That which wasn’t supposed to happen

– A personal story from a lightworker in the middle of a cosmic drama
 
Part 2: When it happened

How can this be the will of the Divine!? / The cosmic dance of soulmates / The crucial message of grounding / How do you replace someone irreplaceable?

 

~ How can this be the will of the Divine!? ~

When Maria left her life here on Earth, she also left me her soulmate and three beloved children, who I now take care of by myself. During the period of her disease, I suffered from fatigue syndrome, but managed to get through it. 

 

Since my spiritual awakening 20 years ago I have lived according to the motto that everything that happens has a divine purpose. One of my favorite quotes from Maria’s channeling was “Everything is just the way it’s supposed to be, and everything will be just exactly the way it’s supposed to be”(Divine Consciousness). But I had never had my trust tested in this brutal way before. I was not at all prepared for this, despite all the negative messages from the doctors. I prayed for a miracle all the way to the end. Somehow it would turn, because it could not end like this! HOW could it be that our soulmate relationship, our mutual parenting, and our important mission on Earth would end like this!?

 

It felt like we were still just in the startup phase when it came to our common mission on Earth. I’ve realized that our guides were not allowed to tell us how the drama would end, for understandable reasons. They just repeated that we should have faith that everything would be as it was meant to be. Throughout the years, our guides have spoken to us about our great cosmic mission here on Earth, the importance of our unification as soulmates (which was not yet completed), and our important role in the transition to the New Spiritual Age and the building of the New World. Maria’s passing felt completely and utterly inconceivable, and in many ways it still does.

Image from the ceremony where we spread Marias ashes in the sea

We in the immediate family spread Maria’s ashes in the sea in the same place as Emil’s, to the tunes of two songs with very beautiful and touching lyrics, which I intuitively feel contain messages from Maria. The songs are in Swedish and the titles can be translated to ”A Moment on Earth” and ”Never stop Walking”. The first song was a favorite of Maria. The second one came out just weeks before she passed, and when she heard it, she was deeply touched and started to cry. I think she felt that it, on some level, was about her own fate. Here are some of the lyrics from the two songs, translated into English: 

 

Laleh –  ”A Moment on Earth”

”I saw how we were stars / Who landed in the sea / When we took the first steps / From the Ocean / It hit me that time / When we waded through the water / I lay down on the ground / And thanked the sky / That we got to go ashore / That we got to feel the sand / […]  I won over the mountains / I parted the sea / I was the strongest out of us / But the weakest of us, still […] I was close, I was there / A moment on earth / A moment on earth / Yes, I was there / How wonderful wasn’t it? / A moment on earth” 

 

Sonja Alden – ”Never Stop Walking”

”In one moment, life can turn / In the same moment, everything can be over / And when it happened, that which wasn’t supposed to happen / And nothing can ever be like before / The sky falls, and the dreams die / And the path that you followed is gone / My dear, never stop walking / Dare to trust / That it will lead all the way / My dear, it may take a while / Before the light shines through / Before it leads all the way there / Oh my dear, take one step at a time / For now

 

After Maria’s passing, I didn’t feel ready to tell the members of the Mother Earth Network in public, because I could not understand WHY, and HOW it could be possible. Nor was I prepared to answer questions or carry other people’s confusion and grief. I could barely carry my own. After all, many had Maria as their spiritual guide and hope for the future, and told us how her channelings, private sessions and healing techniques had changed their lives, and given them the strength to focus on their spiritual development and take inner reality seriously. All of you who have written comments and emails with appreciation to Maria should know that she read every single one, and that it meant so much her. It made her so happy to receive so much love and appreciation for her hard work. Just like she touched you to tears, you also touched her to tears.

 

Here are some examples of comments from our readers:

 

“I can’t even begin to describe how much joy and hope for the future I felt from reading the channeling. Without a doubt the best I have read. Filled with beautiful visions, truths, guidance and messages. Thank you so much for the fantastic reading!!”

