Living the Christ Life
Transcript
anybody that's heard me teaching for any you know a decent amount of time should really it should be evident to them that Michael teaches this concept of God first well we know that but also about Christ consciousness not a not a Jesus II thing Christ consciousness but but what it really is what Jesus attained Christ as a consciousness and so yeah I do teach about God if you really put it all in a full sentence or sentences it's really about connecting with God integrating God into our lives and then bringing that to the world
that's it in a nutshell and that's another way of saying God first and then when I say integrating God's presence integrating God's presence is what Christ consciousness is the presence of God or the I am presence of God within us but then bringing it to the world now too often in especially an old-school work you know old-school spirituality there was this idea that when you truly dedicate you know you kind of go and live up in a cave somewhere that's not what what it's supposed to be about mind you there's
nothing wrong with that you could do that for lifetimes but eventually someone's going to say how are you going to interact now that you've been in the cave getting all holy how do you deal with with people how you gonna do when you get out there and deal with humans oh I don't have to deal with humans I just stay in my cave well eventually you got to call out for Domino's and when they show up the Himalayan branch of course when they show up late or brought you the wrong pizza you're gonna deal with
human stuff again so so to a degree people that tried that aesthetic route withdrawing from the world into a degree that's hiding you still got a you know show up there's been case histories of these masters from the Far East and you know the Himalayas that that have come to America on tour they're gonna tell us about masterful living and ended up quite sick when they came to the states and ate foods that we have in the States so I think it's great mind you the purification and all that but at the
same time when they ate these other foods if you're that holy it shouldn't be destroying you forgive me for saying that because I know some of you that's gonna be irritating but it's true we're supposed to feel so alive like the individual who you know when Ram Dass was experimenting with LSD and brings that to a master you know and says check it out we have ways in the States were you can become you know clairvoyant in a minute rather than having to take a lifetime to develop those skills and
he's holding a handful of you know acid drops and he just took them all the master just took them all and you know Ram Dass is like no no no no no man don't do that it didn't affect him at all he's saying what you're doing is still synthetic it's still magic it's still a game you still don't get it you try to do what I just did having these synthetic experiences doesn't mean you're holy so you know mind you love and respect to those masters who who reach a certain state of living but then
when people stare irritate you how masterful are you and we all get irritated when this is life on Earth what do you do about it and your immunity should be really high immunity on all levels I'm talking about even patients with people should be high so there's talking the life and then there's living the life and you know there are people that can only eat garbage literally living on the streets how can they be less holy just because they're not able to eat these perfect refined foods from the you
know spring waters and the Himalayas or whatever we've tried all kinds of ways to be holy and they too often don't work some of them take so much of your time it's not really efficient that's one reason why Buddha was saying you know the previous teachings that we followed he's saying in their area the Far East he's saying it was the the hindu system and it's wonderful mind you great great great all kinds of great things about it but buddha's saying but but they still tell you it's gonna take you hundreds or
even thousands of lifetimes to become holy and he says i I believe you can do it in one lifetime see that rocks the world of people that are invested oh no no no it takes forever so the Hindu are waiting for their what thousands of lifetime because if your affirmation is still it takes a thousand more today never arrives it's always later the Jews are waiting for the Messiah but they're always waiting he's not allowed to actually arrive that Christians are still waiting for the second coming you know cuz eventually he
will win well eventually so now we have eventually let's all get our calendars right eventually then now never shows up so Buddhist saying in one lifetime and the Christ that people are waiting for is the one we have born within us and it's a choice we make so all the religions which is going to be typical of a religion because this is what they do everything has to be eventually when Jesus arrived and he read from the scriptures in the Holy Land and he read from the scriptures and talked about the Kingdom of Heaven and he said the
kingdom of heaven will one day arrive etcetera etcetera that's what everybody expects to hear then he throws in closes the scroll and says guess what it's today and the Bible tells us they removed him from the temple and tried to throw him off a cliff nobody wants to believe being now nobody wants to believe it could be now it irritates people for various reasons there's religions that might make a living on it being eventually so that's gonna irritate their pocketbooks of course in one way or another but there's
people that are scared if it's now well I am not quite dressed right let me let me get my best suit on or whatever if it's now what does it mean it am i living the life so to me God now let it fill me as much as possible and let me bring that change I don't need to compare how much you're living the Christ life to mine because then I'm not living the Christ like when I do that but what does it mean to live the Christ life I don't know I'm gonna connect do my best to integrate it and then it
becomes kind of organic at that point I can still screw it up but if I get out of the way I'm basically saying what would I do if I were plugged in most traditions and ceremonies and exercises and techniques are all about doing something to get spiritual or holy or purified try doing it as though you already are still do the stuff let me do your thing you can fast I don't care stand on your head fast go for hikes up in the Red Rocks all I'm saying is instead of going to do or going to get do it all that's great but just imagine
what it's like to do it as though you're already there that's all just somewhere in the back of your mind have this attitude make believe that you're already there it's amazing the shift that happens if you meditate and you go Cavanaugh I'm gonna call them and center and I want to get nice and quiet okay but oh shoot I gotta think I'm thinking about the kids okay wait quiet and then you know oh you know what I'm gonna have for dinner know what quiet it you can do it's okay but that's an exercise it's a
discipline quiet the mind quiet the mind quiet the mind but then there's another technique what if I were quiet what would that be like and do that go into it as though you are quiet instead of trying to get quiet do you see the difference it's amazing what it'll do for you not the least of which would be if I do it as though I already a.m.
