There IS MORE to Life!

El Morya as Master MORE,
October 26, 2007
Gratitude, my beloved, is a God quality that is closely related
to the Power and the Will of God. For when you know that you are
right with God because you have accepted God's Will – not as the
will of an angry being in the sky, but the
will of your own Higher Being – well then you will naturally
feel a deep sense of gratitude. For you will know that the
universe as a whole is unfolding and evolving in close accord
with the Will of God. And you will know that, as you stay in
Oneness with that higher will of your being, whatever happens on
Earth is within the Will of God, and thus you can meet whatever
happens with gratitude. Gratitude for the opportunity to learn,
but even more so, gratitude for the opportunity to transcend, to
go beyond.
For, my beloved, if there is one thing I would impress upon you,
one thought that represents what is the Will of God for planet
Earth at this moment in history, then it is indeed
self-transcendence. And more certainly, this is the Will of God
for this nation of England, of Britain and of the British Isles.
The self-transcendence that will blow away, like a mighty storm
rolling in from the Atlantic, the gloom and doom of the
consciousness that you are all well aware of and that you have
discussed and addressed in
this rosary.
So, my beloved, this is the Will of God—that Britain does indeed
become a Golden Age society, an example for how a Golden Age
society can be built. Not by the high and the mighty, not by the
elite, not by the establishment. But by the true elite, the most
spiritually aware people, being the forerunners for awakening
the people themselves, so that a critical mass is reached where
the people are willing to take responsibility for themselves and
say: “We will stop complaining about what is, and we will change
what is, for we know that we have the power of consciousness to
do this.”
And so, my beloved, where does this recognition come from? Well,
it does indeed come from the recognition of how the universe
works—that the universe, the material universe, is a mirror that
can only reflect back to an individual or an entire nation, what
they are sending out through the power of their minds. For you
see, my beloved, the greatest lie perpetrated upon the people on
Earth is that the things that are physical are set in stone and
cannot be changed by humankind.
This has taken on many forms, including what we expose in this
rosary of the false trinity of the monarchy, the class system
and the church, which denies the individual Christ potential of
its own members, even its own leaders. So, my beloved, when you
recognize this, you recognize that the people have come to
believe in this lie. But more than this, they have come to
believe in it because it has become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
It seems to them that they cannot change anything because
whenever they try to change something in the outer – be it
through their own efforts or their government – they see that
there is no real change. There might be some gradual changes
here and there, but there is not the real revolution in society
that they know from within is possible. And so that is why the
people feel powerless.
But the key to overcoming this sense of having no power is the
realization that we have given, namely that the universe will
reflect back what you send out. And therefore, the key to
changing a society is not to change the rulers. It is
not even to overthrow the elite through violent means, as was
done in France and has been done and attempted to be done here
in Britain on many occasions. No my beloved, the real key to
changing a nation is to change the consciousness of the people.
And that change must begin somewhere—with some individual.
Revolution must come from the people
For, my beloved, you will not wake up one morning and see the
London Times have a big headline about the possibility of
changing society by changing people's individual consciousness.
For surely, the establishment, the government and all aspects of
society are more rigid and less fluid than the people
themselves. That is why true revolution must come from below.
It has always been so, my beloved. For you will see that the
greatest revolutionary in the Western world was Jesus himself,
who brought forth a teaching that was completely revolutionary
compared to what the people believed in Israel at the time of
his appearance there. And so who were the people who accepted
Jesus? Was it the temple priests and the scribes and the
Pharisees? No, my beloved. For those who are in charge of the
current system have always entered an unholy alliance of being
those who first and foremost want to preserve that system. For
they want to preserve their positions of privilege and power.
And so it is always among the people that you have to look for
those who have eyes to see and ears to hear a new revolutionary
idea.
And thus, my beloved, it is exactly the same today. You look
back at Jesus' life and you look at how few people he contacted
in his lifetime. Yet you see the changes that have come about in
Western society as a result of the ideas he brought forth. You
could look at the end of his lifetime and say he accomplished
little in the physical. But he did indeed accomplish what he
came to accomplish, which was to start the process of changing
people's consciousness.
Now my beloved, in today's world we have a very different
situation than the one faced by Jesus, and there are two main
reasons for this. Number One is that in the Piscean age, it was
necessary that there was only one person who was the
representative of Christ on Earth. For the consciousness of the
people was so low that there were not very many people on Earth
at that time who could manifest and demonstrate personal
Christhood. That has changed, my beloved, for over the past
2,000 years, many, many people – including all of you here –
have volunteered to embody specifically to build your Christhood
and build that Christhood at the present time, where it was the
plan and the Will of God that many people should step forward
and demonstrate that Christhood.
So there are indeed many people in embodiment who are very, very
close to manifesting and expressing their Christhood. Some are
doing so without knowing it, without having the words to put on
what they are doing. But others just need that little bit of an
awakening, as some of you have expressed here that when you find
a teaching that rings true in your heart, then you know it and
you feel that you have come home.
