Free of Illusion by Moriba Kemessia Jah

I am especially pleased to share this article with you, as it was the first article (in 1997) which influenced my spiritual path profoundly. I have learned a lot since then and have always connected strongly with Moriba's insight and wisdom. Since, many others have come to me asking about this article's origins and where they can read it. I have either sent them to SpiritWeb's archives or allowed them to read my own tattered copy. Here, happily, is the very article, so Dear Reader, please sit back and relax into Moriba Kemessia Jah's eye-opening message which may change your life, too! Moriba Jah is a powerhouse of knowledge, wisdom and inspiration. Please visit his tremendous websites to find more of his work. - Deidre

Dear Ones,

We all come from the same Source. We always have been, are, and will be connected to this Source. This Source is the same which people have termed "Creator," "God," "Allah," "Yahweh," "Oriman," "Ra," "Nature," etc. ... It matters not which river we decide to swim in, for all rivers lead to the great ocean.

Each being is unique and singular, yet in our uniqueness we are one. Many people criticize others because their character, race, gender, personality, and/or religion is different from their own. This behavior is due to ignorance, and I shall tell you why. Many people would agree that we were created in the image and likeliness of our Source, and these same people would also agree that our Source is almighty and unlimited. Taking this into account, it is yet so difficult for humankind to notice that the variety of people and races is but a simple expression of the unlimited nature of the Source. The differences are superficial and the similarities are deep and profound. A rose and an orchid are physically different, yet they are both flowers. Their individual uniqueness reflects the unlimited nature of the Source. One is not better than the other; they are simply different in their oneness. A cloud and a lake are physically different, yet they are both water only in different states.

This difference reflects the unlimited nature of the Source. A Chinese man, communist, poor, and Buddhist would appear to be very different from an Italian woman, democratic, rich, and Catholic. The difference between them reflects the unlimited nature of the Source. The Chinese is no better than the Italian, nor vice-versa. The one does not contain more of the Source than the other. They are simply different in their oneness. These three examples are very good, however they are still limited. To be less limited we could contemplate the following: A rose, a cloud, and a woman are extremely different, physically. All three are different aspects or expressions of the Source. The difference between them reflects the unlimited nature of the Source. No one is better than the other, they are simply unique in their oneness. Now dear ones, perhaps you can notice how senseless it is to hate, destroy, or abuse, when as a whole, we are doing it to ourselves. It is not that hatred is "bad," it is simply unnecessary. There are people who have only experienced pain, hatred, anguish, and rejection since the moment of their birth. When these people grow up, it is only logical to realize that they will express themselves as they only know how. Suppose that one of these "evil" beings commits a homicide, meaning the act of brining physical death to someone. What is the first thing that we as a society do? We send him to trial projecting all of our resentment, then we imprison him/her. There, in jail, this being only receives more hatred, pain, and suffering. We as society despise this being for what he/she stands for in our eyes. Without being aware of it, we are only assisting this being in being more of what we precisely despise. Does this make sense? If this being is released from prison, he/she will probably commit another "crime." If someone were to be at fault would it be this being, or we as a society. This being might even find pleasure from bringing others pain, yet if this is the only form of pleasure that he/she knows, can we sincerely blame him/her? Let's go back in time within the previous incident to the time before this "evil" being was put in prison. Instead of sending this being to prison, let's say that we sent him/her to a place where he/she were surrounded by loving, non-judgmental beings. Here, this being would be given the opportunity to experience love and harmony. People could teach this being that he/she is not a "bad" person, but has simply expressed him/herself in an unnecessary manner.

In this scenario, this being would probably find out how pleasurable love is. He/she would see that hate and violence are completely unnecessary and disruptive. Only by knowing both love and hate, can a being see the "big picture." Only by knowing both, can a being analyze what the final product of the one or the other is. Now, I ask you which form of treatment is the most harmonious. Hate cannot be dissolved with more hate, just augmented. But on the other hand, a strong and true love cannot be dissolved by hate. Love is always stronger because love is balance, whereas hate is precisely the lack of balance. In all things, there is "Light," and "Darkness." To reject darkness is only to produce more of it. To illuminate darkness one must show it the light, not keep it away from the light. At night, to see in a dark room one must show the darkness the light. Yet, I must say that in all things there is light and darkness. Both are necessary to create balance. Many people associate darkness with the lack of harmony, and light with harmony. This is only a personal choice, not a law.

Darkness will be the lack of harmony as long as a being identifies it as such. Day and night need to exist to create a balance. Let us say that day is "good" and harmonious, and that night is "bad" and non-harmonious. People feel fine during the day, yet as soon as night approaches, they hurry home and lock all doors and windows. People are scared at night because it is non-harmonious, to them. At any point in time, any person can choose how they wish to perceive something. No one can eliminate the night, but he/she can change the way that they perceive the night. This is the key dear ones. Darkness will always exist in all things, yet the way someone perceives it can always change. It is not about changing night to day, nor darkness to light. It's about making the night become as day while being night. It's about making the ugly become beautiful while being ugly. It's about making darkness become light while being darkness. This is one of the big secrets towards harmony. Yeshua Ben Yosef (Jesus the Christ), Buddha, Krishna, Zoroaster, and all other messengers of love and light, are not exempt from having an equal amount of light and darkness. They knew the secret. They made darkness become light while being darkness. They accepted their darkness and loved it until it became as light. Many people accept the existence of a being who leads the horde of the "evil." This being is known by many names including "Devil," "Lucifer," etc. Let me say that this being also has an equal amount of light and darkness, but he made his light become darkness while being light. In any moment, this being could choose to do the exact opposite by loving his darkness until it became light while being darkness. Then he would be a harmonious "Devil." Imagine that!

