AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL DISCOURSE/LETTER
FROM JESUS THE CHRIST:
CORRECTS THE BIBLICAL RECORD AND GIVES A MESSAGE TO HUMANITY
PART I
Jesus Image from Shroud of Turin
I, the CHRIST, take this opportunity to speak directly to YOU.
I have come to rectify the misinterpretations placed on the teachings given when known as ‘Jesus’ in Palestine more than 2000 years ago. These Letters are being put through one who, during the past forty years, has been spiritually sensitive and dedicated enough to receive my words and act on them.
These Letters Are Truth. They transcend all religious doctrines in the world.
These letters will liberate you!
These Letters are for all people who are searching for meaning to existence, purpose in their lives, strength to face the daily struggle to live and endure hardship, sickness, despair, and inspiration for those who aspire to greater spiritual awareness in their daily lives.
You might say that these Letters are a MASTER’S COURSE for those who are ready to put foot to the path which I traveled when on earth in Palestine.
You may doubt that the above words are true. As you read these pages and go into the facts I am giving you concerning existence and the origins of personality, you will realize that this truth could only have come from the highest source.
Those who have difficulty in understanding the Letters should read them a page at a time, then put them aside and meditate. Gradually, the meaning will seep into your consciousness for these pages are a link between your consciousness and my transcendent consciousness.
Come to these Letters with a mind as free of ideas and beliefs and prejudice as a very little child before it is indoctrinated with human belief.
Bring me your uncluttered mind, a seeking mind, and I will fill it with true treasure, the treasure of highest knowledge which, as you absorb it, will lighten your daily load and lead you into ‘green pastures of brightest light’, signifying abundance, joy, rapture and fulfillment of every need. You will come to know how it feels to be abundantly blest with all that exists beyond your present human comprehension.
These Letters are sent to all people throughout the world with my compassion and love. As you read them, you will feel the love and the compassion and will come to realize that your daily struggles with existence were never intended for you. There is no need for you to experience pain and stress when you understand, absorb and practice the TRUTH OF EXISTENCE consistently.
1. The Purpose Behind These Letters
These Letters are intended to bring enlightenment to the world generally, to enable humanity to construct a NEW CONSCIOUSNESS during the next two thousand years. These Letters are the seeds of the future spiritual evolution of humankind.
Note well: It is the spiritual evolution of the ‘human consciousness’ that brings about the mental and physical evolution in your personal and global lives and brings humanity into ever more harmonious states of well-being.
If you find this hard to believe, reflect on the past two thousand years and see what has been accomplished since I last spoke to people in person. There has been a gradual evolutionary trend towards the brotherly love I constantly preached to the Jews.
When I walked the earth, there were no such humanitarian organizations as you have now. Ambition, greed, and self-gratification were regarded as normal behavior.
There was little brotherly love even amongst the Jews whose Prophets, for generations, had exhorted them to love their neighbors as themselves.
As humanity has developed its capacity for brotherly love, so has humanity made life more pleasant and comfortable for itself in the form of mutual consideration, courtesy, kindness, and in the provision of hospitals, child welfare societies, care of the aged, human rights movements, and many other institutions devoted to the improvement of the human condition. All these have been born in the hearts and minds of those who sincerely heeded my original words spoken in Palestine urging people towards brotherly love and compassion for their fellow men.
This form of spiritual caring and brotherly love gained tremendous impetus in the 19th century, when my words were preached with renewed sincerity and intensity from pulpits and gladly received by earnest and sincere congregations. Preachers and congregations were, by that time, spread worldwide on every continent. The Sabbath was truly regarded as a day of rest and the thoughts of the majority of Christian people were lifted to the contemplation of the power of God.
Such a worldwide cessation from normal duties and occupations, meant that a 24-hour long elevation of ‘conscious thought’ towards the Divine Creative Power created a regular and powerful ‘human/Divine’ consciousness underpinning and inter-threading human lives. Human petition drew the Power of the Divine into the human consciousness and human experience and led directly to growth and expansion in every facet of human life.
