statements, they would provide his theology classes with rich material for serious debate and
discussion for many terms to come. At the time, though, I didn’t need any letters from theol-
ogy professors to know that what I’d heard was very special—and came from a very special
source.


I began to experience that source as God. Nothing has changed my mind about it since. In
fact, the information which came through in the rest of the eight-hundred-page dialogue—in-
cluding the extraordinary information about life among Highly Evolved Beings in the Universe
in book 3, and the outline for building a new society on Planet Earth in book 2—has only
made me more convinced than ever.


I’m very glad to hear that. And it’s interesting that you should point to this portion of our
dialogue, because this was also the section where I last talked about knowing God.


It was there that I said, “In order to truly know God, you have to be out of your mind.”


Come to Me, I said, along the path of your heart, not through a journey of your mind. You will
never find Me in your mind.


In other words, you can’t really know Me if you think about Me too much. That’s because your
thoughts contain nothing more than your previous ideas about God. Yet the reality of Me will
not be found in your previous ideas, but in your present moment experience.


Think of it this way: your mind holds the past, your body holds the present, your soul holds
the future.


Put another way, the mind analyses and remembers, the body experiences and feels, the
soul observes and knows.


If you want to access what you remember about God, look to your mind. If you want to
access what you feel about God, look to your body. If you want to access what you know
about God, look to your soul.


I’m confused. I thought that feelings were the language of the soul.


They are. Yet your soul talks through your body, which gives you a here-and-now experience
of your truth. If you want to know your truth on any subject, look to your feelings. Checking in
with your body is the fastest way of doing this.


I see. I call that giving it the “Tummy Test.” There’s an old saying, “The tummy knows.”


And it’s true. Your stomach actually provides you with a very good barometer. So if you want
to get in touch with what your soul knows about the future—including the possibilities
surrounding your future experience of God, listen to your body—listen to what your body is
telling you right now.


Your soul knows everything—past, present, and future. It knows Who You Are, and Who You
Seek to Be. It knows Me, intimately, because it is the part of Me that is closest to you.


Oh, wow, I like that. “The soul is the part of God that is closest to you.” What a great
statement!
