I’ve shared with you, as we’ve gone along, how I’ve had puzzling experiences.
One, that should have been seventh-chakra enlightenment (Brahmajnana or God Realization) might as well have been a movie because it lacked the bliss that would have elevated and expanded it into a realization.
Whooosh! A brilliant river of gold passed over my eyes as I lay there and disappeared in the crown chakra. And I was unmoved. No bliss! Who turned off the tap?
I later had a discussion of the experience with Michael, which is very interesting unto itself but long. I’ve located it to Footnote 1.
And you’ve heard me discuss another, similar incident with the Divine Mother and her saying, Ooooh yes, otherwise, you’d leave your soul contract behind, go off to the mountains, and say, “I do not need to do this. I will just simply sit in the bliss of love and good luck, everybody!’” (2)
Or Michael saying outright that many of us would return home and that would be that. (3) No, our experiences as lightworkers can and probably will have boundaries set on them so we don’t burst the body and leave. Excuse me. Have a heart attack.
Spiritual teachers have always measured or metered out enlightenment experiences so that the devotee does not drop dead from the energy. But we’re not students. We’re not looking for a guru or serving our personal enlightenment.
We’re not bhakti yogis, lovers of God, lightbearers, this lifetime. Well, wait a minute. Who is not a lover of God?
It’s just that we’ve agreed to put that aside as a preoccupation and serve. Hindus call that karma yoga, the yoga of service, another route to God.
We don’t have to concern ourselves with anything but service this lifetime, which translates into serving the will of the Mother/Father One, however that shows up in our heart-infused consciousness. (4)
We can be God-intoxicated but it doesn’t work well with serving others. We’ll tip the tray.
Apparently, this generation is from the angelic kingdom but also may reside in the dimensional world. (5) So, for instance, I say I’m from Arcturus. I don’t say I’m from the angelic kingdom.
But I’m getting off track. This is all fascinating! I’m learning too!
I was texting Amanda Lamond this morning and she shared with me an excerpt from one of her channelings of the Council of Light. Well, whaddya know? It was on the truncation of enlightenment or spiritual experiences.
I’d like to share that with you and get it on the public record.
The Council of Light through Amanda Lamond, Jan. 2023.
You are aware at some levels of consciousness already that this is a “healing” or “upgrading phase” you are in now, learning to hold the higher vibrations that you feel in waves through your body!
Yes, we share your delight as you discover rapture, awe, wonder, bliss and expansion into the higher dimensions. Of course it feels like coming home! It is. But you are well aware you need to be there and, thus, as you already know, the experiences are somewhat truncated so that you can anchor them.
Don’t think this is a “punishment” or “restriction” or “limitation” like we are only letting you eat a tiny crumb of the cake! No, dear one, it is simply that you would not be able to function in your current life were we to allow the fullest ascension process to take place now.
Although you may yearn for increased time in the higher dimensions, you are not yet ready, energetically, for extended sojourns. So think of it as the greatest loving way we have of letting you enter paradise in a way that won’t have you be conked out, disassociated, and unable to function!
Thank you, Amanda! That’s very helpful in filling in gaps in the discussion. I think it an important one becausde other lightworkers may also be experiencing spiritual episodes which seem strangely lacking in some way….!
I also feel increased confidence seeing a second discussion. I’m not crazy. Someone else had the same experience!
Footnotes
(1) Steve: [Emptiness of mind] was followed next by what appeared to be the kundalini completing its circuit at the seventh chakra. Is that in fact what happened?
Archangel Michael: Yes. Now it is part of the reset button. Think of it in this way. If you are installing, say, a new program, or you had an old program that kept stalling out three quarters of the way full and you were frustrated as all get out with it. And you are asking for the fullness of the program to come online so you turn off your computer and you restart it.
That is what you did.
Steve: Interesting! Ordinarily you would experience Brahmajnana [God Realization] at that point but I felt that it had been muted, toned down.
AAM: When you use the term “dramatic enlightenment experiences” [as I did earlier], you are talking about Nirvana. You are talking about the unity of all with One.
It is not to say that you will not experience that, but you cannot (well, you can if you wish; it is a choice to) simply remain in that state of unity, of One, or be fully conscious, [and be] in service, in action….
So, it is a toning down, if anything. It really is the middle ground. …
You know that enlightenment is right there in front of you. It is yours to access. But if you are in service, you will not choose to live there. …
You can think of it as keeping two feet firmly on the ground. (Archangel Michael in a personal reading with Steve Beckow through Linda Dillon, Feb. 14, 2012.) (Hereafter AAM.)
(2) Here is that discussion:
Steve: The experience at Xenia, Mother, was that truncated?
Divine Mother: Slightly, yes.
Steve: I had the thought [it was]. … The Light I saw should have been brighter than a thousand suns. The fact that it wasn’t suggests to me that the experience was truncated. …
DM: It was not is brilliant as possible, let us put it that way.
Steve: Alright… And again, the reason is to keep me in sync with my readers?
DM: To keep you in sync with your readers. But let me be very clear…. If you had seen the light as it actually is – yes, a million, billion suns – you would have simply departed. … We don’t mean die but you would have departed the life that you have designed – yes, with us – for yourself, for the service you are providing – you would have departed and simply said, ‘I do not need to do this. I will just simply sit in the bliss of love and good luck, everybody!’” (Divine Mother in a personal reading with Steve Beckow through Linda Dillon, Oct. 26, 2018.)
(3) As he says here:
Archangel Michael: You have received several upgrades in terms of what you would think of as your levels of enlightenment. So it is not that those adjustments have been absent. But let us also say that right now if you were to complete your full ascension, many of you would not bother to stay and finish the creation of Nova Earth.
Steve: So you really have to meter it out to us, so to speak, so as not to send us flying off into some other pursuit?
AAM: That is correct.
Steve: But we will have enough to do the job, enough smarts, enough heart…
AAM: Think of it as growing every day. Then you are given more responsibility, more allowance, and more cooperation. You begin to fully see us and engage with us. Many of the Masters return. So that you’re given all that you need to expand like a flower blossoming. (AAM, March 10, 2017.)
