And so let us look at the civilization of 2000 years ago, and let
us look at the dominant civilization of the time, namely the Roman
Empire. It is of course no coincidence that we have sent this messenger
and his companion to Rome,
right before the dawning of the Aquarian age. For indeed, you will
see that the Roman Empire and the Roman church have provided the major
challenges – they illustrate the major challenges – that humankind
must transcend – were meant to transcend – during the Piscean age—and
must transcend in order to move into the aquarian age consciousness,
and therefore manifest the golden age that is the highest potential
for the Aquarian age.
What is it indeed that the Roman Empire and the Roman Church represent?
They represent the consciousness that started with the original fallen
angels, when they fell in a higher sphere, out of the arrogance
of thinking they knew better than God how to run God's creation. They
thought that they formed an elite with special powers, with special
wisdom and insight and intellectual prowess. And therefore, they thought
that they deserved to rule the people. They deserved to rule the new
co-creators in the sphere into which they had fallen, after they refused
to self-transcend and ascend with their original sphere. They thought
that in their sophistication, they were better suited for ruling over
the co-creators, who were yet new and yet experimenting. Yet the co-creators
were simply the children of God, and as Jesus said: "Unless you
become as little children you shall in no wise enter the kingdom."
And so, they were not nearly as unsophisticated as the fallen angels
thought—and as they think to this day.
You see, what the fallen angels did was they created a standard for
sophistication that was based on themselves and their own state of
consciousness. This was not a universal standard, it was not a logical
standard, it was not a natural standard, it was not a standard set
by God, it was a standard set by the fallen consciousness, the consciousness
and duality and separation. It was a standard that attempted to make
a virtue out of necessity, the necessity that you are in when you
enter duality, and therefore cannot be one with the River of Life—and
therefore must take everything by force, for it will not come to you
easily when you are not willing to surrender yourself, your separate
sense of self, into that flow of the River of Life.
And so, this is the very consciousness of taking by force, and the
fallen ones had no other option. And thus, they attempted to make
it seem like taking by force was a virtue, and that those who were
the best at forcing others were the ones that were best suited to
rule, and were indeed the ones that should be seen as the most sophisticated—even
as the representatives of God on Earth. This is the height of their
arrogance. The Roman emperors proclaimed themselves as gods on Earth,
requiring the people to worship them as such and accept that everything
they said or did was infallible.
Ahh, the dream of infallibility. Is that not also the dream of a stationary
orbit, that something stands still and can be preserved. For the emperor's
word is always infallible, no matter what it is and no matter what
the consequences. And this is precisely the consciousness that was
carried from the Roman Empire, and as the Roman Empire began to crumble
was transferred to the Roman church, the Roman Catholic Church. Where
it also was declared that the Pope was infallible, that he was speaking
for God, that he was the only true representative of Christ on Earth.
Understanding the challenge that Jesus hurled at humankind
So then, this is the consciousness that humankind has been up against
for these past 2,000 years. Certainly they have been up against it
before, but they have not really been up against it; they have been
subjected to it. For it was only 2,000 years ago that humankind received
a true opportunity to see and transcend this consciousness. And what
gave them that opportunity to transcend the fallen consciousness,
the consciousness that something on Earth can be infallible, can be
permanent? Well, it was, my beloved, the incarnation of Jesus as the
living Christ. When he walked the Earth those 2,000 years ago, he
hurled the challenge at humankind: there is a higher reality than
the fallen consciousness. "Ye are of your father the devil, and
the lust of your father will ye do, for he was a murderer from the
beginning." He murdered truth, the fallen ones murdered truth,
murdered innocence, murdered the very transcendence of life.
For life is transcendence. Without transcendence, there is no life.
Life is not in a stationary orbit; life is constantly transcending
and renewing itself. And a species that will not adapt and renew itself,
will become extinct. That is the one valuable lesson that can be learned
from the entire concept of evolution and the survival of the fittest—meaning
the most adaptable, those who are most willing to transcend the old
matrix.
And so, look at the life of Jesus. Born in humble circumstances, born
like any other man—despite the myths that were added later about a
star appearing. I was there as Saint Joseph – or rather, as Joseph
the carpenter – when Jesus was born. You have seen the images of a
manger with a star appearing above it. Well, I was there and I saw
no such star, my beloved. This was an entirely metaphorical thing,
that could only be deduced by those who had inner sight—not a physically
visible star, as the legends would have it.
For what have they done to Christ? He embodied as an "ordinary"
human being in order to show the potential that all have. The fallen
ones, of course, did not want people to realize their true potential,
so what did they do. Well, first the Roman emperors tried to suppress
Christianity. And then, when it became clear to one pragmatic emperor
– one political animal by the name of Constantine – that it could
not be suppressed, what did they do? Well, they said, "Let's
use it then—if we can't kill it, let's use it. Let's accept it as
the official religion, but of course in doing so, let us add a few
subtle conditions that no one will notice—a few conditions that twist
and turn Christianity.”
Not that this was an invention of the emperor Constantine; it was
already started by other fallen beings who had joined Christianity,
and who had started to glorify Jesus and set him up as an exception
rather than as an example. And so, it was easy for Constantine to
magnify this, to put the support of the Roman Empire behind those
who had that view of Christianity that most suited his political ends.
And so, gradually, you saw the formation of a church which elevated
Christ to the status of God, thereby being fundamentally different
from other people on this planet, therefore being completely unsuited
to serve as an example for them and their potential, for he was so
different. He was of the same substance as the father, he was God
from the very beginning.
Well, my beloved, you are all God from the very beginning, because
without him was not anything made that was made. And thus "ye
are gods" as Jesus himself said. And that, of course, is precisely
what the fallen ones do not want you to realize. They do not want
you to realize your true co-creative potential.
Not that you are gods in the sense of the fallen ones wanting to set
themselves up as god on Earth. You are not God in the fullest sense;
you are individualizations of God. That does not mean that anyone
of you is superior to any other, for how can one expression of God
be superior to another expression of God? You are all individualizations
of God, you are all equal in your uniqueness. Yet what the fallen
consciousness has done is it has imposed that value judgment, whereby
it now becomes possible to say that due to certain characteristics
here on Earth, one person is unique, one person is above all others—be
it an emperor, or a pope or Christ himself.
The consciousness of elitism must be transcended
This is the very foundation for the consciousness of elitism, the
consciousness of exclusivity. And this is the consciousness that humankind
has been faced with the challenge of transcending during the past
2,000 years. For by the very embodiment of Jesus himself, the challenge
became absolute, in the sense that no human being on Earth has been
able to ignore it completely. Yet of course, many human beings have
ignored it to a very large extent.
And what you see in the past 2,000 years is indeed the pattern that
the majority of the population have wanted strong leaders to rule
them, precisely because that meant that they could ignore the challenge
of acknowledging and expressing their true creative potential. Look
at the teachings we have brought forth about the human ego about dramas
personal and epic. Look at the teachings and read between the lines,
and you will see that what we have given you are the very keys to
overcoming this precise consciousness that I am addressing here. Whereby
you overcome your own reluctance to acknowledge yourself as a co-creator
with God, to acknowledge your co-creative potential.
