Understanding the fundamental principles of living a Happy and Successful Life.
Principle NO 1.
- Everything exist only as states of Consciousness or Awareness.
Principle NO 2.
- This world is composed of material matter or what is known as flesh and blood. That which is appearing as material matter is nothing more than an effect. Effects are not Cause therefore have no Power with which to change in or of itself. In this world there is always the appearance of 2 Powers one Good and one Evil. Also known as “ The Knowledge of Good and Evil”
Principle NO 3.
- No one ever has to do anything to live in the flesh and reap the harvest of living in the flesh and experience all of it ups and downs .
Principle NO 4.
- This world is composed of flesh and blood meaning that everything is of a material nature. We as humans are subject to the laws that govern this world of material matter. In this world our reality is matter and material force. This is what we Love and Fear the most. We Love matter most in the form of money, investments, property, fast cars, jewelry etc. We Fear matter in the form of germs, weapons, poisons, government, etc. Matter is also something that we use in the form of material force such as water and electricity. We can use material force for constructive and destructive purposes either to build or to kill. Most of our lives are spent loving, hating and fearing all this material matter.
Principle NO 5.
- There is another type of Consciousness that is also Known as Spiritual Consciousness or Awareness. At this level of consciousness we neither love nor hate material matter. In our human experience we need them and we use them but we do not love or hate them. All of these things have legitimate functions in our lives. We have every right to have them in abundance and to use them for legitimate purposes but not to Love or Hate them.
There appears to be so much confusion in this world that it sometimes appears or feels like it is impossible to every achieve anything that we would like to. Our lives are so busy just trying to survive or make ends meet that we don’t have time to even try and develop any type of Spiritual Awareness. Every individual has his/her own has their reasons or excuses. Either it is just too hard to understand or they don’t have time for such nonsense the list could go on and on.
In this world success is judged by how much money one has or their level of education.
Very few are born into great wealth some are but either way does not guarantee that individual will be truly happy or content with their lives as they appear to be.
Look at Howard Hughes, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Christina Onassis, just to name a few they had it all as for as the wealth, prestige, they had more money than they could ever use. But they all died miserable. They all had what this world sees as being successful but without the ONE main ingredient that makes living Life worth while. They all lacked Peace of Mind, Happiness, Joy and feeling loved.
They lived their lives in from the material matter consciousness level the flesh and blood level without ever knowing there is Higher Level of Consciousness that transcends this world of material matter.
The fact is more than 90% of the world’s population lives at the material matter – flesh and blood level of conscious awareness.
When we look back into history and we see that Consciousness exist at different levels of awareness. There are basically 4 levels of consciousness.
- Material Consciousness- the survival of the fittest. To the victory goes the spoils. The me verse me mode of living. What is mine is mine and what is yours is mine also. The more I have the more I can get. Raw Brute Force. We see this in all the time in the animal Kingdom. Animals have to no sense of right or wrong. They just do what they do to survive.
- Mental Consciousness- the mental level is about planning and cunning. Without offering as much physical brute force. It is just a little higher than the animal-material. Sometimes the plans seem to work and sometimes they don’t.
- Soul Consciousness- is the Christ Level of awareness where the individual awakens to the knowledge that there has to be more to living than just survival of the fittest. There is the recognition that there Something or Someone who is in Charge of governing and maintaining all appearances.
- Spiritual Consciousness- is God Consciousness- God awareness which knows itself as the The Infinite Source, The Eternal Cause, The Creator. This level of consciousness knows itself as Being All there is that nothing can exist outside of it.
Where each of us are now determines how we express and experience LIFE. To reach the 4th level of Consciousness is Not something any of us can just Say what we have or know. It is rather something that takes place from within at the Soul level. This is not to say that we are not to work towards achieving this level of consciousness. This then brings up the question.
HOW DO WE DEVELOP OR REACH THE 4TH LEVEL OF CONSIOUSNESS?
The answer is always the same for everyone. Study to Show Thyself approved a workman that needeth not be ashamed.
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
No one has to do anything to when it comes to the First 2 levels of Consciousness. Because they are both part of This World Systems. It is the 3rd and 4th levels that we as humans must work to develop. Just like if you want to develop the physical muscles you have to workout. If you seek to develop specific skills of any kind then we must work to learn them. In this world the 3rd and 4th levels of Consciousness are not automatic. We must work to develop these levels of Conscious Awareness.
So now the question is:
- HOW much do we desire to Learn what it means to Live a Successful Happy Life?. One that is Filled with Plenty of Peace, Joy, Fulfillment?
- Are we committed to do whatever it takes?
We say yes I am ready:
- Where do I start?
- What do I need to do to develop this Higher Level of Consciousness?
We start with the written word. We saturate our minds with what has been written and recorded thought out the pages of history. For every problem know to man there is a written scripture. This is HOW we Develop our Spiritual Muscles Our Spiritual Consciousness. There is NOT another Way. Just as we cannot develop our physical muscle without exercise. We cannot Develop our Spiritual Awareness without exercise. The exercise it not physical like running or using exercise equipment. IT is developing the Mind to new level of awareness. A completely different way of thinking and feeling of how we see the world in which we now live.
Luke 4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
Since we do not know exactly what the Word of God really is. We study the written word and affirm that which is written as being the principles by which we live. This then becomes our way of LIFE and this being so. That Which is the Word of God is made known to us. HOW we do not know. We only KNOW that it is.
