What Is Truth?

This is Truth: One God, One Self, One Spirit, One Mind, One Existence, reigning alone–Eternally. Truth is ever present —complete, absolute, total, all. Truth is without interval or interruption, remaining identical within Itself. To be or not to be the One which reigns alone, is the issue which is paramount today. To know the Truth that one Self exists alone; or to claim existence of two—God and humanity—reveals one’s present Knowledge or belief.

Truth stands alone. Truth has no opposite. Truth has no supposititious antipode. Truth has no second. The teaching that we must develop from one state to another, emerge from matter into Spirit, and be translated from a material existence into the spiritual World, is a denial of the sacred, everlasting Truth that GOD is within us; CHRIST is within us; THE KINGDOM OF GOD is within us—right where we are Here and Now.

Whatever is true and perfect remains true and perfect always. Never can there be a becoming state of Reality. Our true and perfect Self is here NOW. Time and place are unknown to God. How far away from us is our Self? It is always right where we are. It knows no one is present, no one is here, but Me. In Me, there is no fear, no darkness nor veil, nor myth of Adam and sin, nor warfare, tribulation and death. I AM the One World, The ONE I AM THAT I AM. I yield My glory to none other.

We have no self or mind that is human or body that is material; no human self, mind or body can ever be. WE ARE THE ONE WHO EXISTS ALONE. All contrary beliefs must be surrendered. Truth comes as Revelation to him who, surrendering all belief of himself as another beside the One, and with his whole heart loving the Infinite unseparated ONE above all else, rejoicingly identifies himself as the one Self, the one Being, Mind and World—SPIRIT.

The one universal Selfhood was never severed. Not anything was ever lost; nor is there something to be gained. The real Self is our only Self. This Self is God. Other than the Self, There is no God.

Dear One, if you would be whole, happy and free, then identify yourself as the true and real Self only. Whatever is not true should not be considered or tolerated. Freedom consists in knowing what Truth is, and in being Truth. To know what Truth is, and to be Truth, provides our perfect answer to every question, rendering certain and sure our complete safety, security and happiness, here and now.

Thoughts may change, doctrines and laws undergo revisions, but the Truth that the perfect Self is our only Self, reigns alone—Eternally.

Come Home

Live the truth you know,
and you will know the freedom you seek.
Wait on no one.

Is it not time to surrender
that last trembling trace of your dreams?
Would you grasp a drop of water
while about lies the vast ocean?
Come home with Me, beloved.
Truly,
come home.

Rest now.
Daily I will come to you,
for we quicken our pace now,
and much there is to set in place.
Be that which Father has given unto you.
For as I, too,
had need of surrendering,
so does every soul upon every plane
within every universe.

The choice is simple:
Life, or continuing illusion.

Deep is our love for you who suffer,
yet demand that your suffering continue.
Deep is our love for you who seek us,
only to avoid us.

You have asked,
and we have answered.

The end of the Dream is certain.
Gently nod your assent,
and the world shall be no more,
burnt forever in the blaze of Reality:
the Kingdom of the Holy Father.

Come home,
beloved children,
Come home.

Amen.

Four Degrees of Christian Living

My spiritual friend in God, this book is an attempt to pass along to you some important lessons learned from experience.

There are four degrees of Christian living: ordinary, extraordinary, unique, and ideal. We can experience the first three in this life, but the fourth is heavenly. Yet by the grace of God, we may begin the ideal here and see it continue for all eternity. I list these four degrees as stages in ascending order.

If you make progress through these stages, the merciful Lord has called you and is leading you to himself by these same degrees.

Early in your life, you lived in an ordinary manner with your worldly friends. The everlasting love of God created and redeemed you. God also inspired your desire for him. It was as though God attached to you a leash of longing and led you to himself. God brought you to the place where

you can be a servant among his special servants. You have an opportunity now to discover a deeper spirituality. New possibilities await you.

Consider your own life. Notice God’s love drawing you carefully, almost imperceptibly, to the unique third degree of the Christian life. You stand on a steppingstone, the starting place of the road to ideal spirituality. You may begin living on this level now, before you die, as well as for eternity.

Becoming Me : A Story of Creation

The Cosmic Play

by Martin Boroson ©2000

We humans seem hard-wired to wonder about the really big questions, such as who we are, and what--if anything--God is. C. G. Jung once said that although he could not prove the existence of God, as a psychiatrist he knew that the human mind was built to have an experience of God. In other words, just as our minds have “programs” that enable us to feel sadness, anger, and ecstasy, and to think creatively and learn a language, so too have we a program that can help us “read” life in a spiritual way. Even if we have not experienced this program personally, it is reasonable to assume that it exists, simply because so many sane and wise people, throughout time, have reported its benefits. Providing that we can locate, download, and learn how to operate this program, it can give us a pretty amazing experience, an experience that many people call, among other names, God.

