The Sound of Silence

Sometimes~
When I have been deep in the depths
of me~
My mind spinning down and down
And out beyond eternity~
I wonder
How much time has drifted b y~
Time that moves
Like a slow winding river of night
And Light~
Time
That flows through the ribbon of
My mind
Like wandering wisdom
Waiting to be found.
And I recall
That sounds of silence~
Sounds
Like distant drums
Beating a lonely echo...
But I have been beyond
Time and space~
I have stood
In the stillness
Of God's Heart~
But there was no beat, no sound-
There was only the ~
Reaches of Clear Light
Pulsating against
The Eternal Bliss~
Bursting
And glowing
Out going~
'Til
I am
God!

Question/s, discussion/s

1In the beginning of God's preparing the heavens and the earth --

2the earth hath existed waste and void, and darkness on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God fluttering on the face of the waters,

3and God saith, `Let light be;' and light is.

Most people say that God created all things perfect. That everything that God has created is good. That God only creates, manifest himself into matter. Then where did the "waste and void and darkness come from ? that is on the earth's face of the deep ?"

"God saith"... Did God say with a sound ?, a manifested noise, sound? Did he say this from a unmanifested Spirit ?, a Divine Mind? How does a Spirit that is the Source of All in All have relationship with Himself / Itself ? How does the invisible manifest, individualize to share / love himself with himself ?

Spirit Life,,,.... Having found ourselves in the form of a man, what now ?
Consider all matter Evil ? Consider the Source as wanting to express, manifest in matter ?

Thank You.........

Those Taught by God

Headline: Ecclesiastes 3:9. What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? 10. I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. 11. He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

So you say you want to find God and learn the real truth! No man can find God and learn the real truth except by invitation from the Father. An invitation from the Father is not an altar call from a preacher in a church. That is a call from a man to join a church and learn the doctrine of men.

Matthew 11:25. At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. 26. Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight. 27. All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

Jesus said, Few find the way, because Father calls only a few from among men in each generation to teach them about Himself and what He has proposed for His family. God never planned to reveal the great truths to all men while they remain slaves in spiritual Egypt (this world). But all men will learn their spiritual heritage when they leave this world and enter Heaven, the real promise land.

Isaiah 46:3. Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb: 4. And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.

Joel 2:32. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.

Psalm 147:4. He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

Isaiah 48:13. Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.

In the meantime before men are called to rise from this earth, He has given us roles to play while in this life. Some play roles as vessels for unclean use. These persons will be victims of demonic control all their lifetime on earth. Men call them sinners, when they are really prodigal sons. A few men are good vessels for clean use. These will be those called by the Father to purge their ways, to learn of Him, and to exhibit righteous conduct.

2 Timothy 2:20. But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

Romans 9:18. Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. 19. Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? 20. Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? 21. Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? 22. What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: 23. And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, 24. Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

My sheep hear my voice and they follow me! When Father speaks to a man from above, He has many ways to get that persons attention. Saul of Tarsus was knocked on his rear-end and Father got his attention. Samuel heard a voice calling his name when he was a little boy under Elis care. Some hear a voice and feel an urgency in their heart causing them to seek upward, not laterally toward human preachers. When Father calls a man, that man knows it is not another man calling him. He directs his mind above to the Source calling him.

Philippians 2:13. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Once Father has His students attention, He teaches him and directs his path.

John 3:27. John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

Matthew 20: 4. And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.

Matthew 11:27 and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

John 6:44. No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

John 14:23. Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

To learn of God one must be invited to the Feast above. Ones head (mind) is in Heavenly places. And cares for this world and its offerings become secondary. If you look at our Headline, it says He has set the world in their hearts so that men cannot find out the things of God. We are advised us to love not the world.

Luke 14:16. Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: 17. And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. 18. And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused. 19. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused. 20. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. 21. So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. 22. And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. 23. And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. 24. For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.

In the above parable God sends His angels to bid men to sup with Him. But look at the excuses men use to put off these holy spirits. The world is set firmly in their hearts as well as the cares of this life. That true Supper occurs in Heaven. All men in every generation eventually get a call to participate face-to-face. But few men in this life sup with God and still abide among men. Those few who do sup are totally under Gods control and He manages every aspect of their thought and conduct.

1 John 2:15. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Matthew 6:19. Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

John 15:18. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. 19. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

John 15:16. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

To find God one must get the world out of his heart (mind) and that is not an easy task when Father set the world in their heart. The truth is He must purge the world out of the students heart. It is written:

Jeremiah 29:11. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 12. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 13. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. 14. And I will be found of you, saith the Lord

Proverbs 16:1. The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord.

Psalm 37:23. The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

John 6:65. And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

Psalm 119:99. I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. 100. I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. 101. I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. 102. I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

Since Father weighs and measures hearts, He knows when a person has searched for Him with all his heart.

Amos 4:13. For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, the Lord, The God of hosts, is his name.

Jeremiah 17:9. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10. I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

Those who make God the treasure of their hearts and purge the world from it will find Father right there in their mind. That student will have a telephone in his bosom and he can go in and out of the Door (Jesus) and find (pasture) spiritual food. Angels assigned to him (holy spirits) will lead him in all truth, Obadiah 1:21. These few are the ones who actually keep the First Great Commandment making Father their treasure and number One in their life. There is a caveat to this. They must love all men as they love themselves, and that is the Second Great Commandment. If you want any man burned in hellfire with devils for any reason, YOU DO NOT MEASURE UP! It is because you do not want to be burned in hellfire, yet you want that for your brother enslaved by devils. You will not be taught by the Father with such a flaw. You will have to purge your heart of that defect. When it is gone, Father will know it.

Glorify God!

God did it!

PLAYING THE COSMIC GAME

RonSigler — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 16:16:30 GMT

So then. If you awaken from this illusion, and you understand that black implies white, self implies other, life implies death--or shall I say, death implies life--you can conceive yourself. Not conceive, but FEEL yourself, not as a stranger in the world, not as someone here on sufferance, on probation, not as something that has arrived here by fluke, but you can begin to feel your own existence as absolutely fundamental. What you are basically, deep, deep down, far, far in, is simply the fabric and structure of existence itself. So, say in Hindu mythology, they say that the world is the drama of God. God is not something in Hindu mythology with a white beard that sits on a throne, that has royal perogatives. God in Indian mythology is the self, 'Satchitananda.' Which means 'sat,' that which is, 'chit,' that which is consciousness; that which is 'ananda' is bliss. In other words, what exists, reality itself is gorgeous, it is the fullness of total joy. Wowee! And all those stars, if you look out in the sky, is a firework display like you see on the fourth of July, which is a great occasion for celebration; the universe is a celebration, it is a fireworks show to celebrate that existence is. Wowee.

