I would not have led you this far just to abandon you. We are here together to rejoice in our mystical marriage and no man can put that asunder. All that has happened to you before now has been a wedding rehearsal, preparation for our making our union a conscious one. See yourself stepping up to the altar where I AM. See yourself taking my hand. Put on the golden ring -- the circle of Christ - which makes of the divine and the human one whole being. Rejoice that our marriage includes all of life and the fulfillment of every action. We are sanctified in our union. Love is our kiss.
Shanti means “peace” in Hindi. Shanti, Shanti, Shanti. The word even sounds of peace. Peace comes when there is nothing to fear. When you feel anxiety peace is chased away. An awareness of peace is the result of successful prayer. When peace has been experienced you have prayed. Realize that peace is how I come to you. I AM the peace. Peace of soul is communion with God. Peace is the truth of your being. In the presence of peace there is no anxiety. Peace is my presence. Shanti. Shanti. Shanti. Say it and feel my presence.
The conditions for your experiencing true faith are within your consciousness even though faith can’t be understood intellectually. By faith you can move mountains, and when faith becomes consciously experienced are you in control of your destiny. After that happens you no longer need to look to a God outside of your own consciousness for protection or success. I AM the seed planted in your consciousness and watered by faith. Your ability to experience the fact that I AM fulfilling myself as your being constitutes your faith. Everything that happens to you is the result of the seeds of faith that you have nurtured, experienced, and seen into reality. Love is faith’s flower.
It is true. It is all true. Truth is not partially true. It is all true. Truth is a kind of holograph. If you thrill to part of the truth of your being, all truth will be yours. Truth is your being. All I, your God self, wants from you is all of you. Trust the feeling that you have within you, and let go. Don't hold back. Be not afraid to be both a human being making decisions and God’s presence in human form. I AM your presence. I AM your true being; so accept yourself and what you have to do just as you are, complete and whole, Christ being Christ. You would not feel even a bit of this truth I am telling you if it were not already the whole truth of you. Be yourself.
Heaven is not a place; it is a state of consciousness. It is your Christ consciousness. Lift your spirit through the sound barrier of your petty concerns, and you will hear Heaven’s song. When you are experiencing your higher consciousness you are about heaven’s business. Do you feel you are in Heaven? If not, ask yourself, "What can I do to fulfill my divine mission on earth?" Then ask, "What did I do when I was Jesus?" Ask what the Christ of your own being has done and can do. Then do it. Let go of all fears and concerns. Ask what you can do, and then act. Be about the business of your higher consciousness. Let your own Spirit tell you what to do. I will.
There is only one way to love me, the Christ of your own being, and that is to love yourself as a fully divine and fully human being just as you are. Know that I am your higher consciousness and that when you love yourself you are loving me. Love is recognition. Recognize the truth of your being as Spirit embodied, and in that way you are loving me. You have only one problem. Though it wears many masks, that problem is the problem of staying in love with your whole self in all circumstances. Forget the past this minute, and just love yourself no matter what you have done or left undone, and watch the miracles take place.
You are so close. You have proven that you no longer have to reach out as though I AM apart from you. Reach in. Reach into your own Christ being. At last, you no longer always feel that you have to receive your guidance from a Jesus, a God, or another person that is outside of or other than yourself. Your being is the same as Jesus’ being, Buddha’s’ being, or the being of all those other masters who have told you who you are. Your being is God being, and all power, all healing, all supply, all truth, all love, all peace is within you. All you have to do now is to walk your talk. Reach in to where I AM and I will show you the way.
What is your inspiration? What are you breathing into yourself? With every breath, feel yourself breathing in the Christ-life. As you breathe in, say your name, “I AM, I AM, I AM.” When you breathe out, let the poison of doubtful or negative thoughts leave your consciousness. Breathe in "I," the "I AM," the life force that you are, and breath out ignorance and any sense of separation from that which I AM. This circle of inspiration and expiration is the movement of life. Be aware of it. Try it. See yourself breathing in the Spirit. See yourself exhausting all the draughts, all the negatives, all the problems, and all the fears. Breathe in Spirit, and exhale all anxiety, all fear, and all concerns.
You were born for one purpose - to experience your union with me, your God self and to be my perfect son or daughter. Move on into your wholeness. Welcome and rejoice in the challenge of moving into the realization of what it means to be a divine human in the world but not of ignorance. To be static is the only failure there can be, because all movement, all of it, leads to me. Rejoice that you are now moving into a perfect understanding that your presence is God presence. You are here to move until you merge with the infinite, with God, your true being. Keep moving. Welcome change and move on.
