PRINCIPLES OF CHRIST-BASED SPIRITUAL LIVING. II

At times, one is so used to something that a reminder is needed to reiterate the obvious. Christ-Based spiritual living, as an activity on the physical realm, needs this too. 

The talk about Christ, ad infinitum on this blog, deals mainly with the Christ Consciousness. You see, Jesus was the Man and Christ is the Consciousness. Jesus, the Man, was crucified, He died and was buried. Christ has been Christ in all ages!

After three days, The Christ Consciousness overcame death and took possession of its vessel--Jesus. This is why the tomb was empty but some of the clothing materials were left in place. This demonstration of Divine Will and Power in action, still, had to obey laws of the material plane. God is not tyrannical!

In other words, the transformation of the interred body, like all things in nature, was subject to the laws governing the earth plane. The unimaginable but true occurrence can only be summed up, not explained with a three-dimensional vocabulary. 

The body, which was devoid of life for three days had its vibrations raised up to the point of not only having life restored, but also becoming one with the ether yet capable of materializing whenever He wills--it is from thence a Force. 

Hence, according to Scripture and confirmed by the Akashic, The Master warned Mary Magdalene not touch Him immediately after the resurrection. 
17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. (John 20)

Jesus the man was a regular guy who lived an exemplary life in His final earthly incarnation. His earthly examples are what we strive to emulate without equivocation. He is a very jovial Force. Existence on the spiritual plane is measured in terms of rates of vibrations. Though, as mentioned above, the  forces can materialize, if and when necessary.

He never shied away from mixing with the masses. He was more at home with them than the worldly-wise. He socialized more than any other divine messenger. Well, He was neither a messenger nor a prophet. He is the only Master!

Some might want to dismiss His actions along this line: He could do anything because He was The Word made perfect in flesh. In as much as this is true, remember that any soul encased in flesh, has to obey the laws of the physical dimension.

Jesus did not receive any waiver from The Father. Recall: God is not a respecter of persons but intentions and desires. Most important, the laws must be fulfilled. God leads by perfect examples.

Jesus appeared in flesh thirty times to show all of us that a committed soul can get back to The Source. Unfortunately, His many incarnations are not known to many. The last one is the only one known and dwelt upon by many the profane. 

It is only when we come to the realization that He needed thirty earthly appearances to set the path that His sayings begin to have context.  Without this, His teachings could be erroneously interpreted as asking humans for the impossible!

Put differently, there is the potential to unwittingly condemn self or become impatient when His sayings are interpreted in isolation and without help from above. For example: 
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. (John 14)     
One who is not conversant with the Book of Remembrance could be discouraged if trying to be as Godly as possible leads nowhere near the assertion by Him above. However, with the benefit of the Akashic we know that it cannot be done in one lifetime.

The spiritual principle for today is: Put your trust completely in Him  The Christ Consciousness. You know what? When you retire at the end of the day, call upon Him to please guide your inner self on how to start a genuine relationship with Him. Prayer is communication. There is no special formula. 

When you rise in the morning, call upon Him to guide your thoughts, words and deeds for the day. Since only God can determine our actions after we make choices, let your request be as sincere as can be. Stick to this routine from now on and the promise below, registered on the skein of time, will never fail.

There should be the reminding that - though He bowed under the burden of the Cross, though His blood was shed, though He entered into the tomb - through that power, that ability, that love as manifested in Himself among His fellow men He broke the bonds of death; proclaiming in that act that there is no death when the individual, the soul, has and does put its trust in Him. (5749-13)
May the Christ Consciousness continue to guide your journey towards the Father.
