What Is Heaven on Earth?
Mother Earth (Gaia) through Pepper Lewis - June 2001

Dear Mother Earth:

Can we experience Heaven on Earth? Can you? If so, what can you share with us about Heaven on Earth that would be helpful for us to know? For instance, is it a future possibility, or can we experience it right now? What is your definition of Heaven on Earth? What can we do (or cease doing) that will hasten our experience of it? Is Heaven on Earth the ultimate destiny, or is there more beyond it? Please answer on as many levels as possible--physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social, 3D, 4D, 5D, etc.

A.A., Mt. Shasta, CA


Perhaps the ultimate question is this: Is Heaven on Earth real or is it only an expression created long ago by others who like yourselves, were also seekers of that which exists beyond ordinary moments? Historically speaking, it has been difficult for most people to agree on a definition of what Heaven is, much less come to a collective agreement as to whether or not it can be experienced upon Earth. Why is that?

The most commonly accepted definition of Heaven is that it is the dwelling place of God and the Angels. If that is so, what is the location of this place and how does one get there? Heaven is further understood to be a holy place of many blessings; a kingdom in which one can dwell forever once certain criteria have been met. It has also been suggested that the Heavenly realms can only be accessed or attained by those who have accomplished deeds of both matter and spirit, or by those who have been born into a specific religion, belief, or understanding. Some have described Heaven as the indwelling place of the spirit, that which houses and accommodates God within self-realized beings. But what of those including myself, who do not fit into the aforementioned categories?

Heaven is a state of being. It is an expression of oneness that exists beyond time and space. It is both form and formless and it encompasses all that is within and all that is without. Heaven is your natural state of being, therefore any other state of being is unnatural. But if Heaven encompasses the form and the formless and all that is within and without, how can any state of being be unnatural? Therein lies the paradox and the difficulty in defining Heaven. A definition, in and of itself is an attempt to limit or separate a concept from all others in order to better understand it. One cannot define or limit Heaven any more than one can do so with GOD, do you see? Both are limitless expressions of being, they exist as pure love and cannot be separated from it. Can it be that God and Heaven are synonymous? I will leave it to you to draw your own conclusions or to remain limitless by choosing not to draw a conclusion.

You are already an expression of Heaven and Earth, but you are only aware of that on certain levels of your multi-dimensional awareness. That is because your choice to densify light in order to experience yourselves as physical human beings limits your ability to experience yourself as Heaven on Earth. This is not a requirement of physical expression, only the current choice human collective consciousness has made. If it was not an experiential possibility, the expression, Heaven on Earth, would not exist in your vocabulary. Anything that can be expressed as one form, can be experienced as another. That is one of the laws or truths of this universe. If you can say it or write it, you can live it, create it, build it, grow it or give it away. Everything exists as pure potential. You convert that potential into desire, then possibility, and ultimately expression. That is why sayings and affirmations are so important. You must understand the power of the spoken word, your spoken word, in creating your reality. As you continue to explore that power, you will learn how to create your version of a perfect reality. The discovery of this perfect reality is what you will experience as physical Heaven, or Heaven on Earth.

Long ago you before you individualized yourself from Source you knew that you were Heaven, and you were. At some point you decided to experience yourself as an individualized aspect of Source called Heaven, and you did. Later on you thought to experience yourself as a physical point of light, separate and unique from all others yet still Heaven, and it was. After a time you discovered that you could also experience yourself as a physical human being possessing all of the aspects of Heaven but standing apart from them, and this you also did. Your creativity was boundless. Eventually you decided to embody only some of the attributes of Heaven, hiding others here and there where later on you would delight in discovering them as if for the first time. As time passed you became better and better at playing this game until you could not quite remember where all of the heavenly aspects of your self were hidden. You had divided and subdivided them until they became particles of light scattered upon and within all of the dimensions of this universe. You set upon a journey to gather them all together so that you could once again experience wholeness. You have traveled this universe and been to many places, almost all of them. Your journey has now brought you here, to the Earth where you know the remaining pieces are. They are hidden in plain sight and within all living things because that is where you put them. Now you have only to gather the few remaining aspects of Heaven, and you are. Lastly you must remember that you and Source are the same, and you will. This is one of the reasons that the expression, Heaven on Earth, has always been a part of your collective awareness. It has existed as part of your oldest records and within in all cultures and all languages . . . so that you will remember.