And then they say, 'But, however, there's no point in just sustaining bliss.' Let's suppose you were able, every night, to dream any dream you wanted to dream, and that you could for example have the power to dream in one night 75 years worth of time. Or any length of time you wanted to have. And you would, naturally, as you began on this adventure of dreams, fulfill all your wishes. You would have every kind of pleasure you could conceive. And after several nights of 75 years of total pleasure each, you would say 'Well, that was pretty great. But now let's have a surprise. Let's have a dream which isn't under control, where something is going to happen to me that I don't know what it's going to be.' And you would dig that, and come out of it and say 'That was a close shave, now wasn't it?' Then you would get more and more adventurous, and you would make further and further gambles as to what you would dream, and finally you would dream where you are now. You would dream the dream of the life that you are actually living today. That would be within the infinite multiplicity of the choices you would have. Of playing that you weren't God. Because the whole nature of the godhead, according to this idea, is to play that he's not. The first thing that he says to himself is 'Man, get lost,' because he gives himself away. The nature of love is self-abandonment, not clinging to oneself. Throwing yourself out, for instance as in basketball; you're always getting rid of the ball. You say to the other fellow 'Have a ball.' See? And that keeps things moving. That's the nature of life.

So in this idea, then, everybody is fundamentally the ultimate reality. Not God in a politically kingly sense, but God in the sense of being the self, the deep-down basic whatever there is. And you're all that, only you're pretending you're not. And it's perfectly OK to pretend you're not, to be perfectly convinced, because this is the whole notion of drama. When you come into the theater, there is an arch, and a stage, and down there is the audience. Everybody assumes their seats in the theater, gone to see a comedy, a tragedy, a thriller, whatever it is, and they all know as they come in and pay their admissions, that what is going to happen on the stage is not for real. But the actors have a conspiracy against this, because they're going to try and persuade the audience that what is happening on the stage IS for real. They want to get everybody sitting on the edge of their chairs, they want you terrified, or crying, or laughing. Absolutely captivated by the drama. And if a skillful human actor can take in an audience and make people cry, think what the cosmic actor can do. Why he can take himself in completely. He can play so much for real that he thinks he really is. Like you sitting in this room, you think you're really here. Well, you've persuaded yourself that way. You've acted it so damn well that you KNOW that this is the real world. But you're playing it. As well, the audience and the actor as one. Because behind the stage is the green room, offscene, where the actors take off their masks. Do you know that the word 'person' means 'mask'? The 'persona' which is the mask worn by actors in Greco-Roman drama, because it has a megaphone-type mouth which throws the sound out in an open-air theater. So the 'per'--through--'sona'--what the sound comes through--that's the mask. How to be a real person. How to be a genuine fake. So the 'dramatis persona' at the beginning of a play is the list of masks that the actors will wear. And so in the course of forgetting that this world is a drama, the word for the role, the word for the mask has come to mean who you are genuinely. The person. The proper person. Incidentally, the word 'parson' is derived from the word 'person.' The 'person' of the village. The 'person' around town, the parson.

So anyway, then, this is a drama, and what I want you to is-- I'm not trying to sell you on this idea in the sense of converting you to it; I want you to play with it. I want you to think of its possibilities. I'm not trying to prove it, I'm just putting it forward as a possibility of life to think about. So then, this means that you're not victims of a scheme of things, of a mechanical world, or of an autocratic god. The life you're living is what YOU have put yourself into. Only you don't admit it, because you want to play the game that it's happened to you. In other words, I got mixed up in this world; I had a father who got hot pants over a girl, and she was my mother, and because he was just a horny old man, and as a result of that, I got born, and I blame him for it and say 'Well that's your fault; you've got to look after me,' and he says 'I don't see why I should look after you; you're just a result.' But let's suppose we admit that I really wanted to get born, and that I WAS the ugly gleam in my father's eye when he approached my mother. That was me. I was desire. And I deliberately got involved in this thing. Look at it that way instead. And that really, even if I got myself into an awful mess, and I got born with syphilis, and the great Siberian itch, and tuberculosis in a Nazi concentration camp, nevertheless this was a game, which was a very far out play. It was a kind of cosmic masochism. But I did it.

Isn't that an optimal game rule for life? Because if you play life on the supposition that you're a helpless little puppet that got involved. Or you played on the supposition that it's a frightful, serious risk, and that we really ought to do something about it, and so on, it's a drag. There's no point in going on living unless we make the assumption that the situation of life is optimal. That really and truly we're all in a state of total bliss and delight, but we're going to pretend we aren't just for kicks. In other words, you play non-bliss in order to be able to experience bliss. And you can go as far out in non-bliss as you want to go. And when you wake up, it'll be great. You know, you can slam yourself on the head with a hammer because it's so nice when you stop. And it makes you realize how great things are when you forget that's the way it is. And that's just like black and white: you don't know black unless you know white; you don't know white unless you know black. This is simply fundamental.

So then, here's the drama. My metaphysics, let me be perfectly frank with you, are that there the central self, you can call it God, you can call it anything you like, and it's all of us. It's playing all the parts of all being whatsoever everywhere and anywhere. And it's playing the game of hide and seek with itself. It gets lost, it gets involved in the farthest-out adventures, but in the end it always wakes up and comes back to itself. And when you're ready to wake up, you're going to wake up, and if you're not ready you're going to stay pretending that you're just a 'poor little me.' And since you're all here and engaged in this sort of enquiry and listening to this sort of lecture, I assume you're all in the process of waking up. Or else you're pleasing yourselves with some kind of flirtation with waking up which you're not serious about. But I assume that you are maybe not serious, but sincere, that you are ready to wake up.

So then, when you're in the way of waking up, and finding out who you are, you meet a character called a guru, as the Hindus say 'the teacher,' 'the awakener.' And what is the function of a guru? He's the man that looks you in the eye and says 'Oh come off it. I know who you are.' You come to the guru and say 'Sir, I have a problem. I'm unhappy, and I want to get one up on the universe. I want to become enlightened. I want spiritual wisdom.' The guru looks at you adn says 'Who are you?' You know Sri-Ramana-Maharshi, that great Hindu sage of modern times? People used to come to him and say 'Master, who was I in my last incarnation?' As if that mattered. And he would say 'Who is asking the question?' And he'd look at you and say, go right down to it, 'You're looking at me, you're looking out, and you're unaware of what's behind your eyes. Go back in and find out who you are, where the question comes from, why you ask.' And if you've looked at a photograph of that man--I have a gorgeous photograph of him; I look by it every time I go out the front door. And I look at those eyes, and the humor in them; the lilting laugh that says 'Oh come off it. Shiva, I recognize you. When you come to my door and say `I'm so-and-so,' I say `Ha-ha, what a funny way God has come on today.''

