Sacred Light

This book is intended to be a source of Light and Hope for those who are questioning, or doubting, their faith. This book is simply a tool to help you find your voice, your truth, and your sacred spiritual path in Life. What do you believe to be true that is untouchable, beyond doubt? Investigating your own special, treasured truths is an excellent place to begin your journey of illumination. Research, read, review, and revise those beliefs until you recognize your truth. Integrity, authenticity, and faith in yourself are the finest qualities to embrace because in the end, it is all about living your Life consciously for your own personal growth and expansion. No one else can do this for you. It is a voyage for you alone. What I know for sure is this; it is during our darkest moments that we can become conscious of the precious Light within us. A crisis can be the greatest gift. Let your wounds from life reveal your authentic Self by being a place for your Sacred Light to shine through. Your Life is a miraculous gift. I know that it is possible to live it wholly, abundantly, joyfully, and genuinely. Losing my religion and discovering my faith in myself as a mystical being while wandering along this magical path through Life has convinced me that the greatest Love, purest Peace, and holiest Light must come from within us. Those genuine qualities cannot be truly known from the outside. Love, Peace, and Light must first be known in your very being as the truth of who you are in order to bestow genuine Love, Peace, and Light to others. Be the Light you want to see shining in this world so it can be reflected in every soul you encounter. Brené Brown said, “Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light." This is what I have come to realize from my own incredible journey out of Mormonism, ‘the infinite power of my light’, through embracing and owning my story! Sharing my story is a bona fide labor of love. I am revealing my authentic Self in this work. I am feeling very vulnerable as I expose my entire Life to the public; but also very optimistic, that it will offer hope to someone else who is suffering alone in the darkness, like I was, to know there is a community of compassion out here, they are not alone, and peace can be found outside of religions as well. I have been there, in anguish, in the shadows, feeling alone, feeling like I was the only one going through a crisis of faith. I am here to say, there comes indisputable Light after ‘the dark night of the soul’. With our dark nights, some of the finest gifts emerge. They are truly blessings in disguise. The dark night can help us awaken to the truth of who we really are. If we will let it, our dark nights can help us remember and revive the Sacred Light within us. This is an account of my spiritual and mystical passageway through Life. It is a narrative about faith, purpose, awakening, love, compassion, healing, joy, and miracles. It involves a strict, religious childhood, a special vocation for my life, a ‘dark night of the soul’, and a beautiful ignition of the Sacred Light within my heart which has forever transformed my Life. This book embodies my voyage from ‘Mormon to Mystic’; from living my Life as a faithful L.D.S woman to living my Life as the faithfully, Mystical Goddess that I AM. The truth is we are all ‘God’ in form. “The Source of creation is within you. You can be just a piece of flesh, or you can be the Creator himself”, Sadhguru. This is why we are all so spectacularly powerful! We can all make the choice to consciously co-create our Life with God, or to continue along unconsciously inhabiting this momentary world, living an inauthentic life. This is my Life.., my story.., and my book. It is a collection of my personal opinions, interpretations, experiences, and perspectives on Life. Names and places have not been changed because the most significant reason why I am creating this work is that I want to leave my children my ‘testimony’ of the fact that they can live an authentically, spiritual Life without being a part of any religious institution. This book is in print because of my wonderful kids. This composition was written as if I were having a precious conversation with my cherished children. If you are reading these words consider yourself a definite member of my Soul family. The words, thoughts, concepts, and ideas that fill this book come straight from my heart. This is my authentic life on paper. It is my unique story as I see it. I own it. I claim it. Now, I bless it, and release it, intending that it will come across the paths of those who need to hear its passionate message; which is, we are simply Divine Love energy and Sacred Light energy resembling God, ‘THE ALL’, our marvelous, miraculous Source of Life.
