BOOK OF TRUTH #18

P. 303-310

Only the Divine can each the divine, but in truth no reaching is necessary— the Divine already IS.

However, on this earthly plane we(the Divine within us) have chosen an instrument, a form, through which the Divine will manifest itself uniquely. This form is made of our body, mind, personality self (and if we want to get really far out, we could say this form or vehicle is also made up of the many learning’s and karmic energy from past lifetimes s well).

Now it is suggested here that our created form needs to agree with our Divinity to be in alignment with it in order for this whole thing to function as it “should.” The personality self would attempt to make this agreement by brute force, creating an endless cycle of anger and frustration. Another example of the ego/personality taking on an impossible task. Cooperation/agreement/alignment are processes generated by love. The Divine loves the ego/personality enough so that it gently flows into its most useful and functional space. (Like loving n angry fearful three year old until they are calm and safe enough to e OK).

How that happens is the meat of tonight’s lesson.

Essentially through the inner work w  e have been doing and participating in, we realize that the personality and all its stuff is not who we are—we don’t throw it away, we simply realize “the package is not the same as the present.” The menu is not the meal.

Once we realize this, despite the personality/ego’s objections, we can consciously contribute to this process of alignment.

There is a beautiful example in Christian scripture when Jesus was in a boat with the apostles and a storm arose. As the story goes, Jesus was asleep in the boat

 and of the apostles became very afraid and woke him up and said, “Lord save us we perish!” Jesus calmly woke up, stood up in the boat, stretched out his hands and said to the wind and the raging waters, “Peace be still,” and immediately there was calm. The apostles were awestruck and said to one another, “Who is this man that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

The reason I bring up the story is it is a perfect example of alignment. Because Jesus was in the Christ Consciousness, everything else around him could be affected by that Peace. It was not the creation of something outside but it was a recognition of what already is inside.

Those are some of my own reflections on tonight's work. So let us take some time to work with it step-by-step.

This is a great one-liner:

“the Kingdom itself, (is) the awareness of the Divine in all things,” p. 303

You(your Divine self) have chosen the form (body, mind, emotions, personality, karma, etc.) that is to be your unique expression of the Divine. When you realize this is your choosing and you take responsibility for it, rather than letting it run the show, you are coming into alignment with the truth of who you are.

“Now the aspect of you that already comprehends that everything you see before you is consciousness made into form can align to the potential that the Divine as what you are may also be the same. But how do you know it? How do you claim it as true? How do you know your inheritance until you are experiencing it? This is the teaching of the night.”

We have created sort of an upside down world we are we have bought into an overwhelming sense of limitation and then presumed that those limitations are real.

“Now imagine, if you wish, for the sake of this teaching, that you stand in a room as a pillar of vibration, that what you are in fact is a level of frequency being expressed or manifested in what you know as a body. Imagine, then, that the vibration that you hold is not in agreement to physical law because the aspect of it that knows she is of God actually bypasses law that exists in lower vibration. This is the first step to this claim of agreement.”

We say “No” to limitation and “Yes” to the infinite possibilities that are an aspect of our Freedom.

“As long as you believe yourself to be bound by the laws of man and the exchanges of men that have decided what these laws should be, you will be tethered to the laws at the cost of the vibration that you truly are knowing its full expression.”

Manifestation is the movement within from idea (in the mind God) to experience—and that means experience on and within this material plane. The way I heard it put years ago is, “It is not our task to get rid of the world, but to make all things sacred.” Now the paradox here is that everything is already sacred, but for us to realize that we must be in a high enough vibration to “see” it that way.

“The jurisdiction you have now as the Divine Self is to recognize divinity and, in truth, you alchemize what you see. And by this we mean, in the claim of truth you are, you express as, you acclimatize the vibratory field of what you witness in the same vibration. Light illumines darkness, truth eradicates lies. And they work together to claim anew.”

This last piece summarizes what has gone before:“You have agreed sequentially, first and foremost, to deny fear as the active article in your life. You’ve chosen anew and then you have agreed not to bear witness to history in the agreement that it’s true, but what was. And then you have decided to reclaim the self in agreement to truth in a way that you may uncover, or unmask, or release the small structures that you’ve endowed with great power. And finally, we say, you are agreeing to serve. And in this alchemy, “I am agreeing to serve,” the thunderbolt comes and claims you each in an illumination in your field that will progress and reclaim you in the Kingdom. We have said it.”

For me, sometimes, this idea of service is confusing. I fall into my little self’s understanding—that I must be doing something—I need to put on my healer’s hat, or some such.

The essence of service is the realization that we are all One, that by raising my vibration—thoughts of love, gratitude, peacefulness, prayer, etc. I raise the vibration of all beings—and that “work” can be done anytime any place.

“On this night I choose to be enabled in all ways to be in full service as my True Self, and in truth I claim this, and in agreement to truth I witness it. And as I say, ‘Yes,’ to this, all aspects of my being will be claimed in the higher vibration and all I have known and will know, all I have seen and will see, all I may believe and may know and may bear witness to from this moment forward is in truth, in alignment to truth, in agreement to truth. I am here. I am here. I am here.”

In love and gratitudeB
