The  Greatest  Message  To  Be  Offered  On  Earth





from


Sometimes  Distressed — Yet  Always Divine


Alan Hammond

 


“Be still, and know that I am God.” This statement and awareness appeared through the speaker of these words in a Psalm, and has also appeared through the ages in the human consciousness of other people. We see recorded in the Bible various people who became aware of their Identity—of Being, I Am—most notably, Jesus. And after biblical times, others have also come to know their true Identity.


There is one vast Power that animates everything. We know that power as Life. This power animates all forms, including those of human beings. So it is obvious that the true Identity expressing through human forms is Life, Being, known to each of us personally as who I Am. A more vivid and conscious awareness of this Identity emerges accurately in consciousness when there is a clear expression of the true nature of Life. That nature may be described, in essence, as Love, Truth and Life. We know from experience that this is who we are. We love to love. We are Truth—we love to do the right thing. And we are Life—we love to create.


Ultimately there is only one expresser in the Cosmos—Life. There is only one observer—Life. There is only one that experiences—and that is Life. This is the true universal Identity we have called the Cosmic I Am. We, and everyone else and everything else, are differentiations of this one Identity, this One who experiences and observes and expresses. Coming onto the earthly scene that is currently racked with problems, discomforts, dis-ease—despite the frantic efforts by distorted human beings to seek other remedies—there is only one solution to all the myriad problems. That is the clear expression of true Identity through human beings.


The expression of this true Identity and Character on Earth would resolve all the problems of personal relationship, all social, racial, international, health and ecological problems. The expression of this Character satisfies the deepest longing of every human heart, and satisfies their highest aspirations. Without the expression of this true Identity, the human world is in a hopeless state. True spiritual expression is the only hope for the survival of mankind. The only thing that has allowed human beings to survive this long is the spiritual expression through enough people to this point.


Throughout human history there have been so-called revolutions, which were supposed to change everything. But they have come and gone and there has been no real revolution, because human nature has merely been replaced with more human nature in charge. The only worthwhile revolution would be the reappearance of Divine Identity through human beings. Now it should be obvious that our message regarding true Identity is the greatest message to be offered on Earth for millennia, and we are commissioned to bear it. Can our minds really appreciate this fact? I know, personally, my own mind was very skeptical for a long while. However, over the decades the evidence of the truth of this, has accumulated. And I think you’ll find that in the various fields of human endeavor, all valid research is moving human consciousness toward the awareness of the oneness of Life and of our Self-conscious Identity in the Whole.


Individuals have unique forms and consciousnesses but they are also part of collective bodies. For example, each of us is also part of the body and mind of mankind. We are also part of the body and consciousness of the planet. This we have called the Archangelic Body. And moving through the gradation of the astronomical forms, we are ultimately part of the Cosmic Body and Mind.


Each cell in the human body carries the DNA of the whole body, and so too does each individual carry the spiritual and outer essences of the whole Archangelic Body. This fact is the basis for our holographic experiences. Thus, the global problems and stresses of the whole Archangelic Body can be reflected in our personal experience, but we tend to give them local causes. In reverse, we can easily see many of our personal stresses magnified in the larger body of mankind all around us.


Our holographic nature and context allows us to extend creative influence into the Whole through our action where we are locally. Because of this holographic nature, we can empathize with anyone’s experience. We can relate to it and help move it in a creative direction. This is true intercession. We can see then that we experience a wide range of human feelings—feelings that are physical, mental and emotional. Many people think that they are weak or wicked when some of these feelings come to them. But our job is to deal with such experiences by expressing the Tone, the true Character of Being, and to never forget who we truly are.


Our physical forms and our consciousnesses are instruments able to monitor what is transpiring locally and in the larger body, and also instruments of radiation into the body of mankind and into the larger planet. So this range of feelings we have, which are often uncomfortable, are very useful. They are essential, in fact, if we are to be of any use on Earth. Of what use would we be if we could not discern what was transpiring in the Body? And of what use would we be if we were unable to extend a creative influence?





There are some false concepts and imaginations about what a divine experience would be on Earth. For example, sometimes it is imagined that someone divine would have lateral, cosmic vision, where they would somehow be able to encompass all the details of the Cosmos in their head. The human mind is not designed for such function. Often it is imagined that a divine person would not experience uncomfortable feelings. We know that pain can be experienced at all levels because we are part of the human condition, in body and in consciousness. We are embedded in the mass consciousness, so we too can experience what might be described as “cloud cover.” And sometimes, from the divine standpoint, it is a wonderful achievement just to maintain the expression of the Tone in a moment. In essence, the expression of the character of I Am in the moment is the expression of the Cosmic I Am—as known in this unique location in the Cosmos.


