Abraham’s God was the Living God—not a dead god

Dictation by Master MORE, Sunday October 25, 2009 in Jerusalem, Israel at 9:04 AM.

Note: The Messenger was in the Japanese Garden near the Israeli governmental buildings, the Ministry of foreign Affairs, Supreme Court and the Knesset. There was a man-made waterfall nearby.

 

I am indeed MORE, my beloved, the one and only Master MORE, for there is only one of me, although there are those who claim to be me but are not, for they are not willing to be MORE. And therefore, they cannot flow with me but are left behind in a static state, somewhere in time and space, as I constantly transcend and move beyond time and space, my beloved, in the eternal progression of being, of transcendence, of the River of Life that I AM.

And so, the splashing waterfall in the background symbolizes that River of Life, which eternally moves on, my beloved, and is never the same. You have heard the old cliché that you cannot step into the same river twice, and it is indeed not just a cliché. There is a deeper truth here that you might ponder and meditate upon, for so it is with the stream of consciousness that you call physical space and time. 



My beloved, the illusion – the grand illusion of the ages – is indeed that human beings, in their dualistic state of consciousness, cannot see beyond the solidity of matter. And thus, they assign reality to matter, they assign on-goingness to it, and they indeed believe that it has power over them. For they have forgotten that they are eternal Spirit Sparks, that they are lifestreams that are designed to flow with the River of Life.  And they too have come to the point of stopping that flow through them, seeking to hold on to something that they have not had enough of in this realm, this illusory realm of time and space.

 

Understanding Abraham’s God
So my beloved, let us now go back to the time of Abraham, considered to be one of the Patriarchs of the Jewish faith, one of the patriarchs of both Christianity and Islam, as the three monotheistic religions.  My beloved, did Abraham actually preach what you today call today monotheism?  Well, yes and no my beloved, depending on how you understand and define monotheism.  For you see, at the time of Abraham this entire region was a mixture of various tribes, each having their own tribal gods, usually having some idol carved in wood or stone or gold or whatever, but some physical object, where they believed that the God that they were worshipping was indwelling in that physical object and not elsewhere in the realm of matter.

So what you had was not only conflict between the various tribes competing over land for their flocks, but you also had conflict based on the tribal gods and the idea that each tribe believed that their God was stronger than the God of the other tribe, my beloved. And so, when I was young man in that embodiment, I pondered this. I pondered why there had to be this conflict between the tribes, and I realized that if the tribes were ever to overcome their conflicts, they needed something to unite them, something greater than the tribe. They needed to have a vision of something that was beyond their own tribe, beyond the mental box – although I certainly couldn’t have used that word at the time – for their own tribe.



And so you see, the vision I had as a young man was that it was clearly the tribal gods who were blocking the vision of something greater than the tribe and the tribal consciousness.  Now, even then my beloved there was indeed some exchange of goods and ideas between this region and the East, and so I was fortunate indeed to meet a traveling merchant who had grown up in the East and was familiar with the Vedas and the Vedic world view.  I learned from this traveling merchant-sage, as you might call him, the view that beyond the many gods of Hinduism – the specific gods with different characteristics – there was the One Supreme God, Brahman, the originator of all that has formed.

Yet the Brahman is beyond form, for how can the originator of form have form in itself?  It must be beyond, it must be transcendent, my beloved, for if something has form, it cannot be the Supreme Source of form. This was immediately logical to me.

I know full well that those trapped in the duality consciousness can and will debate this point endlessly, as you see people today endlessly debating whether God is like this or like that, whether he is like that described by their religion or in some other way.  But you see, God is not a he or a she because the God who is beyond form has not taken on anything that can be compared to masculine and feminine, male and female. 

And so, I saw in a vision – on an early morning in the desert as the sun was rising – I saw in a vision that even beyond the sun there had to be some source that was driving the sun; driving the light, creating the light, generating the light.  And I knew that that God, that formless, transcendent, never-changing eternal God—THAT was my God.  And that is the God I preached, my beloved; the God that is beyond form, and therefore cannot be, my beloved, the personal God, the angry judgmental being in the sky that has been portrayed throughout the Old Testament. 

For certainly, you can see that Abraham cannot be responsible for what happened after his time, where the concepts of the transcendent God not only was not understood, but was interpreted to mean a God that had certain human characteristics, where again human beings projected onto that God what they wanted to see, so that they could feel, my beloved, that this God was partial to their people, although it had grown beyond to not just one tribe but the Jewish people. 

