107. Your Faith and Birth of the Spirit
However, man is much more than a beast or an animal beyond comparison. He is a son or daughter of the Father. He has a survival possibility that no other living being of your planet has. It is only you that might be awakened from the death sleep. No other living being can experience resurrection. And that is being ensured by the personality gift bestowed upon you by the Father. It is this personality gift that singles you out of all the fauna throughout the planet and raises you to the height beyond reach for any other animal since you have the most developed brain and the spirit, Thought Adjuster, bestowed upon you by the Father himself. And it is these two gifts, as well as a free will, that provide you the equal possibilities to be resurrected from the death sleep. And this resurrection absolutely does not depend upon your material status, business rank, popularity, good or bad deeds performed, race, religion, intellectual development, relations within the family, and any other things except one and the only thing – faith. It is faith that determines the time of your resurrection. And if only you have faith your life changes so much that very soon you, each, begin to notice your changed attitude to the environment. And gradually you begin to see that you assess the actions of others in an ever more forgiving way.
Faith is your living relationship with the Father when your life acquires the meaning of directing all your efforts to making life better for others. It does not mean that you fawn upon others. On the contrary, if earlier you have toadied to others now that you have faith your fawning disappears because your own human animal ego begins to weaken and its place is being taken ever more by the true and divine personality ego, bestowed by the Father that has not the slightest intention of ingratiating with the human animal ego. Your divine ego is not looking for its own benefit at the cost of others even as it is neither seeking to elevate itself above all the other people by all means in order to boastingly demonstrate its activity before others.
However, it is not attempting to hide behind the backs of others either once it has a chance to manifest itself, while a chance is always being provided it is only the human animal ego that is blocking it for the divine ego to see it and use it and by this service to become stronger and ever more suppress the voice of the mind of the animal ego.
You can make your faith stronger by your prayer and live conversation with the Father. And once you will feel ever stronger the soul desire to serve others seeking no rewards, once you will have a live communion with the Father, in your own words, in your own thoughts, ever more sincerely then you shall experience your own birth of the spirit that I have mentioned before. You will still possess your present material body but the bad qualities of your character, unexpectedly to you, shall turn into the good ones. The love of the Father shall reign within you and you shall be feeling it all the time. And it is thru this love of the Father, thru the live communion with the Father and service to all that you shall see that your human animal ego has vanished as it has been replaced by the divine ego to whom suddenly all the people have turned into brethren.
And now the mutual relationships are grounded on the Father‘s love that is being really experienced. And they are improving further on since the Father‘s love is being experienced ever stronger the more of it is being given to others without any calculation. And it is only now that one desires to embrace, press against one‘s chest, and kiss every person encountered even in one‘s own city and not in a far off country. And this desire is real for it is from the very depth of the soul in which the Father‘s love has planted its living root so that a strong and living tree of the Father‘s love would grow ever stronger bearing a spiritual fruit of good deeds.
And now man perceives and even truly experiences that there is not even a shadow of fear remaining in him. He stopped to fear that after having revealed too much of himself somebody might use his sincerity against him. He does not fear any more what, earlier, has scared nothing else but his human animal ego that has considered its own self as the most important thing. Now that the divine ego has been born the most important thing is the whole, others. Therefore, there has not remained what might be hurt by others.
It is only now that even in a far off land that very same mortal feels comfortably and does not experience any fear or tension so that he would demonstrate his exceptional feelings to his compatriot that he has run into in this far away land. Now all the people have become neighbors to him irrespective of their race, religion, or language. Now the divine human ego views the ambience by the Father‘s look. He shows all exactly the same love that he experiences and receives from the Father. And such a human feels no difference between his family members, friends, classmates, colleagues, passers-by on the street any more. He radiates to all the same vibrations of the Father‘s love that he experiences within himself.
However, so far, only a few of you, throughout the world, are born of the spirit. Therefore, the behavior of even those children of the Father who are born of the spirit is restricted by your own abnormal and hostile behavior. Therefore, they have to stifle their open outbursts of their love that their souls are eager to demonstrate. It is exactly the same as the Father also limits the vibrations of His love to you, each of you, according to your, individual, desire to absorb these vibrations of His love. As to the Father it is painful once you reject His love that is being spread, poured out by Him to you so is to His children who are already born of the spirit when they cannot openly share these very vibrations of the Father‘s love not to scare you. Therefore, they have to curb their actions. However, they send these very vibrations of love to both all of you, and each of you, and all the creation by their inner radiation while you do not even see and understand it. And all this they do for your benefit, for the benefit of the whole.