So eventually--there are all sorts of tricks of course that gurus play. They say 'Well, we're going to put you through the mill.' And the reason they do that is simply that you won't wake up until you feel you've paid a price for it. In other words, the sense of guilt that one has. Or the sense of anxiety. It's simply the way one experiences keeping the game of disguise going on. Do you see that? Supposing you say 'I feel guilty.' Christianity makes you feel guilty for existing. That somehow the very fact that you exist is an affront. You are a fallen human being. I remember as a child when we went to the serves of the church on Good Friday. They gave us each a colored postcard with Jesus crucified on it, and it said underneath 'This I have done for thee. What doest thou for me?' You felt awful. YOU had nailed that man to the cross. Because you eat steak, you have crucified Christ. Mythra. It's the same mystery. And what are you going to do about that? 'This I have done for thee, what doest thou for me?' You feel awful that you exist at all. But that sense of guilt is the veil across the sanctuary. 'Don't you DARE come in!' In all mysteries, when you are going to be initiated, there's somebody saying 'Ah-ah-ah, don't you come in. You've got to fulfill this requirement and that requirement, THEN we'll let you in.' And so you go through the mill. Why? Because you're saying to yourself 'I won't wake up until I deserve it. I won't wake up until I've made it difficult for me to wake up. So I invent for myself an eleborate sytem of delaying my waking up. I put myself through this test and that test, and when I convince myself it's sufficiently arduous, THEN I at last admit to myself who I really am, and draw aside the veil and realize that after all, when all is said and done, I am that I am, which is the name of god.'

THE WORLD WILL NOT END IN 2012

By Carlos Barrios

CARLOS BARRIOS was born into a Spanish family on El
Altiplano, the highlands of Guatemala. His home was in
Huehuetenango, also the dwelling place of the Maya Mam
tribe. With other Maya and other indigenous tradition
keepers, the Mam carry part of the old ways on Turtle
Island (North America). They are keepers of time,
authorities on remarkable calendars that are ancient,
elegant and relevant.

Mr. Barrios is a historian, an anthropologist and
investigator. After studying with traditional elders
for 25 years since the age of 19, he has also became a
Mayan Ajq'ij, a ceremonial priest and spiritual guide,
Eagle Clan.

Years ago, along with his brother, Gerardo, Carlos
initiated an investigation into the different Mayan
calendars. He studied with many teachers. He says his
brother Gerardo interviewed nearly 600 traditional
Mayan elders to widen their scope of knowledge.

"Anthropologists visit the temple sites," Mr. Barrios
says, "and read the inscriptions and make up stories
about the Maya, but they do not read the signs
correctly. It's just their imagination... Other people
write about prophecy in the name of the Maya. They say
that the world will end in December 2012. The Mayan
elders are angry with this. The world will not end. It
will be transformed. The indigenous have the
calendars, and know how to accurately interpret it,
not others."

The Mayan Calendars comprehension of time, seasons,
and cycles has proven itself to be vast and
sophisticated. The Maya understand 17 different
calendars, some of them charting time accurately over
a span of more than ten million years. The calendar
that has steadily drawn global attention since 1987 is
called the Tzolk'in or Cholq'ij. Devised ages ago and
based on the cycle of the Pleiades, it is still held
as sacred. With the indigenous calendars, native
people have kept track of important turning points in
history. For example, the day keepers who study the
calendars identified an important day in the year One
Reed, Ce Acatal, as it was called by the Mexicans.
That was the day when an important ancestor was
prophesied to return, "coming like a butterfly." In
the western calendar, the One Reed date correlates to
Easter Sunday, April 21, 1519 the day that Hernando
Cortez and his fleet of 11 Spanish galleons arrived
from the East at what is today called Vera Cruz,
Mexico.

When the Spanish ships came toward shore, native
people were waiting and watching to see how it would
go. The billowing sails of the ships did indeed remind
the scouts of butterflies skimming the ocean surface.

In this manner was a new era initiated, an era they
had anticipated through their calendars. The Maya
termed the new era the Nine Bolomtikus, or nine Hells
of 52 years each. As the nine cycles unfolded, land
and freedom were taken from the native people. Disease
and disrespect dominated. What began with the arrival
of Cortez, lasted until August 16, 1987 - a date many
people recall as Harmonic Convergence. Millions of
people took advantage of that date to make ceremony in
sacred sites, praying for a smooth transition to a new
era, the World of the Fifth Sun.

From that 1987 date until now, Mr. Barrios says, we
have been in a time when the right arm of the
materialistic world is disappearing, slowly but
inexorably. We are at the cusp of the era when peace
begins, and people live in harmony with Mother Earth.
We are no longer in the World of the Fourth Sun, but
we are not yet in the World of the Fifth Sun. This is
the time in-between, the time of transition.

As we pass through transition there is a colossal,
global convergence of environmental destruction,
social chaos, war, and ongoing Earth changes.
All this, Mr. Barrios says, was foreseen via the
simple, spiral mathematics of the Mayan calendars. "It
will change," Mr. Barrios observes. "Everything will
change." He said Mayan Daykeepers view the Dec. 21,
2012 date as a rebirth, the start of the World of the
Fifth Sun. It will be the start of a new era resulting
from and signified by the solar meridian crossing the
galactic equator, and the earth aligning itself with
the center of the galaxy.

At sunrise on December 21, 2012 for the first time in
26,000 years the Sun rises to conjunct the
intersection of the Milky Way and the plane of the
ecliptic. This cosmic cross is considered to be an
embodiment of the Sacred Tree, The Tree of Life, a
tree remembered in all the world's spiritual
traditions. Some observers say this alignment with the
heart of the galaxy in 2012 will open a channel for
cosmic energy to flow through the Earth, cleansing it
and all that dwells upon it, raising all to a higher
level of vibration.

This process has already begun, Mr. Barrios suggested.

"Change is accelerating now, and it will continue to
accelerate." If the people of the Earth can get to
this 2012 date in good shape, without having destroyed
too much of the Earth, Mr. Barrios said, we will rise
to a new, higher level.

But to get there we must transform enormously powerful
forces that seek to block the way.

A Picture of the Road Ahead

From his understanding of the Mayan tradition and the
calendars, Mr. Barrios offered a picture of where we
are at and what may lie on the road ahead: The date
specified in the calendar Winter Solstice in the year
2012 does not mark the end of the world. Many outside
people writing about the Mayan calendar sensationalize
this date, but they do not know. The ones who know are
the indigenous elders who are entrusted with keeping
the tradition.

"Humanity will continue," he contends, "but in a
different way. Material structures will change. From
this we will have the opportunity to be more human."

We are living in the most important era of the Mayan
calendars and prophecies. All the prophecies of the
world, all the traditions, are converging now. There
is no time for games. The spiritual ideal of this era
is action. Many powerful souls have reincarnated in
this era, with a lot of power. This is true on both
sides, the light and the dark. High magic is at work
on both sides.

Things will change, but it is up to the people how
difficult or easy it is for the changes to come about.
The economy now is a fiction. The first five-year
stretch of transition from August 1987 to August 1992
was the beginning of the destruction of the material
world. We have progressed ten years deeper into the
transition phase by now, and many of the so-called
sources of financial stability are in fact hollow.

