from Jesus:
There is indeed
a Brotherhood of Light, and there is also a brotherhood of darkness.
The Brotherhood of Light has traditionally been referred to by many
names, such as the Saints Robed in White, the Great White Brotherhood,
the White Lodge, the Ascended Masters, the Ascended Host, the Heavenly
Host and others. In the 1800s we received a special dispensation to
work more directly with humankind and to make our presence known to
all who are willing to listen.
We have given spiritual teachings through many organizations and individuals.
The dark brotherhood has attempted to counter our efforts by giving
forth teachings that are aimed at deceiving people. Therefore, not all
teachings that claim to represent the Ascended Host is truly from us.
I would like to make one thing clear about dark forces. Many members
of the dark brotherhood, also called the false hierarchy, sincerely
believe that they are in opposition to God. Some of them even believe
that they form a sort of polar opposite to God, and that they are a
necessary element for the wholeness of creation. You can even find some
religions on Earth teaching that evil is a necessary polarity to good,
or even to God. This is an illusion.
I have given detailed teachings on this elsewhere,
but let me mention the key issue. In Taoism, you find the symbol of
the Tai-Chi. This symbol depicts two complementary forces and their
harmonious interaction gives rise to the entire universe. This is a
correct teaching and a wonderful illustration of divine principles.
Take note that the key issue here is that the two forces depicted in
the Tai-Chi are not mutually exclusive. Although they have different
qualities, these qualities are not opposites. Therefore, when the two
forces, or polarities, are united, their interaction creates a new aspect
of reality. This new creation is in accord with the laws of God, and
therefore it is sustainable. It will not self-destruct.
In contrast,
evil simply cannot form a creative polarity with good. Evil cannot create
something new and sustainable. If you put evil and good together, they
annihilate each other. Therefore, evil can never create; it can only
destroy. Consequently, evil is not a necessary part of the universe.
Evil was not created by God. It was created because certain beings used
their free will to go against God ‘s law and God’s intent.
How can you tell the difference between the Brotherhood of Light and
the brotherhood of darkness? One major difference is that the Brotherhood
of Light always seeks to unite, whereas the brotherhood of darkness
seeks to divide.
The most basic spiritual truth is the simple fact that everything in
the entire universe is created from God’s substance, God’s
energy. No matter what the outer appearances may be, everything is created
from God’s being. Therefore, no matter what the outer appearances
might be there is a fundamental unity that transcends all differences.
The essential key to spiritual growth is that a human being must overcome
the illusion that there is anything that is separated from God, including
him- or herself. The only real problem for human beings is a sense of
being separated from God. The key to spiritual growth, the key to enlightenment,
is to overcome this illusion of Maya.
The dark brotherhood will do anything they can possibly think of to
prevent human beings from overcoming that illusion. The dark forces
made the choice to separate themselves out from God. Some of them actually
believe that they have somehow created a world that is outside of God
or in opposition to God.
In reality, there is nothing but God. God is all there is, and God’s
substance is everywhere. If God is omnipresent, how could there ever
be a place where God is not found? In reality, God truly is everywhere,
but because certain beings have been given free will they have the ability
to create the illusion that they are separated from God. However, that
illusion only exists inside their own minds and it can only continue
to exist as long as they give it power by choosing to uphold the lie.
The central message of this website is to encourage everyone to walk
the path of personal Christhood. As you walk that path, you gradually
become able to see beyond the illusion that you, and anything in this
world, are separated from God. You gain the ability to see the unity
behind diversity. You also begin to get an intuitive sense, an inner
discernment, that allows you to see through the illusions and lies perpetrated
by the brotherhood of darkness.
Make no mistake, these forces have been around for a long time and they
have developed a certain cleverness. They are very skilled at creating
ideas or belief systems that contain many statements of truth, yet contain
a few statements that perpetrate the illusion of separation. In some
cases, the only way to tell the difference between light and darkness
is by vibration. As you walk the path of personal Christhood, you will
attain the ability to read vibrations and to tell the difference between
light and darkness.
If you have not yet attained this intuitive ability, this website contains
tools that will help you
speed up this process. However, it will also help you to always keep
in mind that the brotherhood of darkness seek to divide whereas the
Brotherhood of Light always seeks to unify
Note from Kim: If you want more detailed and extensive teachings on
this, I would recommend the book Memories of God and Creation
by Shakuntala Modi. It gives a good overview of the process of creation,
including the origin of evil. Additional teachings are found in the
books Forbidden Mysteries of Enoch and Strategies of Light
and Darkness, both published by Summit University press.
