Ascended Master Mother Mary, February 18, 2007 through Kim Michaels.

My Beloved hearts, I Mary come to greet you in this new opportunity for establishing world peace in the spirit of Christ and the spirit of Buddha. I encourage you to use the new invocation we release now, namely the Invocation of the Eternal NOW. For this invocation is most powerful, and it is indeed a culmination of all of the invocations, not the least of which is the last two invocations for Rising above the Past and the Golden Future.

The secret principle behind all spiritual teachings

When it comes right down to it, the past and the future are nothing but illusions, mirages created by the sense of separation from the allness of life that I love to call the River of Life. There are those who believe that heaven is a place of eternal rest, where angels sit around on pink clouds, playing harps. There are those who believe heaven is the Buddhic Nirvana, which they – in contrast to the Buddha’s true teachings – have come to see as a place where nothing changes, where there is no growth, no individuality, no differentiation.

Yet what must die so that you – the Conscious You – can be resurrected into eternal life, is not your individuality, your sense of self. Nay, what must die is the separate sense of self, the self that is based on separation from the River of Life. This is the self that is born out of your refusal to take up the responsibility to become the Christ, to become one with all life through oneness with the guru.

There is no more important relationship for people on earth than their relationship to a spiritual teacher, or as such a teacher is often called in the East, a guru. Oh yes, the word “guru” has indeed received a bad name in the West, in large part due to the many false and fake gurus who have come out of the East and have attempted to take advantage of the spiritual awakening that has been going on in the West now for several decades.

Yet I must tell you that there is a reality in the fact that you need someone who is not trapped in the duality consciousness in order to escape your own dualistic illusions. For as Jesus has so lovingly explained in his ego discourses, and as he recently explained in another essential discourse, the main characteristic of the ego is that it blinds you to reality. This is what the Buddha called the veil of Maya, the veil of illusion, that makes you vulnerable to the forces of duality, which the Buddha called the demons of Mara.

The parallels between the teachings of Christ and Buddha

Yes, there are indeed many parallels between the teachings of the Buddha and the teachings of Christ. And that is why you will see that this new Invocation of the Eternal NOW, for the first time ever, blends the teachings of the Christ and the teachings of the Buddha. This is an extremely powerful ritual, not only for you personally, but also for the world at large.

For I must tell you that the main strategy used by the forces of duality is indeed the strategy of divide and conquer. And how could it be otherwise? For how could the forces of duality do anything but divide others, as they are divided in themselves through their entrapment in the consciousness of duality, the consciousness of anti-christ and anti-buddha. As you should realize by now, the true teachings of Christ are the teachings of inner oneness, oneness with your own higher being through oneness with a teacher, or master or guru outside yourself.

For did not Jesus himself outpicture that Path of Oneness with his disciples? Did he not attempt to raise his disciples from the state of consciousness in which they were trapped when he found them, and then take them into oneness with himself? And was is not so that few of the disciples were able to enter into that oneness? Specifically, Peter was the one who outpictured the difficulty that many among humankind have in understanding the true message of Christ. Namely, that you not simply follow Christ and elevate Christ to an idol that will do the work for you, but that you come into oneness with Christ, the oneness that can be attained only by following the inner path, the straight and narrow way, the Middle Way.

Both the Christ and the Buddha, in their true inner teachings, taught the inner path, the Path of Oneness. How can you be a true follower of Christ unless you come into oneness with Christ, unless you let that mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, so that you can do the works that Jesus did, and greater works. And how can you be a true follower of the Buddha unless you come into oneness with the Buddha?

For is it not so, that the essence of the teachings of the Buddha is that everything is the Buddha nature. When you see that everything is the Buddha nature, how can you fail to come into oneness with the Buddha that has embodied the Buddha nature? And likewise, did not Jesus talk about the Word and does not the Gospel of John say that in the beginning was the Word and without him was not made any thing made that was made. So when you see the essence of the teachings of Christ, you see that everything is made out of the Word, out of the universal Christ Mind. And thus, when you see this, how can you fail to see the universal Christ in yourself and thereby come into oneness with the universal Christ Mind and all who have previously come into oneness with that Mind, namely Jesus, Gautama, myself and all the true saints and sages of the ages, those who are found in every religion.

For did not Jesus clearly spell out for Christians that unless their righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, they should in no wise enter the kingdom. And was not the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees an outer righteousness, where they took pride in following the outer letter of the law, the outer scripture, in minute detail, thereby thinking they could guarantee their way into heaven. And did not Jesus say that the kingdom of heaven comes not with observation, for the kingdom of God is within you. So it is not clear, is it not obvious for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see, that Jesus called all to come into oneness with him, which is why he said, “I am the way the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father but by me,” meaning the universal Christ consciousness with which I am one in the eternal now.

Ascended Master Gautama Buddha, July 5, 2005 through Kim Michaels.