do you understand that I'm actually activating my imagination instead of trying to use my thinking mind to Center myself I just override the thinking mind and go to my imagination which all the greats would tell you is that your higher mind imagination is a far higher function than intellect so I just go into it just imagining that I'm already there and it's just like oh my god so I could try to get clean and sober I can also imagine that I'm there and it makes the efforting far less see this is partly what it means of myself I am
nothing the part that's going to try to do it all and get it right is one part Jesus says in A Course in Miracles you know you can fast and you can lay on a bed of nails and you can do a lot of work to prove to yourself that you're not a body and he doesn't dissing he actually says it'll work it'll just take you a long time and it's fairly painful have you tried laying on a bed of nails to prove that you're not a human he says it'll eventually kind of work he just said it but it's not really efficient
just imagine that you're there and then act like it imagine you you're there and then act accordingly and it sort of trims everything down a bit you've all heard probably the dick I used a quote of this quote I quoted this from Descartes I think therefore I am and then Pascal changes it and it's like I love therefore I am he's bringing like the Philosopher's version Descartes I think therefore I am really brilliant person - I think therefore I am I think it's Khajiit there congedo ergo
sum I think therefore I am but then mo like more ammo ergo soon I love therefore I am then William James you know he says I do therefore I am it's kind of you know they're all right in their own sense but I would say it differently I would say I all that I do comes from what I know to be loving therefore I am if all that I do instead of I think do or love put those three together all that I do comes from but I say I know first that's the thinking I know I I will do what I know to be loving therefore I am because
Jesus makes a sort of a comment about I think therefore I am and I mentioned this the other day but quickly he says Descartes should have said I think therefore I'm not because as soon as you think you're an individual thinker instead of one with God and only being able to think as God you're already out of your mind so as soon as you think you should say I think therefore I'm not because what you're doing is the little I is thinking all that proved is that you have a little self running somewhere to say I don't
even think independently anymore this is why Jesus is saying when you see me you see the father he's he's like saying there's nothing I would think say or do that wouldn't be an expression of the divinity watch this all the way down to the physical level all the way down to day-to-day actions so instead of floating around the world acting holy can you can you bring it down to the parenting level can you bring this Christ eating all the way down to the relationship level most people can't
most people don't even try because it seems impossible I'm gonna be all in this lofty Christ II spiritual oneness with God and then have to go and eat foods like the Masters experience when they come here and get sick from the food's here it's you can't detach to prove that you're here and holy here the detachment means you're already seeing this place as flawed and needing to detach from it that's why it's very important to understand Jesus didn't float around on what we used to
call you some of you are old like me or remember the commercial it's called the Colgate invisible shield you know for you youngsters back in the 60s they had this commercial where people would be floating on this shield you know this little platform they just float it means they brushed with Colgate therefore they're now skating through life everything's you know protected so Jesus didn't float around on the Colgate or Christ II and visible shield he comes here why does he cry when Magdalene says
my brother's dead and she's crying and he cries with her well you know I heard some brilliant brilliant Course in Miracles teachers say Jesus could not have actually felt pain during the crucifixion because it would have confirmed that he believed in pain and things of the illusion and this is somebody I very much respect and he's wrong because that is the point Jesus is trying to tell us in his life activities among other thing he's telling us he's telling us despite the pain you are something else
he didn't say override the pain so he's showing us you man you got to show up human beings think and it's logical logical is heck there's some cold pool of water if I only put a toe in I don't get as cold as if I jumped in that's logical so human beings think you know this world stinks this world is heavy it's harsh it's abusive and so on it's all true so you know what I'll do is I won't show up I'll just kind of be floating you know kind of you know it detached from the world never never you
know constantly bruises on my leg because i bump into things all the time because i'm not in my body anytime somebody or the phone rings or somebody walks in the room I jump because I'm not in my body it's logical people that have been abused stay a bit out of their body because logically and this is the logic of the ego course in miracles' tells you the ego is logical but never rational there's a difference it has this logical progression wait if we don't show up we can't get us hurt and it makes total
sense if you've ever counseled people in a lot of pain in their history their childhood other lives you know I can understand why you're not wanting to be here it makes sense it makes you think egos making you think you won't get as hurt and it's not true because predators are far more attracted to people who are here but not here than they are to people who show up it's true the bullies in such of life they'll pick on people that are uncertain about themselves just a something-something when you show up
shared the story about half a year a year ago where something like eighth grade you know going to middle school and there were a couple bullies and you know they teasing messing with all the kids that were younger like me but there was a moment where I was wearing this cap or something and one of them came over and pulled it off my head and then they're playing around come on give it back you know like you see in the movie and they're tossing it to each other and I took a couple swings at one of these
guys didn't hit him but I swung he took it off and said here I was just kidding just the fact that I showed up they went oh crap this is a human who's here even though I'm not boasting or you know just taking a swing at people that you know look at you're wrong I'm just saying in that moment they went okay this guy's here let's leave him alone and find someone else they don't like when they see that there's something that might fight back why do you think a badger can fight off a bear that makes no sense why
do you think why can't you know Badgers are just crazy animals they're intense how can they defend off a bear because the Bears going you know you're not worth it just you're not worth it I mean the bear this isn't worth my time so access your inner badger when you need to access your inner badger just being able to say no no the mama bear and the mama energy that you know I see that you're big and bad and I seem like the woman and I've got my kids but guess what it's not an option that kind of
energy so we learned that hyper passive is more spiritual that is not true hyper passivity and being a doormat is actually not a rate a rating system of spirituality to be able to show up so it but to not show up with hate or hurt you know hurtfulness as an intention but just to be able to say hey know that I'm here not an option so that is finding our Center and it's not next necessarily an external thing as much as it's a vibe you hold and if one day you're not holding it someone's taking advantage in
a store charging you to buy and they're messing with you and they can feel that you're one of those they see you coming from a mile away the person that's going to overcharge you're a mess with you you show up you show your Center no no thanks the person that goes to a car lot knowing what they're gonna pay and not getting talked into anything more they're gonna try and people in this world are going to try things with you your job is to say guess who I am here's exactly what I'm willing to do
