​
Great is as always a matter of perception and one's perception of "great" when compared to what others, society etc. call great, is where "great" not only diminishes their service in this perception, but diminishes the light within from whom the comparison comes. No one is called to serve the same.

Alexander the Great was Great for what that meant then. Tutored by the most awesome philosophers , his soul path to become King and leader. He was the great example of how people were led  and influenced by the consciousness of the time.
It takes courage to align with what is your mission and bring it about for the benefit of others. No matter what your calling, no matter how you will your spirit, no matter how it looks to others, it serves. . .  someone is always being served no matter what.

Great is what most often has been put in place by the ego and not your own. One is Great because of how many followed him or her, how many people benefited from its service. Or by how many elevate this person above themselves not recognizing their own greatness. Then when they are disappointed finding those they put above themselves as human, they seek to tear them down through their own veil of unworthiness. 

Sometimes  "great" is measured in how softly one walks in the world, and to those who feel this type service is somehow more worthy than that of those who express themselves from the same source in a different way, do no not what it means to serve.
When one who serves as a beacon of a love that inspires growth through truth, it is only considered great by those who have the courage to love their own resistance. 
It takes perhaps more humility to serve God from a larger more dynamic platform because the ego must constantly surrender in the face of resistance in order to do so. The connection to the self must be held strong and able to fair the relentless storms of criticism, comparison, and ignorance projected upon self from others.
Immense compassion is required here because to love all faces from which this darkness is cast, is to understand their pain from the other side of your own, How you love yourself is how you are able to love others.

What makes someone "great" is the amount of light they hold and exude. Their words then carried on the frequency from which they are aligned, goes out and touches everyone in their path.
For most people the vibration of the Christ, unconditional love, is what is most sought after because people have not yet aligned with that source of love within themselves.
They follow and seek external love because they need to feel love they need to feel loved. Even when presented with the tools to nurture this connection, they do not want empowerment, they would rather gather more around themselves who need love and try to be that for each other.

However, when one is aligned with the love within themselves, they seek not love, acceptance or approval from external reality, They have moved beyond the need to be loved, to being the love and a shining example for others.

Live great! Be great and Serve!

"The days of the Guru are gone" came to me years ago , in those exact words. This wisdom came at the beginning of the age of true empowerment which is now upon us. I suppose one must ask   "what makes a guru a guru"?  Or even better who?
Not reading my whole life on any subjects and of spirituality especially and purposefully, I have deduced through the excavation and integration of my souls rich history that WE make the person a guru or not.
I understand in literal terms it means "one who brings another to light", so that could mean your therapist or mother, priest or even Yeshua..
Is a guru defined by clothing? The colour of the clothing? What food they eat or not? If they do yoga? The geographic origin of the body? Economic status?  By how many people choose to sit around them and listen/ learn?  What criteria does one use?  Or is it merely the old structure of dis-empowerment that need be recognized, transmuted and rebuilt as the sovereign self?
Guru in this day and age means dis empowerment depending on YOUR definition of what following ones teachings means.
If you identify the teaching with the person, there can be a trap, a co-dependence instead of a steady stream of appreciation that is reciprical.. One who is aligned with spirit is more powerful than millions who are not. The millions who do not take the time to nurture their own connection fall into these ruts.
Most people still cannot or do not want to hold their own space beyond the church or temple, so they must keep going back wanting the teacher to hold the space for them. THOSE days are gone. A teacher ideally gives you tools that teach you how to feed yourself for life, not feed you for a day. A teacher who can relate to your process has wisdom to impart as you climb the rungs of your soul's destiny.
Throughout time there have been those who were able to access higher consciousness beyond the density of this dimension and dazzle others in the stark contrast of reality. They were followed and gathered around because people felt something in them that they were disconnected from within themselves. It is very easy to remain at peace sequestered  on a mountain top void of all reflection and feel like a holy man. It takes a different kind of spirit to be that love and light among the masses within the human condition. 
Even the days of the middleman are coming to a close. Once one learns to love through the integration of their divided mind and heart, one accepts and sees themselves AS that love and wholeness is realized. Then the middleman or Yeshua must be disregarded as something with another name. You share the same consciousness in your wholeness and in truth.
Guru has a bad connotation because it has been used as a blanket term to describe one who has people or students who "follow" or gather many other like souls.
There are many not so wise who know the power of leading through the weakness of people's minds and need for love and direction. Hilter was one, the Catholic church is another when you consider that in both cases there is extreme control and power over the minds and hearts and no love to be found in the rules.
'Humility is a condition often demanded by humans to diminish the power of another. Humility is a feeling when the heart connection has resonated with the essence of the spirit not the human from which it speaks. Gratitude for the channel goes without question, humility comes in the presence of holiness which is rarely completely embodied in a human and never discovered in the ego ".
-Siobhan Nicolaou
" I am the lord thy God, put no man before me" is one of the ten commandments that was given to Moses. 
To me it means a number of things.
1) No "man" meaning person, wife, husband, church, holy person
2) Anyone who would be a guru worshipping him instead of the spirit within you
3) Any statues or idols
4) All negative thinking, emotions
 All of the above are false Gods, and anything you put between you and your spirit is just that.
Gurus DO serve even in the worst of ways because it is the lessons that go with giving away or misusing power that are being offered in such a setting. 
It is wonderful to align with the umbrella of a good teacher for as long as you are serving your personal development with the teachings, for you are enfolded by the consciousness they derive from a concentrated source. It can be quicker for you, IF they are teaching YOU how to align with YOU and not following some sort of rigid belief system. All antiquated structures on every level  are being destroyed and crumbling. 
The Great Awakening is upon us and the time for change is now.

