Unity or Individuality?

Even though unity is surely the greatest thing possible, people still have the sense of wanting to decide on their own. Our spiritual concepts of nirvana, unity, eternity, and constancy seem boring to some, because there is no change in activity. We want to be doing something different all the time. But if we were to experience how God wills us to be, there is no way we would decide not to have it that way. It is the highest joy and love that is incomparable to anything experienced in the physical world. However, that still seems like we have no choice. But yes, we do!

Our situation was created because of the desire to live individually. God's Heaven has always been and always will be, but when this false desire arose in our consciousness, God allowed it to happen. This existence is the effect of that thought, and remains as a lesson for us to return back to the Source. We had complete freedom to do whatever we wanted with our creativity, and we created a whole universe from it. We started playing with form and projecting ourselves into form to experiment with it. From there, we started becoming too distracted by our world of form and forgot our inherent unity with God. We started identifying ourselves with the bodies we made and lost sight of our spiritual existence. Our desire for individuality made us overlook our unity.

So what do we do now? Individuality is great, but it is never better than what God wills for us. As long as we focus on separation and individuality, we will be afraid. Luckily, God set us up instantly after our mad idea for individuality. He created the Holy Spirit to bring us back to Him whenever we are quiet enough to listen. He also made it so we can use our individuality as a gateway for others to return back to the unity of God. This is what Jesus did, and his assistance is known as Christ consciousness. We can all use this when we return to the unity of God and start loving instead of fearing. We will then know that we are the Son of God, and that we have always remained in the perfect state of unity behind our made-up world of separation.

The Power of Satan

If we must use the word Satan, we must also define his power. We do experience a lot of negativity and fear on our planet, and so it seems to some that a force is manipulating us. There is the belief that we become possessed, that God abandons us, and that we are powerless because of Satan. Satan is known as God's opposing force, and there is spiritual warfare going on... that we have to fight off the devil. Who would've known that Satan is actually powerless?

Satan is not an entity that can actually do harm. He has no power at all over anything. He is really an illusion - the ego in action. We are the only one's that cause evil and pain, and this never happens to only others but firstly ourselves. If you had a strong, evil will, you would be putting yourself in your own hell.

The mind is a very powerful device, but when used through your ego, it can be very hurtful. I have experienced this in the hospital when I was at the apex of my manic cycle, and I became so self-destructive that I became paranoid. I was in hell, and I wasn't able to get out until I realized that I put myself inside that illusion of pain. So using the words Satan and the Devil suggests that this force is coming from outside of yourself. It is not at all! You are making the pain, and you are completely in control of it.

Anyone who works "evil" has the weakest power. For the ones who have divine, spiritual will, or "good," all power is theirs. Since their laws are love, light, and wisdom, it unites instead of separates and destroys. Those who follow these laws are all-loving, omnipresent, all-knowing, all-seeing and perfect. They can bless and heal all while enjoying the bliss of God, can remain ever-youthful and immortal, teleport, change form, bilocate (actually, they can be in as many places as they want at the same time), and instantly manifest anything they desire. Their possibilities are endless.

These powers can seem scary if their will is evil, but it is a natural law that self-destructive will is powerless. To be omnipotent, you must have the highest good. Do not be afraid anymore of demons, the devil, hell, or Satan, as they are all your own illusion and don't even exist.

Humanity is Divinity

There is a small struggle that people have with deciding if we are human or divine. With Jesus, some think that he has to be one or the other; either a divine being or a human being. There is also the belief that to be divine we need to mortify our physical body and refuse to eat. There is also the belief that sex is wrong - that's why traditional Christian priests cannot marry. The church also didn't accept some of the gospels that hinted that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene. Why can't we be divine and still be human?

The divine can be easily applicable to our lives. We are truly divine, and it is only the ego that makes ridiculous demands. Everything of the ego is not truly human, but ignorance and corruption of our natural divinity. We can live without it and still be married and have children. We do not have to abuse the body and refuse to eat; we can have a healthy diet. We can be a householder with a profession, and at the same time express divine love to all, enjoy the bliss of our core being, praying, forgiving, and healing incessantly.

For the people who don't believe in their own divinity, then they will live that way. If they laugh at the ideas like immortality, "miracles," and freedom from all limitations, they will never encounter any of that. Yes, they will be right - we are not divine. They will be completely unaware of the subtle, hidden divinity because of the fears, grievances, and doubts of their ego.

For those who have seen or heard about their true, unlimited state of being, don't deny it. You will go far enough to experience it yourself as long as you unfold your unconditional, uniting love constantly. Yes, you will be right - we are undoubtedly divine. You will incorporate that freedom into your life and still live normally and simply.

Still, either your prayer for limitation will be fulfilled, or your prayer for illumination will be answered. Are we divine human beings, or are we not?

Philosophy and Claims vs. Science and Practice

Some of these posts have only been claims or philosophies, while others have been techniques that can be practiced without any intellect involved. There are some authors that talk about ascended masters or siddhas doing unbelievable things, and we aren't even sure if it's true or not. We also have different religions that have seemingly contradictory philosophies while they're actually all contacting the One behind each other's backs. But how do we know that's not made up as well? Well, the important thing is the science of religion; the practice that leads to the truths of philosophy.