Well, my beloved, the other condition that is different today,
compared to Jesus' time, is of course the means of communication
that are so much better today. And this means that there is a
potential that when the people who are ready to manifest
Christhood step forward and do so, they can communicate their
ideas, they can express their Christhood in a way that can
spread much further than what you saw in Jesus' lifetime.
Indeed, you also have the added advantage that those who express
their Christhood in this age will not be nailed to the cross
after three years and thus be taken off the Earth. You can stay
here as the representatives of the Living Christ for the rest of
your natural life-span. Some of you even beyond the life-span
that would be natural if you did not express your Christhood.
What is unreal has no power over what is real
And so, my beloved, despite the fact that you feel the weight of
the mass consciousness, that you feel the inertia of the mass
consciousness, that you feel the opposition both from the mass
consciousness of the people and the elite – who will use all
means available to them to stop a revolutionary change in
Britain and elsewhere – well, despite you feeling this weight, I
must tell you that it is all unreality. For you see, my beloved,
the basic truth about life is that that which is unreal has no
power over that which is real.
And so the only thing that is required is a change in
consciousness, where you realize you have the spark of reality,
the spark of divinity, within your being. You can connect to it
and when you do, you will know that no matter what they do to
you in the physical, they have no power over you. Was that not
what you saw in Jesus? Where despite the fact that they
mistreated him, tortured him and nailed him to a cross, they had
no real power over him. They could not stop his Oneness with
God.
Thus, my beloved, the Will of God is that the people are
awakened to the fact – as some of you here have already said –
that so much in their present society is based on unreality. Not
only in Britain, of course, but in every nation on Earth. But
given where we are, let us take a look at British society. Is
there indeed anything that is real?
Well, there are indeed many things that are real in British
society, but often that which is real has been cleverly mixed in
with that which is unreal, to the point where it has formed a
new construct where the seeds of reality are like diamonds that
have been embedded in the lead of unreality. And thus, people
either cannot tell the difference or they think that the
diamonds of reality – that they see sparkle – must of necessity
be embedded in the lead of unreality. And thus they feel it is
hopeless to separate the two.
But you see, my beloved, nothing is hopeless—nothing whatsoever.
Nothing is hopeless for those who are willing to change
themselves, and all of you are willing to change yourselves or
you would not be here right now. And I must assure you that even
though you sometimes feel alone, there are millions more who are
also willing to change. They just have not yet made that
conscious contact with their own inner being, with the higher
reality within themselves, that you have made. And that is why
they could use examples and teachers who are not afraid to stand
up and express that there is a higher reality, that there is
such a thing as reality beyond the unreality of duality, where
everything is so mixed in that you cannot tell the difference.
Or that you think one cannot exist without the other, for you
think that the diamonds form one polarity and they must have an
opposite polarity which is the unreality. So you think the two
are in a dualistic relationship.
Yet the real essence of the message of Christ is that there is a
fundamental difference between God reality and the dualistic
"reality” that is in a polarity with unreality. There is
something beyond, my beloved, and that something is the reality
in your own Being that Jesus described as the key of knowledge.
Why "the key?" Because it is the key that gives you access to
the kingdom within you. And thus, when more people are alerted
to the reality that the kingdom is within them – and they are
willing to look for that kingdom in themselves – well then you
will see a change in the individuals. And as more and more
individuals are awakened to this, you will begin to see a
cumulative effect spread through the collective consciousness.
The collective consciousness is easy to change
For you see, my beloved, the collective consciousness might seem
to be very rigid and inflexible, but this is in reality an
illusion. The collective consciousness is very soft and very
pliable and it will naturally gravitate or be pulled in any
direction, where a strong enough force exerts a pull on it. And
what you see right now is that for a very long time, the
collective consciousness of Britain has been pulled downward by
the false trinity of the very consciousness that is still
represented by the monarchy, the class system and the Church of
England.
And this has been happening for so long that the people think
this is the only force that they recognize. And that is why the
collective consciousness seems to be rigid. But I tell you that
the moment another force emerges and gains critical mass, well,
instantly you will see the mass consciousness be shifted and
pulled towards the stronger force.
My beloved, look at the iron filings that you spread out on a
piece of paper, and look at it as a representation of the mass
consciousness. Now you put a magnet on one side underneath the
paper, and gradually the iron filings will start being pulled
towards the magnet. Some will be pulled directly to the magnet,
others will be aligned to the magnetic field itself. Yet now
take a stronger magnet on the opposite side of the paper, and,
my beloved, is there some magic force that will keep the iron
filings at the weaker magnet?
No, my beloved, they will immediately shift towards the stronger
force. And so it is with the mass consciousness. Because the
mass consciousness really has no will of its own. That is why,
as you have discussed, it feels as if the people do not want to
change. They want to just complain about those who oppress them.
They do not want to take responsibility for themselves and their
nation. Well, does that not show you that these people are
simply so overwhelmed by the mass consciousness that they have
surrendered their individual wills to the mass consciousness?
