Knock and the Door Shall Be Opened

Knock and the Door Shall Be Opened

Knock and the door shall be opened

 

When you “knock” on the door of the heart, eventually, it will open. (“Knock and the door shall be opened.”)

But, by the Law of Free Will, you need to ask first. (“Ask and it shall be given thee.” ) This opening of the door of the heart, and opening and opening, is what ascension all the way back to God is all about.   (1)

Here’s how the Mother described Ascension:

Steve: [I had a vision] and it seemed to show me that the way to unitive consciousness was that love would arise and sweep away separative consciousness. Unitive consciousness was always already there. It was just overburdened with separative consciousness. Am I correct in that?

Divine Mother: Yes, you are. That is the way. Love will sweep you and the planet [away], and in many ways, dear heart, that is Ascension. Because what it also does is [it] implodes greater consciousness. You do not live in the old realm. Is there more? Yes. But yes, that is the way that you move forward. It is the way that you experience.

And it does sweep you away. That is what I mean by the surrender and the bliss. And, make no mistake about it, you do leave your body and you inhabit your body.

You explode and you feel all the energies of the universe. And then, because you are becoming attuned to that feeling, that ecstasy, it steps down, and then you anchor it within your expanded field.

But each time you do the connection, it expands you more and more and more, and your capacity to love, to create, to do, to be, to connect, more and more and more, until there is no memory, no experience, of separation. It was an illusion. It is a false grid. And it has been the shackles. But it is not real. So, yes. (2)

My heavens. Only the Mother could confirm that! AND find words! What she has just said bears study! (3)

When the heart door or hridayam – which I envision operating rather like a camera’s aperture – opens, we’re flooded with higher-dimensional love. I asked Michael what dimension I was in in that space and he called it the Seventh:

Steve: The space that I call transformative love, what dimension is it?

AAM: It is the seventh dimension.  (3)

Michael says that we’re all of us crossing over the dimensional line, back and forth, usually in our sleep.

Archangel Michael: Think of how every time you … enter the transformative love, that is a snap. It is not the full dramatic snap but it is a snap. Each time you are progressing up what you can think of as a level.

Think of [entering] your love as flying back and forth through the portal. Now sometimes you’re aware and sometimes you’re asleep and sometimes you’re off with me. That is what you are doing and that is what humanity is doing.  (4)

But he also tells us that “we will not interfere with human free will.” (5)

Therefore the first step for us in experiencing the love of the higher dimensions would be to ask the Mother or any divine figure for a heart opening.

Having asked, the second step would be to knock and the door shall be opened; that is, to meditate on the love in the heart, perhaps draw it up on our inbreath, and invite the love within the heart to flow.

It was Always This Simple? Just Love?

It was Always This Simple? Just Love?

Love is delivered to the door of the heart. Knock, knock, knock. Open the door please.

Do you think that I knew at the beginning of writing this article what I did at the end? I did not. This is awareness writing, stream of consciousness, where the writer learns along with the reader.  I’m also quite sure that someone is moving my fingers.

If they aren’t, they’re asleep on the job. 😊

This sounds like such a harsh thing to be saying but I have to say it because I see it as a truth that needs to be known.

And everything said here will be clear as day when the Ring of Fire (Wave of Love, Event, Solar Flare, etc.) happens.  (1) Before that, not so clear – and seemingly far less relevant.

I assert that many fewer than 1% of the people alive on the planet right now know what real (higher-dimensional) love is.  That’s what I realized during the part of 2015 when I was steeped in it. (2)

And if we don’t realize and are not aware of what real love is, then how can we be aware of its invitations, details, or mechanics?

We can’t know the details of something we know nothing about – including that it exists!

I’ll give you an example. Love sprinkles its calling cards all over our aware space. A little wisp of love may float by. Or love will hitchhike on an upward-tending feeling or mood and overlight us briefly.

If we say, “Oh, this is love,” immediately that love returns the acknowledgement by filling us up. And, oh, then we’re in another world – experientially!

But love obeys the Law of Free Will. We must ask, accept, or allow it to enter and fill us up, if only by our actions and the direction of our intentions. If and once we do, it’ll find any crack to enter in.

***

Higher-dimensional love is not simply, to borrow Werner Erhard’s phrase, more, better, or different than what we normally feel. I can genuinely say it’s out of this world.

I did not know ahead of time the amount of lift … not quite the right word … transformation … hmmm. I did not know the amount of being turned inside out, thoroughly washed clean, and left to dry that entering into the flow of higher-dimensional love would bring.

Love is like air in the higher dimensions. Only in the 3rd/4th Dimension is density so thick that experiencing real love is difficult.

Once I asked Michael what I gave up on incarnating and he said lots and lots of memory. (3) I think it may have been outweighed by the lots and lots of love I – and all of us – gave up!

***

I’ve stopped asking people if they know what love is.  Too many people who clearly don’t know say they do. What am I going to say? “No, you don’t”?  I’ve placed myself in a most uncomfortable position.

There are signs that a person knows what real love is. Their movements are more settled.  They seem more relaxed and confident. They’re not in a rush to go anywhere … unless they’ve agreed to become the editor of a busy lightworker blog! (OK, OK, just kidding!)

They know what they want (more love). They know where they’re headed (to more and deeper love).

They know that love is the solution to all problems, the answer to all questions.

They know love is the philosopher’s stone, the talisman, the abracadabra and open sesame that we’re all looking for. Once we’ve found it, the simplicity of it all humbles us and makes us laugh.

It was always this simple? Just love? Oh, heavens…!

Attachment to everything else at the moment of accepting love drops away and I find myself attached only to love. (4)

At Last We Know How the World Will Work for Everyone

At Last We Know How the World Will Work for Everyone

I keep reading articles on freedom of speech that fail to see that it’s a limited right.

Just a few. minutes ago, I listened to a popular conservative commentator say, “I’m a free speech absolutist.” But free speech itself is not absolute, by its very nature.

Protecting one person’s free speech may mean curtailing another’s.

If freedom of speech were not limited, what would be the point of opposing racism or sexism? Everyone would be free to say whatever they like, like “Kill the [fill in the blanks],” and justify it on the grounds of having freedom of speech.

Human rights say: You have the right to live a peaceful and undisturbed life provided you observe certain socially-accepted and fair limits.

For instance, you must observe the religious freedom of others, their right to choose a marital partner, their right to access to education, etc.

We can see that one person’s human rights are another person’s prohibitions.   If I may be permitted a play on words, human rights flourish where human wrongs are prohibited and prevented.

We have freedom of speech except in the case of [and then we list the exceptions]. These exceptions define the limits of freedom of speech.

***

In my opinion, human rights as a concept is something understood only at a certain level of spiritual maturity. Before that, it’s the law of the jungle, living by our strength or wits, brute force, pushing through, etc.

Before that, as well, there’s no acceptance of divine agency – divine will, divine plan, divine direction, etc.

Sooner or later, we all give up the law of the jungle and take up a higher, more humane code of behavior on the one same journey all of us are on. (1)

Once a person surrenders to the life prescribed by a code of human rights, more cooperation arises and more community building.

Next and beyond that, we begin to create global unity, in which case respect and diplomacy become now stressed, rather than simply passively honoring another’s rights.

And then we have a glimpse of domains higher still, perhaps an extended experience of transformative love … and now, introduced to this divine game-changer, this love that sweeps away all sadness and dismay, at last we know how the world will work for everyone. We know the secret to making it work – this higher form of love which removes from everyone’s mind any thoughts of harm.
