JON AND JANE ANDERSON'S NARRATIVE OF THEIR FAMILY'S INCREDIBLE DAYS WITH
AUDREY IN LONDON
Dreams really do come true, and the strength of prayer is so real. To be
able to witness the power of Divine Mother's love yet again, was truly a
blessing.
JON: My children, Deborah, Damion, and Jade, whom many of you met last year
at the wonderful August Celebration, were privileged to connect with Audrey
as she traveled through Europe in May, 1999, spreading the Divine Light. It
was as if Divine Mother was guiding us back together in the spirit. My
dream, of course, had been for my children to be saved in this lifetime,
through the grace of Divine Mother. Such wonderful grace came to us through
Audrey that week; and she was able to bring me so close again to my children.
THE INVITATION
JON: In April 1999, Audrey contacted me and told me and Jane that she was
going to be in London on a short visit, and wouldn't it be marvelous if we
could all meet. I was working on yet another album for "Yes" in Vancouver,
and I said I would love to, but needed to check with the producer. Audrey
advised me to follow my heart. As I put the phone down I had to laugh at
myself for hesitating. My heart said, "you must be there," and of course I
wanted Jane by my side. You see, my kids have had a tough life so far,
without a steady family - they had a wandering nomadic musician for a
father, and a mother who has disowned them and hurt them so much. I knew
the week together in London would be important to them and to me. I could
not have envisaged what amazing things were about to take place when we all
got together.
JANE: The moment that Audrey called, I knew in my heart that we must go to
London, and that Divine Mother would make sure any obstacles that stood in
the way would be overcome. Jon's album would not be jeopardized, and in
truth I felt that the gifts Jon would receive by spending time with Audrey
in London would only make his work on the album when he returned much more
powerful. My only question was whether or not I should go as well, because
I have always been aware of how much Jon's children need him, and a part of
me felt I should let them have him all to themselves. So, I decided to
follow Audrey's advice to Jon, and looked in my heart for the answer. I
immediately knew that I should go to London too, because I love the
children, and want to be part of their family. I hoped that if I was there,
the children would be able to feel my love, and by sharing our innermost
selves with each other, we would become closer, and become a family. I knew
that amazing transformations would come, and that Audrey would bless us all
with Divine Mother's light and love, and hey, to be honest, I'll grab every
moment I can with Audrey! And of course, I was excited to see Jon's dream
of seeing his children in the light come true.
So, just as I thought, Divine Mother cleared every obstacle in our path,
and soon we were on the plane, practically giddy with excitement!!
DAY ONE
JANE: My heart was pounding as we went up the elevator to Audrey's ninth
floor apartment, and when she opened the door I felt such an explosion of
love, of thankfulness, of such supreme joy. I just looked at her face and
felt almost silly with happiness. Another great moment was when the kids
walked in, because only Deborah knew we were coming, and it was great to
surprise them. They greeted us with a mixture of laughter and tears, and as
we all hugged, I felt so unbelievably happy to be with them, and so filled
with anticipation of what was to come. I knew that all the children had a
lot of pain, sadness, anger and loneliness inside of them and that it
needed to come out, be expressed and be acknowledged. I also knew that each
had a great capacity for love, and each was a brilliant soul, and felt that
all would be well. I was hoping Jon could handle it, but as it turned out I
had no need to worry.
JON: On the first day we were able to let all our fears and frustrations
out and, with Audrey's guidance, the children shared how much they truly
missed me and were angry at me for not being there when they needed me. I
love them eternally, but I needed to hear their sorrow and pain and
acknowledge my role in their sadness. The fact is, when they first saw me,
I could see their sadness very clearly. Thank you Divine Mother for
allowing me to see my children's pain, because from then on we could begin
the healing process.
Audrey took Jade in the other room for a '"one-on-one". I know it was then
that I realized how blessed I was to have children that were ready for the
spiritual journey. They had open hearts and were able to make the
connection with Audrey. Both Jane and I were laughing and crying at the
same time. Jane in her wisdom was able to interact with my kids and help
them so naturally, with smiles and hugs and the loving way she has, and
they, in turn, love her to bits.
Deborah (who met Divine Mother in 1989) has been a mother to her siblings
for the past ten years. Last year, when I asked her, "Do you ever think of
Divine Mother?", she replied very sweetly, "Father, I think of Divine
Mother every second of every day". So, I really felt happy that she would
be able to have a '"one-on-one" with Audrey. I honestly didn't realize the
extent of the hardships she had suffered in the past, and, thanks to
Audrey, we were able to hug and cry and let it all out of our systems.