Yet they still wanted a God who was simply larger than the old tribal God but was partial to their people.  And so they took the concept that I preached of the transcendent God and made it into a material deity that they gave human characteristics, first of all by projecting their male chauvinist, their male dominated, world view and mental box upon that God. 

 

Those who wrestle with God
And so, then you have the creation of the Old Testament God, which became the God of the Israelites—the God of Israel after Jacob. And my beloved, you should know that the word Israel means “he who wrestles with God,” the name given to Jacob after he wrestled with the Angel of God for the entire night, refusing to let the Angel go until he had been blessed. 

My beloved, what does this indeed symbolize?  It symbolizes an attitude, a world view, where you want Spirit to fit into the mental box you have created in matter.  Thus, you wrestle with Spirit, you demand that Spirit come down to your level of consciousness and express itself through that level of consciousness, instead of being willing to do what I did – what Jesus did, what Moses did on ascending the mountain and what all other true teachers and prophets have done – namely raise your consciousness beyond your mental box and move outside of that mental box, as even symbolized by the fact that I had to leave my homeland and move on to other pastures, move into the unknown in order to prove to God that I was willing to transcend my mental box. Even being put through the extreme test of being asked to physically sacrifice my son in order to again prove that I was willing to step out, even of the mental box of that ancient society, where your sons were seen as your seeds, your offspring, the key to your future, to the future of your family tree and name. 

Do you see my beloved, how I was asked not only as recorded in the scriptures but asked many times to transcend that mental box and the next mental box and then the next and the next?  And do see that this is the sign of those who are willing to flow with the River of Life?



For as Jesus has recently explained in his latest discourses on the ego, as long as you are in embodiment, there will be some mental box, for you cannot be in this denser realm of the world of form without looking at it through a particular box, a particular filter, that you then seek to project upon the Ma-ter light, and the Ma-ter light must obey and take on the form that you project through you mind. 

Do you see that this is the test that all spiritual students have faced throughout the Ages?  When will you come to the point where you stop projecting onto Spirit and thereby rejecting the flow of the Holy Spirit that is here to take you beyond your mental prison?  When will you stop projecting and open your mind and heart to the guiding hand of Spirit, who may speak to you from deep within your heart, speak to you through another person, even speak to you between the lines of a scripture or speak to you in a more direct manifestation such as the appearance of what people call Angels but which are truly the thoughts of God, sent to you to awaken you to the need to look beyond your mental box?

For do you not see – when you look at history – that any religious or spiritual teaching has always become a mental prison for many of those who have claimed to follow a particular religion.  There is no exception to this, although certainly there are religions that have become more rigid than others, with hardly any becoming more rigid in the entire world history than the three great monotheistic religions of Judaism, Islam and Christianity. 

For do you not see my beloved – when you walk through the streets of Jerusalem, when you walk on or around the Temple Mount, when you ascend the Mount of Olives – do you not sense the rigidity?  The rigidity of consciousness, the intolerance toward those who have other ideas, other ways of looking at God, other ways of worshipping God.  And thus, my beloved, you will know exactly the same consciousness that I contemplated in that lifetime as Abraham, where I saw the consciousness of the different tribes.



And so, you see now, so many thousands of years later in what is called the modern age with the immense expansion of knowledge, of awareness of the universe; you still have that same consciousness of intolerance toward those who dare to be different from yourselves or who are born different through their skin color, race, ethnicity, or what have you. 

Do you see why you have the old saying that there is nothing new under the sun?  For human beings are still prone to go into those same mental boxes, always projecting from that mental box that other people should conform to my mental box, and when they do not, I will reject them! I will reject their right, I will even reject the very possibility that I might learn something from others. Or that I even might learn tolerance towards others and therefore earn tolerance toward my own way of life, that I might actually transcend that way of life and reconnect to the fact that I am a spiritual being that sprang from the formless God. And I am meant to return to formlessness and I can do so only by transcending those form-based mental boxes, created here on Earth to trap the Spirit in a lesser form and therefore prevent that Spirit from letting its light shine and therefore raising the collective consciousness.


The mental box of intolerance
My Beloved, contemplate for a second the immense expansion of knowledge brought about through science.  Contemplate how astronomers have created stronger and stronger telescopes that can look deeper and deeper into the material universe.  Contemplate how they have discovered that the universe is so vast that the human mind can barely fathom it, that there are billions upon billions of stars, billions of solar systems.  Contemplate this immense vastness my beloved; this immense vastness of the material universe.