Love, hate, and fear, all part of the same feeling, except that they are at opposite ends of the spectrum. One cannot experience both at the same time and space. They may be one next to the other, yet never together as one. Night and day are one next to the other, yet never night during day nor vice-versa. If one is afraid or angry, one only has to ask for, and think of love, to become not afraid or not angry. Even though it is easier said than done, it is still very, very possible. I know because I have done it. Making choices from one second to the next is the key factor. In truth, everything just "Is." It is humankind that has created duality. When one defines light, the definition of darkness is immediately created. When one defines beautiful, one has immediately defined ugly, and so on. For humankind to gain understanding, he and she has sought out this understanding by defining. To define is to limit. I will say this again, to define is to limit. In defining things in life, we have only limited ourselves. Nature, even though always in balance, always changes. Nature is never stagnant, even though many things within her appear to be constant. A human being's physical life is so short, that he/she cannot perceive just how much Nature does change. Only in releasing our definitions and "being as children," can we truly take a giant step towards understanding and enlightenment. Being as children means not having barriers that interfere with experiencing life in its wholeness. It means not going by the way that society tells us that we must perceive things. It means being eager to learn with an open mind and heart. It means not being chained to the way our family and friends told us how life was or should be. It means not having hatred and prejudice. It's seeing within and without in that magical state of awe and splendor. It's looking at life with wonder and having that curiosity about everything, that "I want to know" feeling. It's finding and rescuing that childlike magic and innocence that we all had until someone told us "NO," or "stop living in that fantasy world of yours, you're in the real world."

In a period of 24 hours, Nature reveals to us the mysteries of our own existence.

The nature of the universe is but a giant mirror reflecting ourselves.

The same way that we can see ourselves reflected in night and day, darkness and light, we can see ourselves reflected in the whole of Nature.

He/she who contemplates the universe wishing to find him/herself, will find him/herself. Not only will this being find him/herself, but will also find the Source, and will find that he/she and the Source are the same. The Source is totality, all in all. When we look at ourselves in a mirror, we are only seeing a small expression of this totality. However, if we look beyond of what is reflected in a mirror, being aware that the reflection is a door, then and only then will we have a key to the infinite! A person and a tree are two different expressions of the Source, but they are both doors which lead to the same place. What a great revelation and enlightenment it would be for the being who would be so bold as to open the door which he/she sees in the mirror, and look face to face at his/her truth. The revelation would come if this being would later open the doors of an ant, a tree, the sun, the wind, and even someone he/she hated, and found him/herself. This being would finally realize that to truly love something is to love oneself, and to hate something is to hate oneself. I'll give you a small example of this concept of seeing oneself mirrored within Nature. One day I went to this mountain. It was an eight hour hike. Even though I was tired, this sense of completion filled me. As I lay on a rock I saw a Condor, a bird, flying. This bird wasn't fighting the wind, but rather allowing itself to be carried by the wind. If the bird were to perceive itself as being separated from the wind, it would fight against the wind, become tired and perhaps anguished. The wind is stronger than the bird. The wind does not desire to harm the bird nor to mislead it. The wind desires to take the bird where it needs to go. To fight the wind would be to fight harmony, and create the illusion of disharmony. The bird knows that in flight it is one with the wind, and so it uses the wind in harmony. It allows the wind to assist it to reach its destination. To the same effect dear ones, most people see themselves separate from Life, from the Source. In doing so, they fight against it and loose.

People become tired, anguished and stressed. All this for no reason because the Source takes us where we need to be if we simply allow it to do so. If we accept our oneness with the Source and use it within harmony, then our fighting will end, and then we can enjoy life instead of dreading it. Can you see the relation with the Condor? Realize that all of Nature can teach us so much about our relationship with all things, with the Source.

To continue, Light and darkness exist to create balance. If one sees light as harmonious and darkness as non- harmonious, then one is not creating balance. Harmony and non-harmony do not combine to create balance because that which is in balance is also in harmony, not out of harmony. Once one can see both light and darkness as harmony, then and only then will one be creating balance. Only under the illusion of being separated from the Source can one accept the lack of harmony as a reality.

Love

Love is the natural flow of the universe, however, there are places within the universe where the lack of harmony predominates. In these places, such as Earth, it is more difficult to be harmonious than to be non- harmonious, although this is slowly changing. As each day goes by, the Earth is becoming more and more a part of harmony even though it does not seem so. I shall explain this further, later on. Have you ever asked yourself why the martyrs were martyrs? The martyrs were martyrs because the harmony which they brought was rejected by those who were non-harmonious. If those who were martyrs came to this planet to fulfill their missions of peace and love, then realize that they did not have the option of not being martyrs. Their missions did not include the need of being martyrs, however, here, being a martyr was inevitable. Where love and harmony exist, dominance and hate do not because love is freedom; love is harmony; love is balance. Those who were martyrs demonstrated and expressed this freedom, harmony, and balance. In doing this, they left those who were non-harmonious discovered and naked. Naturally, they [non- harmonious] didn't like this, and they did as much as possible to stop this.

