BALANCING: WORK AND REST. II

Continuing with the theme of balancing work and rest, suffice it to quote from the Akashic to open up.

It is well that each body, everybody, take exercise to counteract the daily routine activity so as to produce rest.   416 - 1

Exercise of the body brings strength and resistance. Exercise of mental activity brings resistances, growth and expansion.   1206 - 13

 To over exercise any portion (of the body) not in direct need of same, to the detriment of another, is to hinder rather than to assist. Exercise is wonderful, and necessary--and little or few take as much as is needed, in a systematic manner. Use common sense. Use discretion.   283 - 1

ANGELS, ARCHANGELS & MASTERS OF THE SPIRIT REALM

In continuation of the theme on the initial manifestation of souls on the earth plane, lets look at what The One fashioned to deal with the uprising of His creation...

 

Sacred texts were recorded by adepts for two types of audience. One is the profane general public and the other is students on the path initiates. Students on the part are individuals who, through free will, choose to study mans' relationship with The One...Read moreↆ 

 

WHAT IS GOD? WHO IS GOD? WHERE IS GOD? (1)

Before any discussion, let us peep into the Akashic's information on the issues. Let it be known that any quote with numbers attached, say 100 - 1 or 223 - 14, are sourced through Edgar Cayce's voyages into The Book of Remembrance Readings.

 WHAT IS GOD? WHO IS GOD? WHERE IS GOD? (2)
You have had ample opportunity to reminisce on the Akashic definitions and explanations of the concept of God. We will extrapolate from them in the quest to tie the reality--The One /Creative Forces /Law /Love /Universal Forces etc.--into Christ-Based spiritual living.

The One is whatever an individual wants/perceives Him to be. The same is true of observers of light at the subatomic level. Whether observed as particles or waves, the subject remains the same--light! Recall the particle theory and wave theory of light...Read moreↆ

 

 WHAT IS GOD? WHO IS GOD? WHERE IS GOD? (3)
Theorists  and scientists can come up with a thousand and one reasons why, due to no prompting, the Big Bang--emergence of the universe as a singularity--just came about. Or push for the recognition of Einstein's static-spacetime paradigm.

Until they advert their minds to the validity of information retrieved from the Akashic by Edgar Cayce on the subject, their efforts will be circular movements.

Science relied on the intuitive theory of the atom before an apparatus to observe it was invented. Is it asking for too much to counsel reliance on a yet to be demonstrated Creator of the universe?...Read moreↆ

WHAT IS GOD? WHO IS GOD? WHERE IS GOD? (4)

Acceptance of paradoxes is integral to comprehension and application of spiritual principles. To grasp the big picture about The One, start at the microscopic level. What are we talking about here?

  4. Q-Is it correct when praying to think of God as an impersonal force or energy, everywhere present; or as an intelligent listening mind, which is aware of every individual on earth and who intimately knows everyone's needs and how to meet them?

A. Both. For He is also energies in the finite moving in material manifestation.

The One God is an impersonal force/energy present at all places simultaneously. You may use omnipresent. He is an intelligent listening mind, who is aware of each soul's needs and who has made a way to overcome and master problems on the material plane--learning opportunities. 

May be we can find parallels of His ubiquitousness in nature. What makes all the seasons to repeat  with unfailing predictable frequency? What is responsible for all the planets remaining in orbit for eons of time? 

What triggered the so-called chance commencement, according to some, of the universe? Is it conceivable that there is no order law that governs spiritual growth? And that law is resident in applying Christ's examples. It is that simple!

Furthermore, The One cannot be completely comprehended in materiality. After many appearances in body and flesh  earthly incarnations, the conscious mind might have a blurry idea of the Father. Less dependence on the five senses enhances the quality of the  picture.

But the portion of the mind that is divine knows the reality. The One is the motivative spirit in all that is constructive. The main barrier to come to terms with this actuality is ascription of human values and emotions because we anthropomorphize God. 

Suspension of a three-dimensional mindset is one of the ways to overcome the limitations imposed by body and flesh in spiritual matters.  Start today by thinking about an intuitive way to perceive reality. Have you ever had a hunch, which came to pass?  That was a moment when your inner self burst to the surface.

Seek answers to mundane issues from within. You will definitely experience progress. Little by little, the petals of your inner self would unfold! Be patient. The hunches will become regular insights into issues. This is how we locate and maintain the path of understanding. 

In any situation, just say Christ what would you have me do? Follow up with with a one-minute period of silence. Forget about the issue and go about your normal business. If  you feel an answer, ask this time: Christ do I proceed? Then act based on what you perceive. Do not be afraid. Remember: setbacks should be seen as stepping stones to spiritual growth.   

In addition, try to live according to the fruits of the spirit of Christ. 

The fruits of the spirit of Christ are love, joy, obedience, long-suffering, brotherly love, and kindness. Against such there is no law. The spirit of hate, the anti-Christ is contention, strife, fault-finding, lovers of praise. (281-16)

What was your reaction to:

In each atom, in each corpuscle, is life. Life is what you worship as God. (2968-1)?

How would you relate this to the wave theory and particle theory of light? To me it shows, inter alia, that God/Creative Force/The One is pervasive; is ever present in each of us and there must be a law that governs how we can better understand and cooperate with Him. 

God is not doom and gloom. Humans' understanding(s) of the nature of the Creator change from time to time. Dogmas might be concocted to present a frightening image to keep the masses in line.  However, the reality remains unaltered.The book of Life says:

Not as Moses painted a God of wrath; not as David painted a God that would fight thine enemies; but as the Christ--(who presented Him as) the Father of love, of mercy, of justice. (262-100)  

The One is impartial. He set the Law from the beginning of time. The soul known to us as Jesus, worked over many incarnations to actualize the plan. At the end--with the crucifixion and resurrection--He finalized the path back to The One. The Creative Forces do not need to exhibit human-like emotions. Mercy is available. Love awaits. He remains unchanged.

This concludes the current series on God. 

May Christ Consciousness continue to guide your journey towards the Father.
