Three Stages of Man’s Evolution

/

Channeled via Nada-Yolanda

 

ONE OF THE SPECIFIC GOLDEN RULES that may be utilized in every set of circumstances is the fact that man has three appearances on his planet which can control and grade him properly as to what stage he is in. The first, primitive set of circumstances in any field of endeavor or in any conscious application of theoretic planning and practice is the struggle against or fight with his opponent or his opposite side. The second place or gauge is his neutrality or state of truce with that which is his opponent. The final or third phase of his spirituality as well as his physical practice and purpose is compatibility, cooperation and coordination. . . .

The third state of evolutionary growth of man with man, of society with society, of nation with nation has yet to come. The signs and marks of the age are prevalent in this department as well as in all other departments too. But they have not reached that perfected level as yet. They have not reached the point where man can take the gauge of which I now speak and say to himself most honestly: we are only, in some cases, at the second stage of evolution, and finally must come to the third stage of complete cooperation and coordination. . . .

In your own evolvement and growth, relationships and problems, seek to analyze and to grade yourselves according to this specific golden rule. One: primitive, antagonistic. Two: peace at a cost, with a truce or with some sort of basic understanding and leveling off and sense of equality derived inwardly and inherently in the other. Three, and the most desired: total recognition of the fullness and beauty of spirituality within the other so all is cooperation and coordination, each respecting the other according to his own speciality and specific frequency.

 

Three Stages Within Oneself

Within yourselves you have these three levels as well. In the beginning of self-analysis or self-realization you see yourself at war with some other faculty or energy within you. This is the very basic, primitive, mortal man or the subconscious past history constantly warring or fighting with his own superconscious or better nature.

As you go to the second step you come to realize that a certain peace or truce can be arrived at in which neither side antagonizes the other, but tries to live somewhat sympathetically in the same house; or body consciousness, as you would call it. So, there is no conflict within. There is a sense of alrightness, a sense of “let us not disturb the equilibrium.” This is not the desired and fulfilled role at all. But many souls will feel that it is a great achievement, for they just recently have come out of that very primitive stage of war with the higher Self, due to many subconscious leanings and fulfillments and growths.

The third stage that individuals must go to will be the total Christ consciousness and full cooperation and coordination of the higher Self with the mortal consciousness as it has become integrated with the subconscious.

So, you see there is no subject, there is no area we can discuss whereby we do not apply this beautiful golden rule or measuring rod you may now apply to yourself, your society and your relationships with all other forms of life; be they this planet or another planet; be they of this dimension or the invisible dimensions to you, at least at the present time; be they those whom you try to teach and to reach.

 

Three Levels of Souls Incarnated

For the main point of what is to be discussed here is that there are these three levels of souls now incarnated finally in the Latter Days, or the Mark Age period of time. Some souls have not gone beyond the primitive, argumentative, warring nature in which all in their environment and all within themselves are their natural enemies. They have not realized any other state of consciousness. So, they will be the hardest ones to reach. In many cases you will not reach them further than to break the mold or crystallization of that primitive premise in them and from their past experiences for many thousands of years or lifetimes, even.

But the majority of souls who are incarnated upon the Earth during these Latter Days are those who are in the second stage of growth and understanding. This makes up the mass consciousness or the majority of thought personalities, thought forms with which you will be directly in contact as you try to transmute them from second stage evolvement to third stage evolvement. Obviously, it is that type of thinking which is willing to come to a truce and to live in a sense of harmony with all others who are differing from them in color, in nationality, in race, in religion and in basic governmental precepts.

But they may not remain in that second stage of contact or communion for the Golden Era. That is your inner knowledge, that is your demonstration, that is your teaching, you who are the light workers and the advance guard for the Hierarchal Board of this solar system who are here to teach and to secure the third stage of evolution for mankind upon the Earth planet as it participates in this particular solar system. . . .

Those souls who cannot reach the consciousness and willingness to be in the higher state of exchange by the time the Golden Era arrives will be taken to other areas of learning and growth, and will be permitted to evolve someplace else. But that place will not be in this particular solar system.

However, you who are of this consciousness and have this responsibility to perform must now take it upon yourselves to force the Earth plane consciousness — in other words, to transmute the thought temperature and the thought form of the millions who are in the second stage of evolvement — into the third stage of at least desiring that fulfillment or that experience. Again, the third stage is that where all things become coordinated and cooperative, using each other to the fullest extent of the potential and speciality of what they have earned and have grown into from having passed from first into third stage. . . .

Those souls who go into the Golden Era and are connected with the Earth may serve upon the Earth in a third dimensional, going into fourth dimensional, frequency and thus present themselves as examples for this demonstration. Or they may work from astral planes, which will be thoroughly cleansed and experienced as far as understanding the process that must take place, for the astral and the Earth are connected in a way that they cooperate and coordinate.

At the present time, and for at least twenty-six thousand years of evolutionary growth, these two planes have not been cooperating properly. Therefore, you have had the first stage operating between astral and Earth; that is, a sense of war between the two so that those on the astral, in the majority sense, have been warring with those on the Earth, either one trying to take over the other or ignoring the other or disrespecting the particular function, one of the other.

But we will come into the second stage of respect, compatibility and at least harmony and truce session between astral and Earth for the next forty-year period. When in the Golden Era, we will have a third-phase demonstration where the two will be so coordinated and cooperative they will use each other for the functions each can perform to the best of its ability, thus each creation of God fulfilling itself to the fullest extent possible. . . .

 

First, Fifth & Seventh Rays

[Editor’s note: Nada goes on to explain the role of three of the seven aspects of God, or rays of life, in this evolutionary change.]

The First Ray, we know and understand, is the power. Extraordinary in the First Ray is the ability to move the first stage of thinking or primitive consciousness which is at war with all other things in its community to come into a form of union, a beginning of understanding something outside of himself and giving his will over to the will of that which is greater than he is, to the will of God. God, of course, having created all things, then is able to connect with His particular subject, in this case the consciousness of mankind, to make it aware of other forms which God also has created and to begin the spiraling upward into the second and then into the third stage of evolution.

The Fifth Ray, which is the Ray of Integration and Unity, obviously is the ray which teaches man and all other life forms and expressions to have a sense of balance, harmony and respect and to begin to unify his vibration, his speciality or function with all others.

But it is the Seventh Ray of Divine Love which makes all men realize they are one, all other forms of life are of the same Energy or Force or God. The love for this Force or God is that divine love . . . which causes men not only to love God but to love one another, whether the other being is a person, an animal or a part of the vegetable and mineral kingdoms which are in his environment.

Therefore, he becomes so unified, so coordinated and so loving toward all these other forms and species that he becomes one with them. The two are as one, and each loves the other to such an extent that there is no disharmony, there is only rest and peace and joint cooperation and fullness of each to the greatest extent he or she is able to reach. In this state of consciousness, with all seven rays operating, with all fullness of God consciousness and powers at his command, man moves into his fourth and final resting place of being a son of God and a true Christed conscious form.

Let this then be our guide and control. Let this then be our purpose for works we perform. We know now that we may judge ourselves and understand one another according to these measurements. I am Nada, bringing peace, bringing love and bringing understanding unto all who will heed these words.

The Final Awakening

/

Channeled via Nada-Yolanda

 

WE ARE CLOSER TO MANIFESTING A BREAKTHROUGH into mass consciousness than we ever have been in the past twenty-six thousand years. This is Kut Humi speaking. . . . Ages ago, when the conditions were proper and right for our manifesting the glory of the light body in many channels and selected masters of the Hierarchy upon the Earth planet, it took a wrong turn and many were destroyed in the endeavor to bring about the spiritual awakening of all in the third dimension, and thus to bring about a proper frequency or development for the Earth to be better aligned with the rest of the solar system of which it is a part.

But when this condition made manifest an awakening too sudden and not controlled by the higher plane focus or spiritual workers of other planes, and many who had achieved such mastership took the matters into their own hands and aborted the true and higher plan for the sons of men who were in third dimensional frequency, we had to abandon our schedule and to begin again. . . .

It was such that in those days, long before Atlantis was decreed to be demolished entirely, that the spiritual plan was for a goodly number of light workers throughout this solar system and beyond to bring into manifested glory the true spiritual light of the body of the Christed Selves, and by this endeavor inculcate and teach all who were of lesser vibrations and understanding. By their presence in the light body, naturally all would have been transformed eventually; if not by exact teachings, then by example and by being drawn into the force field that was created by the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been instructed to issue the light through the manifested bodies of the personalities they were expressing in those days for that particular program.

 

Crucifixion–Resurrection Initiation

But there is one step that cannot be controlled or premeditated. That is the final and last initiation, of which I am in charge as a teacher and as an example and for the purpose of the many who need such specific instruction and assurance. That last step is the crucifixion–resurrection demonstration. It takes place within the head center of each man individually at the proper time. As each one is prepared by prior experience and fulfillment, he reaches a point in his own soul evolvement where he may go through the Golgotha, the place in the skull, the point where he himself has reached or has raised the level of vibratory, spiritual energy in the head.

This is a leveling-off point in the skull between the ears and crossing over the eyes. This makes a horizontal bar from one end of the skull to the other. It is like a water level that is reached; and one might very well relate it to a water level, if you think in terms of the kundalini fire that raises itself from the lowest sacral plexus, gradually raising the water or the fire of energy, spiritually speaking, until it hits the highest point, between the ears in the head, or across the eyes, approximately.

This awakening within man performs many services. It opens all the centers and keeps them balanced. By the time a man has reached that level of spiritual effectiveness in his personal life and affairs and relationships, and is demonstrating them in his own body, he is ready for the final step, which is like a sword penetrating from the top of the head down through the neck or throat chakra. That is the descent of the Spirit from beyond the personality and the personal will, and only under the divine direction, causing the crucifixion of the individual’s life, affairs, personality and will.

Planning until that point is sometimes equivalent to many years, or many lifetimes in some cases, even for a master demonstration. It cannot be measured in mortal terms, nor is it meant to be measured in mortal terms, because it has to do with the plan of Spirit affecting the entire race, and certainly as it is proper for that individual soul in his evolutionary progress and for the part he must play within the masses. So, there is no hindrance or no stigma attached to the fact that in the case of some individuals the raising of the kundalini in a physical body may take several lifetimes. . . .