and not do will that work for you and it just confuses people that are used to messing with other human beings so living the Christ life it means you know plugging in and bringing that presence and it's an amazing thing because you're plugging in the highest voltage possible and people can tell there's a light burning in you and it burns brightly even if they're not capable of seeing energetic light they can feel it if you and I do not show up with that light it actually more our responsibility and
fault than it is the person who tries to take advantage we have to be able to show that light even if as children we were insecure eventually we have to show up for me that that day at school something shifted and when I saw they bat they backed off something in me went wow you know like wow that was interesting and from then on you know I didn't have conflicts and fights and things as a kid but from then on I just I the the best word I could give you as I felt invincible I felt immune like I just felt invincible it was the weirdest thing all
of a sudden I was walking around outside during class of course no walking around while other kids are in classes and I I just found myself feeling like I was just so alive and plugged in and I would go okay this isn't interesting in a classroom and I'd leave I'd go in another class and sit there you know it's sometimes the teachers are like are you in here well apparently apparently I mean I am here I sit there for I am so you know it's the weirdest thing because the human mind sometimes does the I as a
kid especially it's hard to even know what it is that's happening I feel like I could I could jump off a cliff and survive it's this is a consciousness that is beyond typical human consciousness this is I have a power I have food you know not of that kind of a statement those who can understand it they gotta go they won't be able to relate to you they want to understand your words that's why the Pharisees go to Jesus he's holding Christ consciousness and he says you're not going to understand my words
my words are coming from light and you live in darkness how you can understand what I'm saying imagine these profound minds of the time we are the elders he said yes that's one of your problems you locked yourself in - we elders know everything and you know nothing you memorized information but you know nothing if you truly knew you would feel and if you felt you would know it's this complete experience of wow this is yeah this is right this makes sense and you know we feel it in rooms like this but we also have it in moments
where we plug ourselves in in our own different ways channeling a poem or it could be a moment of parenting brilliance in parenting we all have what they call sometimes those Zen moments where we plug in all I'm saying is we can and will eventually learn to do that more often instead of guess what yeah I remember this happened to me about 25 years ago I had this really great moment of Epiphany I think that's great although I'm also saying that's supposed to be all the time it is it's supposed
to be all the time now what does it mean that you walk and go oh my god I'm like on a perpetual acid trip I'm seeing auras is that what Michael was talking about no I'm feeling really high like wow that's not what I was talking about I'm talking about plugging in experiencing it here and bringing it on every level what does living the Christ life look like I'm gonna share a quote or two one of them from Lao Tzu that I brought today but remember this when you're birthing the Christ you need a
couple of things to happen first of all if you're not in touch with the Divine Feminine you can't birth anything because it's a woman that gives birth even in a man it's a woman that gives birth to an idea or a project so that's what that means the Divine Feminine isn't an era you know an era on planet Earth where women rule or what it's people's heads talking it's in all of us you cannot birth the Christ of yourself without literally the Divine Mother but also the mother within yourself so
mother has to show up that means my sensitivity that means my level of compassion it's my heart it's also a state of surrender I am the handmaiden of the Lord that kind of a prayer Here I am God any wording you want to use it's an attitude of surrender is the basically the prayer of the Divine Feminine so here I am now I need one more thing so now she's opening up to that she starts to help me birth this Christ self from listening to this talk today you can go God just yesterday I was praying for some changes
in my life this is an answer and it's talking about call on the mother to help you birth that great so let's say you're all doing it right now there's gonna be something else you have to do mature it after it's been birthed how do I mature it living it how do you tone a muscle by working it how do i tone the christ experience in myself you have to live it how I'll get to that in just a sec so we want to bring this in every way possible so I'm starting generically by saying every way possible and then I'll give
details in a second in touch with the Divine Mother and then Revelation tells you something The Book of Revelation tells you something it's kind of like hey how are you doing today oh I'm doing great man I'm starting to birth this Christ thing really well let me tell you what that's gonna look like as you're practicing this birthing the Christ just one little part part of Revelation we'll start with here's what's gonna happen John who's birthing the Christ in the book of Revelation he's describing the
Christ being born in him he says and then I saw a woman pregnant ready to give birth and I noticed this terrible dragon came and waited for the birth so it could devour her child what do you think that's talking about you see you're trying to birth something new the dragon is waiting to devour your Christ child the ego yes it'll take the form of nagging relatives rude partners our former partners but also your own head I don't deserve I don't know if I can do this it's just any voice of doubt that
comes through anybody and you know but all the way to a practical level I mean you know you might have relatives that are fundamental Christians or they might be some other belief system or a complete atheist whatever saying to you oh come on what's this book you're reading about Christ consciousness I'm watching this lecture with you on Christ consciousness give me a break what's that even a Christian what's that what are you talking about it's all Jesus Jesus is telling us - it's this you know you got to put on the
mind of Christ one apostle says you have to wear that consciousness of Christ and they're acting like oh no no only Jesus so they're not really even listening to their own advice you and I have to say you know - those voices move aside it's not easy I mean I was doing this as a kid and it was not easy the taunting and the rude but you can be 50 and still be taunted by people but this is a test for you and I so the woman's giving birth and this dragons waiting to devour her new beliefs Christ consciousness but
then something cool happens an eagle comes and lifts her up to safety an eagle as in two wings as in your third eye chakra that has two petal Lotus as in the right and left pedal though two wings so when it says there this woman that's my human self giving birth to a Christ self then the Eagle comes down and lifts her up and brings her to safety that's the higher consciousness call on God to come down and help you lift and come out of into safety then it says so that's cool I'll just pray help me God so God you'll have this
moment of you know anxiety with people bugging you about your new beliefs and then you do some prayer and you might feel I feel I feel peaceful this is kind of beautiful revelation then tells you all that does is tick off dragon that now doesn't have the child to devour so it says then the dragon now wages war okay bummer I was kind of hoping this Eagle thing when it was done the ego does not give up just because you say I think I'm gonna start devoting towards Christ consciousness it doesn't say oh not that okay I might
