Feeling the energy of anger against women
And so, once again, this messenger has been here in Rome now for several
days. He has walked around here, observed, made certain conclusions
and – as is customary for him – made certain jokes about the Catholic
Church and the Pope and what he has seen here. But he has been unwilling,
in his own mind, to label it, for he did not want to be critical.
Yet this afternoon, as his companion was taking the dictation from
Mary Magdalene, I allowed him to feel
an energy that he had not been willing to sense before, because he
was not willing to look with the heart and to sense the vibration.
He had come to certain realizations in his mind, but there was a particular
energy he was not willing to see in the Catholic Church because he
has overcome it in himself lifetimes ago.
So this afternoon I allowed him – as Mary Magdalene was speaking inside
Saint Peter's Basilica – I allowed him to feel the opposition to that
release of light, the return current, the reaction to that release
of light. And he started by feeling uneasy, then agitated, and then,
as he tuned in, he suddenly saw it. He saw the energy for what it
was, and he saw that this energy is indeed the Catholic Church's anger
against women.
This anger is immense. This anger is an immense beast
that has been created by the Catholic Church. But it is actually older
than the Catholic Church, for, of course, Christianity took over the
Old Testament from the Jewish religion, and there you find the story
of the fall of Eve. And so, this anger goes back into the mist of
history, and, of course, the Catholic Church is truly not the Catholic
Church; it is the Roman Catholic church. And quite frankly, as you
know the word “Catholic” means “universal” it really should be called
the Roman Church, for it is 99% Roman and 1% Catholic.
And the Roman Empire, as you clearly can see if you study it, also
had immense anger against women. Look at this in the emperor who kills
his own mother, for he feels threatened by the female energy. Look
at how women were suppressed, treated almost as slaves, how they would
have sexual relations with their own sisters, or they would rape women,
treat them as sexual objects. So you see that immense anger, a combination,
starting back in the Jewish religion blending with the anger from
the Roman Empire, now having an anger both from what we might call
the worldly, secular direction and the spiritual direction.
Anger and the Peter consciousness
And so, the reality is, of course, that this is all focused – as Mary
Magdalene mentioned in her dictation – this is all focused in Peter
himself. If you read the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, you will see there
clearly described how Peter was jealous of Mary Magdalene, because
Jesus had a special relationship with her and had even given her a
special spiritual instruction not given to the male disciples. And
so, you see that Peter was the opening for the rejection of the role
of women in Christianity.
And therefore, again, you see it is no coincidence that the Catholic
Church claims to be based on Peter, for it is indeed an expression
of the consciousness of Peter, the anger against the female element,
the anger against women. But beyond that the anger against the female
in oneself, for you are all male and female, in the sense that you
have both polarities in your being. And you are all dealing with the
dynamic described in the book of Genesis about the fall of Eve. As
Saint
Germain’s discoursed on yesterday about the myths of Romulus and
Remus. Behind these ancient myths is a deeper meaning that can be
understood when you are willing to look beyond the literal, superficial,
surface interpretation. Thus, if you go beyond that, you know that
it was not only women that fell; it was, so to speak, the female element
that became susceptible to taking on the lower form. Yet here is the
essential truth that has never been brought out in a public forum.
It was not the female element that fell, it was the Conscious You
that decided to reject responsibility for itself, it was the Conscious
You that refused to take this responsibility.
In refusing to take this responsibility, the conscious you created
that division in itself, in its own being. And as Saint Germain and
I have now explained, after you had created this division, you did
not want to face it. If you are not willing to take responsibility
for yourself, how can you face that you are the one who made the choice
to create the division? And so, you left it behind, you wanted to
get away from it—and you thought you could go out and leave it in
the forest. But it did not die in the forest, for you could not run
away from your perception.
And thus, as
I have explained you started seeing the world through what you
were not willing to see in yourself. And thus you started projecting
that state of consciousness onto the world, meaning the female aspect
of your own being. And the female can only take on what is projected
upon it, and thus it is correct that the female element is what manifested
the imperfect form. But it was not the female element that chose to
eat the forbidden fruit of duality, it was the Conscious You.
