Was this Book "Channelled" ?

I  have often been asked if "How To Find God In Everything" is a "channelled" book. If "channelling" means the information is given by disembodied beings from a higher dimension whilst the writer is unaware of what is being written (also called "automatic writing"), then the answer must be "No"! I was fully conscious whilst planning and writing this book and I take full responsibility for the outcome.

But there are many ways to write a book. When a book is written - not merely because it is a "good idea" or because "there is a gap in the market" or because the subject matter will "grab the headlines" (and many books are written for these reasons!) nor because "being an author" will bring a sense of achievement - but because the book itself wants to be written, then this book transcends the writer and carries a collective power.

There is a place that you can tap into in the creative process that is beyond small mind or small self. There is a dimension beyond the everyday human intellect that contains all knowledge, all concepts and all information. You could call this Higher Mind, Universal Mind, or the Mind of God. It contains everything that is, everything that was and everything that ever will be. It is timeless and boundless.

By moving into an inner space of Stillness/Silence/Being, you can tap into this place and find the wisdom of Existence. Writing a book from this space requires surfing on the edge of surrender to the universal flow and conscious shaping of the words and sentences. It's a dance between Universal Truth and authentic humanness.

It is this kind of book that most often is a "sign of the times" and carries a universal message which speaks to everyone with an open heart and mind. And it is this kind of book that captures the imagination and spreads like wild-fire across boundaries of age, education and nation. Some examples of this kind of book (non-fiction) are "The Secret", "Conversations with God" and "The Power of Now".

The creative process applies to spiritual writing, story-telling, poetry, music, art and all forms of creative expression. In the end, it is not what we do but how we do it. If we open ourselves wide to receive God's fullness in this moment and if we bring the depth of our full presence into this moment, then every creative act is born from God's Mind and is filled with beauty, grace and the power to heal and make whole. Every creative act born from God's Mind holds a nugget of eternal truth and has the capacity to return us to a state of unity. 

"May we each - in our own unique way - become a clear conduit for God's Creation ... and may all our creations serve to uplift humanity 
and celebrate Life!"

with love and blessings,

I am looking forward to reading your book. I believe that the more present we are, the more silent we become, the more of a conduit we are for God's flowing through us, whether it be in our actions, our words or our song, or what ever our gift may be--The voice of God rings loud and true when we are silent enough to feel it's vast presence. Becoming one with "what is" allows the messages which are all around us to become us. Let the Shift Continue through "What is " as it flows through you, and us all, who acknowledge our capacity to be conduits, and vessels of the divine truth. God Bless you on your continued Journey!