And you might think that the mass consciousness has some kind of
will, but it really is not so. It has inertia, but the mass
consciousness should not be confused with an actual non-physical
entity such as a
demon, a discarnate, a mass entity or a
fallen being. For my beloved, the mass consciousness has
very little sense of individual existence and thus has very
little will power. It is always pulled in the direction of a
will that is stronger than its own.
And so, really, the reality that I want to impress upon you is
that the people themselves are not actually resisting a change
in consciousness, a change in society. They are simply
gravitating towards the strongest force that pulls upon them.
And when the spiritual people, the top 10 percent of the most
spiritually aware people, have enough of a united vision that
they can exert a force that is stronger than the united – and in
many cases not so united – vision of the lowest 10 percent, well
then – instantly – the people will start shifting. It can be no
other way, my beloved.
This, then, should give you great hope, for some of you earlier
expressed the sense that even though you are spiritual people,
you feel hopeless to change the consciousness of the population
at large, because they seem so stuck in the old patterns. But
you see, my beloved, what is it that you see in the people? Is
it not that they are not willing to take responsibility and
start with themselves? Well, my beloved, will you not then look
in the mirror and see that many of you still have a remnant of
that consciousness in your own Being, where you feel like you
want to make an effort, you want to play a part in bringing
forth a better society and a Golden Age, but you still think
that the bringing forth of that Golden Age depends on how other
people respond rather than how YOU respond?
And you see, my beloved, that is the lie, the lie that is
embedded in the mass consciousness; that someone else must make
the decision; someone else must do it for us; Jesus must come
and save us; the king must rule the nation; the church must tell
us what to believe about God; the government and the ruling
elite must take care of all practical matters in society, for it
is too complicated for us to understand and deal with.
And so, my beloved, I am not here trying to make you feel
guilty. I am simply trying to give you the realistic assessment
that part of being the forerunners for a shift in consciousness
is that you have all volunteered to take on certain facets of
the mass consciousness—and transmute them in your own Being. And
when you do so, you will make the best contribution you can make
to producing a shift in the collective consciousness.
Christhood depends on nothing outside yourself
Therefore, let go of the sense of hopelessness! Let go of the
sense that your Christhood depends on other people or
institutions in society. For, my beloved, the reality
demonstrated by Jesus is that individual Christhood depends on
nothing outside the individual.
Look at Jesus. At one point or another almost everyone around
him questioned the sanity of what he was doing—even his mother,
who had a very high vision that he had a special mission to
fulfill. So did his brothers, so did his disciples from time to
time, almost all of them failing to see the greater vision. Yet
Jesus withstood the onslaught of all of them – the people, the
Scribes and the Pharisees, the high and the mighty as well as
the low who pulled upon him to be their king and throw out the
Roman occupiers – he withstood all of them and manifested his
Christhood anyway.
Of course, this cannot happen, my beloved, unless you are
willing to look at the ego and overcome that ego. Because
otherwise it will be inevitable that your ego will pull you into
a false “Christhood,” an imitation of Christhood, that makes
some people think that they are the saviors, that they are the
wise ones who know best how things should be done, and thus they
are the saviors of the people. This is what you saw in Peter,
where he would argue with Jesus and tell him how he should
conduct his mission. This is indeed the consciousness, my
beloved, that started with Peter, was institutionalized by the
Catholic Church and was directly responsible for the emergence
of the period called “the Dark Ages” in Europe.
Understanding the Dark Ages in Europe
For what happened in the Dark Ages was that people's individual
creativity was squashed, to the point where few people dared to
stand out and bring forth an individual contribution and new
ideas in art, literature, philosophy, religion or inventions of
a practical nature. And, my beloved, see how this very
consciousness created the idea that people can be divided into
two separate categories—some who are above the population, who
form an elite.
Jesus might be at the top but was there not always a church
hierarchy of the false preachers, the wolves in sheep's clothing
that Jesus warned his followers about but that they did not
heed? And therefore, those wolves took over the Christian church
and turned it into an institution that suppresses the people and
makes them the blind followers of the elite—who are themselves
the blind followers of their egos and the non-material forces
beyond who are ruling their egos.
And so throughout the dark ages this consciousness spread
throughout Europe. And I can tell you that if you look at how
the plague, the Black Death, spread throughout Europe, I can
assure you that at higher levels there was a similar spreading
of the black cloud of this consciousness that the people are
inadequate—that they do not have a divine spark and a Christ
potential. That they cannot rule themselves and bring forth
something unique from within themselves, but that they must
always look for someone else to do it for them. This is, then,
what gave rise to a monarchy based on the incredible illusion
that it was appointed by God to rule the people, to rule its own
people, and that the people were actually given to the monarchy
by God as its slaves, as its subjects, and that the monarchy
could do whatever it wanted.
