FAQ - Ask David ?s Here

DO I NEED TO ASK FOR PROTECTION ?
You may if you feel like it, but I do not believe it is necessary. Jesus said "Resist not evil". What does that mean ? Within the context of this healing work, everything you experience is there for a reason. It is said, there are no accidents, meaning, all that is brought to you in life, is overseen and directed and allowed by the Higher power - which is made up of your own God Self, the Spiritual Hierarchy, and Source. To elaborate, everything you experience in these sessions (and in life), no matter if you perceive of them to be "Good" or "Bad", "Negative" or "Positive, are things your Soul has signed on for before coming here to this planet. You may do all in your power to resist these things from coming in, for a time, but whenever you sense resistance, there is judgement, and this judgement has caused separation of the Shadow in the first place.
Everyone who is engaged in this work is agreeing to confront these resistances and work on what is "unaccepted" (the shadow) as part of the souls"God Contract". It is ones (ego) resistances that are holding you back from fulfilling your life purpose - and through this and my other work, we help move you through some of these resistances (and in this setting, we work on those resistances that pertain to the Collective Shadow). It is these feelings of resistances that you are trying to "Protect" (thats a no no). Once we all get the work finished, then we all can have a Big Party... but now its time to roll up our sleeves and get dirty. Thats what we are here for.
Anyway, everything that happens in these sessions is all according to the Divine Plan, which is your plan too. Do not be afraid. You are always protected from that which you cannot handle, and you are allowed to experience that which you are ready for... and will make you stronger.

WHAT OR WHO IS BEING HEALED ?
My understanding is that the Mass Archetypal Consciousness, the Oversouls, the Collective Hive Mind, the Global Energy Field... all this (and maybe more) is being worked on. As you do the work, and if you are clear enough in your own space, you may come to know this information for yourself. Ultimately, you will have to take all this on faith.
This work is not about healing your individual personal karmas and issues... that may happen as a side effect, but the focus of this energy is more expansive and all encompassing.... On the other hand, the other work I do through my spiritportal.org website is focused on the individual. In that situation, Spirit takes that same attention and care it has dealing with the collective issues, and re-focuses it on you !
If Spirit can heal the global consciousness, it can definitely heal you (but again, that is not the direct focus of these sessions).

IS THERE SOME EVIDENCE THAT WHAT I/WE ARE DOING IS AFFECTING MY/OUR ENVIRONMENT ?
We are dealing with the invisible energetic realities here, and this is nearly impossible to tell for sure what specifically is being done or affected. As I mentioned before, you will just have to take all this on faith and your personal subjective experience and cognition

WHY AM I FEELING ALL THESE SENSATIONS IN MY BODY, LIKE HEADACHES, JERKING MOTIONS, ANGER, ETC.... ?
To some extent, the energies unleashed in these sessions may be moving through you (processing your stuff).
If you are getting headaches, it could mean that the energy is stirring up and releasing physical chemical toxins from your body. In that case, its always a good idea to drink plenty of water - as well, exercise and eat pure foods.
If you body is jerking during the sessions, this is the energy is probably moving through your energy meridians (its nothing to be worried about - just flow with it like you would a wave).
If you are feeling anger, or sadness, or some other emotion, same thing - the work is stirring things up inside your emotional body.
These are all good signs actually - it means that in a direct or indirect way, you personally are getting some beneficial healing/clearing.
These symptoms may also have nothing to do with you but are ways you process the collective karma, and in that, it is still a good thing - the collective karma is your karma too. All one and the same (like the air we breath is shared by one and all).

WHY WOULD DIFFERENT PEOPLE EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING IN A SESSION ?
If people have a common focus, tuning into a particular intention, their vibrations/frequency will match eachother and they will have a similar experience. Its like turning the dial on a radio... if everyone tunes into the same channel, they will hear the same sounds.

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY HEALING SESSIONS ?
In each group session, we are doing very different work than that which was done in the previous session. It's the same when doing healing work on an individual person - no two sessions are alike.... So too, when working on the Collective Shadow and Planetary Soul, we will be focusing the Spiritual Powers onto very different areas and levels... and there is sooo much that needs to be done. We could all get together every day of the week and never do the same thing twice... which makes these healing groups veeery interesting (to say the least). The point is, the more we gather, the more we can heal ... and the deeper the energy work will be. So come once or every time... each session will be unique.

