MAHALO – to Akua, the source behind everything

Aloha dear reader

My name is Maree and I am sitting in my kitchen – it’s quiet and early in the morning. 3 a.m. I am half awake, half in my dream with my ocean friends. Today is a special day – like the day before was, too. In fact, all the days are special since I almost died in Egypt in August 2013. I am happy.

I am still here on earth. Grateful to be alive after everything I went through. I feel blessed to tell you this story, which starts with fireworks and ends with a big reunion. Happy people with smiles full of wisdom and peace building bridges to different cultures and countries. Come with me to different dimensions of reality: the ocean-dolphin-dream-time, the whale-wisdom-world (the new www.), the Hawaiian wisdom, the world of the Egyptian Pharaoh and the dimension of myths and legends.

I was close to death, travelling through different stages of leaving my body. But I am still here – with experiences that made my life worth living even more.

I invite you to join my vision of conciliation and unity, because we are ONE. One race – the human race. We are all human beings. Let us be the Heart-Hugs-People – an ancient tribe full of love, peace, music, happiness and support for each other. Let us live from our hearts – the paradise within us.

Are you ready to read and listen to this story? It might be an adventurous journey and it might change your life – or your thoughts about it!

Fireworks

Do you like fireworks? I actually do like them. Not so much the noise, but the beautiful colors and all the glittering. It makes me feel like being in a fairy tale in which I can act like a princess, a magician or a queen and create all the glittering and the colors with my magic wand.

In Switzerland we celebrate the National Day on August 1st with lots of fireworks and a big bonfire up in the mountains. You see the Swiss flag hanging from balconies and windows. I remember this day as a nice and warm summer day, a special occasion that always happens during summer break. All the children love that day – so did I as a kid.

I was born and raised in Switzerland, a small country in the middle of Europe. I grew up in a privileged place, a beautiful small city, in an apartment that satisfied all my needs. A safe and solid country, where I have never experienced war or violence, where I have never been far away from any medical help. Just a cosy and friendly home with a lot of other children to play with. I played lots of games with my friends in nature. We climbed trees, built little houses in the forest, ran in the woods, played hide and seek and flew kites in the wind. I loved to feel the wind on my skin, to lay in the green grass and to observe the clouds, changing their shapes, telling me stories of animals, heroes, kings and queens. It seemed like the sky was presenting a fairy tale – just for me. In winter I lay in the snow – forming angels with my arms – wrapped in thick layers of clothes. I liked all the seasons in my childhood and I always found something to play with and something to create. Even the rain made me happy. I jumped in all the puddles and crowed every time. My favourite element has always been water, even though I love to feel all the elements – wind, water, sun, earth – directly on my skin. Walking barefoot made me feel so happy and free. Feeling the water on my feet or on my whole body has always been special for me. I am magically attracted by water, it is my best friend. I enjoy sitting by a lake, a river, a spring up in the mountains, listening to the sound of the water, watching it move and flow beautifully. I could play in the water forever. Most of all, I am attracted by the ocean and its waves. I don’t really know why, maybe because I could not experience it as a child. Switzerland has no access to the ocean. You can find beautiful clear lakes and rivers but no sea or ocean. My continuous request to my parents to spend some time near the ocean was finally heard when I was 15 years old. That’s when I swam in the Mediterranean Sea for the first time. My body was sparkling happy!

I was sitting by the sea watching the waves. Waves, they always move to the shore – towards me. The wind caresses the water and pushes it gently – to create a wave. What a simple beauty. The movement of the waves is like meditation. It makes me quiet and humble. Nature and its treasures – my biggest teachers.

The movement of fire has a completely different energy. It’s more uplifting and exciting. The cracking noise tells another story, the flames go up in the sky, they dance in the air, joyful and happy. Like the fireworks on the Swiss National Day on August 1st.

Just not in 2013, this year was completely different for me.

The fireworks exploded inside of me that day. I felt like I was dying from an exploding fire inside of me and no pain killer could ease my pain. I threw up everything that touched my mouth. The tremendous pain lasted for about 12 hours. I was so weak that even the smallest movements were too much for me. There was no doctor and no hospital nearby, I was too far away from any medical help. A real worst case scenario. I was laying on the wooden floor of a motor boat out in the Red Sea in Egypt.

