Matthew as a young man
I’m researching an article on the continuum, the term Matthew Ward uses for the higher realms, and came across the discussion I repost here.
He makes clear why past-life bleedthrough may occur more in this lifetime than in others and discusses the simultaneity of lifetimes in “the continuum.”
Notice at the end he makes a point that I’ve made. Having two versions of it helps.
“The high vibrations of the Golden Age … are of love, peace, harmony and respect for all of Nature. … We cannot imagine that anyone could be dissatisfied in that idyllic environment.”
That’s the way he puts it. The way I’ve put it is that, in the experience of transformative love and bliss we find ourselves in in the higher dimensions, the thought of harming another would never arise. Therefore the world would work for everyone (peace and harmony) since no one would have any thought of harming another.
From Matthew’s Message, April 9, 2009, at httpss://www.matthewbooks.com/april-9-2009/
I have combined and summarized readers’ comments and questions that relate to temporal situations. We are told to live “in the now,” but to learn from experience, don’t we need to keep the past in our “present” thoughts, and isn’t it practical to plan for the future so we can be proactive rather than let the chips fall where they may? If we are supposed to visualize a better world so we can manifest it, but the “Golden Age” already has been created, how can what we do now affect it?
Because the cellular memory embedded in your DNA is constructed with the concept of linear time, that is your only frame of reference for what your history has recorded and what you have experienced to date, what is going on in your life and your world in this moment, and looking ahead to the outcome of plans. In a recent message, we spoke about the altering of DNA to “dumb down” Earth humankind, and programming the cells with aging, death and linear time was part of that. Until your cellular memory is restored to its original state, which is being accomplished via light absorption, it has no capacity to comprehend the universal continuum, where everything that ever was, IS.
The best explanation we can offer is this: In the continuum, what you think of as past, this moment and the future actually is a series of events that you are creating with your every thought, feeling and action; and what is termed “reincarnation” is a soul’s multiple lifetimes that are occurring simultaneously. That is why some people can “remember” another lifetime, why experiences in other lifetimes can affect this one, and why your present choices can and do influence other lifetimes.
You did understand this when you chose in your most recent pre-birth agreement to participate in Earth’s transition into the Golden Age. It was exactly this understanding that motivated many billions of souls to ask to reincarnate so they could contribute the strengths of their composite experiencing. Those who were chosen to become part of the master plan were certain that in this Earth lifetime, their thoughts and feelings would lead to actions that would help wind up third density on the planet and usher in the Golden Age.
Nevertheless, in their great wisdom, the master planners anticipated that once confronted by the difficulties of actual physical experiencing, some people would courageously adhere to their soul contracts by following their intuition, instincts and inspirations; and others would falter due to closing their minds, which would prevent the consciousness-raising they had felt in spirit they would achieve when embodied. That is why the master plan includes other civilizations’ help in many different ways to assist Earth humankind who instinctively are following their soul contracts to create the better world of their visions.
At this stage of your consciousness-raising, linear time still is firmly in place, but how you use it can change. For instance, learning from past experiences need not be a matter of keeping them in the forefront of your thoughts so you can avoid foolhardy decisions; this can be an automatic reaction that is wiser than the previous reaction to a similar situation. Always, following your intuition—the immediate reaction to any situation that is presented—is far more to your advantage than analyzing which of your previous experiences is most applicable to the new situation.
Since we are the ones creating the “Golden Age” by our thoughts, etc., and there are so many different cultures, ideas and beliefs, how can you be so sure that everyone will be satisfied?
We are sure not only because we see that world from our vantage point, but we visit there! For further assurance, we also say that only those who absorb the light can physically survive in the high vibrations of the Golden Age, and those vibrations are of love, peace, harmony and respect for all of Nature. Although we cannot imagine that anyone could be dissatisfied in that idyllic environment, we suggest that this writer and any who share his interests read about life in that world.