And then perhaps even look beyond it and contemplate the vastness of the spiritual universes beyond the material that you cannot see even with the best telescopes, for the telescopes merely extend the mental box that science is currently in. Them, having not been willing to go beyond and construct telescopes that can show other realms beyond the material, even though they have actually constructed certain instruments that can show forms of energy that are not in the material frequency spectrum, only the discoveries have not yet been interpreted correctly to show that scientists have looked into other dimensions already. 

Nevertheless, my beloved, contemplate this vastness that science has discovered, and then project your mind to the narrow streets of the old city of Jerusalem – even to the Temple Mount and to the Mount of Olives – and then realize that here you have a flashpoint between the world’s three great monotheistic religions, and realize that they claim to be worshipping the same God yet they cannot exist side by side in peace.



They cannot worship that God in different ways in peace, and then consider what that says about the people of this region and their unwillingness to transcend that tribal consciousness that I experienced so many years ago, and that has been propagated here from generation to generation with so few people in this area being willing to transcend it that it almost defies comprehension.

For my beloved, I have been willing to transcend that consciousness, which is why I am today an ascended being. And I assure you that if I could reach that level of consciousness, well then so can everyone else.  This much I know for sure, for I started out from very humble beginnings.  I was not by any means a saint, even in that embodiment as Abraham and in succeeding embodiments, where I was still somewhat trapped in the warring consciousness.   And so you see, my beloved, that there is nothing in the material realm that cannot be transcended by that which is Spirit.

As Jesus said it, “No man shall ascend back to heaven, save he that descended from heaven.” And the man that descended is your conscious self that is beyond any form that you might have chosen to identify with in this realm.  And thus, you can throw off those shackles of matter, those shackles of form no matter what they are—you can throw them off, you can transcend them, you can go beyond them my beloved.  This much I can promise you with absolute certainty, for I have proven it to myself and I know that my brothers and sisters in the Ascended Host have proven it as well. 


The cause behind the ongoing conflict
And thus, I say to you, it is time, my beloved, to look at this area of the Middle East and to see what is the true cause behind the conflict, my beloved.  The ongoing incessant conflict that is always there, almost like the explosive gas you see in a mine, that is lying there, filling the tunnels only waiting for that one spark to ignite, so that it explodes into conflict. As you even saw this morning, where this little band of my disciples could not go to the Temple Mount for some conflict – meaningless, nameless – yet a proof of how the consciousness is always there, simply looking for an excuse to burst out into violence, yelling, screaming, hatred. That then is propagated onto the innocent children who chose to embody here to give the adults an opportunity to encounter the innocence of the childlike mind, and therefore have an opportunity to evaluate, “Will they pollute that childlike mind with the anger and hatred that they have come to absorb into their being?”



Or will they say, “No, my children deserve a better future than I have had myself.  And how can they have that better future unless I do not put upon them that same heavy burden of anger toward other people, of hatred towards those who are different that was put upon me when I was a child?” 

My beloved is this not simply sanity? And is the denial of this simple fact not thus insanity? And yet, you yourselves should not sit wherever you are when you hear or read this and feel that you are that much better, for you too have your mental boxes, you too have your personal drama. And I dare say that there are very few spiritual students – especially those who have been in contact with Ascended Master movements – who are not also affected by the epic dramas LINK that Jesus has described.


A defining point on your path
Contemplate this and the other discourses that will be forthcoming, for as a spiritual student I can assure you that there comes a point on your path, where you will be stopped dead in your tracks unless you seriously contemplate the existence of the epic drama and how it is your own personal drama that has given an inroad into your consciousness to the epic dramas—that are not only hanging over this planet like cloud but have been turned into, over the millennia, beasts in the astral, in the emotional realm, in the mental realm, even in the lower etheric. [Beasts] that are constantly seeking to get their psychic hooks into your being, so that they can milk you of your energy by stirring up your sense of identity, your thoughts and your feelings to play out the drama to where you believe in the essential lie of these epic dramas—that the only way to stop the conflict is to manifest the physical outcome that the drama claims it is working towards.

My beloved, it is time to wizen up and realize, first of all, as Jesus has explained, the drama itself generates an equal reaction to its own action. And thus, it is simply a lie that there could ever be an outcome to any drama.  There cannot be peace through war!  There cannot be peace by exterminating those of another race or religion or political ideology.  It cannot happen my beloved, there will only be peace when people turn their swords into ploughshares by refusing to play the drama of war and conflict, by refusing to play any of the dramas that simply seek to reinforce the dualistic struggle that allows the forces of darkness to milk people of their spiritual light and energy. 



