LOVE THAT RESETS THE COURSE OF LIFE
“To experience the love of Christ is to know the state of oneness described by the word ‘inseparability.’ The quality of this all-embracing love is at the core of myriad accounts of souls who have described the Christ they encounter in near-death experiences. Similarly, it is the experience of souls who have tapped into the love of the Soul, the True Self, the Christ within. Their testimony affirms that it is possible to know the spiritual love inherent in the state of oneness here and now, while clothed in bodies of physical flesh and blood. This state completely transcends the separative conscious- ness of the human personality.
When Christ returns to dwell among humanity on the etheric-physical plane, His true nature will be visible. The subtle world of light, now dimly sensed by physicists and esotericists, will be seen by the etheric eye. What will be seen will be akin to what is seen in the ‘heaven’ encountered by people whose physical organs are pronounced dead for a brief time. Radiations of light imbued with love will pour profusely into the atmosphere, pervading the lives of all who are approaching the awakening of Christ consciousness. The most powerful radiations, those that will arouse sensitive souls like an intoxicating perfume, will flow from the Being recognized as Christ.
It is not easy to formulate words to convey the effect of moving streams of light on the etheric plane, where waves of different colors, hues, intensities, rhythms, vibrations and frequencies take myriad forms, shapes, and directions. The words available to us are mere approximations to arouse the faculty of imagination within you, for you have seen virtually nothing like it on the plane of physical density. The Northern and Southern Lights offer the vaguest sense of what will be the background to life.
To convey the impact of Christ’s love-infused light, imagine the feeling of taking a warm bath or swimming in a warm body of water—the sensation of being immersed in a pool of warmth that soothes body and soul. Or envision the feeling of the sun’s warmth on a bitter, cold day. As you visualize these physical sensations, add to the picture a moment in your life when you experienced pure love, when you felt loved for who you are—not for what you could do or give to another person but for your essential being. If you were to merge these sources of warmth and allow them to saturate your entire being, you would sense the effect of the presence of Christ in the coming age.
The new age will not be the ‘heaven’ experienced by human beings whose vital signs are interrupted and who describe entering a realm where divine love is omnipresent and overwhelms concerns about earthly life. That is not what awaits evolving humanity on the etheric physical plane. Many of those who access ‘the heavenly realm’ upon physical death recount the experience of being in a sea of love while undergoing a brief life review. This review exposes mistakes made and how to rectify them when the soul returns to its form, so that adjustments can be made to the karmic ledger. The future experience of evolving humanity will be different.
As the life wave of Earth ascends to the etheric plane, human lives will continue to slowly evolve, until the light of Christ consciousness dawns within the soul. Then the hard work of spiritual growth begins. Christ and his Ashram will be present as teachers and guides, accessible to all who seek the light of Truth and who can bear the intensity of their light. It will not be easy to endure, even for those with a degree of soul awareness. The light to which we refer will be blinding and many will be forced to turn away until the ripeness of time. The path ahead will be steep for those who choose to serve the evolution of humanity in cooperation with the spiritual Hierarchy.
In many ways, human lives will remain the same on the subtler, etheric plane. The principal difference will be the lack of a dense physical body, a state that will accelerate the flow of evolution. The light of the etheric body will allow for easier absorption of the light of understanding. At the same time, it will expose internal wounds and scars from eons of living at the separative stage of human consciousness—wounds that are the wellsprings of violence and destruction. This will turn a searchlight on the emotional body as the seedbed of human misery. The transparency of the etheric centers or chakras will reveal where troubles lie.
Those who can withstand the intensity of light of the World Teacher will rapidly advance from emotional to mental polarization, the state where the force of will can be tapped for the greater good. To overcome destructive patterns etched into the soul over lifetimes requires a mental grasp of the resources for change available to the seeker. This, the Christ will teach but not only in the accepted meaning of that word; He will baptize suffering souls with His love. Those who desire to transform themselves will be immersed in a field of love powerful enough to reset the course of life. It is the soul’s love magnified many times by the avatar of Divine Love and his closest companions.”