I, as the collective consciousness of the Earth also experience what you call Heaven on Earth and each kingdom of the earth has its own experience as well. Each dimension within each kingdom has its own unique understanding or expression as does each density within the dimensional experience of time and place. The physical earth does not yet understand itself to be a complete expression of Heaven on Earth because its experience is closely tied your own. As humanity comes closer to embracing this experience so will the physical earth. This will manifest as a resurgence in health and vitality within all expressions upon the physical plane. Heaven is after all a perfect state of being, therefore perfect physical health would be an apparent consequence.

How will humanity come to know this when it still believes that Heaven exists outside of itself? The experience known as self realization will assist the manifestation of physicalized Heaven on Earth by mirroring the grander aspects of its multi-dimensional self to the physical self. Once the already thin veils that separate these realities dissolve completely, your world will become one which mirrors only these truths. At present the world around you still mirrors what you have decided is your collective reality. As this collective reality continues to expand, so will your frequency. Frequency is a combination of light and sound and as this increases it shatters or pierces the denser realities in favor of the lighter ones. One of these lighter realities can be called Heaven on Earth, but it is important to remember that it is only one reality and there are many more.

Heaven on Earth is not the ultimate destiny, not for you or for me. The ultimate reality in this universe is no reality, or all realities. This is simply another name for Source. Is that it, then? No! There are other universes and other sources of experience that you would term God. Source or God also wishes grander and more wonderful experiences. Do you really believe that this is All There Is? Is this the best our Creator can do? No, dear ones, no. There is more, much more. Truly it is the journey and not the destination because even the destination is a temporary stopping point on an even grander journey. Source/All That Is/Creator is presently participating in the awakening/quickening process within all realities in this universe, not because this is the only game in town, but because there are so many other games to be played and experiences to be had. It is important that you understand this concept because it will quicken your own progress and that of others as well.

Those who appear to lag behind or cause others to play the hurry up and wait game have only forgotten that there are more games to be played, they believe this is the only one. The truths that confirm and even describe the new games waiting to be played have been temporarily removed from this reality by those who have been very successful at this game. "Why play another game when this one is working out so well," they say. "Let's stay and play another round". The realization that Heaven on Earth exists upon all planes of reality is your confirmation that you have indeed completed this experience and are ready to move beyond it. This is the signal you have been waiting for.

If Heaven on Earth cannot be defined perhaps it can be interpreted. You live your life as an interpretation of Heaven on Earth. You have come from what is commonly considered the heavenly realms to Earth to express your self as deemed appropriate by your soul's free will. Free will is a gift which allows you to make yourself as comfortable as possible here on Earth. One of the ways you do this is to bring as much of Heaven (that which is limitless) with you as you can, and to blend that with your Earth experience (that which appears to be limited).

Heaven on Earth is an experiential possibility for all, a potential probability for some, and a spiritual certainty for a few. Which category do you fall in? Here are a few questions to ask yourself that will help you to determine that. Are you fully present in your day to day reality or do you spend more time drifting off into another reality? Are you actively working to align yourself with your environment or are you biding your time while waiting for others to catch up? Have you found yourself feeling at one with beings from kingdoms other than the human one, or do you still believe yourself to be separate from these? Have you embraced your role in this lifetime even if it has not yet manifested or been completely defined, or are you still looking for the next ticket of out here?

