Brandon Bays is the bestselling author of The Journey. She also runs The Journey Weekend Intensives and is also the author of The Journey for Kids: Liberating Your Child’s Shining Potential and Freedom Is. Brandon is a compelling and innovative teacher in the mind-body-healing field.
Brandon Bays deepest prayer is that, “everyone will come to realise that inside them is a boundless love, a joy, a freedom that is beyond their wildest imaginings and that everybody is capable, no matter what their age, of getting in touch with that joy.”
Brandon’s story of being diagnosed with a tumour the size of a basketball and then remarkably healing herself within six and a half weeks, to be pronounced tumour free, without surgery or drugs is spreading all over the world. She has inspired countless others to begin their own healing journey.
“I had a fierce longing to know God, to know Truth my whole life and the ferocity of that longing was so strong that finally it gave me a wake-up call. And that wake-up call came in the form of a serious illness. It got me to finally just stop and go on my own spiritual journey. It got me to give myself permission to find out who I am.” Brandon explains.
What I have discovered is that nobody can do it for you. You must go on your own process of self-discovery.
“The illness had catapulted me, very rapidly, to Self-knowing. In that process I uncovered a means of direct access to the soul and direct access to the cell memories and the ability to clear them up so that the body and the whole being can come to a place of peace inside.”
Brandon used her experience and Self-discovery to map a path for others, yet she explains that it is in fact a pathless path. “Everybody is capable of clearing out the blocks and participating in their own healing journey and discovering their own truth and wisdom. What I have discovered is that nobody can do it for you. You must go on your own process of self-discovery.”
She continues, “Ultimately the only thing that could give me this is Truth itself. So that is what my wake up call gave me – recognition of who I am and a clearing out of who I am not. It is a path of awakening. The pathless path – that gives you the ability to open into the incident.”
This discovery did not come easily to Brandon. She had many challenging experiences along the way. “I put out a prayer that I wanted to discover the purpose of my life, to be pure joy and to help myself and others to awaken to this greatness. And you can’t argue how God answers your prayer. When my house burnt down – I had to find out that I am not my material lifestyle, I am not my house. Getting ill, I had to learn I am not my body. With my relationships leaving I had to learn that I am not my love life, I’m not my motherhood, I am not a lover.”
Brandon had to learn, “that people come and people go and lifestyles come and lifestyles go, and illnesses come and illnesses go. Yet there is a love that is here before the body is born and it is here through the whole lifestream and will be here long after this body perishes.”
Brandon’s love affair with the Truth is infectious, presenting a glimpse into a boundless world of love. “It is Eternal Love which we all truly are, that is a love worth making a marriage with. It was about that time that I decided to make my marriage with Truth. Truth had been true to me when all else had forsaken me. That is why I can do nothing else but this Journey. I am in love with this love that was revealed to me and my life is about serving that Truth and helping others to awaken to it. I can’t imagine that there is anything else I could do, but serve Truth.”