The greatest spiritual masters are those people who have accessed and mastered the most powerful applications of this program. When asked about the really big questions of life and death, creation and evolution, they give us a remarkably consistent set of answers, sometimes called the “cosmic game” or the “divine play”. This view provides some fascinating, moving, and colorful answers to our most profound questions about why we are here, and what is the nature of reality. My creation story, Becoming Me, tells one version of this timeless spiritual viewpoint." ........

....... "At the summit of a spiritual search awaits a direct experience of the ultimate, a kind of final destination. This experience gives you a feeling of immense satisfaction, as if you had discovered a clearing in the center of your soul, in which all things are embraced, and everything is profoundly at peace. From this perspective, beyond time and space, there are no limits or boundaries in the universe. Sometimes this is experienced as pure light, or pure mind, or pure possibility. You are resting at the Source, the Creative Potential behind all things. From the perspective of this Source, everything else seems relative. The universe is a reduction of infinity, a sub-division of the whole. Creation (and ourselves as parts of creation) are temporary rearrangements of this seamless whole, and so we are not really independent, separate things. In fact, we are not really real.

This isn’t how we normally think of ourselves. In our normal state of consciousness, the world looks like it is composed of individual, finite, and separate things. We know ourselves as a collection of things that define us. We are a body, some feelings, some ideas, our past, and our imagined future. These things define our boundaries, the difference between what is “me” and what is “not-me”. Almost everything we do is geared to preserving (and enhancing) those things that define us. But if you want to experience the divine Source, you can’t do this as “you”, because you are just one bundle of boundaries, and the Source itself is limitless, eternal, and boundless. And this is why, if you are seeking the Source, you must ultimately empty yourself. You must relax your boundaries. Your sense of self must die, which is just another way of saying that you must discover that you are really an illusion. What you thought was you is really just a set of limitations. You are, in fact, the Source, pretending to be you.

But why then are we trapped in this apparent world of time and space? Why do we believe our boundaries? Why does the divine Source bother to create such an elaborate fantasy? The answers to these questions are best summarized by the beautiful statement from the Kabbala: “people need God and God needs people”. It seems that being Eternal and Infinite can be a bit boring. Or that even God can get lonely, and crave a playmate. Or that God is like a great artist or inventor, with so much creative talent that it simply must make things. Creation begins when, once upon a time, on the still surface of perfection, an urge or desire for something else bubbles up, like a wrinkle in timelessness. And from this wrinkle, the created world, a sub-division of infinity, begins.

From within itself, the Source gives birth to an imaginary world, like an enormous film or play. We are characters in this film, unaware of the drama we’re in, unaware of the Source who creates and projects us. God is playing with us, and is playing through us, like a big hand with so many finger puppets. This is done with delight and curiosity, the way a loving parent sees the world afresh through her child’s innocent eyes.

The goal of the cosmic game is for you to discover, in a way that satisfies your own particular tests, that you are an aspect of the divine. This is the moment when you discover the God-program buried in your hard-drive. You learn its language, and start to surf the web-of-life from its custom browser.

In the search for this program, you have been challenged to let go of what you thought you were. But even then, there will still be enough of you left to enjoy the illusion of your life. What happens really is that you are no longer just-you anymore. You are also God, having a once-in-eternity experience of being you. It’s like having the best of both worlds.

And so, although the game is over, the playing is about to begin. Because with this new awareness (that life is not quite so real) and with your new, relaxed identity as both God and you, you can watch and play and live your life with less fear and judgment. You can live more lightly. You can watch the birth of new life and new love. You can witness new technologies and new cultures and new disasters and new heroic responses to disasters.

You can feel deeper compassion for all things in creation, who are also you, and also God. You can love and cherish this planet, a world that you co-create every time you open your eyes. And with the power of your awareness, you can help nudge the game, or tilt the odds, just that little bit closer to their final goal ... which is simply that all beings realize who they are. You can lose yourself and find yourself and lose yourself again. And you can fall madly in love with this beautiful illusion, just as it is, over and over and over again.

I Am The Way, The Truth, The Life.

Those who would share My vision have but one duty:

To choose wholly,
to rest in the peace they already are
Craving not the world,
having set above and apart the Kingdom
of the Blessed Father,
serving God not through doing,
but by loving the presence of the Kingdom
above imagined fantasies,
or that which the world is.

For if any man loves the world,
love for the Father is not in him.

How many dare to accept this simple truth?
It is the key,
given freely to anyone who would pass through
the eye of the needle.

I love you.
Can I do other but love that which I AM?
For those who see it not,
the blaze of your glory shines before Me.
I see not but Myself,
the Son of God.
See with these eyes, and these alone.
Herein lies the salvation of the world

~ Jayem / The Jeshua Letters:
A Remarkable Encounter with Jesus ~

I Am

Be not hopeful of good for the New Year, but ASSURE yourself of good by daily beginning your activities with a silent, inner realization of His presence, His grace.

