| 2009.04.19 IGNORANCE OF CONSCIOUSNESS: A Channeling of Jade Fire Welcome, beloveds. There is a word you often use: lack. You need to understand this word. What does it really mean? Lack is not deficiency, not weakness, not a flaw. Lack is the absence of full awareness of Consciousness. When you are ignorant of Consciousness, you are in lack. Your physical lives are clear manifestations of either your awareness of Consciousness or ignorance of Consciousness. In which areas of your life are you in full awareness of Consciousness? The answer lies in areas of your life where you face no struggle, no strife, where you can, effortlessly, move from one situation to another. Lack of Consciousness is evident in those areas where the universe, your soul, demands diligent effort. This effort is prodded forth from you by drawing you into situations you might well consider, strife. Let us take pay attention to some of the universally common areas that humanity, as a whole, needs to develop Consciousness of. The first such area is ‘money’. The human ignorance of the Consciousness of money has manifested in the global economic recession. All have asked: when will it end? Our answer to this: there is no end to any situation. There is only continuity or there is transformation. Transformation occurs when there is awareness of this Consciousness. The first truth of this Consciousness is that money does not make you rich. You are not as rich as your bank account, and you are not as poor as what is missing from there. You are as rich as your ability to fulfill your potential as a spirit beingness for which you have taken birth. If you are living, let us assume, with 95% of your potential fulfilled, you are most definitely a very rich person, even if there is nothing in the bank. If you are living with 10% of your potential, you may have the corporate world at your feet but you are very poor. Thus Consciousness of money reveals to you that you are neither rich nor poor because of money. The second truth is that abundance is not about prosperity and wealth. Many talk of their desire to manifest abundance, when all they wish to manifest is money and wealth. Money, wealth and possessions cannot be manifested. You may try as you might, you may pray, you may chant; if your prayer asks for money or possessions, it will not be answered, for Consciousness brings abundance, not possessions. Let us explain this in greater clarity. Let us assume that you really wish to have 5 million rupees to fulfill a desire. The universe is with you and joyously tells you: “Go ahead. Fulfill that desire.” The 5 million rupees is yours to command. But you must have the abundance to command it. The Rs. 5 million are already there; to bring it down to your vibration level you must have the required inner abundance. What is the Consciousness of abundance? It is the Consciousness of your spirit potential. You have come to Earth for a purpose. You may say, “I do not know that purpose” and we will reply, “Untrue!” The answer is lying with you. And no, not within you; it is lying outside of you so that you can see it very easily. But where will you look? Look in those areas of your life where you are facing the greatest strife. There lie the reasons why you have taken birth. That is where your spirit potential has to manifest in 100% expression. That is abundance. If you are abundant in your area of strife, you will naturally be abundant in every other area. Of course this is not easy, for strife and conflict move you towards judgment and criticism, blame and envy. What is 100% of spirit potential? To see all as you! The less you see others as you, the greater lack there is in your life. To see others as you is not merely an intelligent exercise. You have to experience the other as you, for that strife which occurs in your life in order to encourage you to attain this 100% spirit potential, will only get more intense if you resist the truth of oneness. In every conflict, at every moment, you must experience the other as you. Conflict arises because of the absence of awareness of Consciousness of Unity. The extent of the rift between you and spirit potential is manifested in the strength of the struggle in your life. The result of a struggle does not lie in personal victory or defeat. In order to win, you have to be separate from the other. In order to lose, you have to be separate from the other. Your desires also tell you whether you are in the fullness of Consciousness or in ignorance of Consciousness. There is no person in living embodiment, today, who is in complete ignorance, for humanity has evolved to a significant level where awareness of Consciousness has expanded. How will you know how much of this potential you have already tapped into? The answer is simple: Look outside! How many areas of your life give you joy? The greater the number of areas, the greater is the potential you have tapped into. While looking into these areas, don’t forget the vital areas that many take for granted: your ability to digest food, your ability to breathe without a problem, your ability to walk, your ability to sit, your ability to