WHAT IF I DONT FEEL ANYTHING IN THE SESSION?
The first thing, you have to make sure you Registered and RSVP'd for the session you wanted to participate in.

If you still did not feel anything, there could be any number of factors at work.
Sometimes its just a matter of timing and playing the numbers game... that if you continue to participate and keep rsvp'ing, and keep on sitting in on the session. something may come - it just hasnt done so yet for you, and thats ok.

But after a number of sessions and you still dont feel anything, you may be subconsciously blocking yourself from engaging in the work (called "self sabotage").

On the other hand, your Higher Soul Self may be blocking you from being engaged in this kind of work because on some level or another, you are not ready, willing or able to fuly engage in it. It may be that your soul energy is not able to focus on this global work right now because you are dealing with some personal unresolved issue. In that case, i suggest you do the individual healing sessions with me to help move you through these personal blockages. If one has not made peace with ones self, it is hard to be present to be of service to the collective (or to anything else for that matter). One cannot serve two masters at a time. Heal your Personal Soul, and then you can be more present to help heal the Planetary Soul.

Hi David. You said that

"if you sit for half that amount, thats fine too. it just means that for about 2 hours, your energy and spirit will be (more or less) engaged in the global work. by you simply rsvp'ing, you are a part of the work. by sitting down for it, you are allowing yourself to be more aware what is going on. if you have to get up and do other things, that is ok... but just know that for about 2 hours, you are invested in the process..... maybe not the best time to do other things that may energetically conflict".

Can you give me examples of what would energetically conflict, like watching tv, or eating, are those good examples? Thanks.

it might not be a good idea to drive or anything else for that matter... that you need to be fully aware of or present for. otherwise i leave it up to your discretion to decide what you feel is of conflict. (big SMILE to you Noni)

Hi David~

I posted on the "share" board about my fear somewhat of being able to handle this work if it becomes more regular. I just read though that I should be fine not to worry. The intensity of this work sometimes is alot to absorb and have been glad to have the breaks of time in between. call me crazy, but it's hard not to have a fear like that when you can feel literally your body processing things. I don't want to repeat anything that I put on the post so I wont lol! I was going to ask if I was strong enough to deal with its intensity but one of Davids posts talks about it so sorry for wasting space!
Namnaste'

HOW DO I PARTICIPATE REMOTELY ?
Once you RSVP for the event you wish to participate in, your Soul Energy is going to be a part of that work. However, if you wish to be more attentive and aware of it, at the designated time of the session, simply close your eyes, sit quietly, and feel. After the session, come back to this site and write of your experiences in the message boards. Thats it.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SESSION ?
That really depends on what your soul has chosen to work on and process. Sometimes the session will end at precisely the given time, OR it may seem like it is going on for a while. Each person also processes the work differently. Some fast, some slow. And part of this depends on how clear you are in your own personal space. If you have a lot of unresolved issues, this may very well clog up, slow down, and impede your processing. The clearer your own personal space is, the easier and faster your processing, and also, the more spiritual energy work you will be given. The benefit of that is that the more you are given, the larger and more powerful your Soul becomes. Great Souls are not born, but they are made in the adversity of such trials and challenges.

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO FEEL IN THESE SESSIONS ?
If you read what others have written, you will see that from person to person and session to session, experiences vary. There is no definitive thing you are to feel or not feel here - its all good. Even if you dont feel anything, that too is good, and perhaps, in the next session, or the next... this will change. To have feelings, sensations or some other experience during the sessions is a lovely confirmation for your human self that something happened, but the highest faculty of your Spirit is that of "Clairsentience" or "Knowing". And from this level of being, no matter what you do or do not personally experience, all you need know is that to the extent that your body heart and soul is ready, able and willing, your spiritual energy is contributing towards healing the collective. Quite possibly, you might not feel anything while you do this work, but it is not what you feel that is the important thing here, but that you are willing to be of service to the Great Spirit, the Higher Power, God, Jesus, Buddha, Allah, Gaia, the Goddesses, the Angels, whoever.... By signing on to do this work, you have affirmed your willingness to be in alignment with the Divine Plan... ie. "Not my will but thy will be done".

