Archangel Michael and I joked some time ago about how, after griping and moaning my way through these months and years, when things really begin to break, I’ll say to him: “We did it!”
He knows that, though we may kick and scream, we’ll claim full credit afterwards. Here’s that exchange:
Steve Beckow: [As the price of my cooperation] I exact my pound of flesh!
Archangel Michael: You exact your pound of drama, dear heart. It is quite ironic that [you are] engaging in drama when change is the only reality that you are representing!
So it is ironic, is it not? You are amongst ― and I do not mean just you, Steve; I mean this little circle [the Nova Earth Team] – you are the group that are worrying the most and yet effecting the biggest change.
And then you say, “Should I trust in the change? Should I count on the change?” when you are in fact the agents of change.
SB: Right. And after all our griping, watch us in the end say, “We did it!” [laughs]
AAM: Yes, you will want full credit. (1)
What finally won me over and had me forget about my doubts and grumbling was his sweetness. I learn from him even when bantering. It’d take a lot now to dislodge me from our relationship.
I’m coming across wonderful synoptic statements from him in the course of researching an article on heart consciousness. The latter is probably the most important topic I can think of. Heart consciousness is yet another way of saying “Fifth Dimensionality.”
I post them as they are and hope folks choose to spend some time with them.
In the first quote, AAM starts out on the subject of octaves and ends up reviewing the whole of our spiritual evolution. What would I not give to have that ability!
By the way, at the same time he’s speaking to me, he’s probably talking to a million others.
Archangel Michael: An octave is another measure that is often used to reflect how movement takes place from one level of experience to another.
So, for example, humanity, as you have been stuck in the 3rd dimension, or in a very low octave, can think of it as the base keys or the base level of a piano keyboard. It was the lowest octave of human existence. And you have been there for a very long time.
Now you are jumping, as my sister [Gabrielle] has said, and this is being facilitated by the New You. And all of you, dear heart, have embraced and are embracing your New You. And the Tsunami of Love will amplify that.
So you are moving [up], and it is not necessarily one, two, three, four. You are leapfrogging, in many ways, to a higher octave of existence.
A higher octave of existence gives you not only access to a higher realm of dimensionality, which includes all dimensions, but a higher realm of consciousness, of heart consciousness, of expansion, and awareness of what lies beyond the bubble of human existence.
And the higher octave is what is required particularly for the full involvement and integration of humanity into galactic and inter-galactic existence. (2)
How’s that for wrapping the subject up in one go?
Do we know what lies beyond the “bubble of human existence”? The descriptions I’ve heard of that territory are general and vague statements such as these:
Master Beinsa Douno
“We think that man is on the highest rung of the evolutionary ladder, but evolution is without end. Just as there are beings that exist below man, there are Beings that exist above man as well. These Beings evolved from the universes of the past.” (3)
Master Hilarion
“Inquire of the inmost, the One, of its final secret, which it holds for you through the ages. .. When the time of learning … is reached, man is on the threshold of becoming more than man.” (4)
“When after ages of struggle and many victories the final battle is won, the final secret demanded, then you are prepared for a further path. When the final secret of the great lesson is told, in it is opened the mystery of the new way — a path which leads out of all human experience, and which is utterly beyond human perception or imagination.” (5)
Sage Franklin Merrell-Wolff
“A certain Sage…, speaking of unfolded Consciousness above the level of the highest human Adepts, said: ‘We attain glimpses of Consciousness so Transcendent, rising level upon level, that the senses fairly reel before the awe-inspiring Grandeur. Here, certainly, is space for evolution far beyond the highest possibility of man as man.'” (6)
“Truly, within the Infinite there are Mysteries within Mysteries, Deeps beyond Deeps, Grandeurs beyond Grandeurs. … Mystery of Mysteries, reaching inward and outward, but ever Beyond! And from that Beyond ever there come new whisperings of other imponderable Glories. Ah! How little is this world at the beginning of the Trail, barely a point in a Space of unlimited dimensions!” (7)
“In other words, We find no conceivable end to evolution.” (8)
It’s this vista of grandeur that Archangel Michael is undoubtedly pointing at, but we know next to nothing about it, apart from the odd bit of description we can find or coax out of the Company of Heaven (CoH) here and there.
Having just tied the matter of octaves up with a ribbon, on another occasion, he wraps up the subject of moving from intellectual knowledge (belief) to realized knowledge.
To someone with their consciousness anchored in Third Dimensionality, we know this higher consciousness as “realized knowledge.” To someone in Fifth Dimensionality, it’s just the way life is.
Here’s AAM:
“The purpose of all of our work together — and let me preface what I am saying by saying I am not trying to eliminate faith or hope or belief; but let us proceed from there — the purpose of your Ascension, of your coming into the fullness of your heart consciousness, the purpose of aligning with universal law, with Mother/Father One, is to move you, to awaken you, to shift you, however you conceive of this, from a place of belief to a place of wisdom, of knowing and of simply being, to be in the same assurance that you have when you walk out the door with your eyes wide open, that, although you are not seeing your cheekbones or your nose, they are there.
“So, the entire purpose of what you are all going through — whether you acknowledge it or believe it, doesn’t matter; it is still underway – you are shifting from a position of, ‘I believe this; I don’t believe that,’ to a simpler place — a place of simple knowing and being. And that is the beauty. That is the gift of letting go of the old Third realm.” (9)
That is a highly-suggestive and inviting way to put the Ascension process. What’s not to love about the way he summarizes grand processes?
This is the CoH mentoring us on how to make the journey we’re on and the sights we’ll see along the way.
For anyone who hears the CoH say that we’re being seen to and wonders how it’s happening, these messages that saints of old would have paid their last pence for (if they had a penny) are how.
Later we’ll hear directly from the ascended masters of this and other planets. Ramakrishna and the new Buddha and many others are getting acclimatized. I secretly think that Shankara is in form. Maitreya is in and out. Our faculty is slowly convening. And until they do, AAM, AAG and the others do that job with gusto through their messages.
