13 steps to Paradise

I have been asked (or commissioned) by The Ascended Masters of The White Brotherhood for Planet Earth (see "Who Are The Spiritual Hierarchy?") to put together a program which will see that greater numbers of people will make it into the New Golden Age than are currently expected to make it. The percentage of humans on the Earth at this time who will be able to withstand the much higher frequency of energies at the level to which this planet is moving in a short period of time is very small, and 1% would be an excessively optimistic estimate.

The Masters and Guides of the Human Race have indicated that They are beyond disappointed that those numbers are so small after centuries and centuries of effort on their part to awaken Humanity from its eons of slumbering in the mundane illusion. They have repeatedly incarnated and walked amongst us as the greatest teachers the planet has known, only to be ignored, mocked, and ridiculed and imprisoned, tortured, and slaughtered for their altruistic, compassionate efforts. The Human Race has steadfastly remained mired in a level of consciousness which is incompatible with the level at which this planet will express once the Dimensional Shift has been entirely completed (please look at "The Dimensional Shift of Earth").

The Earth has been at Third Density Level of Reality for 3.2 billion years and is presently on the verge of shifting into the lowermost Dimension of Fourth Density, which is being called the Aquarian Age of Peace and Harmony. Should a human being be forced into that higher level without adequate preparation, it would be too excruciatingly painful for them to exist there, and that is why the Higher Self (or Soul) of each one will remove those who have chosen not to evolve to a higher consciousness, and that removal will be called "death" as the physical body is left behind.

In the period remaining, there is ample time for preparing oneself to be able to remain with the Earth and to move with Her into Fourth Density wherein are learned the lessons of Love. The Dimensional Transformation and all of the Earth Changes have been postponed more than once (from the originally-planned timing in the latter part of the 20th Century) as The Masters have realized that so few humans were going to be able to continue on with the planet after the time/space nexus of the ending of Third Density Reality. The Source which spoke through Edgar Cayce had it all happening during the years of 1958 to 1998 A.D. Then many High Sources of wisdom and spiritual teachings had given the year of 2012 A.D. as the beginning of the New Age on Earth, but it has been delayed even further because of the reason given above -- inadequate number of humans capable of remaining.

It should be said that the postponements will not be made indefinitely, because it has put the entire galaxy of billions of other sentient civilizations on hold in their evolutionary thrust of return to The One Infinite Creator. All of the other Races in this galaxy have made the shift to the next higher level of expression along with The Galactic Being Itself, and this planet is the last and final one to do so. They await and watch the developements here, but this planet and its poorly-evolving Humankind will not be allowed much more time to make its Transition. Those who decline to raise their vibratory nature (and consciousness) will be provided with other Third Density Planetary Spheres to continue their incarnational cycles and lessons but will necessarily be removed from this planet.

Update:   As of December 2010 I was informed that The Planetary Logos of this planet and its Spiritual Hierarchy had made the decision to cancel the postponement and move the Tribulation Period and the Dimensional Shift back closer to the 2012 time-frame because the Dark Forces have made great strides in advancing their agenda here and that the attempt to get greater numbers of humans to a higher vibrational level of being will probably not be worth the losses that were being incurred with regards to Humanity. I was told that the Dark Brotherhood had successfully subverted and reversed many of the plans and programs of The Hierarchy and that far greater numbers of people were siding with the service-to-self polarity (Dark) than with those who serve others (Light). The World Changing Transmutational Shift will not be as far off now as had been planned, and it was intuitively sensed by the channel of the message (my friend, Greg) that the end point for the Piscean Age would probably be 15 to 20 years past 2012 A.D., and that will be preceded by the Tribulation Period of 7 Years.

The following criteria will be the determination of whether or not a person will be able to exist comfortably in the more refined and elevated energies of the Aquarian Age in Fourth Density, and, in fact, they will be essential to that graduation.

1. A more expanded awareness and consciousness of extra-mundane matters, which automatically raises one's frequency of being.