WHO DOES THE WORK ?
It is the "Higher Power" or "Spiritual Hierarchy" that I am connected to and work with (composed of MANY Ascended Masters, Angels, as well as Divine Source itself) that oversees this entire healing process. In addition to these my own spiritual sources, your Soul is added to this collective effort... and like an orchestra - our individual souls are thus directed by the Higher Power in ways that serve this task.

WHAT DO I DO DURING THE SESSION ?
Please sit down quietly, close your eyes, be aware and simply feel. It is that easy (there is
nothing else you need do). If you must go about some other business during that time, thats OK. Just know that your Soul Energy (or as much of it is available) is being put to use during that time. Whether you are consciously aware of anything that happens is besides the point - its your willingness that counts here, not your awareness of your involvement. But if you do take the time and effort to focus or "tune" into the work, you may become more aware of what is being done on the inner planes (all of which can be pretty interesting).

WHAT IS THE SHADOW ?
The Collective Shadow is a "matrix like" construct made up of thoughts and energies, that separates our consciousness from the reality, light and love of True Source - our Creator. If you have seen "The Matrix" (a movie I highly recommend), you may notice some parallels to it and this concept we use here of "The Shadow" (but these are merely concepts we use to communicate from one mind to another - the real thing may be something else entirely). Countless souls (including you and I) have spend eons of time and energy in an ongoing effort to build this "False God" (the Shadow), and over time, our creation has birthed a life and consciousness all its own. This work our group is doing, is designed to break up this Matrix, and free all these souls who have cast and bound themselves into this illusory net.

WHAT IS THE HEALING METHOD YOU USE ?
Many people say that if we simply focus our attentions elsewhere or have "positive" thoughts, that is enough... and yes, maybe for the individual, having positive thoughts is a good way to handle life and will keep your attitude up in most circumstances, but who can maintain such a focus 24 hours a day, 7 days a week against the onslaught of the material reality and the collective consciousness ? And no matter how much we try to avoid it (the collective consciousness), like an errant child it is always in the background vying for our attentions. And when our guard is down... when our consciousness has shifted focus and dropped onto a denser material reality, then this collective consciousness (the "Shadow") may come in and compel us to act or feel in ways we have no control over.

This particular healing work approaches this problem from a whole other level than engaging in any particular technique, especially ones that are directed and controled by the mind. Mind techniques may work for the individual (up to a point), but when one is working on such a massive scale as the Collective Consciousness, one must call upon a whole other level of support, one that transcends the limitations of the mind. No matter what you call it, I am speaking essentially of the Holy Spirit, The Higher Power, The Spiritual Hierarchy, True Source, God. This is who is doing the work here. It is not the person known to you as David, not his mind, his personality, nor his body. Granted, those aspects take part in and are in harmony with this work, but thats not whose running this show - its all the Higher Power. And when working with the Higher Power, our limited self must be open and receptive and not try to control anything.
You may have noticed that when I instruct participants to simply sit down, close their eyes, be attentive and feel... I mean just that - you do nothing else than that. You don't hold an intention, or think positive thoughts, or recite mantras, or do breathing practices, or anything (unless your inner guides you to do so - then follow your truth). But here, when working with the Higher Power, our human self has no idea ... and our only task here is to make ourselves available to be open conduits or channels for that which is greater than ourself, to take over. This "technique" then (if you could call it that) is all about SURRENDERING your agenda and will and idea over to this Higher Power. That is what we are practicing here in this work. You might think that is an easy thing to do, yet even at the higher levels of our individual Soul Self, we carry issues about "surrendering" our little will over to the Divine Will. This is a major reason why we have created the collective shadow in the first place - as is an escape mechanism for those who do not want to be in alignment with the Divine WIll, but would rather want to go their own way, in opposition to God.
So if I could tell you in the simplest terms the healing method used here, it is this:
"NOT MY WILL BUT THY WILL BE DONE". That is the essence of THE PATH OF SURRENDER. And when you can fully surrender unto a thing, you become that thing. There is no difference between your small personal will and the Divine Will. This is what we are practicing here.