 

“Thank you dearest Manne and Maria! I cried rivers when I saw the video with Maria’s channeling! =) But I probably got the biggest shock when Maria tells about when she wakes up and sees the bright spots in her ceiling. I experienced the exactly same thing last year and spirits came to me and told me it was time now! It was magical to listen to Maria! ♥ Light and love to you ♥ ”

 

”My daughter came in when I watched the video of Maria’s channeling, and exclaimed: ’Ooooh mom I get shivers all through my body, who is she??’ FANTASTIC ♥”

 

“I love this particular channeled info… I felt very emotional while reading it!!! & I have been doing the grounding meditation ever since! It’s really helping, just a few days ago I literally felt like I would ‘fly’ out of my body! I’ve never felt this feeling before & it was a little scary! But I believe now that I had just become extremely ‘ungrounded’. So thank you & Maria for your beautiful service to humanity. Big (((Hugs))) all the way from Montreal Canada!!!”

 

”First I felt that I couldn’t stand reading another channeling online ‘blah blah blah 5D 7D Sunflares here we goo … Upgrade this upgrade that’. But instead, this wonderful true clear channeling came through finally, I read and read again… It’s just the truth. So thank you for sharing us through your divinely clear channel … Loads of hugs and light❤❤

 

”♥ When I read this, it feels like it’s boiling under my feet. I feel like I’m being grounded and connected to Mother Earth, just by reading this message. Thank you for your work ♥

 

“I’m following the Mother Earth Network from Curaçao, an island in the Caribbean. Only a few weeks ago I got the advice to connect more with Earth’s inner core and that same day I found your website ’by coincidence’.  🙂  You are helping me so much with the meditations and channeled messages you post. Just wanted you to know I’m very grateful.”

 

“The tears flowed when I felt the love and truth of this message. Have not felt God’s love so strongly in a long time. ♥”

”Tonight I ’googled around’ to find what I was looking for. I set out with an open mind, but with a firm belief that I would get help finding what I was looking for, and found you. I have now realized what my mission here on earth is. I’m deeply moved and grateful to be part of this community for Mother Earth.”

 

“This is another remarkable channeled message from Maria and Manne. This channeling rings with authenticity and sincerity, as in fact do all messages from them. The information given is clear and convincing, without seeming manipulative in any way. I regard these channeled messages among the most important available to the human race at this very important time.”

 

~ The cosmic dance of soulmates ~

One thing I have come to understand is that Maria’s tragic passing was planned even before Maria and I came down to incarnate on Earth, it was part of our soul contracts. I have asked the guides about this a hundred times and always get a clear YES as answer (I have found a way to get clear YES or NO answers through energy waves in my stomach). I have also understood that this is part of mine and Maria’s final unification as soul mates, where we are being dramatically torn apart one last time to build up the energy attraction so that we can finally achieve the final union in a huge cosmic orgasm. ”Soulmate” is not just a romantic expression, but it means that you are two parts of the same original soul. 

 

I recently found a written private channeling from my first year with Maria, where the Divine Consciousness says that Maria and I have been waiting for the equivalent of 30 billion (!!!) years for this final unification since our souls were separated from the Divine and divided into two parts, and that we since then have lived in countless different relationships through countless different lifetimes. Even though the numbers are way too large to grasp, I intuitively feel the truth in this. The recognition, love and longing for the final unification with Maria is completely overwhelming and total.  It took me a while to understand who she was, though. The first period of getting to know Maria, I only saw her as a friend, even though I felt that I belonged together with her.

 But one day when I looked her deep in the eyes, I saw the whole Infinity with spinning solar systems and galaxies through her eyes, and I felt deep inside of me: “But… It is MY MARIA! It is MY MARIA!” It was my Higher Self that helped me awaken memories from the depth of my soul. It was like a force that took me over and without being prepared for it myself, I kissed her for the first time, there and then. 

This does not mean that we always had an easy and harmonious relationship. Quite the contrary, we had very big challenges in our relationship, which soulmate couples often have at the end of their journey towards unification, since all the karma standing between them surfaces to be cleansed. But one thing never changed. We belonged together. Once we were brought together, we couldn’t live without each other. 