However, people did not yet know how to mentally direct Divine Power into spiritual rather than ‘ego’ channels of creativity. Consequently, the expansion of ‘collective consciousness’ brought ‘evil’ results arising out of the ‘ego power’ as well as the ‘good’ results produced by the ‘spiritual consciousness’ of inspired and enlightened people..
FOR THIS REASON … I have come expressly to explain to you … a vitally important fact of existence. Please read carefully.
It is this:
* Your personal consciousness is entirely responsible for whatever comes into your life and personal experience. It is your personal consciousness which brings you good or evil. *
* In your subconscious, you bring through strongly imprinted but hidden recollections of past traumas/emotions of past life/lives which can erupt and color your present consciousness. *
* Your specific and impassioned prayer for alleviation of some kind, may be answered but it will avail you little in the long term if your mind and heart continually operate in contravention of the Universal Laws of LOVE and you live in a mindset of constant criticism. *
Universal Laws of Existence relate ONLY to ‘activities of consciousness’ … and are exact and undeviating … they are NOT rewards or punishment from ‘God’.
I repeat: are not ‘PUNISHMENT FROM GOD’ – they relate to the ‘Causative Factor of Consciousness’ which attract/magnetize electrical particles that thus bond together and appear to the world as outer visible solid forms and experiences.
N.B. Sometimes, people make powerfully prayerful contact with the DIVINE REALITY behind and within all creation, It responds and Its activity is shortly revealed as necessary improvements within the personal and national life – and people may exclaim ‘This is a miracle!’
But – in the long term, – the state of the Personal or National consciousness will again reassert itself in their experiences and will reproduce the same negative effects in health or affairs as they did previously.
You cannot effect permanent changes in your lives unless you change your consciousness.
Therefore people must pray and strive at all times to achieve unconditional Love.
For in the 20th century, human mental abilities out-stripped their spiritual development.
Scientists thought they could explain away the origins of creation and ascribe them to an accident. As a direct result, people ditched morality and began to give way utterly to self-will.
They set in motion a new momentum of menace in the world, for they began to create a new form of ‘world ego-consciousness’ directly in opposition to the NATURE of the Divine – UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. The human consciousness blocked the inflow of the Divine.
NOTE WELL: The ever-increasing lurid imaginings of a few people, which would have been contained locally, a century ago, now became a –CONTAGIOUS MENTAL INFECTION glorified in literature, films, theater, spreading worldwide, creating a global ‘Human Consciousness’ similar to their own, expressed as sexual excesses, violence, and perversions. This mental infection first manifests as egocentric modes of living and the creation of technical devices – which have created serious health disorders, climatical changes, crop failures, environment deterioration, extinction of living creatures, and wholesale slaughter of human beings.
Mental Infection manifests in the human personality as deranged and destructive behavior, drug-taking, abominable cruelty and depravity, gangster operations, and sexual excesses. Thus has a vicious circle of malignancy and perversions of thought and activities been created by entertainment and media magnates. The purpose – to capture egocentric public vested interest.
Your TV and Cinema screen has become the new Bible of human behavior.
Personal tragedies unknown to human kind a century ago, have become rife and people live in fear of walking the streets. Households are barricaded behind high walls. Family and social problems are taken into regular public debate – and so the saga of human misery is perpetuated.
This is the BEAST stalking your lands and feeding a miasma of beastliness into innocent minds.
**It will be perpetuated until my Christ Knowledge is acknowledged, accepted and lived by the majority of people on earth. Because this knowledge will show you how to get back on the true PATH OF LIFE in order to start creating the kind of lives you truly desire.**
Because I am unconditional LOVE I am speaking the TRUTH which many spiritual minds suspect but which is rejected by those who are spiritually blind – at the moment.
