Joyfully I bring divine blessings that can touch everyone here in a very vital way.\u00a0 You need to raise your consciousness to this reality.\u00a0 You need to remove the barriers that prevent you from perceiving the Lord’s presence in your life, His love for you.<\/p>\n
Let me start this lecture with some words on feeling God’s presence.\u00a0 Even though you have strengthened your faith and your realization that this world is infused with God, few have as yet made personal contact with Him.\u00a0 He became human so as to always be close to you in a very personal, loving way.\u00a0 For most believers God is a much less personal, a much more vague and general experience.\u00a0 And you know that you can experience only that which you can conceive of and believe in.<\/p>\n
If you seriously long, pray, and search for a realization of Jesus Christ’s personal love for you, the answers will come forth.\u00a0 Perhaps you will not recognize the first answers as such.\u00a0 They may have something to do with specific barriers that prevent you from this experience, this reality.\u00a0 They may bring up new, or again old, material on your path that you need to work on for your purification.\u00a0 These are the answers!\u00a0 Once the barriers begin to crumble, you will experience what it means to feel Jesus Christ’s personal love for you.<\/p>\n
You are always involved in a vicious circle here.\u00a0 When you feel unworthy, unlovable, unacceptable, it is impossible to believe that Christ can love you personally, regardless of your present state of development.\u00a0 So you need to forge ahead and reestablish your self-acceptance and self-respect.\u00a0 Yet this can be done only when you recognize and oust real, justified guilt, without annihilating yourself in the process.\u00a0 I have shown you many times how to do this.\u00a0 The self-condemnation that so often accompanies insight into your lower self obstructs the cleansing and liberating process that makes room for self-love in the healthy sense.<\/p>\n
It is also true that without at least a slight awareness that you are personally precious and beloved to the personified God\u2014Jesus Christ\u2014it is extremely difficult to accept your guilts and to find your real value.\u00a0 So what you need is a continuous double approach that combines your determination to search for and face all of your lower self and to understand all of your being with compassion and realism, with your direct prayer and deep desire to feel Jesus’ presence near you, His concern for you, His deep, abiding interest in every smallest detail of your life.<\/p>\n
As you thus proceed on your path, the glory that will come to you cannot be put into words.\u00a0 Nothing else is comparable to the knowledge that the Lord loves you personally, cares for you, never forgets you and always protects you, no matter what the momentary circumstances are.<\/p>\n
However, this total fulfillment can come only as you totally surrender to the will of God, without any reservations, in every large and small aspect of your life and your being.\u00a0 We have discussed this so often, and yet how difficult it remains for a number of you.\u00a0 You keep holding back.\u00a0 You still have your little corners of holding out, of believing that your selfwill knows better than God what makes you happy.\u00a0 Yet Jesus Christ is here to give you eternal life, safety and total fulfillment, if only you trust Him and give yourself to Him.\u00a0 You will be sustained with all the juices of life and joy in a constant flow of renewal.<\/p>\n
You cannot eliminate your fears and your distrust of others unless you constantly renew the practice of total surrender to the highest within yourself.\u00a0 For you cannot subsist alone.\u00a0 No creature can.\u00a0 All created beings hang together on a chain of interdependence\u2014physically, emotionally and spiritually.\u00a0 When the weight of dependence is put where it belongs\u2014on God, on His personalized aspect who is personally near you\u2014then you can create a healthy center of gravity anchored deep within your soul, for that is where to find Him.\u00a0 His presence merges with your higher self.\u00a0 You truly become one.<\/p>\n
Thus all interdependence with others will be free from neurotic dependency.\u00a0 It will be healthy interdependence that will give you clear vision, the ability to adjudge realistically where your trust is justified and where it is not.\u00a0 Therefore you will have a healthy relationship with your leaders and your followers.\u00a0 Without that proper center of gravity in God, you will always be confused, live in fear, distrust your judgment, become either too distrustful in the wrong place and\/or too gullible in the wrong place.<\/p>\n
So, my beloved friends, make it your business now to deepen your desire for personal contact with Christ.\u00a0 Strengthen your commitment to Him, to give over all of your life to Him in the total trust that He deserves.\u00a0 Your human fears can never be assuaged otherwise.<\/p>\n
