Searching for Our True Nature, with Linden Thorp

During episodes 40 and 42 of radio talk show “Nurturing the Spiritual Spelunker in All of Us,” host Gilles Asselin will be conversing on the topic of Our True Nature with mystic Sister Linden Thorp.

 

Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/07/2015 -- Linden Thorp has healing in the background of many other lives. In this life, she is a Body worker (F.M. Alexander, Moshe Feldenkrais), and worked as a Creative/Music therapist in Europe for many years, specializing in visually impaired Autism (she has learned so much from the sensually deprived). She has been a seeker for many decades and, as a child, received a message from the Buddha to go in search of Him, even though she was born into a Catholic family in the north of Britain and had never heard the word 'Buddha' before. She also met Indian Masters Jiddu Krishnamurti and Achariya Rajneesh Osho as a young woman, and continues to be touched by their unique gifts, and those of Indian and Burmese Masters in general.

Latterly, she has ceased to use the word 'teacher' because she has realized that this label places those who teach above or at a distance to those who learn. It is a small act of violence as all beings are equal, and it is impossible to teach anyone anything. She prefers nowadays to use the word 'facilitator' or 'guide' or, in certain circumstances, even 'catalyst,' because all life in form is alchemical, and each energy constellation has the potential to be an alchemist. She no longer 'teaches' but instead 'edifies' in conventional University classrooms in Japan, and in small groups of professionals privately.

She has spent 30 years engaged in Buddhist practice, and latterly in Japanese Mahayana Buddhist became ordained as a Shinnyo-en priest. The Nirvana teachings, the final teachings of Buddha Shyakyamuni, have completed her Buddhist training, and now she has gone beyond to find her true Buddha Nature and emptiness. Now she facilitates True Nature universally at every opportunity. This is a great challenge especially in Japan, where formulaic behavior and a great gulf between public and private life persist. She lives in her Temple Precinct, but rarely goes there physically now as her temple is in her heart. (see book - 'Temple of the Phoenix,' 2012)

Life is now consumed with listening to her own voice, writing as amanuensis from spirit and spirit guides, and trying to avoid too many influences so that her True Nature can convey Its authentic truth. She has written and published 4 spiritual books, and there are many more to come. Each of her books represents a stage in her spiritual training as writing is a multidimensional activity for her. The latest 2 books concern the Cathars and Troubadour of medieval Languedoc, a region of southern France where she lived for 6 years ('Veil"), and the creed of the Church of Love ('Glorious Life: Glorious Death'). She finds the same traits in the Cathar way, the Buddhist way, and the way of indigenous peoples living their traditional lives. It is the way of all beings made flesh. Whilst living in Languedoc she uncovered by accident her former Cathar life as 'Fabrisse de Caramany,' well-known Trobiaritz and Cathar who perished at Château de Quéribus in the region of Aude in 13th century. Her story appears in 'Veil.'

ninija is her Desert wisdom guide (see 'Easy-Happy-Sexy,' - 2013/15) whom she met briefly in the flesh in the Dreaming Lands of the South Australian Desert, and initiated and entrusted as conveyor of ninija's story. There are many more books to be written in this regard. Indigenous peoples are the key to the survival of Planet earth, and it is Linden's mission to convey this wisdom in the written word and as a channel to developed nations.

Linden is an active websiteist, writing on many spiritual topics (www.divinethread.wordpress.com; {Oneness/Beyond Duality}; www.lindenthorp.wordpress.com {Buddhist-Nirvana Linden}), and as a literary writer (www.validlit.wordpress.com) She also writes a daily meditation for 'citizens of the world and custodians of the Universe' – www.touchyourhearteveryday.wordpress.com. This is also a Oneness/Beyond Duality site.

Her spiritual publications to date can be found on Amazon.

Gilles Asselin, a spiritual teacher originally from France, uses the metaphor of the Spiritual Spelunker to discuss various human matters (such as thoughts, mind, faith, emotions, our self-imposed limitations, or the Dark Night of the soul) in his weekly radio show. After a brief career in accounting and finance in France and Africa, he moved to the U.S. where he eventually became a cross-cultural trainer. The awareness that he gained over the years in his spiritual practice led him to full-time dedication to the path and nurtured in him the desire to inspire and support his fellow Brothers and Sisters on their journey within.