These words are not spoken to threaten or punish you – but to alert you to the source of all the unspeakable horrors which daily fill your newspapers and TV screens. !
It is only my love for all people that forces me to descend through the various levels of consciousness to reach the dimension of human depravity to warn you of its consequences in your present lives.**
NOTE WELL – IMPORTANT:
You wonder from whence has come the HIV virus which attacks man’s precious self-defense system – the immune system, and also targets his abilities to procreate?
This virus, if left to spread unchecked – (not by drugs) – by SPIRITUAL AWARENESS – will wipe out the unwary. The Enlightened will avoid these and other pitfalls of existence.
Wake up! Realize! Your own strong ‘consciousness impulses’ are life impulses.
They are highly creative electromagnetic impulses!
When they are of a virulent – violent – aggressive – murderous nature – they emit electrical particles of virulent, violent, aggressive, murderous CONSCIOUSNESS which take form as virulent viruses in the air, spreading from one innocent person to another.
What is born and nurtured in the diseased mind eventually takes on form in the physical world. This is not punishment from ‘God’ as the churches may teach you. It is, a SCIENTIFIC FACT OF EXISTENCE. Therefore, it is a matter of extreme urgency for all spiritually minded people to set aside ‘infantile’ imaginings to perceive, clearly, the TRUTH of creation and existence.
2. My Message to all Churches
I, the CHRIST, have come expressly to tell you the truth about the origins of the ‘human personality’. I will explain exactly why and how mankind has been given a natural inbuilt propensity for self-will and a controlling desire for self-gratification and self-defense.
This is not sin – but part of the natural creative processes.
There is NO ‘punishment’ from on high!
Men, through the willful and harmful exercise of their ‘Ego-Power’, draw to themselves their own punishment.
For this reason, just as scientific school text-books become redundant as the human mind discovers and absorbs more advanced scientific knowledge, so should the present form of ‘Christianity’, built upon spurious doctrines centered around my crucifixion, be allowed to die a natural death.
N.B. Your present global crisis, introducing a new break down of International Law and laying the foundation for future global terrorism, clearly indicates that no religion in the world possesses the requisite knowledge and effective leadership to initiate changes in human mental patterns – which will lead directly to peace and prosperity.
3. The True Spiritual Leader
The True Spiritual Leader will be able to show their congregations how and why modern mindsets have created the calamities and horrors which have been created in ‘consciousness’ and are only just beginning to make themselves fully felt in your midst as diverse forms of pestilence and earthquakes, floods, famines, wars, revolution and other tragedies. Be assured! No evil which comes to your earth is a ‘natural disaster’. Everything inimical to your perfect welfare is bred first in your ‘human consciousness’ and then given form within your global experience. This is what I tried to tell the Jews when I walked the earth – and WEPT – when they laughed and refused to believe it. They called me a madman.
Let not the churches make the same mistake!
Because the churches have been moribund, cemented into rituals and dogmas, their priests and pastors have been unable to meet the evolving spiritual needs of ardent seekers of Truth. As a result, the churches are emptying.
If they are to endure, the churches must put aside their differences and have the humility to accept that inspiration does not necessarily come to earth in ways acceptable to themselves. They must remember that I, the Christ, was not acceptable to the Jews.
The churches must keep open minds and hearts to receive whatever they intuitively feel is a Higher Truth than that to which they presently cling … and to abandon the old beliefs which have permitted the BEAST to take control of human thought.
Pray sincerely, with all your souls, minds, and hearts – for true enlightenment – rather than a reiteration of old and false beliefs. Wake up and accept that these rituals and past beliefs have not fulfilled my words to mankind, when I promised that ‘greater things than I did’ would you do.
Meanwhile, until true enlightenment comes to you – (after much meditation and prayer) – teach, demonstrate and live: BROTHERLY LOVE with all the strength of soul, heart and mind –minute by minute in your daily lives. Because – to combat the global destructive consciousness forces, humanity must make every effort to move on swiftly to the next stage of its development.