Since my childhood, I have always wanted to be near the water. Now I was there and could not really enjoy it. The sounds of the sea and the waves – I can usually listen to them forever, they make me feel very relaxed and comfy. But just not that day.

The waves, which I loved so much, were moving in their gentle rhythm. I heard them and I was longing to sink into the sea to be free from this major pain inside my body. I was ready to die and to be in the beloved ocean forever – like my favourite animals, the whales and the dolphins.

The dolphin whale dream August 2013, Egypt – on the red sea

Every breath I took felt like my last one. I was very conscious of my breathing. Like the dolphins and whales – they are always aware of their breathing. That’s their only way of staying alive – taking one breath after the other in a conscious way. No other choice – maybe that makes them so special, highly developed beings in the water.

I was listening to my breath, feeling the pain and sighing while breathing out. Slowly fading away – in another dimension of reality. In that dimension I was swimming in a warm and beautiful ocean. Very clear water. I saw myself with open arms, a smiling face and completely relaxed. Lying in the ocean of love being kissed by the sunrays. How beautiful! Free and whole. No more pain.

I don’t know how long I was in this other dimension and at which point these scary faces and pictures started to come to my mind and into my head. All my issues of fear and their different aspects emerged. It was a last test before dying – I thought. But everything changed when the dolphins appeared. They swam into my subconscious and told me a beautiful story. The dolphin-dream-story in dolphin-dream-time. As they circled around me, they ate all the scary faces surrounding me. They picked up the ugly pictures with their noses and played with them like they would play with a ball.

I felt my whole body relax while I was watching the dolphins play and was suddenly back in the ocean of love. Surrounded by love, trust, peace, luck, support and the dolphins. As my guides they navigated me through the landscapes of fear, doubt, war, pain and hate, showing me the way into the light, into a new life, a new chapter. They whispered in my dream, in my heart – messages of tenderness – and finally ended with a big squeaking:

“Remember your ocean friends. They are always with you.”

From deep down below I suddenly heard another sound come up, like a whale song. Beautiful! The following words reached my ears:

“We are many ocean beings and we are here for you. Call us, let us help and support you. And let us give you our advice – the wise advice from the beginning of everything – from the big blue ocean. We have stored all the wisdom and all the memories. Call upon us, we love to help and support you and all the human beings. Are you ready to receive? Are you ready to listen?”

After I heard these words I was surrounded by the vibration of the whale song. My jaw was shivering and my bones perceived the healing vibration of these sounds. I felt like I was in a big bathtub of melodies – they reached my heart and sang the song of the beginning of everything. My cells remembered and they got filled up with this information full of love, light and wisdom. As I opened my eyes in this vibrational field, I was facing the right eye of a giant whale. Right in front of me. He had come from the whale-dream-time into my energy field to teach me his wisdom.

I was amazed and deeply touched and I knew instinctively that the dolphins and this whale were my guides from the ocean-dimension. The ocean of love, peace, light, healing and the infinit wisdom.

Coming back into the other reality was not that easy for me. I was still laying on the wooden floor on the boat and I was not able to move my body without pain. The Egyptian crew members were very nice to me. They brought cold towels to relieve my hot head and at least one person was always with me, holding my hand or supporting me in another way. Their careful help eased my pain a little bit – but I knew that something was not good at all. I had never experienced pain like that before.

What could the dolphins and the whale do for me in this reality? I felt them as my guides, but did not know how they could navigate me through all these challenges I was facing right now. Would they give me the power to survive? Would they support me in my belief that everything will be fine in the end? Would they give me hope?

Because hope dies at last…

Ocean friends January 2014, Oahu – Honolulu

“Look out there, at 12 o’clock you see two humback whales breaching!”, yelled the captain of the whale watching boat. The crowd moved in the direction the captain had pointed them and almost everybody took out a camera and tried to take photos. I was just enjoying the whales – my eyes were following every breach and the big splashes they made. One big whale was breaching 3 times, one after the other. What a power! I felt awesome and happy. Splashingly happy.

