Lindell Warden - The Metaphysical Art Theater Disk 1 Part 2a

Well, reality claims to be all things to all. Yes, one power, one mind, one body, one spirit, and everything that you're operating, you're in control of, even if you're seemingly out of control. Look, it's all possibilities, but it stays potential until you enter in and begin to think from. When you move in and begin to think from, and begin to think from, that this world is your world of experiencing. Your mind is never going to question you as to what your self‑talk is, because your self‑talk is the model that the subconscious builds your world upon. Yes. Yes, this is about addressing your world of experiencing. So, what you did, all in imagination, which no one can see but you, which is the only one who really needs to see, because your world is coming through you. It isn’t coming to you. Yes, it’s being expressed in your world, and then everyone will see it, and hopefully it’s a lovely and good report, because that’s what we’re told—to think only on things that are lovely and good report. And we’re also told that the drama man is good and very good, but if that’s not what you’re experiencing—see, no, I’m not here to make judgment about anything. This is not judgment; this is about information, this is about you discerning what you’re hearing by the hearing of the ear. This is about you contemplating and meditating.9007 ¶1

Oh, yeah, of course, I have opinions. Yes, I have many opinions. But this is not the place for my opinions. No, no, this is not about me, the man. I thought I made that very clear.9007 ¶2

These messages came through me. They didn’t come from me. Messages came through me. They didn’t come from me.9007 ¶3

No, no, this is not like you and I having dinner together, no, talking over whatever we would be talking about. But it’s that simple. You tell me about something you’re doing, I’ll tell you about something I’m doing. That’s not what this is. This is about a message that you left for yourself. It is the same message for every child born of woman. It’s your message, and, yeah, it’s there for everyone to find eventually, and everyone will in some time slot. You can’t lose. No one can take it away from you. But for a time you can go through without recognizing it.9007 ¶4

Well, it’s about awakening. And we’re all in the act of awakening in varying degrees of intensity and intent. But how much are you paying attention? Because what has your attention has your life.9007 ¶5

That’s the story. If you want a place to start, I mean, it’s really very simple. I can stand up here and make all sorts of statements about what has happened, things that I’ve told you. I could make it more entertaining, I suppose, but that’s not what I’m here for—I’m not here to entertain you. This is information. Information you left for yourself that you may not have yet recognized to live better. Oh, I know how long I went without recognizing what was actually right with me all along, but I didn’t have a clue as to what was going on. Yeah. Oh, my sense of world, yes. Yes. But I didn’t think of anything beyond that—natural man‑mind reasoning. Yes. What else is there? See, that’s what these talks are about. The talk is to acquaint you with you. You have a valid say, as valid a say as anyone in this world, and you needn’t be coerced in any way, in any state, to think anything, to feel anything you don’t want to feel. That is, unless you choose to do so. Choose this day. That is the message. This day.9007 ¶6

You can give yourself away. You can sell yourself cheaply. And we all do in varying degrees of intensity and intent at times, I assure you. All you have to do is ask yourself, “What do I intend to do from this moment forward, and how serious am I about doing it? Move in, think from better than the best, and reiterate, reiterate—our suggestion nightly, because that is the way you wind up changing your life, your lifestyle, changing your mind, changing your world. It is a given, already a given, and it’s suggested that you do so. Feel after Him, and you’ll find Him. And that Him you’re feeling after is you. See what it is that you’re feeling, thinking, feeling about, because that will be your world of experiencing, good or otherwise.9007 ¶7

So our suggestion nightly is just listen often. Thank you. And good evening. Yes. Oh, here. Thank you. I’ll take that. Yes. Yes. Good evening. Welcome to the Metaphysical Art Theater. My name is Lyndall, and tonight I thought that I could convince others of what I had experienced first‑person, but you just can’t do that because it is a first‑person present‑tense experiencing.9007 ¶8

You believe it or you don’t believe it. And if you believe it, then you’ll test it. And if you test it, then you’ll know that you know it first‑person.9007 ¶9

Then it will no longer be just hearsay. Attitude awareness and imaginational control is just for that better control—control of your imagination. Look, if you’re seeing the Bible as secular history, you see that’s man, the drama, the play, rather than divine history, which is the God‑man, the man who is God. That’s what Jesus told us all. When you see me, the man, you see the Father. And did He not tell you that He was a man just as you, flesh and blood? Don’t kid yourself. You could be in a very large crowd and have no communication going on at all because no one would really be relaxed enough to allow themselves to be vulnerable enough, even for moments at a time, to receive the better ideas, the better attitudes, attitude awareness, and imaginational control. That’s what it’s all about. In you, always right where you are, always available. You’re never being put on hold. Think about it.9007 ¶10

