The following article is taken from a seminar John Morton delivered\u00a0in Madrid, Spain in September 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We focus on spiritual awareness, and there is a line in this movement. There has always been somebody in the body on the planet doing the movement of spiritual inner awareness.\u00a0\u00a0It is not about an organization and it\u2019s not about a personage.\u00a0\u00a0Jesus said, \u201cGreater is he within you, than he that is in the world.\u201d (KJV 1 John: 4:4) That is how I look at how we do this \u2013 from within.\u00a0\u00a0Do we need an organization?\u00a0\u00a0My point of view?\u00a0\u00a0No.\u00a0\u00a0Could an organization help us?\u00a0\u00a0Could somebody help you?<\/p>\n

Consider if you had somebody who could show you what you are looking for.\u00a0\u00a0Not something fake or fraudulent, but someone who could show you what you\u2019re looking for and seeking.\u00a0\u00a0In your life, you are looking for this.\u00a0\u00a0Then consider there could be a guide, someone who says, \u201cCome on, I\u2019ll show you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s how I relate to it.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s far more than information.\u00a0\u00a0If you are seeking information, good luck.\u00a0\u00a0I don\u2019t know that it can come from information.\u00a0\u00a0We need to have the experience.\u00a0\u00a0The experience is the way to conscious knowing.\u00a0\u00a0We can know it without even having to have the experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I find that the experience is eliminating what I don\u2019t need to be aware of.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s like removing what is foggy or unclear, sometimes considered an obstruction, restriction or transgression.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cI moved off my path. I somehow got distracted and lost my way.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0All of this is something that can lead to who we are, often by the choice to let it go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It may be, \u201cThis is unnecessary experience.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s not working.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0We each come with a sense of, \u201cI didn\u2019t mean to lose my way or try to lose my way.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0Maybe we did some anticipation, which became expectation.\u00a0\u00a0We didn\u2019t follow by watching.\u00a0\u00a0We put in something imported from expectations or opinions.\u00a0\u00a0This is quite common.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the world, there is a practical way.\u00a0\u00a0If you are thirsty, what does that tell you?\u00a0\u00a0\u201cI want some water.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0Does everybody know thirst?\u00a0\u00a0We have that in common.\u00a0\u00a0When we\u2019re thirsty, and then have dehydration in the extreme, that can be a form of losing our way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the things we teach is practical spirituality.\u00a0\u00a0John-Roger put it like this, \u201cTake care of yourself.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0Everybody.\u00a0\u00a0We all have the responsibility to take care of ourselves.\u00a0\u00a0Have enough water and oxygen so the physical can be a springboard or launchpad.\u00a0\u00a0We want to progress, to go forward in who we are.\u00a0\u00a0If we\u2019re dysfunctional at the physical level, it makes it more difficult to be in harmony with the spirit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We do this from the inside out.\u00a0\u00a0Remember that it is inside of you \u2013 within.\u00a0\u00a0Seek it there.\u00a0\u00a0Also, we do it simultaneously from the top down.\u00a0\u00a0The top goes to the highest consciousness.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In this world, we can have powerful reflections of God consciousness.\u00a0\u00a0I invite you to check that within you.\u00a0\u00a0What is coming into your conscious awareness?\u00a0\u00a0Is it in the consciousness of who you are within?\u00a0\u00a0I locate that in your heart.\u00a0\u00a0The wisdom foundation is in the heart.\u00a0\u00a0We can still have a beautiful mind. Whatever gets in your mind, check if it\u2019s in your heart.\u00a0\u00a0If your mind goes away from your heart, stop.\u00a0\u00a0It can be just like that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the practices we do is spiritual exercise.\u00a0\u00a0I look at it as how we worship.\u00a0\u00a0We worship within.\u00a0\u00a0But if that ever becomes, \u201cI\u2019m divine but you\u2019re not,\u201d you are off.<\/span><\/p>\n

If we knew anyone to the level of who they are, we would know it in God\u2019s love.\u00a0\u00a0I hope that sounds personal in the way a father, mother, daughter or son would be personal.\u00a0\u00a0Who is in the position of authority?\u00a0\u00a0The one in the higher consciousness.\u00a0\u00a0If you are going to seek the authority in your life, go all the way.\u00a0\u00a0Go to the highest God.\u00a0\u00a0That is who we pray to.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you know you prayed to the highest God? If it is in your heart, you are heard all the way to the highest God.\u00a0\u00a0How do you know that?\u00a0\u00a0Because God is in your heart.\u00a0\u00a0When you look in your heart, God is there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is what I get about why there is inhumanity, violence and all the rest in this world.\u00a0\u00a0We forget.\u00a0\u00a0If we remembered who we are, we wouldn\u2019t hurt anyone.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s that simple.\u00a0\u00a0Something would not allow us to hurt who we are.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Regardless of where or how you are physically, you can do spiritual exercise.\u00a0\u00a0A key to that is your intention to invoke the highest consciousness, called the highest good.\u00a0\u00a0We also call that the highest God.\u00a0\u00a0The intention is to be willing to come into that awareness and let go of what would restrict or block your spiritual awareness.\u00a0\u00a0This is where patience comes in.<\/span><\/p>\n

John-Roger was teaching us about \u201cLet go and let God.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0He talked about letting go as relaxing physically and in the mind.\u00a0\u00a0At the unconscious level, if I\u2019m not conscious of it, how do I relax it?\u00a0\u00a0Stay open.\u00a0\u00a0Here is the teaching that would encourage you \u2013 you\u2019re not given anything you can\u2019t handle.\u00a0\u00a0If you are open, whatever happens comes in a way you can handle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Consider what\u2019s being addressed is your soul.\u00a0\u00a0We eventually drop the body and the other bodies that relate to the psychic-material nature.\u00a0\u00a0We let them go.\u00a0\u00a0That can be something like, \u201cWho am I? If I try to see my hand, it\u2019s back there with my body and I don\u2019t see my hand.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0This is part of letting go.\u00a0\u00a0It is relaxing into what is no longer a necessary condition.\u00a0\u00a0Then, the soul comes into its liberation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We all have this heritage.\u00a0\u00a0Every one of us.\u00a0\u00a0Not one soul is lost.\u00a0\u00a0This is saying all souls come into their fulfillment.\u00a0\u00a0It is not about joining an organization or following a person.\u00a0\u00a0If I were to send you somewhere to follow, I\u2019d say, \u201cIt is within you.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The divine nature is within you.\u00a0\u00a0There is a consciousness there.\u00a0\u00a0One way I call out to it is, \u201cBeloved.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0The Beloved I\u2019m talking about is sacred.\u00a0\u00a0It is a presence in all creation.\u00a0\u00a0It is always present, letting us know, \u201cI am always with you in every breath.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A Blessing of Peace on Earth<\/h4>\n

Let’s take a moment like this when we’re listening,
\nwhen we’re open together
\nto consider that this silence we’ve been calling forward
\nis all around the planet.
\nIt’s beyond the planet, too.
\nIn this moment, the awareness of the silence all around the planet
\nis the movement of spiritual inner awareness.
\nThen consider what image would appear to you in this silence.
\nWhat I’m experiencing is peace on earth.
\nGood will toward all.
\nThe best is yet to come.
\nCelebrate!<\/p>\n