as well pack up and go all it does is go you know you're starting to annoy me the ego evil devil any word you want to use for it there's a part of us that wants to remember who we are and a part of us that will do anything it can to prevent that from happening so our job is to you know cling to God and know you're fighting a fight that has no power against you that's not how it feels when it's happening but that's the truth so you have to remind yourself this has no ultimate power over me and
we will on a day-to-day basis I mean seriously our tower minute-to-minute be tempted to hear those other voices because they happen you know the phone company you know you pick up your phone your phone doesn't work cuz you didn't pay your bill that's a drag gets hard and then it's one of those companies that say well now if you want us to read hook you up you got to now pay a deposit what if I had money to do that I would have paid the phone bill they're not gonna say oh you must be the Christ at once oh it's
no problem let us put you on the Christ plan absolute communication with all beings anywhere everywhere for free they don't do that so it doesn't work that way but I have to say and please remember this you're going to go through your version of trials and tribulations opening up to the Christ Christ then also tells you you're going to be persecuted in for my namesake but hang in there but here's the key all the stuff that's happening that doesn't sound like a great sales pitch good I'm
gonna get on this Christ consciousness plan knowing that my life then goes to hell in a handbasket no no the truth is this stuff will happen because you and I believe in it it's not because it it like it's a powerful thing has to happen like it's a faint we're actually when we get in the center and and live this life stuff still comes up our job is to hold Center so we basically then dissipate it just like a dream fades over the day if I had a nightmare last night the energy of that fades over time how long do you want it
to take well you could obsess on a bad dream for weeks but here's something that happened just a few days ago I was shown this really weird vision but very very very visceral and very vivid and it was horrible things I would love to be able to take and then I saw this purple like no no this was really horrible stuff like some of the darkest stuff on the earth and I'm watching this I'm seeing the victims and the victimizers of some of the most horrible things and I'm like god this is just terrible to
watch the stuff that goes on in this planet and it's dictators and mass murderers and serial killers and all the worst of stuff on that planet and I'm seeing all this and then I wake up going Wow coming out of this it was wee hours kind of a vision and I come out of that going wow so vivid and so horrible then I remember take away there was something that happened at the end what was that after seeing all these vivid encounters and things and people and murders you know and the emotions of everybody the hate the fear all of it
I was shown at the end bless you I was shown at the end one other thing and it was like a nativity set where I was moving characters around in the nativity set the characters were the ones I was being shown and that starts telling me even all the worst of everything is still our own doing their images in our mind we still have the power over any of this we're not victims of the world we see so I was shown all this horror horror and yet it ended with their just chess pieces you know just pieces like a nativity and
I'm and I remember going okay that's three of you together over here and and it struck me as odd but I didn't get the message of it until I came out of and went wow what was that you're our Eagle wants us to focus on the horror and think I'm so distracted by the horror I can't think clearly and it's true you will not be able to think clearly while still reacting in fear but I caught on I said there's got to be more to this I would not have been left with this vision what else was there
wait moving the pieces got it so you have your bills but the bills are pieces on your chess board ultimately God / Christ is the only power that's all there is the rest is only what seems to be and you and I live all too often on that you know we love life thinking that it's being dished out for us what if we're not victims in any way what if not all and I don't just mean you're not a victim like a lecture like that or a speech or a phrase like that I mean what if it's true that nothing can happen by chance what
if it's true that everything has to be approved somewhere in our consciousness not all of us are going to go that's cool some of us are going to go oh no no no no no and that's what the ego wants it'll use frightening images of war and rape and so forth to make us go we have nothing to do with those creations then who did that was God no well no but it was other people there is no other if you want to wake up to God or Christ consciousness you can't actually do it while you're still talking about others they're
creepy parts of myself that's all they're just creepy parts of myself and those creepy parts are to be healed they're showing me lessons sure I might not have been the one that acted it out maybe you did the deed but we're all in this together you see we're all and they were all scared we're all feeling like we're living in a world alone and without direct guidance and so living in fear but here's what happens when you live in fear fearful things happen because you don't have the higher mind activate you
can't be afraid and in a state of love at the same time they are mutually exclusive states of mind so we need a moment to breathe and come back to something higher and this this concept of living the Christ life it's it's again it's not it's not abstract it's to be able to say I don't have to figure out what it looks like all I need to do is call upon the memory of God that does already know and let it guide me use my imagination and say God what would you have me do what would you have me do
what would you have me think and you then again our mind starts corrupting that going okay so that means I'm only gonna wear white and I'll talk always like with a whisper no you're actually using projections from movies you know what makes you think that you know Jesus spoke up yeah you know he did I mean he ticked off a lot of people he had that knock it off attitude sometimes he's telling apostles knock it off you know get behind me Satan like what a weird way to talk to friends you try it though
it's fun so you know it's he's able to say heat but he's not actually hating or projecting it onto them he's aware of what's going on he's thinking of it this is a we and there's a part of us that is inappropriate knock it off he might say it to you but he knows he's talking to all of us including himself he's talking the divine like Krishna talking to the human Arjuna so it's okay as long as you know what you're doing you can say knock it off to someone who's being
rude inside knowing I'm only speaking up cuz that's the only way you're here you'll hear me you're setting boundaries on people your own parents for that matter you might have to go hey mom listen we get in a lot of fights on the phone but I actually want to have nice conversations with you so if you'd like to meet me at that place where we can have good conversations here's what I'd like to do I'm gonna start just keeping our conversations to ten minutes because 20 they seem to go south 10 minutes if
it goes well I'll go to 12 and 14 and 15 minutes oops 50 let me back it up to 12 again and mom if at anytime I say mom listen we're starting to have an argument I don't really want to have conflict so because I love you so I'm gonna just take some space here and she's bye click she calls back up oh oh you're still yelling click you that's boundaries now if you do it because you're better than them you're missing something if you do it because you recognize I would actually like us to be in a better
