Flow
with the in-breath and the out-breath
A message from God the Creator, Monday, March 28, 2005.
NOTE: This dictation was delivered through Kim Michaels at the Shangra-la
Easter conference.
I AM the Being that people call God. I AM the Creator of your world.
I AM the Creator of yourselves. I have come to you once
in power, and now I come to you in love and tenderness.
I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the ending, the power
and the love. You see, there is the out-breath and the in-breath of
God, spoken of in many Eastern religions. The out-breath is the power
of God, the outgoing thrust that sends out the individualizations and
the world of form. And then, the in-breath is the action of love, where
those who become aware of who they are, those who become aware of their
source, return to the one in love.
And how do you gain that awareness, and how do you become aware that
the greatest love in your Being is to be one with your source? You see,
you cannot reach that awareness as long as you see your source as being
outside of yourself, as being separate from yourself, as being different
– other – than yourself.
God is more than power
Yet it is necessary, in the act of creation, to have the out-breath,
to have the phase of power, that sends out the individual Spirit Sparks
and sends out the differentiated forms. Yet what has happened on Earth,
and on certain other planets that are not your concern, is that the
self-conscious beings, the individual Spirit Sparks, have become so
focused on the power that sent them into this world, that they have
created an image that the power is all there is to God.
And so, they look at the universe, they look up into the night sky,
and they see the billions of stars and they realize that the power that
created this vast universe is so far beyond their own power. And oh
how easy it is for them to reason that that power must be outside themselves,
it must come from some being up in the sky who is all-powerful. And
so they build the image of the god in the sky, the all-powerful being.
And then, when they separate themselves further from that god in the
sky, fear enters the being. And when that fear is multiplied, they come
to fear the being in the sky, they come to fear his will. And thus they
build on to the image, and now it is not just a being in the sky; it
is an angry being in the sky, a judgmental being who wants to impose
his will upon them and restrict them and punish them.
And then comes in those who have used their gift of free will to rebel
against the Creator, to rebel against their own source. And they want
to control, and so they create a religion which says that unless you
obey the angry god in the sky, you will burn forever in hell.
But you see, my children, I AM not the angry god in the sky, and I was
never that god. Yes, I am in the sky, because without me was not anything
made that was made, so my Being is within everything. But you see, I
am also in you, because otherwise how could you have been made? And
that is why Jesus said that, “The kingdom of God is within you.”
And you will never find me as long as you are looking for me outside
yourself.
The great turning point
You see, my beloved, all of the people on planet Earth who are currently
open to the spiritual path, the spiritual side of life, all of these
people have reached the turning point, where the out-breath stops and
the in-breath is ready to begin. Yet, because the soul has separated
itself from its source, and has forgotten the original purpose for which
it was created and has been misled into actually resisting that original
purpose, the soul cannot of its own will merge itself with, immerse
itself in, the in-breath of God that calls it back to oneness with
its source.
And so the soul is suspended in time and space, in a no-man’s
land – a no-god’s land – where it does not know in
which direction to move. It does not know how to free itself. It is
trapped, but it is trapped only because it is worshipping an idol, a
false image of God and God’s intent.
And so the soul knows that cycles have turned, and it is time to start
the in-breath, but it does not know how. It knows it needs to find
something, and it keeps looking for it outside itself. And the catch-22
is that you can only start the in-breath, the return to Spirit, by
surrendering the outer will of the ego and merging yourself with the
higher will that so many human beings call the will of God, the external
God.
And as long as you think that God is external, you will not want to
submit yourself to it, because deep within your soul, your soul knows
that you cannot return to your source by submitting yourself to an external
will. You can return to source only by reconnecting to the will of your
own higher being that is inside yourself. And that is why Jesus said
that the kingdom of God cannot come with observation, it cannot come
by following an outer religion or an outer practice.
The kingdom of God will not come for you as long as you are looking
for it outside yourself. It will come only when you realize that it
is inside yourself, because your Self is an individualization of your
source.
What is the self?
And so what is that self that is you? The self is the self that makes
choices. And so many people have lost contact with that self to such
a degree that many of their choices are subconscious, even unconscious.
They have long ago given away their freedom to make free, conscious
choices, based on full knowledge, full wisdom, of what the choice entails
and what the consequences are. So they are allowing the forces of this
world to make choices for them, yet even that is a choice.
I gave you the gift of free will, but you see, there are no free lunches,
as they say. And the gift of free will comes with a price; you cannot
stop choosing. At any moment you are making choices. Even if you choose
not to choose, you are still choosing. That is why the prophets of old
said, “Choose life!”
Because if you do not choose life, you have chosen death. Death is the
separation from your source, and your source is like a river that flows.
