I posted an article many months ago on my site addressing the issue of Jerry's cancer and It's been quite the little controvesy creator. The days here just following his death have seen my traffic increase by almost 1000 a day just due to this article.

There's definitely two camps. One who is using Jerry's cancer and now his death to point accusingly to claim: "See...this whole thing is a scam." Then there's the other camp that says; "The only thing this proves is that Jerry is/was human and that knowing about this and actually applying it are two different things", and/or, the message inherent in LOA actually goes much deeper than trying to get what I want...more like, "LOA is one of the best teachers around for acceptance of what is".

Looking back, it was mentioned many times how Jerry's diet was purposefully tailored 'for good health.' He apparently lived on a diet high in salmon and spinach....clearly an indicator imo of someone who worries about health and thus holds a belief that a specific diet is necessary to counter the threats to good health that exist otherwise.

If anything, Jerry's death demonstrates how deep some of our beliefs go even in the face of other beliefs that might appear to be contrary...if even the spouse of the one doing this channeling...and the one who was supposedly mostly responsible for the summoning of the specific message had difficult applying these teachings, this indicates that these teachings are not so much about 'being perfect' but more about doing the best we can.

IN the end it seems to me that Jerry went out applying the most important message inherent in these teachings and that is that regardless of what our reality is presenting, acceptance is possible. IMO, Unconditional acceptance of present reality is what the best LOA teachings offer us.

Most believe they'll be happy when they get their stuff, but if they can accept their present moment, they'll be happy before they get their stuff....and then as a result of their alignment, they'll get their stuff..(even though at this point, it's really not all that important anyway).

Can't help but wonder with all of Jerry's pondering and curiosity if he'd reached the point of exhausting the questions he could ask from this physical vantage point. I'm expecting some interesting channeling to be coming from Esther...lots of input from Jerry I'm thinking.
