Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Clarifying the Infinity Keys Model

————————————————

Question 1: If accepting the truths of the Keys to Heaven will allow entry into Heaven on Earth, why do we need the Keys to Self?

Response 1: I would argue that in order to be in a state of consciousness to be able to accept the truths of the Keys to Heaven, you first have to accept other truths about yourself, i.e. the truths behind the Keys to Self.  Otherwise, the Keys to Heaven are rather vague, esoteric concepts that you may be able to accept intellectually, but not fully feel within yourself as a reality FOR YOU.

——————————

Question 2: I fully understand and accept that the truths of the Keys to Heaven will get us into a state of consciousness that would be considered Heaven on Earth, especially when we apply those truths in our daily lives, but is this also not true of the Keys to Self?  If so, how are they different?

Response 2: It is my contention that the Keys to Heaven are hard to accept unless (or until) you accept other truths about yourself first, i.e. the Key to Self.  In a nutshell, the fundamental questions behind the Keys to Self are:

• Do you really WANT to find Heaven on Earth? 

• Have you really given yourself over to that path? 

• Are you taking steps to align your will to that of Heaven (even if you don’t fully understand Heaven’s will yet)? 

• Do you understand that Heaven (as a state of consciousness) is incomplete without you? 

• Do you understand that your awakening to this is part of the Divine Plan?

This is why the Keys to Self bring you to the threshold of Heaven, where you are put into a state of mind that allows you to accept the truths behind the Keys to Heaven.

——————————

Question 3: I understand that the Keys to Self may prepare someone for the Keys to Heaven, but how do they actually function differently in practice?

Response 3: Essentially, they work the same — they are truths that you have to incorporate into your belief system, but the Keys to Self address your beliefs about yourself, while the Keys to Heaven address your beliefs about the state of Heaven itself.

——————————

Question 4: What does being at the threshold mean?

Response 4: It means you are mentally (as well as emotionally and spiritually) prepared to incorporate the truths of the Keys to Heaven into your fundamental belief system, i.e. you put yourself in a frame of mind or a state of consciousness to fully address what the Keys to Heaven will bring.

——————————

Question 5: When you say the Keys to Self bring someone to the threshold, what specifically changes in the person at that point?  How do they know?

Response 5: It means they have accepted the truths of the Keys to Self about themselves such that they are prepared to take the next step to address the truths that put them into that state of mind/consciousness that we call Heaven on Earth.  They know they are there because they accept those truths as part of their core belief system (which means they can’t be derailed by unsubstantiated arguments to the contrary).

——————————

Question 6: What is the practical difference between being at the threshold of Heaven and actually entering in?

Response 6: Being at the threshold means you’ve accepted the truths about yourself, but you haven’t yet fully accepted the truths of Heaven — you may have caught glimpses or even understand them intellectually, but you haven’t fully embodied them as part of your core belief system.

——————————

Question 7: You teach that the Keys to Self will lead to the threshold of Heaven, and the Keys to Heaven will serve as the entry point.  Could all keys be entry points?  Let’s say I was in a state of Heaven, but lost my passion — when it returned, I went right back into Heaven.  That is, I did not go through surrender, alignment, humility, or hope to get back to my previous point of understanding the Keys to Heaven. 

Response 7: In that scenario, I believe that you wouldn’t have to go back through all the other keys because you had already accepted those truths.  Think of each key as a link in a chain.  If one link gets broken, that doesn’t mean all other links are.  Once you restore that one link, you are free to zip along the whole chain again.

——————————

Question 8: If each key is a link in the same chain, then every key contributes equally to the experience of Heaven’s state of consciousness.  And yet, you have said the Keys to Self prepares you for the Keys to Heaven.  What then is the real distinction?

Response 8: This is correct.  As links in a chain, all keys must be fully understood and accepted (even if not overtly) to enter into and stay in a state of Heaven on Earth.  But there is still a distinction between the keys related to yourself and those related to Heaven.  Remember, the Keys to Heaven were given to us by Archangel Gabrielle, so I treat them as fixed.  But, it is my contention that there is another set of keys that must be addressed first, i.e. the Keys to Self.

——————————

Question 9: So the Keys to Self take us to the threshold, and also keep us in that state of Heaven.  How can they do both?

Response 9: Responses 7 & 8 address this — they do both as links in a chain.  Not only do you have to build the chain to get to the threshold, but you also have to maintain the chain once in Heaven to stay there.

——————————

Question 10: The Keys to Heaven were identified years ago, so some have already been navigating them, and some may have even experienced glimpses of Heaven on Earth.  How then do the Keys to Self support their journey?  Since we were able to enter heaven without consciously knowing the Keys to Self, how do we reconcile that the Keys to Self is what takes us to the threshold of Heaven?

Response 10: Just because you haven’t overtly learned about and acknowledged the Keys to Self doesn’t mean you haven’t accepted on your own the truths behind them.  The Infinity Keys path is not the only path to Heaven, but I believe it offers a concise approach that will certainly make the path more straightforward and understandable.

——————————

Question 11: Given that the Keys to Self and the Keys to Heaven offer a sequenced progression of understandings (from Passion to Love) and that the Keys to Self are a necessary precursor to be able to accept the Keys to Heaven, how are we to understand the relationship between the individual Keys to Self with their natural pairs in the Keys to Heaven?