2. A balancing and increased open-ness of all the major chakras in the Aetheric Body of the individual.

3. A centeredness of expression in the Anahata Chakra (Heart Center) by comparison with the vast majority of Humanity, centered in the lower 3 chakras.

4. A strong polarization toward the service-to-others polarity (also called the positive polarity of existence or The Light Forces) by comparison with those who serve the self, either consciously or unconsciously (the negative polarity or Dark Forces).

5. A more open channel to the Higher Self, the Source of one's beingness (called the Soul, the Atman, and the I Am Presence).

So, the 13 Steps toward that Paradise which will reign on the Earth for a very long time are methods and tools which will precisely bring about those criteria above that are essential to delightedly finding oneself in the Golden Age of Love without conditions and Peace without end. These steps are not all-comprehensive, and there are other ways as well for achieving the goals, but if followed consistently and persistently, these 13 Steps should turn into the Stairway to Heaven on Earth.

I. Elimination of All Fear!

I believe that this is the most important one of all. The energy of fear and the emotion of fear is the greatest contributor to the lowering of one's frequency of being. In fact, when in a state of fear and all of its associated emotional states, one is at the lowest state of being. Every single one of the many negative emotions is based upon fear of one thing or another, every single one. Such emotions as grief, sadness, anger, greed, hatred, despondency, depression, self-pity, jealousy, and anxiety are all based upon fear.

It is fear that drags down the Race along with its self-serving interests, and for this reason it is fear that is promoted by the Dark Forces in many ways throughout the world in order to hold the numbers of those who can graduate down to a minimum, because those who serve the self oppose the agendas of those who serve others (The White Brotherhood). The never-ending wars of cruelty and bloodshed, the group rivalries and hatreds, the clash of religions, the slaughter of millions in purges of bloodlust are all instigated by the Dark Ones as promotional campaigns for fear (and very successfully, I might add). Unwittingly, all of the news media serve the interests of those who use fear to dominate and control and enslave.

But there is a countermeasure to the all-pervasive promotion of fear. All of the emotions are under the control of the mind and the will. The personality chooses the emotion that is going to be expressed, so simply choose not to express or even feel any of the negative emotions which are based on fear. All information, all events, all interactions are entirely neutral, and each person chooses first of all if there is to be an emotional response to them and secondly what that emotional response will be. The personality is in charge of all emotions, not the other way around. No one is ever forced to have an emotion. They are all chosen by the personality, so choose the emotions based on love rather than the emotions based on fear.

This is really an important matter, because fear in the Emotional Body, whether conscious or subconscious, will absolutely hold down the frequency of one's being at a level too low to make the Shift. Many times, those fears are hidden away as negative programs in the subconscious -- from traumas in previous lives or beliefs implanted during childhood by unknowing parents or teachers, etc. Consequently, the Emotional Body needs healing in most people whether they realize it or not.

The Manipura Chakra (Solar Plexus) is directly connected with the Emotional Body at the Aetheric Level, and so a hands-on type of healing can be directed at and focused on that chakra. Visualization of the cleansing and balancing and opening of that chakra can be done. If the person has some inkling or suspicion of what the negative subconscious program is, there is a technique for consciously getting rid of that program as taught by Hilarion (Lord of the Fifth Ray).

Create a 2-line poem that rhymes and states the opposite sentiment to that negative program that is playing over and over in the subconscious. Make that poem a positive affirmation, avoiding any negative words like no and not and don't and won't. At sunrise and sunset, repeat the poem aloud 21 times for 2 weeks. By that time, the subconscious will have begun to pick it up and will be repeating it, eventually replacing the negative program with the new positive one, and the fear will be removed. The subconscious loves a rhyme and remembers it more easily. Continue the vocal repetitions until you feel that the old program is gone.

Much can be written about fear, but I didn't want to lose the interest of the reader by going into too much detail. Fear may be the greatest stumbling block to progress for the Race called Mankind, and it will have no part to play in the emotional expression of those who find that they have landed in Paradise.