Although the kundalini fire or spiritual energy is surpassed, conquered, controlled and understood each step of the way as it ascends from the lowest sexual point in the body and in the consciousness of man through to his ability to assimilate and to digest, to the point where he is in love and loving toward all this information and program, wills and wishes to use the program and the power properly, experiences the psychic-spiritual-mental faculties that demonstrate and indicate his superiority over all other forms of life, it must be held consciously in the pituitary center or that point I have pointed out: the third eye, the point between the ears in the head, the skull, the crucifixion.

We go from place to place and from opening to opening and we balance each time all we have conquered. If it takes an entire lifetime or era in the race consciousness, we go back and reassemble what we have learned from the past. But naturally it does not take as long to reassess when you have demonstrated your ability to command over a certain center or point of evolution. So it is, as a master comes into conscious awakening in this lifetime, or in any single lifetime for that matter, that he must redemonstrate and reexperience each of the openings of each of the centers until he gets to the point in the skull that we call the psychic center or spiritual awareness level.

If it takes ten years or twenty years, each one of the initiations, which are six in number, may be relived just as they were in past lives or in other eras of time.* If the master had been very successful in demonstrating on the Earth planet these various initiations or levels of consciousness, he quickly passes through that sphere or schedule. But always he must go back and reevaluate the lower or lesser initiations, even though he already has conquered them at another time in the past. So, it is a constant reevaluation until it gets to the point where spiritual awakening is achieved. This is the pituitary center, in all people. And of course it applies also to the race, for this is the point where man can go no further in his own endeavors and achievements and willfulness.

 

Penetration of the Spirit

But that is why I am taking so much time to explain this and hoping you have visualized what I am bringing forth at this point. As the final step is the penetration of the Spirit, the Holy Father within — but also all around and outside of you — you must wait and be prepared and accept it. This penetration does not come in one flash or in one instant. The time element is not one of your own choosing, for this very reason: man is not alone on the planet. He has his fellowman to contend with, and they all are interrelated with him and they all have a part to play in his whole and entire scheme of development.

He is not alone on the planet, because he shares that planet with many other species. It is true he has dominion over these other species, but he still is conscious of the fact that his efforts and his awakening have a definite and specific contribution to their evolvement, growth, participation and gradual evolvement into the next sphere or step within the scheme of everlasting life and form. Man also is part of a whole solar system. And where he is, even on the Earth, he must consider all the other planets and all the other levels or dimensions which participate in the Earth fulfillment as a third dimensional force.

Since Spirit is in all of these areas and regions, since Spirit creates and controls all life form, Spirit alone knows the hour and the moment for the final full awakening, when any one individual can demonstrate the powers of God, the knowledge of God, the love of God and the beingness of His cocreative life; a son in full-manifested glory. This is the crowning glory of any of the light workers and sons of the realm of Godship. It cannot be premeditated, it cannot be planned, it cannot be proclaimed by man alone. It must be prepared and it must be presented by the Spirit alone.

So, although man can prepare all of his other areas of development and he can hold this power and he can demonstrate this power, until that point of connection where the outside force meets the inner force we wait, we contemplate, we grow, we educate, we formulate, but we do not act. That is the point, approximately, where the race of man is presently. That is the point of the entire Mark Age period and program.

We have endeavored to teach, to show and to demonstrate what these faculties are and what you are to expect and how you will act when the time comes. We have given prior information as to some of the demonstrations and responsibilities the fully awakened son of God shall have upon the planet in relationship to the entire solar system. But we who are light workers ourselves, we who are ascended masters, even in this solar system, cannot promote and cannot predict, cannot plan and cannot present you with the Sonship of God, which is beyond our power.

Our preparation, our life, our cooperation are entirely at your disposal. We have helped you to examine each one of the six levels, before the final one, of your achievements from the past lives and even from your true and just place within the solar system. In some cases we have aided and have supported our Hierarchal Board members who are planted upon the Earth to do this work, for they truly will lead and will guide and will remember when the time does come for them to be put into that position of honor and of spiritual self-sacrifice.

But even with our power and knowledge and acknowledgment of the past and of the achievements that are rightfully belonging to you as a race, to the planet Earth, which has earned it not only once but twice before, and to each individual who has incarnated for the purpose of awakening and for carrying through the proper plan at the proper time and in the proper manner, we who are helping may not do more than assist in this birth process and stand by at the crucifixion of the planet, the race and the individuals involved, so Spirit can descend into that skull and penetrate that level or horizontal bar within the skull that represents part of the cross within the head center.

When this point is contacted, a form of light or tremor in the physical body does take place. But the point is attempted on many occasions and is removed in order to prepare the person or persons involved for the future solidification and permanency of that point of contact and illumination. Though it may take days or weeks for the actual fulfillment and grounding of the total crucified consciousness and activities, it is not permanent until that point of contact is held by Spirit and not by the individual’s will.

So, there is no point in any one individual holding on to that single point or feeling or experience that does occur time and time again in the testing process of the final contact point. You therefore will feel occasionally that a moment of illumination has occurred, and you will feel that because of this moment of illumination you have passed the crucifixion and are then fully pledged to the total Christ consciousness. But you cannot demonstrate it. You cannot prove it. And it is only by the proof or the fruits that we can examine and accept what is called full light manifestation or Christhood.

Put Love into Action

/ / 1 Comment

by Nada-Yolanda

 

SPIRITUAL TEACHERS AND LEADERS ever have exhorted man to love one another. Yet, in spite of these constant pleas for man to unfold his love expression and to step into his true heritage as a Christed being, there always have been those who either have disregarded or have misunderstood this commandment. These attitudes must change before man enters the New Age of love, and experiences planetary fulfillment as one brotherhood under God.

Man’s questioning concerning his responsibility to love is reflected in the historical dramas of many scriptures. For example, from the beginning to the end of the Holy Bible, from the book of Genesis to the book of Revelation, we have this question: Am I my brother’s keeper? The selfish part of ourselves destroys the unselfish; the mortal tries to murder the immortal. Yet, Jesus, who enacted for us the role of the Christ Self in each one, concluded the entire saga of man on this planet with, “I, if I be lifted up, will raise all men unto me.”

Throughout all eras, societies and religions the truth teachings of the masters have emphasized our responsibility as spiritual sons of God to demonstrate brotherly love to all our fellowmen; to our neighbors as well as to ourselves and families and friends. In the present hierarchal program for the Second Coming, this love responsibility takes on a new urgency not only for all light workers but for all mankind of Earth. For before man here can enter into the New Age of spiritual expression and fulfillment, he must prove himself willing to example divine laws of love and brotherhood to all his fellow beings on this planet.

Many Hierarchal Board channelings through me also have stressed the responsibility of brotherly love for one another, and have given a blueprint of truth principles by which we can pattern our demonstration as spiritual beings evolving from third dimensional physical form into fourth dimensional light-body form. The following communication by Sananda on October 20, 1969, illustrates this need to become love in action. [For more on our love responsibility as light workers, see “Demonstrate Love Responsibility” on page 351 in Nada-Yolanda’s Autobiography of a Prophet.]

“If you will, use love as divinely guided and directed in whatever measure you deem appropriate; but use it. If you cannot love a person or situation as it is, love that person and situation as it is meant to be or as you desire it to become. All is in a state of becoming. Therefore, what is the highest and greatest or most desirable activity, but love? So, become love in action. That is your scheme and your activity of future projects. . . .

“For to love and to bring love energy into any human situation is to equalize it with the Father-Mother Creative Principle. The equalizing both balances negativity into positive response, and causes a new form to become manifested in and through the person or conditions experiencing this particular vibration. . . .

“You are not to be concerned with doing this, as you do not do anything. The law or Lord God does all things. You are the focal points of energy and creation through which He works. Therefore, make yourselves agreeable and available for Him to do this work. You do this by becoming love in action.”

 

Examples of Love

The following case histories are about caring and loving; and are meant to inspire and to hearten us as light workers to be aware of, and to search for, yet-undiscovered ways we may aid our fellowmen and apply the commandment Love One Another.

• Resolve relationships now. On March 10, 1978, syndicated columnist Ann Landers published a letter a person had written to his family on the death of a brother. Poignantly it focuses on the sin of omission, after it is too late to rectify a state of selfishness or indifference. The person wrote: “During this time of mourning there comes a pause for reflection, appraisal and regret. I regret that my brother and I did not accept each other as we were. I regret that we didn’t help each other more, that we didn’t share our feelings and our troubles. I regret that we didn’t make time for each other. These things I regret for myself. Yet, I believe I am not alone.”

The renowned columnist replied: “Of course, it’s too late to do anything about your ‘regrets,’ but writing that letter to your brother’s children, and to yours, and sharing it with my millions of readers will surely cause others to reflect on their relationships with brothers and sisters. You will never know how much good you have done. Thank you.”

• Everyone needs love. Here is a survey published at the University of California in January 1978 by Lisa Berkman, a disease specialist at the university’s School of Public Health. To all of us this report should answer the often-asked questions: What can one person do? Can the thoughts and the actions of one person really make any difference?

This study showed that persons with a low level of social contacts faced two to four times the risk of dying than people with many attachments. The university said the study “provides the first strong scientific evidence to link social and community ties to mortality rates, and perhaps to an overall resistance to disease.

“In each case, covering nine years, persons with strong social ties and relationships had lower mortality rates than those without such contacts. The more intimate ties of marriage and contact with friends and relatives proved stronger predictors than ties of church and group membership.”

Berkman said persons low on the social-contact scale had a higher risk of dying not only from leading ailments but also from accidents and suicides.

• Persist in efforts to love. From my personal files comes this example of a close friend of twenty-five years: “This professional woman had an extremely harsh life with a husband, six children, her own business, and a lover who could not marry her even though she divorced her husband. She began to drink heavily, and I continually warned her that she was becoming an alcoholic and destroying her health.

“Our friendship spanned the years of her many crises; but she continued to drink heavily, which certainly didn’t solve any of her problems. Instead, this got her deeper into more problems and new crises. Eventually she married a man who, it later turned out, was a sicker alcoholic than she. . . .

