With my internet connection going down yet again, I was not able to put up the info about my forthcoming guest for this week's transmission of Toward The Light, in advance, as I usually do. Alas, everything happens for a reason—even that which seems chaotic and unfortunate—and with this type of thing happening ever so frequently of late, it's getting easier to simply surrender, 'go with the flow' and not get so put off or caught up by what may appear to be 'unfortunate' events or mishaps. So I acknowledged that I was 'out-of-commission' for a reason and just needed to do something else...
Tomas Vieira, author of Take Me To Truth was booked to be my featured guest this week on 27 July on Toward The Light, but I was delighted to find out that his partner/co-author, Nouk Sanchez, was also available to be on the show as well. As a result, I can now highlight both Tomas and Nouk—which would not have been the case if I'd put the profile up earlier, since I was totally unaware of her being able to join us. See, everything does happen for a reason! :)
I've got to admit that, due to moving house recently and still having all of my books packed in boxes, I was disappointed that I wasn't able to read Take Me To Truth in advance of the interview—which is my normal protocol before interviewing my guests on the show. However, I intuitively knew that I was already well aware of the content and powerful message contained within the pages of this fine book ... as a result of my own experiences. Sure enough, the conversations flowed so well, as if I had read the book in advance ... and the three of us had had previous discussions about all of this. Indeed, perhaps we have done telepathically and on other dimensions. Such was the ease and deep familiarity with the rich material covered in TMTT—not to mention the very warm exchange between us.
Another thing that made this dialogue so exciting is that I was able to validate everything that Tomas and Nouk brought up on account of my own experiences—as an NDEr and one who's had countless spiritually transformative experiences (STEs) and lived inter-dimensionally all of my life. Furthermore, what we all acknowledged is that one needn't have an NDE (or other potentially traumatic experience) in order to arrive at the simple truth conveyed in the book. It is as simple as suddenly being transported into the glorious light of divine love via meditation, playing music, gardening, being in the presence of a friend or having a lucid dream, for example, or just having one of those 'ah-hah!' moments.
There's such a powerful awakening going on all over the world and many people are spontaneously coming to the realisation that we are all divine and we are one—never separated or alone.
Take Me To Truth aims to uncover the lies that are brought on by the ego-mind, which is dominated and propelled by fear—that, in and of itself, is a lie, a monumental lie! Knowing that the ego, and what it claims, are totally false and not our true identity at all, is what ultimately will liberate us and bring us to true freedom.
I was so overjoyed to have Tomas & Nouk together on Toward The Light and I'll have the archived show up shortly for those who missed the live broadcast.
Tomas Vieira, co-author of
Take Me To Truth, was born in Hong Kong of Portuguese heritage and lived in Canada and the United States before settling in Australia. A 'Jack of all trades', his career has alternated between the private and the not-for-profit sectors. For the past six years, Tomas has been employed in the field of regional development. He has always had an interest in personal development, conducting life skills and personal development courses in communities for the past twenty years.
His strong commitment and desire to grow with his family led to an almost total deconstruction of his life and belief systems. Everything was turned upside down and inside out. When he finally emerged from this process he realised that his journey paralleled that of Nouk Sanchez in terms of the very clear stages involved in awakening. Like Nouk, he realised that there was no simple guide available to explain the process of undoing the ego and discovering Truth. As a result, he embarked on a collaboration to write this book.
Nouk Sanchez ~ Australian born, Nouk Sanchez has always been driven to seek the Truth, expose it and simplify the pathway for others to follow. Initially, this drive led her to become internationally recognised within the cosmetic industry. Nouk pioneered a revolutionary concept for 'esteem-enhancing' cosmetic application. Her holistic Feature-Focusing technique was aimed at giving all women over the age of twenty-five years the opportunity to look their very natural best. Her findings led to publication of a book and the formation of her cosmetics company.
Having blazed a pathway in cosmetics, Nouk retired from the industry to live in New Mexico, and dedicated herself to pursuing and teaching ego-release. In 1990, after being introduced to
A Course in Miracles, Nouk and her small spiritual family embarked upon learning the Six Stages of the Development of Trust. The fifteen-year journey of awakening led her to experience and understand the mechanism of the ego—how, why, when and where we sabotage ourselves.
Nouk learned how to enter the void, hold the faith and see the face of Truth. Her discoveries led her to simplify
A Course in Miracles’ miraculous formula for removing the obstacles that obscure Love’s presence in our daily lives. A simple and powerfully transformative, six-stage spiritual navigation guide is the culmination of her work.
Take Me to Truth is the first book to boldly address the fundamental problem that all spiritual seekers face on the journey to awakening; the ego.
Take Me to Truth is a powerful six-stage navigational guide that takes us through the six remarkable stages of undoing ego. Each of these stages becomes an experience of deepening trust, eventually removing all existing blocks to the awareness of the Infinite Love that we are and have. It bridges the yawning gap that exists between seeking enlightenment and finding it.