When I lost Maria, I immediately decided to live the rest of my life dedicated to my love for her. She is my soulmate and forever the only woman for me. Once you have found your soulmate, there is no one in the whole world who can replace her. And why would I even want to replace her? She was actually not gone. She had just changed shape and moved to a higher dimension. I constantly feel her presence and receive messages and love from her every day. We meet and unite in the higher dimensions. We are both completely ecstatic in our longing for the final unification of our souls that we are still standing before. If I’m gonna live to be a 100 years, and I have to live separated from Maria for 60 more years to complete a soul journey of 30 billion years, I will happily do so! So now we are in a kind of ”distance relationship” across the dimensional borders. I wake up, live, and fall asleep with Maria by my side, every day.

Excerpt about soulmates from Maria’s channeling of her Higher Self, August 29th, 2014:

 

“Once, a long time ago, in another time – according to your perception of time – you were separated [The Higher Self speaks to everyone here, since this goes for all humans]. You were divided into two parts. Your soul was split into a male and a female entity, and you began to incarnate separately in different places in our Universe. This was a very, very painful experience for you. This is the biggest, heaviest trauma that you carry, from when you were separated from yourselves and were divided into two units. This is the basic trauma that forms the foundation for all the other traumas that you carry. If you search long enough and carefully enough, you will find it at the very core. We see that you are searching. You’re searching for your other half. You have never ever stopped searching. That’s what all the beautiful love songs on Earth are about. It’s about unifying with your other half and finally becoming whole again, to finally achieve unity again. You long to feel whole. […]

 

Humanity and the Earth are moving into a higher state of consciousness. Your entire Universe is moving into a higher state of consciousness. It’s a unification of the female and the male energy – in the Universe, on Earth and in the human – that is about to happen. It means that we are entering a time where the human is getting ready to finally unite with their other half, since that is a prerequisite in order to reach enlightenment. Enlightenment is the higher state which means that you are completely connected to the Divine Source, and that the connection is never broken again. It’s a condition in which you live your life in limitless, unconditional love, truth and harmony. 

 

Your other half is not your “twin”, as many believe. Your other half is the part of yourself that you are missing. Your soulmate is literally the other part of your soul. Your soulmate does not have to be of the opposite sex. When I speak of female and male energy I do not speak about the physical genders, but I’m talking about two different types of energy. One part is dominated by the female energy, and the other part is dominated by the male energy. You have all experienced lifetimes in which you have lived as women, and where you have lived as men, so it has nothing to do with physical gender. It has to do with the main energy that you carry within you [The male energy (yang) represents “light”, expansion, spirit, high frequency, intellect, activity and sky. The female energy (yin) represents “darkness”, regression, matter, low frequency, mediumship, presence in the moment, and Earth].

 

Soulmates don’t need to be like each other. They do not need to match each other in terms of appearance, and they do not need to match each other in terms of age. They can live in different parts of the globe. They can be very different from each other. What distinguishes a soulmate couple is that they belong together. They fit together like the hand in the glove. But many soulmate couples can experience very big challenges with each other. It does not necessarily have to work from the first moment. Many couples can experience a lot of pain, suffering and challenges in their relationships with each other. It’s because there is so much karma and blockages between soulmate couples, which means that it can be difficult to reach one another in the beginning. This is nothing unusual.

 

But a soulmate couple feels a constant pull towards each other, which they eventually won’t be able to resist, no matter the obstacles. When you are ready to meet and begin the unification process, it will happen, whenever it may be, in this lifetime or in the next. The unification with your soulmate is a prerequisite to reach an enlightened state. It’s a very long journey and a lot of hard work is required in order to achieve it. Everything that happens in your life, in the small and in the large, are different steps on the way for you to finally become ready to meet your soulmate, to complete your journey towards a higher state of consciousness, and to become one with your Higher Self. But in order for you to become ready to meet your soulmate and begin the unification process, you need to work in a focused way with your interior, so that you reach such a high energy level that you will be ready to enter this crucial and final phase in the development of your consciousness”.

I have been guided to several beautiful songs about soulmate love. “Past lives” (Kesha) poetically describes how the couple seeks, finds, and loses each other over and over again in Infinity; “See, millenniums ago, Love / We were nothing more than stardust / Just the galaxy beneath us / You found me / Then we made it through the Ice Age / But I lost you in the Crusades / […] But I keep on falling for you / Time after time”. It’s very personal to me, and I cry uncontrollably every time I hear it, since I recognize the truth from the eternal depths of my soul. The song “Soul Mate” (Flora Cash) also describes soulmates’ dedication to each other through the lives, “For what it’s worth, I’d die with you again / A hundred more times multiplied by ten / I hope I’ll always have you in my mind / So that I know to find you every time”. The illustrations in the video also have beautiful symbolism linked to the male and female part of the soul, the light and the darkness, which are described in the channeling, like yin and yang seeking each other to finally form a whole (links below).

