The Masters' Messenger

Book excerpt: Could there truly be a powerful and transformative presence called the Ascended Master Saint Germain? What about the phenomenon of channeling, or the real possibility of living a life of awakened awareness? Anyone who has contemplated other ways to walk the world will find compelling insight on these questions and many others in The Masters' Messenger: Emergence of an Awakened Channel. Charting the awe-inspiring and wondrous journey of Aruna Byers, this self-termed Awakening Coach reveals how channeling paved the way to self-realization, which in turn transformed her life and her worldview. Merging Western and Eastern spirituality, The Masters' Messenger: Emergence of an Awakened Channel uncovers this fascinating topic in two parts. In the first Byers shares the highlights of her own story from childhood to marriage, how she began channeling Ascended Master Saint Germain, and how he transformed her ordinary life into an extraordinary one as he prepared her to meet Papaji, the final catalyst of her awakening. In the second part, she shares her practical unglossed discoveries about channeling and awakened awareness. At the crux of the book is the author's exploration of the world of channeling in order to either cease being deluded or discover what reality, if any, was behind the mystique. Byers ultimately discovered that channeling can make an important contribution to the human experience and that awakened awareness is the optimum platform for “clear” channeling. Byers takes the reader through a brief description of her early, dysfunctional days with a difficult and demanding mother, and into some of her young married life with college sweetheart and husband, Ron. As she wrestles with gaining a better perspective on her spirituality and her calling, the author slowly immerses herself in a world that draws the criticism of many naysayers around her. However, when Ascended Master Saint Germain presents himself, the author becomes profoundly convinced that her true path is unfolding. Soon, her life is transformed in ways she would never have imagined, and she forges a remarkable new road that culminated in her spiritual awakening. In the summer of 2002, she originated the term Awakening Coach.As readers follow her enthralling tale, the author mines the questions of why channeling happens and why people throughout the world are captivated by messages from beings that do not walk the earth. Refreshingly honest and frequently humorous, her unprecedented foray into an often-debated realm will provide anyone with greater understanding of the significant relationship between channeling and spiritual awakening. A not to be overlooked bonus in this book is the detailed discussion of deepening an awakening—a critically important subject absent in most all literature of this kind. This deeply enriching, eye-opening guide to the consciousness of spiritual awakening is certain to resonate with readers keen to discover whether or not they themselves are truly awake.