As for Damion, he had always kept everyone laughing with his wonderful wit
and charm. Yet Audrey was able to let him begin to look at his problems,
which were that he truly didn't really love himself, and felt so much
guilt. We all cried for him, to help him to love himself, but to no avail.
It was on the next day that things became clearer for him.
Well, Jade came out of her '"one-on-one" in sort of a "dream-state" - so
excited to tell us her experiences with the Divine Light and how Audrey
helped her to relax and be at peace with herself, and to trust her
instincts. We were overjoyed with her transformation. After this, we all
meditated, and had a great dinner together. This happened every day.
We want to thank Liz and Tad Kunimoto and Stephen Lee for their love, hugs,
smiles, and understanding; and for their beautiful sharing. The three of
them unselfishly prepared three meals a day for us so that we could spend
time with Audrey and not have to worry about going out for meals. Jane and
I slept like babies that night.
JANE: I was so proud of Jon. He let the children express all their emotions
of anger and pain and never once became defensive. He loves them so much,
and he really listened to them and acknowledged their feelings. I felt so
blessed to witness this incredible healing, and so happy to share my love
with the children, and with Jon.
Deborah and Jade made great strides that first day, and although Damion was
able to express his feelings as well, he still seemed "stuck." Little did
we know how incredibly "unstuck" he would become very soon! And indeed, as
Jon so beautifully stated, Jade came out of her "one-on-one" absolutely
glowing. She looked incredibly lighter, for Divine Mother had lifted so
much from her sweet soul and swept it away. Jade was smiling and giggling
that great Jade giggle.
DAY TWO
JON: The second day was even better. We met in the morning, again at the
apartment on the ninth floor where Audrey was staying. After our
meditation, it was down to intensives again. It really took a lot out of
us, emotionally. In the afternoon it was Deborah's turn to spend time alone
with Audrey in a "one-on-one" session. I felt blessed a thousand times
over, knowing that Deborah was so ready for her spiritual awakening. She
emerged from her private session with Audrey lighter than air, with a
sparkle in her eyes, hugging and laughing and at last at peace with herself.
Towards the end of the day, I was with Damion on the balcony. He had had a
hard day of it. In fact he was in tears, looking up at the sky. I went over
to him and hugged him, but he kept saying he felt so lost. I ran into the
room and looked at Audrey. She smiled, for she already knew what I was
going to ask. I said,"Could you see Damion for a "one-on-one?" "Yes", she
replied. At that moment we had been preparing to leave, but Jane told me to
stay with him. "He needs you now," she said. So off Damion went with Audrey
into the other room. Three hours later, he re-appeared, radiant, beaming
from ear to ear. Thank you Audrey - thank you, thank you Divine Mother. He
has not stopped beaming ever since. I'm crying as I write this - thank you,
thank you.
JANE: I think it was on the second day that Deborah really opened up and
shared all of her pain and frustrations. I felt like a Cheerleader,
cheering her on, because I had been aware of some of the things bothering
her, deep inside. I remember telling her over a year ago, that I sensed
that some of her sadness came from the fact that while she was taking care
of her siblings and friends, no one was nurturing her. I felt that she
needed and deserved to be nurtured, and held, and "filled up", rather than
constantly filling up others. She is so incredibly strong and capable, that
she often neglects herself while she looks after everyone else. And I was
sure that was a lonely place. So when she cried and told Jade and Damion
that she loved them but she couldn't be their mother anymore, I cried with
her, and was so proud of her. I just love her so much. And then she kept
going, and shared her anger over her mother, who seems to have done nothing
but treat her with spite, anger, disrespect and cruelty. I was in shock. I
thought I knew how horribly their mother had treated the children, but it
was far worse than I had imagined. So, with Divine Mother's light and love,
the healing really began for Deborah. Audrey was so gentle and so
beautiful, so nurturing. And for our part, we all hugged Deborah and let
her know we were all there for her. And then, Deborah got her "one-on-one"
and seemed so much more at peace with herself - very happy in a lovely, quiet way.
And then, of course, there was sweet Damion. You could see all day that
although he was doing the work, sharing his feelings and expressing his
love, he still seemed to be struggling. And so, as Jon has said, at the end
of the day when he and Damion were outside on the balcony, Jon could feel
Damion literally shaking. Jon asked, and Audrey took Damion in for a
"one-on-one". Jon wanted me to wait with him, but I said, "No, I think it
would mean a lot to your son if you waited here alone, so he can have his
dad all to himself when he comes out". So I went back to our hotel and had
a lovely meditation.
During the next three hours, Jon kept phoning me, saying with a tone of awe
in his voice "He's still in there!" I laughed and felt so happy for Damion!