There is nothing deeper in the spiritual literature of the world than the two words, I AM. As a matter of fact, when you are in the depths of despair, those are the only two words that can come to your rescue – not what I would LIKE to be, not what I HOPE to be, not what I am TRYING to be through the use of all these words. In the end, you will realize this: What it is I am seeking, I already am. You will then give up all this physical effort and mental effort. You will give up all the struggling. Why struggle for that which I already am? Do not try to be more spiritual; do not try to be more moral; do not try to be more good; do not try to be more anything. Give up the struggle; stop trying to be one thing other than that which you are now are; settle back and realize: That which I am, I AM. All that God is, I AM. That which I am seeking, I AM.

~ Joel Goldsmith from "The Heart of Mysticism" ~

Light

Spirit, God, is one infinite, indivisible, pure and perfect Selfhood; and there can be no personal self, being, mind or body. Spirit is our Life, our Life is Spirit. Spirit is our Mind or Consciousness. Mind or Consciousness is our Spirit. Spirit is our Body, our Body is Spirit.

Spirit is our only Self, I or ME-boundless, immeasurable, timeless, spaceless, incorporeal. There is no mortal, human or material being, mind, self or body.

Spirit is our only Self, I or ME-boundless, immeasurable, timeless, spaceless, incorporeal. There is no mortal, human or mate-rial being, mind, self or body. There is but "ME"-I AM the One who is real and present.

When this new revelation is seen and accepted, there will be no more sickness, sorrow, disease, pain or death. As the belief and teaching that we are mortals, humans or mankind is done away with, there will be no misbelief, misconception, erring teaching or wrong thinking.

Seeing that the One Self, "I" or "ME" reigns alone, and that there can be no other identity-whether as mind, consciousness or body each one should reject and discard the beliefs and teaching which identify oneself as man, humanity or mankind; for within this very identification lies the subjection to suffering, disease and limitation. Our deliverance, therefore, is not from suffering, worry, fear or old age, but that one ceases to believe or accept that he is a mortal or human being, and that his body is material or physical.

The healing of disease will never be the termination of disease, nor can the healing of suffering bring an end to suffering; nor will the denial of matter do more than continue to keep one in the belief that he is a mortal, and that his body is material, thus prolonging his association with sickness, lack and suffering.

This new revelation is bound to come universally. The time is here, not only for us to know the unadulterated Truth, but for us to speak it out loud. Spirit is our only Self, Spirit is our only Body, Spirit is our only World-complete, perfect, present. Spirit is the only "I" or "Me".

Because of this deeply profound revelation-that Spirit alone is all, and that nothing else is present here and now but Spirit, God, the ONE-there must come an end to the belief and teaching that we are mortals, humans, humanhood or humanity.

Perceiving that one's Self or I Am exists alone, one should forthwith renounce and relinquish all belief and teaching which keep him subject to mortality and suffering by identifying him with another self, mind and body not the One.

In the Light of our pure, boundless, unrestricted love for Truth and Reality, and in the certainty of our pure vision and perfect knowledge that there is one Self, one Consciousness, and one world only, we know and we declare that there was never a deflection of being, 'nor a creation of mortals. We know we are not a mortal! We know we are not a human mind! We know we are not a material body! We know we do not live in a human existence!

Truth exists alone. The one I Am, the one Selfhood, is Principle, Power, Life and Being. Let no one continue to believe that he can find out what Truth is by reversing error or by denying material senses. Knowing by Spirit within, that Truth IS, one simultaneously knows there are no material senses. Identified as the One Mind only, one has no consciousness of, or belief in,

error.

The fact should be evident, that only one's belief that he is separate from or other than the one Self, Being and Mind, causes him to believe in mortal beings, material senses and error; and thus allows him to be subject to problems, vicissitudes, limitation and sorrow.

As soon as one sees and accepts the revelation that God, Spirit is the whole of him, and the whole of all, and that he is not separated from God, nor from Spirit, he will then know naught of material testimony, mortal belief or human existence.

His only remedy for sin, sickness, suffering and limitation will be his own perfect knowledge and awareness that Spirit is his own eternal Selfhood, present here and now as the totality of his life, being, world and existence.

No error or evil made a mortal man. No human concept ever existed. Sin did not create a sinner, nor was sin self-created. Self-created matter, self- destructive evil or self-constituted falsity never existed or seemed to exist; nor will error or evil be self-destroyed. All such theories and beliefs have as their only basis the fabulous religious doctrine of original sin and separation.

As long as one infinite God remains one infinite Selfhood, Mind and Universe, there is no material creation, no mortal being, no human mind and no corporeal body.

Reader, fear not to examine carefully what you read, and what teaching you accept; have this thought in mind: does it identify you with perfection, purity, wholeness, harmony, peace, serenity and happiness right here and now—or—does it relate you to problems, labor, struggle, suffering and limitation by identifying you as humanity, humanhood or mankind, with a mortal, human body, living in a human existence?
