Jack Kornfield
Dear Sara,
I am grateful for your response. We completely understand how busy Jack is, and that a radio show doesn't fit into his schedule.
What matters most to us is his endorsement of the concept: that we as individuals can accept the challenge of accepting personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas by January 17, 2017, or some other reasonably compelling date. It would be extraordinarily powerful for Jack himself to accept such a challenge.
This is a decision that can occur in a moment; time is not a factor. This is what Lynn most humbly extends: the offer for Jack to join in accepting this challenge. With this shift in mentality, lives transform. Will Jack accept?
Looking forward to your reply,
Kristen Coury

Dear Jack,
May I take a few moments of your time to talk with you about a teacher whom some call a Bodhisattva, an inspired, committed soul who is literally working to manifest the Divine Plan on Earth? Lynn McGonagill is the Founder and Teaching Channel of the Lightworkers Healing Method, and author of the book The Lightworkers Healing Method: BE Who Your Soul Wants You To Be. The Lightworkers Healing Method is an Angelically guided multi-dimensional energy healing method with the exceptional goal of aligning us with our soul plan.
This is our third attempt to reach you, and perhaps until now we have not done a good job in explaining what our teacher is like. Lynn has a 20-year practice in vipassana, which she developed in part by memorizing your series of The Inner Art of Meditation, as well as 10 years in tonglen and working with the lojong slogans. She undertook a 3-year, 3-month and 3-day retreat, living by the Fourteen Mindfulness Trainings of the Thich Nhat Hanh Order of the Phoenix, which she ultimately adopted as her lifestyle. Through the classes she teaches, Lynn leads others to open themselves to their Spiritual purpose, to be who they came to Earth to be, to live the lives their souls came here to live, and to help others do the same.
Since all of us truly wish to be Bodhisattvas, the purpose of her life's work is to help all beings achieve that single goal. When all beings become Bodhisattvas, our purpose is served. We can also say that the Divine Plan will have manifested on Earth; the meaning is identical. This is Lynn's life mission - to help a critical mass of people live their own life missions. In this way, the overall Divine Plan will manifest. By working together, each doing our part, the world transforms. We also believe, Jack, that this is your most deep and true desire.

By working together, each doing our part, the world transforms. We also believe, Jack, that this is your most deep and true desire.
There are two unusual elements of Lynn's commitment to help all beings become Bodhisattvas, which seem to be difficult for most people to believe but which are crucial to understand.
- She has made a personal commitment to do everything that is needed to help all beings become Bodhisattvas (manifest the Divine Plan on Earth). Shared responsibility does not work; everyone assumes someone else will do something to make it happen. Most people assume, for example, that it is surely up to someone else to have all beings become Bodhisattvas, not up to them as individuals. Therefore they do not put their full effort into all beings becoming Bodhisattvas; they simply "wish" for it. These wishes do, of course, help a tiny bit - but it is not the same as an all-out effort to do everything possible to lift all beings up into that enlightened state. Feel for yourself the difference this makes. Say, out loud, "May all beings become Bodhisattvas." Then say, out loud, "I accept personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas." The second is a much more powerful, and also much more frightening, statement.
- Because work expands to fill the time allowed, it is important to have a deadline. Feel for yourself the difference this second step makes. Say, out loud, "I accept personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas." Then say, out loud, "I accept personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas by January 17, 2017." There is no doubt that you will feel the difference in urgency created by this second step.
Dear Jack, you are too important, too respected, and too significant to overlook how crucial your participation is. Since Lynn has already accepted personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas by January 17, 2017, I am compelled to ask if you will stand with her in this mission. Will you also accept personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas by January 17, 2017?
Because of your importance in the Buddhist community, I must ask even more of you. Will you encourage others to do the same? Will you Stand With Us on as large a stage as you are willing to share? If you are willing to be a guest on Lynn's radio show, that is wonderful, and we will bend our schedule to suit yours. If you are willing to publicly endorse the work she is doing, that is beautiful. If you are willing to recommend Lynn and her work to other important spiritual leaders, that is an extremely empowering gift for which we would be most grateful. We are deeply and humbly grateful for whatever you are willing to do in terms of Standing With Us.
We believe that Lynn's life's work supports your own: that like Lynn, you have already accepted personal responsibility for all beings becoming Bodhisattvas. We know your message resonates strongly with her students and listeners. Since time is of the essence, there is not much time left for this important endorsement to occur. Dear Jack, it is now in your hands. Will you help us?
With deep humility, awareness of the reality of freedom from suffering, and full faith in the Divine Plan,

