In New Thought, the concept of Christ Consciousness

often refers to our Divine Center or Soul, existing

within all of us; serving as our portal or connection

to God. The Hebrew Mystics, who follow the

teachings of the Kabbalah, believe in the existence

of many Soul levels with the “Neshama”-meaning

breath - associated with the highest level of human

spiritual awareness and connection to God.

 

I will consider that if you function from

this “Neshama” Soul or Spirit level, you have

reached enlightenment.

 

I would also say that Abraham, Moses, Isaiah, Jesus

and the other Hebrew prophets, along with Buddha,

Mohammad, Lao Tzu, and many other spiritual 

beings have hit this level of higher awareness and

connection with Source.

 

If you are not Christian, you could easily think

of this as Moses Consciousness, or Mohammad

Consciousness, or Buddha Consciousness

- because I believe all three of these spiritual

avatars listed above have reached an inner

mystical state awareness and Divine connection 

with the Tao, Allah, Source, Universal Intelligence,

Infinite Mind, Universal God-Consciousness or any 

term you wish to use to refer to a Divine connection

with God.

 

Here is a meditative note discussing this level of

spiritual awareness as Christ Consciousness.

 

POWER OF CHRIST 

The answer is within the guidance, the path,

and the way to enlightenment. Live through

the consciousness of your Christ center.

Find the center – move towards it and reach 

for its peace, joy, and harmony with life.

 

The voice of the Christ within you is soft but

profound. Listen internally through prayer

and meditation. Disregard the warnings

of the ego that may pretend to be the voice

of Christ within.

 

You want so much more - money, power

recognition, control, but these are illusions

created by a false reality.

 

Live pure, clear, honest, and loving, and you will

work beyond the ego. Your ego would have you

believe that your actions, or failure to act, create

this reality. Beware of your thinking; it is not a

positive force. The thoughts you have are often

not based on logic but on pain.

 

Be proud and loving and accept who you are.

You are a positive force life force who has

accomplished much under great challenge.

Christ loves you and truly appreciates your

strength, kindness, love, and spirit of adventure.

 

Move to the center – to the Christ spirit within.

VESTIBULE OF WOE

I feel the pounding

of the surf of life

within this vestibule of woe.

Alive we move transfixed

with the dream

fully engaged in the

pursuit of a destiny

beyond our grasp

but within our genes.

I move between two

states of consciousness,

both puzzled by my progress

and too far away to reach either.

Sanity is but an interpretation

of my own twisted perception.

I see this vestibule of woe -

lifelike - a brief passage from

one door to the next –

an entertaining game,

where we find meaning

in forgotten moments,

or are drawn into our

own illusion – until

we gasp for breath,

turning the dark to light,

the night to day.

incubator – noun - an enclosed apparatus

providing a controlled environment for the care

and protection of premature or unusually small 

babies. • an apparatus used to hatch eggs or grow 

microorganisms under controlled conditions.

North American a place, especially with support

staff and equipment, made available at low rent

to new small businesses.

 

At night, peering into the observable universe

with shooting stars and galaxies fully arrayed,

I often wonder at the other planets, like earth,

that must surely abound with life, also populating

this infinite space. Sure that the encounter with

extraterrestrial life will be accomplished as the

beacons humanity rockets towards the outer

limits announce our existence.

 

Yet, recently, my guidance is leading me to

another possibility. One that is strangely

unnerving but has its own logic. That is;

we here on earth, are actually the vanguard

of life in this universe. We are the first step,

and as such, the only sentient, conscious

life that has been so accomplished by this

magnificent universal life form so far.   

 

Ok, let’s focus on this question for a moment.

What if the sentient life we are experiencing

is the first, fully formed universal life, and we

are actually existing within a virtual first cause

test tube world, the first life, the advanced life,

the incubator of all potential universal life?

 

What if we are really at the beginning of

universal time, and we are the evolutionary

offspring of a dynamic, living growing universal

beingness. An offspring created via controlled

evolution, fully equipped with the desire and

capability to explore and inhabit the universe.

 

Although we may shudder at the fate of existing

and future life under this scenario, that is,

life in the hands of what appears to be, at best,

a toddler humanity, a first step is for us to

understand our place in this cosmic universal

life intention.

 

I have been meditating on this very concept,

and while sitting and meditating on my back

deck this morning, I could sense the very life

energy growing and expanding our existence,

always creating, fostering, and supporting life:

pushing us forward; never ceasing.

 

The poem below titled New Life, I believe

was an initial inspired response to these

ruminations.

 

NEW LIFE

Each day life erupts anew, fresh and potent

within the garden of this, our existence,

pulsing, pushing, stretching to reach a slight

step beyond, to grasp a sliver of more,

a morsel of further expanded possibility,

as beneath the appearance of stasis is a struggle

for this furtherance, a preordained unfolding where

the essence of being boils and churns undaunted,  

whirling, as the progression finds its inch,

as it rips at the fabric of this present confinement,

stretching its intention, increasing its volume,

inflating its very boundaries, borders,

expanding with its additional new life;

never ceasing.
