ISBN: 978-1-625-17357-7 Steps and Flights of Stairs On Earth, everything and everyone grows by taking Steps. And that growth is amplified and underlined by understanding how they work. When we are between Steps, there is maybe an uncomfortable moment in Time reflecting a child teetering about to fall over one unsteady foot circling in mid-air, lapsing into an in-between stage. Feeling vulnerable.
This is normal. We are between an ascent of a Step. We have left one and are reaching for the next. Like a monkey releasing one branch and pulling herself up higher to the next branch where the sweeter fruit is hanging. In life, as we grow, which we constantly are doing, we are diving into an ascent. And sometimes an Initiation, a Spiritual Opening, journey or meditation, Life Itself, or a Blessing brings us up a whole flight of stairs in one sweep.
An ascent can be any size Step or a whole flight of stairs. So there can be a strange feeling of uncertainty and increased vulnerability before a Step is taken. Before we land on a plateau where we might rest and catch our Spiritual breath, you could say. Everyone and Everything has a specific staircase Eternal in nature. What do I mean? They seemingly go on forever. Endless levels of Steps and resting plateaus; all leading towards Spiritual Enlightenment.
One after the other, these Steps softly come to be under our feet, giving us a space, a new identity, a wider view, and a way to rekindle the memory and truth of who we are. Some Steps are hard to climb, others easier. And with some we begin to remember the design of The Architect of Everything. Remembering could be thought of as becoming a member in the land of Destiny, with memory of our Purpose, our Beginning, our own Soul and deeper aspects of Spirit, the whole Journey and its Hidden Plan, and the untellable magnificence of remembering The Infinite Immensity. The First Creator. I look at these individual staircases as dropping down or having been built up from what I call The Beyond.
A Reality where Everyone and Everything comes from and will return to. Within the grand design of staircases for each something, they appear, in my imagination, as spirals and not straight shots upward. They wind around the choices we take and the ones we may have made billions of years ago. And they intertwine with the different multi-dimensional levels of the Realities of Reality that a something, or a someone, finds themselves living out an existence on or in. Maybe the winding staircases of just one life have a bend around a planet or around a solar system, galaxy and universe that the Souls various bodies maneuver through. Then there would be the flights of Stairs much higher up, in the rarefied air of The Beyond, where perhaps Steps are taken in a fashion I cannot fathom in writing this.
Each person has their individual Staircase of Steps. Unending until The Game of Games is complete. Before perhaps a new layout of Steps or something different is formulated. In my vision, each individual something person, angel, tree or blade of grass has their own Staircase to move through and into their unique and personal Spiritual Enlightenment. Each has their own Initiations taken at each multi-dimensional backdrop of Steps, or resting space between blocks of Steps. Maybe there is a planetary Staircase and a Universal Staircase that wind around each other.
Or maybe it is but one enormous, gigantic, unfathomable set of Stairs everyone climbs together, but at their own pace and in their own manner. It feels like a blade of grass and a solar system would have something different underneath to Step upon. I did an impossible thing. Changed Staircases when the body changed from being one Spiritual being into being another. One Soul exited and one Soul entered this body. I like to say, one took her leave and one took her welcome.
And the one who exited only had a seed of the secret, placed before her many years before. My Soul was brought into this host body and placed on different Steps, perhaps with differing heights and widths. Who knows but The Architect who built them? The body changed Staircases to one that reached higher and further back. She has a different Soul and Spirit, Sunspark and Sunstar. In this case, there is a Group Soul. Maybe the Steps are taken in different directions, with a golden thread between the Group.
Going up each successive Staircase maybe could be seen as being more, or less illuminated and more, or less physical, relative to the threads. But maybe it is not like that. I am waiting for the full design to be revealed. Trying to accept the un-knowing nature of this process. Getting closer to relaxing within and trusting Divine Timing. All I know for sure is that I took a big Step and I am still taking Steps.
We all are. And that there will be a time for a period of Time, when there is no Time, when the Steps are all melted and merged. The Architect will be known. We will rest in The One. All in One. Before something different comes tumbling out..in the shape of what will come.
And then there will be other kinds of things, like Steps, that lead other forms of us into our Enlightenment. Because Enlightenment is the net of it all. Forward or Backward Probably the former host of this bodys first understanding of steps was as a child with her sisters, playing a game called Mother, May I? It must have been some version of the childs game of Simon Says, whereby the player is allowed to take a big step forward if they can remember to ask the question. I wasnt in that body at that time. And I dont recall where those steps were leading to or if there was a point at which someone actually won the game by taking steps. But I do know that it was considered a good thing to be able to remember the words and take the subsequent step.
All through the life of this bodys first host, Wistancia Stone, she was involved in taking steps. Everyone is. And she became aware of taking spiritual steps in order to grow when she was in her twenties. There were many early steps, of course, but when she was pregnant with her baby girl, she realized that she wanted to wake up, spiritually. That was her main characteristic: that she would do anything to awaken herself so she could know what life was about, what it was for, where it came from and where it was headed. She began consciously taking steps when unborn Grace was inside her, growing as a baby girl.
That is when she began to meditate and read more directly spiritual books. Within her was an ache to wake up. It was a thirst that nothing else quenched. And it led her through the years to try many different things. And then to jump off each step when a new one appear. Eventually she took a really big step and that led to me, Ariiah, entering the body with my consciousness.
When she took that one, I dont think she had any remembrance or knowledge that she was opening the door to leave the Earth, as a Soul, herself. But she took that series of steps and left, and that was when I entered this body, in February 2009. Everyone is always taking steps. In the Beginning everything was in what could be called The Beyond. And from that place there were steps that were taken down into what later would be the different Creations with all of their worlds and universes, galaxies and planets. Beings took steps from an environment of Oneness and clearly went into a pattern of separation in order to live in a multidimensional way, in many places at the same time, with the Soul spread out into different bodies.
The levels required a certain forgetfulness of the original setting, in order to play the Game. So steps led everyone into separation and multidimensional lives in different realities, lived at various levels of awareness, remembrance, or enlightenment. Now everyone and everything are involved in taking the steps back into where everyone and everything came from. This was when I chose to come into play. Everything is moving in steps that I call back to the Beginning. But they wont be as they were before.