“Every time she was in trouble or was ready to run out on her obligations, she called me. For twenty-five years I repeated the same spiritual truths. She would get a little bit better, something new would surface — because she had not changed her basic patterns, nor faced her destructive habit — and it would be back to the old sickness.

“However, she always said to me: ‘At least, Yolanda, you are always there. No matter how bad things get, I know you’ll listen. You’ll scold me harder than I scold myself, but at least I have one person who knows and cares about me.’

“Watching her second husband destroying himself, without any of her sincere and persistent efforts making the slightest dent, she suddenly stopped drinking. All our talks over the past twenty-five years finally took root. She began playing the role and speaking the same basic truths to her husband that I had with her.

“The real miracle to this story is that her new resolves and patterns affected her son, who also was an alcoholic. He joined Alcoholics Anonymous, and this profoundly changed the life of her other children, grandchildren, and the children of her second husband. ‘I, if I be lifted up, will raise all men unto me.’ ”

• Love is unconditional. On a ranch in Homestead, Florida, George and Barbara Goins opened their home to problem youngsters. This is no formal state or church-run rehabilitation center. The Goins have just one panacea for every problem: love, and lots of it.

Here is a quote from a Miami Herald newspaper interview with them on February 20, 1978: “You just can’t fight love. No matter how much wrong these youngsters do or what they get into, we simply open our arms and love them. We let them know we don’t agree with them when they do wrong, and we tell them they don’t have to do harmful things to themselves and to others. . . .

“We know we can’t stop the children from doing wrong. They have to want to do that from within. But with each victory we gain another helper. That youngster in turn tries to help another. It just keeps going on and on. We’re not working to see how many we can say we have helped. If we reach only one, well that is reward enough for us!”

They stated a basic universal law. If we, the light workers awakened on Earth today, cannot think and feel, speak and act in this same way, then there is no program and there is no hope. So, let us consider how each of us can do just one more thing for a spiritual sister or brother, go just one more step for someone who has stumbled and fallen. For one act or gift to a fellow child of God can affect, inspire, uplift and change millions of others.

 

Your Love Potential

But the questions still may remain: How am I to know love? What are the guideposts of brotherly love? By what signs within myself may I be sure that what I feel for others is true caring?

Self-examination on a frequent and regular basis is essential to answering honestly these questions. Repeatedly going within and connecting with your I Am spirit will help you discover your love potential for your fellowmen. The following passage is ideal for spiritual study and regular self-analysis. It is taken from the book Teach Us To Pray by Charles and Cora Fillmore, published by Unity School of Christianity. Charles Fillmore, cofounder of Unity, had incarnated previously as Paul the Apostle, and is now on the etheric planes as Hilarion, Chohan of the Fifth Ray.

“We have thought of love to God in terms of something of immense size, something that we must encompass as a whole, when the fact is that love is a composite. It is made up of attributes, as is made clear by Paul in 1 Corinthians.

“According to Paul, love is the name of a great variety of little commonplace activities of everyday life.

“Are you patient and kind? ‘Love suffers long, and is kind.’

“Envious? ‘Love envies not.’

“Egotistical and proud? ‘Love vaunts not itself, is not puffed up.’

“Are you temperamental? Love ‘does not behave itself unseemly.’

“Are you grasping and selfish? Love ‘seeks not its own.’

“Do you give way easily to your temper? Love ‘is not provoked.’

“Do you behold evil as real and agonize over the evils of the world? Love ‘takes not account of evil.’

“Do you rejoice when disaster overtakes evil persons and exclaim, ‘They got just what was coming to them’? ‘Love . . . rejoices not in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth.’

“Do you patiently bear the whips and scorns of time? ‘Love . . . bears all things.’

“Are you open-minded and receptive to good, whatever its source? ‘Love . . . believes all things.’

“Do you anticipate the future with fear and forebodings? ‘Love . . . hopes all things.’

“Do you endure with trust and confidence in eternal justice? . . . Love ‘endures all things.’

“Paul says: ‘If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. . . . But now abide faith, hope, love, these three: and the greatest of these is love.’ ”

 

Reprinted from Chapter 3 of University of Life course Love One Another, published in July 1979 (out of print).

 

High Self Action with Love

“Attunement is not enough; action with love is attunement with Self. . . . You may step out of the physical into the high Self activity every time love speaks through action. Love of Self causes intunement, but love of God and man is action. . . . This is the New Age teaching. . . . So, New Age is action with high Self, action with love.”

—Sananda/Jesus; July 7, 1960

Projection of Light Body

/ / 1 Comment

Channeled via Nada-Yolanda

 

Dr. Hannibal speaking. . . . You will begin to receive more word of our projections of energies and thoughts throughout the planet as they are transferred from the highest plane of activity and execution down through the ships stationed in outer atmospheric conclaves in order to be projected systematically into the Earth’s atmosphere, thus picked up by those of enlightenment and intunement with the hierarchal program and plan.

That ever has been the purpose and the need for our higher spaceships in the outer fringes of Earth plane matter. You have known of this and you have delivered much in the way of information concerning those etheric ships so stationed. They are the protectors of the Earth’s atmosphere during the configuration of the planets, and the problems caused by thought forms and energies concluded on Earth in the ending of this age, known as the Mark Age period and program before the beginning of the New Age or Golden Era that shall come in short order and according to divine plan and purpose.

We seek not honor for our roles and missions, but enjoy doing whatever we can wherever we can to perform these tasks for the sake of mankind upon the Earth in these Latter Days. You have participated in this and you have shared in it, as well as you have cooperated with us in bringing about many manifestations already, and will be with the few in conscious recall and among those who will project the light body upon the Earth in these so-called end days. My mission in the next cycle of time, which begins immediately, will be to prepare those who have the light bodies already produced by standards of Earth plane source.

You have not realized fully yet, many of you, that the light body is conducted by the spiritual Self independently of the physical vessel. Many times these light bodies are projected into other atmospheres, planes and planets in order to pick up missions, information, and to confer with those with whom they are cooperating or have preset a plan of operation before incarnating in a physical vehicle upon the Earth. You may not know as yet that these light bodies may be projected into the Earth plane at any given place at any given time when the spiritual Self within feels a true mission and message proper and forthcoming.

So, what you do not know and have not realized totally is that your light body is a plus extension to that of your physical vehicle. We know and we have seen and we have operated with and have conferred with these light bodies on thousands of occasions when it has been proper and has been deemed necessary.

 

Etheric Materializations

We have projected our light bodies to the Earth on numerous occasions as well, and even have been able to produce a lasting effect whenever that has taken place, because we have been seen in a few cases and we have talked as individuals independent of Earth plane personalities, as you may know and understand them. But too many have not recognized the difference between the two types of vehicles. So far, this has not been too important or essential to the overall cause. For what we have done by projecting our vehicles to the Earth for very short spans of time — minutes; to the utmost, perhaps several hours, in a few cases — has been to prepare the frequency of Earth plane matter in accepting and holding that light vibration.

Now, do not misunderstand and think the Earth plane cannot sustain such a vibration, or that our light bodies are so far beyond anything the Earth plane can hold that we are performing some sort of miraculous demonstration, for this is not the truth. You already have received the light body of Jesus the Christ two thousand years ago and had it sustained upon the Earth for forty days before he ascended out of the Earth plane atmosphere and left for a temporary period of time, let us say, in order that he might return and hold that body as long as he so desired upon the Earth plane.

But what we have done has changed the matter or the frequency of thought around the individuals who have been visited so by us or by personnel directed through our total control of the situation. You thus have been afforded greater opportunity than ever has visited the Earth: the time, the place and the proper tribal frequency that can sustain and manifest a multitude of bodies in that frequency simultaneously working and independent of one another. This is the purpose behind our demonstrations and our experiments until this time.

 

Demonstration of Light-Body Travel

Also, your endeavors to project the light bodies in other places besides the place where your own physical frequency is operating are to permit this travel to become widely accepted upon the Earth in these times of the Latter Days and the end time for material matter or third dimensional frequency upon the Earth. In this we have assisted you on numerous occasions, both consciously and unconsciously. Most often this has occurred in the sleep or dream state and you have not been aware of the actual projection and production that resulted from it, because those who will produce this effect consciously must have practiced it sufficiently within the unconscious state to make it appear to them as a simple and unconcerning matter. . . .

You may now begin to understand why we have taken all these precautions to experiment and to draw out the plan through the sleep or the unconscious state for many long years before it is brought to your conscious attention and allowed to be conducted from the conscious level. This then means the marriage between the conscious self and the superconscious Self that takes place in the Christing of the individual during a specific personal episode of life. That was accomplished on many occasions upon the Earth, but mainly used and demonstrated through the personality we call Jesus the Christ. So that you have this example, it has been given over and over again, and that has led you to dwell upon this as the primary example for the Earth. And truly it is that primary example, as has been stated over again through this channel and many others before her, and will be again after.

But we are concerned at this stage of the evolvement with many of mankind’s species to give this similar demonstration in the conscious and to show the wedding of the conscious mind and personality with the spiritual identity or the Christ Self within, and thus bring about an entirely new level of demonstration or manifestation upon the Earth planet through the Christing and through the talents of those Christed Selves everywhere upon the Earth. As we have stated similarly on numerous occasions, it is the subtle meaning of the hundred and forty-four thousand, the remnant of the Earth planet’s population who will bring it into its new level of vibration or bring the new heaven upon the new Earth.

 

A New Heaven on a New Earth

You know now the new heaven is that vibration or frequency that must descend or wed with or merge with the third dimensional frequency of matter as it is now projecting or produced from Spirit’s desire and plan for eons of time. So, we have produced and have projected, from our understanding of this plan of a higher frequency and life evolvement, a new Earth in an etheric vibration that shall descend and shall wed with or shall merge with that which now exists. This has been created by the thoughts and the prayers of those who have been of the Earth but no longer are residing on the Earth at the present time, and those who are residing upon the Earth at the present time but who have been elsewhere in the solar system and in other universes and who are capable of bringing it about.

So, in one sense it is the merging of us on a higher plane with those of you on the Earth who are ready and receptive to our vibration and visitants. It also is the merging of your higher Selves or light bodies with your physical bodies in such a way that you are conscious of the two operating simultaneously, whether or not the two bodies are operating in the same plane and whether or not they are operating in the same place upon the planet at the same time. . . .