Now, you have a right to experiment with your free will, your co-creative
abilities. You have a right to create any experience you want. You
have a right to experience the world through the filter of duality,
and there is nothing inherently wrong with it—if you are willing to
use it as a learning experience. But you cannot use it as a learning
experience if you are in denial and not willing to look at it. As
long as you are not willing to look at it, you must continue projecting
it outside yourself, meaning the Conscious You then projects it upon
the female aspect of your being, you project it upon other people.
And now you start blaming other people, blaming the mother light,
blaming the female element of your own being. And thus, you have the
situation where many who are in a female body have come to accept
this blame against women, feeling they have to take it on, a feel
guilty for it. And many who are in a male body have also accepted
it, and feel therefore that they need to look down upon women, to
seek control women or to feel anger against women. And what you see
in the Roman Empire was a brutal attempt to control women and to put
them down and to hold them in a certain place, where they could not
be a threat to men.
Why the female gives rise to anger in the male
But why is there this need to put down the female element? What is
it that the female element represents that gives rise to such anger
in the male element? Well, it is precisely two things.
First of all, the female element, the female aspect of creation, is
not devoid of consciousness, and is not devoid of wisdom. The female
element knows exactly what will be the consequences of everything
that is projected upon it from the masculine element of consciousness.
And thus – if you are willing to listen to the female aspect of your
own being – you can always know the consequences of your choices before
you make or implement those choices. But of course, if you are not
willing to look at yourself, if you are not willing to examine yourself
in the mirror, then you are not going to want to listen to this. For
only those who take responsibility for themselves are willing to listen
and consider the consequences. Those who are not taking responsibility
fall prey to the fallen consciousness—that they can escape the consequences
of their actions, or that they can compensate by doing some outer
action that will then guarantee their entry into the kingdom of heaven,
even though they have not looked at the beam in their own eye, as
we have now explained many times.
And so, this is one aspect of the feminine, and therefore even in
society, especially a male-dominated society, women can represent
that voice of reason, that voice that can help you make right decisions
– if you are willing – but can also be an immense threat to the male
ego that wants to do what it wants to do and then never mind the consequences.
Those we will try and run away from tomorrow, for today we want to
have war, we want to have sex, we want to take whatever we want and
experience it—and then we will worry about the karma later, but we
think we can cheat our way out of it.
And so, this is one reason why the female were put down so that they
could not provide that voice of balance that could have prevented
the men from going to war and destroying themselves or their society.
Look at the Roman Empire: if women had been given a voice, there would
not have been the division within the empire, nor would there have
been the vulnerability. But then, of course, if women had been given
a voice from the beginning, the Roman Empire would not have been such
an outgoing empire based on conquest. It would have been a sustainable
culture and civilization that would not have collapsed.
Withdrawing space from the anger against women
And so, the other element of the female is, of course, what we have
called the second law of thermodynamics, the contracting force of
the mother, that will break down that which is created out of duality.
And it also has been blamed upon women by the men, through the concept
of original sin and many other subtle ideas. And so, given these two
aspects – the wisdom and the breaking down of all that is not balanced,
both being elements of balance, my beloved – then you can see how
there has arisen that anger against women, that immense anger that
wants to destroy, that wants to rape, that wants to kill women, wants
to put them down so they can never rise and threaten this male-dominated
culture—that thinks it has created the perfect structure on Earth.
The structure that holds the keys to the kingdom of heaven, as the
Catholic Church claims.
They think they will be guaranteed to go into heaven because of the
structure they have created on Earth. And they do not want the women
to come with their wisdom and tell them this is not so, nor do they
want the Divine Mothers’ contracting force to break down or shatter
their structures or the consciousness behind it. This then, is a very
strong and powerful energy on this planet, certainly found throughout
the planet, but I can tell you that it is focused nowhere more powerfully
than right here in Rome. I can also tell you that the very focal point
for this energy is below St. Peter's Basilica in the crypt that holds
the tomb of Peter.
This is not, of course, exclusively the responsibility of Peter or
the soul of Peter. It is simply that this has become a focal point
because it has been such a focal point for the institution of the
Roman Catholic Church, claiming its authority based on Peter. And
so, through the focus of that church, the anger against women has
been focused right there in that space, in that tomb.
And so, given that many people around the world have come to see this
anger against women, and given that my two messengers have risen to
a level of overcoming this anger in their relationship – transcending
it completely, establishing a level of peace that can hold this anger
at bay – I, Gautama, have decided to withdraw the space underneath
Saint Peter's Basilica that allows this anger against women to exist.