4. Urgent Need for a Higher Vision
It must be widely accepted there is a HIGHER VISION to strive to implement in your daily lives.
It is only by reaching for a higher vision that the physical world will be rescued from wholesale annihilation.
Without the vision either for the self or for the world, there can be no spiritual evolution or the achievement of those things greatly desired. At the present time, your perception of life is one of travail and deprivation. These beliefs are shockingly depicted and reinforced by your TV viewing. They later bring upon you the misery you hope will never happen to you.
Therefore, to save you from your own folly expressed through the media and TV, the ‘human consciousness’ must be SPEEDILY uplifted to see what I saw in the desert – the Reality of Love behind and within all existence.
When this great truth is both perceived and warmly acknowledged, the Reality of Love will begin to manifest Itself in multiple ways in every living thing and in the environment itself.
The experience of abundance and joy will reinforce the consciousness of abundance and joy. And so a spiritual spiral of ever more exalted and wondrous living will be set in motion.
When the TRUE nature of ‘Being’ is fully understood – humanity will move on to the next rung of spiritual evolution and will put into motion a new and blessed form of human endeavor and personal experience. To achieve these goals, humanity must first gain insight into: WHAT and WHO you are.
5. WHAT and WHO you are.
A new and important question is already coming into people’s consciousness. ‘Who are you – really – behind the facade you present to the world?’ What does it take to be REAL?
It is this question of ‘Who you really are’ which is answered, on every level of your being, within these pages. And, if you can accept as your own guidelines for daily living – all that I understood during my six-weeks ‘desert’ experience – you too will eventually become WHOLE and REAL even as I became WHOLE and REAL before I commenced my ministry of healing and teaching.
Since there are few people in the world who would regard themselves as WHOLE at this present time, you must surely recognize that there is the most urgent necessity for me to intrude into your minds to lead you into a new way of thought and feeling. Such a change in consciousness will bring you into Divine harmony with Reality and better living conditions and security.
To be able to do this work of ‘reconstruction’ within your ‘consciousness’, I must first impress on your minds – and you must accept – there was much that I taught in Palestine which men were not yet ready to receive.
Significantly, it has never been publicly questioned why there is no record of my early life as a young man. What was the true reason for such an all-important omission?
Equally significant, although I spent six weeks in the desert after my baptism, and emerged from that experience as a TEACHER and HEALER, not one writer has even attempted to describe what actually took place during that time other than that I was ‘tempted of the devil’ and ‘was with the wild beasts’ and the ‘angels were with him’. There is not the slightest ‘hint’ as to what happened to me in the desert which would enable me to come back to towns and villages proclaiming the ‘Kingdom of God is within!’ and to speak in the synagogues with such authority that the Jewish elders were astonished.
The truth regarding my human state was, by common consent of my disciples, suppressed to give greater credence to my supposed ‘Divinity’ and ministry.
According to the gospels, it was said of me that I was the ‘only Son of God’. Why then, did I frequently refer to myself as the ‘Son of Man’? I specifically made these statements to counteract the prevalent beliefs in my ‘Divinity’ and to impress on people’s minds that I was of the same physical origins as themselves. I intended them to understand that what I could do, they could also do if they only had my knowledge and followed my instructions for right thinking and right action.
So many myths have arisen around my earthly person and my SPIRITUAL CONSCIOUSNESS that it is time to be rid of them as completely as possible, since they are preventing people from evolving spiritually.
You, who have been indoctrinated with religious teachings, must try to understand that when describing my life, my disciple gospellers related only what they personally remembered which fully supported their account of my ‘supernatural’ activities. They also included much that had been spoken of me by others, during the thirty odd years following my death.
After such a lapse of time and inevitable embroidery of truth – how could they possibly write an authoritative ‘biography’ of me and of what really happened … or properly explain my true spiritual perceptions which gave birth to my words and ‘miracles’?