I spoke in a lecture about one basic existential fear that all human beings share, whether they are aware of it or not.\u00a0 This is the fear of annihilation of consciousness\u2014which you fear will take place after the body separates from the spirit self.\u00a0 To no longer exist is the most insidious fear that you must meet and deal with.\u00a0 Only through total surrender to God can you do this.\u00a0 Only through removing your impurities can you do this. Only through experiencing rather than denying your various pains can you do this.<\/p>\n
The Creator has filled your earth sphere with signs, with symbols which say loudly and clearly that nothing is ever lost, that nothing can ever disappear or disintegrate into nothingness.\u00a0 You will recognize these symbols as you awaken.\u00a0 The awakening depends utterly on your surrender to the Creator and to His personalized presence in your life\u2014Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
One such beautiful symbol is the sea.\u00a0 Just observe the ebb and flow of the sea.\u00a0 The tide flows forward in great masses, only to recede and diminish.\u00a0 Where does it go?\u00a0 It seems to disappear, to disintegrate, to no longer exist.\u00a0 From your vantage point on the shore, where there was water before there is none now.\u00a0 But you know that the water does not disintegrate into nothingness.\u00a0 It continues to be, to exist in the greater pool, never losing its unique quality, and will return.<\/p>\n
Could it be different with individual consciousness?\u00a0 Could individual consciousness go through all the painstaking steps of developing and cleansing itself, of growing and expansion, with no purpose?\u00a0 The more you establish your own inner connections between your life experiences and your attitudes, the more deeply you will understand that there are no arbitrary coincidences.\u00a0 Your life experiences stand in direct relationship to you, to who you are now, to what you express and what you deliberately or inadvertently create.<\/p>\n
Awareness of these connections in the microcosm of your personal existence inevitably also makes the universe comprehensible in an entirely new way.\u00a0 You must then see that everything has purpose, that nothing is for naught, that there is a magnificent design at work whose purpose is to bring everything to perfection, to bliss, to oneness\u2014and therefore to ineffable peace.\u00a0 You can no longer doubt the design behind events when you explore your microcosm painstakingly, honestly and courageously.\u00a0 And when you see the fabric of wisdom and of purpose in all that comes to pass, you will simultaneously recognize the Great Spirit of the Creator at work.<\/p>\n
When you work with the aid of the personalized God, who is always available to you, always responsive when you reach out for His help, you will gradually establish connections that were totally obscure before.\u00a0 Nothing could be more painful and more frightening than the disconnectedness between a painful event in your life and its inner cause.\u00a0 Its appearance seems inexplicable and inconsequential.\u00a0 To establish the causal connection is relief, release, liberation and enrichment beyond description.<\/p>\n
There exists a certain rhythm that you need to discover, sense and accept.\u00a0 Again I use the analogy of the sea.\u00a0 Ebb and flow function according to a very specific rhythm, a rhythm that has been established under higher orders.\u00a0 This rhythm is never broken.\u00a0 Only when specific upheavals interfere\u2014such as earthquakes, tidal waves or human destructiveness\u2014is the rhythm temporarily disrupted.\u00a0 The sea is in crisis, so to speak, but the crisis conspires to reestablish its unique rhythm, its harmony with the rest of creation.\u00a0 The sea has the wisdom to follow this pattern.\u00a0 Humans, with their disruptive minds, too often make themselves insensitive to their unique rhythm patterns with which they need to be in harmony.<\/p>\n
When you seek a connection between an event and your inner person, when you work to recognize it and pray for help and the answer still fails to come, you may be out of rhythm.\u00a0 The waiting time may then be used to find qualities within yourself of which you can learn only in times of ebb, never in times of flow. \u00a0The time span of the ebb and flow of the sea, of high tide and low tide, is never exactly the same.\u00a0 Mostly one lasts longer than the other, if measured with earthly time.\u00a0 Time relationships often change.\u00a0 It is the same with the human being’s rhythm.\u00a0 The time of fruition may come sooner in some areas, the time of waiting may last longer in others.<\/p>\n
