In this day and age it seems the message of these folks has been lost or ignored. Remember these people came as TEACHERS. Teachers guide and educate, so those that submit themselves as students can utilize the knowledge for great gains in many facets of life. One facet in which the students should emulate the teachers is in thought and deed. By doing so we rise to the level in which they exist.

I ask….”Who is truly emulating the past guides today?” I see no one. Even Jesus of Nazareth said that we could do what he did and even greater things. It is claimed he walked on water, transmuted water to wine (not just by adding some yeast and sugar with grape juice), and rose from the dead. I haven’t seen any of that, even amongst Christians. Siddhartha taught what is a science and stated that all should be verified by personal efforts (all I see is monks debating and hand slapping). Lao Tsu taught how to have a society in line with the Tao (all I see is countries with greedy politicians that were voted into office by the victimized).

If you are to honor the true masters you must follow their example. These folks were very intent and intense. Heck, Siddhartha only ate “3 grains of rice” for three years to test austerities practice. These people became masters because they put it all on the line. Much like a modern world class athlete or an academic working toward earning a PhD. If you do not put in the time and effort you cannot expect much for your meager efforts. I do not know how many people likely answer a silly text message when they should be working on detachment in meditation practice. When you go to work you will follow the rules set forth to be successful. Yes? Then why not follow the rules set forth by the teachers whom have given you the info that will lead to universal liberation in the same way as your company you work for?

1.This event is past and cannot be changed.
2.Letting go of the past will allow me to be more present.
3.Relationships that I enter into will be better served by being aware of the past but not emotionally applying those experiences in the here and now.
4.Letting go will give me a feeling of actual physical bliss and lightness.
5.Only children dwell on the past.

Having analyzed the above list ask yourself, “Have I been clear in those areas?” If in the deepest of inner truth you cannot say yes then you have not been clear about your life and possibly many decisions you have made and are likely going to make.

Why have you not been clear? It does not matter because by participating in this information portal you will be introduced to some of the greatest guides from the ancient and modern world. These guides taught how to truly navigate this world skillfully and joyfully. What these guides taught was timeless, consistent, and uplifting. Nothing will be held back and I will always share the secrets with you no matter how common or profound they may be.

To walk in the light of clarity is to walk with the eyes and ears of wisdom. In the conventional sense wisdom is being of sound mind and making accurate judgments based on; knowledge, experience, and understanding. In the esoteric universal view, wisdom is the realization of the source and the interaction of interdependent causation.

Some of the various messiahs that are to come from various religions are; Jesus(Christianity), Meshiack (Judaism although some that adhere to Judaism believe Jesus to be the Messiah although it is not the standard belief), Imam Mahdi (Islam), Maitreya (Buddhism), Kalki (Hinduism), Saoshyant(Zoroastrianism), The True Man (Confucianism and Taoism). This may not be an all inclusive list but, it gives you a sense of how many people believe that a savior is coming. One challenge with this Messiah concept is the timeline. None of these schools of thought give an accurate sense of when the Messiah will come and some do not give a time at all. This situation leaves much to be interpreted. Some of the schools of thought do state general conditions where which the messiah will make manifest itself, yet even that can be left to personal perspective. What may be dire straits for one may not seem too bad to others and so on.

Let us take a look at the deterioration of society from the perspective or various spiritual schools using the Christian 10 commandments. I will use this set of guidelines because it is a good barometer of how well you or a society is governing behavior.

The 10 commandments are:

1.

You shall have no other gods before me.
2.

You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
3.

You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
4.

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
5.

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
6.

You shall not murder.
7.

You shall not commit adultery.
8.

You shall not steal.
9.

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10.

You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

Looking at the listing and how societies are functioning, we are far from measuring up to these basic requirements. You see adultery at an all time high, so much so that there are shows on mainstream television portraying such lifestyles as almost glamorous. Do not become twisted about this last line. Sex is not wrong in the universal sense. But, if you understand the requirements for what it takes to transcend the desire realm to everlasting bliss you would know the challenges extreme desires for sexual encounters pose. Sex is certainly natural and necessary for propagating human life. However, to cultivate the true means to become more than human while still having a body of flesh but your body of flesh must take on the properties of a higher existence. When you experience higher inner cell bliss you will have no desire for human level intimacy because your experience of pleasure has been upgraded to something better.

Many of the commandants basically point to resting your mind in the creator. But, remember in the first book of the bible the world was without form and void. It is this void that you find the true potential of all manifestations. It is the void that the true God rest in nothingness.

When thinking of how far off we are as a species from the behavior of a spiritually centered way of life you would think someone needs to put life back into perspective. This observation through the ages has resulted in the desire for a savior.

You shall have no other gods before me.

This is the first commandment. Why? According to Buddhism there are many gods in many stations of existence in many realms each, with who knows how many levels of life. If this is true how could a person choose to be monotheistic if gods are plentiful? First, the original god or source supersedes all other manifestations. This original source is the key to liberation but, you must understand what it means to be a source to all manifestation. There are two basic aspects of reality. That which has never been born an that which is made manifest. The manifest depends on the not born for existence because to exist is to be dependent. That which is never born needs no support and therefore is everlasting. It is that unborn state that can have no other before it, for it is not. To truly realize this original source you also realize that there can never be any god or thing before it because it has always been and not been.

You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

This second one is complicated and would require me to likely offend someone so I will only address it in live lectures where those attending are willing to hear something very different but true.

You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.

Relates to the second one as well and therefore cannot be addressed in general public.

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor the stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

Think of how important it is for you to get a handle on your spiritual practice. All week you work for the impermanent without thinking how what you are working for will last but a season. This life will bear fruit and that fruit may decide your existence for what seems like eternity. With so much at stake why do you live as if when you pass on, nothing of this life comes with you? What spiritual practice and living does for you is give you a chance to be the master moving the pawns as opposed to being the pawn. Becoming the masters of your destiny takes commitment but your commitment will reap rewards beyond your current level of understanding.. If this was not so, you would be nodding instead of shaking your head. To take at least one day a week and focus on the eternal is actually a joke, but it beats doing nothing. True spiritual attainment allows you to be in a state of reverence at all time no matter what you are doing, much a like a Mage manipulates elements with no effort.

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

It is said that a child could never repay the debt owed, so to at least try is necessary. If you are fortunate to have or have had wise parents, they likely are an asset to you because they have done most of what you are about to do, or are in the process of. To not honor them and yourself is a display of ignorance that can set you back many years in your evolution. Not to say are parents our created equal because sometimes the learning is by observing and doing the opposite. Wisdom tells you which scenario applies.

You shall not murder.

No explanation needed unless you request one.

You shall not commit adultery.

This is a long post so I will be brief. Too much focus on material pleasures clouds your drive for spiritual pleasure and ultimately transcendence. That is all I will say for now.

You shall not steal. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

The last three I lumped together because they are very clear. When people and societies behave contrary to the last three commandments, anarchy soon follows.