You have been told about the God Flames and I will give you a teaching that takes this a bit further. Many of you might have wondered how you can have a spiritual teaching that unites the Buddha and the Christ. What is the connection between Buddha and Christ? Well, the Buddha and the Christ are symbols for two spiritual offices that are meant to guide the evolutions of earth to their salvation, to their enlightenment.

And the Buddha and the Christ do it in two different ways. The Buddha is the one who sits on top of the Sea of Samsara and holds the balance and the vision, holds that perfect balance for the Mother Light. The Christ is the one who descends into that Sea of Samsara, to those who are lost in ignorance and cannot ask the questions that will make them free. And he offers them a cup of cold water in Christ’s name.

And this does not mean that he offers them the ultimate spiritual teaching, for truly many people are not ready for it. And thus, when Jesus says you have a right to go out and disturb those who are caught, he does not mean that you have to give them the highest spiritual teaching you can see. You need to tune in to the soul and say, “What does that soul need to take the very next step? That is the cup of cold water I will offer them.” That is the function of the Christ.

So when you transfer that to the concept that there are two aspects of your God Flame, you can say, that the Alpha flame is also the Buddha flame. This is the flame that you hold as a balance for the earth. The Omega flame is the Christ flame. This is the flame you bring to those who are lost in ignorance, so that they can be awakened. You might have heard that Christ is the Prince of Peace. Well, the Buddha is the King of Peace. The Buddha sits on the throne, holding the overall vision for the kingdom, and then he directs the prince to go out and cut free those who are stuck in the mud.

Thus, the Christ flame is the Word incarnate. And did not Jesus say – even though he was called the Prince of Peace – did he not say, “Think not that I come to bring peace to the world. I come to bring a sword” (Matthew 10:34). And what is that sword of the Christ? It is the Word, the Word incarnate that cleaves asunder the real from the unreal, so that people can see their egos and the unreality of the ego, and thereby have the free choice to separate themselves from it. That is the sword of Christ. And that is why, truly, Christ did not come to bring peace into this world. He came to disturb those who are trapped in ignorance, trapped in pride, trapped in hypocrisy, and challenge them to come up higher.

He came to set brother against brother in the sense that he would rather see people have conflict – that could bring out their egos, that could bring out the worst in them – so that they might see that aspect of the ego in themselves. He would rather see that kind of conflict – that would lead to growth – than he would see everybody remain indifferent, remain asleep, as if they were numb, walking through life as if they were sleepwalking.

So thus, the Christ does come to disturb, to stir up the pot, and to get people to move out of their indifference. And yet, the Christ is the Prince of Peace because only when you are willing to take the battle with the ego can you reach the true peace of freedom from that ego. How can there be peace if people are trapped in the ego? Tthe Christ comes to bring them the sword that will allow themselves to divide the Conscious You from your ego. And this is the difference in your God flames. You hold a balance for the earth. But you are here to bring a sword and to be that Prince of Peace—that you are willing to disturb those who think they have peace, but it is the false peace.

And thus I am come to lend my momentum of peace, my momentum of silence, to those who will guard the Mother Light. Because, truly, if you have never made contact with the peace of the Buddha, how can you guard the Mother Light? You will just be caught in another dualistic fight between those who are absorbed in their egos.

The sectarian, exclusivist claims of mainstream Christianity are out of touch with the reality of who Jesus is. Jesus is part of a universal brotherhood of spiritual beings who are working to raise the consciousness of human beings. Therese are the forces of light seeking to set us free from being dominated by the forces of anti-christ. They are often called the ascended masters.

Jesus is today an ascended master and so is Gautama Buddha. There are many parallels between the teachings and mission of Christ and Buddha, and these are explained in this section.

This section contains articles on the following topics:

 

Uniting Buddha and Christ

• The Buddha and the Christ are symbols for two spiritual offices that are meant to guide the evolutions of earth.
• The Buddha is the one who sits on top of the Sea of Samsara and holds the balance. The Christ is the one who descends into that Sea of Samsara, to those who are lost in ignorance.
• The Alpha flame is also the Buddha flame. The Omega flame is the Christ flame.
• The Christ does come to disturb, to stir up the pot, and to get people to move out of their indifference.

Read more about this.

 

The parallels between the teachings of Christ and Buddha

• Heaven is not a place of eternal rest.
• There is no more important relationship for people on earth than their relationship to a spiritual teacher.
• Many parallels between the teachings of Christ and Buddha.
• The main strategy used by the forces of duality is the strategy of divide and conquer.
• Both the Christ and the Buddha taught the inner path, the Path of Oneness.

Read more about this.

 

Differences between mission of Christ and Buddha

• In heaven there is only oneness so how could there ever be any separation between Christ and Buddha?
• The role of the Living Christ is to go out and challenge people’s illusions, in order to awaken them to reality.
• Once people have been awakened and have followed the path of Christhood for a time, they will then be open to the path of the Buddha, which is the path of non-attachment.

Read more about this.

