| Answer
from Jesus:
I am a spiritual teacher,
and I hold no hostility towards anyone nor do I choose to be annoyed
by human beings. I welcome anyone with a sincere desire to know, so
please allow yourself to feel my love for you and my acceptance of you
and your questions.
I do not put any limitation on how many questions you can ask, so as
far as I am concerned, our dialogue can go on indefinitely (given the
time-space limitations of my messenger). However, I hope that at some
point you will embody the teachings on this website and continue our
dialogue in your own heart.
I do suggest that you slow down the pace and ask me fewer questions
at a time so that I can give more thorough answers. I also suggest that
you study the teachings on this website and in the books because they
will give you many answers. I also hope you will take time to contemplate
my answers with the heart before you ask more questions.
Let me now comment on your letter.
I was raised Catholic
but i left the church a long time ago because they told me i couldnt
think for myself and when they piss me off i would like nothing more
then to see it destoyed under its own vile existence , but thats another
issue.
Actually, this is an important
issue. I know that millions of sincere seekers have had a similar experience
of feeling that an orthodox religion, be it the Catholic Church or another
church, has tried to prevent them from asking questions or thinking
outside the box of official doctrine. As I explain throughout this website,
this is in complete opposition to my intent and my purpose for coming
to Earth.
I came to set people free from bondage. All bondage begins in the human
psyche, and what sets you free is the truth. However, the truth that
will set you free must come from within. Blind adherence to an outer
doctrine will not give you an inner experience of truth, and therefore
it will not set you free.
So I understand that you are not happy with the Catholic church. However,
I must caution you that as long as you maintain any negative feelings,
you are giving the Church power over you.
One of the cornerstones of my teaching is forgiveness. Did I not say
to forgive seventy times seven? Why did I say this? Because forgiveness
is the key to the liberation of your soul. If you do not forgive a person,
you are creating a tie, a bond of emotional energy, between yourself
and the person. This prevents you from moving forward on your spiritual
path.
I advise you to adopt the attitude that life is a path towards greater
understanding and peace of mind. Life is a learning process, and everything
that happens to you can be seen as an opportunity to learn a lesson.
For example, growing up in the Catholic Church gave you a unique opportunity
to realize that your soul has a strong desire for freedom. That is why
you feel so strongly about the Church’s attempt to prevent you
from thinking on your own.
So instead of wasting your energy on being angry with the Church, direct
that energy in a positive direction and turn it into a firm resolve
not to let anything in this world prevent you from moving forward on
the spiritual path. To fulfill this goal, you must become non-attached
to the things of this world so that when the prince of this world comes
to tempt you, as he tempted me, he has nothing in you. The key to this
nonattachment is to forgive, to surrender all negative feelings and
become harmless as a dove, yet wise as a serpent.
Now you asked me
if I believe in "GOD". As you can tell i dont like that
word. the question is what do you mean by GOD? Well all i can say
is that is that i agree that we are all part of the ALL..
The fact that you don’t
like the word "God" shows that there is something you have
not resolved. I fully understand that so many people have a negative
image of God. The reason is that deep within their souls they know that
God is not the way he is being portrayed by orthodox religion. Yet until
the soul consciously recognizes this inner knowing and uses it to resolve
its conflicts about God, the soul will be at an impasse.
As part of my mission I challenged the image of God, the angry and judgmental
God, that the Jews had developed during Old Testament times. I gave
an image of God as a loving father figure. Unfortunately, orthodox Christianity
has reverted back to the image of God as angry and judgmental. I recommend
that you study the many near-death experiences. They clearly demonstrate
that God does not judge you; you judge yourself.
You have heard the saying that you are your own worst critic. Well,
in Heaven, you are your only critic.
The reality of life
is that your soul was created in the image and likeness of God. It is
an extension of God in form; it is an individualization of God. As I
said, “Ye are Gods.”
As explained throughout this website, people have fallen into a lower
state of consciousness. They have projected this consciousness unto
God and created a false image, an idol, of God as a conditional and
judgmental tyrant. In reality God has an unconditional love for every
soul.
My point is that the spiritual path is a process whereby you gradually
resolve your negative feelings towards God and establish a correct relationship
to God. In other words, everything that happens on the path is simply
an opportunity to resolve your sense of separation from your source.
The key to resolving your relationship to God is to contemplate, and
eventually accept, God’s unconditional love.
The book The Inner Path of Light contains a detailed description
of how souls fell into a lower state of consciousness and turned their
backs on God. It also talks about how to overcome this impasse.
I know that you did imbody the Christ principle and i know
that you wish that others could connect with their own Christ.I am
asking are you saying that we cant seek the Buddha. From what i gather
the Christ and the Buddha belong to the Second ray of LOVE and WISDOM.
LOVE is represented by the Christ and WISDOM is represent by the Buddha.
There is no contradiction
or competition between the path of Christhood and the path of Buddhahood.
However, different souls need different vehicles, and therefore one
religion does not fit all.
