Dearest friends!

There is a wide-spread misunderstanding about the function of a Guru, especially in the New Age community. 
This conversation with our God-Self is aimed to bring greater clarity into this.

But before  the actual conversation, it is perhaps first necessary to clarify why I call it “our God-Self”, and not “my” God-Self. Some of you might wonder about it. And I never really discussed this  before.

It is simply a matter of definition. The God-Self in my messages is the One Self of all things, beings and happenings, the One Source and Divine Consciousness of all creation, that is paradoxically also appearing AS individual form and consciousness. So if you believe it should be “my God-Self”, then you are coming from the point of view of your own “Higher Self”, which is the Higher Mind of your incarnate identity. As such it is still an individual being, even if appearing in subtle form.
Whereas Source is the “substance”, the alchemists “prima materia”. “The Mother”,  from which even the Higher Mind or the Higher Self is arising.

As “Our” God-Self is the Oneness of us all, It naturally can speak to every heart, because it dwells at the core of every being.
I hope this serves your better understanding.

In the following conversation I asked our God-Self about the importance and function of the Spiritual Master. As we know, in the New Age movement Spiritual Masters are no longer “in”, because everybody seems to “know” already that they are their own masters and do not need anybody “outside” of themselves to teach. This is of course very true, in case one is really in touch with their own inner Master or very Source.

But there is often a confusion about mind and feeling, the mental substance that is arising in consciousness, and pure consciousness itself which is the domain of mere feeling or feeling attention.
This confusion can lead to the idea that merely thinking one’s Self is already being in touch with It. But what happens in this case is that one has created an idea of the Self, but which is not the Self Itself.

Many members of the New Age philosophy are making this error. It requires a self-transcending practice (“self” written with a small “s”), deep insight, self-understanding and actual “Self-inquiry” to a degree - to come truly in contact with the Self, that is the Mother of the Higher Self. It emerges only when the mind becomes still. When we release all concepts about ourselves and the world, high or low, and when we stop searching.

Now the conversation with our God-Self begins.

Q: Many people believe that a Guru is not necessary and that he/she is  a personality who enforces him/herself on the disciple and makes him/her dependent and weak. Therefore only weak people would be looking for a Guru.
On the other hand it is traditionally  said, that God Is Guru.
What does this mean and how does this work, how can an individual be the Unlimited, the Source, the All-That-Is?

A: First of all, please understand that a True Guru is a shortcut. The relationship with a Guru can significantly shorten the time of one’s spiritual process and Self-Realization.

From the 'point of view' and Realization of a True Guru He Himself (or She Herself) is not an  “other”. This is only the beginner's perception. For  the True  Guru only One exists. One Self or One Divine Conscious Light. Guru is a principle, a function, and not a body-mind, although it may appear to the external observer as such.

Guru is Mirror, is the Divine Force that directly appears – seemingly outside -  to the Seeker who has not yet found his/her own Divine Truth within. But in truth “inside and outside” is the illusion of the Disciple.

The relationship between Guru and Disciple is deeply  mysterious and cannot be understood by the mind. It is based on a Love that is greater than the love between human lovers. And it is based on the truth that Consciousness is primary and body-mind is secondary. Both body-minds, the body-mind of the Guru and the body-mind of the Disciple are arising in Consciousness. Therefore both are sharing Consciousness, although the Disciple is not conscious of it yet, whereas by means of Conscious Realization of the Guru, His/Her body-mind is fully surrendered to the Conscious Light or Energy and is such transmitting It directly to the Disciple.

So a Sacred Spiritual Transmission is taking place in this relationship that is able to awaken the Seeker to his/her own Truth within. However this Truth is not found IN the body-mind. The body-mind only possesses  portals that provide an opening into a higher Reality. In this Reality Consciousness and Light or Energy, the male and female aspect of the Divine are One. In the ancient Indian spiritual tradition it is called the Unity of Shiva-Shakti.

Q: How is it possible that the Realization of the Guru tends to continue to influence the Disciple, even when they are physically apart or when the Guru left the body and even returned to Source Itself?

A: It happens by intention of the Guru, based on Grace and Blessing.  The Guru magnifies the awareness of Self in the Disciple, and he recognizes therefore in contemplation his own Self in the Guru. If the Recognition is True, it is very powerful as it provokes the Guru’s Spirit Force upon the Disciple which initiates  profound and palpable changes in his body-mind while it also alters the DNA and molecular structure. The body-mind of the Guru disappears in the Disciple's deep and self-forgetting contemplation of the Guru and only the One Self remains. What the Disciple first recognizes in the Guru he discovers ultimately in and as Him-Self.

When the Disciple, by the Grace of the Guru, Who is his own Self, finally comes to understand by direct knowing  that there is only One Self, One Radiant Consciousness, and not “two”, he/she acknowledges It as his/her Own. This recognition requires the understanding of one's own body-mind and the permanent capability to transcend it. Then the Guru has fulfilled His/Her purpose. 
But the Love between Guru and Disciple continues eternally.

Beloved friends, here ends the conversation ~ that was rather an experience of deep-felt awe, great stillness and eternal love. 

It is my wish that you can feel it too!
Much love to you all,
Ute

THE GIFT OF 11.11.12: COINCIDENCE OF OPPOSITES

Image by Ute Posegga-Rudel, Copyright ©2012
Please also read update from 21.8.12

Watch on YouTube

My Dear Friends,

The 11.11.12 – how was that? Did you feel the new extreme high energies? This Bright Light? Well it was kind of heaven here on Gaia and it continues to be – frequency-wise. We have been saturated with great gifts and our cosmic  heritage and multidimensionality has been confirmed for many or remembered by many.
Our adventures continue and while I visited this time the Galactic Center (no, not the middle of it :)) but coming so close to It that I could feel a kind of absorption by it, I have been given some revelations and instructions.