And when you separate yourself from the flow of God, that is when you
enter the consciousness of death. And so what I desire so much to have
all people realize is that my will is not external, my will is not a
restriction of who you are.
My will is to see you be all that I created you to be, a God-free spiritual
Being who is participating in the great drama of life, the out-breath
and the in-breath of God. You are flowing with the cosmic flow, started
with the out-breath, and you are now at the point where you are ready,
by your own choosing, to say, “I have traveled far enough in this
world of form. I have seen all there is to see, and I realize that behind
the outer manifestations, even behind all of the beauty in this universe,
there must be something more. And I want to know what it is. I, of my
own free choice, I, of my own love to find that more, I choose to open
my heart and search for it.”
The cosmic educational system
And when you come to that point, where you can make that choice out
of love and not out of fear, then you have started the in-breath of
the return to your source. And some religions have described that process,
but even those have given an incorrect image of the process. Because
they make it seem like, when you return to your source, you merge into
the all and you cease to be.
And so many human beings have looked at this scenario, and they have
looked at the world and all the complications and all the suffering,
and they have said, “But if I participate in this drama just to
return to a state of nothingness, of non-being, then what is the point
of it all? Is it not meaningless, is it not just a treadmill, a merry-go-round?”
But you see, I did not create you for the purpose that you should go
into the world and go through all kinds of suffering, only then to return
and lose the individuality you have built in the process. I did not
create you to just go out and return. I created you to go out, and in
the process of going out and returning to oneness, you would become
more than I created you to be.
You see, my beloved, Jesus and Mother Mary have explained through this
messenger that planet Earth is the schoolroom for your souls. You are
here to learn and rise higher in the grades of life, until you can pass
the final exam and move to a higher level of learning. And so when you
graduate from Earth, you move to the next level of the cosmic educational
system. And then, you start another process of growth that leads to
another exam, and so on and so forth. But that process does not go on
forever.
I AM the Creator of this world of form, including the material universe
and all the many levels of the spiritual realm through which you can
ascend. But as planet Earth is a schoolroom for your souls, the entire
world of form is a schoolroom for your greater Beings. And when you
have worked your way through the levels, you can reach the point, where
your awareness is so expanded – yet you still maintain your individuality,
your experience that you have built, your treasure laid up in Heaven
– that you are now at the level of awareness, where you can create
your own world.
And by ascending through the levels in the world that I have created,
you have gathered experience, you have internalized that experience
to where you know how to create a world that will not collapse upon
itself, that will not self-destruct, but that will indeed form an upward
spiral, so that the Spirit Sparks you send out of yourself can then
grow and become more than you created them to be.
I AM a cosmic teacher
And so you see, I AM a cosmic teacher. I create a world out of myself,
out of my own Being. And then I create self-conscious extensions of
myself. They are created in my image and likeness, but not in the fullness
of the consciousness of a Creator. I send them into the world, and if
they are willing to follow the out-breath and the in-breath, to become
more through the force of love, then they too can become creators and
create their own worlds. And this is how life is perpetuated and has
been perpetuated in a way that cannot be expressed in words because
the human mind and human words cannot comprehend the reality of the
consciousness of God.
You can experience that reality by going into the kingdom of God within
you. But the moment you start processing that experience, through the
outer mind and the outer words, you must inevitably turn it into concepts
that can be expressed in words. And therefore, you run up against the
limitation that if something is in existence, it must have had a beginning
and it must have an ending. And so, what was before the beginning? Was
there ever a time, when there was nothing?
But you see, that line of reasoning has meaning for the world of form
in which you live because that world did have a beginning. It had a
beginning with me, when I reached the point, where I decided to create
and I said, “Let there be light!” And thus this world will
have an ending, when it returns to its source. But that ending will
not be a cataclysmic ending, where this world will burn in the fires
of hell. It will be a self-transcendence because the last Spirit Spark
has reached the point of self-knowledge, of self-awareness, and therefore
graduates. And so the world will not be burned or destroyed; it will
simply rise to a higher level.
Truth is beyond the outer mind
And this is the concept that cannot be understood by the outer mind.
And you might hear, in the words, that even the mind through which I
am speaking this cannot verbalize the reality that I AM, the reality
that life is. Because it cannot be verbalized, it cannot be described
in a religious teaching. And thus, a religion was never given for the
purpose of giving you the absolute truth about God, because the absolute
truth about God is beyond what can be expressed in any words or concepts.
It can, however, be experienced, and that experience is the highest
meaning of the concept of the “key of knowledge.” The key
of knowledge is what unlocks the door to the kingdom of God within you.
And it is when you are willing to take a religious teaching only as
a tool for stretching your mind, until your outer mind becomes so perplexed
by the contradictory questions it brings up, that you finally get to
the point, where either through exhaustion or frustration or through
realization, experience and love, you give up trying to solve the cosmic
enigma, the cosmic puzzle, with the outer mind. And so you say, “There
must be another way, there must be a better way to understand the reality
of God.”
