The Last Test


I have just recently been put in mind of the spiritual community where I lived for many years, and specifically of its founding principles, which I summarized in an email to a current member there, and copied into my last blog.  I failed to mention one ‘principle’ therein, which Eileen emphasized, very strongly, over and over again, and especially during the end of her time amongst us.  And that was, to

‘Claim your Christhood - NOW.’

What do I have to say specifically to that subject, and especially, er, Now?  

The following.

If all that life were about was just living in this material realm, and under the control of an interest-bearing money system, and its partner, fractional-reserve banking - which creates money out of thin air(1) - the purpose of life could easily be looked on as the making of money.  But you see (with awakened eyes), in reality there is more to it all than that.  My take on it:

The purpose of life is to achieve self-realization.  Of our true nature, and Selves.  As facets, fractals, aspects, points of view, expressions, living embodiments of      

The All That Is.

We have much to do in that regard.

Let’s be about it.

And some will have more difficulty in accepting this truth about themselves than others. Especially Christians.  To them I say:

You have been conditioned to believe that you are, in your essence, a sinner.  Needing redemption, by someone outside of yourself: a Redeemer. 

You are not, in your essence.  And you do not.(2)

Your ’salvation’ is up to 

You.

Yes, I know, what eschatological Christianity has to say about all this.  And what do I think of it?  I think that it is

The Last Test   
For you, before
You earn your
    Christhood
As an awake and aware
        Child
       of God

And do away with this kingdom
   of Satan
Holding many in thrall to
A false god, and promise
Of reward, here
   on Earth.
                Hey, you
Can have that, too.
          In this
    Golden Age 
         that is 
       upon us
    as we speak

Just as soon as
    we release
   the old ways
 of doing things,
     and share
with one another
  out of a higher
       motive
    than that of 
making a profit:
  rather, out of
     gratitude
 to our Creator
         for
         life
 with meaning

beyond just in
  and for itself
        only.

(1) And makes some 'insiders' very wealthy, indeed.  In human terms.

(2) What about all those incarnate souls who never heard of Jesus??  And if your answer is that they will have that choice in ‘the nest’ realm, my response is that this is the realm of Choice.
   And anyway, with reincarnation a part of the picture, it doesn’t really make sense.  They could renounce Jesus as a different player in the next scene of
   The Play.