 

Maintain Equilibrium

It is a hazardous period that we go into, for we expect some mistakes, or fears themselves to create mistakes, within those who already are quite advanced in this work. It is very hazardous because the minds of men who have not prepared for this will find it quite unacceptable and undesirable. You will be rejected in both the light body and in the Earth body wherever they are and whatever is being done.

We expect to be rejected, and have been rejected, during our missions to Earth. This has not deterred us, because our anchoring is not in the Earth and therefore it could not shatter the equilibrium, nor the vessel through which we were working. In a sense, the light body which we project to the Earth, no matter how solid or stationary it may seem to be for the time being, is merely an illusion to the man of Earth, since it is not anchored there. That is what some have called it or have felt it to be: a form of hallucination or illusion.

And due to the fact that man is trying to shake his physical body or to rise up out of his physical body through artificial means, he is causing a tremendous instability for himself; because, above all, he needs his anchoring body while he develops the spiritual body in this Earth plane manifestation. This is true on other planes, also. But nowhere is it as difficult as it is upon the Earth, because of the lack of understanding.

You know, and I am sure you all appreciate, that the understanding and acceptance level of man is the point from which we can work successfully. Anything that goes against his understanding and goes or rubs against his acceptance of what is happening is not well placed and not permanently achieved; so that no matter how much work we do, no matter how many times we manifest, if it is not understood and accepted within the conscious vehicle anchored upon the plane for which it is serving, then we have not created a change in the vibration. It must be done from that level and with these conditions that are outlined here.

Every Planet Connected in Universe

As every single part of your body is connected to every other single part of your body through electrical energy, it is so all through creation. Every planet is so connected with every other planet throughout all creation. I do not only mean in this solar system or universe or galaxy, I mean this throughout all creation. Every planet has certain substances and expressions and areas of influence that affect every other planet everywhere in existence.

So you see the manifold ways in which Spirit can work Its wonders and Its productions wherever you may be in existence.

Serve Where You Are

WALK YOU AMONGST MY SHEEP and tell me what you find: hunger, ambivalence, confusion. Terrible are the situations which beset a people of these conditions. They seem neither to go left or right, but to stand still in their agonies. Yet we who are etherically bound in consciousness and activity see not all these things in great detail, but only the drifting and the impassiveness of such. That is your function and your purpose for being in the Earth now: to lift their eyes unto the hills from whence comes the shepherd of their salvation.

These are not merely poetic phrases, but, in essence, truth; positive and factual. These are the events upon us in the present time. Always it has been the few in Earth embodiment who can straddle or climb up into the hills while they remain or keep grounded in the home of the valley. Indeed is this a valley of the shadow of death, for those who are in the valley of the Earth today are troubled by the shadow of death. Their death is a death in consciousness and in will, a strangling shadow of death that keeps them in fear and anger. They see not, at the left or the right, the mountains which reach up into heavenly spheres of succor and peace and goodness.

Our purpose would be defeated, to bring the hills down into the valley; for then there would be no hill to climb. It is in the climbing that we have the strength and know that the lowly areas of conscious mind and subconscious fears are without permanent reality. Only by their striving and struggling, a few who are embodied in the valley, but who brave the climb up the hill into the etheric realms and wish to raise the sheep into finer fields and clearer waters, know these things and believe them and work upon them. It is thus to these that we turn and have our hope and keep our vigil. You are amongst those who are to feed my sheep.

 

Feed My Sheep

Bring them onto the path, literally, that they may find their way to this salvation. It will not be easy, nor has it ever been easy. But these sheep must know the heights as well as the depths. A people which have chosen to go down into the valley of the shadow of death must not lose sight that they have gone down from whence they had originated. They were not born of that consciousness originally. They were born of the height in spiritual consciousness. Of their own volition they wandered for experience into these valleys, and now they have forgotten the way back. You who have chosen this work and this mission must not forget, as they have, that the valley is temporary and that the good of life is in the mountains above their consciousness, in the sky.

It is the danger that all who descend into the mortal are faced with. And we, who are here beckoning to you, try to call and to keep you in clear and dedicated spiritual form. We are the ones to whom you must travel; not we travel to you, into the valley of mortal embodiment. It is ever thus that you who have taken upon yourselves this physical mission and body must of necessity have the dual works: to be amongst those who are in the depths of this depressed state; and to be with us, in consciousness and choice of will, above that depressed state. We see this as one of the hardest parts of the mission, and not the easiest. So, we give every advantage and send forth every encouragement that is possible.

It is not easy, as we know; for most of us who are here in this level of work have descended at one time or another, as you yourselves have in past experiences or in other places, in the long evolvement toward perfecting ourselves. But this is the way and the utilization of the powers, and so it cannot be demonstrated outwardly in any other form. Your dualness comprises of spiritual consciousness and mortal actions; and the wedding of the two, that makes each mortal action a spiritually grounded affair. It is, as said, a most difficult balance to maintain. For the pull and the pressures that are in the valley are greater at times than the knowledge and the desire of the hills above, whence cometh your strength and the peace which you all seek.

We speak thus in parable that you may apply every condition that is suitable, and find that it has merit in this. If, on the other hand, we would speak of specific situations, your mortal minds tend to say that it applies only to that condition and cannot be applied to the next. So, it causes work upon your own part to apply basic truth principles in specific mortal problems. The problems themselves change daily, do they not? The principle is steadfast and must be unchangeable. This calls for the spiritual strength; with the eyes upward, knowing that this truth is there, while being pulled and pummeled and hurt on many occasions by the affairs of men in the depths of these valleys where they struggle and destroy themselves and each other.

 

Sustain Light, Love, Life

Destruction is not always a physical act of violence. Destructive thoughts are as terrible, and as meaningless in the long run, as any physical form of that. It is because of this factor that you who know the idea and the thoughts of spiritual succor that remain steadfastly and formidably in the higher spheres or the hills can assist those who use these meaningless ventures. The thoughts that you are able to sustain of light and love and life, which are eternal, are as real and must become as real as the two feet planted in the mud of the valley below. This must be your demonstration and your faith. Therefore, as you demonstrate these thoughts and make them acts, so you are demonstrating in principle that thought and faith of higher things are real enough to those who have not seen or yet believed what you have seen and what you have come to believe.

Our communications with you, through mental telepathic and other means of vision and clairsentient, clairvoyant, clairaudient channels, can become the beacon for their rise as well as your own. This reality in the sense of their own unreality of life upon the planet in mortal embodiment eventually must be the light which commands the attention and brings about the desire for growth upward. It is by your belief and understanding that those who are able to, guide and guard the progress; that the others, who have not the experience that you are entitled to and enjoy, can find some way out of their situation. You then will represent what we represent to you now: a mountain peak in the midst of a low, depressed area.

Our strength and fortitude have brought you thus far and have given you some sense of future achievements. But what of the sheep in the mud below who have not this to look forward to? They are as the blind ones burying their heads even deeper into the pits. Thus you must arouse them and open those eyes. Shall it be easy, and shall you receive only compliments and praise? Have we, from you, at all times received these things? Or have we heard your complaints and frustrations and doubts and angers, even those who have been in better condition to see proof of our constant surveillance over the situation and the faithfulness of our acts and protection? So, it is not for these things that we have come, any more than it is for these things that you have descended into those valleys to herd the sheep, to guide them to the path and to nudge them upward on the climb.

 

Be in Both Worlds

Our single vision is that those who are in Earth embodiment will see and will know, in full faith and consciousness, what it is to be part of both worlds. For the shepherd can travel the path easily, knowing the way. He comes from his mountain home down into the valley where the sheep may have gathered. He can leave them there and return to his home, or even look upward while in the valley, knowing the comfort and remembering well that fire of life that is within the hearth and home ahead. However, the sheep are not of this memory. It is to awaken them and to train them to search for that which is theirs, just to take and to command; as we have sent the message and keep the vigil for you at all times.

It would not do for all of us to leave this state and to descend in the effort to raise mankind, any more than in any village would all travel to the same point in the fields without remaining behind a few to prepare the feast upon the return and to keep the home fires burning. First and foremost, it is necessary for those who have wandered out as shepherds to know both areas of experience. It is their demonstration of this and their ability to keep the group together in its venturing out and in its return back. Secondly, it is for the strengthening of the individual, who has taken upon himself this experience, to know and to believe that which he has had awakened within himself. So, those who wish that the masters and the teachers of other planes would come and participate in their jobs and in their missions, leaving them no job and no mission thereby, are mistaken in their desires.

This does not mean that there are not communication and exchange and it does not mean that there are not occasional assisting hands to help over the roughest parts of the climb, for this always has been Spirit’s way and always will be Spirit’s way. But when you call for this help you must recognize and you must condition it by the fact that it is only partly and temporarily there for you. By doing so, you undertake an obligation to those who answer this call and you open karmic debts. For that which you have received at any time you also must give back sometime. The implications here are vast: for man has a tendency only to think of the present life and the single incarnation, without realizing that his soul is eternal and his spirit finds many means of expressing and of exchanging.

You should not be overly cautious, however, about your needs, for we all are here to assist one another. Only by the act that you demonstrate, of calling for assistance and receiving it, are you able to teach those who know not of this assistance; that they too should call and utilize whatever aids are there, in Spirit’s grace, to give them the needed encouragement and help. Thus you in your place are serving both the higher and the lower manifestations. By calling and using the assistance offered and available, you give those in higher spheres opportunities to do the work and to come into the Earth plane. Also, you are teaching those of the Earth plane to look beyond themselves in higher expressions for a way upward and onward, that their depression may be lessened and that their unhappiness is without eternal damnation.

 

Teach & Demonstrate

It is this dual function which you, as the balancing rod, can achieve for Spirit. You teach and you demonstrate the faith within that God is good. You teach and you demonstrate that there are hope and love, and assistants elsewhere in the universe who can come and befriend mankind in his troubled hours. By this demonstration you lift them and use us. Then all is in proper order and exchange. Then all is according to Spirit’s plan.