For you see, my beloved, the Catholic Church had already given
up the willingness to tune in to the higher Will of God, thereby
institutionalizing the dualistic will of man, the dualistic will
of the ego, as the ultimate authority in society. And so it was
just a matter of time before the monarchy fell into the same
trap of thinking that it was the ultimate authority in society.
And then you saw the ultimate power struggle between the
monarchy and the church. And this is what
Saint Germain has already described previously in our series
about restoring the Word—that the church and the church
hierarchy formed the established power elite, and the monarchy
and noble class who owned the land formed the aspiring power
elite. And the power struggle between them went on for some
time, but then finally had the “resolution” that the British
monarch now declared himself the head of the Church of England,
thus bringing all three into a certain unified state, where now
the perverted trinity of Father, Mother, Son was complete.
And that is indeed, my beloved, why you see – as some of you
have already seen – that the British people are indeed very
downtrodden, more so than many other nations. Although I will
tell you that there are other nations on this planet, where the
people are even more downtrodden than what you see in Britain.
For my beloved, why am I standing here speaking these words in
Britain? It is because I know that the British people have the
potential to shake this off, to rise above this consciousness
and indeed bring forth a Golden Age civilization in this nation.
Yet, my beloved, for this to happen I must tell you that the
British people must be willing to do what Saint Germain said at
our last conference in California—question
everything! Everything, my beloved.
The missing link in history
For what is it that the elite has done to suppress the people?
Yes, you will look back at history and say that the king had
some real physical power and he used it ruthlessly.
Nevertheless, let me tell you that there never has been a regime
on this planet – be it the British monarchy, or the Communist
Party in the Soviet Union, or the emperors of Rome – there never
has been a regime that had enough physical power to suppress the
people with physical power alone. For had the people come
together at a critical mass and stood up against that physical
power, then the powers would have fallen. And this you have seen
in a number of nations around the world.
So therefore, physical power is not enough to suppress the
people. And that is indeed the missing link in history, where
historians tend to look back, and they look only at the material
circumstances, thinking that the cause of everything that
happened in the world must be found in the material realm. But I
tell you that the cause of everything that happened in the
material realm is found in the consciousness of the people, the
collective consciousness. And thus, my beloved, I tell you –
truly – what they have used to suppress the people is the Word,
the perversion of the Word of God.
The Word of God is the consciousness of Christ that allows you –
as I started out this discourse talking about – that allows you
to discern between what is real and what is unreal. And so, in
order to suppress the people, they must take away that key of
knowledge. They must create this false reality, where they have
now created two dualistic polarities that seem to be inseparably
linked in a dualistic struggle for supremacy. Yet both of them
are lies.
And so this, my beloved, is one realization that needs to be
brought out at this time in Britain and elsewhere, for it is the
essential realization that must be spread before a Golden Age
can dawn—namely the whole nature of duality. And this, my
beloved, is of course why we of the Ascended Host have brought
forth the new book,
The Art of Non-War, which is written in a way that is
more universal than any other book we have brought forth through
any dispensation whatsoever. Thus, it has a potential to reach
the people and awaken them to the basic dynamic of the duality
consciousness and how it prevents them from discerning what is
real and what is unreal. So every action they take, every idea
they believe in, does not really lead to change because it
merely perpetuates the dualistic struggle which is the very root
of their suffering and their limitations.
But that dualistic struggle starts in the consciousness, for the
elite themselves could not perpetuate the dualistic struggle
unless the people responded. And that is why you see the unholy
alliance between those in the power elite who want power, and
those among the people who do not want power but want to give
away their power and have other people make decisions for them.
So that they do not have to face the potential of making wrong
choices, but can criticize those who make choices no matter what
choices they make. And yet even this can shift almost as in the
blinking of an eye. And it will shift when enough of the top 10
percent process that state of consciousness in their own beings
and overcome it once and for all.
Overcoming possesion
And so, my beloved, what is the key to overcoming this
consciousness in your own being? Well, my beloved, there are
some of you here that are aware of the potential that people can
be possessed by a force that is outside themselves. This might
be something you call a demon, an entity, a discarnate soul or
whatever you want to call it, my beloved. The essence of such
possession is that something enters your container of self, your
four lower bodies, and once inside it starts to rule the
roost and cause the
Conscious You to withdraw and say: “I can no longer be in
command of myself,” or perhaps it doesn"t even say that, but
without realizing it, it gives away its power.
And so, my beloved, what is the key to overcoming this? For I am
sure you can see that in a sense, everyone who grows up on Earth
is possessed by something from outside themselves. For have I
not said – and do not many of you know – that you have taken on
elements of the mass consciousness. And the mass consciousness
is also an alien energy that enters your energy field and now
begins to pull on your thoughts and emotions and your sense of
self.
So, my beloved, we have given you the image of the figure eight
flow. And the upper figure of the figure eight represents the
spiritual realm, and the lower figure, the material realm. So,
my beloved, what is in the upper figure of the figure eight of
your own being?