The history of planet Earth reflects the desire of Man to dominate the masses. This cannot be accomplished through harmony and balance. So, how can this dominance be accomplished? I shall tell you through an example. It will only be an example, so no offense is intended nor extended.

First, you take a group of people and persuade them to believe that "God" is a being which punishes, and by the "sins" that an individual commits, he/she will be sent to "hell" eternally. You tell he/she that the only way not to be punished is to believe in the "Only Son of God." You take a scripture, and by changing a few words, you show them that this is coming from "God," not man. In this way, you impose upon this group of people, a series of rules, including those which define what "sin' is, that they cannot follow. In this manner you guarantee imbalance with fear, and a feeling of guilt (I am not worthy). You tell these people that "God" is a being so grand that no one can reach him, except through the "only Son," and this way guaranteeing a sense of inferiority (I am nothing). You tell them that the scriptures are the only truth, this way guaranteeing inequality, disharmony, and a sense of superiority with respect to other religions (I am right, you are wrong. I will go to heaven, you will go to hell). Let me pause and say that this was a really good way to guarantee recruitment out of fear. This "only truth," also guaranteed that those who did not believe every single word in the scriptures were bound to them by fear of being judged by this "angry heavenly Father." To somewhat top it all off, you tell these people that at the end of times, the "Devil" will tempt all of humankind in infinite ways, and whoever follows him will perish. This way you guarantee that even if this "only Son'" came back personally, very few would believe it because of their fear of being tempted by the "Devil." By the way, to clarify things about the scriptures, you couldn't have changed anything until all those who personally witnessed the truth of this son of God were deceased. If you would have tried this while they were alive, it wouldn't have worked because they held within them the direct truth and experience given.

This has been only an example. I didn't refer to Christianity to judge it. I referred to it because it is the religion that, in this life, I am most familiar with. I am sure that every religion has at least one tool of domination which guarantees it strength as an institution. I just wanted you to observe how dominance could be established over a group of people, a dominance which has even lead to murder in the name of "God."

Society, including religion, tells you who you must be, how much money you should make, who you must associate with, how you must dress, how and what you must eat, what activities you must indulge in, what material things you must have to be accepted, who you must marry, what physical appearance you must have, what products to buy, etc If you do not match these expectancies, then you are viewed as a failure, a nobody, a parasite, an embarrassment, and practically not worthy to be alive. I hear people constantly say, "I want to be somebody." I tell them, "You are, and you have no idea just how much of a somebody you are." Everything in Society is full of Rituals. For those who do not like the term "Ritual," you may interpret this as "Routine." When we allow ourselves to be engulfed in Routine, or Rituals, the Now moment or Present, is lost. When someone says a prayer routinely, the thought and feeling within the prayer is lost. When this is lost, the prayer looses its essence and thus its meaning. When one does a task the same way, the task at hand becomes lost. One enters this monotonous world where one is like a robot. Thought and feeling are lost, and therefore we don't live the Now because we aren't even aware of it. I will not say that All Rituals within Society/Religion are unnecessary, but I will share with you an interesting experience. One night, I was in deep contemplation of All that Is. I was in deep meditation.

One of my Guides and Friends took me by the hand (not physically) and we began to soar through the skies. One moment I was aware of being in my body, and the next moment I was aware of being over Asia, possibly India/Tibet. As we landed, I saw a temple. In this temple there was a man who was cleaning some sort of an amulet or religious object. He cleaned it with a cloth and lifted it up to the sunlight to see if it was nice and shiny. As he did this, another man in the distance saw his actions, yet didn't go to him to ask him what he was doing. The man who was watching hurried to his room and took a similar object, rubbed it with a special cloth, and held it to the light. When he did this, he blessed God and asked for God's blessing. Another man saw this man's actions from a distance, and like the man he was watching, didn't go over to him to ask him what he was doing. Instead, he hurried to his room and took a similar object, washed it in special water, rubbed it with a special cloth, got on his knees, held it up to heaven, and prayed to God for mercy and good fortune. Another man saw these actions, and as before, he didn't ask the man he was watching what he was doing. Instead, he hurried to his room and took this process a step further. Another man saw him, and so on, and so on, and so on. Can you see how a Ritual can begin based only on misunderstanding and assumption. If someone would have only asked the first man what he was doing, the entire Ritual would have never existed. Let me just say that many, if not the majority, of Rituals performed worldwide today began in a fashion similar to the example above.

The frame of mind of most people, is based on self imposed limitations in the name of society (the invisible master), and this is the chain which maintains us enslaved to unbalance, chaos, anguish, poverty, hatred, and fear. When I say poverty, I am referring to all poverty: spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical. A group of beings which go by the label of journalists," have insured our fear and insecurity by persuading us to believe that we are weak and vulnerable to our own Brothers/Sisters, which in turn they persuade us to hate. In this way they guarantee more imbalance, dominance, hatred, fear, and disharmony.

Interesting, is it not? Worry not, for things are changing before your very eyes, even if you can't see it yet. When dealing with relationships, many people say, "This woman," or "This man is mine." From that instant, it is no longer love, but dominance. There are also those who say. "I love you, but you must do this and that. You must not do this, and that." It is no longer love, but dominance. Love is saying, "I love you, and I wish for you to do as you please. Be yourself."

