The Metamorphic Awakening

The Metamorphic Awakening

 

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

John 1:1

As the building truth grows more magnificent, my soul is overwhelmed by the perfection. Truth forms the constructs of soul that enable oneness with the divine consciousness. Thus, the frameworks of truth reflect the incredible and integrated handiwork of the Creator.

As understanding deepens and expands construct by construct, the ability to perceive overall truth increases. This depth of perception strengthens the beliefs those truths convey, and as beliefs strengthen and expand it causes changes in the soul’s reality, as belief is the creative force of the consciousness. This deepening understanding and strengthening belief takes the soul out of the mirage of the unreal and into the real by means of a metamorphic awakening.

Below are seven fundamental phases of the soul’s metamorphosis into an expressive divine soul state. These seven phases entail the entrance of the divine consciousness into the corruptible mortal reality and clothing it in incorruptible immortality from the inside out.

1. Completion of the Inner Temple

As the soul reaches the zenith of its path to enlightenment in the mortal realm, its divine soul structure (the temple of the Spirit of God) located in its sacred inner chamber is ready to manifest its expression into creation.

Through the soul’s journey, the Spirit of Truth constructed the divine constructs of truth that shaped the soul’s ability to give and receive divine love. As the soul’s understanding of divine truth expanded so did its understanding and desire to divinely love; for divine truth shapes divine love. In this awareness, the soul possesses an all-consuming desire to divinely love all of Creation all the time; for this is the Creator’s heart. Knowing it can’t achieve one drop of this love on its own, the soul begins a final letting go of all it has known and been as a self-willed personality that it may rest as an open gate to the divine consciousness, which can accomplish this desire. The soul’s entire journey has been for the establishment of an inner sacred temple (the constructs of truth that give rise to the divine soul), which the divine consciousness can fill and govern to give the soul and all it touches divine love.

2. Death of the False Self

Once the temple is complete, the soul bows down all it is to the sovereign will of its Creator. In this act of divine desire, faith, trust, and gratitude the hand of God severs the soul from its false self once and for all. And the soul enters a very deep rest (death) as its self-will becomes completely forsaken. The soul’s self-determined consciousness shuts down and all is surrendered to the Spirit.

This temporary personality of self provided the medium that shaped the understanding necessary for the complete formation of a divine self. When its purpose is complete, by grace the soul sheds this false self. The self-made mind, which created a dark shadow of separation from its Source, dissipates with the incoming eternal Living Light.

At this death, the soul is completely emptied to prepare it for the filling of the divine consciousness. Upon experiencing its death, the soul lays between the dark void of what was and what is to come. It becomes entombed in silence and stillness. In this deep acquiescence, the comforts of the Creator begin to fill its soul and it senses that this is the beginning of its birth.

3. Birth of the Divine Self

As the soul surrenders to the demise of its false self, words of life fall upon its ears breaking the silence. As layers of its self-directed reality begin to fall away, the manifestations of the inner temple of the divine soul prepare to come forth. Through a restful state of soul, moment by moment the soul’s consciousness shifts (thus its reality), as the divine consciousness begins to take over its conscious awareness; the place the self-will had reigned.

The divine consciousness begins to flow into the inner temple of the soul. As it moves through the soul, it manifests a divine reality around the soul; a reality that will continue to expand for all eternity. The first touch of the divine reality is the divine breath of life moving through and back into the soul, which is a divine love exchange.

The inner divine soul begins to consume the outer (self-created) soul personality. As the two become one, the divine consciousness fills all.

“For the Lord has created a new thing in the earth— A wo-man shall encompass a man.” Jeremiah 31:22

4. Divine Soul Growth

As the soul transitions into the light from within out, it grows by the nourishment of the Spirit from within, and by its desires, which are now divine (the land of milk and honey). No longer does the soul grow by striving, toiling, suffering and pain, but by the will of the Spirit of God moving through it as its desires.

The soul abides in a child-like trust and rests as the divine consciousness shapes every aspect of its reality in an ever-expanding immortal harmony. Instead of grasping for riches of life, the abundant life of eternity blooms in and around the soul.

5. The Divine Consciousness Expands into All

As the soul expands by the workings of the divine consciousness flowing through its being, the divine consciousness fills all of creation. (The divine consciousness was always governing the creation, but the corrupted mind of the self-directed consciousness hid his workmanship from the soul. And in the soul’s corruption of judgments and self-direction manifested a soul state of separation thus suffering.)