[Audience answers: "Your I AM Presence"]
Your
I AM Presence is in the upper figure, and in the lower
figure is your four lower bodies, your container of self, your
soul, whatever you want to call it.
But, my beloved, what is supposed to be in the center, in the
nexus of the figure eight? Your conscious self, as we have
called it. It can be called other names for it truly does not
matter. But what I want to point out to you is this. For any
outside force to enter your lower being, there must be room for
that force to enter. There must be a division in your being. For
if there was no division, nothing could enter.
Do you see, my beloved, your I AM Presence is one, is one with
its source, your Creator. So nothing from the Earth can enter
your I AM Presence because it is undivided. There is no space,
no opening, for any lower vibration to enter. Yet in your lower
being – once you have become a house divided against itself by
believing in the dualistic lies – then there is room for outside
forces, ideas and energies to enter. But you see, my beloved,
there is only room because your conscious self has not taken
responsibility for itself, for your lower being. It has not
taken the responsibility to be the Christ in your being, and
therefore be the mediator between your I AM Presence and your
lower being. For when your conscious self occupies that position
in the centre, in the nexus, then you will be as above so below.
You can be here below all that you are above. And thus there
will be no division below, as there is no division above.—and
nothing alien can enter.
Well, what is the key, then, to overcoming the division? You
see, my beloved, you have been divided because you came to
believe in a
dualistic lie. And there are innumerable dualistic lies—so
many that we could not possibly expose them all. But they all
spring from the one lie, which is the essential lie, that there
can be a division in infinity; that the Infinite can be divided
into parts, where one part is separated from the whole and
therefore one part is separated from another part.
And this lie comes in as soon as your conscious self descends
below the nexus of the figure eight. You see, my beloved, at any
point below the nexus, there is distance. Now, distance does not
necessarily mean division, for it is indeed possible – as you
have talked about earlier – that the Father and the Mother can
be united in a true polarity of Alpha and Omega, Yin and Yang.
It is only when the two become opposites through the dualistic
mind that you have division. So it is quite possible to have the
distance that you see in this realm of time and space without
there being division, for there is still Oneness. But where must
the Oneness come from? It must come from your conscious self
occupying its rightful position in the nexus. Not by being down
here [points to lower half of figure eight] and identifying
itself with any lower self-concept, any divided concept of self.
And, my beloved, the idea I wish you to ponder is this. In
mathematics you have the concept – well you have two important
concepts – one is the symbol for infinity which is the figure
eight, but you also have the concept of a single point, or a
singularity as it is called. Well, my beloved, the singularity
is a point that has no extension in space. What does that mean,
my beloved? It means it is beyond space, for space implies
extension, which means that there is more than one point—there
is distance. And this is when you can have two points which are
now separated by a distance.
But you see, my beloved, your conscious self is what gives you
self-awareness, but listen carefully now. Your conscious self is
an extension of the Being of the Creator. But here comes the
mystery for you to ponder. Your conscious self is pure
awareness. It does not have a sense of identity as being this or
that. It simply IS, my beloved.
You see, you have had – for many years – the concept of the I AM
and the I AM Presence. And listen carefully—this is a perfectly
valid concept that we have given you for a reason. For we know
that once you have descended into duality – and have accepted a
sense of identity as being separated from your source – well,
you cannot in one jump overcome that sense of separation. So we
have given you the concept that you have a spiritual identity
that is anchored in the spiritual realm—and thus cannot be
destroyed or distorted by any false identity you have taken on
in the lower part of your being in the material realm.
And this is indeed to take the awareness of the conscious self
and redirect it from feeling that it is centered down here [in
the lower part of the figure eight] and gradually bringing
itself closer and closer to this nexus point.
But you see, my beloved, when your conscious self ascends to the
nexus, it does not disappear. But the sense that it is separated
from the Allness of the Creator, from the Infinite, that
sense of separation disappears. For that separate sense of self
is what dies and what Jesus talked about when he said: “He who
seeks to save his life shall lose it. But he who is willing to
lose his life for my sake shall find it.”
And so even the concept of the I AM is a concept that – although
valid at a certain level of consciousness – needs to be
transcended in order for you to go beyond a certain point on the
spiritual path. For do you see, my beloved, that there is the
"I" and there is the "AM." And do you see that right there,
there is a distance, which is what implies the potential for a
division. For you see the "I" that is the mediator between your
higher and lower being, can come to say: “I AM not this up here,
expressing itself through this below—no, I AM something down
here, defined as being separate from what is above.”
And this is where division creeps into your being. So the only
solution to this, my beloved, is that your conscious self, which
is the "I," comes to realize that the "AM" is only a tool that
it is temporarily using to express itself in the material world.
But the "I" begins to realize that rather than being that lower
identity, it is MORE than that lower identity.
For do you see, my beloved, the letter "I" is a single line, and
again in mathematics, a line has no extension in width. So you
see now that there is no division, no horizontal division, in a
line. So when your conscious self realizes that it is not this
or that, it stops saying "I AM this' or "I AM that" in the
world, but it actually comes to say "I."
