from Jesus:
Contrary to what many people,
including those who follow native spirituality, seem to think, one does
not receive spiritual power from a tattoo. One might receive energy
from a tattoo, but it is not spiritual energy.
Many of the things people do to adorn the physical body are actually
showing a disrespect for the body temple. This includes tattoos, body
piercing and even extreme use of make-up. Such practices originally
sprang from a hatred of the Mother because it is the mother energy that
is used to create the body temple.
Therefore, I highly recommend that people abstain from such practices.
I realize that most young people in today's world will ignore my recommendation.
Yet I can assure you that defiling the body temple in any way, including
the use of drugs, will not advance your spiritual growth. It will only
slow down that growth, and for many people it can contribute to stopping
that growth altogether.
There is a psychological reason for everything you do. You will be attracted
to a tattoo that outpictures what is going on in your subconscious mind.
Images have a very powerful impact on the mind, and throughout history
images have been used to raise people’s consciousness or misused
to control people’s consciousness.
In today’s world, images are misused more than at any time in
the past. This is especially true for images of sex, death and any disharmonious
image with jagged lines, asymmetrical forms and dark or clashing colors.
As I explain elsewhere,
the world is created by images held in the universal Christ mind. On
this planet, human beings have influenced God’s original creation,
and this has been done in large part by the imperfect images people
hold in their minds. Therefore, the forces that seek to disrupt God’s
plan and enslave humankind have made skillful use of imperfect images
to control people and cause them to co-create an imperfect world.
If you want to make maximum spiritual progress, you would do well to
be very careful what type of images you allow entry into your mind.
Your mind is your inner temple, so don’t bring anything into it
that does not correspond to the level of spiritual consciousness you
want to attain. Your body is your outer temple, so don’t do anything
to it that would not support your spiritual growth.
