CHAPTER 1

Lesson One:You and Your Physical Universe

At a convention, I met Joe who came from a small town in middleUSA. He looked lost since this was his first time in Los Angeles. Itwas the first time he had attended a New Age Spiritual Fair. He hadan urging to attend and see why he felt the need to check it out. Ashe approached my booth, I saw he was nervous with a worried lookon his face. I asked him why he was at the Fair. He nervously said,"oh just exploring". Then I asked him "who was he"? He states thathis name is Joe. Again I asked him; "who was he? He bewilderedsaid "I do not know". I asked him a second question; "why are youhere and on Earth at this time"? Puzzled, he looked at me and said,"I am seeking to know that answer myself". I then stated that I wasa spiritual advisor and could help him to find the information hewas seeking. So we sat down, and I shared some information withhim and also explained to him to meditate on the information hejust received. Thanking me, he left to ponder the information he hadreceived.

Why are you here?

Have you ever asked yourself this question? Has anyone asked youthis question? Have you answered this question? Do you know whyyou are here? This question has been asked by thousands of seekerson the path to understand why they were born and what are theybringing to the world or what are they to experience, learn, and knowin this lifetime. This is for the many people who have come to sharetheir unique gifts with us, and the world. We benefit from these giftedpeople being here walking amongst us. We say everyone is unique,but it requires us to delve deeper to find out how special becausemany times it is not that apparent.

How did you arrive?

Yes, we all know you were born, and now you are growing or allgrown up. So why are you here? What are you doing here at this time,this lifetime or incarnation? The answer lies within you, and youneed to know the answer. One of the lessons is to learn who you areand why you are here. Once you know this then you can understandwhy you were born this lifetime and will possibly understand yourdestiny.

Everyone has a birth name, and as a person grows up they try tofigure out why they are here and what they are going to do with theirlives. The problem lies in what is the truth and what goes beyondassumption. Are you here for one reason or are you here for morethan the reason you think. We need to know why we are here toinsure we are fulfilling what and why we were born at this time. Weare to know what needs to be accomplished while we are here.

So where do we begin?

First let's understand where we are and what we need to begin tolearn. We were born to learn lessons and experience life on theEarth plane and have grownup after being nurtured by our parents,extended family, friends, community and local environment. Thishas caused us to think we are who we are, and why we are here. Thishas helped stabilize our life so we could grow and prosper in thislife. For some, this is quite grounding, and for others there is alwaysa question in our minds as to "is this all there is" or "am I only whatI appear to know or is there more I need to know" or "is there morethat I need to learn and understand". In everything we do, we learnabout ourselves.

For some of us, we are truly satisfied not knowing anymore, and forothers we feel we need to learn and know much more which for someappears to be driven by some inner yearning for more information.For others, they are on a quest, to learn the real meaning of their life.For we then ask the question again, why are you here? If you trulywant to know, the answer lies within you and you must begin thesearch within you for that is where the answer can be found.

How do we begin?