I, Gautama, Lord of the World, withdraw that space in this minute.
It is therefore gone; the space is no longer there, and that means
that there is no longer that focal point for the anger.
This is not to say that this is a worldwide withdrawal of the space,
yet it can become so as more and more women stand up and as more and
more men start looking at themselves in the mirror rather than blaming
it on women or refusing to listen to the voice of balance coming from
women. And so, it is indeed our hope and intention that this will
spread and that this space can be withdrawn worldwide for this anger
against women. But for now the very fact that the planetary focal
point for this energy has been withdrawn is a significant step forward,
that will make it much easier for women to throw off the yoke of suppression
and blame—and will make it much easier for men to throw off the yoke
of anger that entraps them even more than it entraps the women. For
the women in their wisdom can often see beyond it, but of course the
men cannot in their denial.
Those who see the least are trapped the most
And so, who are most trapped? Well, as always “those who see the least
are trapped the most.” That, my beloved, is a sentence that you might
allow to be burned into your mind, so you can remember it, for it
applies to each and every one of you. Those who see the least are
trapped the most, for it is that which you do not see that imprisons
you. The chains that you see are not a major concern, for they are
often caused by the low state of consciousness of planet Earth and
the free-will choices of other people. And although they may be unpleasant
and give you certain limitations and grief, then they are not ultimately
what will hold you back. For no condition on Earth can hold you back
from rising to higher levels of consciousness, nothing outside of
yourself can hold back your growth in consciousness.
It is that which is inside your consciousness that holds back your
growth, and it holds back your growth precisely because you do not
see it. That which is not seen is what imprisons you. If you will
make progress towards Buddhahood, remember this. And then remember
also that that which is not seen is actually seen, but it is not seen
for what it is, for your perception is polluted. And thus, you will
often project anger upon others and blame them for being anger while
in reality you are expressing anger but you are not able to see it,
for you do not see what you do as anger—whereas you are very quick
to see what others do as anger.
Everything is a matter of perspective, everything is a matter of perception.
When you allow the conscious you to enter into duality, you see everything
from the perspective of duality. Thus, your perception is polluted
and you do not see what you are doing. As Jesus said, “Father forgive
them, for they know not what they do.” They did not see what they
were doing to the living Christ. Yet I, at the level of Buddhahood,
would say, “What is the point in forgiving them if it teaches them
nothing? Better that they experience the consequences of their state
of consciousness, that they might actually begin to wonder why they
continue to run into this or that problem, why they continue to run
in to a certain kind of people—until they begin to realize that perhaps
it is something in themselves that has been attracting these circumstances
or people and that, in reality, it is because you need to learn the
eternal lesson that what you project is what will be mirrored back
to you by the cosmic mirror.
Where does creativity come from?
And thus, when you project anger against women, what will the cosmic
mirror mirror back to you? It will mirror back opposition in some
form, as you constantly saw the Roman Empire encountering opposition
from almost every corner. And so, you see how the Roman Empire considered
itself the superior civilization on Earth, thinking it had a superior
culture, organization and army. Yet it was eventually overrun by the
so-called barbarians, and from a certain perspective one might say
that they had a lower level of civilization, organization and culture.
But nevertheless they overran the Roman Empire, and so were they really
that inferior, was the Roman Empire so superior?
For what was it that prevented the Roman Empire from adapting to the
presence of the barbarians, so they could hold them back? It was that
the Roman Empire was not willing to change, was not willing to adapt,
was not willing to reinvent itself, was not was not willing to transcend
and be creative. For you see, where does creativity come from?
Well, it comes from both the masculine and the feminine aspect of
God, but do not fall into the trap of thinking that the Ma-ter light
is passively taking on form and therefore the female element is passive
and noncreative. It is not so. There is wisdom in the feminine, and
thus in the ideal balance the masculine element decides what to do
– envisions what to do – and the feminine element envisions how it
can be done. And thus, if there is not balance – for there is anger
against the female element – then you may have a vision, you may even
have a correct or a constructive vision, but if you have hatred against
the mother, anger against the female element, you will not see how
it can be done. And thus, the manifestation will fall short, as indeed
the barbarians who came to Rome had a much greater mastery of the
female element, for they had taken what little they had and had made
the most creative use of it. And thus, they found ways to adapt to
the Roman military organization, so that they could defeat the Roman
legions that had for centuries seemed undefeatable.