state of being then you got it right making sense now remember that living the Christ life it's it's becoming our divine self so don't let the the term Christ get you call it the I am presence but I'm choosing to live my divinity what's that going to look like well first remember before you resurrect into new consciousness you have to be crucified oh that again and the woman its prevailing in a birth and then this thing comes to devour her child and all these creepy stories it doesn't have to
be horrible the only time a crucifixion of life is going to feel horrible which is like a dark night of the soul is when we're not aware of the things we need to say goodbye - so they say goodbye to us if we step in more and take responsibility it makes the process far easier it really does go with it go with it it's easier to have a tooth pulled if you go with it instead of no RF user to let you take it you know it's easier if you just it's far more effective to get a chiropractic adjustment if you just kind of you know
let them have oh no because they might then why are you saying sitting there if you're thinking they're gonna like kill you don't go see them it doesn't do you any good to go get a massage and stay tense they might rub that muscle too much you know and it might hurt me ask him to use a certain depth of massage but what if and what if and what if in that that that's not living so we all have a way to go okay you know what let go let God I've said this many times men you go to a chiropractor you let go
to let go if you don't trust them don't go let go in a relationship if it's not a healthy one don't be there but don't be there and tense so what's the worst thing that can happen the chiropractor he's gonna break your neck but at least you would have gone in a state of bliss and surrender I'm coming to see Lori trunk hey God how you doing in that great and God would say I'm amazed you trusted so perfectly you don't even have to incarnated anymore we had 10 lifetimes waiting for you you're done
jokingly and yet seriously that's what would happen trust let go intimately let go body work let go all the things of life what even if it's I'm taking a painting class but I'm inhibited just do something and let go because that's what takes us into our divinity more than calibrating and manipulating and controlling how much we're gonna do this and that you'll just you'll get far more effect with the letting go attitude so yes we're going to go through life's crucifixions but if you been mown the
crucifixion and I mean we go through many one's a week-long month long and sometimes years dark night of the soul but you can't birth into the light at the end of the tunnel if you don't go through the dark tunnel instead you found it you're just lighting a match thinking you know wow this is my light no no man look there's a brilliant light at the end but you got to go through the dark night to get to it crucifixion doesn't mean you're being punished or it's not just a fate of life
trying to you know out there to get you the dark night or the challenges of life are because we believe in things having power over us when you go through it it's only so we learn that they don't have power that we thought they had you see what I'm saying there it's actually us setting up those lessons so that we can get through to a higher consciousness so it's actually quite cool so here I am and I've got too much of this going on then start cutting things out clear out your desks throw
stuff away whatever it is get rid as and and the more for me the more I start raising things to the ground cutting things the more things are stuck the proverbial Alexander the Great you know one moment that that the world goes well this guy you know was was the you know he's special because there's a moment where the Gordian knot as it's called no nobody no wise man no master no King was able to solve this riddle how do you untie the Gordian knot so he's looking at because they said you know you're calling yourself Alexander
the Great people call us on go ahead and solve this mystery this is a test for you and he looks high and low and he's checking it out and then he just goes sword who cuts it in half there now it's untied and and it's funny because nobody had thought of that nobody thought of that you'd have to think outside the box that's when you and I access a part of us that's not our human self it's our mastery come up with a way to do a song that nobody else thought to do like the Beatles just let's do this and
everybody's like what was that you know like the Sergeant Pepper stuff just changing everything have this unique ability to parent differently or to paint even though you've never painted you have to think outside the box you think you were given called your human frame no no I'm not gonna buy this human frame thing I'm gonna I'm gonna just go into I'm a divine being so to become the Christ you have to die of the human self that's why all these mystics talk about dying of the old self one
apostle says I die daily they're just talking it not not the mortal tight not the fatalistic type it means you and I can choose to let go of our limited beliefs so don't make it all heavy and dramatic get that all it means is letting lay all the old belief systems oh my gosh I'm trying to parent but it's overwhelming I've never had a child before or I have two and my partner left so now my look all the human stuff wait wait wait we're gonna do this we've got to do this but there's an easier way and
that is plug in try to do it over yourself and you'll you'll pay for that because the more I do the more effort the more effort more tired I get so that's why it's so beautiful to call on the mother and say I don't know and when you say I don't know she says guess what happened when you said that you became me because the mother knows how to say I'm constantly being filled it's like the womb being filled with a child I'm the mother so I'm I'm always filled with love and light and life and peace and
joy that's the divine mother so be like me and say help me surrender become humble and I'll give you everything and that's how we begin to birth to Christ but again I said birthing the Christ is only half if we don't live it it's a still birth if we don't live it it dies prematurely and this world will try to pummel that that self and the voices of others the voices in our head so the last part of what we're talking about today it's we have to live the Christ how ask yourselves what does that look
like if you say to me birthing the Christ life means wearing only white you're mistaken if you say it means we have to only eat absolutely organic foods no we should only watch certain channels the Jesus channel or whatever on TV you know not at all you can you can you can choose Christ consciousness and you can dance around your house listening to Led Zeppelin or whatever and it wouldn't matter because what you're doing is I'm plugging in I'm plugging in I'm bringing God to what I do so Christ consciousness doesn't
actually prevent you from doing things it changes how you do them that's all I mean we all go through that I went through this okay Christ II gotta give this cry so no more this no more this no more I you know we go through that that's like the inner mystic that thinks abstaining from everything and it's it's you know like forget it of myself I can do nothing so when I try to abstain from this and do you know I went through that I mean doing things a certain way and and the the Essene lifestyle of
consciousness and simple foods and whatever it I've gone through all those things I have actually not said this and shared this for a long time but I got to share this one because you're going to be tempted you know you have to abstain from everything so did you guys know that I was celibate for like 15 years did you guys know that but when I turn 16 I said that's it enough is enough kidding so you're going to be tempted to abstain but when you do you're actually already confirming something's bad why do you have to
abstain from it if it's not being judged in some way so the opposite because some people did the opposite some Gnostic groups they did the opposite they just went we have to prove this world is an illusion some went and do nothing don't eat don't do anything others went if it's nothing let's do it all and they had the bacchanalian festivals and they everybody was doing each other and drinking and just totally stoned and just out of it this was in Sedona I couldn't resist that one but they're all
