TWENTY SECOND DIALOGUE
January 18, 1999
Peter: Before beginning with my own questions — not that I have any
for today — I would like to ask You if You would like to make any
comments, clarifications or anything at all, this morning?
The Lord Jesus Christ: Yes, Peter, I would like to do so. Several issues
exist that need further clarification and explanation. The issue is, once
again, timeliness. Certain things need to be clarified further because the
proper climate and condition were established for this to happen. Also,
because the issues have to be presented and elaborated upon in
progressive steps in order to reflect the development and implementation
of the shift currently occurring. As the shift is being manifested further
and further, so are the needs to clarify, explain, elaborate and discuss its
various aspects. In the sense of spiritual correspondences, these needs
are manifested in the questions and answers, and in their gradual
recording, which reflect the nature of this shift.
So, to simplify, as the shift is progressing from one level to another, and
from one step to another, so are these Dialogs and what they contain.
The shift presently occurring has a somewhat different connotation than
any previous ones. Whereas during the previous shifts, there always was
a sense of their beginning and ending, and the setting in of the period of
their rule, implementation and impact, the present shift has a
progressive and continuous nature without the anticipation of it ending
soon. We have here a synchronous occurrence and parallel manifestation
of the nature of this shift and of what it entails. This situation somewhat
bypasses the law of cause and effect; meaning that first there is a cause
and then there is a subsequent effect. In our case, with this shift, the
cause and effect are not of a sequential manifestation, but parallel,
synchronous and simultaneous. So, as the shift is moving on forward and
onward, so is its impact, influence and rule without a waiting period for
it to set in at each point of its occurrence. It does set in but without this
waiting period. However, in the moment we need to bring to your
attention some other clarifications regarding the discussed issues, it is
necessary to yield to the sequential requirement of human nature
because of its inability to perceive or understand things in a
synchronous, parallel and simultaneous manner. Hence, the need for
clarifications in steps.
The first brief clarification needs to be made on the term ‘common
people.’ The way its definition was offered in the previous Dialog could
give an incorrect impression to some readers that common people might
be less valuable, less needed or less important in the scheme of the
manifestation of the nature of the negative state. The reason why
someone agrees to incarnate in the life of so-called commonalities, is for
the purpose of illustrating the nature and character of a life without any
particular interest in deeper spiritual issues and similar important
factors of life in general. In other words, the question is, what would life
be like if it were to be devoid of any, or have very marginal and
superficial interest in the issues that really count and are the most
important factors of any life? Is such a life possible? And if it is, would
anyone be able to survive it for too long without any stimulation or
interest in such issues? What is being illustrated here is another
important aspect of the nature of the negative state as well as of some
aspects of the nature of human life. It is an illustration and
demonstration of a life of boredom, emptiness, meaninglessness,
purposelessness and similar negative factors inconceivable in the
positive state. It is a clear-cut demonstration of what happens, or what is
the outcome, if life has no proper spiritual foundation, no deeper
meaning, but instead, is rooted in superficiality, preoccupation with
external events, without any, or very little awareness of the inner,
internal or within factors of life and their spiritual origin and
correspondences.
So, in assessing the value of common people, you need to realize that by
agreeing to exhibit and demonstrate this type of life, they provide very
important and valuable services for the entire Creation, contributing
very vital information to the cache of multiversal knowledge. Thus, it
would be very improper to underestimate their role or to look down upon
them.
The second clarification relates to the issue of the grammatical structure
or to the formal expression of the ideas recorded in My New Revelation
and in these Dialogs. The major reason, although not the only one, for
choosing someone like you, Peter, to be their transmitter was to parallel
the way things are being presented to the inhabitants of the positive
state. As you know, in the positive state, or in the Spiritual World
proper, everything is presented to them as ideas. In order to train
readers of My New Revelation to concentrate on ideas and not on the
external form of their expression or how they are written, it was and is
sometimes necessary to violate the grammatical rules for expressing
such ideas. You look for ideas and by doing that you bring yourself into
alignment with the positive state. This alignment establishes a line of
direct communication with the Spiritual World, enabling you to be in
direct contact both with Me and the members of your spiritual family
and other inhabitants of the positive state. This mode of connection
makes it possible for you to be bridges and translators in both directions.