WHO IS THIS GROUP WORK FOR AND WHAT IS ITS INTENDED PURPOSE OR GOAL ?
Everyone - no matter what your belief system or spiritual accomplishment - is encouraged to join this Meetup Group (all brave hearts and open minds are especially welcome). And especially if you are a soul who wants to make a significant difference in the world, this is the group for you.

This particular healing work is not about providing or promising you with your next great spiritual experience or "Spiritual Fix". What we are doing here is much more than that - it is about being of Service to the Planet, and to Spirit... and in so doing, our Soul finds true Meaning and fulfills its Purpose in being, and "that" is more precious than gold. Some experiences may or may not come to you as a result of this work, but it is not, I repeat not the focus here (but such experiences are still very interesting, just the same).
So the bottom like here is that you are engaging in this work in order to make a difference in the world.

WHY DO I NEED TO REGISTER OR RSVP ?
If you want to participate in any of the healing events, YOU MUST REGISTER ONLINE and RSVP for each separate Sunday session (event listings may be found in the Meetup Calendar).
Again, RSVP's are REQUIRED !!!
Spirit (and I) need to know if you are serious about being a part of this work. For this reason, we require you to affirm your conscsious commitment by saying "YES" or "NO". In other words, there is no "fence sitting" here - you are either "IN" or you are "OUT". For this reason, "Maybe" RSVPs will not be accepted.
Once you filled out your RSVP form, then and only then shall we include you in that particular Sundays healing process.

HOW DO I START MY OWN SATELLITE GROUP ?
If you want to form your own local "Healing the Collective Shadow... Reclaiming our Planetary Soul" group so that you and your friends can - in the physical - feel the energy and share your experiences, all you need do is decide how long and what time (on Sunday) your group will meet, and then RSVP that information - including an estimated number of guests attending - in the meetup web site. At the given time and day, my Spirit helpers will connect up with your Souls, and will facilitate, include or "link you up" into the global session.

HOW LONG ARE SESSIONS ?
Spirit has set aside every Sunday in order to be available to process you into this work. Which means, you may participate in the work for as little as 20 minutes.. on up to 2 hours or longer if you wish (that is your choice).
Also, whatever time you wish to do the work is perfectly fine with Spirit, be it at such odd times as 3:30 AM, 5:20 AM, 10:09 AM, 1:05 PM, 5:35 PM or 7:47 PM (its all good). The only thing we ask is that you inform us when you wish to "Begin" and "End". In the "Please add a comment" section of the RSVP form, write the specific beginning and ending times - IN YOUR TIME ZONE - you wish to participate in the work. This will indicate to Spirit (and to me) when to include you in the healing. Hopefully, we can synchronize with your time preferences, but if we are not exactly on your schedule, I am sure there is a "Divine Reason". Just flow with it and see what happens.

WHAT IF I DO MORE WORK THAN I CAN HANDLE. IS THAT SAFE ?
No matter how how much energy "service work" you sign up for, Spirit will never give you more to do than you are ready, willing, and able to process. So if you are feeling overly ambitious and sign up for more work than Spirit knows you are capable of, they will only include you in as much of the work as you can handle - no more, no less (this is a safety measure installed for your benefit). However, because of the great need for this work, Spirit may test your limits and stretch you to your max. So be prudent here - Spirit will give you what you ask for... but Spirit will never hurt you nor work counter to your Souls agreements and contracts. If you have a particularly intense session, Spirit is simply accelerating you through your God Contracts, which for many of you, is to be a part of this work.

Your remote session should last as long as you indicated in the RSVP form, but depending upon any number of factors, you may be processing the energy for some time after. If this is happening for you, do not fear - all is in Divine Order. You are always safe, protected - it's all perfect and you are OK. And if that days session is particularly intense for you, simply try to relax... let go... and let God. Just know that everything is in Divine hands, and remember, in time, all things change - the energy will shift, and everything will be A-OK.

WHAT DO I DO AFTER THE SESSION ?
Please return to this Meetup Web Site and add your comments and or share your thoughts, feelings, images, sensations,... in the Message Board (share n read of experiences). you may find that many of your experiences overlap or interconnect with another's experience.