doing everything and that too I understand the intention it makes total sense rat-like logically speaking okay if it's an illusion they're proving it doesn't matter the opposite I'm gonna prove it doesn't matter no I don't want any of it but they're both still trying to what do something they're off because they're trying to do and prove so the ultimate would be to say what if instead of not doing anything what if you plug in so that whatever you do is brought light not abstaining so you can stay
holy what if you hold your holy and then you do then you realize oh my god now all of a sudden you're plugged into a state of consciousness that is loving it's compassionate non-judgmental and you're walking amongst anybody you could be in battle you could be in the military and in battle and still be choosing to hold a presence oh no there's no spiritual presence in battle really are you the one that's going to make that decision and say all soldiers are unholy people be the one that brings
the light well you can't bring light to all really now you're affirming something in this world is too dark he brought the presence of God do you really want to be that person affirming such a thing try instead to say there's no place there's no place that's completely unholy Shakespeare there's nothing truly good or evil it's man's thinking that makes it so so I want to make a difference I mean I did that in various ways in my life some ways that I would say we're challenging
for sure some ways that I would say almost every way I think I succeeded at taking this light to different you know places and groups but it wasn't always easy to take the hit from people when I do it you know you're a spiritual leader so you know if I chose let's say I did this once about eight years ago here in Sedona one of our people here was performing in a club or something in town of whatever bar or something they were performing they asked me if I would go see them so I chose to go see them
you know so to me I go to support them and I'm bringing that presence but it it's not easy when you see some people over in the corner going hmm mister I'm spiritual mr. spiritual leader at unity of Sedona we see what you really like having a rum and coke or something no it's just coke it's just Pepsi you know people's heads it's not easy but that's this the the dragon that's trying to devour the child and I all I can say is it wasn't easy and it isn't easy doing this work not just as a
spiritual leader any of us people are going to do their little target practice because you're making a difference you're doing something different the world doesn't believe you can do that and you must not just you can everybody will get to this place eventually but we get there the easy way or the hard way any part of you that that doesn't believe you can do this any part of you that doesn't believe it is going to find out the hard way you can do anything while in the light and mind of God a
quote from the Bible Galatians I have been crucified with Christ and it's no longer me that lives but Christ who lives in me the Apostles had moment of Epiphany and Christ consciousness it's really amazing more of that should be emphasized instead of when they're sounding like they're in a bad mood moments you know you just you can't you can't enter Christ consciousness while still limited in consciousness they're mutually exclusive you can't judge and be non-judgmental at the same time a story I've shared often
over my years is is the the famous DaVinci story so briefly stated there's a moment where da Vinci's painting the Last Supper and he's having some he with real life real time da Vinci was having some bickering with another artist in the region and so he has this clever idea to put that artists face on Judas I mean this is typical passive-aggressive behavior of an artist it wasn't it wasn't me I just oh do you think that looks like him hell yes come on dude no it was completely an accident come on he paints
this other person he doesn't like on Judas so he's thinking this is great everybody's seeing it they're gossiping around town you know guess who's the faces on Judas perfect perfect passive-aggressive behavior but then he's ready to paint Jesus's face and he could not get it and he's no now mind you as a as an artist when you know you want something musically or artistically and poem anything you can tell when it's not happening and it's frustrating and he can't get the face of Jesus so he
sits with that and realizes oh that that other face so he goes over washes out the face and paints a different face then Jesus came to him for the face of Jesus what that means for you and I stopped talking about how enlightened you want to be while still holding resentments literally the the quotient that the quantity the intensity of your ability to know God comes from not having anything else it's not you know God I want to know you instead of these morons in this world all these bad people they're so terrible let me know you and
God is literally saying to us every ounce of your getting to know me and my body or soul will come from your not having anything else let go of the guy's face you put on Judas let go of your image of whatever it happens to be let go of those and the other will actually emerge very organically a quote from Lao Tzu and this really sums up a lot of things be square but don't cut to be sharp but don't stab be straightforward but not unrestrained be bright but don't dazzle this means living the Christ life
it's not like you walk around going hi nice to meet you Michael Christ you know can you even see me cuz I glow you know oh you can see I'm surprised you can even see me with those dense eyes of yours you know this you know you're holding a presence that is beyond human comprehension including my own and I'm humble and give thanks for that's what I want to do is be humble and give thanks for it so all these the quotes I'm sharing these they're just concepts how do you apply the da Vinci thing how do you
apply the lao-tzu thing and so bringing this now towards our clothes day to day how do you live the Christ's life what does it mean what does what does living the Christ's life mean when it comes to romantic relations honest clear communication probably it would be affectionate some people you know have times they're not in the mood for that sort of thing but but to me being plugged into light means I glow that's what happens for me personally I mean when I when I finish a talk I just feel ignited you guys have all had that right
in some form love or the birth of a baby or whatever we we have these moments where we're just going wow that's how I feel most of the time so to me it feels like when I feel that I want to share that Jesus says don't you don't light up a light and then put it under a box it kind of doesn't make sense look at me not when when you feel plugged in and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you if you tend towards depression and you don't feel very bright that's okay hang out with other people who have that
light and learn and absorb it for yourself so what does it look like we ask yourselves what does it look like to be living the Christ what is living the Christ life look like in terms of diet food does it mean you know only only organic no it's how do I bring this light to the food's studies were done in the the famous book secret life of plants Tompkins was reporting all these studies about how how plants respond to our energy now you know of water drops responding to love and feelings right what if everything responds to our
consciousness and you go up and you're gonna eat some whatever Twinkie and you go oh I shouldn't eat this oh this will go straight to my hips oh this is terrible toxic food if it's true you better start deciding what you believe because you can't sometimes believe these things and sometimes not if things every cell molecule quantum particle responds to feeling you're already saying this thing is destructive I'm gonna have two of them it's it's dangerous but if it's true this law of
