from Jesus:
I have already commented
on the use of the title Jesus
the Christ. I have also commented on the name Jeshua.
Concerning Krishna, I am not the reincarnation of Krishna. Krishna is
an ascended master, and although we are all one, we also have separate
identities.
I can understand that so many people see a connection between Krishna
and myself and think we might be incarnations of the same soul. However,
the reality is that we both served as spiritual teachers who taught
the way to Christ consciousness. The only way to teach Christhood is
to embody the Christ consciousness and teach by example. So we both
embodied the universal Christ mind, whereby that Christ mind became
individualized in each of us.
I understand that some people will interpret this to mean that we were
both incarnations of the universal Christ. This is not necessarily wrong,
but the problem is that many people interpret this to mean that we were
the same soul and that we came into embodiment in the fullness of Christhood.
This is not correct. We both came to Earth as individual souls who went
through multiple incarnations before we attained the Christ consciousness
that empowered us to ascend. It would therefore be better to say that
we followed the spiritual path until we embodied the Christ consciousness
instead of saying that we were incarnations of the Christ consciousness.
Let me commend you for recognizing that you have much to learn. This
is a very good place to be in because it opens the heart and mind to
spiritual growth. I can assure you that even ascended masters have much
to learn about the deeper realities of God. Therefore, humility is always
important on the spiritual path.
Unfortunately, I see many spiritual seekers who follow the path for
a while and then gradually become enveloped in the subtle temptations
of pride. They begin to think that because they have walked so far on
the path, they have somehow arrived at an ultimate destination and have
nothing more to learn from anyone. As one of my colleagues likes to
say, “If the teacher be an ant, heed him.” To make maximum
spiritual progress, it is essential to remain humble and open to the
eternal teacher who often appears in a humble disguise to test your
willingness to learn.
