Spiritual Ascension and Awakening
The Path of the Masters
Physical death is at best a temporary reprieve
-from- the human condition, that is, until the soul is compelled to
complete its unfinished "karmic" business and reincarnate into yet
another body. If the soul desires liberation from this eternal cycle,
it must do so -within- the human condition through a process called
"Ascension".
Over many eons of incarnations within a varied
assortment of bodily shells, we have made innumerable journeys through
many alternate realities, dimensions, worlds, even other universes...
before finding ourselves here now on this earthly plane. And after
leaving this life, the journey continues as we find ourselves
reincarnating again and again into more spaces, places, and various
bodies, on and on. In an eternity of existence, the possibilities are
endless and the drama that is the "wheel of life" turns round and
round. Yet, through all our journeys there lies within our heart
a constant yearning: to reclaim our lost innocence and return to
our spiritual home. Some say this home is a place ("Eden"?), but in
essence it is the awareness of being at one with our Higher Self,
Creator, Source or God. This "return" is the primal urge and goal of
Ascension.
The "incarnation process" (or as
some would say, the “Fall from Grace”) of the soul,
was (for whatever reasons) initiated by a willful intention or choice
that led it to partake in the created universe. This choice bound the
soul to a series of cascading events, starting with being
thrust into the cosmic birthing process, carried away upon the
undulating waves of the creative (manifesting) energies of "Shakti
Kundalini" - the very substance and "Mother" of the universe. Within
this cosmic birth process, the soul found itself moved through many
inter-dimensional pathways and portals, finally pushed out and landing
onto any number of dimensional realms. In a very short time, in order
to maneuver through the ocean of that space, the soul took on the
vibrational vestments of that place, which then became the sheaths or
veils that made up its first body. Here then is what some souls may
consider their physical "point of origin" or "home", even though this
will be just one of many landing points the soul experiences
throughout its long journey through time and space.
Once the soul becomes veiled or embodied, the
process of being released from these veils of density and "ascending"
up from the bounds of creation (the "return to Eden", so to speak) can
be initiated by utilizing the destructive (dematerializing) energies
of the unmanifest Source, respectfully referred to here as the "Shiva
Consciousness".
The Ascension process - within the human condition
- is not necessarily the
removal or disintegration of the astral, solar, etheric and causal
bodies (the incarnation process in reverse). Rather, ascension here
would be the liberation of the consciousness
or soul from its attachments to all these bodily shells, which would
then allow the soul to realize its oneness with the Higher Self,
Source, Creator or God while still
in human form. Those who "ascend" in this way still maintain
the ability to function within all these bodies without having to
leave them behind at the point of a physical death.
Around and in between all of your energy bodies are any number of
"membranes", "sheaths", “walls” or "veils" that keep the various bodies,
energies and aspects of self separate from each other. When the soul was
traveling through and incarnating into the different dimensions, these
veils were (hopefully) formed, allowing the different bodies, energies
and selves to interface, transform and flow from one level to the next.
When the incarnated soul is ready to ascend, integrate and unite
with the next level of higher energy and consciousness, the veils
between must be removed.
There is a misconception that when the
physical body dies, your whole being ascends into some sort
of blissful paradise. Depending upon certain variables, this may
or may not be true. Though your soul has forcibly been ripped of its
"physical" garments, you still have many other energetic bodies, veils
and multi-dimensional selves or "aspects", all of which are not
automatically purified upon physical death (physical death only
effects the physical body). So no matter where you go (in time or
space) as long as these other energetic bodies, veils and selves are
not purified, they will continue to affect your subjective experience
of any reality you happen to find yourself in. Any body veil and
aspect not purified will act as a sort of glass ceiling,
preventing the lower levels of your consciousness from ascending,
as well as interfere with your ability to receive the guidance
and energies descending from the higher levels of spirit.
