Hello & Blessings,
My name is Dana Duryea. I remember as Spirit, before being born, telling my mother in her sleep that was the name that I wanted. That is because our name reflects why we are here. Funny, but Dana in Sanskrit means cultivating generosity or to give, and here instead I am asking for you to give.
I have been a Benedictine monk for over 14 years, but I am also a minister & Bishop within Celebrating Life Ministries. https://www.celebratinglifeministries.com/home/Index.cfm
While I have taken refuge with the Tai Situpa, tutored with Native Americans and currently lead a non-profit religious organization called the Foundation for Spiritual Development, my focus has always been knowing God and being that in all places, times & situations. http://beingatcause.org
No doubt, that has been my postulate since I arrived on this planet, but like all here, I've had to take a circuitous route to arrive to this inner realization. Once I realized that I could not survive being that in my family or in school, I made a decision at 5 1/2 years old to make it all go away. Thus, I made my guides (angels) that I spoke with everyday go away, I made my vision (to see the truth & energy) go away, I made my natural ability of healing touch to go away and most importantly I made God disappear, all behind a door I closed so that I could be 'normal' here.
Luckily I, like all, found ways to sneak tastes of these truths. I found access to God and my natural psychic/healing abilities through animals, nature, Christmas lights, music & being athletic. While others seemed to be happy in some kind of possession, kinship or accomplishment, I simply felt the joy of God when just being able to touch these things (like being a 5-year old again). But unfortunately, I still kept that door closed, my heart tight and so apprenticed in life as a doer. I became 'good' at academics, music & sports, learning to compete, rather than come from the joy I felt just Being, in all these wonderful games.
Fortunately, I planned wisely as a Spirit, so no matter how much or what I wanted to 'do', God had a better plan and things would crash and start again, but fresh and clearer. I came to understand it as my way of learning what we all do to avoid the truth of who we are, how much we are loved & what we are truly responsible for, during this short play.
That being said, I experienced some very big miracles that reshaped my life . I experienced bringing my grandmother back from the dead, helping my father leave his coma and die, dissolving cancer out of a friend's body, seeing & hearing many loved ones who have died describe to me their journey, reasons & learning from the 'other side'. I have experienced so many real miracles, so many stories of 'waking up', so many interventions of angels, it's now normal in my life and why I teach others how to wake up again, but the teacher is always still the student. I am being asked again at this point in my life to commit to letting the God that heals, to be present in me so that I can support others to heal as well.
As I mentioned, early in life I found God through being athletic & I particularly loved basketball. It was safe because no one got hurt, you could use a variety of gifts and there were rules making sure no one abused another (all unlike real life) that it filled me with such joy to play. Unfortunately as I grew so did the pressure from others to play to win.
Drawing upon past-lives as a warrior I learned to compete to the point I was able to play at the collegiate level during my early 20's. To do that I learned to sacrifice my body by taking charges from opposing players, diving for loose balls & constantly hitting the floor to give 120 percent. During that time I incurred many, many physical injuries - all that healed in a short time, but one.
I had continuously landed on my right elbow as I hit the hardwood floor and unknown to me that blow always transferred up and into my right shoulder (at that time I saw myself as right handed), creating a wearing away of the cartilage there. I continued that tradition of landing on or overusing my shoulder through all my other sports & work activities: martial arts, cycling, softball, volleyball, yoga, farming, gardening, construction, etc.
As my Spirit asked me to return to God in the many decades since I was happy to let go of the competition, but I still tried to 'do' everything on my own. God made it clear that strategy was no longer possible when I had my shoulder dislocate in 2005 (at same time I was becoming a monk). Surgery was successful, but unbeknownst to me or my doctor I had bone spurs that did not allow me to freely move my arm so I developed frozen shoulder. Those bone spurs eventually sawed through my bicep in 2008 and I had to have a 2nd shoulder surgery. It was then I learned I had no cartilage left in my shoulder.