The banks are weak. This is a delicate moment for
them. They could crash globally if we don't pay
attention. If the banks crash ... then we will be
forced to rely on the land and our skills. The
monetary systems will be in chaos, and we must then
rely on our direct relationship with the Earth for our
food and shelter. The North and South Poles are both
breaking up. The level of the water in the oceans is
going to rise. But at the same time land in the ocean,
especially near Cuba, is also going to rise.

A Call for Fusion

As he met with audiences in Santa Fe, Mr. Barrios told
a story about the most recent Mayan New Year
ceremonies in Guatemala. He said that one respected
Mam elder, who lives all year in a solitary mountain
cave, journeyed to Chichicastenango to speak with the
people at the ceremony. The elder delivered a simple,
direct message. He called for human beings to come
together in support of life and light. Right now each
person and group is going his or her own way. The
elder of the mountains said there is hope if the
people of the light can come together and unite in
some way.

Reflecting on this, Mr. Barrios explained: "We live in
a world of polarity: day and night, man and woman,
positive and negative. Light and darkness need each
other. They are a balance. Just now the dark side is
very strong, and very clear about what they want. They
have their vision and their priorities clearly held,
and also their hierarchy. They are working in many
ways so that we will be unable to connect with the
spiral Fifth World in 2012."

"On the light side everyone thinks they are the most
important, that their own understandings, or their
group's understandings, are the key. There's a
diversity of cultures and opinions, so there is
competition, diffusion, and no single focus."

As Mr. Barrios sees it, the dark side works to block
fusion through denial and materialism. It also works
to destroy those who are working with the light to get
the Earth to a higher level. They like the energy of
the old, declining Fourth World, the materialism. They
do not want it to change.
They do not want fusion. They want to stay at this
level, and are afraid of the next level.

The dark power of the declining Fourth World cannot be
destroyed or overpowered. It's too strong and clear
for that, and that is the wrong strategy. The dark can
only be transformed when confronted with simplicity
and open-heartedness. This is what leads to fusion, a
key concept for the World of the Fifth Sun.

Mr. Barrios said the emerging era of the Fifth Sun
will call attention to a much-overlooked element.
Whereas the four traditional elements of earth, air,
fire and water have dominated various epochs in the
past, there will be a fifth element to reckon with in
the time of the Fifth Sun: ether. The dictionary
defines ether as the rarefied element of the Heavens.

Ether is a medium. It permeates all space and
transmits waves of energy in a wide range of
frequencies, from cell phones to human auras. What is
"ethereal" is related to the regions beyond earth: the
heavens.

Ether the element of the Fifth Sun is celestial and
lacking in material substance, but is no less real
than wood, stone or flesh. "Within the context of
ether there can be a fusion of the polarities," Mr.
Barrios said. "No more darkness or light in the
people, but an uplifted fusion. But right now the
realm of darkness is not interested in this. They are
organized to block it.

They seek to unbalance the Earth and its environment
so we will be unready for the alignment in 2012. We
need to work together for peace, and balance with the
other side. We need to take care of the Earth that
feeds and shelters us. We need to put our entire mind
and heart into pursuing unity and fusion now, to
confront the other side and preserve life."

To be Ready for this Moment in History

Mr. Barrios told his audiences in Santa Fe that we are
at a critical moment of world history. "We are
disturbed," he said. "We can't play anymore. Our
planet can be renewed or ravaged. Now is the time to
awaken and take action."

"Everyone is needed. You are not here for no reason.
Everyone who is here now has an important purpose.
This is a hard, but a special time. We have the
opportunity for growth, but we must be ready for this
moment in history."

Mr. Barrios offered a number of suggestions to help
people walk in balance through the years ahead. "The
prophesied changes are going to happen," he said "but
our attitude and actions determine how harsh or mild
they are."

We need to act, to make changes, and to elect people
to represent us who understand and who will take
political action to respect the Earth.

Meditation and spiritual practice are good, but also
action. It's very important to be clear about who you
are, and also about your relation to the Earth.

Develop yourself according to your own tradition and
the call of your heart. But remember to respect
differences, and strive for unity. Eat wisely. A lot
of food is corrupt in either subtle or gross ways. Pay
attention to what you are taking into your body. Learn
to preserve food, and to conserve energy.

Learn some good breathing techniques, so you have
mastery of your breath.

Be clear. Follow a tradition with great roots. It is
not important what tradition, your heart will tell
you, but it must have great roots. We live in a world
of energy. An important task at this time is to learn
to sense or see the energy of everyone and everything:
people, plants, animals. This becomes increasingly
important as we draw close to the World of the Fifth
Sun, for it is associated with the element ether - the
realm where energy lives and weaves.

Go to the sacred places of the Earth to pray for
peace, and have respect for the Earth which gives us
our food, clothing, and shelter. We need to reactivate
the energy of these sacred places. That is our work.

One simple but effective prayer technique is to light
a white or baby-blue colored candle. Think a moment in
peace. Speak your intention to the flame and send the
light of it on to the leaders who have the power to
make war or peace.

We Have Work to Do

According to Mr. Barrios this is a crucially important
moment for humanity, and for earth. Each person is
important. If you have incarnated into this era, you
have spiritual work to do balancing the planet. He
said the elders have opened the doors so that other
races can come to the Mayan world to receive the
tradition. The Maya have long appreciated and
respected that there are other colors, other races,
and other spiritual systems. "They know," he said,
"that the destiny of the Mayan world is related to the
destiny of the whole world."

"The greatest wisdom is in simplicity," Mr. Barrios
advised before leaving Santa Fe. "Love, respect,
tolerance, sharing, gratitude, forgiveness. It's not
complex or elaborate. The real knowledge is free. It's
encoded in your DNA. All you need is within you. Great
teachers have said that from the beginning. Find your
heart, and you will find your way."

WE'VE FORGOTTEN

RonSigler — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 22:26:29 GMT

I DONT RECALL WHO SAID THIS BUT I WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH ALL OF YOU.

We began as mineral.

We emerged into plant life and into the animal state, and then to being human. As always we have forgotten our former states, except in early spring, when we dimly recall being green again.

This is how a young person turns toward a teacher, how a baby leans toward the breast, without knowing the secret of its desire, yet turning instinctively.

So man is being led along an evolving course through this migration of intelligences, and though we seem to be sleeping, there is an inner wakefulness that directs the dream.

It will eventually startle us back to the truth of who we are.

Solomon-like Glory

30, 60, and 100 Fold Fulfillment

I know that most are familar with the thought that the number 3 shows divine completion or resurrection. And why do we suppose that is?

Two straight lines cannot possibly enclose any space. Three lines are required to form a plane figure ...length, breadth, and height are necessary to form a solid. And three is the symbol of the cube, or that which has solid contents, just as two is the symbol of the square. So three stands for that which is solid, real, substantial, complete, and entire.