Finally, there was a knock on the door, and there were Jon and Damion
standing in the hallway. And was Damion a sight to behold!!! Grinning from
ear to ear. I felt an incredible aura of love and happiness around him.
Gosh, his face was so amazing! His "one-on-one" experience with Audrey was
one of the most wonderful I have ever heard. What a blessing for him, and
for us all. I cannot tell you how changed Damion was, and has remained. I
was, and am, overjoyed. For myself, I felt as if Damion could finally
really start to let me in, to accept my love, and this was one of the
greatest gifts I received. I already felt close to the girls, and was
hoping that I could complete the circle with Damion. In that moment, I knew
my wish had come true!
DAY THREE
JON: By the time the third day came, we were all in seventh heaven. Damion
brought his friend Clare. We've known Clare for while, and remembered her
as very sweet and shy. Yet, to the delight of everyone she was telling
Audrey her thoughts, her problems, and eventually was to see most of them
fly away out of the window, thanks to the '"one-on-one" with Audrey. We
laughed a lot that day, and had very long meditations -- such a wonderful
atmosphere. It was also on this third day that Audrey blessed Jane and
myself with "one-on-one's". I must say, that I have never seen Divine
Mother so funny and animated, dancing with my Mom in the spirit. I just
could not stop laughing throughout most of my "one-on-one".
JANE: It was so great to see Clare come into the light. I had met her on
earlier trips and really felt she was special. When she arrived at Audrey's
you could barely hear her when she spoke. She was very shy and seemed to
shrink into herself. But when she came out of her "one-on-one", she was
bright, more self-assured, and very audible!! Such grace from Audrey and
Divine Mother. How very lucky we all are!
DAY FOUR
JON: The last day proved to be just as exciting as the others. My nephew,
Julian, who is very close to Damion, came over for the session. He had met
Audrey last year, and was the life and soul of party, with his happy smile.
He was so overjoyed to be with Audrey again that in no time at all, he too,
was having a '"one-on-one". His main reaction was that it was the "true
level". He uses the word 'level' in every sentence, but this was the "true
level".
Also with us that day, was a lady called Kat, a friend of the children. She
spent most of the time just smiling at Audrey and seemed happy to be there
just to witness everything. Later, she had us all in fits of laughter when
we decided to capture the event on film. Kat is a professional photographer
and, well, it was just the way she took the photo's - peeping around the
side of the camera at all of us surrounding Audrey. With such love and joy
in the air, we just couldn't stop giggling. I hope the photo's are all in
focus.
By four in the afternoon, Deborah had to go and finish moving into her new
apartment, with her new spiritual heart intact. Damion, beaming away, said
his fond farewells, and Julian on the "spiritual level" went with him. Only
Jade was left, looking a little sad. We asked how she was, and she told
Audrey it had been a tough year, with her real mother not being at all
friendly. Jade is such a sweet girl. Well, Audrey said, "come with me", and
off Jade went for a final boost of Mother's love, and she has never turned
back since.
JANE: Jon has described the day perfectly. What can I say? I soaked up
every second I could get. Jon and I gladly accepted every invitation for
breakfast and dinner with Audrey, Tad, Liz and Stephen, and basked in the
love and light. One of the wonderful bonuses of the trip was being able to
spend time sharing more intimately with Tad, Liz and Stephen - "the gang".
It was great to get to know them better, and I thank them for being so
gracious.
The last afternoon all the children left for various reasons and Jon and I
found ourselves alone with Audrey and "the gang". So we had a beautiful
long meditation. Earlier when the children were still there, Audrey had led
us all on a "forgiveness" meditation, and it was so beautiful for me, so
healing to wash the feet of all the people who had hurt me. I was what I
would call "blissed out". So when we then went into the long meditation, I
was humming with Love - just overwhelmed with feelings of love. Audrey
brings me so much light, so much happiness, so many beautiful gifts, that I
sometimes just think of her face and cry tears of gratitude and love. She
is Mother to me. I do not know a word that would adequately describe the
depth of my gratitude to her for spending that time with us in London, for
healing the wounds of so many beautiful souls, and for bringing my new
family back together. Hallelujah!!
JON AND JANE: Thank you Divine Mother , we were all so blessed to have the
opportunity to be close to the power of Audrey for those precious,
wonderful days. Dreams do come true, and prayers are always answered.....
JON: To see my children become spiritually awakened in this life is all I
could ever wish for. As I said to Stephen before we left, "I hope you have
the same happen to you". My hope is that everyone might find the light in
this lifetime. Thank you, thank you Divine Mother..........
JANE: Amen!!
JANE AND JON: Thank you Audrey for your tireless work in helping us toward
the light, we are so blessed to know you in this lifetime!!