In true love, there is no jealousy, because jealousy is insecurity, insecurity is fear, and fear is the lack of love, remember? Love is the lack of fear. To love another, you must love yourself first because one cannot give what one does not have. Love is equality and humility. To feel pity for someone is proof of feeling superior to that someone. To feel compassion for someone is proof of feeling equal to that someone, desiring his/her well being. Compassion is the truth which says, "We are equal, and because of my love for you, I wish you to be well." Pity is the illusion which says, "Poor fool, better him/her than me."

Compassion is what drives a person to help another simply for the satisfaction of seeing that other person well, and happy. Pity is what drives a person to help another simply to boost his/her own ego. Compassion says, "Have this, and I hope it makes you feel better." Pity says, "Have this, and I hope it makes you feel better. Remember that I gave it to you."

To love is to release, to let flow. A person does not try to love, but rather allows him/herself to love. Love is natural, and in the natural there is not effort, but rather allowance. In love, one does not hold him/herself, but rather gives him/herself. Love is not creating a river, but rather allowing the natural, and pre-existent flow of the river. The river already exists, one must only allow its free flow. Love exists in all things because love is the Source. For one to manifest this love, one must allow the flow of it. To allow the free flow of love is to allow the free flow of the Source. To hold back love is to obstruct the Source. When one obstructs the Source, the river floods and no longer follows its natural course. The river detours. This detour creates distorted images of the truth, of the Source. These distortions are synonymous to hatred, fear, egoism, poverty, anguish, etc... The natural flow of the Source is love, wisdom, peace, harmony, abundance, happiness, health, etc... To allow this natural flow is to manifest the Source in its natural essence. To allow this natural flow one must accept being one with the Source, not separate. To deny being one with the Source is to manifest the detoured river of the Source. To accept being one with the Source is the Truth, to deny it, is the Illusion. When someone says, "The Source is Almighty," it is a great truth, but what very few contemplate is the fact that the Source's greatness is reflected in all creation, including ourselves. We are all almighty and great within the Source, and in truth, we are in the Source because if the Source is all in all, it means that nothing is outside of it. With this I wish to show that we are truly one with the Source, and there never has been or will be separation. Its not possible because we are the Source. By thinking and accepting that we are separate from the Source, we are choosing to live the detoured flow of the river, the Illusion, the Lie. By denying our oneness with the Source, we are only denying ourselves. The Source does not punish anyone, because to do that would be to punish itself for expressing itself the way it has chosen to express itself through ourselves (ITSELF). The Source is love, and love is freedom. that is the only reason that we have free will. If the Source were not love, then we would never have to, or be able to make any decisions. To punish is to dominate, and domination is the lack of love.

When a great Master (teacher) said, "Love one another as you love yourselves," he wasn't asking us to do it, he was telling us a universal law that carries out whether you believe in it or not. A person loves another in the exact way he/she loves him/herself, and this is inevitable. As a person loves him/herself more and more, in this same manner, he/she may love another. Everything you direct towards others is but a reflection of what you direct towards yourself. So, to have a society of love, the members of such society must first loves themselves. This love is not to be confused with the boosting of the ego, nor having a superiority complex. Everything begins in ourselves, to be reflected later towards others. The world in which we live in is simply a reflection of the way in which we perceive ourselves, what we think, and what we feel. This is a law that carries out whether you wish to believe in it or not. Ignorance nor non-acceptance changes a single thing. Being one with the Source, being within the Source, being created in the image of the Source, makes us Co-Creators. Being Co-Creators implies that each moment of our lives is our own creation. I will explain this further, later on.

There was a great Master (teacher) who came to this Earth, and his mission was love. His name is Yeshua ben Josef, better known as Jesus the Christ. By no means was he the only Master to come to this Earth, but for this moment I shall refer to him since we have been, and always will be good friends. This Master came to bring a message of love, therefore freedom. He came to show that love is the Great Eternal Power, and that with love, all things can be accomplished. Many loved this Master, including myself. There were also those who hated him, and feared him. Those who hated and feared him thought, "This messenger and his message are not convenient to us. If we eliminate the messenger, there will be no more message." This was logical, and so they tried. To their surprise, the messenger came back from "death." "How could this be," they asked. Well, I'll tell you the way the messenger explained it to me then, even though I didn't understand it then (Of course, I do now). If the messenger would have simply been someone who carried the message, the elimination would have worked. What those who feared him didn't know was that the messenger was not simply someone who carried the message, but rather was the message. The message is Eternal, and by the messenger being one with the message, he too became Eternal. This is similar to Knowledge versus Wisdom.

To just know is as good as being ignorant. Many, many people are very knowledgeable. How many of them are wise? Knowledge becomes Wisdom only when one becomes Knowledge, instead of being just a carrier of Knowledge. To be one with Knowledge and become Wisdom is only achieved through the experience, and the harmonious application of Knowledge. To carry a "package," and to BE the "package," are very different things. To carry love, and to BE love, are very different things. Now, what allowed Jesus to walk upon the waters, create an abundance of food, heal the sick, bring back the "dead," and bring himself back from "death," and ascend himself? With one word, LOVE. Because of his unconditional, and I stress unconditional, love towards humankind, there was nothing he could not do. By knowing that "I and the Father are the same," he became the natural flow of the river, of the Source, free of illusion. By not holding images of limitation, he became unlimited. He did not fear, nor fight anything, because he knew that if he did, he would make it his reality. With all of this, to this day he shows us what we can accomplish through Love. He shows that "death" is an illusion, love accomplishes anything, Ascension is very attainable. He paved the road! I will get deeper into this, later on.

