FORTY FOURTH DIALOGUE

February 17, 1999

Peter: Although some questions are on my mind, I would like to ask You first if You have anything to clarify or add to anything You wish.

The Lord Jesus Christ: Thank you, Peter, for asking Me to do so first. I do have some additional comments primarily related to the topic of our discussion in the Forty Third Dialog.

The first comment relates to the issue of discrepancies that you might have in your manner of treating other individuals between your external, outward behavior and your internal, private thoughts and feelings about them. If you have some negative opinion about someone, and internally in your own thoughts and feelings you express your dislike about them, considering them to be negative, maybe even evil, but externally you behave nicely and cordially toward them, you are setting yourself up for being treated in the same manner as your internal disposition is toward them.

The way you have to understand this statement is that it is not necessarily the same individual who will reciprocate your internal treatment of him/her. It may or may not be the same person. What happens in cases like that is that all your negative thoughts, feelings, attitudes, behaviors, etc., which you have about anyone on an internal level, and on the level of your interactions in the other dimensions, are captured and registered in a region of the negative state’s pseudo- universal consciousness which specializes in gathering such states from various human minds. From that region they can be released and imparted on someone else who would fulfill the requirements of ,‘with the same measure you use, it will be measured back to you.’

A good example of this situation can be found in the experiences you might have in your various encounters with other people. Take for example, the workshops you were conducting for professional people at the University of California in prior years, Peter. You were always baffled why someone in the workshop would take an intense dislike to you and your methods of teaching without any apparent reasons. Or why when you entered the classroom, without saying a word, you would find yourself instantly disliking someone or you were instantly disliked by someone. You had never met that person before, you had never talked to or interacted with that person, and externally, objectively, you had no reason, nor that person had a reason to have such a seemingly unexplainable attitude. Yet, there you are, you simply cannot stand him/her or he/she cannot stand you. And no obvious or clear explanation is available to you for why this is the case.

As you see from this example, your negative internal attitude and state of mind about anyone, if it is discrepant with your external behavior, can be triggered unexpectedly during your interaction with some other individuals toward whom you don’t have any apparent or hidden negative feelings, thoughts or attitude. In other words, your internal disposition toward that person is congruent with your external behavior. And yet, despite the fact that you are so nice and kind toward that particular person, both internally and externally, that person treats you very negatively. And you wonder why, because you gave him/her no reason whatsoever to treat you that way. Now you know why. Your prior internal, negative and inappropriate thoughts, feelings, attitudes and behaviors, expressed toward someone else on another level, were put into the position of repaying back to you, by someone else, in the exact same manner and mode as you exhibited sometime in the past.

Peter: Thank You so much for this explanation. For the first time, I am able to understand why this was the case so many times in my life. At that time it really didn’t make any sense.

The Lord Jesus Christ: Yes, Peter. The reason I am bringing up this issue again is to help you realize this fact so that you may train yourself to have congruency between your inner states of mind and their external expressions. This is a requirement which needs to be put into the foundation of your role and assignment as My true representatives. By learning to harmonize those two, you will be able to effectively empty the cache of such negative states that your mind kept in the above mentioned region of the Zone of Displacement, to which, you are likewise connected. That way, there would be nothing there from you personally which could be utilized to repay anything negative back to you.

At the same time, you have to realize that any such negative states of mind may be very effectively utilized by the forces of the negative state, especially by the renegades, to target you and make your life miserable; thus, impeding your work for Me as My true representatives.

I want you to be aware that the present state of affairs with the renegades, as related to your position and role during this shift, is such that they look out for anything at all they can find to harass you and interfere with your work. The obvious and crude methods of such interference are no danger for you because you can instantly recognize what types of games they are playing with you. The ones that are not so obvious, and which are disguised and hidden, could become a problem for you.

If you carefully examine your life, the way you think, feel, act, react; things you do, things you like or dislike, etc., you can find something in them that could be very effectively utilized by the renegades to target you. As mentioned previously in one of our Dialogs, the most spiritually dangerous situation exists in those conditions, habits, thoughts, concepts, ideas, attitudes, or whatever you have which are considered by you to be normal, appropriate, positive, good, innocent and godly, but are not. However, because you consider them to be so, it could never enter your mind to question the validity and appropriateness of their nature and how they really influence all aspects of your life. For that reason you exclude them from the process of your self-examination and you never consider them to be any danger to you in any way.

It is these types of characteristics of your life and behavior which could become a means for the renegades to target you very successfully. Finding out what they are, the renegades would be able to utilize them in such a way that subtly and imperceptibly, you would put the most prominent emphasis on them, making them the most important aspects of your life. By doing that they would effectively redirect your spiritual, mental and physical energies into them so that you would have nothing left to perform your most important work in the role and position of being My true representatives. Because you consider them to be normal, proper, positive, good and godly, it would never occur to you that you could be completely off your spiritual path. Should anything like that happen, you would lose your way and the renegades would get to you.