II. Anahata Chakra Centeredness

This one will be a necessity for making the Leap. One can simply make the choice to be expressing, in their interactions with all other life-forms (not just humans), from the heart. There is no expectancy of anything in return, and all of the following are aspects of the love impulse which moves out from the Anahata Chakra: kindness, caring, empathy, respect, gentleness, generosity, helpfulness, compassion, and a desire to give and keep on giving. The energy of love from the Soul flows into and through the 4th Chakra, what is called the Heart Center, and the more often and consistently and intentionally that is allowed and expressed, the more that the Heart Center is vivified and radiantly opened. It follows that, over time, the centeredness of expression will have been raised from the Solar Plexus Chakra below the diaphragm up to the love-suffused Anahata Chakra above the diaphragm, and The Christ will have been born in the cave of the heart.

This is the only planet of emotional expression in the galaxy. All the other sentient civilizations develope and evolve by means of the intellect, the Mental Body of being. In the New Age, the radiance of the unconditional love being emitted from this planet will influence many of the other Galactic Races to such an extent that they will begin incorporating emotions into their beingness, which is the intention and plan of The Galactic Being as impressed from yet Higher Levels. Through collectively being centered in the Heart Chakra, the Race of Humanity will have demonstrated the value of having emotions in the triangle of being, and the Galaxy and the Universe will then go on to express more love through the sentient beings who incarnate upon the Playgrounds of Creation.

III. Meditation

This is no manual for learning how to meditate. There are many teachers and books on the subject. I want to give the primary reason for meditating and its relevancy to the matters at hand. When that silence has been entered and all the workings and chatter of the lower mind of the personality have been turned off, that is when an opening appears and a channel of communication is established with the Higher Self. In that silence is It then able to reach its incarnate personality.

Initially, that channel or bridge (of Antahkarana) is briefly opened but for a short time, however, over time if consistently pursued, that channel is opened more frequently and for longer periods of time, and that is one of the principle goals not only for making the Shift but for life itself. One's true purpose in life will be revealed; guidance in all things will be provided by the Source of oneself; and true wisdom will flow from that Source. There will be a less-obstructed flow of the life-force energies into the Aetheric Body and then to the physical, and one's vibrational rate will be raised as a consequence.

IV. The Violet Flame

This transmutational tool can be very beneficial to the goals stated in this piece. Basically, this is the use of the energies of the Seventh Ray for Planet Earth in the form of a flame, and The One Who is called Saint Germain (Chohan of the 7th Ray) transforms that Seventh Ray Aspect of The Creator through His Consciousness for the benefit of all Humanity. It's use will be very prominent in the Era soon to come.

I recommend using and visualizing this Violet Flame at sunrise and sunset. In your "mind's eye", see It surrounding you and rising up through your body into the air around you. See It as clearly as you can and hold the visualization for as long as you can (for minutes). At the outset of the visualization, you must invoke this transformational force to you, and I use the following invocation: "I invoke the Violet Flame. I invoke the Violet Flame. I invoke the Violet Flame to permeate my being, to cleanse and purify and transmute all levels of myself".

This will cleanse and balance all the subtle bodies and can also help to eradicate negative subconscious programs in the Mental Body (where they reside).

V. Spinning

This is a technique for activating and balancing and increasing the flow of life-force energy through the major chakras. For those who have aetheric sight (through the Third Eye), it appears that the chakras are spinning, increasingly over time. The longer that this is practiced, the more activated the chakras become, and eventually they remain so.

Before starting the practice, check intuitively with the body to see if there are any health reasons why it should not be done. Start off slowly and build gradually, e.g. 3-5 spins at a time. Hold your right thumb out at eye level and spin clockwise, keeping your eyes on your thumb. When you finish, place your palms together and place your feet at shoulder width apart. Keep your eyes closed and continue the sensation of spinning a while longer.