This is a very important point, because it pulls away from intellectual claims and goes straight to the experience. Many people choose a religious standpoint to intellectually destroy the "competition." Hey, they could be right, but they are not even sure that what they say is true because they haven't experienced it. The arguing really stops through divine experience - you are no longer worried of being destroyed by claims when you feel the Source as strongly as a slap in the face.

Words can never explain spirituality perfectly. When different religious figures attempt to explain their experience, they still look contradictory to each other! However, it is never the case that these spiritual masters are going to argue - sorry, Jesus wouldn't jump Krishna or vice versa because you think they should! Most likely, they're buds! The reason is because they have found the same thing. How do we know? By their fruits you shall know them.

The important things from these religions are the techniques, teachings, methods, practice, science - not necessarily the philosophy or the stories. This is what has made the Zen masters so successful: their religion is completely the practice of zazen meditation and simple living. Eckhart Tolle wrote a great book, the Power of Now, by bringing together East and West and avoiding religious terms like God. Seriously, the technique of staying in the present moment is enough to make the divine connection.

Osho used an interesting example of why the "how" of science is more important than the "why" and "what" of philosophy. Let's say a blind man asks, "What is light?" Responding with words like "bright" and "illuminating" doesn't help at all. Instead, offering a technique to practice in order to see the light is what is important. Things like loving everyone unconditionally, working with no attachment to the results, staying in the present moment, meditation - this is the science of religion. This is what should be focused on. All philosophy and stories about religious figures will prove true or false through inner sight and divine experience. Keep on practicing - if you do, you will eventually let go of all limitations.

Soul and Spirit

People have explained soul and spirit in different ways, but I would like to state how I define them. Some say that they are the same, but I will point out why I define them differently. Basically, there is one eternal spirit, and it is constantly kept at maximum joy, bliss, knowledge, and love. However, there are many souls, each thinking and acting on their own, all with their own free will. But the existence of souls are illusory, since we are all truly one in spirit.

Our true existence as the one spirit of God has always been, and always will be. This can never change, and we should be grateful of that because if it could, that means we could die. God wills us to be this way for our own safety. God created us as one spirit, and he knows that it is what is best for us. It is our true free will to remain perfect in spirit.

The soul never existed, and never will. It is all an illusion that we have requested. It is the request from God for free will to be afraid. Luckily, he still has kept our reality of spirit intact, and we will not know it until we accept it. The illusion of the soul was made from ego, or individuality. With the soul and the ego came the division of planes of existence and states of mind where we can dream we are. We will not become anointed, or Christ, until we discover our true existence. We can then appear in the universe of the soul as Christ and assist the Holy Spirit to awaken other souls to the reality of spirit.

This is the meaning of life. We must understand that we cannot find eternal happiness without God. Souls are always afraid until they find the spirit of God. Awakening to spirit, or our ascension, is just the beginning of our journey. We will then appear as an individualized soul in the world of separation to assist other souls to wake up. It is a very, very long process, but it will be effortless once you identify yourself as the one spirit, as you will see the end and enjoy its bliss. The world of separation can no longer hurt you when you know that it is illusion. You will see heaven everywhere.

Saint Germain

There are Ascended Masters that could also be considered perfected beings like the siddhas. Jesus is definitely one of them, and there are many more. They work out of our sight, trying to awaken the Son of God. We already know about the siddhas of the East like Mahavatar Babaji, but there are Western ones, too.



Saint Germain is an Ascended Master that has been around for centuries. He primarily assists America in entering the Golden Age, where we will become a loving example for the rest of the world. Guy Ballard encountered Saint Germain while on a hike up Mount Shasta in northern California. Guy was suddenly aware of a hiker scaling the mountain behind him, just as he became thirsty. The hiker offered to fill his cup, and as he was handed the cup, he instantly filled it with a strange, creamy liquid. Guy took it, and was amazed to find it quite refreshing and at the same time feeling energized by an "electric current" through his body. The hiker explained how he was able to manifest anything from the Universal, and he then revealed himself in his divinity as Ascended Master Saint Germain.

Ever since that first encounter, Guy Ballard met more Ascended Masters, their hidden retreats in locations like Yellowstone, and remarkable crystals, stones, gold, light-forms, and other technologies. Yellowstone was explained as being named after a stone that contained yellow crystals and a glowing blue flame in the center. Guy Ballard also learned about ancient civilizations like Atlantis and the 70,000 year old Sahara Desert civilization. This ancient civilization was during the Golden Age, and Saint Germain reassures us that this will happen again very soon in America.

These civilizations were so much more advanced than our current ones because they identified themselves with the God Self within them. Unfortunately, their downfalls came from ignorance and the desires of the senses. Even though they were governed by multiple Ascended Masters, they slowly became blinded from their inner Truth. The Ascended Masters needed to consequentially leave from them so they can learn from their mistakes.

All of this might sound to you like it was made up, but Saint Germain gives us instruction on how to bring out our inner reality of our God Self. There is an organization called the "I AM" Activity that has 13 volumes of teachings and Guy Ballard's experiences. It is very, very reassuring. I recommend reading the first book, "Unveiled Mysteries."