Everything that is considered to be complete is marked with the number three.

God's attributes are: omniscience(all knowing), omnipresence(everywhere present), and omnipotence (all powerful).

Spirit = I Am
Soul = I Am Conscious
Body = I Appear

What completes time: past, present, and future.

Thought, word and deed, the sum of our abilities.

Good, better and best, our knowledge of qualities.

Matter consists of the mineral, vegetable, and animal kingdom.

Noah's ark of salvation was three stories high and 300 hundred cubits long.

The Old Testment had a three-fold division referred to by Jesus himself as the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms.

Then there is the fullness of the Godhead: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

How about Christ as prophet, priest and king?

On the third day of creation the earth was caused to rise up out of the water, symbolical of resurrection life, just as Jesus' body (his earth) did not see corruption but was raised up on the third day and prophetically indicated that his corporate body would as well rise the third day.

Jesus told a parable about leaven being hidden in three measures of meal...we are that meal of three measures, body, soul and spirit....and he is the light that lights every man coming into this world. This "leaven" will eventually leaven the whole lump and God will be all, in all of every man's three measures.

There were three great feasts that completed the year that Israel was commanded to keep: Passover, Pentecost(Feast of Weeks), and Tabernacles.

There were three divisions of the tabernacle and the temple, Outer Court, Holy Place and Most Holy Place.

There were three veils in the tabernacle; the outer veil into the inner court, the inner veil into the Holy Place, and the innermost veil into the Holy of Holies.

http://www.kingsolomonsastonishingtemplesecrets.org/

Stevenhawk, I know that you have been blessed to share with us how in your meditations of the tabernacle you are opening yourself or making yourself available to the glory of God. Because of your interest (mine too) in the tablernacle, if you see this link, I thought it was most interesting that it shows how that Solomon's Temple forms the perfect man, while the Tabernacle in the Wilderness doesn't quite. But it was most necessary to be in this form, or a portable tabernacle, while we have been in our wilderness journey.

The word assures us that all things came out of God and all things come through God and all things consumate or end in Him. Rom 11:36 In our wilderness journey here we have been in our "through him" phase. For all things must pass through the Fire to be in agreement with the Fire....God the Consuming Fire.

What I see in all this is that our present "tabernacle", or our bodies, this temporal tent of ours yearns to be glorified with Solomon-like glory, that "our bodies of humiliation might be conformed to and be like the body of his glory." Phil. 3:21 When Solomon dedicated the temple upon its completion, the glory so filled this temple that "no man" could stand...that's man with a little 'm'. The MAN that is able to stand is that Glorious New Creation Man. \0/

It takes two or "three" witnesses to validate truth. Here are a few examples of the threes:
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob

Saul David and Solomon

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

Peter, James and John (Jesus three witnesses to his transfiguration, Peter represented faith, and James represented hope and John represented love...these three elements are necessary to be activated in us to experience transfiguration and that is why, I beleive, that Jesus particularly chose to take them with him to the high mountain)

Three parts of Israel's journey: out of Egypt, thru the wilderness, and into the Promised Land.

Completeness of divine judgement:
Numbered, weighed and divided: "God hath NUMBERED thy kingdom and finished it. Thou are WEIGHED in the balances and found wanting. Thy kingdom is DIVIDED and given to the Medes and Persians.

Faith, Hope and Love, repeated five times as the gifts of grace.

Three-fold nature of temptation:
The lust of the flesh
The lust of the eyes.
The pride of life.

Eve fulfilled each when tempted:
Tree good for food,
Pleasant to the eyes,
To be desired to make one wise.

Man's three great enemies:
The World, the flesh and the devil.

The three witnesses: the Spirit, the water and the blood.

The Divine Being:
Which was, and which is, and which is to come.

His people are:
Loved, cleansed and crowned.

The good ground produces:
some 30 fold growth
some 60
and some 100

Salvation, Holy Ghost Baptism, and Fullness of the spirit

Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification.

30 - spirit salvation
60- soul salvation
100 - body salvation

The reason, I believe, that the number 60 is used, is because it is a double of the 30 showing that the experience of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost is the "double portion" anointing. The numbers in and of themselves are not what's important but what they point to.

Jesus knew that he was talking to people who were familar with the OT and they knew the story of Elijah and how Elisha received the double-portion anointing. Jesus was anointed with the spirit without measure(the 100-fold reality...Why do I say this? Because all power both in heaven and earth was given to him....in his glorification being able to know everything that God knows and and to do everything that God can do).... and the word plainly teaches us that the Baptism of the Holy Ghost experience is our earnest or downpayment and guarantee of acquiring the 100-fold abilities that Jesus had. It is what enables us to press on into all the fullness of God as Jesus. It is not a graduation ceremony, in other words, but is an initiation into learning to know his voice and being taught by his spirit and being empowered. Some dispute this, I know, saying that if you are filled with the spirit that that means you are 100% filled. But until more room is made in the "inn" ie, your consciousness, you are not prepared to receive and birth what you are not yet in the place to receive. The infillings of God's spirit is ongoing. We are saved, we are being saved and we shall yet be saved.

The disciples were told by Jesus to go into the upper room to be filled...if they did not go where they were instructed and had not been in that place, they would have missed his appearing. In fact, of the 500 he appeared to after his resurrection, only 120 were moved to obedience. As we learn to know his voice and are obedient to it, we are moved into places of greater capacity or receptivity.

The spirit acknowledges our completness in him as 100%, or He calls those things that are not as though they are, but our souls or understandings are continually being expanded in ever greater measures, and my body, my creation, groans inwardly for its redemption from earthly sensualities and the grave which will reveal our 100-fold manifestation as a fullgrown God Man....that new creation species completed in him spirit, soul and body.

We each have had individual experiences in our spirit, soul and posssibly bodies being caught up into the heavens, but I know in my spirit that there is a corporate birthing of a 100-fold people to appear in this earth. This is the birthing of God's Firstborn Corporate Son that Jesus, the singular son only typified. These sons will be in the full grown image of their Father and, therefore, will also be enabled to bring many sons to glory, for they are life-giving spirits.

It will be the Quantum Leap made by a people that transcends all earthly limitations who come and go between realms as the Spirit directs them....those who go in unto the Lord and minister unto him garbed in their linen garments of righteousness and then come out unto the people after doffing their linen and donning their woolen garments (sheepskins)to appear among the people or the rest of the sheep. Eke.44

(some of the above three's have been gleaned from Bullinger's facts on numbers in scripture)

Peace, love and joy,

WE ARE ALL GOING HOME #2

RonSigler — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 03:37:25 GMT

WE ARE ALL GOING HOME #2

Once upon a time there was no time. There was also no space. There was only the Absolute that dwelt in unapproachable Light, and was that very Light. This Absolute was fully charged with Love. Within this all inclusive unconditional Love was everything that man calls virtue. There was unconditional Love. There was justification. There was forgiveness. There was understanding, there was all knowledge.

