Steve Question #1

 

Dear Joshua,

If I'm eternal, and according to the law of expansion, I never go backwards, how is it possible I'm not further along in my spiritual journey? I feel like a kindergartner in the big picture, but at the same time I feel I have made major strides in this lifetime alone. If I was a 1/10 as good as learning in the last 1000 lives, I should be MUCH farther along, right? It just doesn't add up for me unless I didn't make much progress at all in the prior lifetimes. I would like to add that I believe that ultimately, we are "killing time" since we have nothing but time (as eternal souls) and we need to fill it up with something. That might also explain why we are not further along. There's no rush...

To complicate this question further, there is no time and all my prior and future lives are happening now. Could it be that in each of them I am where I am in this lifetime? Do all instances of "me" evolve together simultaneously, each in their own time period?

I know this question doesn't actually pertain to making this particular lifetime more or less enjoyable for me, but I would really like to glimpse just a little how this whole thing works...

Thanks!
Steve


Dear Steve,

What an interesting way to begin your journey to self-discovery with us. This is a question that speaks to how much you already know. You are one of the very, very few humans in your society to even grasp this concept and yet you feel like you should be much further along. How interesting!

The only way you could feel like there is so much more to learn is because you have already come so far. You are really at the leading edge of thought. We are not kidding when we say you are one of the few who know as much about reality as you do. You are on the leading edge of creation. You are pushing that envelope further and further. But isn't that what you like to do?

We picked you to be the first to complete our one-on-one teachings since you are truly a master. One of the things that identifies a true master is their ability to see that there is much more to learn. It is a feeling you will always have, so it's a good idea to get used to it. You will always feel there is much more to learn, you will always feel you're not getting it quickly enough, and you will always think that there are things we are keeping from you. But we are never keeping anything from you. It's simply that the difference between physical reality and nonphysical reality is difficult to explain in physical terms.

So, here's what we'll agree to do. We will create an environment where you may ask any question you like and we will simply explain it as best we can. Then, gradually, you will be led, step by step, to greater insight. You might not understand it completely, but you'll get a better sense of what is really going on.

Let's address the first statement that eternal souls are simply finding a way to fill time. That is not exactly true since we do not experience time the way you do. We simply be. That's it. We have thoughts and interests and passions and we can co-create in certain terms with you and others. Our beingness is all we need. We simply be and that's exhilarating to us. And we can move in and out of physical reality as we please.

You have a physical life which conceals most of what is really going on because it's so dynamic and captivating. That's why we ask you to meditate. We want you to realize there is more going on on the inside than you think. This is where your reality is generated. So, as you get in touch with the inner world and your inner self, you'll literally operate in the physical world at a very high level of beingness.

We, in the nonphysical realm have no needs but we do have desire. You in the physical world are the same. You really don't have any needs, but you do have desires. We say you don't have any needs because you are taken care of by the universe. Your feeling of need is an illusion based in fear. You live in the physical world just as we live in the nonphysical realm. We are taken care of by the universe and so are you. The only difference is that you can feel fear and we cannot.

In this one-on-one approach, we will attempt to guide you, over time, to becoming the higher version of you. You can be led to a higher vibration. This is really the goal of all humans. They reach for a slightly higher version of themselves and they either allow it or they do not. If they allow it, their life experience is enhanced. If they hold themselves apart from that which they strive to be, they feel pain, inner conflict, and stress.

We chose you for this experiment because we believe that you will allow the transformation that may take place in this co-creative endeavor. You know enough already. You have reached a vibrational resonance with us. You have been following your path which has led you here. This will be fun. There's nothing to worry about and there's no work you will have to do. Simply meditate and focus your mind on the words of Abraham. Abraham has brought you this far, now we will take you to the next level.

You are loved and appreciated more than you can ever know.

Love,
Joshua