consciousness do you believe then now if I told you sweet story guys do you believe that when you're around children and you enter a state of love the children get it and then there's like this oneness and you everybody goes I totally believe that do you totally believe it do you really oh yes really then stay with me let's test it what if you've got about two Twinkies if particles respond to consciousness do you not believe you can turn those things to light oh no children yes Twinkies no see that's messed up you're
a hypocrite you either believe this or you don't and guys it's true you can change anything through consciousness you can eat garbage and not see it that way I'm not saying you should go out of your way to eat garbage but it's like change the way I see it what does what does Christ look like it's not changing what I eat it's how the state of mind bring love to all things you sit down and you start blessing your food because oh you know there's horrible stuff in it you just affirm there's horrible stuff
in it that you have to protect yourself from oh you know radiation within the you know um I'm gonna chant chant until the radiation I'm protected from the radiation if it's that bad don't eat it oh but I'm hungry you don't even have a body you just think you do you think you have a body and you think you have food that can make it sick you're you know delusional but there's therapy for that so try this God God be with me I don't know I don't know you know I think I I
still think I have a body I still think I'm hungry I'm still thinking that I'm not gonna be happy until I eat my happiness level is founded on food my I'm God God doesn't law I haven't had a solid today I'm really having a bad god day I'm part of God how could this be so helped me to feel plugged in here i am again the surrender / I don't feel plugged in but help me feel plugged in that's it all that you do feel off but then surrender it to something else ah and it changes everything the food
the attitude what is what is Christ consciousness think of sex and intimacy and things like that well you know there's their schools guys total celibacy and then there's total everything goes those two extremes that if I were looking at this I'd go I'm not interested in either extreme not not fearing either I can walk into that one like I said 15 years and then I can walk into this one not a problem I've been in around both Wow interesting having fun okay and let them be what am i get into I have to find what's right
for me so I say to myself what does it feel like to hold Christ consciousness in the category of intimacy and sexuality oh it would abstain really and why because that's lower nature real low so you you just determine something's bad how can I see it differently so that if I were Christ II could I do that yes could I not do that sure what's going to make that determination if it feels like I can experience a an expansion of feeling of Christ consciousness during that experience can we share love and that
doesn't mean all like let's own together you can have passionate fun intimacy and it still be Christ II it's all in here just like when you're having your meals it's all in the mind so what am i bringing I don't want the food particles to be afraid of me but I don't want my partner to be afraid lover or whatever you've got gay or straight Christ doesn't go clearly only this one the things that we project on even on to God / Christ are ridiculous and I've shared this many times people ask me
especially of many many years ago it started the question you know Michael do you think Jesus ever had sex do you think he was intimate and so on and people get into that like they need to know who it is like you know Wow so you know I messed with it a little bit play with them a little bit you know what do you think oh well you know and you get these different answers and opinions and I always just tell them look because you know this is churches that I'm speaking in sometimes more traditional kinds of
groups do you think Jesus could have would have you know and I say look let me summarize it and it's funny people they lean forward what's he gonna say you know Jesus hmm you know he had himself a good time or am I gonna say no way never what's he gonna say and they leaned for both groups are in the same building leaning for and I just go all I can tell you and I promise you this is that if he did have sex he was good at it so I left it as a nib if he'd be good at it I mean how is he gonna be terrible
you know somebody going you know Jesus he's like terrible in bed he's all like spiritual but has a lover oh how where was he at but but but really how could he not be present if he were it's all you're supposed to be doing is if if I'm Christ what would I do I'd be present I would want it to be loving see it's not what would Jesus or you - its Christ in my experience what would be the most Christ II kind of a thing love that's it so love is in the loving even if it's a passionate
intensely passionate experience love and anything else you'd do the foods the meals love how can I bring love to everything I'm doing parenting the workplace which isn't always easy jeez I mean I I feel good that I do a pretty good job living the Christ's life but it would be more challenging if you stuck me in a high-rise in New York City you know and just told me I had to like deal with this in subway home for three hours or whatever these people do adapt right that would be more challenging
fortunately I must have cleared that one you know so that Christ in me would say to me and my friends that's enough hateful gossip I don't mean you know saying hey you know did you see so-and-so yeah I saw them they were kind of down today that's not hateful gossip you're just talking about somebody asked you a question so getting into bickering getting into hateful good even the words Lao Tzu Buddha Jesus all these great teachers men and women throughout history have said this good thoughts good words good deeds with only slight
variations of those words good thoughts good words that means when you know that's me in and out me being any of us good thoughts good words good deeds Christ thoughts Christ words Christ deeds all the way down to what does Christ teach you about healing it's not your technique that makes you special your consciousness you don't compete with other healers I'm better than other he'll just show up show up bring holy presence healing arts the day-to-day stuff of the world does Christ watch TV
just like the sex you'd be good at it so what you do is if you do watch TV you're asking yourself if something comes on that triggers do my work if something comes on about global crisis how do I bring the light to that crisis you don't sit there going put getting pummeled from everything on the - oh that has power over me oh that has power over me ow it's how can I be a different presence you can be on a on a business board how do I bring this presence so recognize dealing with emotions you
don't say I stuff emotions because I'm Christ we don't have emotions no no how do you do emotions cry if you need to cry and then try to refill with light every tear that comes out I'm replacing it with something new a higher consciousness without judging the tear that came out I bring something in so no more of the games no more of the judgment living the Christ life don't just you can't just talk it and you can't even have it birth from the mother if you don't live it it's a stillbirth or whatever equivalent
and lastly you and I have to midwife each other's Christ's birth that is to say I have to be a good person you know you're struggling let me help you some people don't act like they want help so you have to remember that there's a very clear and vivid experience for mother Mary who who's really depicting what it's like to be the Divine Mother embodied hmm and what she does is she she hears angels all the people are telling you your birthing the Christ your son is the you know gonna be
the Christ as the Messiah etc so she's like wow as a person as a woman I get it I've had visions I've had you know verification and and support synchronicities that tell me this is real nice she's got it the Christ is being birthed in her too now but she still got tested you're not going to complete the cycle till you're tested and pass your test birth thing it is still kind of theory so when she sees Jesus crucified she's going through a dark night as a mother and as a Divine Feminine I believed in