Only one person can write from this standpoint – and that is myself. Therefore, these Letters will bring you my Truth in a way that no spectator could possibly tell it, no matter how well they thought they understood my thinking.
For this reason, over forty years, my ‘Recorder’s’ mind has been systematically cleansed of all orthodox teachings and the system of communication between us has been perfected.
If my Truth expressed in these Letters differs from much written in your New Testament, is it to be wondered at or rejected for that reason?
Therefore, I am descending in consciousness briefly, as near as necessary, to your plane of consciousness to describe my life and teachings more than 2000 years ago.
6. My Place in History
I must first point out that my life and person were briefly referred to in the ‘History of the Jews’ written by Josephus for the Roman Governor, and presented to the Roman Emperor.
Josephus briefly noted that Jesus, who attempted to overthrow law and order and the governance of the Romans was punished and crucified.
It has been argued that this was some other Jesus recorded by Josephus. But this is not so. I, who later became the CHRIST who performed so-called miracles of healing and materialization, was the insurrectionist. But – I was no ‘rabble rouser’. I did not deliberately stir people up to defy the Romans and disrupt law and order.
I was a rebel against existing Jewish traditions and because, when I emerged from my six weeks sojourn in the desert, I saw a better way to – think – and – live – and I tried to pass on my knowledge to my fellow Jews with little success.
It is important you should understand that the pressure of public opinion weighed with my followers. Whilst, they truly believed I had brought a ‘soul-saving’ message to the Jews and was the Messiah, the ‘Son of God’, they were also of the world, trying to relate to the world as best they could. Therefore, although they knew my reactive feelings towards the Jewish beliefs, they were not happy to dispense with the Old Testament altogether, since it had supported and kept the Jews together throughout their history. In the interests of preserving what they thought to be valuable in the old dispensation, they suppressed any description of the ‘person’ I was.
My disciples and Paul built their own edifice of ‘sacred beliefs’ on what they wanted to preserve from my life and teachings. They only taught, and consolidated what they deemed to be valuable to people – Jews and Gentiles – alike – at that time and in the future.
Consequently, they distilled what they could use and they ‘let go’ most of what I termed the ‘secrets of the Kingdom of God’ for they never understood them. Nor found them desirable in the creation of a new perception of the ‘Divine’ – the ‘Father’.
To preserve the Jewish belief in ‘salvation from punishment for sins’ by means of sacrifice in the Temple – the ‘person of Jesus’ was adopted as the ‘supreme’ sacrifice who had paid for men’s sins by my crucifixion. This belief served many purposes at that time.
It gave my death on the cross – a valid and heroic reason. It proved to the people that I was the ‘Son of God’ who had carried out a specific mission to the very end of my life.
This belief also proved to be of great comfort to Jews when their Temple was destroyed by the Romans – and led to many converts taking place.
Many sects of Jews – and Gentiles also – did not believe in life after death. Consequently, it was greatly comforting to hear that ‘Jesus Christ’ had overcome death and retained his body. To much human thought at that time, life was not possible without a body. Therefore, life after death could only mean the resurrection of the body.
It also kept my name constantly alive in the minds of people. I was the ‘historic figure’ who had valiantly died to ensure that men should be freed of all fear of hell and damnation. Providing they believed in ‘me’, they could walk as ‘freed men’.
It is only because my ‘name’ has been kept alive to this very day that I am now able to come to you and give you of the TRUTH I so dearly wanted to share with people over 2000 years ago.
7. My Early Life andExperiences in the Desert
I was born in Palestine. My mother was convinced that I would be a Messiah. Contrary to popular belief, I was not a saintly child.
When taken to the Temple, aged twelve years old, to be interviewed by the Chief Priests to determine whether I would be fit to enter Jewish Religious Training, I was rejected as being too opinionated.