On the other hand, if you are bogged down in the formal, external
expression of those ideas, their proper meaning may elude you, and
because of that, the line of communication cannot be established. You
have remained in the externals. No true spiritual meaning was acquired.
This situation has another drawback. If one puts too much into the
external formal expression of ideas and things, upon arriving in the
spiritual world, one has tremendous difficulties understanding what is
being presented or required from him/her. In that case, such an
individual needs to undergo a somewhat lengthy training and
decontamination from the habit and attachment to such a mode of
externalization. So, by training yourself to perceive My New Revelation
and these Dialogs, which are becoming an integral part of it, as spiritual
ideas rather than grammatical constructs, you are being trained in the
manner and mode of life in the positive state and My Creation in general.
That way you will avoid wasting time, effort and energy on the process of
decontamination and retraining in that manner and mode. Don’t
underestimate this process and don’t be upset whenever you encounter
some grammatical problems in these recordings.
Talking about attachments, habits and addictions, this brings us to the
third issue that needs clarification — the issue of attachments.
The issue of attachments doesn’t relate only to pets, trinkets and similar
minor conveniences. One can be attached to many things, including
grammar and various daily rituals. However, one can also become
attached to a relationship. Strong attachments can become dangerous
habits and/or even addictions. At one point in time, you can find yourself
in a situation when life becomes unbearable and even impossible without
them. When it gets to this point, the situation with one’s attachments
becomes spiritually very dangerous. Take, for example, a strong
attachment to one’s dog or cat or whatever animal. If that attachment
graduates to the point that you find yourself saying, ‘I can’t live without
my dog or cat,’ your attachment has been internalized, embedded into
the structure of your personality, and it becomes an integral part of your
self-identity. And here comes the spiritual danger of that situation from
the standpoint of your life, following your departure from planet Zero.
You take all such attachments with you. When you arrive in the spiritual
world, your very first impulse is to seek out the subject of your
attachments. After all, you did internalize the factor that you can’t live
without them. So, you have an immediate tendency to establish their
corresponding factors in order to continue in your life of attachments. As
you know, each attachment has corresponding representations in the
spiritual world. You seek out the state and condition where such
corresponding representations of your attachments are manifested.
Imagine please, your attachment to a cat or a dog. Because their
corresponding representations can be found only in the Hells, your
strongest pull would be to go in the direction of the respective Hell where
they are manifested or reside.
Unfortunately, this is true even if someone is basically of a positive
nature or is an agent of the positive state. This situation illustrates the
possible trap set up for you by the forces of the negative state through
such attachments in order to get you into one of their Hells so that they
can torture you or sway you to their cause while you are looking for the
subjects of your attachments in one of their Hells.
However, let us take another example, a more dangerous one, the result
of which could last for a long period of time, causing much unnecessary
suffering and pain. Take, for example, someone who is an agent of the
positive state and sexually or maritally involved with an agent of the
negative state while living on planet Zero. In the process of such a
marital, sexual or deep friendship type of relationship, a very strong
bond, attachment and mutual interdependency is established, to the
point that it becomes symbiotic and addictive. In essence, they almost
become like one. In this case, a setup is established in which both
partners in that relationship internalize and identify themselves with
their symbiotic relationship to the point that they proclaim that they
can’t live without each other.
Let us assume that the agent of the negative state dies first, followed by
the death of the agent of the positive state. What do you think is going to
happen? Upon arriving in the spiritual world, the first thing the agent of
the positive state will desire to find will be the subject of his/her
attachment and symbiotic relationship. After all, he/she can’t live
without his/her partner. At least that’s what he/she thinks. But because
his/her partner is in one of the Hells, being that he/she was an agent of
the negative state, the agent of the positive state has a very strong pull
to go after his/her partner. Again, a trap has been set up by the forces of
the negative state through their agent in order to corrupt or get the
agent of the positive state into one of their Hells, where they can perform
all kinds of unimaginable things on him/her for the purpose of making
him/her their slave and follower.