this and it's dying what does the Christ do to watch loved ones die deflate and you know you're gonna feel that for a moment she's crying she's taking a big hit emotionally but she still had to believe even though he's dying even though they've beat him up my son whom I love I'm going to know that even though this is the way it looks there's something missing I can't see he is still the Christ I don't know how he's still the Christ doesn't look like the Christ right now he's beat up and dead
but I'm still gonna keep the faith that he's more than what he looks like you and I when we are birthing things in our lives you're your birthing in a relationship where you're going through struggles in your partnership or with your kids or your job one of the ultimate tests as the divine and Christ is one that's birthing the Christ is to hold the Immaculate image that that thing is okay even if you lost your job you're okay even if you lost your child there okay she had to hold what's called an
immaculate concept of Jesus even though he died you see what I just caught the wording I just used she had to hold she you and I has to hold an immaculate concept meaning despite what I see I'm gonna hold a vision you're still the Christ by doing that she attains Christ consciousness along with him so you and I you have this idea to write a book you hold an immaculate concept of the book you thought it was supposed to sell a million copies and they're all on pallets in your garage you have to hold that whatever that
thing the book was really about can't be touched or destroyed it's real and it's going it's working in its own way but I heard a voice and it said write that book it'll change your life and it did I thought it meant yeah well that's because you're human you thought it meant you'll be on Oprah and sell a million copies and God saying I wanted you to write it for you don't you feel different now I care about you not your sales if you also sell to great but your life is not contingent on that so
remember hold an immaculate concept hold a pure non-judgmental concept concept the imagined immaculate conception your Christ you have to in like Mary you have to hold an immaculate conception give birth to an immaculate conception Mary is Jesus what's your Immaculate Conception what did you give birth to and hold an immaculate concept of that creation forever whatever we failed are the things we're now forgiving not just what people did to us remember like last week I talked about what they didn't do
for us I have to learn to have an immaculate concept of every one of you you folks attend you watch I really like this guy but one out of every so many of you hate me and are annoyed by the things I said and I still have to hold an immaculate concept that you might not like me but you're still filled with love somewhere it's not always easy but that's our goal you can't be Christ without being Christ please take a few centering breaths breathe out the stuff of the body breathe out the tensions today just a
brief meditation I am as God created me and we just hold that in our consciousness I truly am as God created me really feel that really know that to be
true I am as God created me and allow thoughts and feelings to the contrary to percolate up if they do if they come up let them come up I am as God created me anything to the contrary Rises and just watch your response to it can you just affirm to it despite what you tell me despite what I think I see I actually am still as God created me unfazed by you whatever you are can you do that if you can good keep moving into it if you feel like you can't to certain things then let that one go it's okay but just record that in your mind as
something you might want to come back to later because you're finding areas that you can't accept your goodness I am as God created me this is my deserve ability it doesn't come from what I do on the earth trying to be a better person on earthly standards I'm a wonderful person because of what God created and that's not even the me that thinks of Who I am it's a light deep inside that I want to come out and shine more and more I no longer want a box layers and masks over my god-self I am and it in it fans that
flame from a spark I am I am as God created me and briefly just think from even today or this week are there any thoughts that I have had thoughts or beliefs that I have had that don't really resonate with what God would have me think or believe this isn't like shaming it making it sinful it's more like have I had thoughts that don't really sound like God thoughts and beliefs about myself or anyone else any limiting or judgmental thoughts or beliefs when you hear them or see them or
remember them just gently tell them God is the love with which I forgive you and let them pass and to all things that would tempt you to believe that you're less than a holy divine being which is just about everything in our day to day lives that's okay lots of stuff or few things still God is the love with which I forgive you gods the power with which I forgive you God is the mind with which I forgive you God is you reflect that which I am not so instead of reacting to that which I
am NOT and you are not I instead choose God that I am and that light shines so perfectly it can penetrate even the items that we try to hide under rocks but if the divine senses that we're trying to hold those rocks down and keep ourselves hidden due to naughty things and things were ashamed of want to hide it allows us to do that we only need to ask ourselves is that really where we want to go with this do I really want to stay hidden why the famous saying we are only as sick as our secrets so here I am
God Here I am father mother God Here I am shine your light through every particle of my being and despite my resistances guide my every thought word in deed and show me how to live the Christ life because it's Who I am and I choose no other identity softly and lightly world we'll do a tone but let's imagine what does it feel like what does it feel like to be in the Christ frequency imagine it and it's so what does it feel like to be in the Christ frequency what does it feel like in all aspects of my body if all my
cells were activated in pure light right now which they can be by our choosing to accept this the light of the mother shines upon us starts activating us and the cells of my body start to vibrate higher and higher in frequency they're starting to vibrate and the vibration is so high I can't see it or hear it yet but it's going to well up and start becoming a sound this is why Jesus says when the Christ is present even the rocks will sing even the most stubborn parts of myself start to sing and resonate hear that sound
feel that sound and just as a humming and gentle take a deep breath in what sound does it make [Music] don't worry about what sound don't compete compare good just keep going picture that sound reverberating out to everybody in the room and online there's a frequency picture it happening a chant a toning that's awakening everyone open your mouth slightly a little more sound [Music] picture that sound out to your cities
and it's a sound of love so it's bringing answers to prayers people are struggling somewhere on the planet and they hear this wave of snap picture it picture soldiers nurses in hospitals sick people accidents poverty challenge of every kind men women in all ages seniors that the fear the hurt the pain we sometimes have but picture wherever they are this sound comes envelops them and then picture they start joining us and a little more now [Laughter] [Music] every critter every tree everything and everything that it reaches starts
getting excited about singing with us [Music] [Laughter] [Music] gentle quiet and try to still feel and hear it even in silence beautiful gently come back into your bodies gently and remember don't leave that feeling that meditation that experience bring it with you integrate it into yourselves set a goal I'm gonna I'm gonna get out of this room without
losing this I will reach those doors and then I'll reach the end of the property and I'll reach to the supermarket take it with you as far as you can take it through the day the good news is if ever it fills I could stick disconnected it's impossible I only lost sight of it so come back and plug in again okay wherever you go God is alright thank you
