realise (thanks to their Dad) the truth about themselves, they then pull their heads in and change their behaviour and everyone goes home.

Bliss

Bliss is the natural condition of the Light Beings. Have you experienced it? This one has. It comes and it goes but it has come and it will come again, constantly. When in the home, with The Father and The Angelic Family, bliss is the experience of all. When awake and aware we are eternal beings and that it is all a game bliss becomes the experience.

One day soon, even this corporeal world will be blissful. Though it will fade with time, yet it's very presence in the beginning time is remembered and becomes the aim for some.

Can bliss be described or only experienced? Only experienced. Just knowing and believing such a state is possible enables it to become so. Make it so.

One hundred percent clarity

One hundred percent clarity results in zero suffering. If there is any trace of suffering in ones life then it means there is not clarity and that one has become consumed by the story of mortality. Once achieving clarity one has to maintain it.

Clarity means knowing the truth about the self and others. Knowing one is immortal, eternal. Knowing the home, the Father and the family. Knowing the story as a story and being the observer of the activities within the story.

Having one hundred percent clarity means knowing one is love and is loved eternally by God. 

Toy Story

The Awakened Angels see this world as a toy story, filled with interesting characters and fascinating activities. It is very entertaining. They pay attention to maintaining this perspective throughout their time here. They are aware that it is possible to fall asleep and dream, believing this toy story to be reality. They can become involved in this story, interacting with the toy characters, but they know that these characters are really their brother angels who are asleep and believe the toy characters are them. So in their interactions the Awakened Angels diplomatically try to draw the attention of the toys to the  reality of who they really are and what is going on.

One way they do this is by maintaining their own state of 'awakeness', thus remaining light and carefree in spite of all that is going on around them. This might set a good example which others might become curious about and begin asking questions.

Another way is to engage in conversation around the subject of reality and observe whether this has any positive affect on the toys who then become inquisitive.

The toys however, might be having so much fun playing their character that they don't want to wake up, but that will change over time and they will then begin to look for ways to end their dream which has become a nightmare.