Response 11: While, in my mind, there is a stepwise progression of thought and belief from the Keys to Self, starting with Passion, and then on through the Keys to Heaven, leading ultimately to Love, there is also a connection between individual keys in each group.  For instance, addressing the Key to Self of Surrender will naturally highlight the need to trust in the Divine, which is its corresponding connection to the Key to Heaven.  That’s not to say that you have to fully learn and accept the lessons of the Keys to Heaven when addressing the Keys to Self — it simply means that you will catch glimpses of that part of Heaven when contemplating that part of yourself.  Because of these natural connection points, the Keys to Self and the Keys to Heaven should be viewed as complimentary.

Also, the Keys to Self help you overcome the false belief in the apparent states of 3D life, which stand in the way of seeing and accepting the truths of the Keys to Heaven.  That is, the Keys to Self are the bridges to overcome the apparent 3D states to get you to the Keys to Heaven.  For example, you can use the Key to Self of Alignment to overcome the feelings of judgment or blame in order to ultimately be able to accept the Key to Heaven of Forgiveness.

——————————

Question 12: Why are the Key to Self - Key to Heaven pairs important?  Are they opposite ends of the same energy?  How is practicing them together different than individually?

Response 12: The pairs are not opposites.  When I was inspired to define the Keys to Self, it occurred to me that there is a connection point between each with a specific Key to Heaven (through the common key of Balance).  When addressing a particular Key to Self, you catch a glimpse of its pair in the Keys to Heaven — you get something of a preview of the end game, and that’s useful because it serves to keep the end goal in mind.  Also, when contemplating the apparent states of 3D reality, the Keys to Self offer a means to overcome those apparent states in order to get to their full elimination through the Keys to Heaven.

Regarding the Infinity Keys Workshop Series

—————————————————————

Question 13: What is the expected outcome of the Infinity Keys Workshop Series?  What should the participants expect to walk away with?

Response 13: I’m not saying that everyone will be “in Heaven” at the end of the workshops, but they should have a good sense of the roadmap to get there … and can proceed down that path anytime they choose!  If at any point the participants find they are NOT in a state of Heaven on Earth, they should be able to use the Infinity Keys model to examine their own belief systems and identify the area(s) of blockage which are standing in the way.  The workshops will guide the participants through this process and then teach some skills to apply in everyday situations.

——————————

Question 14: Who is the target audience for the Infinity Keys model?  Is it only those new to the spiritual journey to find Heaven on Earth?

Response 14: No, the Infinity Keys model (i.e. the marriage of the Keys to Self with the Keys to Heaven) is useful to a wide spectrum of people with different levels of experience.  Anyone who is considering or who has come to realize that the state of Heaven on Earth is accessible anytime we choose will find this model useful as a guide, even if only to put all their understandings into context.  This could even be someone who’s been on a spiritual journey for a long time, but isn’t taking that last step, simply because they haven’t considered that they can.

Applying the Infinity Keys Model

———————————————

Question 15: How do you put this wisdom into daily practice?  How do you stay in the flow of the keys?  What type of practice should we expect to have with the keys?

Response 15: This is the basic intention behind the exercises presented in the workshop series, where the participants learn particular skills that demonstrate how each of the Key to Self - Key to Heaven Pairs can be applied in practice.  At the end of the series, the participants will have a set of skills they can apply daily (or as the need arises).  Many of these exercises are teaching the use of a particular “tool/gift” (e.g., the Mother’s Gift of Removal), but we like the term “skill,” rather than “tool,” because a tool is only useful when applied by someone who is skilled in its use.

——————————

Question 16: It seems odd to identify fear as the 3D state that opposes the Key to Heaven of Love.  Is not hate the opposite of love?

Response 16: This is a common misconception.  Many people would say the opposite of love is hate, but it’s actually fear.  Most, if not all, issues that people feel are rooted in a fear of something.  The most common is a feeling of unworthiness, which is really a fear of not being allowed back into that state of Heaven, after having separated yourself from your awareness that you never actually left.

God is Love, so Heaven is being in a state of unconditional Love.  Hate is a consequence of feeling fear of some aspect of God.  As Yoda said in Star Wars, the Phantom Menace when talking about young Aniken Skywalker (who would become Darth Vader), “I sense much fear in him.  Fear leads to anger.  Anger leads to hate.  Hate leads to suffering.”  This is absolutely true, and I could not say it any better!

——————————

Question 17: Jesus (Yeshua) taught us not to judge.  How does this reconcile or fit in with the Infinity Keys?

Response 17: The act of judging another is a consequence of blaming them for something you perceive they have or have not done.  So, blame would fall into the category of judgment and, thus, can be addressed through the Key to Self of Alignment to find the Key to Heaven of Forgiveness.

——————————

Question 18: How can we use the Infinity Keys to help us understand and get beyond feelings of disappointment, especially as events unfold in unexpected ways?

Response 18: Disappointment relates to not seeing events unfold as we expected them to happen.  This is really an attempt on our part to control the outcome or the way the Divine Plan calls for the event to unfold, so the Key to Heaven of Trust is the antidote, assisted by the Key to Self of Surrender.  Stated another way, we can use our choice of surrender to overcome our desire to control the outcome, as belied by our feelings of disappointment, to fall back on trust in the Divine Plan (even if we don’t understand the fullness of what that is).