We must be sure not to allow our striplings to feel that only through the assistance of other forms of life can they be raised; for the symbology and parables used here are to bring about a conscious awareness that there are several methods by which the same Spirit does work. Those who are in the valley consciousness have come down from the mountain area of evolvement, and it is this to which they must return, as you already recognize. They must recognize in themselves and imitate that which you already are expressing to them and experiencing within yourselves: God consciousness is within. It is represented here by that climb to the highest peaks. Their mortal expressions are the valleys, into which they have become so enmeshed that the mountains around them are not seen by turning their heads to the left or to the right.

We do not expect, nor desire, that each one thinks only of those agents of Spirit who reside in those higher peaks. We wish rather that the high peaks are the desired destiny; for they represent the rise in consciousness and the change from one form into another, and the hope ahead. That these high peaks are populated by those of us who guard and man them are secondary achievements and considerations, not the primary ones. This fact also must be ever uppermost in your own endeavors. We cannot teach and demonstrate that responsibility can be shifted from one shepherd to another.

For the time will come when you, as shepherds unto these sheep, also must remove yourselves and go elsewhere. If the sheep are not strengthened to travel the path from valley to mountain, and back to valley again if necessary, then we have not accomplished that which all of us have set out to do. We have been among the sheep ourselves, in prior times, and learned the way down and the way back. Some of us have descended into the valley once more, while others of us remain in the higher state. This act has been performed many times by different players in different eras, and is now only one last and final curtain call.

 

One Family in Sonship

The life we offer is one that must be maintained by all who are of the one body or creation of God: His Son. For in this body of Sonship we are as one; some older, some younger, with the older ones guiding the younger ones. That too is part of the parable given here. For those who have remained on the home front are preparing the feast for those who have wandered off into our Father’s kingdom into the lower depths, into the valley of the shadow of death. We who have remained at home have known no death; for those who have wandered into that which is called death and have returned to the Father’s mansion have come to understand and to realize that there never was any death. For God’s eternal Son is just that: eternal; merely changing form and wandering in His great kingdom or universe.

Let us then be as one family. Those who have wandered off need those to go after them and to bring them back; while those who are here in the bosom of the family, home and hearth can make the homecoming, that moment of joy and reunion, a pleasant one. None are eternally lost, for not one of us would let another be so. Always the Spirit of our Father-Mother God finds ways and means to bring about a return. Let us be concerned with the situation we have here now; and work as best we can, one with the other. We know the way is not easy and simple, for we have been that way and know the path quite well. But were it the intention for us to be where you are, we would; and were it the intention for you to be where we are, so it would be.

In the meantime, we can exchange and aid one another according to the will of God and for the highest interests of both situations. Let us then be content. Let us then know that peace of who we are, where we are and what we have to do. It has been given, and is being given, and shall continue to be given again and again until this achievement is completed. I am, ever and always, your servant, your brother, your friend and your guide, Jesus the Christ.

Sananda’s Disciples & Helpmates

ALTHOUGH YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES, I consider you my helpmates. And even as my helpmates, you still are my disciples. This paradoxical situation is important and significant in your understanding of the days ahead and the functions of your participation in the Mark Age [Latter-Day] period and this program. As helpmates you are joined with me in understanding and in consciousness to bring about a higher fulfillment for the race of man and for the planet of Earth. But ever and always, in addition to and in spite of your high positions and achievements elsewhere in soul development, you remain my disciples while operating in the Earth plane.

This is due to the fact that my participation through eons of time, my role and my function for the planet Earth and the hierarchal scheme of things, makes me the blueprint or the way shower for this dimension and this particular project. Although many have come and served me (and, utmost in importance, they have served God for the race of man in this evolvement process), none have had the responsibility to bring forth the perfect plan and pattern of developing Christ consciousness in and through soul evolvement while incarnating in various bodies on the Earth. Each of us has an important role and function to play in the total scheme of man’s development. Not one is less than the other, but all are important.

However, from time to time we take a pattern or we are given an opportunity to present a certain aspect of God’s eternal concepts. When this is presented to the consciousness and the soul develops consciously this pattern, we have what we call way showers or avatars. It is not something that a man consciously chooses; and yet he consciously does choose it. This paradox is also a seeming contradiction, but is not. For first of all, he grows and develops his own soul awareness, and through that soul awareness is able to make a choice. But it is the God Self within that is leading and guiding him into new steps and procedures all the while. Thus, the true servant of God looks not upon his own will and way, but only at the Father within, the Christ Self, to make the choice and to select him for those missions ahead.

That this is done consciously or with full awareness only means that the evolvement of that particular individual is such that he is in complete rapport or oneness with his spiritual Self guiding him. Thus, it may seem that the choice is the individual’s choice to make, when all the while the truly evolved soul has bowed his will to that of the Father within. Until man has achieved this conscious choice of bowing to the spirit’s will within, he will make the error conclusion that he, the personality or the mortal self, has chosen his role and his function.

Therefore, I say unto you again that you are both my disciples and my helpmates. For you have chosen to help me by the fact that you have chosen to be my disciples on this Earth plane; that you have chosen to follow my path and my way of achieving Christ consciousness while in a mortal, physical, three-dimensional body.

Not that others never have achieved or demonstrated this, but that I have given a certain speciality and simplicity to this achievement. In many lives I strived to achieve the same balance between mortal and spiritual wills. In many lives I succeeded in this while upon the Earth plane. In each life I became more clear, more sure, more direct, until the very simple and highly gratifying life as Jesus of Nazareth.

Always and ever the soul is in evolvement. Never do we repeat our lesson in exactly the same way without having received some knowledge and benefit from the lives that have gone before. Even those souls who are creating negative, error karma for themselves, and in some ways going backward instead of forward, still are making up karmic situations and balances that can and will benefit them in time to come. So, that is why I can say that although I had achieved Christ consciousness in more than one life upon the Earth, the epitome of all demonstrations was in the last incarnation or initiation as Jesus of Nazareth.

I have lived and have guided and have set forth the plans of Earth before mankind on many occasions. Among those lives have been Moses; Gautama, the Buddha; and the philosopher Socrates in Greece; before incarnating the last time as Jesus of Nazareth. In each one of those lives, and in others, man of Earth now incarnated on the planet had achieved a certain state of balance and understanding. Each time the soul structure needed encouragement and prodding.

Each time my own awareness was such that I could provide the next link in the evolving pattern. Each time I refined and simplified the contact with the God Self within; not only for myself, who had known and had achieved these things prior to life on Earth, but more as a pattern and as a stimulus for the race of man. This function and role had been given me long before the present known history of Earth. In fulfilling that I undertook many responsibilities, roles and incarnations; some even not recorded on the Earth, for they were prehistoric, as you now know life upon the Earth.

This development created a certain route within the pattern structure of mankind in his search for truth and light. Each time such a route is blazed by one pioneering soul, another can find his way via that route. All who do incarnate then in a certain place which has its limitations and circumstances for growth, can walk upon that path and imitate that procedure. For this is the way that one soul serves another. This is the graciousness and love of a Father who controls and who blesses His creations. This is the true understanding of evolutionary process. Therefore, all who do incarnate upon the planet are able to tap in through the unconscious forms and records of the race to those paths or routes and follow them, if that be the need for the soul of the individual at that given time.

But there are other considerations in the whole structure of evolutionary process, and these involve other planes and planets, spheres and dimensions which are interpenetrating and interrelating with life as you know it on the three-dimensional sphere called Earth. It is the evolutionary process of these areas that we also serve and work and organize to coordinate. It is for the sake of this total evolutionary process that each area is important to each other area and to the whole. Therefore, when I have called you helpmates it is with this understanding that we are coordinating and lifting all areas that are interrelated and interpenetrating in the whole evolutionary process of mankind in this part of the universe which we designate our solar system.

Such is the orderly process that is everywhere in creation. Because man has not been able to discern or to accept this, as a whole group and as a single coordinated unit upon the Earth, in no way denies its existence or eliminates its functioning. For God is, whether man accepts and believes or not. So, the laws of the universe and the orderly process of it operate whether man consciously participates in it or not. But that conscious participation is one of the important steps forward that must be taken at this time.

As in my own past incarnations mentioned here, I had to grow, time after time, to understand the conscious operation; until, in the final step, I was in full conscious control and command over the entire process and could work in consciousness with my own Christ Self and the orderly procedure of the hierarchal system of the solar setup. This was not achieved in other lives, although cosmic consciousness or Christ awareness was achieved.

 

Unite Consciously with Spirit

So, many of you in the past eras, and even in the present time, have achieved this cosmic awareness, have come into communion with your own Christ Selves and are demonstrating many of the talents that are inherent in that Christ consciousness. But this step of conscious control, conscious awareness and conscious will, wed and united in every respect with the spirit within, the Father, is the next and the ultimate goal for you individually as disciples and helpmates, and the race as a whole in its evolutionary growth.

This has many implications involved, and some of them are being brought to the forefront of conscious awareness in many, the mass. They include the realization of life in other places and spheres. They include ability to communicate and to exchange with those energies and life forms which exist in other areas of creation. They also include the oneness of all men in a cooperative and coordinated plan.

Although this may seem quite difficult in the present activities of mankind on Earth today, it is not. And although we can see the inevitableness of it and we can ignore the self-willed acts that attempt to prevent or to rationalize why they should not be more closely attuned and cooperative, we are optimistic in our analysis and in our faith. It is a little more difficult for you, while incarnated on the Earth, to achieve this objectiveness and this optimism. But we wish to assure you that our optimism, our ability to be objective and impersonal, is the same that you will and must come to know in yourselves and for one another.

In a very small sense, you may borrow upon the storehouse or the bank of our own optimism and objectivity. We may borrow on the bank of your experiences in order to make our decisions from the etheric and celestial [angelic] realms which guide, guard and plan the process which I have described here in the evolutionary evolvement of man on this planet and in this solar system. This way we serve one another as helpmates. This way we lend to one another areas of experience and consciousness that are not necessary for the other to take upon himself personally.

After all, each soul is and has but a limited energy for his own individualization and his own participation in the whole pattern. No one is the total energy or force that exists. That only is God. God is the sum total of all creation, and all creation is but a part of the sum total of the All. This, in all humility, man must come to know and to accept and to work with. So, although one does achieve Christ powers, talents, and recognizes himself as a co-participant with the Creator, a son of God, he has not all the attributes, he has not all the faculties, he has not all the energy limitlessness that our Father God has; nor can he ever have this.