Bitterly disappointed, my mother took me home again and did her best to raise me in the sanctity which marked her own demeanor at all times. This was an impossible task for I was, above all things, an individualist and unruly in behavior. I resented my mother’s guidance and her attempted discipline. As a youth, I became unmanageable – a true rebel!
I rejected my mother’s staunch adherence to the Jewish faith and traditions, preferring laughter to sanctimonious attitudes. I refused to learn a trade which would have bound me down to routine. I chose to mix with all and sundry of the poorer classes, drank with them, knew prostitutes, and enjoyed talking, arguing, laughing, and being bone idle. When I needed money, I went into the vineyards for a day or two or took other jobs paying me enough to eat and drink and give me the leisure I craved.
For all my many shortcomings as a human being, my careless, easy, indolent attitudes, my self-will and ego-centric determination to think my own thoughts irrespective of what others might try to tell me, I cared about people very deeply.
I was deeply emotional. In your present speech forms, you would call me ‘over-reactive’, ‘over-emotional’. I had a warm, compassionate, empathetic heart. I was deeply moved in the presence of sickness, affliction and poverty. I was a staunch supporter of what you call the ‘underdog’. You might say I was a ‘people’s person’. I lived with them closely, in a spirit of comradery; I listened to their woes, understood, and cared.
It is important to understand my true origins and my early youthful characteristics because these were the goads which pushed and prodded me into eventual Christhood.
What I most strongly detested and resisted was the misery – the sickness and poverty – I saw around me.
It infuriated me – and I became passionately, vociferously angry to see people dressed in rags, thin and hungry, diseased, crippled, yet heartlessly browbeaten by Jewish leaders who burdened them with meaningless traditional laws and observances, threatening them with Jehovah’s punishment if they did not obey. I declared to all who would listen to me that these poor people had enough to bear without being crushed by senseless measures restrictive of pleasure. What was the point of life at all if we were not born to be happy?
I refused to believe in a ‘just’ God according to Jewish traditions. The biblical prophetic warnings of Jehovah’s ‘judgment and anger’ against people, disgusted me. People were human, after all, doing whatever their human natures prompted them to do. They had been born sinful – so why should they be judged and condemned to lives of suffering and poverty because they had broken the Ten Commandments? Where was the sense in such statements?
To me, this Jewish belief depicted an illogical, cruel ‘God’, and I wanted nothing to do with ‘Him’. It seemed to me that if such a ‘deity’ existed, it followed that mankind was doomed to eternal misery. The simplicity and freedom I found on the hillsides, the plains, the lakes and the mountains, refreshed my inmost spirit and quietened my angry murmuring against the Jewish God. Consequently, I refused to believe a word that the Jewish Elders tried to teach me.
However, during my middle twenties, a new line of questioning took possession of my thoughts. As I walked ever more frequently alone in the hills, my rebellion was gradually replaced by an all-consuming longing to know and understand the true nature of THAT which must surely inspire and respire through creation.
I reviewed my lifestyle and saw what suffering my actions had caused my mother and many other people. Although I felt such deep compassion for the weak and suffering, my rebellious nature had prompted much thoughtless and selfish behavior towards my family. My underlying love for them now welled up in me and I found myself becoming equally rebellious against my past behavior. I heard talk about John the Baptist and the work he was doing amongst the Jews who came to listen to his words even from Jerusalem. I decided to visit him to be baptized myself.
On my way to the River Jordan, I felt exhilarated at the prospect of being baptized and starting a new life. I knew that, despite my unruly emotionalism, I had also been born with a keen intelligence and a gift for insightful, impressive debate which I had used willfully and negatively, leading people into unruly arguments. I had thrown my talents away by pursuing a life of self-will, idleness and pleasure. As a result, I had forfeited all respect from others; neither did I possess any self-respect. For the first time, I found this to be intolerable. It occurred to me that, in the future, I could and must put my natural gifts to better use. Instead of just making a noise, perhaps I could find a way to lighten the burdens of those whom I so deeply pitied. Up to that time, I had been of little practical use to anyone.
