The
key to the ultimate victory is ultimate surrender
A
dictation by the Elohim Victoria. This
dictation was delivered on May 20, 2007 during the Shangra-la Ascension
conference in Ireland.
Victoria I AM! And I AM the Elohim of Victory!
For I am the Presence, the Flame, of Victory that will consume all unlike
itself. Thus, you have seen the images of the vastness of the cosmos.*
And when you see the vastness of these galaxies, can you not see, my
beloved, that the Earth is infinitely small compared to the cosmos itself?
This does not mean that the Earth is insignificant. But it should give
you the sense of co-measurement that this Earth and the powers on this
Earth are not nearly as important or powerful as they seem and as they
think.
Do you not see, my beloved, that this Earth is just a speck of dust
in an almost infinite universe? So what is the folly of thinking that
those who have set themselves up as having power on Earth have any real
power compared to the vastness of the universe itself.
The illusion that problems are too big to be solved
My beloved, you may see the most powerful army on Earth. You may see
them arrayed with their nuclear weapons, but what can they do to the
far-flung galaxies of the cosmos? And this should then give you the
sense of co-measurement that the Creator who could create such a vast
cosmos, has a power that is infinitely greater than any power on Earth.
And thus, you should realize that when that power of God is allowed
to flow through those who have opened themselves to be the open doors
for that power, well then, “With men this is impossible, but with
God all things are possible.” There is not one single condition
on Earth that cannot be resolved or consumed or transformed by the power
of God.
My beloved, one of the foremost plots of the fallen
consciousness and the beings who embody it, is precisely to make
you believe that you are so insignificant and the problems facing this
Earth are so great, that there is nothing you can do to change status
quo. There is nothing you can do to overthrow the power elite. But my
beloved, this is nothing but an illusion, designed to do one thing only,
namely to prevent you from letting the Light of God shine through you,
the Light of God that is already anchored in the kingdom of God that
is within you.
And so my beloved, their greatest fear is that a critical number of
people will stand up and say, “Come what may, we will pursue the
path of individual Christhood. We will follow the example set by our
supreme teacher, Jesus Christ. And we will dare to do the works that
he did because we realize that WE are not doing the works—it is
God within us who is doing the works.”
This is their supreme fear, because they know that there was nothing
they could do to stop Jesus, to stop Gautama, to stop many of the other
people who have awakened to the reality that they are individualizations
of God on Earth and that they can allow the power of God to shine through
them.
And therefore, they know that if a critical mass of people were to manifest
that Christhood, well then they would lose their control over this planet.
And they would then be faced with a choice of either changing their
ways or going to the second
death. This they are seeking to avoid or postpone, by causing the
people to take on the karma they have created.
Yet my beloved, through your willingness to come apart from that consciousness
of hopelessness, of paralysis, of despair, of worthlessness, you have
shown, you have demonstrated, that they will not win, they will not
endure. For God will be victorious on Earth.
Dare to leave the dualistic struggle behind
Thus, I come to commend you. For you see, my beloved, it is not a matter
of fighting some gigantic, epic battle against the forces of darkness,
defeating them in a giant explosion. No, the true revolution that will
change the Earth is an inner revolution, where you dare to be who you
are and rise above the dualistic struggle, thus refusing to feed it.
This is the true victory we are looking for—those who will overcome
and be who they are in God. You have dared to start that process. And
you can surely continue it. Yes, my beloved, I sense how some of you
have your doubts. But I am not asking you to attain the Christ consciousness
in the next five seconds. I am asking you to continue to do what we
have talked about, namely put one foot in front of the other. Take one
step at a time and simply determine in your mind that come what may,
you will – for the rest of your lifetime – continue to take
one small step at a time, always looking for the next step. Never allowing
yourself to be held up by the sense of comfortability, or the sense
of fear or the sense of hopelessness.
My beloved, all I am asking is this: Always look for the next step you
can take. Look for how your ego is trying to come up with an excuse
for why you should not take that step. And then realize that it is nothing
but an illusion and determine to not let it hold you back but to take
that next step anyway. That is what I am asking, my beloved. For that
is what will win your victory.
Do you see, my beloved, some of our students in the organizations we
have sponsored have sometimes had a somewhat naive and black-and-white
perspective, where they thought that what they were doing was engaging
in some epic struggle where there would be glory in the end because
they had defeated the enemy. This, my beloved, is the remnants of a
consciousness that has permeated this planet for a very long time, causing
many people to actually want to go to war because they thought that
war was some glorious activity that would give them honor.
My beloved, it is time that the spiritual people abandon this state
of consciousness of wanting and needing to fight an enemy. It is time
you realized that there is a higher form of victory than the dualistic
victory that requires you to defeat an external enemy, namely by killing
or conquering other people. It is time to realize that the true victory
is a spiritual victory, namely that of rising above duality.
