Mystical Traveler
by Sylvia Browne
The highest and most advanced spiritual level you can obtain in this life is that of a mystical traveler. But fear not: it isn't outwardly manifested through flogging, long fasts, or other forms of punishment, such as penance, denial, self-sacrifice, and loneliness.
Becoming a priest, nun, minister, cleric, or rabbi doesn't guarantee that you'll become a mystical traveler, and such a soul is not automatically a saint, as interpreted by Christian dogma. (It turns out that everyone who gets to heaven or The Other Side is a saint in one form or another.)
It's true that most of my ministers are aware of the mystical traveler phenomenon, but not even all of then have taken on the mantle, and that's absolutely fine. Please don't feel that anything is mandatory. It's interesting because Francine says that taking the oath of the mystical traveler is really for the souls who feel there must be "more" - they sense some form of unrest, as if an alarm has gone off and propelled them to something greater, but they don't have a name for it. Of course, those who don't choose to be mission-life entities or mystical travelers can still advance for God.
As I've said before, becoming a mystical traveler is not for the faint of heart…in fact, in the beginning it is very, very hard. This oath should not be taken lightly because it marks your soul for Father and Mother God, aligning you especially with Her - you more or less join Her army for good. Think of having Mother God as your Commander after you've accepted the mantle.
Since so many don't opt to become mystical travelers, and even fewer were created by our Parents, you may wonder what it is that pulls souls to such a high level of spirituality. I believe that of those who become mystical travelers, most can point to being on their last lives as the driving force to do so.
There are several reasons for this. First, by the time an individual soul has incarnated for the last time, he or she has been shown the need for great spiritual advancement over and over again. Second, the final existence is the last opportunity to become a mystical traveler in a realm other than The Other Side. And third, by the time a soul is done incarnating, a great deal of wisdom has been accumulated. Part of that wisdom is the knowledge that our Creators love us all unconditionally and would never ask us to do any more than we've already decided to do, nor would They ever give us more than we can handle.
Even though they're on their last lives here on this planet, mystical travelers will at any time be asked to go elsewhere in the galaxy to right wrongs. According to Francine, other worlds don't have illnesses, wars, and chaos that Earth does, so at least it's some consolation that those of us who have taken on the mantle won't have to reside on any planet that has the insanity that this one does.
In addition, mystical travelers become instilled with healing abilities, whether it's through words or the laying on of hands. Since they've given up their will to Mother and Father God, Their grace comes right through such individuals to whomever they wish to heal or help.
When you become a mystical traveler, it doesn't mean that you automatically become a psychic and/or a healer, but it will eventually happen. Whether you decide to hang out a shingle is up to you, but you'll definitely feel yourself becoming more infused with spiritual knowledge and thus able to write about your journey and help other people with what you've learned. You may not always be right, but you'll be right more often than you're wrong.
Keep in mind that even Jesus was criticized and called evil and a charlatan. Despite his being the Messiah, his detractors couldn't see this, or understand that his real mission was to free them from the bondage of this world and make them understand that life is temporary. Yet although they crucified him, he triumphed in the end.
The world can be fickle, and the love you receive one minute can turn to disdain the next. But you can overcome this by keeping constant, always remaining on course, and staying honest. If you've fallen, be up front, for people tend to forgive everything but deception. Above all, never put yourself smugly above and ahead of others - if you do, then you become full of pride and self-righteousness. Who are you to look down on anyone? Keep in mind that in some of your other incarnations, chances are you were probably just as bad as the person you're currently judging.
The Six Levels
It is known that there are seven levels on The Other Side and that individuals choose their life charts to advance for God. But please understand that entities on the third level of The Other Side can be just as advanced as those on the sixth. These levels are more occupational in nature: If you'd like to work with animals, you'd go to the third level; if you'd rather be a researcher, you'd go to the fifth level; if you'd prefer to teach, you'd go to the sixth level, and so on.
Let me stop here and state that if all you did was live this life and go to any one of the seven levels on The Other Side, then you would have perfected for God with excellence. Those who leave the option of becoming a mystical traveler open in their charts simply have something in their souls that pushes them toward a higher level of spirituality. There's certainly nothing wrong with leading a normal existence, and you do raise your spirituality by doing so. But when you become a mystical traveler, you take on much more than normal. It's like saying that you'll be attending Harvard instead of your local junior college.
Just as there are levels on The Other Side, there are also levels that you'll go through as a mystical traveler. However, these are sequential and are more like stages. Here they are, in order:
1. The first level is the subconscious (or I should say, "superconscious") knowledge that there is in your soul that's crying out for your attention. It's telling you that you need to advance to a higher level of spirituality, but you don't necessarily know that you're being called to be a mystical traveler.
2. The second level is the recognition that you want to be a mystical traveler, even if you still don't have a specific label for it.
3. The third level is wrestling with the knowledge of what becoming such an advanced entity might entail; you may have received this knowledge by infusion.
4. The fourth level is taking on the mantle of the mystical traveler, which is done by totally surrendering to the will of God. Once you embark on this path, there is nothing that can make you turn back or deflect or negate it. As they say, "As it is written, so it will be." However, at this stage there is no validation - only acceptance of your gift and what it entails.
5. The fifth level is the activation of the gift of being a mystical traveler. This means that you'll do and go wherever God's will directs you. Remember that such status won't override your chart, but will make it more elongated and intense. You must keep in mind that even before you came in to life, you wrote in the opportunity to become a mystical traveler or mission-life entity.
6. The sixth and final level is "graduation"; that is, going Home and getting your next assignment. After you go through the orientation process on the Other Side, you go wherever and do whatever God wishes.
Love always,
