A Refinement Of Everything
Written and transcribed by Terry Grant

This is a continuation of a message I have transcribed and edited from a talk Ishvara gave on June 25, 2006. - TG.

Ishvara:

There is a saying, "You cannot serve two masters." That is a cosmic principle. Imagine what would happen to the earth if it tried to go around two different suns. It would be torn asunder.

So when you find something that you resonate with, something that speaks to you, inspires you, encourages you, something that helps you gain a connection and clarity, you best stick to it. You best make every attempt not to let it be diluted or distorted from the outside.

There are many well-meaning processes, systems and structures out there, but they are not for you. They are not for you! They are past. They are not about The New Consciousness, the New Species; they are about a past edition of humanity, the old consciousness. They served humanity "then," but they don't serve now.

When you recognize something that is real, that is the truth, that is present, it is important to realize you have recognized it, in spite of your beliefs, in spite of the outside, in spite of your past.

To move forward, you turn your back on the past. You can have respect for the past. You can respect everything that was, realizing it served, in whatever way it could, at that time. But humanity is changing. The backdrop of existence is different and new, and very few recognize that. The principle by which humanity will accelerate and achieve its next level of existence has totally changed. Very few see that. Most people seem to wear blinders, thinking everything is the same. Greed rules, control is the method of choice, separation and the belief in the "other" predominate. Everything in the old consciousness is so obvious.

Yet there is something most grand taking place within the heart and core of humanity: a shift, a change, though it goes undetected. Very few believe it is possible. People continue to compare to others what I am saying and what I am giving. There are similarities, because it is Life, but there is no exactness, because it is Life. Life is continuously changing, building upon the past, becoming more. That too is a cosmic principle. That is the way it works: it is always different, always new.

Humanity is heading into a rapid transition, a change, and it is ill-prepared for this transformation. It is still grappling over separation, egomania, ignorance, stupidity, greed, selfishness, jealousy, upmanship--all of the things in the human arena that are so distorted, so destructive, so distracting. It is still clinging to these.

The person on the street asks, "What's in it for me?" That is utter selfishness. "Will I survive? Will I get what I want? Will I have my way with the world?" The answer is no. Your time has run out. You have had all the time you need to be greedy, to be selfish, to be ignorant, and all the time you need to be intelligent. You have had all the time that the universe has allowed you. It must change.

This is hard. Humans will be forced to change. The old way of life cannot be maintained. Jealousy, greed, separation, vengeance and judgment are part of the old consciousness that is falling away. Some say, "Well, let it fall faster." Others say, "What will we do? We don't know this 'New Consciousness' stuff; it sounds like a bunch of hooey. How could it be true? Humans are humans."

Yet the truth is present, the truth has embodied itself in this form [meaning himself], in order to inspire, to encourage, to set you on fire actually. It is like the process of purifying gold: you melt it and melt it and melt it, until all the impurities are gone, and what remains is pure. The New Consciousness is pure, a refinement of everything that humans have ever experienced, a refinement, a melt-down, a dissolving, until there is nothing left of the impurities, nothing of the fear, nothing of the separation, nothing of the ego.

The New Consciousness cannot be distorted or distracted. It is absolutely one-pointed, seeing through everything. It is the next step. You can take that step willingly, or you can be dragged through the keyhole.

You can move with your own power, grasping the truth, turning your back on the "other," letting go of the past, letting go of wishful thinking, acquiring the true vision, the vision of the truth of the cosmos, the universe, that is present in physical form, in order to lift humanity to the next level of its existence.


(To be concluded next week).