What the Spirit of Truth shaped inwardly in the inner chamber finally finds an outward expression through the soul and everything the soul perceives, thus all of creation. This expression transitions all of creation into the living light of the Creator. As one soul personality encounters this light in another soul personality, it is consumed and transformed by it, thus the divine consciousness spreads throughout Creation.

6. Regeneration

All of creation, every pixel, begins to reverberate at the soul’s awakening. Creation ceases to bear the resemblance of the self-determined consciousness that produced its entropic state. Instead, it takes on the vibrational life force of the divine consciousness. Though the divine consciousness was always governing creation, the creation, while perceived by the self-directed will, was contained within a dream-state. In this awakening, each aspect of creation awakens by the energy of the divine consciousness, thus transitions into the living light energy of eternity; divine photons.

Like the individual cells in a body, each holding their own consciousness, every quark of creation begins to be governed by the divine consciousness. In this, a visible immortal harmony begins to form. As the soul gazes upon its reality, the present moment begins to reveal the presence (presents) of the Creator. Each moment becomes a divine present moment filled with divine attributes.

7. Oneness

This temporal reality is built on entropy and order. It’s a dream within the eternal. The entropy reflects the chaotic self-determined consciousness that is like a continuously disorganized warehouse. The order reflects the divine consciousness that supersedes everything and is like a perpetually organized warehouse containing all individual conscious expression. The order in randomness reveals that the human soul isn’t in charge, the Creator is. The perception of the perfection of truth supersedes the soul’s ability to perceive it. Yet, the soul can know that this perfection exists by the marked perfection in this world of seeming randomness. The illusion of randomness imprisoned the self-directed mind and created a false sense of separation from perfection.

When everything the soul perceives in its reality (including its own personality) is filled with the harmonious attributes of divine consciousness, then it sees God all in all. In this light, oneness is revealed within all of creation. And the “Word” (divine consciousness) becomes clothed with an immortal creation in an inseparable oneness.

And the Word became ALL flesh.

The Final Letting Go

The Final Letting Go

 

At the end of the soul’s journey through the wilderness, there is nothing left for the soul to hold onto. It lets go of everything with a divine trust, and in this letting go ushers in oneness.

The little soul has sought diligently through the wasteland. Though it has found unspeakable treasures of soul, they lay dormant until it’s awakened from its dream-state consciousness; an awakening brought by grace alone. In all its awareness of divine truth and love, it recognizes it can do nothing of itself. Just when it reaches the zenith of its understanding, it is consumed with the awareness of its deteriorating state as a self-directed soul. It loses its grasp on the final remnants of its self-directed personality. Every aspect of its self-directed manifestations is but of the shadow of death that will fade with the rising sun; thus the soul clings to nothing and faces an unparalleled emptiness.

What remains is a divine trust in the divine love (inherent in the oneness the soul has always possessed with the Creator), that will awaken it in the new day. Reaching this soul state, the soul knows it has come to its end. For in it, its seeking ceases and the soul lies down in rest.

In this final letting go, the little soul completely releases all it has been. It controls nothing and wills nothing; as the Spirit has removed it of all its self-determination. All that lingers is the ethereal divine desire, gratitude, faith and trust that assures the soul that all is in the Creator’s hand because it always has been. In this, it enters a soul state of complete surrender to its Creator. Every soul element, thought, aspect of its being and spirit bows down in complete acquiescence. As all the soul once was comes to an end, it feels like “death”. But this death is a death to death. It’s the death that ushers in everlasting life. At what moment this awakening will occur the soul cannot know for it isn’t the soul’s to manifest, but the divine consciousness that has governed the soul from the beginning.

All the highs and lows, all the victories and defeats, all the lessons taught and gained, lead to the final dissolution of the soul’s self-determined consciousness. Lying in its tomb, the soul rests in silence. It has walked its journey and has done what it was purposed to do. Now it waits for the inner rising son.

As it lies down in a seeming defeat, it knows defeat is impossible in oneness. It knows the only true defeat is the defeat of its self-directed will. Thus it rests in absolute trust that the words of life will awaken it to life everlasting; a sublime oneness where the shadow of death is no more.

In this silence, the soul embraces the insurmountable truth;

Be still – and KNOW – I AM – God.