Sense your rhythm in all things.\u00a0 Feel your daily life in accordance with your personal universal rhythm pattern.\u00a0 It exists as definitively as you carry your life pattern within your soul substance.\u00a0 If you work, rest, play, live, move and have your being in harmony with your unique rhythm pattern, you will live a much more fruitful, creative, joyful and peaceful life.\u00a0 Much harassment and restlessness will fall off your burdened shoulders.\u00a0 You need to raise your consciousness specifically to this phenomenon.\u00a0 Think about this concept, to begin with.\u00a0 Meditate that it exists.\u00a0 Stir up your imagination and feel into living a day in rhythm, as contrasted with your usual unconscious, rhythmless existence.\u00a0 Once you can visualize the difference, concentrate on it daily and ask your personal guidance to help you focus on it and stay increasingly in your rhythm pattern.<\/p>\n
When, following a comparatively long time of search and work, a painful personal event seems utterly disconnected from any personal cause or meaning, something in your rhythm pattern demands that you accept this as a rhythmic phenomenon.\u00a0 True, the rhythmic phenomenon is also determined by underlying causes that exist within the particular consciousness.\u00a0 But only when the rhythm pattern is respected, accepted, adhered to and utilized in the most constructive way, will the rhythm flow without disturbance and take its natural course.\u00a0 Doubt, rebellion, anger, belief in a meaningless universe that makes you suffer\u2014these are destructive responses to your rhythm pattern that delay its natural flow.\u00a0 Equally disruptive is the self-rejecting attitude, “I am so bad that I deserve to be punished this way.\u201d<\/p>\n
You have all learned on this path what a constructive response to a painful event is.\u00a0 “What can I learn here?\u00a0 What could my response be to this seeming delay that would most further my development?\u00a0 If there is anything in my lower self that I am not yet aware of or not sufficiently connected with, I want to see it fully, without ever losing sight of the fact that God loves me and I am God’s unique expression.”\u00a0 These are positive responses that will help the rhythm to take its harmonious course.\u00a0 Then, in its own time, often when you least expect it, new connections will open up, sometimes pouring out with such rich profusion that suddenly all woe will disappear and the suffering will turn into the blessing it always had the potential to be.<\/p>\n
Again I say that personal contact with Jesus Christ will help you to live in harmony and make all the necessary connections.\u00a0 But here, too, the rhythm pattern is at work.\u00a0 Mentally, you may be completely reconciled to His reality.\u00a0 You may have used your personal will for total surrender and you may sincerely mean it.\u00a0 Yet you may not have experienced the emotional reality of Christ’s sweet and loving presence.\u00a0 You may wait for this to happen.\u00a0 You may become impatient and then begin to doubt, thus disrupting the seed you have sown.\u00a0 When the emotional experience fails to materialize for a while, it is not that He keeps you waiting.\u00a0 It is that your inner barriers need to give way.<\/p>\n
That can happen only within the context of your unique, personal rhythm pattern.\u00a0 Remember that and do not despair.\u00a0 Christ is here.\u00a0 He hears you, He loves you, He protects you, He is deeply concerned with you, even though your senses are still too dull to perceive it.\u00a0 The time will come suddenly when you will be intensely aware of this fact.\u00a0 You will feel His loving, healing arms in which you can always rest and find new sustenance for your life task.<\/p>\n
All doubt is evil.\u00a0 But since evil has no permanent substance, you can easily dispel it.\u00a0 Bring your positive aggression to bear upon it, which is very contrary to what you usually do.\u00a0 By habit, you put all aggression into the service of lower-self aims, while keeping an apathetic, passive attitude toward the good you desire to receive from life.\u00a0 Or you are passive and apathetic when you are enveloped in the negativities that stem from your unpurified self and that therefore draw evil forces to you.\u00a0 It then seems much easier to let all aggression out in a destructive way and give in to negative influences without using any of your aggressive aspects to either dispel them or to assert the positive forces within and around you.<\/p>\n
This needs to be changed and you have the power and the means to do it.\u00a0 But you must be aware of the displacement and put more awareness and clear intention into straightening out the imbalance.\u00a0 Visualize yourself taking a firm stand against all thoughts that are negative and divisive in any way.\u00a0 Seriously question any thoughts that seem correct but fail to give you a feeling of peace, love and unity, that make you feel disharmonious and in any way uncomfortable.\u00a0 Just being willing to let in the light of truth\u2014the truth of God rather than your temporary perception of truth\u2014will create a shift in your consciousness.<\/p>\n