The path of the Buddha is generally more suited for people in the East,
whereas the path of the Christ is more suited for people in the West.
One might say that Christ consciousness is simply the lower stages of
enlightenment. Thus, Buddhahood is a higher form of consciousness than
Christhood or a higher stage of Christhood.
When you attain Christhood, you realize that you are one with your source
(God) and through that you attain discernment between what is of God
and what is not of God. You clearly see that many of the appearances
in this world are against God’s law and his intent for this universe.
You thus see yourself in opposition to all that is anti-Christ and your
task is to free souls from the snares of the anti-Christ.
When you attain Buddhahood, you realize that everything is the Buddha
nature, meaning that everything is made from God’s substance.
The appearances of this world are simply illusions, Maya. They might
appear to be separate from or in opposition to God, but they are simply
God’s substance in a temporary and fleeting disguise. Therefore
you affirm the reality of God behind all surface appearances.
The Buddha and I are both spiritual teachers and we are part of the
same team. The Buddha was sent by the Ascended Host to bring the teachings
of Buddhahood. Unfortunately, not enough people were able to grasp the
teachings of the Buddha, and therefore I was sent to offer them a bridge
to help them cross over to enlightenment. For most people, it will be
easier to embody the teachings of Christ than the teachings of Buddha.
That is, once they understand the true teachings of Christ and not the
watered down version, filled with dead men’s bones, offered by
orthodox Christianity.
its in regards to "of Nazareth". which is quite
hillarious because Nazareth never existed during your life.it arrived
a couple hundread years after you. So it seems to stand that of nazareth
is a mistranslation of the Nazarene of the Nazarean. Nazareth never
existed on any map of palestine at that time there is no map of ancient
palestine with Nazareth on it, But there is a Gennesareth.
Ancient Israel was a turbulent
society with groups of people moving in and out and groups of people
having a nomadic lifestyle. People often used group affiliation as a
means of identification. There were many regions with no clearly defined
geographic center. After groups settled down and towns started to grow,
a geographic center was formed. The town often became named after the
people who were most numerous in the region.
As I have said elsewhere, there
are many things in the Bible that should not be taken literally. Certain
things were added later, and, unfortunately, some things were taken
out.
In this case, I don’t think your point alters the basic message.
I grew up amongst a group of people whom many, especially in Jerusalem,
considered outcasts. This was done to show that God is no respecter
of persons and that all have the opportunity to be saved. This was an
important message amongst Jews because many of them believed that they
alone were God’s chosen people and that they alone would be saved.
Today, many people believe that only Christians will be saved. Again,
this is a fallacy.
Was Judas Thomas your biological twin brother?
Many things have both a material/literal
and a hidden/spiritual meaning. I set up a system whereby my disciples
could progress through different ranks that gradually brought them closer
to being the Christ in embodiment.
Not all whom the scriptures call the brothers of Jesus were my biological
brothers. As you applied yourself to discipleship under me, you would
first attain the rank of brother of Christ, then bride of christ and
finally, as Thomas did, twin of Christ.
When you become my twin, you have attuned your consciousness to mine
to such an extend that I can literally speak and act through you. Thus,
after my resurrection, I could speak and act through Thomas and, occasionally,
some of the other disciples.
This is part of an ancient lineage of gurus/teachers and chelas/students.
The idea of this guru-chela relationship is that a student embodies
the teaching of the guru to such an extent that he eventually becomes
the teaching and therefore becomes the next teacher.
Unfortunately, this knowledge was lost in orthodoxy and as a result
many people have been confused and have come up with erroneous theories
concerning my relationship to my disciples.
You asked me a question along the lines of why i am fascinated
with Apollonius of Tyana? well its not that im really fascinated with
him but more like that the i trust where my spirit brings me and they
lead me to Apollonius of Tyana just like they lead me to this website.
And you should follow that
prompting without becoming attached. My point was that a student will
often be presented with two teachers, one true and one false, or one
higher and one lower. This is a test to see which one the student will
choose.
You said i should pick a teacher and follow that teacher .I
probably would but im not ready to do such as of yet im getting there
but not quite yet. so can i follow Maitreya where he uses a channel
to spread his teachings on maitreya-edu.org.
You can follow the teacher
of your choice. However, in my last answer I recommended several organizations,
and maitreya-edu.org was not one of them.
My spiritual Guru is Maitreya and I have embodied his teachings and
become the teacher. Therefore, everything you see on this website is
one expression of the teachings of Maitreya.
Have you heard of the scroll that they found at masada. Its
called the Jesus scroll. it was signed by Yeshua ben Ya'akob ben Gennesareth
who described himself being 80 years old and added that he was the
last of the rightful kings of Israel.The name translated into english
is jesus of Gennesareth, son of Jacob.
I had nothing to do with
it.
you couldnt have belived in the Immaculate conception of your mother
since that wasnt invented till just recently.
I did not believe in the
orthodox version as it is understood today. I honored both my father
and my mother. However, the immaculate conception was not a recent invention.