I can assure you that it takes much longer and it is much more painful to
get out of the Hells for such a respective agent in a situation like this, in
comparison with someone who is looking for his/her animal attachments
there. What you have to understand about this particular example, is
that an agent of the positive state who is in such a symbiotic relationship
with an agent of the negative state, will choose to go the respective Hell
where his/her partner is, not only because of the dependency on his/her
partner, but also because of the inherent nature of the agent of the
positive state which is rooted in mercy, forgiveness and compassion.
He/she will go to the Hells in order to save his/her partner and to bring
him/her out of the Hells. Little does he/she know what will be expecting
him/her there.
As you see from these examples, the situation can be very complicated by
such attachments, habits and addictions. A heroin addict for example, at
the very first moment of arriving in the spiritual world, will look for a
source of supply that can assuage his/her craving. So will the user of
nicotine products and drinker of strong coffee, alcohol or any other
addictive substances; so is anyone who is addicted to anything. The
withdrawal symptoms from such addictive agents are much worse in that
world than on planet Zero because of the spiritual correspondences of
such chemical agents and their negative spiritual roots.
Why is it that such strong attachments, habits and addictions, if
internalized to the point that they become an integral component of one’s
self-identity, are so spiritually dangerous? Consider this: When you
become attached, habituated or addicted to someone or something, you
become dependent on them. All your thoughts, feelings, emotions,
behavior, attitude, motivation, intentions and all other aspects of your
mental faculties will revolve around your attachments. (Do you
remember what happens to you when you fall in love with someone?) You
won’t be able to live without them. Your life will become extremely
uncomfortable without them. You really become, to the fullest possible
extent, your own self-fulfilling prophecy rooted in your statement, ‘I can’t
live without you.’ In that case, your independence, your true
individuality, personality and self-identity will get shattered and
replaced with something artificially imposed on you from the outside. In
the moment this happens, the door to the Hells is fully opened, and you
are invaded by a host of negative and evil spirits who feed on such
conditions. Gradually and slowly, without you becoming aware, they will
take over your life and will rule all aspects of it from the position of the
negative state. In that case, you would lose your freedom and
independence. And if this becomes a fact in your life, you would lose your
direct contact with Me and with the true spiritual reality. You would
become a slave of the forces of the negative state.
One of the reasons why it was indicated to you in Chapter 20 of The New
Revelation of The Lord Jesus Christ to avoid as much as possible
getting involved sexually or otherwise with someone who is not of the
same spiritual orientation as you are, or who does not accept My New
Revelation as My True Word, was in order to give you a preventive
option or to save you from developing these kinds of attachments and
symbiotic relationships which could lead you into a trap, ending up in the
way described above. You should never underestimate the potency,
power, pseudo-creativity and cunning of the forces of the negative state
who are very inventive in setting up all kinds of traps for the agents of
the positive state on planet Zero in order to detour them from their
mission and assignment, and lull them into one of their Hells upon their
recall from your planet.
This warning became especially timely and acute during the process of
the current shift. As the negative state’s condensation becomes denser
and denser and intense, so does its efficiency in enabling their traps to
become more effective to work on you, especially and particularly
through your attachments, habits, addictions and similar factors. A
spiritual war is going on and the weapons of the negative state have
become more sophisticated and effective in their assaultive properties.
This is permitted to happen in order to bring about the negative state’s
pseudo-victory on your planet and elsewhere. However, if you are careful
and take to heart these warnings and rely on Me and My New
Revelation, you will be protected from falling into such traps. For that
reason, I would humbly advise everyone of you to carefully examine your
attachments, routines, habits or addictions, or whatever you might have
in this respect, in order to determine their nature (how negative they are
— if at all!) and how much or how far they have taken hold of you, to the
point of totally depending on them; so that you may get rid of them. That
way you will avoid falling into the negative state’s traps.
