THE ANSWER 8

p. 560-563

This first section here describes what is sometimes called “Going through awkward.” It is that normal and predictable stage when we are learning something new. Let me emphasize it is natural and that there is really no predictability about how long that stage will last. The greatest difficulty we can run into is that our mind or our ego consciousness will express itself in very impatient and perfectionistic ways. The ego has the expectation, false though it is, that once we have the intent of performing a new task or creating something on a higher level of vibration that we should be able to do that immediately.

I realize that for some people who are gifted in certain ways that this period of adjustment might seem to be nonexistent, however for most of us when we are learning to identify ourselves in a different way there will probably be the stage of uncomfortableness and awkwardness.

This really is not very different from, let us say, learning a new piece of music or learning any other new skill. We normally will not fall into it right away. There will be a learning curve or a sense of awkwardness and discomfort..

We need to be aware in these times of transition that the ego, which feels very threatened by all of this, will throw up its own distractions and objections. It is not a time to get into a fight or struggle with the ego, but it is time to recognize that the ego’s negative input is a reflection of its own fear, its own fear of annihilation.
Much of this section is dedicated to reinforcing the movement and direction of your soul. We are all learning to identify ourselves more and more with the divine self.

A struggle and a learning that I have become aware of is in the realm of perception. I tend to perceive myself as more in alignment with my personality self rather than my divine self. It is very easy for me to accept that perception as being true. As I sit with that I've become aware that this perception of limitation is coming from my ego or my limited self. In other words I am allowing that aspect of myself to dictate my consciousness.

Now the flip side of this is to ask myself what would it be like to perceive myself through my divine self? Usually immediately what happens when I ask a question like that is that my personality self, my limited self begins to take over without me even realizing. It might even give me answers to that question, “Oh you will look like this or you will look like that you will be filled with light” all of which are very nice answers, but they are coming from an aspect of self that has no clue of my true essence.

So I asked the question again “What would it be like to perceive myself through my divine self?” What I must do now is disengage from the thinking mind, let my mind do what my mind does, but do not listen to it now because the answer to that question must come from my divine nature and nowhere else. It is what the book calls “being in your knowing” and being in your knowing does not mean defining something, it means being in it. For instance, there is a huge difference between knowing or having an idea that you are loved as compared to the experience of being loved. There is a big difference between commenting on a beautiful sunset as compared to that split second when you are simply overcome by the magnificence of it all.

“Am I now willing to allow myself to become who and what I am in responsibility to my own name, I am Word, I am Word, I am Word? If I am choosing to say yes to this, I call into myself the promise of the Christ, of the Creative Self to align me to this choice in all aspects of my life. And that makes me in knowing the one who claims himself, herself, in ‘I am knowing I am Word.’ As I know this, I make myself known and my frequency inhabits me in Divine Knowing in its creations. I am now chosen. I am now choosing. And I accept the responsibility of my choice.”

We are choosing!!! Make that choice conscious!


“I am accepting the choice and the responsibility of the choice to call myself into manifestation as my own Divine Self. I say yes! I say yes! I say yes! Word I am Word through this intention. Word I am Word.”

Blessings!!—We will NOT be meeting 12/24; we WILL be meeting 12/31.

Have a wonderful Christmas!!!!!!

DOMINION OF LOVE 5

PERHAPS I AM BEING VERY LAZY THIS WEEK, BUT i was touched by this lesson and how it approached the material in our Sunday class from a different direction. The Dynamics of Giving and Receiving from Ram Dass//Posted March 10, 2017 What yogis begin to do is to change their way of thinking in order to look at the universe differently. In order to do this, there is a period of time where they must pull back from the drama in order to be able to see it. It’s like a moratorium, it’s a time when you stand back, like you go on a vacation. It’s actually extremely hard work by the way, very exacting and very, very difficult work. Now when most of us think of yogis, we think of somebody sitting like a famous yogi, like Milarepa, sitting up in a cave in the mountains, cross-legged and naked. There was snow, and ants were eating him, and the only food he took was nettle soup, and he ate it for so long he developed a green nettle fur all over him. But he was busy freeing himself fr...

THE ANSWER 11 and DOMINION IN LOVE 1

This is just beautiful and says it all: “Why was I born? That is the next question. You were born to come into yourselves as knowing yourselves as loved, and as conscious active participants in your creation. You were born to stand in your knowing, to accept yourself as loved, and to see your fellows in their own perfection. You were born to create wonder, to live a life of splendor and of joy. You were created to come into your own knowing in the Son-ship of your own divinity and to claim it in full experience. You were born to say, “I am Word,” in whatever language you choose, in whatever vocabulary is truthful to you. You were chosen, you are choosing, all are. “I am Word through all that I see before me.” We are choosing you today to call to yourselves those things you need to move forward on this journey. Imagine yourself, right now, standing in a room. It is a gateway room. It is a room that leads you to a new room that has never been seen before, that has never bee...

DOMINION OF LOVE 5

A brief review of the past that is pertinent to the present.   “Paul is asking, “Where is the Christ in me? How do I identify this part of me that you speak of?” And we will tell you now. The Christ within you is a frequency that is aligned within the heart center and it glows like a flame and it brings to it that vibration and frequency that co-resonates with it. And that which it brings to co-resonance is the Creator. If you understand that your light is a piece of the great light, then you have the beginning of the understanding of your Christed Self. If you understand that this light, in its blooming, in its flame, in its action, is the action of the Christ within man, you have a deeper understanding. If you begin to understand that the action of this Christ, once and for all, is to become realized as man in completeness, then you have the mystery of the Christ revealed to you. And the mystery of the Christ, and how it shall be revealed, will be the causation of the action...
