QUESTION: Masters, I’ve been interested in the spirit world for the whole of my life. Now I’m 55 years-old and been working as a spiritual coach for 20 years. I’ve been asking for a higher guidance so that I could help my clients and myself better. Still I feel I do not have contact with spirit guides, angels, Akashic records etc. Is there a way for me to make that contact happen? What is my soul plan like? Am I out of my path with this deep rooted hope to contact spirit world consciously? Or what? ~Jaana, Finland
ANSWER: You are putting a lot of pressure on yourself to be something you are not, at least at this time. The work you have done has been extremely valuable to your clients. You have been an introduction to spirituality for a tremendous number of people. What you provided for them is really all they were capable of assimilating into their current being.
It is only human to want to be in contact with the “top of the line,” “best of the best,” but those are really ego/third-dimensional strivings. That is not to say that you cannot establish these connections; it is only a caution to you to do it for yourself and not for what you can do for others. A soul’s personal journey can outshine what they can tell another about the process.
If you desire to communicate more completely with your guides and other spirits, you need to practice without expectations. The most important step is being able to totally clear your head of your own thoughts and concepts. If you are imagining or thinking about what you want, the spirits cannot transfer their thoughts to you – they just get muddled.
Go into a deep meditation with the intention that contact be established – and only with beings of the light. Don’t push; don’t get bored; just wait patiently. Do this also when you fall asleep at night, with the additional intention that you remember all that happened while your body slept. This is information, first and foremost, to assist you in your enlightenment.
Once you have connected and regularly communicate with the spirits, ask them to show you how to get into the akashic records and what benefit they can have for you and others. Be careful, because not all people are ready to know too much about their history – it can be as harmful as it is helpful.