As my ministry and healing work began to start in earnest, I found I couldn't raise my arm for long periods of time. And if I did, I had severe pain for days in my shoulder & back. In 2011 I went to one of the shoulder specialists for the SF Giants to see if there was any way we could shave more bone spurs away so I could move my arm with less pain. From my MRI, they told me I had the shoulder of a 90 year and the only solution they could recommend was a complete shoulder replacement, which at that time was not recommended as the technique was not usually successful, often creating more pain. So I just hunkered down, became left handed in most things, took lots of ibuprofen & aimed at intentionally trying to grow back the cartilage as my solution.
Flash forwarding to late fall 2018, I was in so much daily pain I asked God if we could do something to remedy it. I truly wish to do this healing work, so many miracles kept happening, but I needed help. I was guided to see a different set of doctors. Upon my first meeting gazing at my new MRI, the new doctor met me laughing saying he never had seen such a thing. I asked, "Didn't the cartilage grow back?". He laughed more and swung the screen in my view. Instead of cartilage, I had grown 2 huge bone spurs! One was on top of the humerus and wouldn't let me raise my arm above 60 degrees without hitting my clavicle. The second grew on the interior of the humerus and was almost double the diameter of the bone. When I laid on my right side it would push all my upper ribs out. Both had me going bone on bone whenever I used my arm, but fortunately kept me from destroying my shoulder capsule, so that I could still have a shoulder replacement - a different miracle than I'd hoped for, but a miracle none-the-less! I was told that medical advancements had happened such that shoulder replacements were now as successful as knee replacements. So my adventure in my next step with God began.
This year, on April 23, 2019, I underwent a complete shoulder replacement and the surgery was 100% successful. I now for the first time in 15 years have no pain in my shoulder!!! Thank you God for everything!!!!
Unfortunately, God & I had more to talk about. I developed a secondary staph infection, and was suffering from a concussion (maybe from the surgery table and Intubation) that had me make a visit to the emergency room at the hospital and kept me sick at home for a month. Fortunately, I have an army of healers determined to get me back to my path and recovery is slowly working, where I am stronger and almost ready to do this last 15-20 years of healing work before I go back home to God.
Two things happened that have made me write this letter to you:
1st - during my anesthesia I actually received 5 teachings (seen as beams of light) about my life, the nature of reality, healing, Truth & Love that are the goals of my next steps in doing God's healing & teaching. I woke up from the anesthesia remembering these teachings (in the picture below). As a result of embodying these teachings I hope to bring some light to the confusion that keeps being taught here on the planet. So I recently took a vow to step forward to do that work (picture also below) and am almost ready to fulfill those steps. My intention, regardless of any action on your part, is that you receive a healing in your life, family, relationships, illness, doubt, fears & addictions as you read this. Please receive it now through these 2 transmissions:
2nd - I gratefully thank God for the technology/science that made this happen and I fully intend to pay off all my debt with Joy. That being true, I had no idea how much money this healing would actually cost me. I never worried about the money as I've gone through all the steps, all the appointments and all the tests, as I knew it was God's path for me to not only heal my shoulder, but to heal my heart. I have been surprised, however, to find that so far my medical costs to accomplish this have been roughly $216,000, with more after-surgery needs/costs still coming in. My health insurance has covered the major portion of the bills, but not all, and what I have paid out of my own pocket has drained my life savings. So I find myself still with medical costs of $26,000+, in current bills or past bills paid on credit cards, that I must still pay and I currently don't have the funds to do so. I have recently been made aware that I will need $10,000 of out-of-network medical care over the next 6 months that I need to raise funds for as well. I am always willing to help others, but I have found it hard to receive in my life, so my angels have asked me to reach beyond my fears around this and to be open to the donations and blessings you might be willing to help me with. I do not expect you or anyone to help me pay this debt, but I was instructed by my angels that to give, one must also receive. So, if you are guided to make any donation, no matter how large or small, I am deeply grateful to you. Thank you.
And if you receive any healing or inspiration from reading this I will be grateful to God - All That Made us.
Love & Blessings,
Dana