8. My Baptism
When I entered the water in the River Jordan to be baptized by John, I expected to feel nothing more than relief that I had, for once, taken a positive step in reforming my behavior. I expected to feel a new determination to go home and astonish my mother and neighbors with my new kindly attitudes towards them.
What really happened when John baptized me was an experience completely different to anything I had ever thought possible.
I felt a great wave of tremendous energy surge through my body. I was literally stunned by it. As I staggered out of the river, I felt myself elevated in consciousness in a most extraordinary way. A great inflow of glowing happiness uplifted me to a state of ecstasy. I was enraptured and aware of a great Light.
Stumbling, I moved away from the river and walked and walked, not knowing where I was going. I continued on, unseeingly, into the desert.
Please note! MY SIX WEEKS IN THE DESERT were a time of total inner cleansing of my human consciousness. Old attitudes, beliefs and prejudices were dissolved.
The time has come for me to share with receptive people all that I felt, ‘saw’, realized and understood.
[To help people abandon the age-old imaginative pictures of a biblical ‘deity’ I will avoid referring to ‘God’ by that word and will use a terminology designed to stretch your minds to embrace what ‘really is’ beyond all earthly form, color, sound, emotion, and comprehension. This terminology will become ever more meaningful as you persevere in meditation and prayer.]
9. What I Felt When in the Desert
I was uplifted into inner radiant light and felt vibrant and wondrously alive with power. I was filled with ecstasy and joy and I knew beyond all doubt that THIS POWER was the true Creator out of which all created things had been given their being.
This glorious interior harmony, peace, and sense of perfect fulfilment, needing nothing more to be added to that beautiful moment, was the very nature of the Reality – the Creative Power – giving Life to creation and existence.
10. What I ‘Saw’, Realized, Perceived When in the Desert
I was lifted into another dimension of conscious perception, which enabled me to see the TRUTH concerning life and existence. I saw, lucidly and clearly, what was real and what was false in man’s thinking.
I realized that this ‘Creative Power’ I was experiencing was infinite, eternal, universal, filling all space beyond sky, oceans, earth, and all living things. I saw IT was MIND POWER.
IT was the CREATIVE POWER of MIND.
There was no point where this ‘DIVINE CREATIVE POWER OF MIND’ was not.
I realized that human mind was drawn from DIVINE CREATIVE MIND but was only a candle lit by the sun.
At times, my human sight was so spiritually heightened, I could see through rocks, earth, sand. These now appeared to be only a ‘shimmer of tiny ‘motes’.
I realized that nothing was really solid!
When I had moments of doubt that this could be so, the changes in the phenomena stopped taking place, and much later, I discovered that:
My thoughts, if strongly imbued with CONVICTION could effect changes in the ‘shimmer of motes’ (what science presently calls electrically charged particles) and therefore produce changes in the appearance of the rock or whatever I was studying. It was at this point, that I came to realize the powerful effect that CONVICTION or unwavering FAITH had on the environment when stating a command or even a belief.
What was even more startling was my mind-opening, ‘cosmic consciousness’ realization that all I had been witnessing was really the ‘Creative Power’ of Divine Mind Itself made visible in the ‘shimmer of tiny motes’.
Not only this, its appearance could be profoundly affected by the activity of human thought.
I realized there was nothing solid in the universe, everything visible was manifesting a differing ‘state of consciousness’ which determined the composition and form of the ‘shimmer of motes’.
Therefore, all outer form was an expression of the inner consciousness.
LIFE and CONSCIOUSNESS, I realized, were one and the same thing.
It was impossible to say ‘This is LIFE’ and ‘That is CONSCIOUSNESS’.