 

A deeper understanding of the Buddha’s office

• The Buddha is the male polarity to the female polarity of the matter universe.
• Gautama is holding the spiritual balance for us.
• We can see the vision of Buddha by attuning our consciousness to Gautama’s.
• To do this, we must find the point of stillness within us.

Read more about this.

 

Christ is Omega, Buddha is Alpha

• You cannot fully understand the Buddha until you have attained some degree of Oneness with Christ.
• Gautama holds the Alpha balance for the planet by seeing everything as the Buddha Nature. Jesus holds the Omega polarity by being the planetary Christ, who is willing to go out and do battle with the imperfect manifestations.

Read more about this.

 

Christhood and Buddhahood

• In the Christ Consciousness you never accuse anyone, for you have transcended the accusatory consciousness.
• Christhood is where you go out into the world and challenge the illusions of anti-christ.
• As the Christ you go through a phase, as Jesus demonstrated, where you deal with anyone regardless of their state of consciousness.
• The Buddha has a right to define limitations for who can enter his or her Sangha.

Read more about this.

 

Christ discernment and the path to Buddhahood

• Too many spiritual people do not have Christ discernment.
• This is a matter of reading vibration and seeing if it resonates with oneness.
• Many people are too open to unbalanced ideas and illusions.

Read more about this.

 

The Buddha brought a new idea

• When a society has become closed to new ideas, the ascended masters need to bring forth new ideas through someone in embodiment.
• By walking the path towards Christhood and on to Buddhahood, we can become the open doors for transformative ideas.

Saint Germain, March 22, 2010

And how is the consciousness going to shift? Well, only by those who see themselves as the forerunners of Aquarius being willing to question the way they look at everything, to question what limits their imagination. Be willing to question what limits your imagination. This is, right now, possibly the greatest service you could render to the ascended masters and to humankind. Question what limits your imagination, including questioning what already limits your perception. For if you will not question your current perception, how could you ever free your imagination to soar beyond what you perceive as the limits for life? How then, will you question your perception? Let me suggest two areas, where you might begin: Church and state, religion and politics. These two are like two sides of the coin of life. They truly represent the Alpha and the Omega, the masculine and the feminine.

Politics may be a too limited word, for truly what it involves is everything that is the feminine aspect of life, the practical, outer expression of life in your personal life, in society, in politics, in technology, in education, in the family—in every practical aspect of life; this is the Omega aspect, the Divine Mother. The Alpha aspect, the Divine Father aspect, is not simply religion – as it has traditionally been conceived – but every aspect of how you imagine your potential. As we have recently said, the masculine is “what can be done,” the feminine is “how it can be done.” And this is the highest potential of Church and state, where Church, religion, is meant to represent the masculine, that gives you a vision of what to do. And then, state, or the feminine, gives you the practical vision of how it can be done, how you desire to express it.

What, then, is the primary preconceived idea, that you might question? Well, it is another aspect of the fallen consciousness, namely that there is only one right way to do it. This is, again, tied in to what I have explained about the judgmental consciousness, that wants to set up a standard for what is right and wrong, and evaluate everything based on that standard. Take that consciousness, make an effort to see it as an expression of the fallen consciousness, and then realize, that I am not here talking about going into the opposite extreme of saying that anything goes. For, when you reach for the Alpha of the vision of the Spirit, you know what can be done, what should be done and what is not right because it will not provide growth for yourself or for other aspects of life. But even when you see what can be done, and what is right from a higher perspective, there are still many ways that it can be done.

Many times we see our spiritual students have a correct vision of what should be done, but they cannot agree on how it should be done. And then, what do they do? Well, they fall prey to the belief, that there can only be one right way to do it, and that even we of the ascended masters have only one right way to run an organization, for example. And thus, what happens? There is the inevitable division into factions, where one faction will say: “Our way is the way the masters want.” And the other faction will say: “No, our way is the way the masters want.” And so, they are locked in a battle, they are divided amongst themselves, and therefore the house cannot stand, their organization cannot reach its full potential.

Realize, that there will be many different ways to do the same thing, that can all be valid and all be a contribution. For we realize, that in the fallen consciousness there is this underlying mentality, that there is only one right way to do it, and that all should conform to it. Is this not, my beloved, what we have exposed recently in Rome, in the Roman Catholic Church, of the suppression of individuality by the structure? The submission to the structure, thereby the individual suppressing its individual creativity in order to conform to the structure.

Well, if you are ascended master students, question the idea, that in the Aquarian age there will be only one valid religion. Question the idea that we of the ascended masters want to see the emergence of one religion. Question the idea that we of the ascended masters want to see all people recognize the ascended masters and one particular teaching of the ascended masters as the superior religion of the Aquarian age.