And that is the moment when your mind, which is designed to serve in
the out-breath, the outgoing cycle of you experiencing the world, when
that mind can finally become still. And then you have a cosmic interval,
where the outer mind has become still. And in that stillness, the conscious
you can then go beyond the outer mind and direct its attention within
and discover the true kingdom, the reality of who you are and the source
from which you came.
That is the moment when your journey home begins. And that is the moment,
where I will be with you and where you have the opportunity to experience
the unconditional love, the tenderness that I have for you, each one
of you.
My capacity of love is infinite
Truly, I AM a Being far beyond the human limitations. My capacity of
love is infinitely greater than that of a human being. You cannot understand
how I could love each and every one of you individually. And the best
example of that is that when I sent one of my sons into this world to
show you the unconditional love I have, then those who could not understand
that love, those who were were not willing to open their hearts to that
love, they took him, put him on a pedestal and said, “Oh God loved
only Jesus. He loved him more than us, for Jesus was his only son.”
But you see, it is not so. Without me was not anything made that was
made. I have created you out of my own Being, and the force that drove
me to create you was pure, unconditional love. And that love is beyond
time and space. It has never diminished from the moment you were created.
And no matter what you have done, no matter what sins you think you
have committed according to some outer, human standard, my love for
you is the same at this very instant, as it was at the instant your
Spirit Spark was created out of my own Being.
And therefore, at any moment, in your journey in time and space, you
can reconnect to that love, you can rediscover that love. You can accept
it into your being, where it will truly quicken you because the perfect
love will cast out all of your fears, the fears that spring from separation
and the fear that you cannot return to your source because you have
somehow compromised yourself and I will not receive you. But you see,
I will always receive you—when you use your free will to receive
me.
The God behind the Creator
Drink me, while I am drinking thee, because truly you are here to become
all that I AM. And in the process of becoming all that I AM, you become
more than I AM. I become more through you, and thus all of creation
is magnified. And thus the God behind me, the God behind the Creator
of your world of form, is magnified. And that God is truly a Being,
but that Being is even beyond the comprehension of human beings. That
Being is a consciousness, an idea of life, an idea of growth that is
beyond time, beyond space, beyond beginning, beyond ending.
And so you say, “If there is a consciousness of growth that leads
from a lower state to a higher state, where does it end, it must have
an ending?” But you see, there is no ending because consciousness
can expand indefinitely. And there is no ending unless you decide that
there is an ending to your consciousness, unless you decide to set yourself
apart from the flow of life and contract, until you have contracted
so much that you cannot maintain a sense of individuality. And thus,
you are obliterated in what some have seen as the fires of hell.
But it is truly the fire of the love within you that will no longer
allow the separation. So your individuality is returned to its source
and then instantly recreated without any memory of what caused it to
separate. So yes, there is the potential that a soul can die in what
is called the second death. Because the soul that was, the soul that
had become what it was through its journey in the world of form, is
gone. Yet the original Spirit Spark, the original design, is instantly
recreated and can then start another journey, that hopefully will lead
to a better result.
And so there is beginning and ending, yet there is no beginning and
ending. And this is the mystery and the enigma that you cannot solve
with the human mind. But by being willing to stretch the mind, by pondering
this mystery, you can come to the point of transcending the mind and
thus experiencing the reality behind the enigma, the reality of the
Being of God from which you came. And that is my highest will for you,
that you experience who you really are and that you then have the courage
to express who you are in this world, so that the rest of this world
can be awakened to the reality of its source, instead of going down
into self-denial, the denial of the source.
Because, you see, the out-breath will inevitably turn into the in-breath,
so all that has gone out will return to a sense of oneness with its
source. And there are two ways to return. There is the return of self-annihilation,
whereby the consciousness that was sent out obliterates itself through
self-denial. And there is the way of return of self-transcendence, whereby
the consciousness that was sent out grows to become all that it was
created to be and then goes on to become more. And in becoming that
more, it is not obliterated—it is not returned to nothingness.
It keeps expanding and growing, and this is the flow of life.
Human beings love asking, “Why is this so?” The answer cannot
be formulated in a way that can be grasped by the human mind. But the
answer can be experienced by going within. There is an answer, there
is a reason, there is a meaning. The key to experiencing that answer
is to experience love in the ultimate sense, to merge with love and
become love. And then, you will know the answer to the question of life.
That answer is available to you at any time. Stretch your minds and
find the answer! Stretch your minds and find me, find my love, discover
it, accept it and let it transform your being so you can BE who you
are and more.
I seal you in my love, which knows no bounds and no conditions. It is
done.
