This is a story about a friend and co-creator. It is also a story of the potential of all.
Mark Reese is a simple man, gentle, kind and loving. He is a man of great compassion and clarity. He is a healer and counselor to those around him. He laughs and loves easily. He creates his life with joy and passion. He is dedicated to his purpose in a quiet, unassuming way. He holds his own truth that he demonstrates with strength and clarity.
In the summer of 1996, Mark experienced an opening of the Heart that has changed his life and lives of many around him. Many had begun to gather for the purpose of healing Earth Mother and exploring the inner stirrings of their hearts.
Mark was gathered with several others for the purpose of facilitating a meditation to heal Earth Mother. He had no conscious awareness of what was to take place. He was surrendered in the moment to the intention of the meditation. In Spirit, and still on an unconscious level, he had agreed to be the vessel for communication with higher Spirit. On a conscious level, his focused presence allowed Spirit to introduce itself. In the middle of the meditation, "Eyes of the Sparrow" spoke to the group, "Come inside and sit beside the Fire, the Fire of Creation." And so began another chapter in the journey.
"Eyes of the Sparrow" had walked the earth plane over 200 years a go as a Sioux shaman. At that time, he held the Christed energy. Today, at this time of universal ascension, as mother Earth transforms and births herself, Eyes has returned to assist with this process. He is here to teach tools for ascension, to guide us to our connection of GOD in our heart, to integrate LOVE throughout all aspects of our being and to release the fears and blockages held throughout our evolution as Spirit. He is a direct voice of GOD, of the Highest Essence of each, an emissary to guide all to Harmony within and co-creation with GOD.
Initially, Mark did not believe those who told him of this entity that had come to speak to them. He slowly absorbed the impact of what had occurred. Rather than resist, he embraced this new path before him. From that moment, Mark dedicated himself to being a clear conduit of GOD's Unconditional LOVE and a vessel for communication with other dimensions. Mark embraced that he was a deep trance channel.
At first, many around him were both curious and cynical. The wisdom that was disseminated took several years to find integration within the group consciousness.
Many layers of fear, judgment and limitation were stimulated, brought to the surface and the vision of a world living in Harmony and LOVE was awakened in the Hearts of all.
At every channeling session, "Eyes of the Sparrow" stated his intention and encouraged all to do the same. His intention was simple and direct and has not changed in all the years of communication we have shared together. It has always been "Eye's" intention "to speak to the Heart so that truth may resonate throughout complete beingness".
As a channel, Mark was guided to other dimensions when he was out of his body. His highest expression of Spirit integrated universal truths; his dedication and trust allowed him to bring this information through the physical. The more he cleared fear, the clearer a channel he became and the clearer the vibration of the information became. The demonstration reverberated outward, the ripples of his enlightenment cleared an even greater path for GOD's Unconditional LOVE and Wisdom to guide all who sat in his and "Eyes's" presence.
Since that night in a small trailer in the country, Mark has embraced many physical, emotional and spiritual challenges. Throughout this time, Mark has called on his inner knowingness and Trust, always affirming the power of LOVE.
Within months of first opening his heart to channeling, another spontaneous event occurred. Guided by Spirit, Mark produced a tape of basic tools and meditation. The studio was a conference room at a local business. The equipment a hodge podge. The result ~ a testament to the power of GOD's LOVE that requires only allowance, trust, and dedication to take right action from the Heart.
"Darkness To Light ~ Fear To LOVE" , Mark's first CD, has guided 100's into their hearts to connect to their truth and provides simple tools to embrace, release and transmute Darkness held within all aspects of our being and cellular memory. The mediation side of the CD is an ever-expanding journey of healing, of integrating Light ~ of conscious connection to GOD and our Divinity. Many who have shared this journey with Mark have since come to realize that this recording, as all the other recordings that followed, is encoded to speak to the Heart so that individual truth may resonate, allowing each to peel the personal onion of his or her spiritual enfoldment.
Over the next year and half, five other recordings followed, each encoded with the same truth, wisdom and energy of Unconditional LOVE. Each offers a different perspective on the Universal Laws and tools.
With the raising of the group consciousness and greater understanding of the individual and collective vision, new level of healing emerged.
Sound and vibration, present on all the recordings, took on new meaning. A new series of recordings were created ~ recordings that focused on sound, tone, vibration and rhythm and that connected to Divine Mind and the Oneness.
Synchronisticly, by taking a class offered by another member of the group, Mark opened yet another aspect of his creative spiritual expression! Art. "Pastels from the Heart" inspired him to buy his own creative tools. He played, he created and his tapes and CDs featured his inspirational art on the covers. And so, Mark continued his personal journey of Spiritual expansion. Creative Spirit was consciously embraced and given encouragement to unfold and bring personal joy and fulfillment while providing inspiration and enlightenment to others.
The demonstration of GOD's wisdom and Unconditional LOVE was expressed through the physical with word, sound and art.
Mark Reese is the demonstration of the Joy that is expressed from within and that radiates outward for all to experience. His music, art and meditations stimulate the yearnings, the gifts within that call to be expressed and shared.
Together, "Eyes of the Sparrow" and Mark work to bring the highest and purest intent of the universe into manifestation: LOVE and Harmony.
We are all asked to be channels. We are all asked to channel our own Spiritual energy, the GOD presence within. This is our awakening, our own opening and surrender to our inner knowingness. It takes many forms. As we let go of the fears and old belief systems that have perpetuated these fears, the passion of our dreams and heart's desires can guide us to personal fulfillment and Unity with all.
The journey is and always has been to connect to our Hearts, to integrate LOVE (Light) throughout our four bodies and to be the demonstration of Unconditional LOVE ~ to Live LOVE in every moment.
We are divine abundant, blissful beings of GOD. We are the hands and feet that have come here to BE, to create Joy, to inspire, and to guide others. We have come to remember who we are.
We are Unconditional LOVE.
My gentle brothers, Mark and "Eyes of the Sparrow" provide the mirror, the demonstration, and the inspiration. The manifestation of their collaboration has provided perspectives and tools for the journey.
There are many mirrors before us. Look and you will see the reflections of your Heart.