think, your ability to speak. When there is no strife, your awareness of Consciousness in that area is full and complete. Sometimes, you confuse one area of your life with all of life itself. You might have a relationship struggle with one person and though it may be a very severe struggle, it does not mean that you have a life of strife and conflict. Put it in perspective. It is one area of your life. Be aware in gratitude of the numerous other areas where spirit potential is manifesting joyously. We are certain that if you were to sit and pen down the areas in your life where there is lack of full awareness of Consciousness, and then pen down areas where there is full awareness of Consciousness, your list of conscious development will be far longer than the list of ignorance. And that is how rich you are. As soon as you are aware of how rich you are, you become a magnet for universal abundance. You have often questioned what is abundance. Abundance is knowing I am rich. Abundance is knowing that there is no lack, no deficiency, no weakness, no flaw, in the universe. That is how you manifest abundance: when you know you are rich, even when you perceive you have no money to pay that bill. And the miracle is: when you know you are rich, you cannot not have the money to pay that bill. But you will still say, “I am poor”. Why? Because you have Rs.5000 to pay a Rs 5000 bill, and after that you have nothing. So you will instantly start worrying about a bill that will come a fortnight later. When you are rich, there is no area of your life which will not be fulfilled. So a fortnight later, when that bill comes around, in the same post will come a cheque exactly of that amount. But you will still say you are not rich because you don’t have that in your bank account. Beloveds, what is significant is not how much you have in that purse, but how powerful is your ability to draw it to you, whenever you need, however much you need. Consciousness of money makes you a vibrant magnet of abundance and when a need arises, it is fulfilled instantly. But your lack of full awareness of this Consciousness makes you constantly worry where your next buck will come from, makes you hold on to your possessions. How do these make you poorer or richer? The truth, beloveds, is: the more you possess, often the poorer you are. Now let us turn our attention to relationships: what is the Consciousness of relationships? No, beloveds, it is futile to only consider intimate associations as ‘relationships’. Very often more vital relationships are had with acquaintances than with your own children. So let us view human interaction at large. The truth of the Consciousness of awareness of human interaction is unconditional love of yourself. Once you have accepted yourself, then you will not judge another, you will not feel separate from another, you will speak kindly, you will relate well. Do you still not see that each time harsh words are exchanged, it is because the other has forced you to be aware of a flaw which you unconsciously believe is present within you, but which you do not wish to recognize. You, therefore, blame the other for becoming the undeniable prod. Unless the child knows that he doesn’t know, will he be open to learning? And does he feel ashamed that he is in the 5th grade but his older brother is in the 10th grade? Isn’t human interaction exactly that: development of your awareness of Consciousness? Why are you so ashamed of, and resistant to, those areas where there is ignorance? This leads to continuity of conflict instead of transformation. When you pray for a situation to be resolved, beloveds, who do you pray to? Only the Self can give you answers; only the Self can resolve. Yes, the higher energies are present, the universe is present, but their role is to give you the strength, the courage, the power, to recognize. Inner vision is empowered. The more aware you are of Consciousness, the more enriched life is. Consciousness is not an abstract, esoteric term. Consciousness is life itself. (A member of the group coughed at this moment) We will take her as an example. She coughed. Is she aware of the Consciousness of this cough? Is she aware that she coughed because something in our words has activated her throat chakra where she has uttered harsh words out of the ignorance of Consciousness and the cough has been emitted to draw her attention to this? Consciousness is life itself; but you allow life to bypass you, even as you pray for a long life. It is not how many years you live; it is whether you have lived at all. Life is not about running down another; it is about uplifting all. You are not al-one; you are all-one. That is the fullest awareness of Consciousness, and that Consciousness can be awakened only when there is unconditional love for yourself. When you do not unconditionally love yourself, it expresses itself as mean and selfish acts. When there is unconditional love for yourself, it expresses itself as the greatest human service you can give. In this service there is no element of self-negation, no element of self-sacrifice. Attempt this! Attempt Consciousness till we meet again. |