Co-Creators

Each instant of our lives is created by ourselves. This implies that we are not victims of others, but rather of ourselves. Later on I will tell you of the consequences that, by not assuming responsibility of our physical manifestations, we bring upon ourselves. I will also define manifestations in an easy way to understand, hopefully.

To continue, many people think and believe that we only exist in this physical world, at this time and space. The certain truth is that we are so vast, that we exist in many worlds, and times and spaces, simultaneously! In various religions, the term "heaven" exists. If this term does not exist, then a different word encompassing the same concept exists. To ease understanding, I will associate such concept with the term "dimension." From here on, whenever I use this word, "dimension," I would like for you to think of the concept you have, such as "heaven." "Dimension" is simply a word, and in using it, in no way am I intending to say that the word you use is archaic, nor unacceptable. I simply want to unify terms in one term. This simply facilitates the communication that I would like to convey to you. Thank you! Within a no time/no space, no beginning/no end, all of manifested (tangible, physical) creation was one with the Source, without being self-conscious. If you would, imagine the universes, galaxies, stars, planets, and people, being in a giant kettle. Now, imagine if everything inside this kettle were melted into oneness. Picture this further by imagining that within this oneness we were no longer self-conscious, no longer aware of being individuals, but rather became one consciousness. We would no longer have bodies, but rather one whole body being everything. Going further, this body would be neither limited nor defined. It would have no end nor beginning. It would just BE. If you can conceive of this, than you still have a limited idea of how creation was, the instant before creation. I say limited idea because the intricacies involved are very difficult to explain and grasp, however, this idea is close enough and will do just fine. The following is a concept of Creation that will somewhat take you step by step through the process. It may be very confusing at first, but I simply ask you to be patient with yourself. I have tried to put it as simple as possible. This is only a concept, because every detail would fill infinite libraries. I can only ask you to thank yourself for willing to view things from a broader perspective.

I wish for you to imagine that you do not have a body, but rather that you are only aware of being, existing. For you, time and space do not exist. You are only aware of an eternal Now. In a given moment, or Now, you decide to contemplate yourself. As you do this, an infinite amount of self-conscious light cells, or sparks, are created. When I say self-conscious, I am implying that each spark is conscious of being you (macro-conscious), and at the same time, conscious of being totality expressed individually with respect to each other (micro-conscious). The fact that these self-conscious sparks were created as you contemplated yourself, was simply a way that you showed yourself to yourself after deciding to contemplate yourself. Each spark is yourself, because you are the only thing that is; you are everything that is! Now, after these self-conscious sparks , which are you, were created, you decide to know yourself more. You allow yourself to do this through yourself (each spark). You then give yourself, each spark, the liberty of choosing how they (you) desire to exist. The question is where? You need a "where" for you to exist through your sparks. Because of this, you create an infinite amount of planes of existence, or Dimensions. In this way, you are offering yourself an infinite amount of possibilities to know yourself. Every Dimension exists simultaneously within a no time/no space, within yourself, since you are everything that is. Since you are multidimensional (in all Dimensions simultaneously), your sparks are also, since they were created in your image and likeliness, with your creative capacity, and most important of all, they are you! You are ecstatic, happy, at the richness of experiences that you have through yourself (sparks), and since you are unlimited, you continue to experiment with yourself more and more. You are unlimited energy, and through your sparks, you densify yourself until part of you becomes the illusion of physicality. At this moment, you now have a physical body within which you are universes, solar systems, planets, etc... Let me pause briefly to say that this process took a vast amount of our concept of time. Continuing, space and time are now created. All things within the physical you are composed of four basic elements: gases, solids, liquids, and fire (some people would include plasmas, yet I will not). Everything that you have created is you! Don't let this concept leave your mind!

Experimenting even more through your sparks, you create infinite life forms. Every form is designed with an evolutionary pattern. This guarantees you even more un limitedness. This ensures that your physical part is never stagnant, giving you an infinite amount of experiences for yourself, through yourself.

You are very ecstatic, happy, with what you have done. All life, all of you, is conscious. You have created life forms with the capacity to adapt and grow. In this way, balance is maintained. The reason why you have created evolutionary patterns within life, within you, is because evolution is unlimited. Now, every universe, star, galaxy, and planet, is a living being, a spark which lent itself to perform that specific function.

For a short moment, I have tried to assist you into seeing creation, up to the point that we are at in the paragraph above, from the Sources perspective. From here on, we shall concentrate on Mother Earth, the Spark which lent itself to perform the planetary function. I will describe function better, later on.

This planet, as with the rest of manifested Creation, was, is, and will be a creative experiment for the Source to know itself more. This is the only reason for anything to exist anywhere! From the beginning of this experiment, the self-conscious sparks involved, experimented with many unlimited forms of life. To guarantee the evolution of species, DNA DesoxiriboNucleic Acid {the molecule which houses the designs of All Creation, not just ours}), was created. Self-conscious Sparks, as yourself (the you who is reading this), experimented with planet Earth without becoming a direct part of the experiment.