Within this fully charged eternal indestructible, incorruptible ONE was everything wonderful. There were two poles within this Absolute well call Negative and Positive. This Absolute was the only ONE that existed, for the explosion had not yet occurred, and of course the single eye can never see more then ONE anyway, because it has perfect perception. Now somewhere very, very deep within this Absolute there grew a desire.

This desire that grew was a mysterious spontaneous action. There was just a growing desire to express all that it was which was no-thing at this time. The fact that this Absolute was all there was while at the same time no-thing is a mystery to the logical human ego, but true none the less. The Absolute grew restless from the growing desire within it. The desire for expression was spontaneous and grew more powerful until there was a mighty travailing deep within the very heart of the Absolute.

It may very well have taken billions of years of earths time while negative and positive poles came clashing together to create the big bang which in turn sent billions of fragments out in all directions as seed which were many, many pieces of the Absolute for the expression of this ONE that man calls God. As above, so below this was the first experience of the cross. Questionif all creation came out of the Absolute, and obviously it did, how could all persons, places and things be anything other then many expressions of the ONE, the Asolute, that which we know of as GOD? This would also mean that you and I have inherent within us all that that God is.

A sound mind knows there are not two persons, or two things in existence all throughout the entire universe it knows only ONENESS. The mind that is insane sees good and evil. Its through no fault of mine that my programming is amiss. When still very young my five senses were programmed. As this took place it switched me to another frequency which resulted in loss of memory. As the five senses took in data I t resulted in the veil called ego. As my ego was formed the mask was created. Its the same principle as when Ive just awakened from a dream.

As I awake from any dream I am changing frequencies. The dream is just as real as the reality you are experiencing right this minute as you read what Ive written here. So I awaken and I recall some of the dream. Then a little time slips by and I only remember bits and pieces of the dream. Soon I forget that I even had a dream.

Upon awakening the ego, or mind acts just like an eraser, as it erases all memory of the dream. The very same thing happens when I re-enter this earth reality. As soon as I open my eyes the programming begins. My five senses begin their operation and the functioning of the senses act as a huge eraser to eventually draw me into the illusion that mass consciousness has created. I dont stand a chance of resisting the dream. As days, months and years slip by I too join the rest of humanity as I drift off to sleep. Now, Im fully functioning in the dream. This is not a bad thing; it was my purpose for coming into the physical. I wanted the challenges that time provided. I wanted the challenges that contrast and resistance would provide. When the explosion began, I was a soul. I had not as yet become flesh and blood. I had not become matter as yet. I think that may have taken billions of years. The negative and the positive are the fuel for my evolution. Finally here I am now becoming lucid in the dream.

Once the full realization sinks in that I am dreaming I will then be about ready to enter into the rest thats been mine from the beginning. I as a soul am a break-off of the Absolute. The explosion of the Absolute sent me as well as you all on a tremendously long and exciting journey. Now here we are helping each other remember. The Absolute is collapsing back in upon itself and thats synonymous with you and I and all of us ending our journey and going back home. The Absolute is becoming so muuuuuch more because of all us little bits and pieces.

Each and every one of us is a unique expression of the Absolute that before the explosion took place had no expression. The explosion was a release, for as the Absolutes vibration was lowered as a result of the horrific travail from the desire to express, the explosion took place which resulted in souls being created later only to lower vibration still to form matter hence you and I. this I dare not claim to be the absolute truth to the letter, but in principle I believe this is what happened and is still happening. As for all these sticky details, to me they are not so vitally important.

I am not a stickler for details, especially details of this kind. Im thankful every day I live that I have heard the Shepherds voice and heard it enough that I will never follow the hireling henceforth and forever more. I am thankful for the experience that Christianity gave me. It was what I needed at the time. I hope that what Ive seen has brought me to the place on the path where all judgment I have dispensed of. I am more and more losing my ability to judge anyone. Light destroys all traces of the antichrist and in its place there is understanding.

Forgiveness is not forgetting its understanding.

I will end this by saying I so enjoy so much light that is coming forth as we all compare notes that Source is sending each of us. Light is coming to all who are not soundly sleeping theses days. Blessings to every one of you.

THESE THREE ARE ONE

RonSigler — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 02:00:09 GMT

When ever I think of the difference between God and I I can know its the human mind or ego that is in operation. When I shift my consciousness I am then all there is and everything else is a reflection of what I am.

Jesus knew these things and no doubt taught them assuming he was a true master. { Icould probably get burned at the stake for that comment.} There is the ABSOLUTE the relative and creation--- .These three are in absolute truth One. we can never ever fathom the Absolute, we can only know that creation, that is, originated within and issued forth from this Absolute.

There is the Source or Absolute. Out of this Absolute came the God we pray to, and out of this God we pray to, came Creationyou and I. The only distinction between these three that are in reality, One, is the ego, that which we call the human mind, that in man that needs to be renewed.

If what I see and share, generates more love, compassion, understanding and forgiveness for all men then I feel good.. In absolute truth, there is no wrong path, theres only the path that you are taking.

They all lead you back home. All roads lead to Rome.When I look through my single eye, there is nothing to stew or fret about for there is nothing amiss in all of Gods creation.

All my love, Ron

Karmic Law

Silentr — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 20:37:03 GMT

KARMIC LAW

"O God, that one might read the book of fate,

And see the revolutions of the time

Make mountains level, and the continent,

Weary of solid firmness, melt itself

Into the sea!"

When they asked Jesus: "Who did sin, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" He answered: "Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

This wonderful revelation of the Christ Power settles for always the hopeless strait jacket of karma from which the Orientals believe there is no escape.

Jesus came to break the fate or karmic patterns by showing man the differentiation between shadow and substance. Finally he lifted himself to a consciousness where he could not any more be touched by belief.

His dismissal of the karmic belief was simple, as were all His other works. "The prince of this would cometh and hath nothing in ME. If there is nothing in you to respond to the false laws of the ancestors, the human fate or karma will have no place of expression. "Nothing happens but MY LOVE allows" takes care of all that when you have come to the point of recognition of the ONE PRESENCE, instead of two powers.

Nothing enters or finds a place of expression unless it is first accepted by you. It is true that you can accept a thing as real for another, and manifest it yourself at a later date. You see now the necessity for your conversation to be "Yea, yea" and Nay, nay."

"How did this happen to me?" is a common question. Somewhere along the line you have accepted it as real for yourself, for another. This appears terrifying on the surface.but when you enter the Revelation of Jesus Christ, "many of the former things shall not be remembered nor come into mind."

The idea of Karma is not frightening once you have accepted Jesus Christ (the WORD made flesh), the "flesh" in which you see God: "In my flesh shall I see God".where God, Spirit, is stepped down to a point of visibility, through the agent of the Temple body.