That is why we are dependent, one upon the other, for strength and expansion. If I can borrow of your experience and strength, then that makes me twice as strong and gives me twice as much perspective and opportunity. Multiply that by the billions of souls which now are incarnated on the Earth. And multiply those billions of souls by other billions who are existing and experiencing life force elsewhere in this solar system on other planes, planets and dimensions.

You have so little concept of this because of the previous limitations put upon you by the darkness and the ignorance of Earth life as it has been. But since one life has achieved the conscious awareness of this interdependence and interrelationship through an Earth body, coming into will and understanding of spiritual functioning consciously, then it is possible for all men. This life pattern was mine as Jesus.

That is not to say that other life patterns did not have the same and did not make great strides and marks upon the path for this final achievement. But repeating, I must say that that particular life stream, where I demonstrated the Christ consciousness in action, was the most simple and the total pattern necessary for achieving union with the inner spirit while controlling and functioning in a physical body. Therefore, this pattern or blueprint is ever there to be utilized while on the third dimensional frequency.

It was also the bridge between third dimensional form and resurrecting a fourth dimensional form, or light body. This provided the new man, the reborn soul, without leaving the frequency orbit of Earth challenges and limitations. For this reason I can guide and guard all who wish to come into this frequency orbit and experience the same consciousness, faculties and demonstrations. Anytime a soul reaches up and out toward these conquests, my own inner spirit is gravitated toward him and his goals. This is part of the adhesiveness and the complementary aspects of spiritual action within the one body of creation known as the son of man.

As sons of God we always have had this consciousness and ability, but not always on this planet and in this place. Therefore, for each one who wishes the adventure, as we like to call it, the experience here, these patterns, these routes are laid out for him to follow. And the one who has prepared the route is the one who is responsible to Spirit for bringing him through it, in a certain sense. That is why I still must call you my disciples, while incarnated on the Earth to reach this consciousness and achievement while in a mortal, physical, three-dimensional body.

 

Light Body Is Next Step

That all must come into his light body is the next step. This step must be taken consciously, for the pattern already has been laid down for it in that manner and for this time. The fact that the manner used was preset almost two thousand years ago has no significance or importance in this plan of operation. The significance only is that it exists. And as long as the path is blazed, others must use it and follow it; improving upon it if they can, and expanding it so that more than one, many, and all eventually, can travel it.

For this is the purpose of setting up this particular frequency dimension at all. Spirit’s overall plan always has been to have man experience all life that he wishes to experience, and to conquer consciously all life as a son of God should and does. Otherwise, why would he be given initially these faculties, if not to use them; and to use them in the service of God and of all His creation?

We must see, in addition to all of this, that the interrelationship and coordination with other levels of God’s created plan, His other areas developed for mankind’s experience, shall be and must be part of the one conscious achievement. His overall pattern of growth is to develop his faculties and to utilize his knowledge, and the knowledge of those with whom he can communicate.

So, as said before, I might borrow from you; as you are able to borrow from me in my experiences and in my achievements. Thus, we must lend to and borrow from one another in other spheres, on other planets and in other dimensions so that although we cannot have all experience personally, we can know of most experiences and in this way we can expand our consciousness. For the expansion and growth of the Son of God is limitless; since man is created, and has conscious awareness, of this limitless Creator.

Thus each man is a helpmate to each other man, even those that are presently invisible and unknown to him. Man also is a disciple of other men because he utilizes their experiences and their forerunning by following in certain footsteps that they have placed in blazing the paths of higher achievements in the evolutionary growth process. This must be the goal and the conscious desire of everyone in the Earth. It is no longer possible that the race be in darkness or in ignorance about the Creator’s business.

In my Father’s house are many mansions, and I have explored many of the rooms. I have left you the keys, and the doors are there for you to open. But you must consciously will this. Then the Father within each one will allow him the experience and show him the way, giving him those assistants who have made those explorations before him. In this way we aid one another, assist one another, and are neither higher nor lower than another. For there are areas of experience and understanding that many others may have which I personally never have had; and never can have, nor desire to have. But by sharing or borrowing through your experiences, I have expanded mine and I have grown that much more from within.

This willingness and this conscious desire to share and to expand, both with your fellowmen and with the God Self within, is the next and most important step for mankind upon the planet. The time is late. Mankind, as a group on the Earth, certainly is behind the prescribed schedule for this. But with the help of each and every one now incarnated, and those who are coming from all over the universe to assist in this lesson, we can and we will have a victory. So be it in truth. For this is truth, and you now must adhere to truth, the pattern of light and love. The way is clear. And I am the way, the light and the love of God. So be it. Jesus, who is Sananda of the Hierarchal Board of this solar system; and friend, brother, helpmate and disciple also.

Easter Unveiled

/ / 2 Comments

“Praise God from whom all blessings flow.” This affirmation from the Christian Doxology perfectly expresses our right-minded focus this Easter season. Let us all count our blessings, even in the midst of personal and planetary cleansings. Remember, out of crucifixion comes resurrection; they are two sides of one coin.

“All things work together for good for those who love God.” (Rom. 8:28) This Easter, dwell not on the crucifixion of this mortal world, but on the resurrection into I Am consciousness and demonstration.

The following links are to channelings, articles, meditations and podcasts on Motah Chronicles blog that address the metaphysical understanding of the Easter drama. They will help you reaffirm the eternal truths as patterned by Sananda as Christ Jesus of Nazareth. Peace be unto you, now and always. — Phillel

Jesus’ Last Words on the Cross

/ / 1 Comment

Channeled via Nada-Yolanda

 

IN THE CRUCIFIXION–RESURRECTION CEREMONY that I demonstrated as Jesus the Christ of Nazareth, I proved unto you that the balance between the mortal and the immortal is extremely delicate, and at all times it must be like a seesaw that goes back and forth between the mortal and the immortal expression; though you may be anchored well in the light; though you may have a cosmic mission of tremendous proportions, such as my mission in that lifetime was to set an entire pattern for an entire race going from third into fourth dimensional frequency. . . .

But I remind you of the example set upon the cross in order to demonstrate the resurrection of the light body. . . . Upon the cross I spoke many words that give you this clue as to the reason why the ceremony of crucifixion–resurrection of the light body is a balancing between third and fourth dimensional frequencies. Never was I totally in one nor was I totally in the other until Iwas able to demonstrate the resurrection fully. The resurrection demonstrated the ascension. The ascension then must demonstrate the redescent, in the seventh initiation.

But since mankind is going through the sixth initiation, or the crucifixion–resurrection of his own evolutionary body and frequency, we speak now of the example or the pattern that was sent forth on that one life span or stream that gave the pattern by which you could follow certain rules and understandings of that experience.

 

“This Day I Will See You in Paradise”

I spoke unto the two who were beside me on that cross in Golgotha and said, “This day I will see you in paradise.” It is the conscious awareness of the destiny of all who will seek Spirit to go beyond, to live immortally. Yet, I did not say to them, “You are in paradise.” Nor did I say I was in paradise. For I was upon the cross, as they were upon their crosses, crossing out the physical, waiting for the resurrection of the spirit, if the flesh and the spirit together accepted the higher force, the life immortal. This was done by one but not by the other.

So therefore we show again we have a choice, and we must give each one a choice. Even though two men go through the same experience, one will make one choice and one will make another. The free will of both is to be respected and to be allowed. For none are to be left out in the eternal ongoing, though one may take a great deal longer to arrive there than the other.

I said unto the one who accepted the demonstration, “This day I will see you in paradise.” But to the other I did not say, “You never will see paradise.” So therefore the conscious realization of the Christed being who is in the physical agony of his own body and his own crucifixion is to know that within that day or period or time he may move on to his immortal realization.

But I was not saying the physical did not count and the physical was not having the experience it was having. This applies to your own physical ailments, to your own mortal yearnings and disappointments, to your own unhappy relationships and disappointments of the worldly way in which you are living.

So, within that worldly way, if you will accept the higher teachings and the truth and will work in a spiritual manner, in that day and in that age and in that period you will see the results of the higher teachings, even though you are not experiencing them at that very moment and the body, the mind and the soul are in torment.

For the soul is one of the most important aspects to be considered in this crucifixion–resurrection. In many cases the souls of the people who are concerned must go through the karma and the cleansing more definitely than even the body. If the bodies are not suffering in some cases upon the Earth at this time, the souls are in torment or are having experiences that need reminding of the resurrection of the spirit through the soul experience.

This involves the astral planes, and the workers who are on the astral contacting those upon the Earth through various means and manners, including possession, obsession and other forms of communication, be they good or bad for the individual. It is part of the balancing, it is part of the growing, it is part of the cleansing from the crucifixion of the mortal world, the three-dimensional physical mortality, into the fourth dimensional immortality of the light body and spiritual consciousness.

 

“I Thirst”

I spoke again and said, “I thirst.” No immortal being in his light body suffers from the thirst and the pain and the anguish of the physical. By speaking these words, I said unto all men that in the agony of your crucifixion, your physical body will thirst, will hurt, will know disappointment, will know pain, will know the broken bone, will know the sword in the side, will know many, many things. The thorns upon your brow will be pressed down greatly into your conscious awareness.

This is no denial of fact. This is reality on that plane of action. For if I did not become aware of the physical and did not know that the body in which I was residing had this pain and this thirst, I could not have spoken thus. Yet, I did not drink of anything offered unto me, for I thirsted more for the Spirit at that moment than I thirsted for the physical, or the physical thirsted for its solace.

So, you must also become aware, in your physical pain, mental anguish, soul yearnings, that the thirst you feel is twofold and balanced. The thirst you feel is for some sort of comfort on that particular level where you are being crucified. But the thirst you really seek or the nourishment or the comfort you really seek is of the Spirit.

 

“Unto This Mission Was I Born”

It is there where I spoke again and said, “Father, unto this mission was I born, for this purpose did I come.”* This was the cry upon the cross. This is the cry for every man to speak in his crucifixion and resurrection of the light body. For this purpose did he come into physical incarnation: to cross out his physical yearnings, to cross out his physical appetites, to cross out his physical needs, in order to see the higher satisfactions, the higher foods, the higher waters of Spirit, to feed the spiritual body.

