Total Release and Surrender

Zap says the Reval is in motion and close to finishing. A worldwide effort by countless thousands of people to raise an entirely new financial edifice on top of the ruins of the old is about to be consummated.

And not even the contemplation of that can surpass the enjoyment I feel from the transformed space.

Exploring it continues to hold my attention. Archangel Michael confirmed in a reading I had with him Oct. 21 that this space I have gone in and out of is what is being pointed at when talking about “going in and out of the Ascension portal.”

Steve Beckow: Now I’ve been going in and out of the transformed space, between unconscious and conscious awareness. Is that the same as going in and out of the Ascension portal?

Archangel Michael: Yes.

SB: It is. So I have been in and out of the ascension portal about 10 times?

AAM: Are you enjoying it? (1)

Even though I get that the Ascension terminology applies, I need a term that can appeal to more people and so I choose to continue calling it the “transformed space.”

My assignment is to go through the stages of Ascension along with everyone else but to do it publicly. These notes represent my journey and may or may not be useful to you.

I’ve been in the transformed space for a few hours now and I began to notice that it was possible to “anchor” it.

I immediately began what I hoped was “anchoring” – allowing it to fill every part of me and sending it down to Gaia. Doing that has allowed me to stay in the space much longer than before.

This elevated mood is the best I’ve experienced in perhaps 25-30 spiritual experiences since 1976 (my first experience). It’s loving. It’s blissful. It’s peaceful.

It’s entirely satisfying, entirely fulfilling.

Constant expansion into this space is the direction that all life goes in. Archangel Michael said in the reading just mentioned:

“You of all beings know this. This is about the journey of faith, of love, of connection, of unity back to the Mother, back to the One. It is not about anything else.” (2)

Yes, I’ve written on the purpose of life. I should know that continually-unfolding enlightenment fulfills the purpose of life – that God should meet God in a moment of our enlightenment. Life isn’t about money, sex, or power. Or anything similar. And the journey is from God to God. Nothing else finally matters.

When I allow the present energies to settle into all parts of my body, I fill with bliss. And it doesn’t impair my movement, (3) although it would disappear in a flash if I went into blame or judgment.  My mind is empty. My desires are quiet. My heart is open.

I was aided in re-entering this space by my reading this morning. I’ve been drawn to the biography of Nag Mahasaya, a great renunciate and devotee of Sri Ramakrishna’s.  When I see the extent of egolessness and purity of a truly determined seeker, I just hunger for that existence so much.

My bliss expands just thinking of it.

Then the thought arises: Why can’t I live that way in the city? Surely that would be the challenge of these times. An urban renunciate.

A quiet mind. A life of service.  And a heart that’s open to all alike. How that calls to me.

[Seven hours later.]

I’ve had wonderful conversations today coming from the transformed space, which itself has lasted now quite a few hours.  It shows no evidence of flagging or fading.

In this space, I’m humorous and sympathetic, honest and blissful.

This is either the Seventh-Dimensional “Higher Self” or the true Self, the Christ, the Atman that the saints and sages talk about…. I don’t know which.

In this process, a lot depends on me receiving and accepting the energy. Often I think I’m open when I’m not.

I’m again, as I was thirty-five years ago in the Communication Workshop, glowing like a lightbulb.

All I want to do in this space is meditate.

[A day later]

I see that the rise of the transformed space is intimately connected with conscious breathing. It’s as if conscious breathing has the power to hook up to the transformed space and pull it in.

Here I am the following day again in this wonderful space and this time it happened through the use of the breath.

I know this is my original Self. But I only know it intellectually and experientially. I haven’t got it up to realized knowledge.

[Many hours later.]

I am awash in love. My mood is stable. I’m not going up or down. My mind is still. My heart is wide open.

Again the draw is to meditate, to contemplate the sacred, to be still and just experience being myself.

There is a drift to these matters of consciousness, a tidal pull.  And the tidal pull here is to total release and surrender.

[Hours later again.]

At some point I’ll have to make the switch of allegiance from the reality and consciousness of everyday life to those of the transformed space. That is such a delicate moment and  transformation. It has to be a moment of total truth. At that moment I will have lit the pilot light. But any gust of ego will extinguish it.

The amount to which I yearn for it, hunger for it will provide me with the motivation to make the leap. It used to be that we had to want it more than life itself.

But now the banquet is set and the invitations have gone out to all of us.