In the Golden Age, diversity will be seen as the greatest potential
Do you see the fallacy of the fallen consciousness? What is the essence of the fallen beings and their desire for control? They must suppress not only free will, but individual creativity. Each one of you is an individualized extension of the Creator’s Being. What makes up your individuality? Certain characteristics, a certain crystalline structure, as the Great Divine Director explained recently. Your individuality is the crystalline structure, and when the light of God shines through it, your individual crystalline structure can bring forth an expression that is unique, that is not in competition with others, that does not exclude or destroy or obscure the expression of others. But they all compliment each other, forming a beautiful facet of life.

This concept cannot be fathomed by the fallen consciousness, for to the fallen consciousness diversity can be seen only as a threat—whereas in the ascended consciousness, diversity is seen as the ultimate expression of God. Why did the Creator choose to individualize its own being? Because the Creator wanted to express itself as many individual facets, having them all form, each, a facet of the diamond mind of God. The Creator has given you free will, because the Creator desires to see variety, individuality, diversity.

This is the Creator’s desire; that is why the Creator has expressed itself as many individual co-creators. The Creator could have sat there, as the Creator, and created an entire world – it could even have populated it with robots – where everything was perfect. But the Creator did not desire to do this, partly because the Creator realizes, that such a mechanical creation gets awfully boring after a while. Nevertheless, the Creator decided to express itself through diversity. And so, we of the ascended masters are committed to seeing that expression.

And what is it, that is the essential challenge of humankind? You look back at history, and you see, that what has brought about progress is diversity. The Egyptian civilization may seem to have built great structures, but it did so by suppressing individuality, except for a very few. And the Egyptian civilization collapsed, as did the Roman civilization and other civilizations of antiquity. What have you seen in western civilization of today: a greater and greater expression of individuality, of diversity.

This is the vision that I hold for the Aquarian age. This is the age of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit bloweth where it listed, the Holy Spirit does not like to be confined by these monolithic structures. It wants to express itself through individuals, yet an expression where the individual does not see itself as a separate being – which is the product of the ego and the duality consciousness – but sees itself as an expression of the whole. And therefore, the individual expressions on earth will see their expressions as facets of a whole. And that is how the Age of Aquarius also becomes the age of community.

Come ye into unity by knowing, that you are expressions of the same source. It is not “come into unity by being the same,” that is what the fallen ones have attempted to achieve on this earth for eons. That is precisely what Christ embodied in order to challenge—to show that you as an individual have a right to go against the power elite, to go against the mass consciousness, to go against everything that wants to suppress individual creativity. You have a right to do as Jesus did, to express your individuality, even if it flies in the face of all conventions of your society. You have a right to go into the most holy temple and overturn the tables of the moneychangers, who have set themselves up in that temple, where they have no right to be.

This is the promise of individual creativity, this is the potential. Christ demonstrated it 2,000 years ago, you – who call yourselves spiritual people, or ascended master students, or whatever you call yourselves, but you who consider yourselves to be the more aware people in this age – you are meant to demonstrate today what Christ demonstrated 2,000 years ago. You are not meant to demonstrate, that you can do what people have been doing for 2,000 years, namely submit yourself to a Pope or a structure. You are meant to demonstrate individual creativity and your willingness to express it.

Ascended Master Saint Germain, March 22, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

This is the very foundation for the consciousness of elitism, the consciousness of exclusivity. And this is the consciousness, that humankind has been faced with the challenge of transcending during the past 2,000 years. For by the very embodiment of Jesus himself, the challenge became absolute, in the sense that no human being on earth has been able to ignore it completely. Yet of course, many human beings have ignored it to a very large extent.

And what you see in the past 2,000 years is indeed the pattern, that the majority of the population have wanted strong leaders to rule them, precisely because that meant, that they could ignore the challenge of acknowledging and expressing their true creative potential. Look at the teachings we have brought forth about the human ego, about dramas personal and epic. Look at the teachings and read between the lines, and you will see, that what we have given you are the very keys to overcoming this precise consciousness that I am addressing here. Whereby you overcome your own reluctance to acknowledge yourself as a co-creator with God, to acknowledge your co-creative potential.

We have given you the keys to overcoming this consciousness. Yet the problems here is, that this requires a certain effort, as it seems. It is not truly an effort, in the sense, that you have to struggle against something. But it is an effort in the sense, that you do have to go through a process, that will seem like a struggle. Because you do have to go through the process of raising yourself beyond the downward pull of the mass consciousness—that simply wants to live an unconscious life, an unawakened life. And thus, you have to follow the process – demonstrated by Jesus, demonstrated by the Buddha and other spiritual examples – of raising, of accelerating, your consciousness, your sense of self beyond the level of the mass consciousness. So that you can accept, that you are not simply a human being, you can accept that you are a co-creator with God, you are an individualization of God.

And therefore, you do have the potential to be part of the Golden Age of Aquarius, be part of co-creating and manifesting that age as a physical reality on planet earth. This is somewhat of an effort. Many of you have been engaged in this effort for decades, but you have not fully engaged it—yet. You have fallen prey to a subtle state of consciousness, that we have also exposed in our many discourses and dictations, namely the belief that you can follow an outer path. As we have said before, even in spiritual organizations, there is that consciousness of believing, that if we only study the outer teaching, give decrees or prayers or rosaries, do this or do that, then we will one day ascend.