This would be somewhat like overseers of the experiment. At a given moment, these Sparks projected an essence of themselves onto the third dimensional plane (Earth). Their bodies were not physical, but merely bodies of light. If you were to observe these bodies now, they would be translucent and iridescent.

To continue, these projected essences shared the same consciousness as the projecting Sparks. In other words, there was no concept of separation.

The Sparks were aware of their projections as being themselves, and vice-versa. It was like being at two places simultaneously, and being equally aware of both. To these projections, the concept of death still did not exist. When a Spark got tired of its projection, it simply dematerialized it, and materialized another. Earth was still the Christian concept of the "Garden of Eden." Experimenting even more, these Sparks were able to give their projections a separate focal point of consciousness. This was a major breakthrough. They could now could now experience the physical and non- physical planes independently of each other. However, separation was not a complete concept because the projection was still aware of the existence of the projectee, and of course vice-versa. As a matter of fact, the projectee (Spark) has never lost awareness of the projection, yet the projection has. The concept of "death," from the projection's perspective was still non-existent because it was still non-physical (the projection was still non-physical). The Sparks involved in our Earth experiment created a prototype to house the consciousness of their projections. These prototypes evolved through form for thousands of years until the appropriate moment. The moment I am referring to is the moment of the Link, the unfound or missing one!

When this moment was reached, the first projections were born to what we know as humans. Several things were implemented when this happened. The first thing was a Veil that was placed over the memory, meaning that the humans that were being born had no recollection of being Sparks! With this, the illusion of separation was born also. The projections were no longer aware of who they truly were, and only took as truth that which could be perceived through the five senses. The physical world was the only truth, and the non-understandable became worshipped. As humans experienced the illusion of separation, so was the birth of judgment, of good and bad.

At first, every judgment was based on emotions, and later on thoughts. The perception of the lack of love gave way to frustration and sorrow, and so became violence and hatred. Humans became possessive because they did not know of their creative powers. Ego grew very strong in a short period of time. Obvious survival gave way to the concept of weak and strong, and so fear and domination were born. Throughout the time of an emotional based life, control was established through violence. When thought became involved, the emotion of guilt played its role, like now. Night was dark and cold. It brought a sense of insecurity because it offered no visual tangibility. Night was physical blindness, a fear. Darkness became associated with a "bad" feeling.

I'm sure that many of you would ask why. Let me say that if humans were born with full recollection of who they were, do you feel that they would learn something about physicality? Only by not knowing who we are can we experience being physical as real as we can now. Being physical opened up a whole new world of perspectives and sensations that otherwise we would not be able to experience. Do you not realize how real being separated from the Source, that we are, feels. So you see, by not knowing it is that we are learning. Being that the Source is All in All, can you not be amazed at how varied and intricate physical life is? Can you not see how wondrous Manifested Creation is? We are the Source discovering itself through playing a game of "Let me see what I can learn by not remembering who I Am." The most realistic way to learn from an experiment is to become part of it, while being aware of nothing other than your experience. To make the experiment more fruitful, the concept of reincarnation was established. This provided a way in which each human could experience physical life from all possible perspectives and through all possible outcomes, thus richening experience. If life were only one, then your physical experience would be limited. You would never be able to truly know what it is to be human in every possible experience. I say possible because life is choices. Notice that each race and culture offers many different experiences and perspectives. Living one life is limitation, and being that we are the Source, we are unlimited! A dimension was needed to house the Source within disincarnate (dead to most people) humans. So, the fourth dimension was created for this purpose. A plane of existence where the "deceased could regroup and choose there next "bus" to the physical world. Yes, I said "choose." Every incarnation that we've had, we have chosen who our parents will be according, but not limited to the experiences that we need to experience in order to grow. I will explain further things about the fourth dimension that would be very beneficial for you to know!

A great learning tool was also activated. Scientists know it as Action and Reaction, others know it as Cause and Effect, and others as Karma. Let me clear up some things about this Law. I say Law because it takes place whether you accept it or not. Trust me, your disbelief in it wouldn't make an ounce of a difference. I don't mean to sound harsh when I say this, so If it seemed so, I apologize. To continue, this Law was not activated as a punishment. Remember that the Source has no interest in punishing itself for being! This Law is very appropriate inasmuch as it allows us to experience both giving and receiving. Without knowing one or the other, how could we truly learn? This Law gave us the opportunity to experience what we cause. What X does to Y, Y does to X. Does "you shall reap what you sew" sound familiar? There is no need to glorify the statement, but simply realize that the tool has been mentioned. Also realize that with this tool, humans have caused so much grief and agony! In the instant that you Cause, in that instant you call upon the Effect. The idea that you are being punished is only a way of domination through fear. The ignorance or non-acceptance of this Law has played a key factor in the rise and fall of every single empire that this planet has known. The boomerang always comes back, and not necessarily in the same lifetime! When a person, in his/her ignorance, is not aware of his/her origin and truth as a being, this person falls under the illusion of seeing others as different. By seeing others as different, this can be as superior or inferior to him/herself. When this occurs, the desire for domination and feeding of the ego is born. When this desire is not satisfied, it becomes unstoppable greed and anguish. Only under the illusion of separation can someone greed another, because seeing others as different promotes the thought of, "They have this and I don't." Without the illusion of separation, one sees everything as being one. Under the truth of oneness, one knows that if someone has something that one desires, all one must do is ask for it, hold that thought and feeling long enough (because things here do take time), and a harmonious way in which it may be obtained will present itself. This is not wishful thinking, it is a Universal Law, "Ask and you shall receive." The only caution that I do make, is to be careful with what you ask for. Asking for something that hinders someone else, or asking for the non-harmonious, will just be self-inflicted pain. If when you ask for something, you ask that it be within harmony for all, then it be known that it can only be harmonious. Later on I shall give you some suggestions for how to do this. I say suggestions because we are all our own Master. We are creative beings, and we must be creative. Ritual is only certain "death," of experiencing moment to moment life. When someone experiences the lack of harmony, they usually put the blame on life or "God." Many religions state, "Fear God. He will punish you for your sins." This statement of punishment is only true if one considers Humans as God, being a self-conscious fragment of the Source. However, if one views Humans as separate from the Source, than the statement is a lie, because people punish themselves.

