Existence within space and time is simply God’s version of Distance Education, or Virtual Learning. It doesn’t matter how long this education takes, because time is part of the illusion. The outcome is inescapable. Sufficient experience will eventually ensure that consciousness will discriminate between truth and illusion. And since we are merely viewing a sequence of states as one would view frames of a movie reel, the universe doesn’t even get used up in the process.
Whether one approves of God’s education system or not, the only path to freedom seems to go through the realm beyond time and space. And the most straightforward means of achieving this appears to be the development of separation of consciousness from body and mind, under the guidance of one who has mastered the technique.
It is said that when one attains mastership of consciousness, one gains the freedom to choose how to interact within the universe. Physical birth is no longer necessary. Once mastership has been obtained, it is only necessary to manifest a body within any particular realm. The entire universe is available to you, as it is, and always has been for all consciousness.
All of the foregoing exists as a means to understand the true nature of the universe, which allows us to function with complete freedom within it. There couldn’t be a chapter in the Bible about The Big Bang, because the concept didn’t exist when it was written. But now that we have developed a sufficient understanding of quantum mechanics, we can see that an empirical understanding of the universe can only be attained by going beyond time and space.
If you find this to be sufficient motivation for your personal pursuit of Enlightenment, the universe awaits you. But remember, the universe is very large. It doesn’t matter whether one’s initial motivation comes from an NDE, a meditative vision, or perhaps an astral travel experience, one needs sufficient motivation to pursue the ultimate. The spiritual journey is all about personal, empirical experience, but mystical teachings warn us that if our experiences are only within the realms of time and space, the End-of-Life will necessarily result in the continuation of the cycle of reincarnations. Since the realms of time and space are infinite, experience while within them can never be complete. If we choose to have complete spiritual freedom, we must focus our attention beyond the lower realms.
The only way to reliably complete this journey in a single lifetime is to have a guide. And that guide must be completely familiar with the entire path necessary to accomplish your purpose. Such a guide will often be referenced in the materials which follow, so it must be defined as clearly as possible. The guide will be referred to as Spirit.
- God is the Source of All, and Spirit is its Voice.
- There are many Spiritual Guides who serve as channels for Spirit.
- These Guides Dwell in God Consciousness Continuously and are Always Available.
If you are tired of creeping along, lifetime after lifetime, locked within time and space, the focus must shift to the attainment of Universal Consciousness within that lifetime. It can be done, with the attainment of complete freedom as a result.
