Love Leads Us to a Higher Reality

🕊

Words from Master Teachers:

“There comes a time when the dross of the personality is sufficiently burned away to reveal a soul living in its own light, under its own authority, and no longer influenced by the expectations of others immersed in the world of matter. This is the moment when the love of divinity is experienced more directly. . . It is realized, through direct experience, that the nature of God is love and that the universe is conditioned and permeated by a golden web of divine love—the force that binds forms of life that appear separate into one indivisible whole. This divine love is the invisible engine of evolution, leading all lives at all stages of awareness toward a higher, greater Reality.”

Throughout history, many individuals have spoken extensively about divine love and its significance in a person’s life. Spiritual and religious teachers, philosophers, poets, and psychologists have delved into this sublime potential of the human being, how it develops, and why.

The eighth section of Unveiling the Spiritual Path outlines the steps that lead to the experience of divine love in the life of a seeker. (See Chapter 8 posted as Divine Love on this site).

The process begins when the soul’s light reaches a level of intensity that draws the attention of a perfected human soul in the realm of spirit.

These enlightened Beings have transcended all attachments to existence in the three worlds and have reached a state of selflessness so pure that the love of God flows freely through them.

When this spiritual love pours forth in the initial stages of the path, it does so gently and inconspicuously, allowing time for the individual to adjust to the new realm of energy. In time, as it is recognized, the power of the stream of love increases.

From the time of the soul’s awakening, the seeker begins to notice the manifestations of spiritual love in unexpected ways, such as unforeseen healings, occurrences that seem miraculous, and mysterious coincidences.

Often, when the disciple lacks the will to move forward on the Path, or when the feeling of isolation obscures the way ahead, this love fills the heart and fosters a greater awareness of the reality of the spiritual realm.

Visualize for a moment this flow of divine love from the realm of souls. Tuning in to the breath, allow the air to flow freely. Breath by breath, moment by moment, release and relax all the tensions in the mind and body.

Resting the attention on the still point within, imagine a golden flow of divine love emanating from the realm of souls. Feel this loving energy seeping into your soul—the golden orb situated just above the crown chakra.

Hold this image until you have the sensation of your consciousness being bathed in this golden, sparkling stream of love.

Now visualize the energy trickling down from your soul into your crown chakra. From that point, see it descending along the spine and entering all the chakras in the etheric body. 

Envision this trickle of energy expanding into a stream of golden light––the accumulated light of your soul, enhanced by the light and love of the realm of Souls. Hold this vision for a few moments.

The inner government of Earth––the governing body of love and wisdom that oversees the evolution of our planet––is ever in search of individuals who can meet the requirements for entering their ranks.

Just as human beings and other life forms grow in consciousness, the same holds true for those in the spiritual realms. This vertical spectrum of consciousness resembles a ladder or a pyramid, and on every level of the planet, consciousness continues to expand.

For those who attain advanced levels of illumination in the higher realms, opportunities are given to ascend to even higher ranks associated with Earth’s evolution, or with other planetary lives. Vacant positions within the spiritual realm then become available to individuals on Earth who are mastering the human condition.

We are told that Those in higher realms are always searching for those who can carry out aspects of the divine Plan on the outer plane of Earth. When potential candidates are identified, they are helped along the Path in different ways.

In time, the disciple senses inwardly the source of this aid and the love flowing from spiritual guides and teachers. Realizing the nature of the soul and its capacity to connect with the divine, becomes a source of great joy.

Take a few moments to consider these possibilities as a reality.

The golden web of divine Love shapes and permeates the entire universe. Its aim is to unite all living things into one cohesive whole. At every stage of awareness, the flow of divine Love leads all lives towards a higher Reality.

As one progresses on the path, the limitations of the personality are removed, revealing a soul that lives in its own light, under its own authority, and is no longer bound by the demands of others who are entangled in the material world. The seeker then turns the attention towards the higher dimensions.

In the higher spheres of enlightened Beings, there are no obstacles to the love that issues from the Lord of our Earth. Those who reside there serve as receivers and transmitters of pure spiritual love, both to and from one another, and to individuals who are awakening to the divine within themselves.

Until now, the path to this higher dimension of Earth’s life has been shrouded in mystery. As cosmic and celestial forces usher in a new era with the collective awakening of humanity, countless souls are being prepared for a leap in evolution.