So, it would be advisable for you, if you wish and choose it by your own free will and choice, to turn yourself to Me, asking Me to help you to bring to your attention if there is anything in your life, attitude, behavior, thoughts, feelings or whatever, which you consider proper, positive, good, appropriate and godly, but is not so. And not only that — and this is very important — but also, if there is anything in your life which you consider improper, negative, bad, wrong and ungodly, but it is not so. Either situation may be utilized by the renegades to target you. After all, either view on those factors is false or distorted. Anything false or distorted becomes the renegades’ property. By that view and consideration you could inadvertently invite them to enter your life and to exert their influence on you.

Peter: This is a very timely warning. Especially in view of the fact that it would never occur to us that something in us, or in our attitude, views, opinions, behavior, habits or whatever, could be considered either proper, positive, good and godly, or, on the other hand, improper, negative, bad and ungodly, whereas neither consideration is correct.

The Lord Jesus Christ: Yes, Peter. This is the reason that I urge you to undertake such an exploration in order to make everything in your life, right. That way, the forces of the negative state will have no recourse in interfering with your work or in influencing you in an adverse manner.

Peter: Are there any other comments You would like to make?

The Lord Jesus Christ: Thank you for asking, Peter. Yes, I would. It relates to the issue of the possibility of My physical appearance to you as My representatives while you still reside in your bodies on planet Zero. From what was said about it in the Forty Third Dialog, it is obvious that if someone from the spiritual world would physically appear to any one of you, or to anyone on planet Zero besides you, and if that someone would claim to be Me or any of the members of your spiritual family, or any other entity disguised as someone holy or a saint, or an angel, archangel or whoever of a highly respected position, such an entity would be an imposter, a fake, a deceiving spirit who acquired this ability from the new pseudo-universe for this type of physical manifestation. No matter what such an entity would claim, no matter what he/she would say or do, no matter how many miracles he/she would perform, the role and the purpose of such an entity for a physical appearance would be to mislead, contaminate and divert you from your spiritual path and to impede your work for Me.

Remember please, as long as the negative state is active and functional, and as long as you are in the human life, such a physical appearance could never take place on My part or on the part of anyone from the positive state. The reasons for this impossibility were explained in the above mentioned Dialog.

It is quite conceivable that such physical appearances would be arranged by the forces of the negative state. This effort on their part is an integral component of their takeover and pseudo-winning on your planet. To tell you the truth, in actuality, they are frantically working and experimenting on establishing a tangible possibility for such physical appearances to take place. After all, what are the most potent and convincing methods but those, especially if they are accompanied by all kinds of miracles performed publicly in front of all humanity? Being that humans are so hungry for miracles, in their gullibility and desperation, they would buy into them without any hesitation or questioning their true source.

However, you are being forewarned that such things could happen very easily and they would be so convincing that you could fall into this particular trap. Believe Me, it wouldn’t be difficult not to buy into such convincing methods, especially if you see immediate positive results. But here is another caveat: Never look at what is happening on the scene but look behind it. The reality is not on the scene but always behind it. In other words, consider the real source of those happenings and not the happenings themselves. Also, consider the purpose for which those happenings were set up and not their manifestation or outcome.

Unfortunately, human nature is such that it takes everything on face value, from its external position, by judging its nature from its manifestation and outcome and not from its purpose, goal and intention, and from the reasons why it is happening at any particular time. In other words, in their nature, humans consider only those things to be real which are presented to them on the scene. In their presently existing condition they are unable, as well as unwilling, to recognize the fact that what they are looking at, what they are watching on the scene, what they consider to be reality, is, in fact, only an illusion which has no place in any known reality. However, that’s the only thing which is familiar to them and therefore, at the same time, the only thing which is acceptable to and accepted by them. Everything else, which is real and is behind the scene, eludes them.

On the other hand, you who have the privilege to have and to know this vital and crucial information, are put into the position to discern, distinguish and understand that which is real and which is not, what is on the scene and what is behind it, what is from the deceptive game- playing of the forces of the negative state and what is not, etc. Therefore, you have all the necessary training and abilities to avoid any such traps or being attracted to any such seemingly positive, good and beneficial results offered to humanity by the forces of the negative state. And very often, they even do it in, and under, My Name.

So, be prepared for any such events to materialize themselves on your planet during your life-span there. In your particular case, you may be tempted by the renegades with some kind of very harmless means, seemingly having no negative but only beneficial effects. A good example of those is something which you see in the lives of the so-called New Age people who use all kinds of external means, medicines, herbs and practices which are considered healthy and harmless, but could lead toward you being contaminated by the ideas of pseudo-spirituality, on which they are founded. Be aware and beware of such possibilities!