The result may not be immediate, but sooner or later you will have less of a tight urge to pursue, often with undue aggression, untruthful and therefore negative and constricting aims.\u00a0 Visualize yourself questioning your position in each situation that creates a disharmony within you and\/or around you.\u00a0 Just see yourself in your imagination doing that.\u00a0 Visualize yourself always surrendering your position for God’s vision of truth.\u00a0 Often it may not be a question of sharply divided right versus wrong, but the truth may still be different from the way you see it.<\/p>\n
When you visualize yourself surrendering to God’s vision, you will find out the truth of any particular situation.\u00a0 You will be enlightened and you will lose a tremendous burden.\u00a0 The relief and liberation are enormous, especially if you do not have too big a stake in your egotistic self-righteousness.<\/p>\n
However, if you feel personally humiliated by being wrong, by being imperfect, by having made a mistake, it will be much more difficult for you to let go of the tight hold of your position.\u00a0 The reason is that you secretly hold a low opinion of yourself.\u00a0 The lower this opinion is, the greater must be your stake in some prideful, egotistical, self-elevating and self-righteous position that, at the same time, creates\u00a0 projected judgments of others.<\/p>\n
Please, my friends, remember these words well, because here your personal contact with Jesus Christ is again your best solution.\u00a0 Only through allowing yourself to know\u2014and later to feel\u2014His love and total acceptance of who you are now, no matter how flawed, imperfect and destructive your lower self may be, will you be able to do the same.\u00a0 Only then will you trust your ultimate divine nature.\u00a0 Then you will be able to afford the luxury, if I may put it this way, of accepting your distortions\u2014your sins, if you will\u2014without losing the ground under your feet.\u00a0 And that is the healthy position which allows you to reach truth and harmony with yourself, with others and with life.<\/p>\n
Then you can go to the next step and visualize putting your aggressive forces into the service of positive aims.\u00a0 You can refute negative influences.\u00a0 You can talk to your own false thoughts with firmness and reasonableness.\u00a0 See yourself doing that.\u00a0 Invite Christ to come to your assistance in this endeavor.<\/p>\n
Then claim with all the vigor at your disposal, all the aggression you are beginning to transform from negative to positive, that you want only the will of God, that you trust the will of God will bring you the best you could ever hope for, that any distrust of the will of the Highest is a lie you need to rid yourself of.\u00a0 The more aggression you put into such declarations and intents, the better the seeds will grow in your soul substance.<\/p>\n
Your aggression itself needs to be transformed.\u00a0 This will enable you to become who you are meant to be, who you actually are already on another level of reality.\u00a0 Perhaps some of you can occasionally begin to visualize another picture of yourself.\u00a0 Imagine your real being, free from all the encumbrances that burden you now.\u00a0 It does not matter whether these encumbrances are in your body, in your psyche, or in your relationships to others and to the world.\u00a0 They are all expressions of pain, the pain you suffer from some untruthfulness contained within your psyche.<\/p>\n
It is not easy to ferret out the untruthfulness.\u00a0 Sometimes it is right on the surface and it will become clear to you after only a slight effort on your part to want to see it.\u00a0 At other times your defensive blocks blot out your own view, but they are nevertheless obvious enough to others, who could help you if you let them.\u00a0 This is why working with others is such an important aspect of the pathwork\u2014both in the helper\/worker relationship, and in groups, as well as in your interactions in daily life.\u00a0 But then there is also untruthfulness so deeply buried that it may take a long time and many trials before you can bring it close enough to the surface level to recognize it.\u00a0 Such areas were not necessarily those you planned to take on in this incarnation, but your spirit may nevertheless have chosen to tackle them if you have fully completed your original task.\u00a0 I spoke about this in a recent lecture.<\/p>\n
Once the untruthfulness is on the surface and you are able and willing to see and confront it, the moment has come to transform your aggression.\u00a0\u00a0 This is also the moment when a further visualization can take place.\u00a0 Imagine that your true being\u2014which means your being in truth, all in truth\u2014observes the suffering part of you that is squeezed into a smaller world in which you sometimes appear to suffocate.\u00a0 Your real being is without any shades of untruthfulness, error, distortion\u2014sin\u2014and therefore in total wellbeing.\u00a0 There is no pain there.\u00a0 This true being observes your earth being that has undertaken to correct the distorted part with compassion for the momentary difficulties.\u00a0 But it sees no tragedy, for it knows that all is well and that the temporary suffering must lead to salvation.<\/p>\n