You turn to me, I’ll turn to you, God says. That’s already a done deal. You’re already given permission, authority, and on God’s side of the authority it’s already a done deal because He’s already agreed.9007 ¶11

Yes. Completed? Yes.9007 ¶12

But what you’re being told is, “Arouse thyself, O Lord, why sleepest thou? The Lord in you. You’re told to be awakening to the gifts that are already given—to dream the dream. All of this is a virtual reality of a dream. And you say, “Well, that sounds insane. Yes, I understand it does when you first hear this. To those who are unaware, to the natural man‑mind reasoning, yes, it would seem insane.9007 ¶13

But that’s what Scripture has been saying for thousands of years. That’s what the wise have been saying down through the centuries for thousands of years: as within, so without.9007 ¶14

It’s all attitude. Oh, you hear it. Some agree, some disagree. Disagree? Are we not told it’s like 30, 60, 90 awakening? Yes, it’s about you, you going within. It is about your willingness to do so. It is about your feeling after. If you’re not feeling after, you’re not going to find. It’s that simple. And you’re told that if you will feel after, you shall find. And what are you looking for? Some people get angry with me when I ask the question that way.9007 ¶15

I fooled myself for many, many years—wanted this, wanted that. It really wasn’t that at all. That was merely a disguise, something I thought I had to do, or maybe just a band‑aid on a serious wound.9007 ¶16

It really wasn’t doing anything beneficial in my personal attitudes about generally everything. If it doesn’t seem to be working too well, then we’re just not paying attention. We’re not being focused. We should be. We’re told that the drama man is good and very good. If you’re not experiencing that, then we’re just not paying attention, operating from wrong attitudes. I know about that first‑person; I can assure you. I fought against the whole idea of having to change, even though I agreed that the changes would be beneficial. It would be logical.9007 ¶17

Yes, it’s just ego—Man’s ego wanting to run the show. Any time ego thinks you’re going to start thinking about something more than natural man‑mind reasoning, the ongoing drama, it will jump up and down and cause all kinds of ruckus in your life to change your mind back. If you’re not getting the message, it’s an easy mark for him. If you are getting the message, then ego will fear losing control, and to him that’s unacceptable.9007 ¶18

His aim is to run the show. He’s been fed and nurtured so long by your giving, by your energy. It’s about sharing an attitude that you have a valid say. You’re about saying your valid say. You’re the ones given to choose, and whatsoever is what we were given to choose from as a potential.9007 ¶19

No, no, this is not about guilt trips or any nonsense like that. This is not thinking about punishment. Why would anyone consider that the God they worship, the God they believe created all things, the God represented as absolute love, who loves absolutely, would need to punish anyone for anything?9007 ¶20

At some point you’ll understand—I’m right here with you, here now. God is telling you, Jesus is telling you, “I and my Father are one,” even as you and I are one, right here, right now. This is so. If you don’t agree with this, then you’re just denying yourself.9007 ¶21

You want to take your chances? That’s allowed too. Your chances, that’s allowed too. Whatever also includes you being foolish if you desire to do so. You’re not being denied anything. What you’re being told is, “Go for the better, always for the better; feel after Him, and you’ll find Him, you doing, being the better.9007 ¶22

What about the prodigal son? He was out blowing his inheritance and wound up sleeping and eating with the pigs. Get up and go home. Go home to your father. Even a slave in your father’s house would be much better off than here eating with the pigs. You would be fed and cared for. As he was on his way home with the idea that if he could just get a place to eat and sleep, how wonderful that would be, his father ran out toward him with a robe and a ring and threw a great party for him.9007 ¶23

That’s really the story. “My son has come home. You have turned to me; I’ll turn to you. That’s God’s promise—right here, right now. No, we’re not talking about something that happened two thousand years ago. This is divine history, talking about our everydayness. Someone will say, “Well, you don’t understand. Actually, yes, I do, to a greater degree than I ever have before. Not because I figured anything out, but I know because of the simple act I ask. I was told to ask; believing is receiving.9007 ¶24

For years I didn’t know why I didn’t. I had no real justification not to. I was waiting and I don’t even know what I was waiting for. I was looking for— I didn’t even know what I was looking for. I really didn’t know what I wanted.9007 ¶25

Do you? I’m laying this on the line because I want you to understand that everybody goes through this in varying degrees of intensity and intent. Whatever excuse you claim not to come forward in your own behalf, to stand and see the victory, to know first‑person—if you have an excuse, you’ll use it. You have to lay it down. You have to let it go. Let go and let God. However justified you feel you can defend it, let it go. If it’s not serving you, let it go. That’s what we’re told—let go and let God.9007 ¶26

And you say, “Well, that sounds kind of strange. Why is that strange? Oh, you’re trying to explain to me you can’t change what you believe? What nonsense. I mean, really, think about it. You really believe that you can’t.9007 ¶27
