06 The Brain Of An Angel

The concept of ‘angels’ is common. But what are angels? Are they merely enlightened human beings? Do they live here or somewhere else? Do they participate in human activity or merely bless it?

‘Angels’ is a series of meditations on the different facets of an angelic being. Conceived in the deep silence of a mountaintop ashram in northern India, these enable the speaker to express her concept of how angels work, what they do, what they look like, and what makes them as they are. This is conducted by Anthea Church.

The brain of an angel.

An angel's brain is a machine whose work stretches way beyond the body that it lives in.

For as many branches as there are on a tree,

There are parts to a brain.

And as many parts as there are to the brain,

There are parts of the world to sustain.

An angel's brain sustains.

The brain of a human being just looks after the body.

It is shaped by what the soul has felt over and over through life upon life.

And the messages it sends come out of those feelings and make the body act accordingly.

But the brain of an angel looks after everybody.

It no longer works for itself alone.

The messages needed to make the legs walk go onwards and outwards to make someone else walk in the right direction.

The messages needed to make the lips speak go out too to someone else's words and fill them with the value that they'd forgotten they had.

A human brain is dead without a soul to move it.

Even if in its compacted oldness the brain doesn't directly do the soul's bidding.

But the brain of an angel is itself alive with energy.

It is automatic and independent.

And because it's free of the ups and downs of the past,

It can do a lot and run on little.

An angel's soul flies forward to create the future.

Whilst its brain sends out help to that which is old and tired.

The brain's connections are with those whose depth may be great but whose strength is little.

For their intellect is working through the accumulated physical weakness of many births.

An angel's brain removes that weakness.

So that the hidden beauty in a person can express itself again.

Joy is the quality that makes the brain angelic.

Joy can penetrate matter and change its quality totally.

So that it becomes light and lovely and easy to work through.

And joy comes from tasting the subtle beauty of the future.

Very personally and privately feeling your own destiny.

This is the gift that the soul once sweetened can give to the brain.

And once that gift is given,

The soul is free to look to the future and the brain to heal the past.

Not just a personal future but a family future.

And not just a personal past but the whole family's past.

An angel works for the family.