You see, my beloved, the concept of an I AM Presence is useful,
but if you begin to think that you are the I AM Presence, well,
even that is a slightly dualistic concept because you might see
a division between the "I" and the "I AM Presence." But what you
need to come to is the point where you are just the "I" and you
know that that "I" is One with the All, with the infinity of
God. For the "I" is not a finite being. My beloved, the "AM"
here below is a finite being but the "I" is not.
Now listen carefully. Even the I AM Presence is a finite being,
not in the material realm, but in the spiritual realm which is
also part of the world of form. And, my beloved, how is the
world of form created? Well, it is created out of the Creator's
Being. But it is created because the One Creator, the infinite
Being of the Creator, expressed itself as the two polarities of
Alpha and Omega.
For you see, my beloved, the world of form has form, does it
not? And you see on planet Earth many forms that are separate
from other forms because they are defined by their differences.
If there were no differences, there would be no expressed forms.
All would still be the unexpressed Oneness of the Creator. So
the Creator must divide itself into the two polarities. And yet
those polarities are ultimately – although they are expressions
of the Creator's Being – they are finite. For they have
extension, differences.
Again, differences and distance does not mean division, for
nothing in the spiritual realm is divided. But it still has
extension in what we might call spiritual space—not to be
confused with physical space. And so, my beloved, people are so
conditioned to thinking in terms of the world of form and
differences. And in order to raise them up to a higher state of
consciousness, they had to be given certain concepts that they
could understand with their minds—as they were in a very divided
state when, for example, Genesis was released on this planet.
Understanding the name of God
So now you have the concept of Moses going to the mount
and communing with God, or rather with a representative of God.
And Moses knows that the people will not accept him unless he
gives them something concrete that they can use to picture this
God that he met on the mountain. So he asks God to give him a
name. And God uses the name I AM or I AM THAT I AM, but you see
– as we have said before – this is not really a name. It is a
riddle, a Zen koan, my beloved, that you can contemplate. And
you see that even the concept of I AM THAT I AM is a concept
that is adapted to the consciousness of the people in a
dualistic state.
What is really being said here? I AM THAT I AM is implying that
at any moment I AM Being whatever I want to Be. And thus, when
you understand the reality here, you understand that God is
really saying: “I am not a static God. I am not a dead God. I am
not a graven image. And no matter what graven image you create
on Earth, you cannot fit me into that mental box. For your
mental box must be finite, but I AM infinite.”
And so what God was really saying is that at any moment in time,
I will be what I AM. And you all know that the more correct
translation of the original text is: I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE.
Yet the consciousness of I AM THAT I AM is valid, because we
have given you the model of the upper and the lower and that the
lower being needs to come into alignment with the upper. And how
do you do that?
You do that by realizing that up here [in the higher part of the
figure eight] is the I AM THAT I AM, and down here [in the lower
part] is your sense of identity, your sense of I AM—I AM this, I
AM that.
And what you need to do is to come to a point where you can say:
“I am THAT I am, up there.”
That, however, is not the end of your spiritual growth. It is,
rather, the beginning of the true spiritual path, where you
realize that there is more to your identity than can be defined
in the material realm.
And so you need to reach beyond the material realm. And indeed,
you have something to reach for, you have something to unite
with, where your sense of identity down here can become One or
identified with the Being up here, so you know “I AM here below
all that I AM above, for I am THAT I AM.”
Yet there is a higher level, and this is what we have brought
forth in the teachings on IS. For as I said earlier, your
conscious self is not the I AM down here [the lower part of the
figure-eight], but neither is your conscious self the I AM up
here [the upper part]. Your conscious self is a state of pure
awareness that can never be identified with anything in the
finite world. And even your I AM Presence is in the finite
world.
So when you truly attain enlightenment, Christhood, Buddhahood,
Oneness with God, whatever you want to call it, well then the
"I" of your conscious self stops identifying itself as this or
this. Well, what does it identify itself as?
Well, my beloved, it identifies itself as the All. And this is
when you have the symbol of the "s' around the "I", which
symbolizes the figure eight, where your "I" is in the center,
but it really is no longer in the center, for it realizes that
the mathematical symbol of infinity drawn as a figure eight—yes
it is has a single point in the centre, but the entire periphery
of the figure eight is made up of single points.
And
really, my beloved, when you realize that a single point has no
extension in space, then you can realize that a single point is
not really a point. For if there is no extension in finite
space, how can you say that here is a single point that is
separated from the Infinite? For if it was separate, it had to
be in the realm of the finite world and thus it had to have
extension in space.
And so you realize that the single "I" is everything at once.
And that is when you will know what Jesus said: “And the king
shall say, inasmuch as ye have done it to the least of these my
brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
[You will also know what Jesus meant when he said that when your
"eye" or your "I" is single, your whole body is full of light.]
