from Jesus:
In the Vedas you find the
concept of the Atman. This is seen as an oversoul or as the original
soul, and all other souls are simply divisions of that one soul. This
means that, in reality, all people came from the same source, namely
the Atman.
As I explain throughout this website, most people on Earth have descended
into a state of consciousness that is dominated by duality and separation.
This causes people to think in linear terms, and many think that because
their neighbor appears so different based on outer characteristics,
that neighbor must have come from a different source. In extreme cases,
this is what leads people to reason that their neighbor is of the devil
and they are of God, and therefore it is justified that they kill their
neighbor.
One of my main purposes for this website is to help people rise above
that consciousness of duality. I desire to see people attain a greater
sense of union with their Christ self and I AM Presence, which leads
them to see that they are individualizations of God. When you do reach
this sense of awareness, the next step is to realize that all other
people are also individualizations of God. This can then lift people
out of the linear way of thinking that causes so much division and strife
on Earth, and it can eventually lead people to experience the same sense
of oneness that we experience here in Heaven. In other words, I am very
different from some my colleagues in the Ascended Host, yet because
we realize that we came from the same source, we never see each other
as enemies.
To expound on the concept of the Atman, the world of form was created
by a self-conscious spiritual being that most people call God, but which
I prefer to call the Creator. Our Creator created new life out of its
own Presence, is owned Being. As the first act of creation, the Creator
created two beings that represent the Alpha, the masculine, and the
Omega, the feminine, polarity. These two beings then created a number
of other beings, and each of these beings created other beings. So what
you now see is that you have a structure, almost like a family tree,
that leads from God through Alpha and Omega and through a number of
lines that branch out until you reach each lifestream on Earth.
The essential concept here is that when God created Alpha and Omega,
he created them out of his own being, and thus they are not somehow
separated from God. They are individualizations of, expressions of,
God, and so are all other lifestreams that were ever created. Your soul
is a division of a greater soul, and you are not separated from your
source. It is only the dualistic state of mind that causes you to think
you are separated. My point is that every human being on Earth originally
came out of a lineage that has a number of levels. This lineage is a
hierarchical structure, and if you keep tracing your personal lineage,
you will eventually end up with God the Creator.
The Earth is currently a very diversified planet with many different
types of lifestreams that came from many different spiritual lineages.
So it is not correct to say that Helios and Vesta are the spiritual
parents of all people on Earth—although they do hold the office
of spiritual hierarchs over the physical sun. To really talk about a
spiritual lineage, you would have to go all the way back to the original
beings created by the Creator. Yet there might be many levels between
a human being on Earth and the Creator, so the family tree becomes very
complex and diversified. So, yes, your lifestream did have a set of
spiritual parents that created you and potentially a number of other
lifestreams. And the people on Earth come from many different spiritual
parents.
The important concept is that each human being is a descendant of a
particular spiritual lineage. When you increase your awareness of this,
you will begin to reconnect to your source. You begin to see yourself
as a spiritual being rather than as a human being. This will assist
you greatly in overcoming the dualistic state of consciousness and the
linear way of thinking that causes you to see yourself as separated
from other people and separated from God.
There are a number of people on this planet who descend from a spiritual
lineage which has one or several ascended masters immediately above
them. In other words, if such a person traces his or her spiritual lineage,
the person will find that his or her lifestream is actually the spiritual
offspring of an ascended being that is known on Earth. One might say
that your lifestream is an individualization of or a division of an
ascended master. This does not mean that you have no individuality,
because you do. Even when you fully reunite with your I AM Presence
and qualify for your ascension, you will not lose your individuality
and be absorbed into the greater being from which you came. Instead,
you will win the permanency of your individuality and become an ascended master yourself. However, you will also realize that you are part of
a larger whole. No ascended master is an island.
The reason Mother Mary inserted this little hint in her dictation was
to help awaken the soul memory of those on Earth who are descendants
of the spiritual lineage of ascended masters. When you become aware
of your spiritual lineage and establish a conscious connection to it
through your Christ self, you can begin to draw upon the wisdom, power
and attainment of that lineage. You can become the open door whereby
the ascended masters in your lineage can express themselves here on
Earth.
