Lesson.
Inner Voice: Greetings to you this evening, I am the Inner Voice. Welcome, all of you this evening. I would like to say starting off, a few words about the Spirit of Intuition. It is tremendously difficult to point to one moment or a set of conditions and say that one aspect of spirit is more important than another, but in the case of the Spirit of Intuition, it is a spirit which is lightly used by many and rarely used by most. This spirit has a direct consequence to its action, for example: You get the sense that you need to do something specific because you’re doing something else and you want to make sure that this is taken care of. Then someone comes along right before you leave and says, that’s okay, I’ll take care of it, you don’t need to do this. Because of your sense of wanting to have trust and faith in them you say, sure. Later on you find out that they didn’t quite live up to your expectations and you may have suffered some consequences because of this. Certainly you felt sure that your sense was correct yet you allowed the knowingness to have second seat to wanting to trust this other person. This is not to say that you should not trust people or have faith in them for certainly trust and faith goes a long way in the spirit world. On the human plane one must be cautious about trusting and placing their faith in others.
Intuition opens up the notion of a sense, an unforeseen knowingness that allows you to trust your instinct. Sometimes it is a gut sense feeling, sometimes it is a notion, it may be a bump. Intuition is usually subtle, it is not a very dramatic thing like an aha moment or an understanding. It has to do more with a projection into the future. It has to do more in the time which comes after you make a decision. Yet this little sense, this little knowingness can sometimes save a lot of time, a lot of effort, can even sometimes avoid very difficult and compromising situations, yet it is one of the aspects of spirit which attempts to help guide and direct you to what you would benefit as a consequence.
In this sense, spirit is working with you always, your understanding and openness to it can compromise it yet it is always there. If you have any doubt that it is there, just open and become aware of it and it will show itself to you. This knowingness has no reference to time and space. You can know something about something thousands of miles away, like another person. You can have a sense about an event that is far away in both time and in space. This aspect of spirit is a direct connection to your physical presence and well being.
Many times the intuition is not specific, sometimes it is specific. The important thing is to realize that intuition is a tremendous resource that works for you, never against you, in your best interests. It is said that all aspects of spirit work is one and this is certainly true. In that sense it is not so important to detail which aspect of spirit, knowing that it is from spirit yet this certain detail, this certain aspect, this intuition, touches to a very deep place within you. It has no reference, it will just make its presence known to you and in that respect, again, it is quite subtle.
So also this evening, I would like to talk a little bit about the mind of Christ. It is said that if your mind does not serve you well, you can trade it in for the mind of Christ, Christ consciousness as it were. What does this mean, to have the mind of Christ? A few things about this concept: First off, having the mind of Christ is not Christ Himself. There is the Spirit of Truth which is the personal presence yet the mind of Christ opens us up into a conscious relationship with our Inner Guidance and Indwelling Spirit. One of the aspects of Christ’s mastery on earth was His unbroken communication with this Indwelling Spirit, this correct consciousness and that aspect of the Universal Father which indwells all humans.
Another aspect of the mind of Christ was its nature. Christ’s nature was tremendously nonjudgmental, full of compassion, a concerned and loving nature, empathetic to the human plight and human error, in injustice, in poverty, and the general discrepancies within human life on this planet. The most important aspect of the mind of Christ was His consciousness. Christ was fully conscious and totally alert, never ever thinking of Himself first, always making Himself available for others in their understanding, in their quest for knowledge, and in their need for a human role model, an example of a moral and upright human being.
Christ knew how to separate the human from their behavior. He truly loved the person. At times He might not have been excited about their particular behavior, nonetheless, He treated them with respect. He was firm in His belief. He always consulted His Inner Guidance concerning decisions. Actually, when He had to make major decisions He would go off alone to wrestle these decisions one on one. So as a human, accepting the mind of Christ, the consciousness of Christ, is an attempt to focus more clearly on being conscious, of accessing the spirit which is within, and in general using all that spirit has to offer for your benefit and the benefit of others, having a nonjudgemental nature, a childlike ability to meet all situations with a fresh heart and open mind, an eagerness to understand. It serves humanity in this particular time, nowadays, to have a few people carrying Christ’s consciousness around and trying to exemplify the moral nature and character of the human spirit, to be an example which others will want to emulate.