WHY DOES SPIRIT NEED OUR HELP TO HEAL THIS SHADOW ? ISNT THAT WHAT SPIRIT IS SUPPOSED TO DO ?
In one way, level, and degree, many Spirits are working to heal the planet. However, when our physical selves are engaged in that process, the results become more grounded and connected into the physical dimension (the Planet and our human selves are physical entities.. and so the healing energies must be physically grounded). In other words, on the human level, when we are engaged in the healing work "in the flesh" (in the body ) not just in the mind, there is an extra dimension added to the work, and Sprits efforts are more complete.

Healing is a co-creative venture between us and the universe. Spirit needs our help to ground the energies, just like we need Spirits help to uplift ours. If we wish to be healed and uplifted in our personal lives, we must make the effort to heal and uplift the whole, for we are all connected - and everything is a part of everything else.

OUR COMMON DESTINY
We have finally reached a point where we as individuals cannot run from nor escape the fate shared by the whole. We are all starting to realize that we are living on one world, and share a common destiny of that world. What happens to one person - no matter if that person lives on the other side of the planet - will in some way shape or form affect our small lives. Throw a rock into a lake, even a small rock, and the ripples will go out to all ends of the shore. For good or ill, what a single person does (especially if it be a spiritual energetic act), can affect the whole. So to this end, as we gather to heal the darkness within the collective mind (this "shadow"), we can create a very strong and positive ripple in the lake of life.

WHY NOT DO THIS HEALING WORK EVERY DAY - INSTEAD OF ONCE A WEEK ?

Even though I know I can handle this amount of energy work, my spirit has decided to simply focus on Global Ascension matters in one intensive day a week (Sunday). If you are interested in doing more of this kind of global healing work, there are other groups in the world that are holding that focus and space on those other days (look around and you will find them). i can of course, connect someone into this planetary work any time, but personally, my soul is only responsible for facilitating and processing it on Sundays. Besides, if everyone really is present for it, once a week is more than enough to dedicate to this work (doing it all the time, I feel, is not balanced, at least for me - I am personally busy with other matters throughout the rest of the week).
The main thing one should be concerned with here in doing this work, is QUALITY of participation, not quantity. To improve the quality of your souls engagement and availability, you will need to get more healing work done on your own self, and that will open up your capacity to be of greater service to spirit than you are now.

I HAVE MORE PERSONAL ISSUES I WANT TO HAVE ADDRESSED AND HEALED. WILL THIS GROUP WORK HELP ME ?
If you are interested in personalized individualized healing, then may I recommend you visit my other web site:SPIRIT PORTAL. The energies and consciousness that are more broadly focused within these "Collective" group healing sessions, is narrowly focused upon your personal needs as an "Individualized" soul. Quite often, in order to better serve the whole, one must focus on healing the self first. If you find or feel that your service to the whole is limited by your own personal issues blocking the way, then personal individualized healing sessions may be in order (ask in your heart if this is something you would benefit from). Personal healing is offered, in case you need or want it (but there is a fee).

IS THIS HEALING WORK FREE ? CAN I MAKE A FINANCIAL DONATION ?
This collective healing event is offered free of charge. However, if you feel so inspired, donations are gratefully accepted (but are not at all expected).
DONATE HERE.
But the best ways to way to support this work is to tell your friends, start satellite healing groups, and for sure, participate in as many sessions as you can.
And lest I forget, the clearer you are in your own Soul, the more you can be available and be of service to the whole. To this end, I also suggest you receive personal individualized healing sessions with me. Go to my web site at SPIRIT PORTAL.ORG for more information (by the way, this personal individualized work is not free).

CAN I PARTICIPATE IN THE HEALING IN THE HOURS WHEN I AM ASLEEP, OR IS IT BETTER TO BE AWAKE WHEN DOING THIS WORK ?
I honestly am not sure. This is something you will have to experiment with.
If you do the work during your sleep, I suppose it may affect your dreams, or the energy may wake you up. And if you do the work when you are awake, you may be more conscious of what is going on.... but everyone is different. Some people are more attuned and open to receiving messages from their subconscious in "dream time" vs "day time". You will have to see for yourself. But all in all, I dont think one choice is "better" than the other - its all about what you feel you want to do - its your choice, your "preference". Follow your own guidance here.
