Do You Feel Divided?

I was taught that God was separate from me. Wrong! Through firsthand experience I know with a certainty that I was taught incorrectly. I read recently where a spiritual friend commented about alchemists. Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov stated that alchemist had a better understanding of spiritual work than many so-called spiritual people who concentrate all their efforts on escaping matter and separating the body and spirit. Alchemy does not cut humans in two: into a spirit, which alone is worthy of our attention, and a body that should be ignored, despised and mistreated. No...spirit and matter, the spirit and the body, have work to do together.

It took me time to accept on every level of my being that the body is not the spirit's tomb. Or, to quote Omraam again, the body is only the spirit's tomb for those who have not understood the meaning of the first verse in Genesis: 'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.' Yes, not just the heavens but the heavens and the earth. Heaven represents 'spirit' and earth represents 'matter.' How many people really think about this statement? If our Creator projected both, they evidently have something to do together. To separate the body from the spirit appears to be the norm for most religions. When you really think about this, it becomes clear that to separate the two is to separate a house from its roof: exposed to bad weather, it collapses, and what does the roof do if it doesn't have four walls to rest on?

I love the soul and mind of Omraam, a dear being who is no longer in the flesh. He always said things clearly and to the point. He understood the obvious, which few do. As long as we indulge in any form of abuse toward the soul, mind and body our house is divided and we will most likely fall a part. Honor your body and mind, watch very carefully what you put into it and what you use it for. The body is a temporary vehicle, but a precious one, so the spirit may express, expand and be itself in matter. When we honor ourselves as a whole package and not a divided energy, we finally learn to live fully in the light of understanding, beauty, wonder, joy and yes, peace.

Spiritual Growth as a Science

What I share is similar to the ancient Siddha teachings of Southern India because it is a science. The teachings which are thousands of years old have proven over and over again to be correct. Before anyone can move forward in consciousness, the individual spirit identity must be acknowledged, accepted, honored and loved. There is an Arabic saying, "If you wish to know God, you must know yourself". Do you ever have moments when you fervently wish you could have tangible help and proof from the worlds of Light? Have you ever desired solid proof that you are indeed a spirit temporarily using an animal body? Perhaps, you have experienced proof in times of great need. You can experience proof daily through commitment, trust, and a determination to be outwardly your true Self.

Have you reached the point where you do not wish to suffer any more? Do you want to live a mediocre or frustrating life or one that reflects the beauty and grace of your inner spirit? Living as a conscious spirit is a very different way to live. One of the tools you can use to live in a new way is to deliberately change your negative karma. It is possible to create a destiny that makes your heart sing. You can also intimately experience divine companionship that will help you daily. In other words, instead of being thrown around by fate it is possible to consciously determine your own destiny and not live solely from old memory patterns.

Negative Karma

On your sacred journey you will face your own negative karma. If you focus too much on it, you can imprison yourself in a mindset that will limit your creativity on every level. Anything is possible. Although some teachers state you must experience all your past negative karma, I disagree. There are other teachers who agree with me. If you really understand the message of Jesus, you know that through the development of unconditional love, right action and a genuine forgiveness of self and others you can free yourself of past mistakes. You will attempt to understand that if you regularly meditate, pray and tune directly into the Divine, negative karma can be neutralized and healed. Once you become aware of soul evolution and act accordingly guarding your thoughts, which are the real culprits, you can diffuse the past and stop creating new negative karma in the present.

Right now, you are likely experiencing in some area of your life the past negative effects from
previous actions that worked against the harmony of the soul. Your soul selects which thoughts and actions it desires to experience in the new life opportunity. As you experience the old in current time as humans know it, you are also creating future experiences. All creations can be altered if you make a decision to change your mind and create a new drama and step out of the scene that is not really fulfilling the evolution of the soul.

It requires determination and a focused energy of unconditional love to change the personality and bodily habits and bring forth the inner spirit. The soul does change and evolve according to your belief system and actions. The purpose is to bring forth the spirit visibly and tangibly into the soul and body. You are the one who brings all of this together when you decide you have had enough of limitation, lack, falsity, sin and suffering. Real balance, true healing begins when we fall in love with the Divine Light within. When that happens, we naturally love and respect other people,animals, nature and the entire creation package. We understand weak minded people because we have experienced separation and fear. If you do not love the real you, the spirit that most people forget, a genuine healing does not take place. You are only fooling yourself. Then
you are obligated to return over and over again into the flesh until you finally get it right. Once you get it right, you have a choice to return to earth and help others lift consciousness or you can take a break from the confinement of an animal body.