But as we have explained, most recently by Serapis Bey, the ascension is not an automatic or mechanical process. It will never happen by you doing outer things. The outer things may have a beneficial effect of transmuting energy, but they will not raise your consciousness. For raising your consciousness can only happen as the result of a conscious will, a conscious decision, a conscious choice.

You have been given free will by God, and what has enabled the fallen beings to rule the earth is precisely that they have found ways – clever ways – to subdue free will, to make people give away their free will, to give up their choices, and leave the choices to the rulers, the emperors, the kings and the potentates of this and that system. You have been given an individual free will. It can be exercised only by you, and it can be exercised only consciously. And given the current state of the mass consciousness on earth, it is indeed a certain effort, that is required for you to consciously choose beyond the mass consciousness.

This I freely admit, as it was an effort for me as Columbus to choose to go against the mass consciousness and say, “No, the earth must be round.” We all understand this in the ascended realm, yet we have all raised ourselves above it, and we know you can do the same. We also know, that you can do it only by doing it as we did it: by consciously making the effort, making the determination, that you are willing to be conscious, that you are willing to make conscious choices—conscious choices, instead of blindly following the mass consciousness, or the leaders who claim to have superiority, even infallibility. This is the choice faced here at the beginning of the Aquarian age. Will you begin to make conscious choices—for which you take full and exclusive responsibility? Or will you find some guru or leader, who claims to have some infallible characteristic, and then blindly follow that leader?

For as the Great Divine Director, and my own guru, has recently explained, divine direction is not a straitjacket; it is not that you have one choice to follow divine direction and then you make no more choices, for now you just do what you are told from above. Instead, the reality is that divine direction has only one purpose: it is to help you make better choices and thereby grow in self-awareness and the use of your co-creative abilities.

Overcome the attachment to outcome and stop judging yourself

You see, an aspect of the fallen consciousness is the attachment to specific outcomes and results on earth. And therefore, they have set up this entire consciousness, that certain of your choices are wrong according to some standard. And they use this to get you to judge yourself, until you have had so much pain of making these so-called wrong choices, that you finally reason: “I’ve had enough of making these wrong choices—I will no longer make any choices.” I will follow an outer leader, I will follow a religion, I will follow a guru or messenger. Or, I will seek for some divine direction from someone who will tell me what to do. Well, my beloved, if you are looking for some nonmaterial entity to tell you what to do, I can assure you, that that nonmaterial entity will not be a member of the ascended masters.

For we do not have the goal to get you to a point, where you never make wrong choices on earth. Our goal is your overall growth in self-awareness. And as we have said many times, you can grow equally from any choice you make, whether it is “wrong” or “right” according to some earthly standard. Our only concern is to help you learn and grow, and thereby transcend and grow in your co-creative ability and awareness. That is our concern.

Do you, really and truly, my beloved, believe, that we sit up here and watch your every move and judge you harshly? Do you believe, that for every choice you make, the karmic board is sitting up here with a scorecard, and they put a little check when you make a good choice and they put a minus when you make a bad choice? And they add up all the minuses, until you reach some critical mark and then “Bam” you are going down into that fiery hell, that the Christians have portrayed so vividly for so many centuries. Do you seriously believe, that this is how the karmic board works? Because if you do, I can tell that you, that you have fallen prey to the fallen consciousness and their mind control and their brainwashing, and their projection of these false images into the collective consciousness.

And if you seriously believe, that this is how the karmic board and the ascended masters work, then it is time for you to realize, that you have been had by the fallen angels. And it is time to wake up and throw away these preconceived image, based on duality and judgmentalness. It is time to go within and be honest and say: “I am beginning to see how the fallen consciousness has affected my view of God and my view of the ascended masters. And I am hereby determining – by my free will choice – that I am willing to know God and the ascended masters as they really are. I am willing to know reality.”

My Beloved, ask and you shall receive. Ask with a willingness to look beyond your mental boxes, your preconceived opinions, your epic dramas, and we will reveal our true beings to you. For we are right here with you all the time. It is only in your mind, that there has been created the impression, the image, of a distance, of an unbreachable gulf between you and us. And that unbreachable gulf was created precisely in the fallen consciousness. For there is an unbreachable gulf between the fallen consciousness and the ascended consciousness. There is no question about this. There is a gulf between the fallen consciousness and the ascended consciousness. But you are an individualization of the Creator’s Being, and you have a choice: Do you want to step into the fallen consciousness; do you want to step into the ascended consciousness?”