Work up to 33 spins at a time. The subconscious attraction to the benefits from spinning can be seen in children at play, certain carnival rides, Tibetan Rejuvenation Rites, and the meditative techniques of the Sufis, the mystics of Islam. By increasing the flow of life-force energy through the major chakras, the frequency of one's being is elevated.

VI. Reading Spiritual Literature

This exercise will begin to expand one's awareness and, in turn, one's consciousness which is included in the goals. It focuses the attention on the more important matters of the Spirit and away from the less important, worldly matters of the Material Realm. It may trigger the personality to step onto the intended path that was planned before the incarnation. The more informed the person is about spiritual matters, the less likely that fear will be allowed to enter in.

VII. Diet

It will be a prerequisite to have a strictly vegetarian diet to be able to transition into the New Age, generally speaking. Once at the Higher Level on Earth, nevermore will the innocent animals be slaughtered for the flesh on their bodies, and nevermore will they have to fear humans for the sake of their lives. Once more there will be rapport and harmony and beautiful communications between animals and humans.

There is a heavy karmic burden upon those who raise animals for slaughter and those who work in the meat-packing industry. For those who eat the meat, which is infused with the rush of terror and desperation of the animal being slaughtered, the karma which they incur is usually worked out through physical illnesses and disease states, weakness and decrepitude, premature aging, and early death (earlier than would have occurred had not meat been eaten).

As taught by Hilarion, the liver has the capability of recycling all of the body's protein once that function has been re-awakened after the loads of concentrated protein have been stopped. For the average, heavy meat-eater in the industrialized countries of the world, a 12 to 18 month transition period is recommended to achieve a totally vegetarian diet, and the details may be gotten in the teachings of Hilarion found in the publications of Marcus Books. Once weaned from all sources of meat, the protein requirement is the equivalent of 6-8 peanuts per day and gotten from plant sources alone.

The meat-packers have deceived the world into believing that the body requires large amounts of animal protein, but it is a lie promoted by greed for money. The tens of millions of Brahmins in India are totally vegetarian in their diet and yet are as strong and healthy as any group of people. The strongest animals on the Earth eat only grasses, leaves, shoots, and grains, and their biochemistry and physiology differs little from that of humans. These include the ox, the water buffalo, the elk, the moose, the horse, the bull, and the elephant. Once eating from solely the Plant Kingdom, humans will know better health, vigor, karma, longevity, and higher frequency of being.

Fasting is suggested for 2 or 3 days every few months to eliminate the accumulated toxins by way of the lymphatic system, and a fruit-juice fast is recommended for those who have fasted little in life. The need for water increases as one's vibrational rate increases. Things to avoid include coffee, vinegar (acetic acid), refined sugar, and oil fried foods. Once into Fourth Density a ways, the food requirements will modify, and humans will go from vegetarian to fruitarian to requiring fruit juices only, and finally they will get their energy requirements solely from the Sun (The Solar Logos).

VIII. Gifts from the Plant Kingdom

A. Wildflowers (discussed in "Wildflowers" from Marcus Books, channeled from Lord Hilarion)

Gerardia -- releases the Astral Body from fear, worry, and anxiety.

Aster -- aids in adjusting to the higher frequencies of the New Age and helps to make the Shift and Transition.

Ox-eyed Daisy -- capability of opening the Wisdom Chakra at the Crown to allow direct knowing of truth.

Black-eyed Susan -- can open the Heart Chakra immeasurably to express the Christ Love.

B. Flower Essences

Bo -- stimulates the process toward enlightenment, removes chakra blockages, and stimulates the Crown Chakra.

Rosemary -- stimulates the Third Eye and the Crown Chakra and produces a state of inner peace and ecstacy.

Sunflower -- stimulates the Kundalini, opens the major chakras, and balances the yin and yang aspects within.

Lotus -- profoundly powerful, aligns all the chakras, meridians, and subtle bodies, and opens the Crown Chakra.

