What is the purpose of our lives? Since time immemorial, people have asked themselves this question. Attempts to answer it have produced volumes full of many philosophical and God-learned texts. The Ascended Masters have provided invaluable keys to understanding this cosmic mystery - keys that can open doors to fulfill our soul's longing for oneness with Spirit.
Knowing where we came from gives us greater insight into our reason for being. This knowledge, placed within us at the time of creation, can help us unlock the secrets of our individual destiny. It also reveals our true nature as spiritual beings who have a vast amount of light energy at our disposal. This lesson distills the essence of the Ascended Masters' teachings on the purpose of life's sacred adventure. We will begin by examining how to draw fully from the cosmic energy that was with us in the beginning - and is with us today. Untangling the secret of creation.
Who has never once looked up at the sky above our heads on a clear night or evening and marveled at the mysteries of the universe? It is easy to think yourself insignificant when you see such endless expanses. And yet, the opposite is also true, that the heavens hold the secret of the greatness of our beings. The Ascended Masters have given us a wonderful vision of the connection between all le-ven and the supreme importance of the relationship of each individual to the Divine whole.
Scientific research alone will not uncover the Master Plan and our place in it. While modern science has begun to confirm certain elements of theories of ancient creation - such as those of Hinduism and mystical Judaism - we can only begin to unravel the mystery of existence by going to the place where God dwells. Here we can discover our unique mission that can transform the world into a better one, and accelerate the development of our souls. Both the blueprint for our mission and the light energy, which we need to accomplish it, were placed within us when we were first created. Therefore, the first step to understanding this innate potential is to go back to the source, our Divine parents.Father-Mother God gives birth to millions of sons and daughters!
At the center of the universe lies the center of all physical-spiritual creation - the Great Central Sun - . From this spiritual sun have sprung solar systems, galaxies and billions of sons and daughters of God. In these teachings, the word "God" refers not to a being similar to man, but to the omnipresent Spirit of light, love and power, who pervades the universe and is the source of all life. When God is referred to by "he" or "him" it is only for convenience. Spirit is the masculine polarity of the Godhead. But, for creation to take place, the feminine polarity must also be present. Therefore, by necessity, the Creator is both Father and Mother. And so our Divine Parents are referred to as Father-Mother God.
In the beginning, God sounded the Word, which created the sparks of creation. When He said "Let there be Light," there was light. The Father-Mother God allowed the light to grow even greater by giving birth to individual Spirit-sparks. Each of these sparks was a precise representation of the energy of God's being. This energy is in perfect polarity - plus and minus, yin and yang, male and female, Alpha and Omega. Thus, in the beginning, we were created as pure energy, in the image and likeness of God. By creating us, God was able to multiply His love and light.
Another name for the Spirit-spark ( Spirit spark) is the I AM Presence. This is derived from the holy name of God given to Moses from the burning bush on Mount Sinai. When Moses asked God what his name was so that he could tell it to the people of Israel, God replied "I AM THAT I AM" "I AM WHO I AM." Therefore, the Presence of God individualized for each of us is called the I AM Presence. It is the highest part of our being, made of the same essence as the great I AM THAT I AM (I AM THAT I AM) that is God. Our I AM Presence (I AM Presence) is a field of energy of the consciousness of God that lingers above us and nourishes our bodies, minds and souls. It is fed by the light of the Great Central Sun.
"We are one," "We are one" is a common colloquialism used by brothers and sisters of light all over the world. In reality, this is exactly the case. The I AM Presence (I AM Presence) of each of us connects us to everyone else and to God. Although God has multiplied His Presence billions of times, He is still an undivided whole. Just as 1 x 1 still equals 1, God x God x God still equals God. There is a web of light woven between all people of light on earth. In reality, we are never really alone, but part of the one manifestation of God.
The I AM Presence that was with us at our creation is still with us - even if it doesn't always feel that way. Our dense heavy bodies are far from the lightness of Spirit that we experienced in the beginning. Because we have become so accustomed to our material existence, we often forget that in these bodies we are high, powerful spiritual beings. What was once a natural state of Being, without any effort of strength, now requires work to even approach it. One way to experience this lightness of Spirit is to let the AUM resonate. Let the AUM resonate and return to the Heart of Creation.