To which station do you want to attune the radio of your consciousness? Turn that dial of consciousness. It may have been stuck on a certain station for many embodiments. The dial might have gotten a little rusty, my beloved. It might be stuck on a station, that it has been tuned in to for so long, thinking perhaps it was the only station—or that it would get you to heaven if you just kept tuning in to it long enough. So make that effort to wrest the dial free from the corrosion, to get it moving again. Turn it back and forth perhaps for a little while, just to clear the rust and the dirt. But then turn it towards the higher stations, until you reach us. For it is not that difficult, but it has become much easier, as the planet has shifted from the piscean to the aquarian mindset.

It requires less of an effort today to tune in to the reality of the ascended masters than it did yesterday. And, as time progresses, and as the collective consciousness continues to progress, it will require less and less of an effort. But it will still require the choice, that you are willing to question your old mental images, the graven images. Without a willingness to question your graven images, no progress is possible. This is the way it has been always—always. For free will is the essence of growth.

Ascended Master Saint Germain, June 28, 2008 through Kim Michaels.

When I say “the Golden Age,” you might envision a society with beautiful buildings, perfect government, abundance for all people, gold in the streets or whatever grand illusions you might have come to believe. And you may think that this is the Golden Age—some outer manifestation of some opulence. But you see, I, Saint Germain, am not disconnected from the cause of the Great White Brotherhood, including the cause of Christ. For what was the true purpose of Christ? Was it to save people, and force them or somehow get them into the Kingdom of God, even though they have not removed the beam in their own eye and overcome the consciousness that got them out of that Kingdom in the first place? Nay! The purpose of Christ was to raise everyone up to Christhood, so that they could express their creativity. And I am completely one with that purpose.

It is not my plan in the Golden Age first and foremost to bring forth some material condition in this world that lives up to some standard of opulence and perfection. My first and foremost goal is to raise up as many people as possible to express their God-given creativity, and thereby, allow God in them to unfold, and through that unfoldment then bring forth some physical manifestation, according to their creativity. This is my goal, my primary goal, my beloved.

I am not concerned whatsoever about creating beautiful cities with golden streets. I am concerned about raising up beautiful individuals with the golden consciousness that shines and cannot be tarnished by anything on earth, for it retains its shine no matter what it goes through. And therefore, it always transcends current conditions, multiplies the talents and takes it up higher. And that, my beloved, is the Golden Age.

It is not that you will come to a point – ten, a hundred or a thousand years from now – where you will say: “Ah, now the matrix for the Golden Age is finally manifest. And now, we will just enjoy it forever.” The Golden Age is not a closed vision, it is a process of the unfoldment of creativity that can go on forever—or at least until the earth is raised up into a higher consciousness, and the entire material universe is raised up and then becomes a permanent sphere in the spiritual realm, so that we can move on to another sphere and keep the creative process going.

This is my vision for the Golden Age, and what I desire you to understand – what we desire you to understand at this point – is that humankind has reached the turning point. There is an unprecedented potential to lock in to this creative flow, started with Jesus, manifesting then the fullness of Christhood that was the goal of Pisces. But then not only manifesting it individually, but starting to allow that creativity to be expressed through you in bringing forth new solutions that will raise up all life into the abundant life.

See the unique opportunity you have been waiting for

Never before has there been such an opportunity to lock in to that vision, that creative flow—that is God, that is the ever self-transcending God. Do you see, my beloved? This is a unique opportunity in the known history of earth. I am not saying this to cause you to feel burdened or frantic. I am saying it to spur you on to look at yourself and say, “What is it in my own psychology that is preventing me from allowing God’s creativity, God’s light, God’s wisdom, God’s vision to flow through me? What is it that keeps me separated from that River of Life?”

And if you will do this, you will find that there has never been a greater opportunity to actually gain clarity—and if you are willing, then you WILL gain that clarity. We will certainly assist you, both by giving outer teachings and outer tools, but first of all by working with you individually, that you may come to see that last hang-up that we have talked about. Where so many of you are ready to immerse yourself in the creative flow that is Christhood, but there is one last thing, one last illusion, that is holding you back and preventing you from letting go and going with the flow.

This is your opportunity, this is your moment, the moment you have been waiting for, some of you for 2,000 years. For you volunteered to come into embodiment with Jesus to be part of the cycle of Pisces. And yet you were led astray, you lost the vision, you became part of orthodox Christianity, embracing it in various ways until you finally started seeing beyond it and thus find yourself willing to consider a very unorthodox vision of Christianity, such as Jesus has given on his website. Do you see, my beloved? Many of you came to assist humankind embrace the opportunity of Pisces, embrace the potential for manifesting Christhood. And then, giving forth that example, where not one person alone is the Christ, but many other people dare to express their Christhood in their individual ways, so that it is no longer possible to deny or to idolize the Christ.

This is the time you have been waiting for. And there has been something that has been holding you back, either because you were not ready individually or because the collective consciousness has not been ready until now for people to go out and express their Christhood. For people would not have been able to even handle that, my beloved. It would have been so alien to them, that they would have had a strong reaction against it, as you saw the reaction against Jesus.