The amount of Heaven on Earth you experience is directly related to the room you make in your life for that experience to manifest. If you only make a small bit of room for it, you will experience it as concept; a doctrine or a possibility. If you believe it makes sense on some level, then you have invited it to share your reality, but only to the extent that your mind will allow. It exists as a probability which the mind will reevaluate upon introduction of factual evidence. If you are finding small signs of Heaven on Earth in your everyday experience, then you have welcomed it into your heart, you have given it a dwelling place where you can nurture it and help it to grow. You have allowed it to manifest in 3D and are now ready to empower it further so it will in turn empower you.

Does Heaven on Earth also exist in 4D and 5D? Yes, and beyond that as well. At the fourth dimensional level it is experienced as a paradigm shift. It is a paradox, one that can be experienced but not witnessed, expressed but not explained. This is the level of expanding thought. It is thought expressed beyond the level of the human mind. Going beyond the human mind requires access to the cosmic or God mind. A clear link to your cosmic mind already exists as a neural pathway within your brain. It has been little used until now but will soon be understood. 4D is Heaven on Earth expressed as global consciousness. It is the key that accesses the unified field of pure potential. Heaven on Earth exists as pure potential in 4D because in 4D it is expressed as whole thought. Possibilities are polarized thought -- they may or may not be possible, they may or may not come to pass. Whole thought simply IS. IT exists. Regardless of whether it is given form or remains formless it still exists. A perfect example of this would be the purpose or missions that you have come to experience upon Earth. They exist in 4D as whole expressions of truth. Many of you are meant to manifest your purpose in 5D, but you have been looking for them to manifest or simply show up in your 3D world. This will not happen unless you force it. If you force the experience you will find it unfulfilling. You will wonder, "Is that all there is? Is this all I have come to do or say?" Allow yourself the gift of expanding into and realizing the beauty of the fourth dimensional world. It is much more than just a gateway to the fifth as some have offered. What good is a new paradigm or a new world to play in if you cannot understand its language or its customs?

When whole thought becomes infused with creativity it is able to manifest in 5D. The fifth dimension is polarity neutral. Polarity exists at this level as a whole choice, one that the collective consciousness of humanity must choose. This choice involves more than a simple majority as in your voting process. The fourth dimensional world allows you to experience a choice or a consequence as a whole concept. That means that you will play out the thought as it relates to every other living point of light from dimensions one through three. This 4D vantage point can render some of your 3D experiences obsolete, do you see?

The fifth dimension makes Heaven on Earth available to all because all are embraced as whole beings regardless of their appearance or status upon 3D Earth. Judgment is abandoned in favor of Unity, Wholeness and Oneness. Only something that is less than whole can be judged as inadequate or lacking. You are already well on your way to whole concept living. Even the most reticent among you is already aware that all must be supported if even a few are to survive. You will not find proof that supports this concept or idea presently on 3D Earth, you will have to take it on faith. When you make your conscious stand within 5D you will have all of the proof you require, which will by then be obsolete.

What is the experience of Heaven on Earth like beyond 5D? It is more grand; more effulgent. Group mind and group soul choices are typically found to be more interesting than individual ones. Service to others rather than self service is the norm simply because it is a more joyful experience. Love as both a concept and an experience exists as an expanded reality because there is a greater reality to include. Finer vibrations, frequencies and light emanations make nuances of expression subtly delightful as compared to the grosser expressions of light of the lower dimensions. These are only a few examples, there are many more.

After all has been said, done and explained, Heaven on Earth is simply a choice; an awareness. In small or grand scale it is available to you right now. Whether you seek to embrace it as a personal experience or a global one is also your choice. My choice today is the same one I have always made. It is to experience Heaven on Earth on all levels, all realities, all planes of existence, all kingdoms, within and without, in the past present and future, with you and with your future generations, physically or otherwise, with consciousness and sentience, within all dimensions and densities, and with each individual and collective heart that I become aware of. Have I missed anyone?

Until our next talk causes our paths to meet, I remain the ground beneath your feet, the air that you breathe and the heart that beats with yours.