Dear Jack
I am writing to you with a radio interview opportunity. Lynn McGonagill is the Founder and Teaching Channel of the Lightworkers Healing Method™, and author of the book The Lightworkers Healing Method: BE Who Your Soul Wants You To Be, released last year. Lynn leads workshops in which she lovingly and carefully instructs others in this comprehensive healing method nationwide, recently at Kripalu and the Institute of Noetic Sciences. Of particular interest to you may be that Lynn has a 20 year practice in vipassana, which she developed by memorizing your The Inner Art of Meditation series, as well as 10 years in tonglen and working with the lojong slogans. She undertook a 3 year, 3 month and 3 day retreat, living by the Fourteen Mindfulness Trainings of the TNH Order of the Phoenix, which she ultimately adopted as her lifestyle.
Lynn hosts a radio show, also called BE Who Your Soul Wants You To Be, which is part of the Dreamvisions 7 Radio Network. D7RN has both terrestrial and internet-based syndicated affiliates and the show reaches over 1 million listeners in 125 countries. We would be delighted if you would be our guest in July or later. We could prerecord our show at your convenience. It will air approximately 10 times over the month that follows the initial broadcast. Other guests this year include Dr. Bernie Siegel, Dr. Gay Hendricks, Alan Cohen and Dr. Hank Wesselman.
Lynn's vision is to have guests with similar values - guests like you - speak about whatever is important to them as long as it's consistent with her goal of helping people live their soul purpose. The hope is that these shows will inspire listeners to get unstuck, take the next step, and move forward on their own individual life paths. Like the Dalai Lama, we can all commit to helping everyone live a life of joy. Because work expands to fill the time allowed, it is important to have a deadline in mind. Lynn has committed to personally help all beings discover and live their soul plans by January 17, 2017.
The Lightworkers Healing Method™ is an Angelically guided multi-dimensional energy healing method with the exceptional goal of aligning us with our soul plan. This is a teachable, learnable skill. We learn to be who our souls want us to be and help others do the same. Deep, lasting joy is the natural result. This profound healing method works in all arenas of life: physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, financial and interpersonal. Nothing is off limits. What's more, as a critical mass of us begins to live our life plans, the overall Divine Plan can manifest into reality, truly realizing Heaven right here on Earth. As we each do our part, the world transforms.
If you would like to get a feel for Lynn's style, we suggest you listen to her interview with Alan Cohen, included on the page of recent interviewees here: http://lightworkersmethod.com/mediaLHMRadio.html
Or you can watch a demonstration of the method here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOCOhJUMNe0 - a demonstration of healing physical pain - "Where's God in all of this?"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bv5rhXMavs8 - a demonstration of healing physical and emotional pain - "Why do bad things happen to good people?"
Jack, you have already been an inspiration to so many. We would be honored if you would share your wisdom and vision with our listeners and do your part to help bring the Divine Plan to manifested reality by 1/17/17. Will you be a guest on Lynn's show sometime this summer?
Light for your path,

Dear Kristin,
My apologies for the delay in getting back to you. Jack had wanted to hold off responding to see if some time opened up, but alas, it has not, and he must now decline your invitation. Thank you for thinking of him, and best wishes to you with your good work.
Warmly,
Sara
Jack Kornfield
Dear Liz
Thank you for being willing to pass this along to Mr. Kornfield.
I know that Jack is inundated with these types of requests, but my hope is that you yourself will read BE Who Your Soul Wants You To Be: The Lightworks Healing Method (attached). You will quickly see that it is the real deal and worth Mr. Kornfield's time. If you feel about it the way I believe you will, you will want to ask him to read it and write an endorsement.
BE Who Your Soul Wants You To Be: The Lightworks Healing Method is a channeled how-to manual for this unique system of spiritually guided energy healing. It arose from Lightworkers Healing Method™'s core curriculum workshops, which consistently produce capable healers. This is something that anyone can learn to do. Channeling Divine healing is not a gift; it is a teachable, learnable skill. I am personally both a student of and a Lightworker of the Lightworkers Healing Method™, and can vouch for its miraculous healing abilities both in my life and in the lives of others around me.
The Lightworks Healing Method has an exceptional goal for an energy healing modality: to align us with our soul's life purpose. It is both a spiritual growth vehicle and a healing system. The Lightworkers Healing Method™ improves the present by working with both past and future lives as well as higher-dimension Guides, Angels, and Lightbeings in a unique and powerful process.
The author, Lynn McGonagill, is my Teacher and the channel for this information. She is the physical-dimension Founder of the Lightworks Healing Method. Higher-dimension healers taught her this system of Divine energy healing in a process that was triggered by her brother's death in January 1990. To date, she has joyfully invested twenty-two years in training with higher-dimension healing beings, twelve years in practicing the Lightworkers Healing Method™ full-time with thousands of clients, and five years in lovingly teaching the method to others.
BE will be published by Morgan-James Publishing in September, with an eBook out in July. If you read the manuscript, you will find it to be well-written, life-changing, and a book that is important to share with those who are ready. Our mission is to bring as many people to mastery in the Lightworks Healing Method as possible. The larger goal is to bring the Divine Plan to pass on Earth, by reaching critical mass in the numbers of souls following their individual life plans. That's all! The missing link to bring this book to the attention of those who are waiting for it is the endorsement of well-known, respected, and credible people like Jack Kornfield.
I know that Mr. Kornfield's time is precious, but this is important for all of us. Will you please preview the attached manuscript to see for yourself that it's worth his time? We are actively editing and although it is not quite ready for public consumption, it is drawing near to that mark. Overlapping deadlines create this situation, but you have my word that the entire book will be edited to top quality by the time we go to print.
We need to submit a final manuscript to our publisher on April 15th and will be honored to be able to include Jack's endorsement in that package. As we each do our part, the world transforms. We would be grateful for your help in this worthy endeavor.
Please thank Jack for being a voice of Truth, for already shining the light on the paths of so many, and for making a difference in the world. And, if you choose to do so, thank YOU - for giving BE Who Your Soul Wants You To Be to Jack for his blessing.
Light for your path,