Peter: Thank You very much for this warning. At this point I would like to bring to Your attention a concern expressed by Dan and me about the spiritual correspondence of dark and very black coffee. The symbolism of blackness and darkness may be perceived by some African nations and African-Americans as racist and discriminatory against them. May I ask You humbly to elaborate on this issue?

The Lord Jesus Christ: Gladly, Peter. Your and Dan’s concerns are proper and need to be addressed. The issue here is the proper understanding of the spiritual correspondences of how, why, where and to what they apply, and from what source they originate. Take for example, the discussed strong black coffee drink. It was said that a dark and black color has some correspondence to the negative state in the sense that the negative state has no light or proper understanding of anything. In this sense, the negative state keeps itself in total darkness. It hides from the light of the positive state in order to conceal its true nature. Thus, its favorite color is black. For this reason, it is not by coincidence that even in the typical human art works and various shows, movies, television programs, etc., anything negative, evil, hellish, etc., is depicted in dark, black colors. On the other hand, everything positive, heavenly, good, kind, etc., is usually depicted in white, bright colors. The positive state is light itself, because it is enlightened about all things and has understanding about all things from Me Who can be conceptualized in this connotation as the Absolute Light. Thus, nothing is hidden from Me.

As you see from this description, correspondences don’t derive from non- sentient forms, such as for example, animals, plants or inanimate objects. Instead, they derive from the sentient mind. The state, condition, dynamics and process of the sentient mind produces ideas of itself or its nature which are projected from the state of its own within to the state of its without. In the without they appear as solid objects, in the forms of animals, plants and inanimate entities, reflecting the nature and content of that mind — whatever it may be. Thus, in this sense, you cannot ascribe to any sentient entity, no matter what color of skin he/she has, anything of that nature reflected in the without. The producer of correspondences cannot be also its receiver and reflector except as their feedback of how those correspondences are manifested in the external environment. Only non-sentient forms can be that way. Any sentient entity is in a state of self-awareness of his/her own ‘I am.’ That state is the originator and producer of any correspondences by virtue of its dynamic process and continuously emanating energies which carry the specificity and unique expression and impression of that ‘I am.’ Because of that, a sentient entity, in its own unique and unrepeatable and unduplicated nature, cannot be its own correspondence at the same time as he/she sends out his/her ideas about that nature in an outward direction, where it appears in some solid animated or inanimate form.

The black and dark people or humans are sentient entities. Because of that, their skin color doesn’t depict any type of correspondence and it cannot have any negative or positive correspondence. It is what they project from their own unique ‘I am’ which has either a negative or positive correspondence, respectively, or to put it also in a different connotation, what they, or any sentient entities regardless of the color of their skin, perform or do with such correspondences. Let’s take for example, the same coffee we were talking about. Coffee comes from the seeds or beans of the coffee plant. The coffee plant is a tropical evergreen (not black or dark) shrub or small tree of the genus Coffea of the family Rubiaceae. In their natural state, those beans are green. So, what happened to that green color which has either a positive or a neutral connotation? By the process of human technology, it was roasted. By that process it was turned into a dark, black color which has a negative connotation. What does this situation tell you, Peter? What was done here with something that originally may have a positive or neutral connotation or correspondence but was turned into something that is its opposite? This metaphor is very clear: Humans and members of the negative state take anything positive and turn it into negative. This is a depiction of the process of the activation of the negative state: Take everything that the positive state has and turn it into everything negative, bad, putrid, falsified and distorted.

However, in order to make it acceptable and desirable, it is presented to everyone as something pleasing and stimulating to the eyes, taste, smells and all other senses. Otherwise, it would not be accepted and consumed with such fervor. And here is the catch: By the process of roasting those coffee beans, when you brew them, you turn them into a highly addictive substance, containing numerous cancerous and other types of unhealthy chemicals, on which you become so dependent that you cannot take a step without them. When you are at that point, you have become a slave of your dependencies. You have lost your freedom and the negative state got to you. You have become a slave of your own negative correspondences. Now you are really dark and black regardless of the color of your skin. It is not your skin as such that counts here but your attitude and dependencies on the external non-sentient factors that count, and are such.

As you see from this example, Peter, the factor of the existence of all correspondences derives only from the sentient life forms. The external non-sentient life forms cannot exist without them. Thus, in this sense, it is what the sentient entities do with those non-sentient life forms which makes them reflect various states and desires of their mind either of the positive or the negative nature, respectively. By their own choice, the sentient entities, in our case, humans, very often enslave themselves to their own correspondences, becoming totally dependent on them.

Peter: Thank You very much for this explanation. Is there anything else You would like to add or discuss today?

The Lord Jesus Christ: No, Peter, this will be all for today. Have a nice day.