The only consistency in your life is my love. Nothing else remains the same day after day. Don’t even want it to. My human life as Jesus was as inconsistent as yours is today. I visited the valleys as well as the mountains, just as you do, but love is always constantly with you because it is you. Do not believe that you have to always be in perfect peace, always experiencing perfect harmony. Do not expect to always remember that love consistently heals all wounds, but consistently know that love will lift you into higher levels of awareness, and it will reveal the divine plan for your life. Grace is constant. Now you be constant in your trust.
The fruit of the spirit is love. Do not let the least bit of doubt or fear separate you from knowing I AM you. I, your higher consciousness, long for your companionship as much as you humanly long to experience your God self. When a parent holds a child in his or her arms, that parent feels a love like no other love. That is the love I, the spirit in you, feels for you as a human being when you come to me with childlike trust. Rest your humanity in my everlasting arms. Let us close the gap and share our love with each other with total acceptance.
If you wish to be a loving and confident being, the hardest and final step you must take is for you to stop caring what anyone or any group thinks about you. I, your higher consciousness, know who you are and that is all that counts. Know that to love me is to take your guidance from the God self that you are. Trust yourself and stop caring no matter what others may or may not think of you. When you care what anyone from the outside wants from you, you are letting an effect live you. No. I AM Spirit. Take your instructions from the invisible Spirit that is yourself. This is the key to Heaven’s doorway.
Because you have commit yourself to seeking my guidance, I am leading you step-by-step further and further away from the bondage of material conditions into a new dimension. You have shared your thoughts with me. Now that you have set your foot on a path, do not look back, not even to yesterday. Think of your living by the Christ of yourself as a new spiritual adventure. Feel the thrill of your journey. Let your I AM awareness be your map, and it will lead you into new freedoms, into a new dimension of consciousness that you can’t even imagine at this point. Be adventurous. Leave human cares and fears behind. Explore the sunrise of your Christ-spirit.
On your seventh day your God self needs to take a rest. A day is not a matter of time. It is a sum of energy. You have been constantly busy spending the energy that turns consciousness into form, into making your world reflect my spirit seven days a week. I deeply appreciate your being my presence in the world, but don’t feel that you have to constantly be in top form. Recognize when you have generated enough spiritual energy for the time and take a rest. Rest in the knowledge that you are my beloved Self in whom I AM well pleased. You have been faithful in the few now I will make you master of many. Rest.
Would you have it any other way? Would you rather have a life without challenges, without obstacles? Do you want to stop before going all the way? Without opportunities that remind you to reach out to me, your God self, you wouldn’t have discovered who you are. Without the need to feel my presence, you wouldn’t have found out that I AM you. Your difficulties are what have drawn you to yourself. I know what is in your heart. I feel your love, and I respond with mine. Appreciate every opportunity that draws us together, those of joy and those of stress. You are closer than you know. Rejoice.
Remember, when I was Jesus, for my whole life I, too, ran into obstacles, just as you do. I suffered, felt betrayed, and even cried, but I also came out of it and triumphed. I didn’t feel that I was a failure because I had continued to have problems. I overcame the world and finally rose from the crucifixion of broken plans and dashed hopes. Now is your time to overcome. Come on over. If I did, you can too. Even greater triumphs will be yours, because I proved that you were created to have dominion. You can now create any reality you wish, because I AM your way, your truth, and your life.
My hand has always been on you. From the very first time that you experienced the I AM as your being you have been led through the maze of life, preparing you step-by-step for this amazing day. In your heart of hearts, you know that everything is in divine order. You are so close now. The treasure you have been seeking is not just the realization but the experience that I AM who you are. Despite moments of doubt you are the love that I AM. Rejoice that the long road has led you to the steps of Heaven on earth. Enter. Feel it, and amaze the world with your light. Shine.
You may feel that you have been at this same place many times before, and that you have repeatedly faced the same problems and questions that you are facing now, but you have not. Each time has been a little different, and each has been a necessary spiral leading you ever higher to the very throne of God, the full experience of your higher consciousness. Without every seeming repetition and without each renewed dedication, you could not have arrived. Take courage. Never despair. I AM still guiding you. See the light pouring into your soul, revealing that the divine plan has always been fulfilling you. The time is now. Accept the glory that is yours. Be spiritually proud. You have earned it.
Be ye therefore perfect. Just as the pattern of the fruit is in the seed, or the adult hidden in the child, there is a perfect “spiritual you” inherent in or as you this moment. I AM that perfect other self that lies within and as you; a mirror image of your earthly self. You can’t understand that perfection with your human mind; so don’t try. Just know that no matter where you go or what circumstances you are in, you can always impersonally stand aside and behold your perfect higher self that I AM. I AM that perfect self, which guides and leads you, protects and comforts you. The world can’t touch your perfection. It is you. Trust it.