 

I’m not writing all this just to tell you about my and Maria’s relationship, but I also have hopes that it will awaken emotions in you who read it, connected to your own journey. Maybe some of you too will come in contact with your deep longing for your soulmate, through the songs, or the joy of having already found your soulmate and what that may imply. With its strong energies, music can often touch on deeper levels than words.

~ The crucial message of grounding ~

In addition to my personal grief, I wondered who would now spread the wisdom about the importance of Mother Earth healing and grounding, which according to ALL sources in Maria’s channelings is an absolute prerequisite for the human’s spiritual transformation, and for coping with the energy raising of the Transition in the best way. That is the most important of all messages of the Mother Earth Network. Grounding means here, in short, that you in a meditation receive and fill yourself with the red female energy from Mother Earth’s inner core. Humanity is far too ungrounded, and the female energy within Mother Earth’s interior is the key to the next step in our spiritual transformation. Who would now spread this crucial message? No one else is doing it! 

I am posting a collection of quotes from Maria’s channeling about grounding, so that you can understand why I use such strong words when it comes to the importance of deep grounding:

Public channeling of the Divine Consciousness (“God”), through Maria Bertram, Stockholm, April 27th 2011:
You have the power within reach. All you have to do is – instead of connecting upwards – connect downwards, to Earth’s interior. Heal the power channel that all of humanity once had intact, but that was disturbed, which put the whole Earth and humanity out of balance. All the answers to humanity’s problems are to be found in Earth’s interior. All consciousness-raising must happen through connecting to Earth’s interior, through grounding.

 

Channeling no 2 of Dibarak – leader of the ascended civilization ”The Invincible Ones”, through Maria Bertram, March 1st 2010:
As the situation is today on Earth, both you humans and Earth are suffering from an enormous shortage of female energy, and this shortage has to be restored. That’s more important than anything. Due to the transition to the Spiritual Age, waves of light, male light, are pouring over the Earth, and it increases gradually with time to become more and more powerful, the closer to the Transition you get. This light has to be met, and balanced with the female red energy from Earth’s interior. Both Earth herself and humans need to be grounded and need additional female energies, since you are all suffering from an enormous lack of it today. This lack has been present for a very long time, since the female energies and the female ways of being have been suppressed on Earth. It’s time for humans to rediscover their inner goddesses and once again start to worship Earth as the divine First Mother she is. 

 

Channeling of Kaleidos from Pleiadian Council, through Maria Bertram, August 1st, 2012:
One thing we have noticed with very great clarity is that in almost all of the channelings that are now being spread across the Earth, except for some isolated exceptions, nothing is even mentioned about the importance of humans working on their spiritual development, and that the human needs to channel the Mother Earth energies from Earth’s interior. This knowledge is close to non-existent, except in your channelings. This is very worrying since this is by far the most important message of all that we have to convey to you. It’s the grounding, the connecting and tuning into Earth’s interior which is the connection that will protect you, that will save you and that will help you in your spiritual development. That’s what you need in order to be able to receive the strong light-waves that are now being spread on Earth, and to develop in the way that is meant.

 

Public channeling of Toisheeba from “Arrakas,” through Maria Bertram, Stockholm, Sweden, May 9th 2011
“You are not grounded. You are not in balance, because you are suffering from such a large lack of female energy, since the gates to the Earth’s interior – the energy centre of the female energy – has been closed down and blocked. In order to receive the extremely powerful consciousness-raising energy that’s coming in due to the Transition, you need to ground yourselves. It’s a precondition in order to enter the New Spiritual Age. If you are not grounded, you will ‘fly away’. […] The whole thing is very simple. You don’t need to take any particular courses, learn any advanced techniques, or any particular rituals. It is very simple. You simply need to channel the energy from Earth’s interior. It will transform you. We in the Galactic Federation have taught Maria and Manne about these techniques, ‘Mother Earth-healing’, which in essence are very simple. Anyone can perform them, and it’s a part of their task to spread them across the Earth, to anyone who wants.”

