PATH TO LIGHT: Jonna Gill
A RAINBOW AROUND THE SUN By Jonna Gill
It was a bright, cloudless, sunny day in June 2013. I was taking a walk on the 3-mile nature trail near my mother’s home. It had always been one of my favorite trails as it cuts through the woods and then past an old rustic red barn. I loved the old red barn and was always anxious to turn the bend on the trail to walk past it. On this day, just as I turned the bend, I saw that a very large snake (about 6 feet long) was blocking my path. This was quite unusual; in fact it had never happened before. At that moment I had the choice of either jumping over the snake, (which I was not going to do) or to wait patiently until it had passed along in front of me into the grassy field. So I waited, stunned and barely breathing. Once the snake had passed, I continued a few yards farther along the trail until I realized that I had become uncharacteristically tired, to the point where I felt that I would faint. I didn’t know whether I could make it the 3 miles to the end of the trail, so I decided to turn back and return to my car, which meant passing by where the snake had been. I was alone, but when I crossed over where the snake had passed, I suddenly heard a very distinct voice say, “Look up at the Sun!” It was midday so I had to look practically straight up, and lo and behold, there was a brilliant full-spectrum rainbow around the sun. I was stunned. I had never seen such a phenomenon before. And there I stood in awe, staring openly at the vision of the magnificent Sun, surrounded by an incredible rainbow in a cloudless blue sky. This marked my first special experience with the Sun and there were more to come. . . .
I was raised in Pennsylvania. My father moved us from the city to a place we liked to call “the middle of nowhere.” This middle of nowhere came equipped with bounteous apple trees, bunnies, deer, and your occasional skunk. The kind of place where one could grow up innocently. Not much happened on our little street. I was enrolled in Catholic school at a young age. My life in spirit started with the four C’s: Catechism, Communion, Confirmation, and Confession. By the time I finished my senior year in high school, though I loved Catholic school, I believed that Catholicism had taken me as far as it could for the moment. I felt that there was something more to learn, to experience, about God. I knew there was a God out there, a really big God that was bursting at the seams and spilling out over the structures and confines of dogmatic thinking. Around this same time I had suffered some personal disappointments, and in a place of teenage despair, I asked God with every fiber of my being to do with me what he willed, to show me his face. As soon as I had said this, I heard what sounded like the creaking of a very large ancient door opening, and then WHISH, I was off on a spiritual journey of discovery into the simplicity and complexities of God. I became inflamed with a love for God, and for a short time at a considerably young age, I became a zealot. Over the next few years I studied world religions. I practically ingested books on metaphysics and spirituality, finding that God lived outside as well as inside of “the box.” Up to this point, besides realizing that I had totally fallen in love with God, I knew that the only reason for anyone’s being on this planet was truly for the cause of spirit. To awaken the knowing of God within oneself again.
In the year 2010, I had been urged by a magnificent being named Hieronymus, to visit the magic mountain—Mount Shasta in California. I enrolled in a seminar to be held at Stewart Mineral Springs on Mount Shasta by Dr. Pillai, teacher and sidda master. Several of the participants in the seminar were students of Dr. Mitchell Gibson. A few of these students advised me to read up on some of his teachings. He was giving two seminars in my area, which I attended. I had two subsequent personal consultations with him regarding my spirituality and after telling him of the event about the rainbow around the sun, he gave me an exercise that helps enable one to get in touch with one’s own divinity. I started to practice the exercise one evening in June of 2013.
When I began, I suddenly felt a strong presence in the room. A clairaudient ability had started to awaken in me several years ago, along with the ability to sense the presence of a being in a room. When I feel a presence strongly, I always ask the being for its name. When I asked this time, I heard “Amen . . . Aten. I asked the being to repeat his name and I heard clearly, “Amenhotep -Akhenaten . . . Akhenaten. I am somewhat embarrassed to admit that at the time I did not consciously know who Akhenaten was except that he was Egyptian. I did not continue practicing the exercise until the following month. When I started again, the same thing happened. I felt a very strong presence in the room, and then asked for a name. “Akhenaten, Akhenaten,” the being answered. And then I heard these words, “Look to the Sun, it is all about the Sun!”
Exactly three days after this last encounter, I was looking at the morning light as it came through the window, as usual, but this time it was different. This time the light was filled with visible particles that sparkled and seemed alive and were of the most gorgeous golden hue. I felt a compulsion to get up and look at the Sun to see what was going on. As soon as I made eye contact, Wham! Information started flying at me at warp speed. I started getting an intense download of information explaining how the Sun opens and energizes all the chakras, creates the light body, and a plethora of other information that was coming at me at such a velocity that I thought I would be smacked back into the wall. After the information download, something happened that English words cannot describe, but I will try by saying I could see beyond a veil, and then had a eureka moment. “God is the Sun! God is the Sun! God is right there looking at us all through the Sun!” That is my crude description of what I felt, for in the moment that I was able to see, I was tossed into a knowing that is beyond words. I was given a glimpse into another realm beyond the physical Sun and felt an overflow of love.
The day after the experience, I started to remember a discussion that Dr. Gibson had given about sun-gazing at the end of one of his seminars. I then did an Internet search on anything that he had said or printed about the Sun at that time. I found the Compilation of Articles, Studies and Research from Dr. Mitchell Gibson, Prof. Hilton Hotima, Wayne H. Purdin, Vinny Pinto, Sunlight and the Miracle of Ages. I wanted to know more, more, and more. There were references to Gene Savoy Sr. in the compilation of articles. I researched him and was led to the Jamilian University, the study of Cosolargy. I was amazed by the program and felt intuitively that it was “Pure Religion” from an ancient source, and this, I knew, was rare. I contacted the university and after testing, received an invitation to study. The knowledge of the sun has greatly impacted my life and opened up a whole new road on this journey of the Soul. For this I feel the utmost gratitude.
I thought while writing this story, that if the average person reads it, equipped with snakes, rainbows, and visits from ancient beings, they would probably think I was a few slices short of a loaf, as they say. I feel here however, that my story will be read by those who understand the process of spirit and know how unique one’s journey can be toward the light. So this is my story. Vive Le Soleil!
(A thank you to the beings, in-body and out, that help lead us toward the path to the spiritual Sun!)