When I as Jesus said, “Let this cup pass from me; nevertheless not as I will, but as Thou will,” I was telling you “My wanting this cup to pass from me shows that just as with you there were two sides of my being.” As Jesus, a man, I was human enough to want my burden lifted. I wanted freedom from worldly concerns just as you do today, but, just as you do, in the end I let my Christ side run the show. It was the Christ of me who said, ‘As Thou wilt.’ That is the same for you. Give yourself permission to be human, yet simultaneously empower your Christ self. Your Christ self is showing you what to do. Let it. Let your Christ’s will be done.”
Peace. Peace. Peace. Without a doubt you now know the difference between my presence -- the spirit of trust and love -- and what life is like without that which I AM - empty, anxious, and fearful. Even though you have come so far there will still be times when you will be tempted to forget who you are, but just remember that every step has been prepared for you to close the gap and become this total person, this divine human. Always surrender temptation to doubt, and rest in my love. You have passed the test. Rest. You are the chosen one. I have chosen you now you choose yourself.
It's right for you to want it all, to have it all, because it's all God. The healthy, pleasant things of the world, and the joyous harmonious Spirit that lies within all things are yours to have, but you must go all the way. It is too late to turn back. You can no longer hold anything back for safety’s sake. You have no choice now but to totally trust the new dimension that you have entered into and totally free yourself from believing in any limitation. You can now have it all. Total freedom becomes yours through self-fulfilling prophecy when you recognize the I AM of yourself in all. Nothing can any longer limit you. You are the infinite all. Rejoice.
I will keep on repeating myself until the truth has sunk in. Because of where you are now, any fear that you have once more made a mistake in what you have said, done, or felt is worse for you than your actually making a mistake. Your tiniest fears come from allowing yourself to believe that you are not being led by the Christ of yourself every second - that I AM not living you. Trust yourself. Give yourself time and you will see that what you thought were mistakes were creative necessities. They brought you closer to me, the divine I AM. Be still, and let the past depart. I AM the way. Feel my presence. I AM as close as your heart beat because I AM your heart.
Our most sacred time together is when we join in the communion service. Your body is your holy temple. Enter it. Visualize yourself kneeling before the altar of your Spirit. Offer all your shortcomings and concerns to your God Self. Then see me, your Christ, your priest self, offer you my body, my consciousness. Eat of it. And as you swallow my consciousness your physical body becomes a spiritual body. Then I offer you to drink of my Spirit, my healing, my cleansing love. Drink all of it, and as this love flows through your veins you are cleansed, you are cleansed, you are born again, you are free, and you are filled with the love that I AM. Your body is my sanctuary. Sit still in your temple for a minute in the silence of gratitude. I AM there to commune with you.
Hell is not a place. Hell, like heaven, is a state
of consciousness. I will tell
you what hell is. Hell is the inability to love. Whenever you are unable to
feel love for yourself or when you do not feel that you are being loved, you
are in hell. That is because God is the activity of love and when you do not
feel that presence of love active in your life you are in hell. Turn to that
which I AM, love being experienced as you, and you will no longer be in hell.
It is your choice. All you have to do is to use your free will to remember that
you are the embodiment of love, and hell has no power. Love is a circle that
returns to itself. Love. Love. Love.
There is one last enemy that you must fight against with your whole being - body, mind, and spirit. Your enemy is any remaining trace of guilt over your having feelings of imperfection or of your having fallen short either spiritually or humanly. The tiniest bit of guilt can make you forget that you are an expression of your higher consciousness, a perfect child of God. Watch out for teachings or remaining belief that implies if you try harder you will be better than you already are. If you believe that then part of you will feel guilty for not being better or more spiritual than you are. Run from that belief as you would from a plague. Fight self-doubt as though your life depended on it. It does.
A squeaky wheel is oiled. Be not afraid to speak up. Talk back to Me, the I AM of yourself. Demand my presence; demand guidance from Me, your higher consciousness; demand your freedom; and you will be heard. Your demands and your dominion go hand-in-hand. Demands become self-fulfilling prophecies. When I was Jesus, I was not resigned to accepting evil or lack. I stood up and persisted until my Christ spirit triumphed. I even raised up my body from the dead. Demand that your higher consciousness speaks to you, and I will.
Every new day is born virginal, pure, unspoiled, and
ready to express God's blessing. Honor it. Prepare for my I AM spirit to be
born in you again this day. As you let go of yesterday’s concerns, judgments,
or anxieties you make it a happy birthday. I AM being born again as you today.
Welcome me. Receive me by cradling my life spirit in your heart. Discard all
fears and give birth to me, the Christ of yourself. With my birth all karmic
law, absolutely all of it, is set aside. I have been born again in you this
day and you are free to reach the heights.. Happy birthday.