Consciousness was Life, and Life was Consciousness and was the ‘Creative Power’ of both; ‘DIVINE UNIVERSAL MIND’ beyond, within and behind the universe.
I realized that people placed highest importance on individuality and form. They could not imagine mind or intelligence operating in any effective way other than through the medium of individual form. Because of this, the Jews had created a mental image of a vast supreme being, having all the attributes, positive and negative, of a human being. Thus was it possible for Prophets to believe in – and speak of – Jehovah’s anger, threats of punishment, visitations of sickness and plagues in response to human waywardness. But these mental images, I realized were myths. They did not exist.
I perceived that, in any dimension of existence, it was the MIND – the intelligence exhibited – which was the all-important factor relating to creation and man, himself. Therefore, Genesis should be rewritten: Before creation – was UNIVERSAL MIND – Creative Power behind and within creation itself.
Having ‘seen’ so clearly, beyond all dispute, that the Creative Power of UNIVERSAL MIND was everywhere, within the infinity of the skies and active within earthly forms as well, I was inwardly directed to look around me and saw only gravel and rock. Then, suddenly I was presented with a picture of a beautiful land in which were growing every conceivable plant, shrub, and tree, even birds flitted in the trees, and animals grazed the grass.
Watching this vision with amazement, I ‘saw’ that plants and trees, every one of them – and yes, even birds and animals, in reality, were composed of hundreds of communities of infinitely tiny entities (your modern scientists call them ‘cells’) working continuously, in an entirely harmonious spirit of cooperation, to produce the substance and various organs of the inner system and the outer appearance of the completed living entity.
I contemplated this wonderful activity for a long time, although time was no longer of any importance to me. As I gazed and gazed, I thought, ‘Who would have guessed that within the outer covering of fur, feather, skin, there was such intense activity within tiny communities of entities, working together to give life, form, nutrition, healing, protection, endurance to the bodies of so many different species.
It was the intelligently performed WORK which attracted my attention.
Therefore, WORK, I realized, was an integral part of the Creative Power Activity from the very least ‘entity’ (cell) within living systems to the most advanced entity in the universe – man himself. In the systems of all living things, all the labor was under the direction, ultimately, of the Divine Creative Power, in whom were the plans and designs of creation. I saw that these plans and designs were, in reality, ‘consciousness forms’ and could be termed WORDS since each WORD signifies a very special ‘consciousness’ form.
11. The Word
Hence the original WORD in ‘Creative Power Consciousness’ becomes manifested in the visible world. The WORD, and therefore the ‘Consciousness Pattern’ remains within the DIVINE CREATIVE MIND continually bringing forth its own.
I could ‘see’ then, that everything in the universe, did ‘live, move and have its being’ in the Creative Power of UNIVERSAL MIND which was infinite and eternal and was the only true Reality behind all manifestations of individualized form.
I was filled with praise that everything in the world was out of, and yet within this superlative Creative Power of Divine Mind. I marveled at all this secret activity forever taking place in all living things, including human bodies, and wondered how it was that such infinitely small units worked intelligently according to specified plans to produce, unerringly, the proposed form – tree trunk, leaf, flower, fruit, insects, birds, animals and human bodies.
I then realized, even more clearly, that the ‘Creative Power’ was the very Source of all ‘intelligent activity’ in the universe.
If mankind possessed intelligence, it was only because he had drawn it from the ‘Universal Source of All Being’.
Furthermore, I was shown that the Divine Creative Power always worked according to certain fundamental and exact principles of construction.
I was shown that:
Just as men have clear characteristics and a well-defined ‘nature’ in their self-presentation to the world at large, so did the CREATIVE POWER possess a clearly defined ‘Nature’ – distinct characteristics – which could be clearly recognized in the manner that all living things, plants, animals, birds, men, were constructed and maintained.
I ‘saw’ that these ‘principles’ and ‘characteristics’, clearly observable in the process of creation, were set, invariable LAWS governing all of existence.