Yet, it is again a balance between the physical and the spiritual, the mortal and the immortal. For both are hungry and thirsty, and it is a matter of making a decision at the point of your crucifixion. Which will you give more power to at that moment, the spiritual or the physical? Had I given more attention unto the pain and the thirst of my physical body, I would not have been able to demonstrate the resurrection of the light body.

My concentration at that particular moment in time had to be on the thirst for God consciousness, the thirst for God realization, the thirst for my Father, my I Am Self to pour through me, rather than for man to pour waters upon my aching wounds and my dried-out body upon the cross. This must ever be the decision you make, the denials and the affirmations, the discernments you make between the physical and the spiritual, between the mortal needs and the immortal expression of the light body.

* From the ancient manuscript called the Peshitta, the authorized Bible of the Church of the East, George M. Lamsa renders the translation of Matthew 27:46 as: “My God, my God, for this I was spared!” Or, “This was my destiny.”

 

“Woman, Behold Your Son”

Finally, I also was able to recognize my responsibilities, and said unto John and Mary, “Woman, behold your son.” Man, disciple, friend, take care of this, who was and is my last and final physical and mortal responsibility upon the Earth planet.

At that moment in time upon the cross, [I recognized] that although I would resurrect in the light body, my responsibility to Earthly and mortal relationships and physical beings had to be transferred to Earthly mortal physical beings and not be my responsibility when I am in the light body, when I am in the total resurrected Self as I demonstrated following the crucifixion.

This again is the grave difficulty that all who are upon the cross of their own crucifixion–resurrection ceremony at this time must face. For there are too few of those going through the ceremony of the crucifixion–resurrection ceremony on Earth who are willing to give up their mortal responsibilities to children, husbands, wives, lovers, friends, businesses and so forth. They see them as their responsibilities. They feel karmic attachments to these mortal physical beings and areas of interest, and are unwilling to rescind and to turn over that which they have gathered unto their souls to others who are capable and willing to carry that further burden, responsibility and debt into the realm of the mortal.

This is very wide in implication. It is not to be understood, at this point, that everyone who comes into light consciousness must leave physically every relationship, every physical responsibility to business and to his own upkeep and care. For that is not what is intended here at all. It is the conscious burden or the sole responsibility that one takes upon himself and cannot go on into a spiritual mission because he feels that no one else, nothing else, will carry that burden, that responsibility or that karma for him; whereas there are many who are willing and able to carry forth that mission or to share that burden or to act independently of his particular function and aspect so that it is mutually carried.

So, this is not a treatise to say that all who come into the light body will throw over all physical jobs, livelihoods and responsibilities of a mortal nature. It is a balancing-out of that which is important and may hold you to the physical consciousness, emotional relationships and jobs, and from going on into your spiritual realizations.

 

“Unto Thee I Commend My Spirit”

When I spoke and said, “At last, Father, unto Thee I commend my spirit,” it was because from the physical I was able then to turn every atom of being into the spiritual consciousness and to release my body; which is the last responsibility of mortal man upon the Earth.

So, the final act was the responsibility of my relationships and karma. Mary is my soul counterpart [twin soul] and therefore my very intimate and personal responsibility on any plane on which we both are operating at the same time. And one’s own body is the last and final responsibility to the conscious mortal being. When the individual is ready to release every atom of his being to the spirit within for reevaluation, reconstitution, rehabilitation and transformation, then he is ready for the resurrection.

Though that may take several days, several weeks, several years, several lifetimes, it is still the same process inwardly, mentally, emotionally, physically. For spiritually we are in God’s keeping or Spirit’s keeping on all those levels: physical, mental and emotional.

There is no other power but God or Spirit. Therefore, there is no power of the mind, there is no power of the body, there is no power of the emotions or the astral levels or the past karma, that binds you. By releasing each one of these areas in its own particular place and time, you release your conscious responsibility to others, to the world itself and to your own physical incarnation, in the steps that are appropriate in the time that is appropriate for you on whatever levels you are being made aware at that time: physical, mental or emotional.

You cannot do it all at once, and would be in grave imbalance if you tried to do it all at once. So, be very circumspect, be very cautious, be very discerning when you do release each of these areas to your spiritual Self. But know that in releasing each of these areas consciously and dedicatedly, you then step into the tomb.

In the tomb of darkness, in the tomb of that period of so-called death, you are in a state of conscious rapport, dedication and faithfulness to the Spirit that shall do the work within those darkened periods, within that darkened area, within that blankness, and shall write upon that blankness the whole new life, the whole new body, the whole new responsibilities, the whole new man of light, of truth, of resurrection.

When this falls upon the ears and the eyes of one’s disciples, friends, fellowmen, as the Holy Spirit fell upon the ears and the eyes of the disciples who were forewarned of this experience, then the knowledge is spread, is amplified and grows. But until that time it is not accepted, it is not well received, it is not well grounded in the Earth or in the dimension on which this experience is to occur.

So, if you have rebuff, if you have disbelief, if you have disagreement about the process of the crucifixion–resurrection ceremony, then you must realize it is still part and parcel of the entire initiation. It is not for you then to reexamine the two areas where you have to make your demonstration, those two areas being the mortal and the immortal bodies. For if you dwell too much upon the mortal body, you will begin to feel the anguish, the thirst, the regrets and the sorrow.

But there was no sorrow, there was no pain, there was no anguish that could not be superseded by the realization that the immortal aspect, the light body, the resurrection, was shortly to follow, according to Spirit’s will. For that had been predestined, that had been forewarned, that had been accepted.

So, the dwelling consciousness must at that point be upon that which is to come, not that which is the present: the suffering, the crossing-out, the denial. This is the pattern, this is the way, this is the function for all to follow. Whatever area you are experiencing in or expressing, let this be the example through which you can follow and apply this knowledge.

For those who fail at the crucifixion–resurrection ceremony are those who fall back into mortal consciousness and deny unto themselves the fact that the resurrection is the other side of the coin of the crucifixion they are going through. It is hand in glove. The two may not be separated. They are one experience.

As long as it takes you to have this realization, that’s how long it will take you as a soul to go through the crucifixion–resurrection ceremony. As stated before, it may be one or more lifetimes, it may be one or more years. But that is not the point. The important point to express here is that as you recognize the crucifixion, you are expecting the resurrection.

The resurrection is in the divine pattern for all men — as I lived it and demonstrated it through my life’s incarnation known as Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ Messiah of the Jews — who carry the truth, who know the law and who are prepared to live the right way. Amen. So be it in truth.

Symbols of Easter

University of Life Archives

 

In 2025, Palm Sunday is April 13th; Passover is April 13th; Good Friday is April 18th; Easter Sunday is April 20th.

 

IN THESE LATTER DAYS prior to the Second Coming, we are in a transition between two historic stages of man’s spiritual evolution on planet Earth: we are crossing from the Piscean Age into the New Age of Aquarius. It is as though we and the race of man collectively have come to the city gate of Jerusalem as Christ Jesus did at Passover, just before his resurrection.

Jerusalem means “habitation or foundation of peace.” It is the “city of peace.” Also, Jerusalem is known as the “city of David”; so, we also can think of Jerusalem as the city or dwelling place of love. As we rend fully the seventh veil from our consciousness, we are moving into the Aquarian Age, which is characterized by the Seventh Ray qualities of divine peace and love. We are accepting the Christ vibration of peace and love on the planet. We are symbolically but quite literally entering Jerusalem, the time and the place of peace and love.

As the avant-garde for the race of man, we as light workers in this Easter cycle must example how to work with peace and love, the new standard for the Aquarian Age. Many ancient myths and symbols of cultures all around the world, before and after Christ, correlate with present-day symbols of Easter: tales of death and rebirth, palm fronds, unleavened bread, crowns and crosses. They are not mere fables and tokens. They portray, just as Christ Jesus exampled, spiritual events of universal patterns that really are experienced when one rises up out of mortal consciousness and material life into spiritual consciousness and light-body form.

In channelings through Nada-Yolanda, Sananda often has reminded us that we are experiencing monumental changes individually and planetarily. In the Latter Days, the transformations are as dramatic as when Jesus resurrected into his light form and ascended. Everyone is affected mentally, emotionally and physically. Unlike when he incarnated as Jesus, Sananda is not speaking to us now in parables, but in real terms.

So, the time is upon us to translate the myths, stories and symbols of Easter into physically tangible demonstrations. The time is nigh for the 144,000 light servers to anchor higher consciousness and to manifest divine peace and love in life. Now is the time for each of us to follow the example of Christ and enter Jerusalem.

 

Enter Jerusalem

Entering the Aquarian Age of peace and love is like entering Jerusalem. The citizens of Jerusalem celebrated the Messiah entering their city for Passover. We, too, should rejoice at the coming of the spiritual experiences we will have in this Easter cycle that will help us anchor Christ consciousness on Earth. Our life up to this point has been long and arduous. But we have reached the city or the phase of peace. We have rent every veil placed before man’s consciousness of his knowing, believing and beginning to live according to truth and spiritual principles. Reaching and entering the New Age of Aquarius — the gate of the city, so to speak — is a great accomplishment for all of us. We should be happy and give thanks.

The citizens of Jerusalem took palm branches and went out to meet Jesus. Since ancient times, the palm branch has been a symbol of victory. Entering the New Age is a victory of the light. But the palm frond also has a deeper metaphysical interpretation. Just as the Christ entered the gate to the city of peace and love amid palm fronds, the energies and inspirations of our Christ Self enter through the gate or crown chakra at the top of our head.

In the Far East, the thousand-petaled lotus represents the opening of the crown chakra. In the Middle East, the crown of a palm tree, with it’s spray of fronds shooting up and out, indicates the same. Therefore, while in meditation, one might receive a vision of a palm tree whose fronds are completely open at the top. Or one might see streamers of light coming out of the top of one’s head, like palm fronds at the top of a palm tree. These images represent the opening of the crown chakra, preparing one for a new level of integration with the I Am Self.

In this Easter cycle, we all should expect the opening of our crown chakra for greater oneness with our I Am Self. In the Book of Revelation, John saw a vision of the servants of God after the Second Coming. They were too numerous to count and they were from every nation, tribe, race and language. All of them were holding palm branches in their hands. This scene indicates not only that they were victorious, but that they mastered the ability of maintaining balance while their crown chakras were open for anchoring the second coming of their own Christ Selves.