You do not win the ultimate victory by destroying other people that
you have defined as your enemies. You win the ultimate victory by you
rising above the consciousness that causes you to see others as separate
from yourselves, thereby potentially converting your enemies into your
brothers and sisters in Christ.
Rising above the possibility of defeat
This is the ultimate victory. And that requires you to overcome the
sense that it is possible for you to lose. You see, my beloved, you
might have your doubts of whether you can manifest your Christhood,
whether you can overcome this or that condition. But I tell you, my
beloved, Henry Ford was indeed right when he was inspired to say, “Whether
you believe you can, or whether you believe you can’t—you’re
right.” For it is the belief that precipitates the reality.
If you believe you cannot win, then you cannot win. But if you believe
and accept and determine with all of your heart, that you can and will
win, then that will be your reality.
So do you see, my beloved, I am imparting to you the true Flame of Victory
that is not in opposition to defeat, for it has and needs no opposing
polarity—for it is the unrivaled victory of God. And in that Flame
of Victory there is no possibility of defeat. For you know that if you
keep taking one small step at a time, then you can only win.
For victory, my beloved, is not a static state of no change. What is
victory? It is self-transcendence, coming up one step higher than you
were yesterday. That is victory!
It is not a matter of attaining some ultimate state of supposed perfection,
where there is no longer any growth or change possible. No, those who
have ascended beyond the human state are those who have discovered the
reality that life itself – that God itself – is eternal,
perpetual self-transcendence. And so when you determine that you will
continue to transcend yourself – for as long as you have awareness
– well then my beloved you have entered the Circle of victory,
the Flame of victory.
You have stepped onto the path of victory where there is no possibility
of defeat. It is not a matter of “if” you can make it. It
is only a matter of keeping on taking one small step at a time. And
if you find that you have slipped back, then you do not condemn yourself.
You simply surrender and then move on. If you always move on, if you
always take the next step, you cannot lose.
For my beloved, did not Jesus give his wonderful parable about the talents?
And the servants who multiplied the talents they had been given were
rewarded. For did not the Lord say, “Thou good and faithful servant,
thou has been faithful over a few things. I will make thee ruler over
many things.”
So you see, my beloved, when you come to that determination –
that you will keep taking one small step at a time – then you
might say that the small steps that you can take are not enough to win
the ultimate victory or to reach some state of Christhood or to manifest
the Golden Age. And you are right. The small steps that you can take
are not enough, but the small steps that you can take are enough to
bring forth the multiplication from above, And that multiplication will
manifest your Christhood, will manifest your victory, will manifest
the Golden Age.
Understanding non-dual Victory
Thus, my beloved, you see that as with everything, there is dualistic
perspective and there is a higher supra-dualistic** perspective. And
when you reach for that higher perspective, you see that there is a
different approach. Even an approach where you do not need to be forceful
or powerful in order to win. For my beloved, I
have earlier spoken with greater power through this messenger, but
I choose to tone down the power in order to impart to you a different
aspect of the Flame of Victory, a more quiet aspect of that flame that
is based on an inner knowing that there is only victory.
For my beloved, when you read Maitreya’s
book, you can read between the lines that there has never been a
sphere
that has not ascended—that there never will be a sphere that will
not ascend. For there is no question that God’s vision and design
for this world of form will be manifest. It is only a matter of how
long it will take before the beings who have used their free will to
separate
themselves from God will either realize the folly of their ways
or run out of opportunity, so that the sphere in which they have lived
will ascend without them.
Thus, my beloved, the force that drives the spheres to ascend is simply
this: constant self-transcendence. And my beloved, you are never in
a situation that you cannot transcend—IF you are willing to transcend
yourself. For have we not said over and over again that your outer situation
is a manifestation of your state of consciousness? And so even though
you might feel right now that you have no power over your outer situation,
I must tell you that you do have power to change your state
of consciousness one small step at a time, one illusion at a time.
And thus, the sense that you are paralyzed and can do nothing has no
reality to it. For my beloved, you can always surrender. And it is precisely
in unconditional surrender that you win the victory. For as has been
explained by Maitreya in his book and by Jesus and Mother Mary before,
you cannot perfect the human consciousness. You can only rise above
it. And in order to do that, you must surrender it. You must let it
go.
And so my beloved, do you see it has been said that it is better to
conquer yourself than to conquer a city? And indeed, conquering yourself
is not a matter of fighting a battle. It is not even a matter of fighting
your ego or the different divisions of your ego that cause a warring
in your members. It is only a matter of surrendering them, leaving them
behind—realizing that you are more than this. And therefore, accepting
that you can rise above any condition—when you are willing to
look at it, to understand why it is unreal and then simply let it go.
Thus in the softness of the Flame of Victory, I seal your hearts and
I express my gratitude as well. For you have set forth another movement,
another momentum, in the consciousness of Europe, namely that of VICTORY
THROUGH SURRENDER.