The Ascension Process is activated and guided by a
Higher Power or Consciousness that exists beyond the edges and
boundaries of our human selves. The only thing we can do to assist
that process is to be willing to let go or "surrender" our lives and
any semblance of ego control and identity, all attachments, limited
perceptions, worldly truths, thoughts, feelings, belief systems,
everything and anything... up into the accepting loving arms of the
Higher Power.
"Worldly truths" are created from the narrow
contracted state of awareness that is the "ego mind". The ego mind is
where all that is experienced of creation is filtered (and distorted)
through ones physical sense perceptions, mentally translated as
symbols or belief systems... all limited conceptual interpretations of
the infinite. To realize the unlimited universal "Divine Truths"
beyond, we must be willing to go through a deep process of total
disillusionment, questioning the reality of everything we are seeing,
feeling, hearing, thinking. As this process of disillusionment
happens, the false structures of what the ego mind believes and
holds as true comes crashing down. You may think and feel that all
reasons for living and being in the world are over. You may feel
absolutely miserable and deeply depressed. Your perception of the
world is turned inside out and upside down, and like Humpty Dumpty you
may feel you will never be able to pick up the pieces.
To Awaken from the Dream and Realize the Divine, ALL that is False MUST Collapse
Spiritual
awakening and ascension is about dismantling or deconstructing the
attachments we have to the dense limiting energetic structures of our
earth bound life. If you are in a balloon and want to rise up to the
highest heights possible, you must release all tethers (your ego safety
cords) and ballast (your stuff) holding you down.
The raising up of consciousness requires a letting
go of the old. This may even require the releasing of ones religion,
practices, teachers and spirit guides. They may have served you well
in the past, but if you want to go beyond, you have to let them go
(with your thanks). All the old must be released if one is to be free
and open to receiving the higher levels of Spirit.
It is the ego self that has grown accustomed to and identified
with all these old ways of being, thinking, feeling and doing. But
something has to be given up for something new (and better) to take
its place. This process of letting go may be deeply destabilizing and
unbalancing to the mind, emotions and body... you may even feel like
you are dying. Not to worry - it is the ego and its attachments that
are dying, not the true you. Since there are so many levels of
consciousness, one can experience this sort of dying process many
times over... each time the next plateau is reached it is as if one is
"born again" into a new self (and are given an upgrade to higher more
powerful teachings and spirit guides). This death and rebirth process
goes on and on until eventually you reach the highest consciousness of
your own God Self.. and beyond that, one starts to discover other God
Beings, and then things get really interesting.
From the ashes of the old the new and
greater is born.
Our inner soul is pure and free, full of love,
understanding, compassion, joy... but as long as we experience
ourselves within and through the constraints of the human condition
and limited ego mind, we don't fully realize this. However, as the
density of our human (materially oriented) consciousness is freed up
or “quickened” into finer more expanded subtle states of being,
we may then come to realize our inner truth and be able to fully know
and experience ourselves and others for who we really are.
This process of raising human
consciousness is called “Ascension”.
Due to the seductive appeal of the material forces
and lower ego mind consciousness, it is much harder to ascend our soul
from out of density than it was to descend.
Many newly incarnated souls (at first) find life in
density to be a rich experience, full of all sorts of phenomena and
novel sensations. This can be satisfying and pleasurable - for a time.
However, there comes a point when every soul is fed up with this drama
and starts to yearn for a freer, more peaceful and loving life.
However, complications arise when the soul finds itself unable to
extract itself from the attractions of the material world ("the spirit
is willing but the flesh is weak"). This is due to the fact that the
material has its own attractive magnetic force field. It’s like being
caught in the gravity field of a planetary body – unless one has
access to a greater power to resist and rise above, you are going to
fall in. And if by chance you find yourself already standing on the
ground (already incarnated into a body) you will have to generate an
even stronger force to escape the planets attractive pull. In other
words, once incarnated into a body, the soul is usually stuck
there until acted upon by a very strong force beyond itself (what we
may call Grace, God, Spirit, The Higher Power).