And so, this is where you see that organization and structure only
works up onto a point, for when the organization becomes a prison
that holds back creativity, then it can no longer adapt. And then,
the contracting force of the mother will inevitably cause it to break
down. There will inevitably come someone who mirrors back the aggression
that was sent out by the Roman Empire and the desire to conquer. Yet
because they are more connected to the mother element, and thus more
adaptable and creative, they will find a way to defeat the Romans,
who cannot change their strategy and tactics.
Why the Roman Church survived the Roman Empire
Look at the Roman Empire and the buildings. Everything was regimented,
everything was built over a theme and repeated that theme without
room for creativity or variation. There was, as we have explained,
the killing of individuality and creativity—and thus, there was no
openness for adaptation as times changed. As we have said before,
space is Buddha; time is mother, and an element of the mother is precisely
that there must be change. This is what is written into the second
law of thermodynamics.
When a system becomes closed – meaning that it does not change – then
it will be broken down over time, for time demands change. Time says
that that which is created out of duality can never stand still, can
never be maintained over time. For time is the great equalizer that
breaks down everything to its lowest possible level of organization
and structure. Time is the enemy of structure, for structure – once
created – becomes a beast that wants to preserve itself, rather than
continually transcending itself as is demanded by the creative flow
of life.
And so, you see the failure of the Roman Empire to adapt, and thus
you see that what survived the Roman Empire was not the empire, not
the secular militant branch of the empire, but the later creation
of the empire, namely the Roman Church—which – partly because it was
based on the teachings of Christ and partly because it had been persecuted
for centuries by the Romans before it became the state religion –
was much more in tune with the matter aspect, with the mother aspect.
And thus, the Christian church up until Constantine had been forced
to adapt in order to survive. And therefore, as the Roman Church was
created, there was still enough remnants of creativity for the Roman
Church to survive the Roman Empire. Yet then once the leaders of the
church began to think that they had it all made, then you saw the
period of the dark ages, where the creativity had run out, the flame
of creativity had gone out. And now there was only the incessant desire
to preserve the structure by destroying all real or perceived threats
to the structure.
And the more the desire, the more the opposition that wanted to break
down the structure. And so, you saw the Crusades, you saw the Inquisition
you saw also, my beloved, the incessant persecution of women in the
so-called witch hunts. Do you know how many thousands, tens of thousands,
hundreds of thousands of women were killed in the witch hunts and
the Inquisition? Any women who had tuned in to the wisdom of the mother
– using what today would be called natural healing methods – such
a woman would be persecuted and likely killed by the Catholic Church.
What a travesty this was, for it could indeed have provided an incredible
spurt of creativity to take society, the society of Europe, out of
the dark ages much sooner than it happened through the male scientists.
The Catholic Church’s anger against women
And this, of course, is something that many people in the modern age
have begun to see. There has not yet been a public outcry against
this anger and persecution of women by the Catholic Church. There
has not yet been a willingness to go back and air the dirty laundry
of history, to see what really happened and to expose the consciousness
behind it.
Yet that consciousness can be seen even today, where I can assure
you that if you could hear the secret meetings that take place between
the Pope and the cardinals and other important figures of the Catholic
Church, you would be shocked at the anger against women that is being
expressed openly at such meetings. You would be shocked at the attitude
towards women by some of these men, that claim to be the representatives
of Christ on Earth—but of course are not. I can assure you that if
the world knew what is going on inside the corridors of the Vatican
and the Catholic structure of how women are used as sexual objects
by priests and cardinals and bishops – and then put away secretly
or paid off to be silent – then the world would be shocked that such
abuse of women and such a degrading attitude towards women can still
exist in the Western world in this day and age.
And precisely because there is a growing awareness of this problem,
I have decided to give an opportunity for people to rise up and demand
the exposure of this consciousness of anger against women. And also
an opportunity for them to overcome the momentums and the blindness
that they may indeed not only expose it, but also clear up those ancient
records—and therefore open up the way for the Aquarian Age, where
men and women must be seen as complete equals.