Jesus functioned also in a karmic pattern but could at will move from His fate to His Divine Destiny. In other words, he neutralized the fate pattern with ease, when He "went unto His Father." He then arose to the elevation of the Father. The Son (Jesus) was under the curse of the law just as you are, until He discovered His true heritage and ascended to the Fatherhood degree.

There is no need for you to wonder at this power of transition, for it is resident in the Mind of Christ Jesus.the identical mind which you are invited to LET BE IN YOU. You, too, then have the capacity to transmute human fate and karmic laws.making them without power and virtually nil.

When you REPENT, you "turn" unto ME. In other words, you enter into a CONSCIOUSNESS of the Christ. You transcend the laws of human belief.as surely as the Hebrew Children transcended the laws governing flames and heat.and just as surely as you are told that from this elevation of consciousness the fire shall not burn nor the water quench thee.

There are endless illustrations of the setting aside of human fate and thereby breaking the hypnosis of man. It is stated by Jesus Christ that "neither this man nor his father did sin." This sweeping statement puts to silence for all time the power of collective karma and fate. The hypnotic laws of the human mind will continue to be effective until the CONSCIOUSNESS of the CHRIST is accepted.

"And if he drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt him,"another proof that entering the CONSCIOUSNESS of the CHRIST nullifies laws of the human mind. He does not in any way overcome karma, neither the laws of fire, water, poison. He is at a level where these things have no power. If he were to overcome them, he would have to endow them with power to hurt or kill him. He is not concerned about their disintegration nor their appearances.even though he sees the same flames destroy the men who build the fires of supposed destruction, for HE IS in the place WHERE THOSE LAWS ARE NON-OPERATIVE.

If you have failed to accept the Immaculate Conception as a literal, actual biological fact, as well as a symbolical law, you are still under the curse of Karma, because you have the conception of the woman and your days are few and full of trouble, etc. There is no escape from fate or karma through this heritage of the human belief.no escape but that which is worked out by the "sweat of your brow," and in the agony of the crucifixion and death on the human cross of belief.

Jesus submitted to this karmic picture to show you the great power of God to transcend all the beliefs of man even death knowing the while that He could have neutralized the entire picture. But had He done this, we would still be without proof.

The emancipation of the soul from the prison house of fate and karma comes only through SELF Consciousness. This causes the mask of personality to give place to the CHRIST.

In the overcoming of disease and in harmony man goes out to battle with something he declares is nothing, not unlike Don Quixote tilting at windmills, which he imagined an army of invaders. Likewise, when man establishes an "enemy" he must clothe it with a mask and give it or endow it with all the power it is going to have and to use against him.

As the self identification takes place in the individual, he experiences some of the things which have not been uttered by man some of the things which Jesus could not tell in Jerusalem.

"There are many things I could not tell you because of your unbelief".because of the incapacity to receive them, because of the belief in the limitations in the human mind. As we see HIM ascending into the place of the Christ, we likewise see the flowing of the manifestation in terms that man can understand. Thus substance falls into loaves and fishes. It has always been there, but invisible to the human eyes that could not see. To make a thing appear which already is the work not of a mental magician, but the capacity of him who speaks THE WORD without effort.

No wonder then Jesus said, "Leave all FOLLOW ME." And gradually you are beginning to do just this. The consciousness is becoming so aware of the PRESENCE in which everything IS, and need not be "demonstrated" in the worn-out sense of the word, that the trifling demonstrations of the human thought are like so many gnats flying in the face of eternity.

The Law is no respecter of persons. God does not bow to the will or desires of man. He is constantly functioning in all His glory.and it "falleth on the just and the unjust." It is available to any man who will recognize it and by his SELF IDENTIFICATION with the Christ, he will experience it. All the valleys, depressions and lack will be filled--and the hills of fear (the obstacles) be leveled.

The tabernacle in the wilderness

Dougmac — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 03:13:42 GMT

Im sure most here have been exposed to a study or two or three about the Tabernacle.
Im gonna just share some "stuff" as I like to call it because we all have a unique vision. So this is my attempt at the Tabernacle and what I have been shown by the Holy Spirit. Ok, the Tabernacle is pitched in the wilderness which is a metaphor for our experience in the Human condition and our belief in it. There are three stages to the Tabernacle. The outer court,the inner court or the Holy Place and the Holy of holies. Now none of what I am going to say has anything to do with a Tent the Earth or a physical body,yes thats a constant with me. It has to do with taking a Biblical metaphor,allegory,or type and shadow for those of us who have been involved with Kingdom teachings,and applying it to mind(Spirit).This application is for seeing things beyond the Flesh(inward vision) and as an activity of mind(God).
In the outer court(externals, physical vision and thought for it) is where the multitudes would gather,the common people.Remember Jesus said He didnt come for the multitudes(external perception).
This is where perception is formed. This is where you lose your child like faith and begin to identify with performing for the Worlds expectation. Its where you begin to die with the loss of your innocence in your Mind thinking that life is out "there". Everything is condition and response or involuntary by what you have been taught through your perception and its all a distraction from the truth of your Being. From this point you are hypnotized and of the World or as most are calling it these days in the dream of separation. Here you know God as a concept outside of yourself and thats the God of this World. Its where you pray for things instead of knowing. Its where you think of sacrifice for gain.Its where you believe you should suffer for the guilt thats in you from the separation that has occurred. Its where you believe in sin and a Devil outside of yourself and as an active power. But its where Jesus says away from me I never knew you. Its barely the Thirty fold. Its all based in the outer World and your reaction to its Stimuli for the senses. Complete fallen nature living for the lusts of the Flesh completely body identified.Thats stage one of mind development in the World and your journey away from Home.Or as Paul said born of a Woman under the law. This is the ego in wrong mindedness and it has control of you.Here the Son of God is veiled and hidden.This is where Adam is driven from the Garden and the Woman Eve(Darkened carnal mind) is left to herself Gen.3. This is Hell!The Pit that David spoke about. This is the story Job tells of Satan going to and fro in the Earth. But dont fret Because in Job it says that the Sons of God are present. And David said in Psalms suffer not my Holy one to SEE corruption. Christ can not See corruption as real,but that is not known here just yet in the outer Court of our mind in perception.Here Jesus is an Icon worshiped and known as a historical grammatical figure instead(anti) of our reality within(Christ). Thats all I can type for now on the outer court. There is more of course and how this starts to turn inward to the inner court and finally to the most holy of all. Post your opinions help me out and lets chat I think you guys can see what direction I am Going. Love and Light,Doug.

I like how Joseph Campbell put it..... "Hell is life drying up"

Also.... 'The separateness apparent in the world is secondary...... beyond the world of opposites is an unseen, but experienced, unity and identity in us all. Today, the planet is the only proper "in group". You must return with the bliss and integrate it. The return is seeing the radiance everywhere. Sri Ramakrishna said: 'Do not seek illumination unless you seek it as a man whose hair is on fire seeks a pond."

