Yet if you get this detachment from your own physical body and approach it with newness and [[wonder]] and [[curiosity]], you can get still enough to begin to feel your own [[heart]] beating.

| This is where you derive your strength, by an acceptance, a contact, a feeling of who you are--especially physically, and including [[everything]]. As you put it, you feel more present. This is, in a sense, my daughter, all you can do. You are putting your whole [[heart]], and now your [[soul]] into this staying present and accepting your situation, learning from it, because you have to keep learning as it [[changes]]. You have to keep trying things in a very [[scientific]] way, being of a [[Clarity|clear]] mind of what you are trying, and then whether it works or not in your human [[complexity]] of having a [[body]] and [[mind]] and [[spirit]] and [[personality]] and [[soul]]. It’s a true exploration.

− | Oh!--I do know of John of God! I met a group in the City (Ed: [[San Francisco]]) who had gone to Brazil and his sanctuary, and some were healed, and some got better. So I’m aware of him.