It has some reality to it in that my mother was without blemish or sin
and that the Holy Spirit did play a role in my conception.
Do you honestly believe in the devil or satan because i find the whole
idea ludicrous. the devil is nothing more then a scapegoat for peoples
lives. the only devil there is , is the self( the ego).
I am an ascended being. I
have no need for beliefs because I perceive the truth. There was indeed
a soul, named Lucifer, who long ago rebelled against God’s plan
for this universe and who then embodied the negative potential of human
nature. I have spoken about absolute evil elsewhere [see also].
When you refer to prince of this world who are you talking
about what is his name (please dont say George W Bush).
People have free will and
can therefore choose evil over God. Anyone who rebels against God’s
plan can personify evil and by attaining power earn the dubious title
of “Prince of this World.” In other words, this is not simply
one person but a state of consciousness that can be embodied by both
nonmaterial beings and people in embodiment. However, many people choose
to embody evil to a lesser degree.
What is your relationship to the Great Sacrifice, Sanat Kumara.
I first came to Earth with
Sanat Kumara who came on a rescue mission to save this planet from oblivion.
This happened because the inhabitants of the earth had descended to
such a low level of consciousness that the Earth was no longer a viable
platform for the growth of souls.
I got to give it to you, you're very sly with your answers..
for example when it came to your mother you gave me just enough info
to get the wheels in my head spinning.
I am a true spiritual teacher
and my purpose is to set you free. As I said earlier, the only truth
that will set you free is the one coming from inside yourself. It is
not my intent to give you a teaching that stops you from thinking. I
want to make you think for yourself, so you get an aha-experience, so
you experience gnosis, and thereby take a step forward on your path.
In contrast a false teacher will attempt to give you absolute and infallible
answers and discourage you from thinking on your own. You have already
experienced this in the Catholic Church. The lie of the false teachers
has always been that you cannot contact God inside yourself, and that
you need an outer guru, doctrine or church.
The essential message of this website is that you can make contact with
God inside your own heart. This happens through your Christ self who
is the mediator between man and God. Perhaps you should make an effort
to get to know your Christ self, who is your true teacher.
I know that its the teaching you want me to pay attention
to but your life is also important. i know its stupid but what kind
of man you were is very important for me . people see you as a God
and i just want to know the man who carried out the mission for the
christ.
This is not stupid. I was
merely trying to point out that focusing on the historical facts can
become a distraction that prevents you from following my example.
The greatest fallacy of orthodox doctrine is that it elevated me to
a God or to the only Son of God, thus no one else can follow in my footsteps.
As stated on this website, my true mission was to demonstrate the universal
path that all can follow. I came to be an example, not an idol.
If seeing me as a man helps you overcome this orthodox idolatry, then
that is good. However, be aware that there is much conflicting historical
evidence about me. So to avoid confusion, focus on my inner mission,
the inner path and follow that path.
you had earthly problems didnt you. like knowing that you
fell in love got married and had children is very good to know so
i can be happy for you because you had quite a burden to take on during
your life.
I had many problems before
I finally attained a clear vision of my spiritual mission and decided
to focus all of my attention on fulfilling that mission. For more on
this, see the following website.
Personally when it comes to the crucifixion, i think it was
you who suffered and either died or swooned and after they took you
down they brought you backand then you proceeded on to your after
crucifixion life . I cant believe that you lived to 120 years old.
You were known as Isha Masih and Yuz Asaf. So you met king Shalivahan
king of the sakyas and he offerd you a servant named maryan and you
married her and your descendant can be found in kashmir.
I have talked about the crucifixion
elsewhere. See my previous answer about a post-crucifixion life.
So just to get this straight you go by Master Jesus. but in
all essene literature you are referred to in aramaic as eesho or eeshu
oshu or 'shu. Yeshua is the hebrew derivative of the aramaic eesho.So
the question is what did your mom call you by what name like your
friends and family? people say to me yo steven what would they say
to you?
Would you mind participating
in an experiment? Go to the library or the internet and look up ten
different names for “milk” from various languages.
Then pour yourself a glass of milk. Look at the list and consider the
following question:
“Will the name you
choose for the milk affect its ability to quench your thirst?”
I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. I will quench your thirst for
truth no matter what you call me.
My Mother used to call me “yesuh” and pronounced it with
a sweetness that no modern spelling or pronunciation could ever imitate.
I was named Steven, so that is my name, so lets do this we
are both 21 we meet by on the road i say hi my name is Steven Perry
and im from saint John in canada and then you would say-
I would say: “I am
Jesus Christ (if you use the English version of your name, I will use
the English version of mine). I am a son of God and I live in my Father’s
eternal kingdom. Are you sure there isn’t more to your identity
than what you just told me?
”it will shock me that your still talking to me or your
playing with me because you've written me off as a lost cause.
I never write anyone off
as a lost cause. Unfortunately some people choose to write themselves
off as a lost cause. Part of my mission was to tell people that no one
is beyond salvation. Unfortunately, not everyone can accept that message.
I trust you will be able to accept my message.