During the course of planetary history, there have been Beings which have incarnated in the attempt to show humankind the road back to the Father/Mother Source. These beings taught Love instead of Hatred, Equality instead of Inequality, and Truth instead of Fanaticism and Illusion. Humankind, in its ignorance and blindness, rejected them, made them into martyrs, misunderstood them, and varied their teachings. Humankind continues to anchor itself to the limitations, and illusions outside of itself. It continues to let itself be guided by ego, instead of quieting itself and allowing itself to become anchored to the Truth within and be guided by Spirit. Whenever a person decides to search for him/herself within, he/she will re-cognize him/herself as the Source. After reaching this re-cognition, if this person accepts him/herself as the Divine Being that he/she is, then and only then will he/she be able to manifest his/her Divinity without limitations, and live Heaven on Earth. When someone sees the Divine in themselves, there is no way to not see the Divine in all of Creation! Again, the Law of Cause and Effect was not implemented as a punishing tool, but rather as a learning tool. If a being acts in Love, he/she will easily be able to see how this affects others. However, the lesson or experience is only complete when the same being receives it and experiences it. It works in the same fashion for those who act without Love. The Earth is school where each being goes through a series of experiences.

Every experience contains a lesson which, when understood, leads to learning. This learning leads to knowledge, and this knowledge, when applied harmoniously, becomes wisdom. On Earth there are three main types of ignorance. From least grave to most grave they are: a) not knowing, b) knowing and not using the knowledge, and c) knowing and using the knowledge non-harmoniously. For example, there are four towns. In each town, people are dying of starvation. Each town has an unlimited supply of seeds. In the first town, nobody knows what seeds can do, so they continue to starve. In the second town, only one person knows what seeds can do, but being afraid of responsibility, he does nothing at all. In the third town, only one person knows what seeds can do. This person tells the people that he will give them food if, and only if, they give him complete reign over the town. The people must all do what he says in return for the food. In the last town, there is only one person who knows what seeds can do. This person teaches everyone how to farm and make the seeds produce food, so that everyone may eat forever. He asks nothing in return, but that they teach each generation the way of farming. I ask you dear one, who is ignorant and who is wise?

Each lesson leads to learning. It is humankind as individuals who qualify their experiences as "good," and "bad." Let me say that "good" and "bad" are subjective, and not objective. What may be "good" to me may be "bad" to you. It is only personal perspective which gives something the label of "good" or "bad." When someone experiences something that they label "bad," they usually damn life and/or feel fear or hatred towards the circumstances. With this attitude, the person is turning their back on the experience. This only guarantees that the lesson will not be learned, and also guarantees that the experience will repeat itself until learned! Let me give a short example of the subjectivity of "good" and "bad." Let us say that you are in a room. In the middle of the room there is a small coffee table. I put a glass of water on the coffee table. Let us say that the glass of water represents an experience. When you stand on the right side of the table, your perspective of the glass is one of sadness, anger, fear, etc... When you stand directly in front of the table, your perspective of the glass is one of indifference, you don't care, you feel neutral. When you stand on the left side of the table, your perspective of the glass is one of joy, happiness, peace, harmony, etc... Now I will ask you a question. Did the experience change or did your perspective change? The experience remained the same, what changed was your perspective of the experience. You are always in control of the way you perceive anything, anytime, ALWAYS! Illusion will tell you that these things are beyond your control, however, it is time for you to step into your truth!

Moving Beyond Physicality

Each human being has many parts which compose him/her. By the way, I don't use him/her to establish some sort of ignorant superiority/inferiority concept of humans. There is no such thing as a superior/inferior gender. If the Source were not equally both, then one of them would not exist. I could use her/him, and it would be the same. To continue, a being who sees him/herself in a mirror, is only seeing a millionth part of him/herself. Each human, apart from having a physical body, has:

A. An Emotional body which receives, feels/interprets, and transmits energy of this frequency, or kind. (I will explain frequency, and other aspects of universal energy later on).

B. A Mental body which receives, thinks/interprets, and transmits energy of this frequency. Let me say that the brain does not think. The brain is only a linear computer of data sent and received from the Mental body.