Peter: I appreciate Your warning very much. As You know, the human
tendency is to establish all kinds of attachments, develop all kinds of
habituations and become addicted to many things. But is there anything
like good and positive attachments and habituations?
The Lord Jesus Christ: Well, it depends on what they are. For
example, a good habit is to read My New Revelation on a daily basis, to
meditate, to communicate with Me and the members of your spiritual
family or to exercise in order to maintain your physical body in a healthy
condition so that your spirit and soul can fully manifest their functions
without impediment or restriction. What is the purpose of attachments
and habits as these? To be a better human being, a more spiritually,
mentally and physically healthy human being, a more positive human
being, more loving, wiser, effective, efficient, useful, fruitful and more
and more as and like I am, relative to My Absolute Condition and
Nature. The purpose here is positive and because it is positive, it stems
from the internals or from the positive state, or ultimately from Me. In
the true reality of their nature, they are not true attachments, habits or
addictions but an orderly and lawful maintenance of your life in a
healthy condition in the midst of the sick, insane and unhealthy negative
state in order to avoid being contaminated, polluted and poisoned by its
atmosphere and environment. Can you see the difference?
The other types of strong attachments, as enumerated above, are of a
negative origin because they don’t have any positive connotation and
they are of an external nature only. They don’t lead you to your within.
Or if they do, as with mind-altering illicit drugs, it is a false or pseudo-
within where the negative state resides or is rooted. The weaker aspects
of such attachments are either neutral or have some positive connotation
in triggering in humans the ability to experience compassion, etc. —
having dogs and cats, for example, but without any deeper attachments
or internalization.
And, finally for today, I would like to make a brief comment about one
aspect of your telephone conversation with Dan yesterday. It directly
relates to My New Nature and how it is being accommodated or changed
in the process of humankind’s development throughout the ages.
Although the full nature of this process is impossible for you to
understand, comprehend or apprehend, because it happens in and from
the Absolute State and Condition, the way you have to conceptualize this
process is as follows: Any changes that happen at all anywhere, and not
only in the process of humankind’s development, are the result of My
Absolute Change. This is an absolutely dynamic process. As you know,
nothing is ever the same at each moment or state of progression. This
situation reflects changes in the Absolute which are subsequently
conveyed to the relative. As a result of those changes being released from
the Absolute into the relative, the relative subsequently changes also. So,
to be more specific: In human history there has been a progression from
the early ages of obscurity, to the Dark and Middle Ages, to the
Renaissance, to the Industrial Revolution, to the present advanced
technological accomplishments, etc.
All these stages have profound spiritual correspondences and they reflect
or are the results of the release of some new information from My
Absolute Nature which impacts everyone, including those in the negative
state and on your planet. Without them being released from Me, no
changes or progression could ever occur anywhere whatsoever. At the
same time, simultaneously and synchronously with these changes in My
Nature, I accommodate Myself to the perceptive, receptive and
impressive abilities of all sentient entities, humans and My agents on
planet Zero and, also to you, Peter, personally, as the transmitter of My
New Revelation; and relate to all of them and to all of you from this new
level of accomplishments and changes. This is the reason why you see so
clearly how I relate to you differently or in a different mode of conveying
My Word at each junction of such changes.
The present situation and shift reflect a further degree of change with
the subsequent need to accommodate Myself and you to the present mode
of conveying My information and communication to you, as reflected in
this particular form — in the form of Dialogs. It all has a very deep
spiritual meaning. Do you see, Peter, how all these things have a
tremendous significance reflecting the progressive changes in the fabric
of being and existence and pseudo-being and pseudo-existence?
Peter: Yes, Sir, very clearly. And thank You very much for this
explanation. Is there anything else today that You would like to clarify?
The Lord Jesus Christ: No, Peter, it is sufficient for today. Go and
rest. Your physical body is somewhat tired. Have a very pleasant
afternoon.
