from Jesus:
As Mother Mary explains throughout
her discourses,
God has two aspects, namely the masculine and the feminine. In reality,
there is no conflict between these two aspects of God, and it is meaningless
to say that one is more important than the other. Likewise, it is meaningless
to say that men are more important than women. Men and women are simply
outpicturing different aspects of the nature of God, and there should
be no conflict between them. In the spiritual realm, there is no conflict
between masculine and feminine ascended masters.
The conflict between the sexes is truly a consequence of the fact that
human beings have fallen into a lower state of consciousness. The reality
of this fall was that every soul has both masculine and feminine aspects,
because each soul is an outpicturing of the totality of God. Some souls
are slightly more masculine, but they still have a feminine side. It
was the feminine side of every soul that caused that soul – masculine
or feminine – to fall.
The feminine side of the soul is more closely in tune with the matter
universe, and therefore it was the feminine side of the soul that became
attached to what the soul had created – including its sense of
identity – in the matter world. It was this attachment that gradually
led the soul to lose contact with its I AM Presence. After the Fall,
many of the predominantly masculine souls refused to take responsibility
for their own fall. In their eagerness to avoid accountability, they
fell prey to a serpentine lie, and this led to the creation of the entire
culture which blames the Fall on women and claims that women should
be subservient to men.
It is not true that women should be subservient to men. However, it
is true that the feminine aspect of every soul should be subservient
to the masculine aspect, including the Christ self and I AM Presence,
of that soul.
One of the goals for my ministry was to reestablish the correct understanding
of what I have just explained. It was my intention to counteract the
male-dominated culture found 2,000 years ago and to create a new spiritual
movement that would give equal value and equal importance to both men
and women. I have already explained this in some detail in a couple
of other discourses Link
1, Link 2.
I also explained that my male disciples were not able to accept this
aspect of my mission, and therefore Christianity has to this day perpetuated
the male-dominated culture that never did come from God.
My mother, Mary Magdalene, Martha, and several other women not mentioned
in the scriptures, were present at the last supper. They too drank of
the cup and ate of the bread, because they truly were as worthy to absorb
my body and blood as were my male disciples. Again, because of the male-dominated
culture, this fact was conveniently omitted from the scriptures. Yet
it is an eternal fact that women have the same potential to manifest
Christhood as men. It is also a – hopefully temporary –
fact that in this day and age, women are generally more open to the
path of personal Christhood than men. Women are generally far more willing
to change themselves than men, and that is why you see so many women
in spiritual movements. I hope we can soon attain true oneness between
men and women in every way.