So you see, my beloved, this new movement of letting go of the drama, well this new movement is not very likely to start here in Jerusalem, is it my beloved—when you are realistic?  So then, where will it start, my beloved?  Huh? Do you think it will start somewhere in a physical location, or will it start when you decide to look in the mirror and say, “If it does not start with me, then who?  If it does not start here, where I am, then where?  If it does not start now, then when?” Do you see, it must begin with you, and you, and you and you and all of you who claim to be students of the Ascended Masters?

My beloved, do you understand that in previous dispensations and movements sponsored by the Ascended Masters, we gave teachings that were adapted to the level of consciousness that the majority of the students had, but also to a certain level of consciousness.  Thus, this does not mean that all of humankind will transcend that level of consciousness in the next five or ten or twenty or fifty or a hundred years, so there are some teachings that we have given that will have a longer lifespan.

But it does mean, my beloved, that there comes a point where a particular movement has served its purpose, and thus progressive revelation stops through that movement—unless the leaders, the messengers, and the majority of the students are willing to transcend the old level of consciousness. 

And I must tell you that this has not yet happened to any movement my beloved.  It has not even happened to this latest movement, called the Shangra-la movement, where we have started in the last couple of years to give teachings that serve as a bridge between the level of consciousness represented by the Summit Lighthouse, the Bridge to Freedom, the I AM Movement, even Theosophy—all movements that had some levels of duality and that did not contain many teachings, only veiled teachings between the lines, about non-duality.

And so you see, as Jesus has said before, the Summit Lighthouse was the last movement sponsored in the Piscean Age, and thus it contained many elements from the Piscean Age, my beloved.  Shangra-la was meant to serve as the bridge between the Piscean and the Aquarian, yet too many people came in with their mental boxes, became comfortable in those boxes and did not want the apple cart to be upset, my beloved. They wanted things to continue, and thus they were not receptive to the teachings on non-duality, even to the teachings on the Secret Rays that many of them have not actually understood or even studied.



So it became obvious to us, of the Ascended Host, that we needed to close that cycle of progressive revelation, and this was indeed what this messenger realized at New Years’ 2009.  [He realized] that a cycle had come to an end, or was coming to an end, and that it was necessary for him to move up higher, if he wanted to continue to serve as a mouthpiece.  Now my beloved, he could very easily have said “I want to stay in my comfortable position and retire here,” and he could have continued to teach for the rest of his lifetime based on the teachings that have been brought forth through him, for indeed there is much richness that could be expounded upon. 

Nevertheless he decided he wanted to move on, and so indeed he did move on, exactly as he was meant to do, so that he could out-picture, my beloved, the ultimate real-life drama of doing exactly what the Christed ones have been doing throughout the ages—doing what their followers least expected. So as to give their followers the opportunity to project upon them what they wanted to project, so that the followers would have an opportunity to realize that what you project – the reaction you have to the unexpected – is indeed an expression of your personal drama.

My beloved, do you hear what I am saying? 

YOUR reaction to ANY unexpected situation in this material universe is a projection of your own drama and its mental box.  The lie of the drama is that it projects outside yourself, so that you look at other people and say, “They were the ones who did something wrong, they are the ones who have the problem.” And therefore, you have the perfect excuse for not looking at the beam in your own eye and realizing that no one ever did anything to you.

You did something to yourself by your reaction to what other people did, and that something you did to yourself is a product of your drama. And if you want to be free of the drama, you better take a look at your reaction and follow it to its source – in the emotional, in the mental and even in your identity body – to see what it says about the way you look at yourself, the way you look at life, the way you look at God. For that is how you will gain the insight to see the beam in your own eye and pull it from your eye, that you might see clearly what is going on in the world around you instead of looking always through that filter that distorts everything, my beloved. 

So you who should be the wise ones, be willing to look at yourselves and stop looking outside yourselves. For if you will not heed this call – which is indeed my last call to you, the last call that will be given – then you will become inevitably more anchored in the rigidity of your drama. And there is a high probability that you will live the rest of your lifetime inside the mental box of that drama, and there will be very little that we of the Ascended Host can do to reach you inside that mental box.

And thus my beloved, I Master MORE, seal the dispensation of the Shangra-la movement and the bringing forth of progressive revelation through it. It is done, it is finished, it is sealed. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken it, I AM THAT I AM, MORE.
