27. Your Christ self

NOTE: This is an excerpt from the book The Least You Should Know About Life.

On the chart, the figure that sits at the nexus of the figure-eight is your Christ self. It is the mediator between the I AM Presence and the lower being lost in duality, specifically your conscious self. We might say that your Christ self is a spiritual teacher that is sent to you after you lost contact with your higher Being. It is inside your container of self and thus you can reach it at any time by focusing on your heart and activating your intuitive faculties. Jesus talked about the Christ self in the following quotes:

And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; (John 14:16)

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (John 14:26)

It does not take any superhuman or psychic abilities to hear the still, small voice of your Christ self. However, take note that your Christ self is not at the level of your physical body and the normal, conscious awareness of most people. Nor is it at the level of your emotional body or even your mental body and the intellectual, or rational mind. Your Christ self does not descend below the level of your identity body, and thus it is up to you to raise your attention to that level.

Unfortunately, the world programs you to focus your attention at the lower levels. Some people are very focused on the material world, some are very emotional and some are very intellectual. All of them find it difficult to hear their Christ selves. Thus, you must develop the ability to focus your attention on the higher part of your Being and on the spiritual realm. Jesus talked about the importance of attuning to your Christ self when he said:

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matthew 6:33)

In order to hear your Christ self, you may also have to silence the loud voice of your ego that seeks to overpower your Christ self or seeks to rationalize away your intuitive insights. In fact, your ego is constantly trying to set itself up as the ultimate authority in your life, a position that should be occupied by your Christ self until the Conscious You attains oneness with your I AM Presence. The ego does this by setting up certain beliefs as being infallible, thereby creating a mental box around your mind. Thus, many people dare not look beyond their mental boxes to hear the voice of their Christ selves. The Christ self is ALWAYS seeking to lead you outside ANY mental box and thus it challenges the “infallible” beliefs of the ego.

As you follow the spiritual path, you gradually put on the mind of Christ, meaning that you gain the vision and discernment that empowers you to see through the many illusions created by the mind of anti-christ. This helps you reclaim the purity of your four lower bodies from the selfish beliefs that cause your suffering. It is through the mind of Christ that you can take dominion, first over your four lower bodies, and then over the material realm.

At first, the Conscious You will see your Christ self as an external teacher, but you will gradually build a deeper sense of oneness with the teacher. This leads to the mystical union whereby you become the bride of Christ and attain oneness with your Christ self. You can then accept that the Conscious You has attained its rightful position as the Christ in your being. You have become the Living Christ.

You will then be “As Above, so below,” meaning that your I AM Presence can now act through your lower being. Your sense of identity in this world reflects your spiritual individuality, anchored in your I AM Presence. You have then taken dominion over the Earth, as symbolized by the globe under the feet of the Vitruvian man (on the chart). You can then claim with Jesus, “My Father worketh hitherto, and I work” (John 5:17).