IX. Laughter

Keep laughing all the way through the Changes and the Tribulation (lest you cry your way through). Laughter isn't just good medicine for the body, but it is also an antidote to fear and a natural high. It produces a temporary increase in frequency of being, which, over time, will become a more lasting elevation of frequency. Bring more humor and more laughter into your life. All of The High Initiates and Ascended Masters of The Spiritual Hierarchy have very evolved senses of humor, which derives from the Joy-permeated state that characterizes Their Being.

X. Exercise

It should be appropriate to one's physical condition and done on a regular, consistent basis. It is not only good for maintaining a healthier body, but it can calm the Emotional Body and lift the Mental Body by improving the outlook. A component to exercise which is overlooked and unknown to the sciences of the Third Density is that the faster respiratory rate draws the aetheric counterpart of air into the lungs of the Aetheric Body, which is the template for the physical body. That aetheric counterpart of air contains the life-force energy which is called prana. The increased intake of prana into the Aetheric Body increases vitality and endurance. While there is a higher flow rate of life-force energy flowing through the meridians and chakras, the frequency of being is higher.

XI. Body Work

Although the different ways of working with the human body initially impact the physical and Aetheric bodies, the effects reach into the other levels of one's being, such as the Emotional and Mental Bodies, and a regular program of body work should be considered a valuable component of directing one's efforts toward making it into the Aquarian Age. Chakras and meridians can be beneficially influenced if not functioning optimally.

I give just a few examples of systems and methods that can be adopted:

Yoga
Massage
Reiki
Tai Chi
Acupressure -- including Reflexology
Acupuncture
XII. Music

This art form, when used in the right way, can and does provide a temporary upliftment not only to one's spirit but vibrational rate as well. Of course, using self-discernment, only those musical forms and pieces that truly nourish and inspire and bring happiness should be allowed into one's life, and they should be listened to or sung or played on a regular basis, repetitively and frequently, for a more lasting and permanent elevation of the frequency of being. Numerous composers and musical compositions have been inspired from Higher Levels of Consciousness to offer those gifts to the Race of Man, and these can be used to approach closer to that Dawn of Everlasting Peace and Tranquility.

XIII. Chakra Balancing

This is also an important component to the program, and there are very few humans who have all of their major chakras fully functioning and opened to the life-force energy from Source and balanced in their activity with respect to each other. There are very few people who do not need some work and some help in this regard (a better understanding of the chakras may be found in "A Basic Primer On The Chakras").

Such methods can be used as the following: visualizations, meditations, hands-on work by healers, spinning, flower essences, and gemstone elixirs. The balancing should be worked from the lower to the higher chakras, and care must be taken not to force the kundalini to rise without the supervision of a master teacher. It will rise naturally in the process of chakra vivification in an ascending fashion (premature, artificial arousal of the kundalini fire may lead to serious physical and mental problems). The openness of the major chakras leads to a higher frequency of self which aids in establishing a clearer channel to the Higher Self which, in turn, brings about a higher consciousness. And that assures passage into the New Golden Age on Earth.

Closing Comment:

I offer this path and this program on behalf of The Guides and Guardians of the Human Race Who consider it critical that more humans wake up from their slumbering and set out on a course that will improve their chances for making the Dimensional Shift into the higher level of expression that is being called the New Age on Earth (in the sign of Aquarius). The nobler fraction of Humanity will be separated from the vast majority of the rest in a wrenching experience that will be felt forever in the Collective Unconscious of the Race, and the loving Benefactors of Mankind wish to minimize the numbers of souls who will be forced to repeat their eons of incarnations elsewhere at the Third Density Level of Reality.

The Era that is coming and that is approaching the horizon of human experience will be the most beautiful and harmonious and enlightened period in this planet's history, and that is reason enough for wanting to transition with the Earth and participate in the experiment of Unconditional Love for all of God's Creation (see "The New Golden Age on Earth"). The time of choosing has come, and a course has been laid out for the attainment of the goal, and I offer encouragement to stay that course on behalf of The World Teacher Who radiates Christ Love to all of Humanity, The One known as Kuthumi.