Loving God with ALL your heart, mind and soul
That is when you can fulfill the requirement that Jesus gave as
the absolute requirement for Christhood. For when he was asked
by the Scribes and Pharisees about the greatest points of the
law he said: “To love god with all your heart, soul and mind.”
Because, my beloved, how can you love God with all your heart,
soul and mind? Well, you can only do it when you realize that
you ARE God, that there is no longer separation. For if you see
a separation between yourself and God, you simply cannot love
God with ALL your heart, mind and soul. It is not possible.
So then you have fulfilled the Alpha aspect of the equation of
Christhood. But the Omega aspect is to love your neighbor as
yourself. But how can you do that, my beloved? Only when you see
your neighbor AS yourself, as your greater Self. For if you see
a distance between yourself and your neighbor, you are not truly
loving your neighbor AS yourself. And you are not truly loving
yourself if you are seeing a distance between yourself and the
Creator. For only in Oneness with your Creator, will you
experience the fullness of God's love, which is an infinite,
unconditional love.
And so, there is always a higher teaching that can be released.
And what you will see, my beloved, is that there are always
those who will cling to the old, for they have taken the old
teaching and put it in a mental box, and now they are
comfortable. Well, who is comfortable, my beloved? Only the ego
can be comfortable with any mental box in the finite world. For
the "I" can never be fully comfortable until it is one with
infinity.
And so you always see that those who want to stay with the old,
who want to stay where they are comfortable, are still blinded
by their egos no matter what they might think. No matter what
clever, intellectual arguments they might come up with, they are
still blinded by their egos, for they have not truly been
willing to look for the beam in their own eye, even though they
have a
teaching that talks about the ego and the need to look for
it.
It is entirely possible to understand that teaching only with
the outer intellectual, analytical mind, and therefore take the
teaching and turn it into a mental box that gives the ego that
sense of security because it feels it has even the spiritual
path under control—even Christhood, it has under control. And
that is precisely what you saw Peter attempting to do with
Jesus.
Peter recognized that Jesus was beyond a normal person but he
was not willing to follow Jesus and attain Oneness with the
Living Christ. He wanted – until the very end – to put the
Living Christ in his own mental box. And even though he let the
Living Christ expand his mental box that little bit, he would
not take that final step of throwing away the mental box by
letting the mortal self die and being spiritually reborn—being
born of water and of Spirit.
What does it mean to be reborn of water and of Spirit? Well,
several things. But one certainly is that being born of water is
that you come the understanding with the mind that you actually
need to surrender the lower self. For in coming to that
understanding the "I" of the conscious self can then separate
itself from the mortal self because it realizes that if the
mortal self dies, the "I" will not die. It will be reborn into
its true identity as One with the All.
And when, my beloved, you give up that finite identity and merge
into the infinite identity, then you are not an "I" located in
the nexus, thinking “I am this, and I must express that down
here.” Because there is no distance. You are everywhere, above
and below. And so you are just letting the I AM Presence flow
through your nexus into the four lower bodies and express itself
through those four lower bodies without the "I," the conscious
self, having to think about this or even feel that something
from outside of me up there is flowing through me here and
expressing itself down there. Because it has stopped thinking
that "I AM here and only here." It knows it is everywhere in the
consciousness of God.
And that is when the "I" becomes the "Is' for now the energies,
the ideas, the reality from the spiritual realm can flow through
you into the material realm.
But not only flow through you, but also be expressed by you
because you are now fully conscious of everything you do. And in
every situation you are not thinking: “Oh, I don"t want to be in
this situation, I wish it was over.” You are simply there with
the Allness of who you are, expressing that, and thereby
transcending and transforming the situation so that other people
are raised up. And so that the you have mastery over the
material realm. And so the matter light is raised up, is freed
from the imperfect matrices that have been put upon it through
the duality consciousness. It can be instantly set free, whereby
the water is turned into wine, the dead are raised, the sick are
healed.
This is what you saw in Jesus. Jesus had united, he had become
the IS and that is why God could manifest these so-called
miracles through him—that are not miracles, they are simply the
natural state of the Ma-ter light expressing the reality of the
Father, rather than the unreality of the duality consciousness.
And as I said with the mass consciousness that can be pulled
here and there, the matter light has volunteered to express any
form that God's co-creators impose upon it.
But this does not mean, my beloved, that the matter light has no
consciousness. It does not mean that the matter light enjoys
taking on the negative forms that you saw in the movie of
violence, and images that are not in harmony with the higher
principles. The mother light would at any moment gladly shake
this off and instead instantly manifest the higher reality of
God.
Change is always possible
So again, nothing is hopeless. Change is possible. That, my
beloved, is what the power elite do not want you to believe, and
they especially do not want the people to believe it. They want
them to believe that status quo cannot be changed, or certainly
cannot be changed beyond certain boundaries. And this, my
beloved, is the lie that Jesus challenged and that we need those
in physical embodiment who are also willing to challenge.
