Summary

The narrative describes a personal journey of discovering inner strength and light through surrender and guidance from a maternal figure, symbolized as "The Mother."

Abstract

The author recounts their experience of finding a "golden key" they believed would unlock the metaphorical "Secret Garden" within. Despite knowing where this garden was, they struggled to access it, realizing the key was not theirs to wield. This understanding led them to seek out "The Mother," to whom they relinquished the key and their will. The Mother then activated the key from behind the author's heart, causing a profound awakening. This awakening involved the merging of three funnels of light—from the Earth, within the author, and from above—creating a harmonious balance and a steady force of love. The Mother returned the key to the author, entrusting them with the knowledge to remain open-hearted and act as a channel for universal light, even in times of vulnerability.

The Secret Garden Of The Heart

Unlocking The Force Within

I realized I had unconsciously taken something — something that was not mine for the taking.

I had found a golden key and thought it belonged to me.

I wrapped a willful hand around this golden answer while searching for The Secret Garden within.

I knew the location, but not how to get in.

No matter how I tried, contorted, or efforted — I was dismayed over and over again.

That is until I grasped, that the key was not mine.

It belonged to The Mother.

So to her, I voyaged, and held out my hand, relinquishing both key and will.

I confessed my unknowing and surrendered with my whole being.

She looked into my eyes with a gentle and pardoning smile.

Then gestured for me to turn around…

A warm and radiant hand touched y back.

I felt the golden key slide in, right behind my heart.

Two sliding steel doors opened, and with it my heart.

White light burst out from within!

I became wholly illuminated!

The source and solution that had resided at the center of the heart became liberated!

Light began to form a funnel, above and below.

Below, the Earth’s light erupted upwards, forming a second funnel that merged and attached to the light inside me.

Above, a third funnel of light poured down with magnificent magnetism, coalescing all three.

Three funnels united; light raptured at each intersection along the spine; below, above, and every point in between; radiating brightly.

Balance, Harmony, a Steady Force of Love, Omnipresent.

The Mother tenderly guided me to turn back around, to face her again.

She handed me the golden key with a resplendent smile.

With her mind, she showed,

It is yours to hold and remember.

When the heart wants to close, when you feel vulnerable or frightened, recall this opening and the funnels of white universal light.

You, and every being, are channels for the light.

Don’t give your key to anyone, don’t let your heart be locked.
