He was letting us know we were in for transformation on the planet,\u00a0in which\u00a0more and more we are the same or we have the opportunity to be on the spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>What does that mean?\u00a0 It means we have a bandwidth.\u00a0 The extremes of it pull the anchors toward the positive and negative polarities.\u00a0 What I am seeing is the alpha and omega moment. When that was done as a creation, it became something that was done in a temporary way, not the eternal way, which is the spiritual way.<\/p>\n<p>When we talk about Soul consciousness, we talk about Soul Transcendence \u2013 something that has no beginning and no end.\u00a0 Being in a creation that has a beginning and an end is an illusion.\u00a0 It\u2019s not real.\u00a0 We would engage in what it is until it is no longer necessary.\u00a0 That can be God\u2019s intention.<\/p>\n<p>God\u2019s intention, God\u2019s will,\u00a0can be very powerful.\u00a0 It has movement.\u00a0 I relate to movement as the living consciousness, living love or the living truth.\u00a0 That is one of the miracles of creation.\u00a0 It is alive and still creating.<\/p>\n<p>We have been told in the teachings that we are in something that is already created.\u00a0 It is done.\u00a0 You may ask, \u201cSo what am I doing\u00a0here?\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Well, are\u00a0<em><u>you<\/u><\/em>\u00a0done?\u00a0 The Traveler asks that kind of question.<\/p>\n<p>One way to relate to the pattern of the Traveler is there is a hierarchy, a dimensionality, and we are in that.\u00a0 Then it becomes a determination.\u00a0 We make a decision.\u00a0 That opportunity is present for those who choose to be a spiritual warrior.\u00a0 What would that be?\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0We would take on the consciousness of the Holy Spirit.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0You may ask, \u201cHow do I do that?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It is the willingness to live in the truth, the almighty absolute truth that is eternal in nature.\u00a0 It has this quality that I\u2019m calling movement.\u00a0 It is changing and transformational.\u00a0 That would be another way to know it.<\/p>\n<p>When we come into the psychic material nature, that has a constant.\u00a0 But it is not a constant when it\u2019s done or removed.\u00a0 It is continuous when it\u2019s in place.\u00a0 The\u00a0constant\u00a0would be change.<\/p>\n<p>When we start discerning between the change that is eternal in nature, which is a living truth and love, it can release the change that is temporal in nature.\u00a0 It is our willingness to be what that is completely, so we let go of the psychic material nature, the human nature.\u00a0 We let it go and release it so completely that we become one with our eternal nature.<\/p>\n<p>I am experiencing it and seeing it.\u00a0 It can be the slightest averting in how we look.\u00a0 When we are in the material form, it will be something like oblique.\u00a0 If I am looking in one direction psychically materially, I\u2019ll be brought into the psychic material perception.<\/p>\n<p>We learn how to be open to seeing spiritually.\u00a0 We learn to release how we see in a limited way to come into seeing everything all at once.\u00a0 A version of this is in the cosmic mirror.\u00a0 Whatever could test us, whatever the negative power still has available, is in its arsenal.<\/p>\n<p>What is an arsenal for?\u00a0 Weapons.\u00a0 What is that about?\u00a0 I would call that unnecessary experience.\u00a0 It\u2019s as if the negative power is going to do destruction.\u00a0\u00a0But that is a limitation.\u00a0 At some point, it is done, and it is no more.\u00a0 If we release that, we would be in the consciousness of peace\u00a0in which\u00a0we have no againstness.<\/p>\n<p>The test would be in the cosmic mirror.\u00a0 Do you have any againstness towards your creation?\u00a0 Any or all of it in any moment?\u00a0 If you do, the cosmic mirror is going to show it to you.\u00a0 It is going to show it to you in the way it was formed and how it was done.<\/p>\n<p>When we enter the psychic material nature, we enter what I term the \u201cveil.\u201d\u00a0 It is as if a curtain comes into our awareness that has a characteristic of blocking, restricting or not allowing our direct knowing.\u00a0 That is an illusion of itself.\u00a0 When we wake up in what the mind can do in all the forms of psychic nature that can bring limitation and\u00a0we\u00a0realize, \u201cI am not this.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0We\u00a0come into a willingness to be open.<\/p>\n<p>In my first Insight I experience, the first exercise involved a mingle with everyone participating with the question, \u201cAre you willing to be open?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There were four options for responding:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I\u2019m willing to be open,<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019m not willing to be open,<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019m not sure if I\u2019m willing to be open, or<\/li>\n<li>I don\u2019t care to say if I\u2019m willing to be open.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It was a preparation, asking, \u201cHow willing are you to be open?\u201d And we are going to find out.<\/p>\n<p>There is the negative power.\u00a0 Are you willing to be open to what the creation is, so you do not contract?\u00a0 That is one way to move through the \u201clast frontier,\u201d the etheric level.\u00a0 What would be reflected to us are our remaining tests.<\/p>\n<p>With the one holding the keys to the Traveler consciousness into the Soul level, there is a \u2018<em>wayshower<\/em>\u2019, a \u2018<em>wayknower<\/em>\u2019, like, \u201cI am the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Who would have the authority to say that?\u00a0 That has to be God consciousness.\u00a0 If you are with the one who would take your hand, speak to you, having the power to call your name out spiritually \u2013 that would be about your openness to hear who you are spiritually and the voice that can speak it to you directly.<\/p>\n<p>This is powerful.\u00a0 It is in the voice and the sound.\u00a0 It is in that frequency of the one who holds it.\u00a0 We have been given the keys that are called the names.\u00a0 Those keys are allowed to stand in the presence of the one who is the true name.\u00a0\u00a0 It is also a key to test anyone.\u00a0 Can anyone stand in that presence as you call it out?\u00a0 You have the key. This is talked about in initiation information.<\/p>\n<p>I am saying things that are at a high level, even if someone just got here to the teachings of MSIA, even as a custodian.\u00a0 Remember that name for a job\u00a0in which someone\u00a0cleaned things up in a building? It\u2019s a nice name.\u00a0\u00a0If a custodian is in here right now, perhaps they entered because they are curious about what we are really doing as spiritual warriors.\u00a0 Now, here we go as custodians of spirit.<\/p>\n<p>Baruch Bashan<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><u>Blessing of Listening to the Lord<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dear Lord,<\/p>\n<p>We call You into our presence.<\/p>\n<p>For each one who\u2019s gathered here and hearing my voice,<\/p>\n<p>that may hear Your voice in my voice.<\/p>\n<p>And also hear their own voice in Your voice.<\/p>\n<p>That we all seek the highest good,<\/p>\n<p>that we are here to awaken with our soul.<\/p>\n<p>And that You are also present in our inner consciousness<\/p>\n<p>as the light, the truth, and the way.<\/p>\n<p>And that we can see as we open our vision, as we also hear as we listen,<\/p>\n<p>the higher dimensions of the soul, that we can see great beauty.<\/p>\n<p>And all of our senses come alive in this glory and beauty,<\/p>\n<p>and for anyone who is here that has fear and doubt<\/p>\n<p>or carries self-judgment,<\/p>\n<p>You reveal Your grace.<\/p>\n<p>That You are here to lift all,<\/p>\n<p>and all who come into this presence and follow this way,<\/p>\n<p>love the truth and find the truth that is always loving.<\/p>\n<p>So Your way is kind and also strong.<\/p>\n<p>That it takes great will to see the face of God.