Salvation.\u00a0 That word!\u00a0 There are a number of words which many of you have become allergic to.\u00a0 They are words used in the Bible and in organized religion, words that have indeed often been misused and abused.\u00a0 But these words have nevertheless a true origin that should not be forgotten.\u00a0 The name of divine manifestation in human form\u2014Jesus Christ\u2014is, as you well know, one such word.\u00a0 Yet if you heard a description of God as form, as personal helper, friend, guide, as all-forgiver, as a being of translucent light and perfection, you could accept it.\u00a0 So do not let the word “Jesus Christ” stand in your way.\u00a0 He is the Christ, and He was Jesus when he incarnated.<\/p>\n
Similarly, you have associations with the words sin, hell, evil, devil.\u00a0 All these words have been grossly abused.\u00a0 That is true.\u00a0 But they nevertheless indicate only the same facts that we now call by different names, such as lower-self aspects, negativities, destructiveness, a painful state of mind.<\/p>\n
Now what about salvation?\u00a0 The traditional interpretation of this word leaves a lot to be desired.\u00a0 It lends itself easily to misunderstanding, although the more enlightened among religionists do perceive the truth.\u00a0 Salvation means, among other things, Christ’s endless forgiveness and acceptance.\u00a0 It means that you can always find your way to God, no matter what you have done, no matter what your lower self still wishes to do.\u00a0 The door is always open, you are never, never locked out.<\/p>\n
All you have to do is knock.\u00a0 Ask for the bread of God’s mercy, love, forgiveness and personal help in all ways, and you shall not receive a stone.\u00a0 Ask to know yourself, your lovability, your nobility of spirit, the beauty of your true being, through His redemptive love of you, and you shall receive it.\u00a0 That is salvation.\u00a0 All that\u2014and more.\u00a0 God’s personalized aspect has brought it about.\u00a0 The incarnated Christ has made it possible for all other incarnated entities to be saved from their painful state of untruth\u2014sin\u2014and consequent destructiveness of self and others.<\/p>\n
Let us now discuss three interdependent aspects of salvation that create a lot of confusion and contradiction among humankind.\u00a0 I am speaking here specifically of the salvation of your personal soul.\u00a0 There are other aspects of salvation which go beyond that.\u00a0 They have to do with the possibility of every created entity leaving behind the state of consciousness that might be called hell\u2014or various lesser stages of it:\u00a0 states of consciousness that reflect error and therefore suffering, the wheel of death and rebirth which carries with it fears due to a break in consciousness.<\/p>\n
Christ’s demonstration of supreme love, forgiveness and mercy\u2014of acceptance due to the deep penetration of His vision into our ultimate nature\u2014opened all doors that were closed before\u2014not because God punished humankind and therefore locked the doors, but because humans were deeply immersed in the conviction that they cannot be forgiven and that they are therefore doomed to suffer eternally.\u00a0 This, in turn, took all the incentive away to work on any process of self-purification.\u00a0 Where there is no hope, will and incentive are also lacking.\u00a0 Through the life and death of Jesus a new modality was created within the human mind.\u00a0 This new model enabled human beings to choose the path the Master has shown.\u00a0 He has said that He is the way, He is truth, He is life.\u00a0 It was no longer futile to try.\u00a0 Forgiveness for all sins, for every transgression exists already, because God recognizes in much deeper terms why you are driven as you are, why you must go through your sins in order to recognize them for what they are, so that a new incentive spurs you on to the great journey you, here on this path, are now undertaking.<\/p>\n
The personal aspect of salvation seems contradictory to the mind that is steeped in the dualism of either\/or.\u00a0 Let me present these three paradoxical aspects:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(1)\u00a0 Only you yourself can effect your salvation.\u00a0 It is your responsibility.<\/p>\n
(2)\u00a0 You cannot possibly do it alone.\u00a0 You need the help of others who share the journey with you, who may often see what you do not see.<\/p>\n
(3)\u00a0 Without God, without the personal assistance of the personal aspect of God, the undertaking is too vast for you to accomplish.<\/p>\n