"Remember man that you are light and to light you shall return"
Rev. Siobhan Nicolaou



The illusion of darkness or evil will continue to manifest until it is loved enough to surrender to the truth of itself.
It will never be enough to re mind an unintegrated mind that what it perceives is not real. 
The point is to re member, or make whole what appears separate by re minding the program of illusion that it is love. One cannot do that reinforcing opposition. Not only the program in the mind must be integrated but the emotions that created the beliefs to begin with. 

Evil does not consciously know the essence of itself - it has intrinsic value it cannot recognize by being told it does not exist. It only recognizes the truth of itself through love.  
Darkness is as much light at the truth of itself as the one who came in shining. Shining eyes can't often relate to what it hasn't experienced or recalled on the path of  its own evolution. 

Divine Compassion not judgement or evaluation is the first step to truly understand the loudest cries for love, but cannot be felt unless one can but for a moment imagine or re member what it feels like at the bottom of the deepest crevasse of separation.

Everything was created in the likeness of god meaning consciousness not form. The form only exists through unintegrated perception of duality which gives it power, free will, and a life of its own using the energy of source contrary to the consciousness of love or its true self.

All perceived evil is Unconsciousness. It is as innocent as a lamb. Ignorance and innocence are synonymous. For when evil is under the influence of love long enough it will succumb like everything else. You do not have to dance with it to love it, just do not oppose it and empower its feelings of unworthiness.

No energy moves in a counter clockwise direction as an opposing force. Energy or consciousness is always moving forward either in separation or wholeness. Look at a spiral in the mirror, counterclockwise is a matter of belief in opposition.


There are no opposites in truth. . .  the essence of Darkness is Light, the essence of Hatred is Love, the essence of Sadness is Joy, the Essence of Black is Gold in this dimension until enough illusion has been integrated to reveal the oneness of spirit at the truth of its being. This supports the consciousness that is rapidly awakening on the planet at this time.


If there were no light within the darkness it could never identify itself and be reborn.
It is the light that remains steadfast within the darkness propelling it forward to the discovery of its true self.
The paths the ego follows and the choices that it makes while in its progression forward appears to be moving in the opposite direction or away from source when in fact it is always moving in the direction of truth. but on an extremely slow and arduous path.