On ones own, it would normally take lifetimes of
arduous practice (ever masterfully guided and directed) to develop,
expand, free up and harness ones spiritual power to the degree capable
of catapulting (ascending) beyond the pull (gravity) of the
material forces. However, with assistance from The Higher Power, as
applied within the healing sessions, this process can be activated and
accelerated.
It required great effort exerted over a long
time for human technology to evolve to the point when it could
overcome gravity and send a rocket into celestial space. So too will
it require great effort by the embodied human soul to evolve
from the density and ascend into spiritual space. Along the way, the
qualities of patience, willingness, surrender, faith, trust,
courage, understanding and of course love.. will all be needed. Though
everyone has these qualities to some degree or another, no one has
them all perfectly developed. With assistance from The Higher Power,
all these qualities are magnified and refined.
The Path of
the Ascended Master
Following Your Heart
Where your attention goes, there
your heart is sure to follow. This is "The Law of Attraction" at work:
what you focus your energies and consciousness on (ie what you feed
and love) that is what you become. The thoughts, feelings and energies
you invest into building a career, talent, relationship, or anything
be it material or spiritual based... over time and much effort,
eventually manifests in and as you. As a human experiencing life on
this dimension, this can work for you, or against you. If you feed and
accumulate subtle vibrations into your energy field, you and your life
will become spiritual - expanded awake dynamic and alive ! If you feed
and accumulate dense vibrations into your energy field, you and your
life will become material - contracted asleep stagnant and dead. If
you find yourself in the later situation, the question becomes... How
to reverse this? There are many ways: by working for a cause, tithing
money, receiving healings, etc... all these sorts of things liberate
and expand your life force. It all boils down to choice - who and what
you want to become - material or spiritual? This freedom of
choice makes you and you alone, the master of your destiny.
The Voice You Follow Determines the Way
If the outer voice of ego and self...
ignorance, darkness and despair.
If the inner still small voice of Spirit...
Power, Wisdom, Love and Light.
The more you follow the guidance of
Spirit - aligned to the harmonious expansive flow and wisdom of the
universe - the more miraculous synchronicities may be
experienced.
Because of the "Law of Free Will", Spirit will
not interfere in your life without being invited in. The more areas
and issues you ask spirit to work on, the more spirit will be able to
help you. As you invite spirit into your entire life, eventually you
will become that which you love - the very Embodiment of Spirit
itself.
To be a master is not an easy achievement - it
requires one to be consistently on guard against ego attachment and
identification with the material world. Once accomplished here in this
density, that state becomes grounded in ones multi-dimensional
being (from the lowest to the highest). A being who is channeling or
manifesting the essence, energy, and vibration of the High Self upon
the earth plane - free of ego entanglement - is called an Ascended
Master.
To become an Ascended Master typically takes many
lives devoted to ones spiritual path. Much is asked of the master in
training.. thankfully, being nailed to a tree (crucified or martyred)
is not one of them. Though many souls have been horribly
persecuted and tortured for their beliefs, it is not a
prerequisite on the spiritual path or to becoming a master. Sometimes
the more difficult challenge is rather, not to go through such extreme
experiences but to change ones eating habits, leave a co-dependent
relationship, prioritize ones spending, or eliminate addictive
behaviors. Perhaps journaling in a diary may be a step in the right
direction, or meditating an hour a day, or receiving healing
sessions... any of these and or something else may be required to
develop self mastery. And what is right for one is not necessarily
right for another, it all depends on your path, which is unique
from person to person. In other words, there is no one way that
fits all... but there is one way that fits you.
However your path looks, it will be unique to you.
As we are all unique individuals with unique histories and issues, our
unique tests and challenges can be quite different than that
which is asked of another. Thankfully, once you really "get" or master
a particular experience, you usually don't have to do it again.
To be a Master.. first
be a Student of the Higher Self.
The greatest problems on the path do
not come from someone or something "out there" but from what lies
within our own self.
No matter what happens to us in
life, we are personally responsible for the way we respond. To embrace
this truth is the path of mastery.