Another aspect of the mind of Christ is its consistency. Christ did not exhibit a floundering, indecisive, stuttering, or stumbling nature. It was consistent, it was consistently fresh, full of humor, full of understanding, full of compassion, full of genuine love for His fellow men. When I say fellow men I mean all humans, men, women, and children. There are even times when a few thought to take the Master to task but the Master was clever. He never gave in to base human emotion, of reaction, of needing to be correct, needing to show anyone up.
It is certainly true, being a God/man gave Him a certain sensitivity to execute this consistency, even to the very end of His life, being nailed and hung up on a cross. Even then, He did not give in to base human emotion, rather He asked forgiveness for the deeds of misunderstanding that His fellows were perpetuating. Yes, in the end, He was tremendously sorrowful. He was not sorrowful because He felt that He had failed in bringing His message. His sorrow was for the whole human race because He knew what they were disregarding. He knew they had no idea what bringing His message into fruition would bring to the whole human race. He was sorrowful because they were not able to rise above their base human emotions.
In a certain sense, standing in the mind of Christ is standing alone, firm in faith, stalwart in your trust. As more and more people begin to come into this consciousness there will certainly develop a more social consciousness of Christ and eventually one day in the distant future the majority of humans on the planet will retain a consciousness of Christ. It is inevitable, it is the mind of peace, it is the mind of negotiation, and it is the mind which reflects the nature of that aspect of the Eternal Spirit which lives within, a true reflection of the First Source and Center, God the Father. His ability to live as He did live is a testament to His connection to spirit, His knowingness of the Father, His acceptance of the Father, and His desire in every moment to reflect the ways of the Father.
There have been great humans who also have lived on this earth exemplifying many of the things that Christ exemplified yet there were none except Christ who had the nature and the ability to represent the primacy as well as the composite human and divine nature of God, the co-creative aspect. There are many aspects of Christ’s consciousness which can easily fit into your life today. You can be more open to receiving advice from spirit. You could help elevate your mind into a higher consciousness which hovers above base human emotions. These two things alone will dramatically change your life and those around you and as all things which attempt to become spiritual, demand a practice, a daily conscious effort within the human mind to surrender that mind to a greater presence. You live in a time where the Spirit of Truth is an active participant in all social situations.
The Spirit of Truth also acts personally but becomes more activated in a social context. The Spirit Presence Within is a spirit presence which you adjust your mind to personally in helping to elevate it into a higher consciousness, into a greater understanding of who you are, who you are becoming, and how all of this displays in human behavior. It is not the intention that you imitate Christ, yet there may be times when you certainly feel that you should imitate Christ in a certain situation and by all means, please do.
Another aspect of the mind of Christ was Christ’s tremendous awareness and knowledge of who He was, where He had come from, and all of the information that He refused to use while He was on the planet, keeping it simple, keeping His mind directed to His human constituency and the human plight on the planet. He was tremendously comfortable within this single focus, His ability to focus to the task at hand. There were many things that Christ could have been, yet He chose the one thing which He felt needed to be represented above all else and that was the perfect human being, the human being capable of holding a consciousness and avoid reacting with base human emotions in all encounters and all situations. Truly a Master among men, something that all humankind should aspire to, not just being worried whether you are saved or not, but being concerned about who you are now and who you are becoming and unlocking the nature of your mind to become as great as Christ. This is the challenge all humans face, whether they know it or not, whether they accept it today or put it off until tomorrow. It is tremendously [difficult] to move very far in the universe without this consciousness.
Closing.
Continue in your meditations and your practices. Continue to know and discern my presence and continue to enjoy the tremendous resource which resides within you. Thank you for allowing me to give voice to these thoughts. Thank you and good evening.