“Aloha, do you enjoy the whales? I do, without camera – it’s so relaxing. My name is Brian. I hope you don’t mind me talking to you.” At first I did not hear the man who was talking to me. I was submerged in the whale world. The majesty of these amazing animals touched me deeply and I felt like fading away from the human reality. It’s like being in their world, listening to their stories of wisdom from ancient times. The Hawaiians would say they are in “Ike Papaha” – in the mystical-holistical-dimension, where everything and everybody is ONE and there is no time.

I stuttered: “Oh, Aloha Brian. Sorry it took some time to answer. I was just gone for a while – the whales have this power – they mesmerize me.” “I saw that and I know about that effect. It happens to me, too – that’s why I watch them without camera. My eyes are the camera!”

I was surprised. Brian used exactly my words and expressed my personal feelings. When friends ask me why I did not take more photos on my whale and dolphin trips I tell them that my eyes take all the photos and that they are my camera. The photos are stored in my brain and they leave their traces in my life forever. I like to tell the stories of my experiences, my feelings and my encounters. These stories then create pictures in the mind of every person, who is listening.

“Wow, that’s nice to hear! I think you understand me very well!” “Yes, that’s why I wanted to talk with you,” Brian answered. “Where are you from and what are you doing in your life?”

I was far away from my home country and with a few words from Brian I felt like being at home. He made me feel like a family member – so close in less than a minute. Maybe it’s the ocean-whale-dolphin-connection. People who share the same fascination feel like family members very fast. I remember this feeling from my time as an active basketball player. Everywhere I played basketball, I made friends very fast and we always had a good time together.

“I am from Switzerland and where are you from?” “I might not look like the typical Hawaiian man, but I was actually born and raised here on Oahu, close to the big city of Honolulu.” “What do you mean by typical Hawaiian? Is there someone like that?” “Good question. My father came to Oahu as a baby – from the Philippines. My mother and my grandmother were born on Maui, but her great-grandparents came from Portugal. If you look at the ancestorial line of Hawaiians who were born on the islands, you will find a lot of different countries. I guess you will have to go way back in history to find the typical Hawaiian. I like them a lot – they have a great history of kingdom and the spirit of Aloha.” Brian winked at me and smiled. He had a nice smile. I liked it. His mouth was surrounded by wrinkles from laughing, which made his face very likeable. “Yes, it’s interesting to read and hear about the Hawaiian history. I feel very attracted to it. That’s why I keep returning to these beautiful islands,” I answered and winked back at him.

I felt a nice connection of hearts between me and Brian – 10 minutes ago he was a complete stranger to me. Sometimes it’s amazing how quickly someone feels familiar. As if Brian could read my thoughts, he started to talk about staying in the heart and how powerful this can be.

“The most beautiful place on earth is in your heart. Go there and you will be able to embrace everybody – a Muslim, a Hindu, a Christian, a Buddhist, a Sikh, even a terrorist or a murderer. Why? In your heart is a light that shines bright. Always. As long as you are on earth with your body. It shines and longs for being seen. If you meet another being in his or her heart or you open the door to your heart – the two lights will shine together. It’s like the flames of candles. One candle gives a nice light, two or more candles shine brighter. They double the light. There is a nice Hawaiian word for this light inside of your heart. La’a Kea – the light of love. If you stay in your heart, you will see everybody as a member of your family – Ohana. If you stay in your heart, you are truly living the Aloha-Spirit of our islands.” That was the end of Brian’s explanation.

I was amazed and inspired by his words and a melody of a song came to me. A song that was created in the warmth of the ocean, caressed by the water and all of its beautiful beings. The dolphins whispered them in my heart.

Stay in your heart, stay in your heartLet yourself beStay in your heart, stay in your heartThat makes you freeStay in your heart, stay in your heartAnd love yourself first

While I was singing the song to Brian, he closed his eyes and he gently moved to the melody. Apparently rhythm is in his blood.

When I stopped singing, we were both silent – for an eternal moment. Nothing could disturb this silence. It was a holy moment.