One of them I feel moved to share with you all as it might benefit you.

We are together involved more or less with the subject of  ascension into the light on the background of a world that many call a dark prison planet.
What I have been shown relates somehow to this and  provided me with the full picture of something I have been already partially aware of before, and not just in the form of mental knowledge but in form of direct experience.

But here is the entire story:

Having been such immersed in the splendid radiant and indescribable bright light of our Great Central Sun, Thick with Bliss, most Awe-Inspiring, utterly Peaceful and Sublimely Silent and Heart-Deep, but somehow also very familiar, I suddenly saw myself with – yes, believe it or not – two bold horns on my forehead!

Having grown up in a Christian environment, as most of us have who have been born in the  West, - I felt somewhat uneasy, with a trace of shame and guilt, and yes I was a bit shocked too! In the midst of this Bliss. A very strange experience, but even the shock was only an appearance of bliss Itself, it was made of the material of bliss, it was all thick bright light,  if this makes sense at all.

Am I the direct descendant of the devil?, I asked myself startled.
So the first thing then was, if so, that I needed to accept this fully! Oh, my God!!

Whereupon I was shown the entire cycle of the great cosmic round in which the horned one was an episode. What was shown to me appeared partly as an comprehensive holographic image, but also in words.

“It does not matter, how much or how little light a soul  holds, but WHERE in the Great Cycle they are! Who is on the descending path (into density or darkness) can still hold much light, but also who is on the ascending path (returning to the light) can hold much light. Whether one is on the descending or ascending path signifies the degree of development of the soul! Those on the descending path just started their great adventure.

The Ascended Masters belong to the souls who left the path of descension for good. Whereas the Archangels never “descended” into darkness. All depends on intention and purpose.

Judgement, where one on the wheel or cycle exists, is complete nonsense. And because many at this time present on earth are on their way back to the light, there is a common-sense prevalent, that this is “good”. But this scene is only a fraction of the whole grand cycle of Divine Play.

By far not all are on their way back to the light. Many are here, to learn special lessons at this time, while they are on their spiral of descension. So their time has not yet come to ascend. Nevertheless they are great souls as they committed themselves to complete the Great Cycle. As time is illusion, many timelines can coincide. Learning processes are not really linear, they are rather multidimensional.

However there is always a main trend that each soul is following, descending or ascending, in the Great Wheel of their  Evolution.

Regarding the dark beings on your earth, there are those who are on their way to the upwards path, while others have not yet reached the rock bottom of their descending path.

It is depending on the main trend of their soul, whether they are going to turn to the light at these times, or cling to the path of darkness.

Therefore it is a sign of great immaturity and ignorance, to destroy the dark beings, who have committed  the biggest crimes, by dissolving them in the Galactic Center. Rather they have to be given the opportunity to continue to make experiences somewhere else, until they are ready to turn to the spiral of ascension.

All those who are now truly on the ascending path are those who have completed their descending experiences.  

It is not possible to enjoy the Grace of Ultimate Divine Liberation from the otherwise endless cycles of birth and death in the dimensions, high or low, without the whole range of experience of all possibilities of creation - and ultimately transcending them all.

One can travel forth and back, up and down,  here and there in the vast universes, but this will not end in Most Perfect Divine Self-Realization.

Those who dare to descend into the deepest Abyss to offer this experience to the Unbroken Divine Light, are the heroes, they are the most blessed ones, as they have made the greatest sacrifice to glorify the Divine.

This knowledge might teach everyone to respect the “dark” souls as beings who  desire  to realize the Ultimate. It takes much strength and courage to submit to the horrors of separation from the Divine. When a soul commences this terrible journey it does so because it loves the Divine at most.

It requires much self-and ego-transcending practice and understanding, to accept this truth, as the ego, and also the spiritual ego, likes to appear superior or better than others. But the Divine Recognizes Itself in All Creation.”

While I was writing this down I also remembered the teachings of some mystery schools which consider the “devil” to be the Forth Face of God. And even the bible tells the story of the “Lost Son”. The Great ancient Indian Wisdom Teachings emphasize that all Gods are at their core Demons, and all Demons are at their core Gods. And only Divine Self-Realization transcends both. In this State of Realization ALL actions are the same and so called "morality" does not exist, as they are all performed from that Highest, Most Enlightened Understanding.

We might feel uneasy with these stories, as long as we  don’t understand their full meaning. But by Divine Grace,  the form of a devil appeared as Bright Light, as a modification of that Light! 

Although this story is full of paradoxes if we try to understand it with our 3D conceptual mind, this is not anymore the era of the journey of single individuals but that of collective evolution!

And therefore this experience stands for the Healing of the path of descent and the Coincidence of Opposites in the heart of humanity, through the Recognition of the One and Only Divine Existence.  

And exactly this appears to be one of the Gifts of the 11.11.12 event, that is already part of the process of our alignment with the Galactic Center: the Unification of duality with its inherent suffering because of the presumed separation from the Divine.

Humanity is Only One Body, and each one of us is a cell in this Great Body. Each cell communicates with all other  cells.Therefore, after much suffering and experience the dark night of the soul, as a collective we are Given this Graceful Gift of Recognition of Oneness in All Appearances, although some of us might not yet be consciously aware of It. But It signifies the return of the suffering humanity to Truth and the Deification of Creation.

Yes, there is Only The Divine!
And it is our Love That Understands this Truth.

Much love and many blessings,
Ute