But I tell you, times and cycles have passed, where it is now time, it is now possible to express that Christhood, to be the Living Christ in action—it is time to let your light shine. It is time to internalize the truth we have given you and shout it from the housetops, even the housetops of the internet or any other means of communication that I have sponsored for this very purpose. And you can quickly see, not only an inner awareness, but also an outer awareness spread around the globe and manifest the victory of raising a critical mass of people to the point of recognizing the reality of personal Christhood. And then, seeing how it can be used to bring forth a new vision, a new society, that does not have all these problems that everyone knows – or almost everyone knows – should not be there.

And you will know this in yourself—how you have not been able to understand how this can go on and no one can see it. Well, cycles have not been there, we had not raised the collective consciousness to the critical level. But I tell you, it is now time, where more and more people will begin to understand—are ready to be awakened. But they need examples, they need the truth.

They need those who are willing to stand up and take whatever reaction comes. For you, my beloved, you are not looking for approval from anyone. You are not looking for recognition. You are the sun shining your light, and it is of no consequence to you what people do or do not do with the truth that you bring. That is up to their free will. But you have chosen to use your free will to be the sun and to express that light. Thus I say, in oneness with Christ, let your light so shine before men that they may know, that this is the light of God shining through you, and that that light may be so strong, that they will come to see that that God is also in them. This is the desire of all ascended masters. This is the goal we are working towards. Choose to be a part of that Flow of Life!

Ascended Master Saint Germain, June 28, 2008 through Kim Michaels.

My Beloved ladies and gentlemen, truly, even though I have been called by the name Saint Germain – and have gained a certain following by people from various New Age or newer movements – I am in no way disloyal to the cause of Christ. I am in fact truly loyal to the Living Christ—in Jesus, in Maitreya and in myself and in all of you here below.

There can be no question whatsoever, that the Golden Age of Saint Germain is not meant to be seen as something disconnected from the Golden Age of Pisces—that could have been a Golden Age if sufficient numbers of people had truly embodied the teachings and the example set so magnificently by Jesus 2,000 years ago. Thus, there would not have been even a need to talk about a Golden Age of Aquarius if Jesus’ example had been heeded by sufficient numbers of people. Instead of the real conditions, where you saw that the Christian Church was turned into a tool for controlling the people and keeping them trapped in the consciousness of anti-christ, and the denial of the Christ within themselves—raising up the graven image that the Christ could manifest only in one person, in Jesus as the only Son of God.

I, Saint Germain, am an Ascended Being. And thus, I am not worshiping Christ from a distance—as so many Christians claim to be doing on earth. For I have been willing to come into oneness with Christ, into oneness with Jesus. For truly, how can there be separation for those who walk the path of Oneness, and who have come to this earth to demonstrate that path and thereby help others overcome separation? There is in no way, shape or form, even a thought in my mind that I could manifest a Golden Age of Aquarius without building on the magnificent foundation set by Jesus. Yet, I must tell you – straight on – that I cannot build the Golden Age of Aquarius on the foundation of current Christianity—because it does not live up to the example set by Jesus.

It is necessary that those who call themselves Christians – or see themselves as having a love for Jesus – will indeed look beyond the outer churches, and will realize, that this is not the true inner message of Christ. And this can never lead themselves or humankind beyond the consciousness that they were meant to go beyond in Pisces, so that they can embrace the freedom of the Aquarian age. And thus, I have said my say for now and will return the floor to my beloved Jesus, that you may truly see the oneness. Perhaps even come to see that although we express ourselves slightly differently, with a different vibration, different tone of voice, different words, there really is no difference. It is almost like the slight turn of the dial between one and the other.

Ascended Master Saint Germain, July 14, 2007 through Kim Michaels.

Yet I must tell you that for this state of California to have an awakening to the consciousness of freedom, well the critical mass of the people need to do exactly what was said in this Freedom Invocation. They need to recognize that you cannot ascend to the consciousness of Aquarius unless you have mastered the lessons of the age of Pisces. You cannot even apply to the master of Aquarius, if you have not been willing to learn from the master of Pisces.

And thus, is it necessary for the people of this state to realize, that the very essence of the message that Jesus came to bring is Christ discernment, discernment between what is real and unreal, what is of God and what is of the duality consciousness. What is it that will enable the people to take back their power, as I spoke about earlier, and stand up to the elite, realizing that they do not need an elite to govern them or rule them or give them access to heaven? Well, it is only that the people recognize the very fact, that the elite has ruled through illusions and lies that spring from the serpentine mind, the duality consciousness. And there is an alternative to that consciousness, namely the discernment of the Christ mind, whereby you can know what is ultimately real and what is ultimately unreal.