Many within the sound of my voice were once part of a very close, collective spiritual process of teaching, counseling, correction, etc. No doubt all of us in our own paths have had a version of this kind of spiritual training. Now, however, we find ourselves virtually alone with the personal responsibility to purify our own hearts—or, to put it another way, to grow up—and work with our human minds and hearts so that they do not encumber the expression of who I Am. It is important that we have self-awareness. If we have true Self-awareness, we also have accurate awareness with respect to the condition of our outer psyches. We then avoid self-delusion.


Actual behavioral changes are needed, not just the accumulation or rehearsal of so-called spiritual vision. Human beings tend to overestimate the power of external talents, and underestimate the power of spiritual expression. Of course we need some abilities. We also need some finer substance to discern the effects of spiritual expression, because Spirit works differently in our worlds than merely the expression of outer talents. Usually human beings assess success by the achievement of self-centered goals.


The human ego often says, “My talents, my abilities are not appreciated.” Well the first question we should ask is, are they actually worth being appreciated? Or, the ego may say, “No one appreciates or sees my wonderful service.” Well, how wonderful is it, really? We should all be a little skeptical as to how magnificent and widespread the influence of our service is. Others may think to themselves, “What great sacrifices I have made to serve.” I can assure you that such thinking indicates there is very little service being rendered. In reality, there is no sacrifice by an Angel, no sacrifice to express one’s true Self, and no reward is needed. We do everything we do because this is who we are. We would not sacrifice this. Everything we do in the outer sense is secondary, and thus is not a sacrifice.


In one sense, in this consideration we could think that addressing our human nature is pretty low-level spiritual work. But since we are a part of the human body and consciousness, and since, if we are honest, we know very well that at times we partake in shades of expression other than the divine, we see that this is where the re-creative cycle on Earth is. And so we are delighted to focus on adjustments within ourselves as necessary.


I think most people on Earth would think that they are not an important person in the collective body of mankind, and not destined to serve very significantly. But each of us is responsible for clear spiritual expression—the release of creative energy. Thus, do any of us have any physical challenges—illness, perhaps? Do any of us have any mental challenges? Do we have any problems in our lives? Do we have some emotional challenges? Do we have fears that arise, or feelings of disappointment? Times when we find ourselves being critical of others? Yes, we have many of these experiences. But we are also conscious in the holographic Body, and are therefore potentially among the most significant people in the Body. I’ll repeat that—among the most significant people in the Body. Is that hard to believe? Think about it.


We are invited to help provide Self-conscious spiritual expression in the Archangelic, holographic Body on Earth. I would suggest this is a very important role, if it is done. It is surely more significant than leadership in any field of human activity, be it government, creating inventions, or what have you. If we awaken holographically to who I Am, we realize that “If I don’t take responsibility for spiritual expression in this situation in the Design, who will? There is no one else to consciously act except who I Am.”


There have been stars in the history of the holographic Body—people like Jesus, Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius, and many others. Do we think of ourselves as nobodies? We are an aspect of I Am. We are of the same Identity as those stars, the same Spirit. We have the same challenges, the same job, the same adventure in this evolving world. It is possible for us to holographically identify and move with all parts of Being—the Cosmic I Am. To our outer consciousness, this unification with the Whole, the Cosmic I Am, feels like letting go, letting the one current of Life move all around—and through oneself specifically in the expression of its true Character. We can then let the Whole achieve what is to be achieved where I Am.





What a priceless privilege we know!


How wonderful it is to realize we have plenty of divine work on our personal plates. All those feelings that we have possibly taken too personally—my physical pains, my mental pains, my emotional pains, or thinking, “Oh, how weak and wicked I am”—no, that is not who we are. We are the beautiful expression of Love, of Truth, of Life. We really have known this about ourselves all our lives. The challenge has been to actually express it through these hearts and minds that have been distorted. We do not identify with these distortions. We are here in these scenes, these unique parts of the design in which we individually find ourselves, to reveal true spiritual action at this time on Earth. It may not look glorious to anybody. But we know that it is the very core of what is required in the Body of mankind now.


So we are not only content; we rejoice to be conscious enough to express Spirit to the best of our abilities through the forms available to us. We do it individually and we also do it with millions of other people. Many of them are possibly less conscious than we are, and yet the Spirit moving in them is seeking to express integrity, true Character. We are one with them. We are also one with those who haven’t a clue and are completely unconscious of who they really are, living as best they may in a darkened state.


Thank you all for being You, and for serving where you are in the Design.

      The  Lord's  Day


        I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day

        Present in His heaven, present in substance available but yet unformed

        And behold, a creative field emerged with Him

        Charged with sustained agreement. Intimate with purpose.


