PURIFICATION THROUGH DEMONSTRATION: As we follow through with the demonstration of our Christ Self in action, we achieve, in turn, greater purification of our soul. As we purify our mortal expression, we become, in turn, pure channels to demonstrate yet greater talents of the I Am.
In our meditations this week, let us focus our efforts on understanding purification or transmutation of the mortal self through demonstration of the Christ Self within each of us. In these Latter Days, demonstration and purification go hand in hand. For each new purifying influx of energy leads to new I Am demonstrations. Each cycle is a new step in Sananda’s redescent in his light body for the Second Coming. Also, we are anchoring greater light on the planet in order to hold its force field steady during periods of planetary cleansing and transmutation.
How do we go about doing this work? How do we prepare ourselves for greater light-body demonstrations? How do we make the most of an influx of spiritual energies, so as to achieve these goals?
As We Give, So We Receive
In a meditation on New Year’s Eve in 1987, my high Self gave me an important key. Since the year was coming to a close, I had been evaluating all that I had accomplished in 1987, and had been searching for clues by which to guide my efforts in the new year. As my light body overshadowed me and expanded my thinking, I received the phrase “purification through demonstration.”
“Wait a minute,” you might say. “We can only achieve spiritual demonstrations through maintaining a high level of purification.” Yes, this is true. But there is also another angle to spiritual demonstration that works for our self-purification as well; that is, in the very act of demonstrating, in the performing of our I Am talents externally, we automatically are changed, purified, transformed, brought into higher states of consciousness.
Here is another way of putting it, which I am sure you are familiar with: As we heal others, we too are healed; as we help bring enlightenment to others, we too are enlightened. As we give, so we receive.
What is the key here? Willingness. Willingness to go out on a limb, to open up to the I Am Self, to surrender to the cosmic, creative force of Spirit, to take that first step of self-sacrifice of our personal will to the will of God. Once we make that conscious effort, we open up the channels of I Am demonstration. In turn, these channels of demonstration provide the very means by which we reach deep into ourselves to transmute the mortal aspects of our being — mind, body and soul.
Let’s look at an example of this process. Over the past year, virtually all of us have been faced with difficult challenges, both personal and planetary. The true challenge, as we all know, lies in our ability to demonstrate cosmic principles, to put high Self love into action, in the face of the horrendous cleansings that beset our lives on Earth as we raise our planet into the fourth dimension.
Now, at the same time, the Hierarchy has challenged us this past year to take on the mantle of greater responsibility as I Am Nation citizens; to show greater willingness, and less resistance, to being the high Self in action; to take more initiative in coordinating with them to anchor the Second Coming program. In other words, they have asked us to grow up spiritually, to put away the things of our spiritual childhood and to express the maturity of our Christ demonstration.
In these ways I too have been challenged. Yet, in my self-evaluation on New Year’s Eve, I realized that my primary challenges this past year did not come in the form of personal crises, or in meditations of self-contemplation wherein I was grappling internally with my soul record, seeking to transmute it. Rather, my challenges were presented to me in the form of opportunities for public outreach and teaching. Through a series of media interviews, seminars and lectures, Spirit placed me in situations where I was constantly being challenged to express my I Am Self in a very overt, publicly demonstrable way.
For instance, in interviews, time after time I fielded questions covering the entire gamut of the spiritual program, thus challenging me at every moment to maintain a high state of alertness and intunement, and to adhere to spiritual wisdom in my responses. I dealt with the receptive and the skeptical alike. I was even challenged to hold the focus of light and love in the face of mean and malicious attacks from persons who were either hysterical or totally closed off to the spiritual message. Over and over again I was challenged by Spirit to sacrifice my personal desires and needs, so that Spirit’s desires and needs could be channeled through me to serve the highest good of all people involved.
Actually, over a period of several months I was so busy that I had basically no time at all for periods of spiritual retreat, where I could spend time in study, meditation or self-examination. I was on the go continually, hardly able to catch my breath from one engagement to the next.
After a while, to my delight, I began to notice a by-product of all this public activity. I was being transformed! I could not open up to the high Self demonstration, or channel the energy broadcasts and messages of etheric and celestial masters, without myself being changed, purified, transmuted in the process. My soul and personality were being cleansed, my weaknesses and fears were being decrystallized, and the strengths and talents of my I Am were being anchored to a higher degree than ever before.
I had asked only to serve Spirit’s will. I had not sought any personal gratification or glory or reward. Yet, it is cosmic law that as we commit our lives to Spirit, we can’t help but receive of the full bounty of our Sonship with God. Again, as we give, so we receive.
This is what is meant by purification through demonstration: Through demonstration, or through action, Spirit works purification in our lives. But we must be willing to take that first step towards demonstration, to express love wherever we are.
Selfless Service
How does this become relevant to all of us of this meditation network right now? In these Latter Days, as we experience more intense cycles of spiritual influx, the energies will stimulate further waves of purification of mind, body and soul amongst all on Earth.
The purpose of this cleansing, of course, is to prepare us for a new magnitude of light-body demonstration. The spiritual masters, as well as our own high Selves, stand ready now to burst through the veil of our mortal consciousness. Spirit has prepared the demonstrations and is seeking the outlets, the grounding rods, the light workers on Earth who are willing to commit themselves to this responsibility. It is time to act, to put love into action through selfless service.
Where will you serve? Ask Spirit. What will you be called upon to demonstrate? Have faith that Spirit will reveal to you all you need to know, and at the time you need to know it.
We are joined with the Hierarchy, as coworkers, to bring about the transmutation of the planet and the full rending of the seventh veil. Our next step in this cycle is to demonstrate, to put into practice, all we have been prepared and purified to do. This doesn’t mean necessarily that we will be called upon to give lectures or seminars or to perform our spiritual talents before masses of people. For our special service may be behind the scenes, seeding the mass consciousness in so many silent ways, or holding the force field for others who require our physical and spiritual support in order to step forth in their public functions.
But it does mean that we are to take a new initiative to demonstrate our Christ Self and to unify completely with the Christ demonstrations of all others.
In my self-evaluation on New Year’s Eve, 1987, I saw clearly that the key to the further purification of my own soul lies in giving myself selflessly to serve the will and the needs of Spirit, who serves all equally. I realized that it was at those times when I was putting selfless love into action, that I felt the highest intunement with my spiritual Self, that I experienced the greatest harmony with the universe all around me. Yes, when I let go completely and let God work through me, without thought of reward, I achieved my greatest level of service to mankind; I was reaching my true potential as a Christ being.
Through such demonstration, we all will be purified. As we are purified, our demonstrations are greater, more effective, have more lasting impact for the program.
The hierarchal call to action, to be love in action, is there, awaiting our response. We each are being given the opportunity to serve more fully at this critical time in the transmutation of man. Let’s take up this call to demonstrate. Our I Am Self demonstrations, in turn, will pave the way for millions of souls who are seeking avenues — spiritual examples — to follow in order to purify themselves for the Second Coming. Demonstrating our divine love in action now, will show man of Earth the way of purification into the light.