" For most men darkness is the only path to the light"
Rev. Siobhan Nicoalou


Perception

Yin and Yang is a very outdated teaching. . .  balanced in opposition within the whole.  Black and White. When one comes from an integrated consciousness one knows that it operates from the one consciousness that is beyond male/ female, dark and light. The integrated darkness, the integrated gender. 
Not operating from one or the other.
 Most channels today still believe they must bring through that which is already within them from an outside source. You find wholeness within the self.

If you can see only those who walk in the light of service wrapped in white sheets, subdued or wearing orange robes, you will not recognize the light when it shows up wearing black heels and red lipstick. 
A woman who is considered more humble because she wears no color on her face or nails is a false interpretation of the ego. 

Humility is a term often demanded by humans to diminish the power of another. Humility is a feeling felt when the heart connection has resonated with the essence of the spirit not the channel from which it speaks. 
Gratitude for the channel goes without question, humility comes in the presence of holiness which is rarely completely embodied in a human and never discovered in the ego. 


Happy New Year!!!

 Contrast creates pain, pain leads to greater contrast, contrast leads to awareness, awareness leads to awakening, awakening leads to love, love leads to integration, integration leads to conscious awareness, conscious awareness leads to integrity, integrity leads to wholeness, wholeness leads to truth, truth empowers wholeness . .
Wholeness is the language of truth, the way of truth and the being beyond all shadow of illusion and need of love.
One cannot get there by solely changing their mind, channeling or learning the words.  Without transmuting the  ego/ personality within the emotional body, one may be a great knower of truth but unable to experience consciousness completely.

Ego is predictable, it has a vibrational pattern of constructs and conditions easy to decode. Love is unpredictable because it allows without conditions, as all outcomes are possible in love. The expectation of that which is yet uncertain and divine, inspires and opens its trusting hearts in the unfolding of its grace.

"It is not "evil" that propels man forward in its ignorance. It is the light force within the darkness that keeps it moving forward creating larger and larger circumstances for its awakening. Because light is the essence of all things including darkness, there cannot possibly be one thing not engaged in movement toward the realization of this truth.

The heart of God has no barriers, boundaries or need for discernment its love is limitless and extended regardless. Human hearts discern, sifting through piles of perception discriminating, contracting extending conditional love based in fear. 
It is said Yeshua road into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday upon a donkey symbolizing that he came in peace instead of a horse a symbol for war.  .  appropriate interpretation for the level of consciousness of the time, but I say to you now;
"Learn to see the difference in no thing, for it is within your capacity to see beyond the symbology, the colours, the outer appearances even the vibrational interpretation of that you then decide you dislike or like and then give it meaning. Dispel all separation by loving the self and recognize the perfection living within all things. Prepare now for what you will inevitably meet face to face. For it is not about the part of yourself you will discover, but your ability to respond when it looks you in the eye."

Einstein said:
You cannot solve a problem with the same consciousness that created it”
"I say consider this carefully when you meet with something you find yourself quick to oppose. Heal the conflict within your divided self before taking action, and you will find at the end there is no action to take, there is only love".

Money does not create competition or resentment among others. Ones unconscious or conscious struggle to break free from self imposed limitation creates this conflict.
In the throws of this fire those around it will burn, some with compassion, some with fear, some with judgement. Only those who love can stand and observe, stand and support, stand and be whole. 
It is within your wholeness that others are whole. In your division they are condemned.

Yeshua said:
"You see a sliver in your friends eye, but do not see the timber in your own. When you take the timber from your own, then you will see well enough to remove the sliver from your friends".
I say:
"You cannot see the sliver in someone else's eye unless you have seen your own.
I have seen the forest in my own which I cut down to become the timber to which I set fire to become the sliver and in the transmutation of the sliver, I could not only remove the sliver from my brother's eye, but see beyond the sliver to the truth that lies within."