        And lo, beneath me, I heard sparkling waters

        Appearing through the earth of my repentant soul.

        And we said, “Let there be a fountain of forgiveness

        That all may be cleansed.”


        And lo, behind me, I sensed a fragrant wind

        Bearing a sweet scent, like a fresh morn

        And we said, “Let there be rarefied air

        Newly summoned within a purified soul.


                           

        



        And lo, beside me, I saw shifting fields

        Conforming and reshaping in accordance with lines of dominion.

        And we said, “Let the earth bring forth levels of design

        That this fruit might bear witness.”


        And lo, before me, I knew an ignited world

        Charged with love. Intimate with purpose.

        And we said, “Let this radiance go forth To accomplish our will.”


        And we rested, assured and thankful,

        That this compulsion would not return unto us void.

Approach  to  Archangelic  Sexuality





Alan Hammond




In our life experience we all know what it’s like to be faced with an endless series of challenges. In the fallen state in which we find ourselves these challenges are not always pleasant. The list of themes is endless and can involve such things as relationships, finances, health, career. Often when we are experiencing such challenges we may wonder, “Is there something wrong with me?” Of course maybe there is, and we should certainly examine the quality of our function in that field. But if it’s any consolation, we realize that no one has ever escaped facing unpleasant challenges. If we examine literature about the so-called holy ones of the past, all certainly faced uncomfortable situations. In our Western culture we only have to think of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, for example. Perhaps sometimes we think, “Nobody knows the troubles I’ve seen.” Of course our personal troubles are, in one sense, unique. But we certainly know that everybody has had variations of them, and will continue to have them.


Sometimes people think, “This particular situation with which I am struggling is preventing my light from shining forth.” There are various forms of challenges. Sometimes we have critics—people who appear to be the banes in our lives—but critics are potentially our greatest allies. Such irritants often point to our weaknesses or to distortions in our expression (which, of course, we are very keen to become aware of and to do something about, so that our expression may be as clear as possible!). Sometimes tragedies appear in people’s lives. We often hear accounts of them through the media. Recently in this area there were two teenagers who, in a road accident, lost both their legs. Six months later they have been fitted with artificial limbs and are now speaking in public, raising funds and inspiring many who are afflicted in similar ways. Such people turn tragedy into triumph because of the spirit they express in the midst of their situation. Very often these tragedies, when met in a creative spirit, can actually give a wonderful focus of meaning to a person’s life and a luster that wouldn’t be there if this so-called tragedy had not occurred.


Bringing this to our personal lives now, I’d like you to think about one of the most distressing challenges you are facing today. I would suggest that this could be a doorway into an experience of your greater Self, and eventually a greater experience of life. There is an interesting principle that involves thrust—the principle of the jet. As we know, the firing of jets utilizes pressure to push in one direction, which moves the object in the opposite direction. Tragedy coming from the earth, the environment, can thrust us into the experience of triumph—heavenward. So when we begin to feel a challenge from the earth, our circumstances, let us immediately thrust into a consciousness of Identity, and know for certain that new vistas lie ahead—if we handle the situation in true Identity. It is always, without exception, Life’s intention to be creative in Its movement. It is always our mistranslation of situations that causes our misery and, often, wrong function. Life, Spirit, is always urging our outer consciousness to move in the creative direction. There is only one power moving everything in Being, and it is seeking to move everything in the right direction. All things are always working together to perfection for those who love and serve the Whole. As we blend with this awareness, we know we can never be defeated. In fact the word defeat is only a concept in human consciousness. No such experience exists in the Truth of Being.





When dealing with challenges, it is best not to give all our attention to the problem itself, but to proceed to Identity with right Spirit; and, in the expression of that, next steps emerge in the current. In navigating challenges, we can feel free to utilize anything available in the Archangelic Body. Some people say, “I would never use drugs; I never drink this or that; I would never go there,” and similar fixed views. Well, don’t handcuff yourself. Be open to the Spirit that will utilize anything and everything in the fulfillment of Its purposes.


It is crucial to keep the true Tone in every moment. This generates fine substance. By expressing the Tone moment by moment, we are dealing with our own subconscious patterns and those within the Archangelic Body, so achievement is being accomplished even though our minds may be unaware of what is being accomplished.


One area in human experience that gives rise to much lamentation is the area of sexuality. There is a great deal of unhappiness related to this field, often very intense unhappiness. This is partly because sexuality is the most intense focus of a human being’s creative ability. Again, if it is any consolation, no one exists who does not experience severe challenges in this field. The experience is messed up for everyone. I say this very confidently, because even the best experiences of human sexuality are poor from the divine perspective. Human standards are so miserably low! In any case, the body of mankind is one, and while any are bound, none are free to experience the Truth in this, or in any other aspect of living.


Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis in the Western world, suggested that many difficulties in life arise from distorted sexual function. As we shall see, Freud’s view is very limited, as is most human awareness of the subject. Freud said that sexual urges that were expressed in many socially acceptable forms were, in his terms, sublimation. However, in fact all creative activity is sexual in the true sense. All creative activity is differentiated sexuality. True enough, in human experience sexual function does come to focus in what you might call genital sex—in procreation, for example. But sex is much more than genital sex. It can take the form of thought, conversation, collaboration, in myriad forms with anyone, or indeed with anything. Everything that is created is created utilizing the sex principle. Things are created by reason of the relationships of many, many forms in the current of Life. In the human world it is this sexual process that has created all inventions, created all art—indeed the production of anything involves relationship, and the sexual principle.


If you look up the word commerce in the dictionary, you will see that one of the definitions relates to sexual activity. Most people in business might be surprised at that. Just taking the example of commerce, we see that in its conduct there is communion, interchange, service. These elements of relationship are also involved in politics, healing, art, sport, and even farming. You might say, “Well, I don’t know how farming fits!” But all these fields need collaboration and interchange, with respect and love, to produce the most beautiful and effective results. Respect and love are the basis for all relationship in Being. If this Spirit is present in interchanges, then beautiful forms are born.





Of course the spirit currently moving through man is largely distorted. Man should be engaged in and focus a tremendous range of multidimensional sexual activity. However, in his current experience of a false identity and false expression, his range of conscious experience of sexuality is virtually nothing. So he is relatively barren, and what he does give birth to is invariably distorted. His habits of wrong identity, mistranslation of currents and therefore wrong function, has given birth to forms of hell on Earth. Because of the isolated human identity and consciousness held, his consciousness of sexuality is myopic and basically reduced to genital, physical sex.


We have begun to consider blending with the Archangelic Identity and experience. The Archangelic experience of sexuality involves all the relationships transpiring on Earth. Consider the range of relationship—the qualities, the textures, the forms of relationship present on Earth, which is therefore part of the Archangelic sexual experience. Archangelic sexuality has more to do with radiation than with physical contact. Remember, radiation is not intangible. It is a vibratory level of substance. Perhaps the easiest example of this for us to consider is the radiation from the Sun. The energetic interaction between the Sun and the Earth—the Archangelic Body, gives birth to myriad forms on Earth. As a planet, and as a creative, sexual partner of the Sun, the Earth plays the feminine role and produces the forms resulting from their intercourse—all the forms on the surface of the planet. The human experience in this process is part of the Archangelic experience, or should be—whereby in the human consciousness and experience there is translation of the currents from the undimensional levels of Being. These relate to the Archangelic Identity, and there are also the currents from the Sun. This blended intercourse should give rise to forms in our momentary living and acting. Remember, radiation is not intangible. Radiation is a denser substance than mental and physical substance and molds them, creates in them.


In exchanges between all physical forms, the primary, most powerful element of the interchange is in the radiation—you might say in the spirit—rather than the physical contact. Energy is the primary mover. This is true between animals. It is true in the growth of plants. And even between human beings, the primary, most potent level of interchange is spirit or energy, not physical substance—although physical substance in all these forms eventually has some part to play. But it isn’t the primary, it isn’t the most intense, level of intercourse.


We might say that each morning we are aroused by the Sun. It is part of the planetary sexual encounter. All this is designed for the creation and the experience of heaven on Earth, and for the creation of forms to clothe that experience. Every situation in which we find ourselves is part of the communion, intercourse, and interchange with the Cosmic Beloved. What a vast, yet minute range of textures and qualities of forms of experience can emerge out of the Truth of Love! And all this is available to us as we return to our true Identity as an aspect of the Beloved.





I’d like to highlight something someone said about being an older woman. In the world as it now is, most women feel particularly vulnerable about their sexuality as they get older. But we can see that in fact, as all of us get older, as we embody the true Spirit, the true current of respect and love, our multidimensional sexuality is not diminished at all. No doubt the focus of our expression is, in later years, in the denser, more potent substance of radiation—it is intensified. This potency is ours to contribute into the Archangelic Body, moment by moment. If we can begin to let our outer consciousness accommodate the true nature of sexuality (that is, expressing the creative Spirit in all we do), we will find our lives rich in every moment, occupied with the processes of intercourse in Being, with the currents moving therein. And we may fulfill in our lives a very significant and important contribution to the restoration of awareness and experience of true sexuality here on Earth.