 

The Crown

The crown is another symbol of Easter. During Jesus’ sentencing to be crucified, a crown of thorns was placed on his head. Throughout history, a crown has represented the bearer’s relationship to what is above or divine. It marked the integration of the celestial to the terrestrial. Additionally, the crown’s circular shape signified perfection and eternity. So, unlike royal crowns of gold and jewels which represent divine power and attributes, the crown of thorns epitomizes mortal error and resistance. Hatred, greed, lies, jealousy and the like are the thorns of mortal consciousness that crowned the head of Christ, placed on him by society.

Our entrance now into the cycle of peace and love should be like Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem. He did not enter Jerusalem with a crown of thorns on his head. Neither should we enter Aquarius with a crown of thorns on our heads. Although Jesus was constantly challenged by others, he never denied the truth of his being. As a child of God, he held to the perfection as God had created him. He would accept no lesser conception of himself. So must we.

We should never feel as though we are inadequate to demonstrating peace and love in any of the experiences we will face in these Latter Days. Like Jesus, we may expect to run into the negative resistance and false judgments of others. So, we can expect to have a crown of thorns placed on our heads. But what we must guard against is accepting those error thoughts, feelings and judgments. By agreeing that false statements about our character are true when they are not, we place the crown of thorns on our own heads.

Unless we take the crown of thorns off our head, our high Self, Spirit and the Hierarchy cannot place the true crown of Spirit on us. Yolanda has said that in her early spiritual development, a crown in her dreams, visions and meditations represented reaching a higher level of achievement, another phase or an initiation into the next progressive level of development. Later on, however, the crown was converted from something symbolic into a literal, functioning tool within her being. It represented her crown chakra, which became activated to do Spirit’s will and work on Earth.

Since ancient times in Rome, Egypt, Mexico and many other places, crowns were associated with the sun, especially its rays. The rays of the Elohim, the seven flames of God, descending into one’s mortal being is the true meaning of these ancient symbols of a crown associated with the rays of the sun. They depict God, by way of the rays of life, using Its children as instruments for divine purposes.

The experiences of Yolanda and many others of us could not have happened had we imposed a crown of thorns on ourselves by thinking we could not possibly be worthy of interacting in such wonderful and constructive ways with Spirit. Mortal attitudes that limit our self-worth not only constrict the inflow of Spirit through our crown chakra, but they cause our spiritual development to atrophy. Our crown center and mind, the medium between the mortal self and the high Self, must remain unobstructed. We must enter the New Age with the true crown God created within us functioning perfectly. For we won’t necessarily know the time or the situation when Spirit will want to pour divine light and love through us to the world.

We give thanks to Spirit that we have reached this new phase of divine peace and love. Before we go any further, let us reassess our consciousness to see whether we are wearing a crown of thorns. If we are, let us cast it aside. We will enter the Aquarian Age with the palms of our crown chakra open. To our Christ Self we say: “Hosanna, I Am Self! Blessed are you who come in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!”

 

Crucifixion & Resurrection

Easter Sunday, the day of resurrection, marks the culmination of the symbols of Easter. For us and the race of man it means greater spiritual manifestation and service to our Father-Mother God. In our review of the symbols of Easter, let us see how we can relate them to our next step of resurrecting into the light.

In this transition of the Latter Days, we are being guided gradually to shift our emphasis away from the cleansings and purifications characteristic of the sixth step, or Sixth Ray, and towards accepting our resurrection, including the ascension that is the seventh step, or Seventh Ray, for the Age of Aquarius now dawning.

The seventh step of peace and love will require us to focus more on the light and less on the darkness. Our priorities will have to be reassigned. The bulk of our time and energy will be on the construction of divine peace rather than on the destruction of error; on crystallizing the light rather than decrystallizing mistakes; on actively materializing the love of God rather than resisting evil.

In the Easter cycle, we have a golden opportunity to set the proper tone by becoming more peaceful and loving towards ourselves and others. As light workers, we are to be the leavening by which all are raised into the light. Thoughts, desires and actions of peace and love are the leavening. But in order for us to be the leaven and embody peace and love, we will have to transfer our consciousness away from being mesmerized by the remaining shortcomings within ourselves and the inevitable instances of resistance to love and light we read and hear about going on in the world. To accomplish this we will have to think of ourselves as not being on the cross of personal cleansings and crucifixions that have been so prevalent in our lives.

As the vanguard for the race of man, we must lead by example. Easter is our time to come down off the cross. Only then can we be the kind of vessel through which Spirit and the Hierarchy can implant the new Christ matrix of peace, love, cooperation and coordination that we are to hold before the Second Coming.

As recorded in the writings of a Christian living in the fourth century A.D., in Sir James Frazer’s The Golden Bough, the authenticity of Jesus’ resurrection after being crucified was anything but settled. Throughout Western Asia and the Mediterranean there were whole populations who for centuries before the time of Christ celebrated the death and resurrection of their deities around Easter time.

He was called Osiris in Egypt; Tammuz in Babylonia; Adonis in Greece, Syria and Cyprus; and Attis in Phrygia, now central Turkey, just to name a few. Those people thought that the relatively recent story of Jesus’ death and resurrection was just a cheap imitation of theirs. A heated controversy ensued over whose deity was the original and, thus, the true one.

Few realized back then that Jesus actually demonstrated that the basic idea of their myths and legends of resurrection was true. Today, few people on Earth realize that the Easter story is their personal story. It is the story not of a god but of man reevolving out of mortal life into immortal life. By rising above the physical, rising above the soul and resurrecting into the light body, Jesus exampled that this is the pattern for everyone.

This Easter, let us project yet again to all people, as we have done for so many years, that the myth of death and resurrection is no myth. It is based on spiritual reality. The story of Easter is not about the achievement of God or a god. It is about man’s ability to resurrect out of every test and crucifixion through the presence and operation of Spirit within each of us. Taking this one step further, we who are working consciously with the hierarchal plan and program must believe that we are resurrecting into the New Age.

At first glance, it may seem as though little has changed; that there is just as much violence in the world as ever. What we are seeing are the continuing reverberations to the light anchored since the beginning of the Latter Days. Individually, we too are still carrying the residue of the struggles, torments, tests and challenges of this transition period. We’re still balancing out.

But upon closer inspection, can we truly say that past challenges are controlling our lives as vigorously now as they were in prior years? Aren’t our spiritual convictions stronger? Aren’t we using spiritual principles to direct our lives more than ever before? Monitoring the race of man collectively, the Hierarchy has determined that we are passing into the seventh step of peace and love, the hallmarks of Aquarius.

 

Passover

The occurrence of Jesus’ resurrection at the time of Passover dramatically brought together the feast day’s celebration of the Israelites’ freedom from Egyptian bondage with his demonstration of mankind’s freedom from the bondage of physical existence.

At Passover, unleavened bread is used as a symbol of freedom. In metaphysical terms, we can liken it to the loosening of soul knots that occurred during the cleansing phase, which has helped us to be free of them. At Pentecost [celebrated on the fiftieth day after Passover], otherwise known as the Feast of Weeks, two loaves of leavened bread are prepared as the firstfruits offering of the harvest. In this Easter cycle, as we pass into manifesting the firstfruits of peace and love, we should now begin to replace the symbol of freedom from error, unleavened bread, with the symbol of spiritual action and manifestation, leavened bread.

In his Metaphysical Bible Dictionary Charles Fillmore, cofounder of Unity School of Christianity, defined what leaven signifies: “When the mind is raised up through affirmations of God’s omnipresent substance and life, we are not only fed but there is a surplus. . . . It is not the outward demonstration that counts, but the increase of substance in mind and body that always follows the faithful application of the divine law. Whatever line of thought is received into consciousness goes on working until it is rooted out by another line of thinking . . . [which then] manifests fully in the outer life.”

The line of thinking we want to root out is thinking predominantly in terms of crucifixions, personal sufferings and torments, cleansings of errors and the elimination of evil. The line of thinking we want to replace it with is that of the seventh step: peace and love. The Hierarchy has told us that in these end times we must measure all our actions in terms of the First Ray (divine will and divine law) and the Seventh Ray (divine love and peace). We must work for cooperation and coordination. Divine peace and love are the spiritual ideals we must employ to rend fully the seventh veil from man’s consciousness. These qualities we now embrace to become the leaven within mass consciousness for Christ’s Second Coming.

 

The Cross

The cross is probably the most famous symbol of Easter. In the religious history of man, various forms of crosses have been important to cultures the world over. For example, for ancient Egyptians, the ankh or ansate cross, with a loop at the top, was the symbol of earthly life as well as of life after death. Actually, the ankh predates Earth history. The Saturnian Council or Hierarchal Board, headquartered on Saturn, exercises it as a symbol for utilizing the power of God’s creative energy.

In Mesopotamia, the Greek or quadrate cross, with four equal arms, is the sign for heaven. It is also the symbol for the Fourth Ray of Life, representing the cosmic idea “as above, so below”; as in heaven, so on Earth. Certain ancient depictions of the cross in Mexico symbolize world unity. One drawing from an ancient civilization in Peru shows a silhouette of a man of light; his arms outstretched, crowned by a sun shooting out its rays. At the intersection of two lines forming a cross is his heart.

To many Christians, the cross represents the crucifixion and death of Jesus. To others, it conveys a more positive symbol of salvation. Over the years, we have projected out the thought to take Jesus off the cross, to stop thinking in terms of the mortal suffering and torments of Jesus. Instead, focus on the positive result of crossing out error, which is resurrecting into spiritual life as an eternal child of God.

This Easter, it is time that we take ourselves off the cross, take the thought of crucifixion out of our consciousness. The cycle of revealing and crucifying errors within ourselves and humanity is now being eclipsed by the resurrection and ascendancy of the Seventh Ray principles of divine love and peace.

As with the symbol of the Easter lily, our resurrection is in full bloom. At this very moment, we are being prepared for our next step in anchoring the Christ vibration for Earth. As we see and be the peace and love of the Seventh Ray, so must it be for all on Earth.

Purification Through Demonstration

/ / 7 Comments

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.