We Do Not work to Make create that which is THE TRUTH. Our works is to KNOW THE TRUTH so that we are no longer bound any of the appearance of this world.
John 16:13 Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and He will shew you things to come.
1John 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
The letter of the law or the written word is NOT The Truth. It is however what we must first use as our guide that allows the Spirit of Truth to come forth in our lives. The Truth that is not born after the arm of the flesh. But is Born of God because it is THE WORD of GOD that is GOD. When We hear the Word of God that is spoken in our Hearts -Our Soul Consciousness we are set free of the sorrows and woes of this world with all its ups and downs. NO longer are we tossed to and fro with every wind and doctrine that. No longer are we double minded believing that our life is governed and controlled by the things of this world nor the appearances of this world.
Eph 5:9 For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and Truth;)
Jam 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
Double minded means: wavering, uncertain, doubting, divided in interest
Righteousness means Right Minded.
Insanity means that we keep doing the same thing over and over and expect to have something different appear in our lives.
First let us understand that we do not study the written word in order to change this world. Nor are we seeking to try and influence God to Work on our behalf to change things. This may sound strange at first. But the fact is we study the written word in order that God can Speak to us. We study so that we can learn HOW to Hear The Word of God that is spoken in our hearts. It is not about Changing God because God is the Same yesterday, Today and Forever.
Malachi 3:6 For I AM the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Lord means: self existing- the all that is. God means: Cause, Intelligence, Activity Christ means: Individualized Expression of God.
1John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Who is this He that we will Know – that we will see Him as He IS? If not God the Father of us all – then who? If not seeing ourselves as the Divine Image, Divine Likeness, Divine Expression of the Living God then who or what?
Rom 8:9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
2 Chronicles 32:8 With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles.
1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
This world is composed of material matter or what is known as flesh and blood.
There is a misunderstanding of what it means to be an Israelite. Just because one is born a Jew does not make him/her and Israelite. While is it so that being an Israelite means to be Born of God the Chosen one. Being an Israelite is when we are quite literally born again according to the promise. However being born means being Born Again as The Christ of Gods Presence. It is not physical flesh and blood. But is Soul Consciousness- that Leads us to Spiritual Consciousness.
Having Spiritual Consciousness it never about any specific religion, race, nation or country. It is about Creation itself. IT IS about GOD knowing Himself in us appearing as us. So that our lives are no longer controlled by the appearances of flesh and blood or material matter. But rather By the Presence and Power of the Lord God which Jesus called Our Father, My Father.
Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom ofGod is within you.
The Kingdom of God is not something external to our Being but is in fact our very LIFE, Our Breath, Our Consciousness of Being. This is True now and always has been there is nothing we can ever do that can or will change this. However there is a difference in knowing about God and actually Knowing God.
Most people live their lives only knowing about GOD. Without ever coming face to face with GOD. Our Source the substance and cause or our Being.
While it is so that GOD is Universal. Meaning ALL there is. It is also true that God has made Himself to be Individualized in us appearing as us. So that we are taught of God and by God without interference from any outward appearance. Which by the way is the first Scripture in all sacred writing “ In the Beginning GOD and GOD Said “ let there be” Whatever GOD called forth into existence came forth.
This is what everyone is searching for even when not knowing it is. There is Nothing any greater, nothing more fulfilling than Living in Full Conscious Awareness of the Presence of GOD. NOT in this world or any other world to come.
This is known as Finding the Kingdom of Heaven or God within.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Since righteousness means Right Minded what we are Seeking is the MIND OF GOD that never makes mistakes and knows all things from beginning to the end.
It does not take a genius or a scholar to see that we as a people have not found that yet. We still only have a belief in God but not the Knowledge OF God. Believing and knowing are not exactly the same thing. When we actually KNOW something we know it because we have experienced it. We have and understanding of what it is we are KNOWING.
Again in this world no one has to do anything to know the ups and downs or the struggles, sorrows and woes. Everyone knows these things from experience. But the Things of God is something we have learn how to KNOW. It is something we have to work to attain. Not work like physical labor, going to school or college to earn a degree of any kind not there is anything wrong with doing these things — Spiritual Consciousness is about Transforming our Minds so that we are NOT conformed to the things of this world.
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed bythe renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
To be transformed means to be Changed
Where as Conformed means to accept things as they now appear to be without question.
There is no one that can prove this for another individual.
However it only takes One Who’s Mind IS Transformed to be a Light unto others. We can know this from the Life and Times of Jesus Christ and the message that he gave the world some 2000 years ago in a very short 3 year ministry.
There were others before him they were known as prophets, sages, gurus or Buddha’s
In the early stages of our spiritual transformation we are to study the scriptures which is the milk of the word that spoon feeds us. Only there will come a time when we are receiving instructions not by what we have read or studied or that someone else has taught us. But direct from the Spirit of God that is in us.
1Peter 2:2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby:
Jesus said: John 16:12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear (hear) them now.
2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Christ: The Spirit, The Presence of GOD IN YOU.
Imaginations are the images we hold in our minds whether good or bad. Images of being poor of being sick of being, of being unworthy, any image that we hold onto other than the Christ of God’s Presence that is in us - is an abomination unto God.
Holding fast to The Christ Image always FEELS Good - Because The Christ is the Light of GODS Perfection. That which is Perfect does NOT know sin by any name.
