from Jesus:
My beloved heart, I can assure
you that nothing warms a Master’s heart more than seeing a person
go through the transformation that you have just described. This is
truly the reward that we who are in Heaven are looking for in our work
with those of our brothers and sisters who are still on the Earth. I
truly wish that every human being on Earth would go through the same
transformation of being spiritually reborn.
You see, when you ascend to Heaven, you lose the sense of division and
competition so common on Earth. You accept your true identity as a spiritual
being, and you only want too see all of your unascended brothers and
sisters accept their true identity as sons and daughters of God.
Despite the fact that so many Christians are attached to the idolatrous
image of me as the only Son of God, I have no desire to be seen as an
exception. I only desire all human beings to accept themselves as the
sons and daughters of God they truly are. The Christian idolatry of
me springs from the relativity of the carnal mind, which gives rise
to a sense of competition and exclusivity. Christians want to make me
the only Son of God so that they can feel better than the members of
other religions. Yet as you accept your Christhood, this sense of competition
fades away and you can begin to follow my admonishment to love your
neighbor as yourself. You eventually begin to see that your neighbor
is a child of the same God who is your spiritual father/mother.
The sad reality of the situation on planet Earth is that the vast majority
of human beings are trapped in a spiritual, mental and emotional prison.
They are so boxed in by erroneous beliefs about God and about themselves
that they have literally become spiritually blind. Many of them do not
even realize that there is a God or that life has a spiritual side.
Therefore, they cannot formulate intelligent questions about God or
about the spiritual side of life, and they go through life almost as
in a coma, a spiritual coma.
As a spiritual teacher I am always hoping that people will wake up from
this coma and realize that they are not mortal human beings but immortal
spiritual beings. This is truly what I work for and what I have been
working towards for thousands of years.
So I congratulate you with your spiritual awakening, and I encourage
you to hold on to this awakening no matter what happens. In fact, I
would like to issue a warning here that you be very careful and defend
your spiritual rebirth against the onslaught of the forces of this world.
You might see from the scriptures that my 40 days in the wilderness
brought me to a new level of spiritual awakening. Immediately upon returning
from the wilderness, I was tempted by the devil, which can be seen as
a symbol for the forces, even the state of consciousness, that dominate
this world.
The collective consciousness of humankind will work against your spiritual
awakening because there will be people around you who do not want you
to get ahead of them and do not want you to demonstrate that it is possible
to awaken from the coma.
So I strongly encourage you to keep studying the teachings, including
the teachings I have given about spiritual
defense. It is very important that a spiritual seeker defends his
or her progress on the path by using the proper tools for spiritual
defense. However, the essential key is that you are aware that there
are forces, including forces in your own psychology, that will work
against your spiritual progress. The book The Inner Path of Light
describes the inner forces, this human ego, in greater detail.
When you are aware of such forces, you can follow the admonishment to
be wise as serpents and harmless as doves, and that is half the victory.
It is an inescapable fact that you cannot defend yourself against an
attack that you do not see coming. But as soon as you recognize the
threat, you can immediately defend yourself.
Please do not let this warning dampen your enthusiasm for your new-found
freedom. Simply be alert and aware and hold on to the sense of joy and
enthusiasm. Also be aware that the joy does not come from the fact that
you have found this website or the books. These are simply outer teachings,
outer tools. The real joy comes to the fact that you have now made conscious
contact with your personal Christ self and with me through that Christ
self.
This is the connection that you need to maintain and expand. It is the
connection to the inner teacher that is the essential key to spiritual
growth and spiritual freedom. Hold fast to that connection, and do not
let any of the forces of this world take away that connection. Let no
force of this world take the crown of the inner connection to your Christ
self.
