Guide Reading for Brad Jensen

September 11, 1997

Conductor: "Will you allow the guide of Alfred Bradford Jensen, III to speak
through you?"

Reader: "Yes"

Conductor: "Please do so now"

Reader: "I am leaving"

Brad: "Hello!"

Conductor: "Not here yet"

Brad:  "Ok"

Reader: "I am present"

Conductor: "Ok, Brad"

Brad:  "Well, kinda the way I feel, just lay it on me, I'm ready to hear
whatever I can get in the way of advice.

Reader: "It is not so much advice that you need, but clarity of your own vision.
You doubt your own vision, and always have.  You have an extremely clear
conscious.  You have an extremely clear perception if you would stop
doubting it.  It is true that your attention many times is not what is
going on around you.  You are a visionary and your perception usually
precedes where you are, but there is also benefit to that.  For you see,
there are many things that you see and much wisdom that you have that
could control and rule and guide your life if you did not doubt it.  It
does need some work on your part, to be perceptive about what is going
on in your life now.  But, your vision is extremely clear about what is
coming and where you are going, it always has been.  With this clarity
in vision, not only for yourself, but in understanding what other people
need, and what humanity needs.  It gives you the advantage of being able
to use that perception to know what choices that you need to make in
your own spiritual steps in your own life and in your own business.
But, it cannot help you as long as you continue to doubt it.  You have
many ideas that you attribute to brain cramps, you have many ideas and
perceptions that you think are strange or off the wall ideas.  I am
telling you that these thoughts that you discount are not what you think
they are.  They are your perception, they are your vision.  Now, when
your own vision does not make sense to you and when your own thoughts do
not make sense to you, then I'd say look to see how you can interpret
the energy more clearly, not that there is anything wrong with the
perception."

"You do not have animosity to take up your mind, to block your emotions,
even though you have dropped issues in your life that sometimes you
think you have pursued, it has been a much wiser choice to eliminate
animosity from your thoughts.  And this elimination causes your emotions
to be much more clear, which means that they do not get in the way of
your perception except in the case of holy thoughts seeming to be to
fine for everyday use where you doubt that what you are hearing or
seeing is really applicable and practical."

"I know that the intellectual part of you understands what I am saying
and the emotional part of you and the sensitive part of you is a little
lost.  There is really one issue that stands in your way.  That issue is
your own idea of your worth that clouds your vision and that emotionally
causes you to doubt your perceptions and visions."

Brad: "Wow, the thoughts I have about this and thinking and hearing about this
is it's right on target, that, you know, I've had a question of whether
or what should be my focus in developing these thoughts and ideas.  I
always think of them in terms of formulating them and communicating them
to others, I have a responsibility to do that and also that is the best
way for me to develop and understand them myself.  Should I be taking
steps or working to be more of a public figure and developing or
communicating these ideas to writing or teaching?"

Reader: "If you don't discount your visions then you will find that there are
outlets right now in your life that would be very useful.  You would
find also that you would need a bigger audience, the reason being, the
things that you perceive, your visions, are sometimes of your own
personal life and always include you, but many times what you see has to
do with many more people than yourself."

Brad: "Yah, I've been identifying quite a bit lately with St. Paul, and his
efforts to understand the experience of Christ and give that to the
people and I think in some ways he did a very good job and in other ways
there's things that need to be corrected and I'm wondering if this is a
good place to put my attentions in terms of trying to work with the
forms of new thought Christianity and developing a teaching within that
framework and within the unity movement, for example."

Reader: "You will always have perceptions and visions and it is that inner
guidance and inner brilliance that will always determine where you go
and what you teach.  Therefore, once the ideas are there, it is obvious
to you of what people need to be directed toward."

Brad: "It sounds like follow your own guidance which is to tell people to
follow their own guidance, which makes a lot of sense."

Reader: "Not all people have the guidance to follow.  They would if it were not
blocked or if they listened to it, but the reason why people need to
hear the visions of others is because they either want company or they
cannot hear their own.  Most people, even good people, cannot hear their
own guidance so they have to have it from somewhere else until they can
unblock their own.  For truth is truth, whether they hear it first from
within themselves or in the speech of another."

Brad: "Two other thoughts I came into this reading with; one, is about my
desire to work with interlevel experience.  I've had some very strong
and direct experience in the interlevel, but, partly because of my
personal history and family members who are legally crazy and so forth,
it concerns me that if I get into it too much or grab hold of it too
much, that somehow I'll lose my concrete footing in reality and I'd
appreciate any suggestions about working with that."

Reader: "It is only your emotions that you need to fear becoming convoluted.
The more experience and control you have on the innerlevels of
consciousness the greater mental skill you will have in order to control
and guide your emotions."

Brad: "Well, that makes sense.  The other question I've had is a suggestion
that I should be working with an individual teacher or look for someone
to teach me or provide a structure and guidance for myself, whether that
would be beneficial or continue as I am."

Reader: "You could grow with a teacher, but a teacher would find difficulty
teaching when you doubt your own clarity so much.  Removing your doubt
is not something that a teacher can help you with."

Brad: "Yah, as you talk about it, it really comes into focus for me.  Alright,
well, thank you very much, can I have a name to associate you with it
and your vibrations?"

Reader: "There was a time when I was called a Belinda, there was a time when I
was called a Frank and there was a time when I was called Mary.  I have
gone by more than one name.  My vibrations now is a one of strength and
greatness, of which, I appreciate.  I have not given a name to myself
for quite some time and I will allow you to give me a name, one that you
think is befitting".

Brad: "I know exactly what it is, "Granite", so I can take you for granite."
Ha, ha, ha

Reader: "Then so be it".

Brad: "Okay, thank you very much.  Are there any final suggestions or things
that you would like to ask me or bring to my awareness?

Reader: "There are so many joyous things in life, do not become so busy that you
overlook them.  Most of the reasons that they are overlooked is because
you have so much attention on where you are going and not a balance of
attention on where you are now.  Learn to enjoy the present as you are
reaching for the future, don't be dissatisfied with where you are now,
at the same time realizing you will not here for very long.  There have
been sometimes, as you look back on them, you have had some regrets
about not taking time, more time to spend with certain people, not to
taking more time, but to dwell on certain issues.  The present never
lasts for very long, learn to enjoy it while it is here for tomorrow it
is gone and there is a new time and a new experience."

Brad: "Alright, thank you".

Conductor: "Would that lifetime as Mary be the one in the time of Jesus of
Nazareth, in that same time period?"

Reader: "I would not have made those choices."

Conductor: "Which Mary are you referring to, any of them?"

Reader: "Any of them".

Conductor: "Thank you".

Reader: "Do you have other requests of me?"

Brad: "Uh, no".

Reader: "Then we will be at peace for now.  I want you to know that the reason
that I have chosen you is because you have the same inner strength as
I.  You just do not know of its presence, and therefore, you have not
felt its power. I am here to help you find that and do that."

Brad: "I will seek and find that strength."

Reader: "Then may we both be blessed on our paths."

Brad: "Amen".