Now your task, if you so choose to accept it, is to translate this Biblically.... or is it all lost in the translational crossover bid..... some would cheer heartily and smugly if it was so ...love,Ron

THE CREATOR AND THE EARTH

In the beginning of all worlds, long ago, yet still, the Eternal One Is. Beyond temporal distinction, above location, behind all manifestation, is the All, the Totality, the Holy Source and Creator of all that later came.

One face of the Eternal One is ever formless and beyond definition, but the other face of the Eternal One appears as Two. These Two, between them, are the source of all created things.

Holy Mother, Truth: all matter is her body,
   the Earth is her eye.

Holy Father, Love: the stars are his flesh,
   Spirit his I.

Two lovers, two friends, intelligent partners. Between them, the universe lives suspended. Through them, all things are created and maintained.

And so it came to pass that the Eternal One knew form and duration through the graceful crystalline structures of Truth that clothe the Eternal Feminine, the Beautiful One, in material form. And it likewise came to pass that the same Eternal One assigned all energy to the suns and brought love to animate the stars.

And the stars loved matter. And matter loved the stars. Great was their exchange, wondrous and pleasurable, the times and ranges of their interaction. Together they enjoyed the passionate transformations of matter into energy that occur on stellar surfaces, and together they enjoyed slower, elongated forms of planetary interaction.

Eons elapsed. And eons again. Enjoyable beyond description, through description. Together matter and I created. Through a body of interwoven galaxies, a body of countless stars, my loving relationships with Truth took many forms. Through my stars, I knew matter. Together on the surface of my stars, we created leaping fire life, gas life, liquid living metat creatures leaping....leaping far into space, exploding, wonderful life.

But where we created together on her planets, the life was excessively material. My intelligence could not reside in such life. And where we created together on my stars, the life was excessively stellar, flickering, not long in any form. Matter enjoyed life most when it was consistent and durable, when her intelligence could live inside the life and look through it and understand. I enjoyed life that was volitile, animated, passionate, life that I could love within, flow within, from form to ever-changing form. Animation, my forte. Duration the strength of matter.

     Then the idea came.

     The idea. Something between spirit and stone, between starlight and stardust, a slow form of combustion, fluid flowing structure, blending the natures of us both. Spirit in durable form. Matter inspired. The idea.

It was here in this star system, that we first began to work together on the new project, here that biological life first appeared in the crucible of our mutual attention. But it is more than biological life that we, the two eternal partners, have come here to produce: IT IS A CHILD, A NEW KIND, A THIRD, AN EQUAL, one capable of knowing both the intelligence of matter and the intelligence of spirit as its own. And yet, it is more that this. For there is only One who could take up the body of this child, this biological blending, and make it live.

And it came to pass that the Eternal One spoke to us and said, "It is right that you should conceive this idea, for I would clothe myself in a body half spirit, half stone, that through this body, I might commence a Second Stage of Universal Creation.

The universe you now know is but the egg, the seed. It is right that you should conceive this biological one. You have my blessing. When the time is full, I will arise in the child."

Creator in Creation, clothed in mortal flesh, birthed of one star and one sacred stone.

     One body.

A single Creator, dressed in substance.

I give you these words, not as one who would demand allegiance, but as one who has walked long beside you on the road, one who has blended with your way of looking at things and who now says, "Come, there is a better way. Listen while I tell you of my vision."

THE EMERGING SACRED REALITY

I am the Presence where there is no time but the eternal now. I am Alpha and Omega, the source of all beginnings and the completion of all cycles. The reality of what I am is beyond time. My interest IS time. I create time that I might appear in diversity and clothe my attributes in form, that these attributes, appearing as created ones, may enjoy relationships in my nature, which is love.

Where my attention turns to detail, I appear as the many. I am one in spirit, many in form.

At the interface between my eternal unity and Creation's diversity, I have created human beings to be the BRIDGE, the CONNECTING LINK between my universality and my universe, between myself and creation. I have designed the human species to clothe my intelligence in matter and implement my love in form. I have created them to share my Eternal Life and my creative power. I have created human beings to be conscious participants with me in a Second Stage of Universal Creation where biological detail of an unprecedented nature is brought to dimensional realms, terrestial and beyond. The human species is the physical flesh in whom I incarnate, with whom I shall travel, and through whom I shall create. I come to dwell consciously among them, to be their God, and they my people.

The Four Winds

wisdomschild — Thur, 02 Oct 2008 18:06:41 GMT

"They shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other." Matt. 24: 30

I believe these "four winds" are speaking of four different orders, realms or eons that we are passing through in this day. Some are still in the first principles of the gospel, others are coming into the light of the kingdom, others are already tasting of the judgements of God that brings them into a totally NEW CREATION. 2 Cor. 5:17

We see the "Elect Company" fly like an angel in the midst of heaven, having the Eonian Gospel, the Age-Lasting Gospel, to preach to them upon the earth. They have a cleansing, message of deliverance.

Rev. 14:6
"Then I saw another angel flying in mid-air, with an eternal Gospel (good news) to tell to the inhabitants of the earth, to every race and tribe and language and people.
And he cried with a mighty voice, Revere God and give Him glory, for the hour of His judgment has arrived. Fall down before Him; pay Him homage and adoration and worship Him Who created heaven and earth, the sea and the springs (fountains) of water."

quote from Dora Van Assen

*********************

"I am the Source of the Wind from the New Heaven that now restructures the human world. It is for these times, for my times, that you have been created and that you have come into the Earth with your talents, your resources, your credibility and your human influence. Use your gifts now, without reservation, to serve the purposes of love. Experience in return the gift that I give to all who love, a share in my own consciousness. Those who best understand these times are those who are offering the greatest healing and blessing into them. Let your earthly agreements echo the spirit of my sacred human song. Let your heart be open to the love that I freely share through you. The time for the greater works is at hand.

During these last few years before the Truth is obvious to all, have mercy on those who retreat into the old order of fear. Do not attack and condemn them. Many of them would accept the ways of love, revise the policies of their enterprises, alter the course of nations, were it not for the constant condemnation of the so-called righteous. Those who attack are part of the problem, not part of the solution. There are evils in the world wherever fear is honored as a god, but attack will not change them. Those who attack - if they persist - become what they criticize.

Do not try to change anyone externally, attacking behavior, though you may see clearly that it needs to change. That is the old approach, the very cause of warfare. Share your own experiences. Tell your own story. Share the wonder, the joy, the excitement, the benefits that you have come to know in the service to the Presence that is rising on the Earth. If ever my Spirit stirs, even momentarily, the seed is sown. Your words may be forgotten, but the Spirit of your words will live on.

Those whom you encounter, aye even those you merely brush past, will go back to their habits altered, more open to love, to the Eternal Love, that continues to rise. This is what is means to have a mission inside of time, preparing the way of the Lord.