The God in the Garden of Eden was not God in the highest sense. It was
a representative of God who served as a spiritual teacher for a number
of lifestreams on Earth. The name of this spiritual teacher is Lord
Maitreya, and he is indeed one of the highest spiritual teachers working
with the Earth. I am of the lineage of Lord Maitreya, and as I attained
my Christhood, I became the open door for Lord Maitreya to give forth
spiritual teachings, release spiritual light and even perform certain
miracles here on Earth. When I said, “I and my Father are one,”
I was referring to Lord Maitreya as well as to my I AM Presence.
The important point here is that there are a number of people on Earth
who are very closely related to one or more ascended masters. One might
say that they are only one spiritual generation away from a master or
that they are individualizations of the Master. After you ascend, you
can choose to send a part of yourself back into embodiment to help the
spiritual evolution of planet Earth, and several ascended masters have
done so.
When you become aware of your lineage and fully embrace this new spiritual
identity, the ascended master(s) from which you descend can work through
you, as Lord Maitreya worked through me. It is absolutely critical at
this stage of the spiritual evolution of Earth that the people who have
this potential awaken to the reality of who they are. By allowing your
spiritual lineage to work through you, you can render an immense service
to this planet. This is especially critical right now because we do
not see a mass awakening on this planet. Therefore, as has happened
many times in the past, we need the few to hold the balance for the
many.
Yet in order to hold the necessary balance for the transformation of
the Earth into the Aquarian-age consciousness, you need to reconnect
to your spiritual lineage and be here below all that you are above.
In other words, you need to realize that although you are an individualization
of your spiritual lineage, you are not separated from that lineage.
When you overcome your sense of separation, you can be your lineage
in action on Earth. Thereby, your spiritual lineage suddenly has the
authority to act on Earth because you are in embodiment and have free
will. This then is the master key to raising the consciousness of humankind.
As I have said before,
there are currently 10,000 people on Earth who have the potential to
manifest full Christhood. When you do manifest Christhood, you become
one with your spiritual lineage. If these 10,000 people would reconnect
to their spiritual lineage, I can assure you that this planet would
be turned around and purified so quickly that it is beyond the current
imagination of most spiritual seekers.
As I have said before, every concept we give you is meant to set your
souls free from a limited state of consciousness. Yet the carnal mind
can use any concept to solidify its dualistic beliefs. For well over
a century, we have given spiritual seekers the concept of ascended masters,
and it has been useful to many. Yet even this concept can become a trap
if you solidify the belief that the ascended masters are somewhere up
in Heaven and have no connection to you. This has indeed happened to
many people who have followed the teachings of the ascended masters
through this or that organization. They have turned us into idols instead
of examples, as orthodox Christians have done to me.
It is now time to step up to a higher understanding of this concept
by realizing that we are not separated from you. Many of you are part
of the spiritual lineage from which we also came, and therefore you
need to stop seeing us a being far above you. You need to recognize
the truth that the real purpose of the Master/disciple or Guru/chela
relationship is that the disciple attains oneness with the Master.
I said, “I and my Father are one,” thus affirming my oneness
with my Master. And I wanted my disciples to affirm their oneness with
me, a test which Peter
failed and which most Christians fail to this day. So if you consider
yourself a student of the ascended masters, the goal of your personal
path should be to attain spiritual oneness with your Master, namely
the ascended master out of whose lineage you have come.
If you follow a true spiritual Master for a time, yet refuse to fully
enter into oneness with that Master, you will inevitably make yourself
a student of the false masters who see themselves as separated from
God. You will begin to follow the way that seemeth right unto a man,
but the ends thereof are the ways of death. And as I said, you cannot
serve two masters, meaning that you cannot follow a spiritual Master
and maintain a sense of separation from your Master.
When you are a new student, you are not able to let go of your sense
of separation and attain oneness with your Master. Yet as you continue
on the path, you will come to a point where you can make no further
progress until you overcome separation and embrace your oneness with
your Master. If you dwell on the threshold to oneness, you will begin
to use the teaching of your Master to, in subtle ways, justify and solidify
your separation from your master. This is a misuse of a true spiritual
teaching.
The way of separation has never been the true path of the ascended masters.
The true path has always been oneness, and that is why I said that “If
any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and
children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple” (Luke 14:26). Unless you are willing to
leave all sense of separation – all worldly attachments and sense
of identity – behind and affirm your total oneness with me, you
cannot truly be my disciple or the disciple of any other ascended master.
Instead, you will become the disciple of the false masters, the impostors,
who will tell you that you can enter Heaven without letting go of the
ego—the sense of identity based on separation from God. Heaven
is oneness, and you cannot take your sense of separation with you into
that oneness.