Planetary Ascension
One day we shall liberate our consciousness from the last bonds of
earthy attachments and realize that primal, unlimited, infinite place we
once knew as innocent pure souls.
“Is it really possible to experience the boundlessness of Spirit within
the limitations of the human body?” Great Spirits overseeing the
ascension of this planet and its inhabitants are constantly working
behind the scenes to make this very goal a reality. They are doing
everything in their power to make this come true.. for this is the
“Divine Agenda”, “The Master Plan”, “The Grand Experiment” we have
signed up for on Planet Earth. Sounds outrageous (and it is), but
Spirit does not think small (nor should we).
It is my understanding that those souls who miss the “ascension boat” in
this “
planetary
cycle”* will not be able to remain in body on this planet after
the shift, but will be transferred to another planet (one with a lower
vibration) there to continue an education more in line with their more
baser consciousness.
(*A “
planetary
cycle” is a spiritual and energetic phase of development within
the history of a whole planet. Just like universities have a quota to
accept a select # students and reject those others who don’t match the
minimum requirements, so too are Souls brought to particular planets or
“schools” that can accommodate their soul’s lesson plans and that are in
line with the souls life path. If a planet ascends beyond a soul’s
ability to handle its elevated consciousness and vibrations, the soul
will not be able to remain in that planets energy field and will be
kicked out.)
Tremendous changes are taking place in our world
rippling effects caused by a series of inner choices.
This is the beginning of a global paradigm shift
"A Revolution of Consciousness"
The
last war will not be won by sword or gun
but through a change of consciousness.
|
Conspiracy (con + spire) "to breathe together".
A SPIRITUAL
“CONSPIRACY”
On the surface of our world right now
There is war, violence, and craziness
And things may seem dark.
But calmly and quietly
At the same time
Something is happening underground.
An inner revolution is taking place
And certain individuals
Are being called to a higher light.
It is a silent revolution
From the inside out
From the ground up.
This is a global co-operation
That has sleeper cells in every nation.
It is a planetary Spiritual Conspiracy.
You won’t likely see us on T.V.
You won’t read about us in the newspaper.
You won’t hear from us on the radio.
We don’t seek glory.
We don’t wear any uniform.
We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles.
We are in every country and culture of the world
In cities big and small, mountains and valleys
In farms and villages, tribes and remote islands.
Most of us work anonymously
Seeking not recognition of name
But profound transformation of life.
Working quietly behind the scenes
You could pass by one of us on the street
And not even notice.
We go undercover
Not concerned for who takes the final credit
But simply that the work gets done.
Many of us may seem to have normal jobs.
But behind the external storefront
Is where the deeper work takes a place.
With the individual and collective power
Of our minds and hearts
We spread passion, knowledge, and joy to all.
Some call us the Conscious Army
As together
We co-create a new world.
Our orders come from the Spiritual Intelligence Agency
Instructing us to drop soft, secret love bombs
when no one is looking.
Poems ~ Hugs ~ Music ~ Photography ~ Smiles ~
Kind words ~ Movies ~ Meditation and prayer ~
Dance ~ Websites ~ Social activism ~ Blogs ~
Random acts of kindness…
We each express ourselves
In our own unique ways
With our own unique gifts and talents.
“Be the change you want to see in the world”
That is the motto that fills our hearts.
We know this is the path to profound transformation.
We know that quietly and humbly
Individually and collectively
We have the power of all the oceans combined.
At first glance our work is not even visible.
It is slow and meticulous
Like the formation of mountains.
And yet with our combined efforts
Entire tectonic plates
Are being shaped and moved for centuries to come.
Love is the religion we come to share
And you don’t need to be highly educated
Or have exceptional knowledge to understand it.
Love arises from the intelligence of the heart
Embedded in the timeless evolutionary pulse
Of all living beings.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Nobody else can do it for you.
Yet don’t forget, we are all here supporting you.
We are now recruiting.
Perhaps you will join us
Or already have.
For in this spiritual conspiracy
All are welcome, and all are loved.
The door is always open.