 

 

Channeling of “The Manta Ray” from “The Dream People,” the Andromeda galaxy, through Maria Bertram, July 29th 2011 (Not yet published):
“Recreate your energy connection with Mother Earth, because when you have done that you will be able to connect yourself to the higher consciousness expanding frequencies coming from the Cosmos, and that comes from us – your cosmic friends. But remember that the precondition is that you are grounded, otherwise you will not be able to receive these high energy frequencies – it’s an impossibility. […] We want to tell you that it’s the grounding healing – the Mother Earth-healing with which you connect yourself to the female energies of Earth’s interior – that is the key to your path to enlightenment. The road to the highest Divine Light goes through the darkness, that is, through the female energy. […] This is a gradual process that is done through grounding yourself with the female regressive energy, and then fill yourself with the male expansive light energy, step by step in turns, and you will reach higher and higher levels in order to be able to reach the highest divine energy frequencies and the most strongest energy from the highest Divine Source”

 

 

Channeling of the Higher Self, August 29th, 2014
What you need to do in order to work with cleansing your blockages, your karma and your ego is to begin channeling Mother Earth-healing, the grounding healing from the center of the Earth – at least an hour a day. Let it become an as natural a part of your life as eating and sleeping, brushing your teeth and going to the toilet. It is, and will increasingly be, a crucial task for you. You will feel that you need it in order to feel good, and once you have started you will never want to stop. […] It is through attaining more powerful grounding, that you then will be able to receive the Divine Light, the divine energy from the Divine Source. Humans today have not the capacity to receive the divine energy of the Divine Source to the extent that they would need, because they are so closed and ungrounded. The lack of grounding means that they fly away when they are exposed to too much divine light. That is what your main task is – to ground yourselves, so that you will be receptive to the Divine Light as it sweeps across the Earth. But also to become receptive to meeting the Divine Light when you go to the Divine Source yourselves to channel energy”.

 

I didn’t feel like the person that could take over the baton and be the representative for this crucial message. It’s a huge responsibility to shoulder. I had only written down and spread Maria’s messages, even though I also had lived it. But I could not produce the long, deep, detailed channelings that Maria could. Even though I practice, it’s something that has been blocked through all the years. I could not provide answers to all the questions. The Network’s foundation was based solely on channeled information, after all.

~ How do you replace someone irreplaceable ~

The love, power, profoundness, truth and the energy of Maria’s channelings were unique. Since Maria came to Earth to spread the message of grounding, and worked intensively with grounding to strengthen her psychic channel for over ten years, countless souls such as cosmic masters and enlightened civilizations lined up to convey their message to humanity about spiritual development and the importance of grounding through her (since it was hard to convey it through most others). If Maria and I could have decided, we could easily have released at least one new 10-page channeling every month, and even start with video channelings, but that was obviously not meant to be, and we had to learn to accept it the hard way.

 

Maria gave up just about everything in her life for her spiritual development and her cosmic mission here on Earth. Behind every channeling she made, there was enormous hard work. Apart from all the time she spent with us in the family, she devoted all her waking time to meditation and astral journeys with healing work in the higher dimensions, and constantly new missions to activate new energy flows, and to protect and raise the energy level of humanity, the Earth, and our entire Cosmos. Often she had to stay up and ”work” all through the nights. She told me about astral journeys to other planets, to Inner Earth, and meetings with the Galactic Federation and the Cosmic Council.

Early in our relationship, I got an example of the extent of her workload when I asked her what she was thinking about while she was standing with her eyes closed in a crowded bus that we were on, and she replied that our Cosmos was under attack and that she was out on an astral journey on a cooperative effort together with other souls to protect it. 

 

It was part of her soul contract to be pushed as hard as she was, to create an adamant strength. She always completed her missions even though she often felt frustrated, inadequate and exhausted. Privately, she was an ”ordinary person” with a difficult upbringing behind her, and she struggled with fears and low self-esteem like the rest of us. But at the same time, through her stubborn inner work, she had developed an inner strength, a pain tolerance, a spiritual dedication and an open heart that was nothing short of superhuman.