And this implies many things. You do not always have to come out
strongly and give a teaching like I have given today, which
surely, as they say, will blow many people away, as I know some
of you are holding onto your seats here.
[Audience laughs]
Nevertheless, there are many more gentle ways to awaken people
to the fact that change is always possible. Look at history, my
beloved. Look at how much society has changed in a thousand
years. Think back—go to one of the museums you have in Britain
and elsewhere, and see how people lived in the Stone Age. And
then see how you live today, only a few thousand years later.
And then see how much has happened just within the last century,
just within your lifetime. How computer technology has
transformed society.
For, my beloved, should not a realistic assessment make you see
that change is indeed possible? And that change can have many
levels? And is it not possible to help people see that the
reason why society is at a higher level today than in the Stone
Age is that there has been an expansion in consciousness, and
that it is the expansion in consciousness that drives all
progress?
And then, my beloved, it is not that difficult to make people
see that because the expansion of consciousness has become
one-sided in the West, where people have forgotten spirituality
– partly because of the perversions of Christianity that took
Jesus' true teachings away from the people, and then because of
the consciousness of materialism – well then, people have become
unbalanced and that is why you have a one-sided progress. Where
you have technological progress – as Jesus recently explained in
the answer to a question LINK – and the technological progress
itself creates problems which people cannot solve because they
do not have the corresponding expansion in their spiritual
awareness. My beloved, this is not, as they say, rocket science.
It is possible to make many, many people understand these
concepts, when you make them your own and express them in your
own words.
And so, my beloved, I have spoken for a long time, which shows
you that I have had a great desire to once again be able to
speak freely on this island of Britain. Having spent several
lifetimes here;* having been willing to make the ultimate
sacrifice in order to awaken the British people to a higher way,
to higher principles. I have a very strong desire to see these
people become awakened to their true potential for expressing a
Golden Age in this nation.
El Morya is no more
And so I have more to say, but that will follow in the days
ahead. For now I want to give one last announcement. For you
see, my beloved, the Ascended Masters do not stand still. But we
know that a certain percentage among our students like to stand
still and take our teachings and turn them into a mental box.
And in order to avoid this, we sometimes shake things up a bit.
So, I will now give you another seeming mystery. For even though
I say I have much more to say in this nation, this is indeed the
last time that El Morya will speak on this planet through any
messenger whatsoever.
For as of this very moment, El Morya and Master M are no
more, for I AM MORE.
And thus, from now on I will express myself only as the Master
MORE, for that is a more accurate reflection of who I AM.
And I desire you to know the fullness of who I am and not a
limited image that was very much adapted to the collective
consciousness of a century ago, or even a decade ago. For it has
now been 10 years since I said I could no longer sponsor a
previous dispensation. And although some who call themselves the
chelas of El Morya have barely transcended themselves in those
10 years, well, I have exercised my free will to transcend
myself over and over again. So I am indeed much more, and this
is what I desire to express to those who are willing to throw
away their mental box of El Morya and come with me into the
infinite Being that I AM—that they might discover the Infinite
in themselves and that we may be One in infinity instead of some
false concept of Oneness that is still based on the
consciousness of distance.
For there can be no true Oneness when there is distance. So if
you want to know me, you must become all that I AM. And I am
willing to impart all that I AM to anyone who is willing to let
go of the lesser self and become THAT I am. And then
become the "I" that is the "IS." For when you become the IS,
then it is indeed possible that the Ascended Master MORE might
flow through you at any moment, into any situation, in order to
set someone free from the illusion of less.
My beloved, I thank you for your kind attention, for your
willingness to be here in the critical number we needed in order
to have the maximum flow between us and the British people, and
beyond that to the people of Europe.
For as I have been speaking, much has been happening at inner
levels and I can assure you that the vision earlier of angels**
through your song, well, there have been myriad angels working
at higher levels to send energy through your four lower bodies,
to anchor it in the material realm.
Thus, a great change has begun, and I trust you will all be open
to continuing this in the coming days so that we might see what
can be achieved, when we come together in the flow that IS God.
* The ascended master El Morya was embodied as
Thomas Becket and Thomas More, both of whom took a stand against
the English king and paid with their lives.
**Before the dictation, the participants had sung a song that
was the result of a co-operative effort of putting new,
Aquarian-age, words to Battle Hymn of the Republic. One
participants had a vision of myriad angels descending during the
song and carrying the light released through the song to the
spiritual realm, returning it to Earth multiplied.

Not
every Western initiation has aims within all four groups.
For example, the Masonic Entered Apprentice degree does not
have any magical aims, and the transpersonal aims originally
contained within it appear to have atrophied in many
contemporary lodges.
The
personal and transpersonal aims within the Neophyte ceremony
are achieved through (1) the injection of magical currents
into the subtle bodies of the initiate, and (2) processes
designed to effect and transform the consciousness and
subtle bodies themselves. In the absence of any traditional
term I call these processes,
templates of
transformation.