C. A Spiritual body which defines you as the Source, and links you with other spheres or dimensions, simultaneously.

These are the four bodies which people have termed "lower bodies." People speculate about the location of the Soul. Whether it is in the Emotional body or the Mental body. I am indifferent to this speculation. To know that the soul is within the four lower bodies will suffice. Other people have the term "Causal body" or "Body of first Cause." They say that the soul is within this body. I will just use the four bodies that I have mentioned before. The Physical body, is the lowest of the four. It is the most dense of them. There are higher bodies, but I will let you discover them. Knowledge of the four lower bodies will slowly reveal the higher bodies to you. We all have these bodies, and this connection to higher dimensions, all the time. To say that you are connected to the Source would be ignorant, being that you are the Source! The difference that may exist between one body and another is given by its quality, function, and vibratory frequency. As a matter of fact, all of Creation has these three variables of Energy. As I stated earlier, I will explain this further, later on. We are constantly in many dimensions, simultaneously. Very few people are aware of this. When we sleep, there are parts of our being that, in a higher dimension, are planning what will become our experience of future. This is the case which leads to what people have termed "Deja Vous." For those who have not heard this term, it is a term used to label the experience of being somewhere and feeling that you've been there before. It is also the label given to the experience of talking to someone and knowing what they will say next because you "dreamed" it. In truth, it is not a dream, but the simple fact of something planned that happened. When this "remembering the dream" happens, it is a clue that something beyond coincidence is happening. This reaffirms that we are not victims of life, nor others, but of ourselves! Some of you might be saying, "Well, that's just great. All this time, I've been creating this mess in my life." Well, yes!

It is not something for you to feel upset about. To know the root of a "problem" is to have the ability to "solve" it. Now that you have been informed of your outstanding creativity (and it has been so real, hasn't it?), you can start taking responsibility for everything your life, and I do mean everything, and begin to create harmony. Only when one accepts ones experiences as ones own creation, can one consciously take control of ones life again. Only with a lot of patience and Love, can a person understand why he/she has created the experiences that he/she has! When this is understood, then a person will find themselves before a great challenge. This challenge I speak of is the challenge of trusting and having faith in oneself.

When someone accepts and trusts him/herself as a Co-Creator, then he/she can see beyond the illusion which surrounds him/herself. When someone sees beyond this illusion, he/she will see truth. This truth will light up the way to the conscious return to the Source. When I say "to the Source," I am referring to the journey that each being has until the discovering of his/her truth. In the dis- covering of this truth, this being will re-enter the unlimited awareness of the totality that she/he has always been, is, and will be. This being will be aware of being Source, and the concept of separation will fade before this truth. Separation is the illusion, and the blind become all seeing again!

Oh, beloved friends, brothers, sisters,

The time is nigh, the moment at hand. I look within and contemplate in everlasting awe, the magnificence of divine life which brews and spews forth in a radiant shower of heart-melting Love. I salute thee, oh myriads of servants of peace!

What do we know, and are we what we know, or do we simply carry this knowledge? I salute thee, oh mother earth, mother amongst mothers. Oh celestial globe of peace that you shall become, my life is in devotion of your worthy, loving cause. Tears of joy pour from these eyes that have incessantly looked upon your own face, and penetrated thy essence in the inner desire to understand thee.

Oh angels of divine grace, shower everyone of us, your kin in Love. Oh how I invoke thee, with this very breath of life that I take. I open my heart in a no effort to allow for the welcoming of your gracious presence in, through, and around me. Have we truly understood our nature, and have we truly sought understanding, or a mere and shallow fulfillment of curiosity? Oh angel of truth, illuminate my every step, and invoke thee I will, as my protector and benefactor in the name of the Father/Mother Source of all that was, is, and ever will be. I step into the infinite light that I Am and in this step, accept my promise to be kept to this Earth, my home. I step into the awareness of my essence, and awaken gracefully, and ever so subtly, and move swiftly as water in the creek, filling this ocean of everlasting peace, that breatheth the radiance of the holiest and most radiant one!

To thee, oh Source, my Source, I Am thy servant. Bless me with this opportunity to serve thee, and surrender myself to you I do, with everlasting pleasure. May my deeds be knownst unto you, and you alone. Let not my being be deceived by the illusion, so ever present around me. Oh divine eye that sees all that is, grant me endless vision of truth.

I stand tall amongst Lords and in my standing, cry out the cry of imminent victory. I Am the Ascended Master that I've been, Am, and Always will be! I cry out to the heavens and reclaim the glory of the Source, and bring this glory here, as a humble messenger of Peace, Love, and ever so bountiful Harmony!

Oh my Source, precious Source, creator and created, bow unto you I must, and ask with tender heart and attentive mind, for the blessing of all life, here and everywhere. Oh my goodness, to contemplate myself, I find you, and in this finding, wake up to the universal truths of Love. Let no being starve of Love! Honor me with the task of being your vehicle. May I become the magnet which uniteth your children, and bringest them into your everlasting and ever so radiant presence. Bless my brothers and sisters in Love, and keep them nurtured in your sacred bosom of divine wisdom and truth. Oh, I cry, I cry to the Angels of wind, earth, water, and fire. Let the winds take this seed of love, and may the harvest be fruitful. I have no voice, yet I Am in and out of all sound. I have no name, yet I use any name which serves my divine purpose. I have no shape, yet I am within and without all shapes. I am as the wind, which can only be seen by seeing beyond that which the wind touches. Where there is Love, there you will find me. In silence, I speak.........