Another of the subtle beliefs, the subtle mindsets, that you have been brought up to accept without question is that there is nothing beyond what human beings define as truth. You have been brought up to not question the basic paradigms of the authority figures of your society, be they in Church, or state, or the media or wherever. As Jesus has so eloquently explained on his website, for 2,000 years the Christian Church, the official Christian Church, has been a tool for the power elite to pervert the teachings of Christ. So that instead of setting the people free, they have been used to oppress the people even more.

This then is the state that must be acknowledged and addressed by the people in this state. And as I have already said, there are enough people in embodiment who know the reality of what I am saying at inner levels, that they can wake up and demand change, not only in the religious life but also in the political life and in all aspects of society. What needs to be recognized is simply this: there is Christ truth beyond the dualistic so-called truth. And every human being has the potential to acknowledge that truth in their hearts, if they are willing to seek that truth in the only place it can be found, namely in the kingdom within. Whereby they find the key of knowledge that allows them to divide the real from the unreal.

When those who are the forerunners, those in the top ten percent, awaken to this reality and dare to begin to exercise their Christ discernment, and dare to express that discernment by stating the truth that they see – even if it is not the highest truth, it still will be a higher truth than what is promoted by the elite – when you dare to express that truth, you will see the beginning of a chain reaction that will spread. Because I tell you, all the foundations have been built; it is simply a matter of providing the final push that creates the breakthrough.

Ascended Master Jesus, April 8, 2007 through Kim Michaels.

The essential test of the Piscean age, the essential challenge, was this: would people identify Christ as being outside themselves, or would they identify Christ as being inside themselves? This is the essential test, not only for the Age of Pisces, but it is the test I have been speaking about these past days, where I said there is a filter on the door that leads to the kingdom of heaven. And it is your oneness with the WORD that determines whether you can pass through that filter or are held back by the sense of duality, the sense of separation.

For you to enter the kingdom of heaven, you must discover that Christ – the WORD, the LOGOS – is inside yourself and inside everything else in this world including all other people. And only when you come to that realization – and go beyond mere realization to true oneness with the LOGOS – well only then can you pass through the pearly gate.

Ascended Master Saint Germain, April 6, 2007 through Kim Michaels.

For we are not about going down—we are about going up! There is only one direction for me and that is UP! And if you want to follow me, you have to go up with me, because I will not stand still and wait for you. I have a golden age to manifest on this planet. And I am about my Father’s business. So if you want to be a student of Saint Germain, follow me as I go up! God did not tell me that I had to be the hierarch of the Aquarian age—I made a choice. And I made that choice not out of pessimism, not out of thinking that this world was about to fall apart. I made the choice because I saw the higher vision of the potential of making that Golden Age a reality.

My Beloved, the motto of all pessimists throughout the ages has been, “I am not a pessimist, I am a realist.” There is blind realism and there is the realism based on the vision of Christ. Surely, there are optimists who are blind, but I am not among them. And I do not want you to be among them. But neither do I want you to be among the blind pessimists who think they are being realistic in believing that things can only get worse.

Do you think Jesus would have come to this planet if he thought there was no hope of turning it around? Nay! Why would we expose ourselves to a hopeless cause? Why would we bind ourselves to a planet that was doomed to go to hell? This planet is not doomed to go anywhere. But it surely has the potential to go up, and to transcend all of the old mental boxes that keep people trapped and keep them asleep.

So my beloved – just to stress this point again – what is needed in America today is that the American people are given a different perspective that allows them to step outside of their current mental box and look at America from a greater perspective. To some degree you can get this perspective on this earth by interacting with people who are outside America and therefore are looking at America from outside the mental box. But I must tell you that there is hardly anywhere to go on this planet, where they do not have their own mental box that filters their view of reality and their view of America. So while you can learn somewhat from people in other cultures and nations, you need to raise that vision and seek for something that is totally beyond the duality consciousness. And that something is, of course, the Living Word, which is the only thing that will connect you to a reality that cannot be affected by duality, and therefore cannot become a closed box and cannot become subject to the forces of the second law of thermodynamics.

Jesus came 2,000 years ago to set the foundation for the golden age of Aquarius by creating a tradition, whereby people would have and maintain the direct contact with the Living Word—which would allow them to develop Christ discernment, so that they could not be pulled into the dualistic extremes and become blinded by that relative, dualistic logic. For the only way to avoid creating a closed mental box, creating a closed system, is to be connected to something beyond duality.

And the only thing beyond duality is the universal Christ mind – the LOGOS – which is simply another word for the Christ mind, and has been translated in the English Bible as the Word. But I tell you, it would have been far better if it had been maintained as the LOGOS. Because the LOGOS has a broader meaning than the Word. And I shall let Jesus himself explain this to you. But the reality is that from the very moment that the Creator decided to give beings free will, the universal Christ mind was created to make sure that they could never be lost in the consciousness of duality, the consciousness of separation, but they always had a way back to the reality of oneness. And that reality is the LOGOS, which is expressed in this world through the Living Word. It is the only thing that can help you escape the duality consciousness without having your sense of self-worth broken down.