These three categories may no longer seem contradictory or confusing to those of you who have worked for a considerable time with my lectures about duality and the unitive principle.\u00a0 You may see quite clearly that these categories are not mutually exclusive.\u00a0 Yet some among you may still feel a confusion and ask, “How could it be that although I am solely responsible to do it myself, yet I need others, as well as God?”\u00a0 Even for those who are not particularly confused about this concept of salvation it may be helpful to have more clarity on the subject.<\/p>\n
Yes, it is obviously true that your salvation is your choice, your intent, your responsibility, your will, your effort\u2014and often what seems to be your sacrifice.\u00a0 At least it seems a sacrifice at first to give up time and energy for the undertaking of your self-work.\u00a0 It often seems even more of a sacrifice to shed a habit that stems from your lower self and gives you some lower-self gratifications for a while, so that higher pleasures can take root in you.\u00a0 No one else, not even the Creator, can make you do what you do not wish and choose to do.\u00a0 This would go directly against all spiritual law whose author, after all, God is.<\/p>\n
Yet, you are often too involved in your misperceptions of your reality and too blind about your role in your interaction with others to be able to set distorted perceptions right.\u00a0 You need the mirror of others.\u00a0 You need to learn to be open to them.\u00a0 You need to learn to give up your pretenses, and therefore your defenses, in your relationship with them.\u00a0 You need to show yourself as you are, with all your vulnerability and total inner truth.\u00a0 This in itself is already an integral part of your journey toward self-realization.\u00a0 You need to learn to receive, even though this may first make you feel weak and vulnerable, for only then can you give of yourself.\u00a0 You can give many things before, but you cannot give yourself unless you can receive in the sense I mentioned.<\/p>\n
Working with others, being open to and with them, fulfills the law of brotherhood.\u00a0 I spoke about this many years ago.\u00a0 There are spiritual aspirants who deceive themselves that they can reach the goal by seclusion and separateness.\u00a0 They have their rationales.\u00a0 But the truth is that they never want to expose themselves to others and thus whatever their “success,” it can, at best, be only a half-measure that cannot last, that is not grounded in spiritual, as well as practical, reality.<\/p>\n
How could you ever overcome the hurdle of your self-hate that festers underneath all your defenses, if it were not for the experience of Christ’s personal love, forgiveness, acceptance and total vision of you?\u00a0 How could you learn to love yourself without at least knowing, and finally experiencing, His love for you?\u00a0 How could you activate the power to change involuntary aspects that do not directly respond to your outer will?\u00a0 The outer will and the outer aspects that respond to it need to be aggressively activated by your dedication to your path, by the many daily decisions to face the truth in difficult or confusing situations, by your choice to fulfill the law of brotherhood and overcome your initial resistance to showing yourself as you are.\u00a0 But then comes a point in which you deal with involuntary emotions, responses, reactions and even beliefs that do not respond, no matter how sincerely your outer self wants to change them.\u00a0 So you constantly need the higher powers to help you find the way into those deeper levels and effect a change that your own mind alone cannot bring about.<\/p>\n
All this also teaches you the wisdom to distinguish between where the self is the master and where you desperately need the Great Master without whom nothing can be accomplished.<\/p>\n
My beloved friends, take in these words and make them your own.\u00a0 They will enlighten you and help you toward the state of mind that you so yearn for.\u00a0 They will open new doors that will make a personal experience of Jesus Christ possible for you.\u00a0 Whenever you allow this to happen, all doubts about His reality will vanish.\u00a0 Once you are held in His arms, consoled and encouraged by His sublime tenderness for you personally, rocked with all the comfort only He is capable of giving, you will never doubt again, although you may of course lose the feeling experience and need to recapture it again and again, until your entire consciousness is filled with Him who is in you.<\/p>\n
His blessings, the blessings of His angels are here with all of you.\u00a0 Listen and sense the reality of this blessing.\u00a0 All our love accompanies you every step of your beautiful path.\u00a0 Work for the greater cause.\u00a0 Your own cause that may seem selfish will be furthered through it.\u00a0 Be who you truly are!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