And these teachings of mine that you are reading at the moment are also meant that the number of those mortals born of the spirit would increase so that you would begin to teach others that you all are brothers and sisters in spirit absolutely irrespective of where you live, what you do, what religion you profess, what race or nation you belong to, all of you are brethren. And it is only your ignorance and absence of faith that do not allow you to see this obvious thing – the Father is one to all.
And the sooner you believe it and have faith, the sooner you shall be born of the spirit and turn all the world into a blossoming garden of the Father in which, by the service of all to each other, you shall yield the spiritual fruits of the Father‘s love that you shall nourish your souls with. And it is then that you shall see that you have ceased possessing your human animal ego that now you slave and devote all your efforts and energy to so that you would build it up even bigger and by this that you would still more turn away and distance further from each other. And by getting further away from each other you are also getting further away from me even as you are getting further away from the Father who is within you since you are not searching for Him within your own selves meanwhile trying to look for Him without only.
Communion with the Father and with me is within the reach of each of you. There is not a single one who would be rejected or who would not be able to establish a relationship with me or with the Father having turned to one‘s own self and having calmed down one‘s restless mind that is meaninglessly wearing you down. And you can be certain of it only do try to calm down and talk with me or with the Father who thru His spirit, Thought Adjuster, all the same is within you all the time.
If the Father knows everything about you, even as I know everything about you, would it not be logical that you would also know about the Father and about me more than you know at the moment? Would not you desire to talk and commune with me, or with the Father, as with the living Father, and as with living me? You, each, do desire it only you do not know how to establish this living relationship so that you would be able to hear permanent teachings that would be meant for you even as they are heard by this apostle of mine, as they are heard by other mortals who sincerely aspire for this communion and who that sincerely commune. You must understand that you, each, are loved equally. And each of you has equal possibilities to commune with both me and the Father. Each of you is provided equal conditions to open up to one‘s Thought Adjuster or to my spirit, the Spirit of Truth, or to the spirit of my Partner, Mother Spirit of the Universe, that you call the Holy Spirit. But each of you has a different desire for this opening up, and even still less you strive for this opening up by considering it is not a real thing or that it is not within your reach for you are in no way any exceptional, merited, or in some particular way distinguished.
And still, even this teaching of mine is meant to sooth you and strengthen you to make this step and allow this diffidence to diffuse once you, each, who desire this, shall be able to make certain of this reachable-also-to-you experience.
Therefore, you must give up the dead dogmas and rituals that have been keeping you in their captivity already for many generations so much that they have taken away your free will to commune with the Father and with me as with living and loving persons and who are loved rather than professing dogmas that merely separate you from us and lead you further away from us. Your sincere desire expressed to us, even though very shyly, shall be heard for certain. And you shall hear both the Father and me speaking to you.
You, each, are making efforts to create a better material living for yourselves and for your own families, and you devote all your strength, all your energy, all your life to this end, and therefore you do not care for the fact that among these hard and sincere time-and-energy-consuming efforts there is no room left for a sincere conversation with the Father or with me. And you alone, only thanks to your own efforts, are treading thru your difficult and disorderly life merely wasting it in vain and without even giving a thought to it that you have wasted it. And it is very painful to both the Father and me to see you tormenting yourselves and giving everything for your material wellbeing and doing absolutely nothing for your spiritual welfare that is the essential foundation for you, the blind mortals.
There is not a single human who could swap this numerator of the existence of the creation with its denominator. You must comprehend that all the creation makes up the whole and its basis, or the numerator, is spirit. Even all the material universes, even a material
And to have this situation in dominance so that you would conceive by yourselves in what manner to manage your versatile activity you shall be receiving the teachings from both the Father and me if you are going to seek this sincerely and steadfastly. I am urging each of you to stop being idlers in a spiritual sphere and get engaged in the activity even the way you are engaged in a material activity. By this you shall help yourselves and even all the creation, you shall help your state, and all the mankind.
Spiritual efforts on the part of each of you have a tremendous impact on the rest of you. You should have already well perceived from my previous explanation that everything in the creation is interrelated and is operating as a system. And it is only upon your personal desire to get perfected spiritually that depends as to how much this creation system shall be operating more or less smoothly in relation to the manifestation of one individual within it.
You must understand that you shall not violate the system but you can turn your personal living into a volcano that shall never have peace, and therefore it shall be wasting its energy in vain without realizing that it is also bringing it closer its own end that has no path to the eternal future. Therefore, even after having lived all the life as a burning volcano all the time and having received many nice words of acknowledgement there shall be a cold emptiness within the soul that without hearing a praise to one‘s human animal ego shall submerge into even a bigger darkness and shall feel still a greater anxiety. Neither one‘s wealth nor one‘s shining environment shall be that space, invigorating one‘s soul, within which, in the state of a bliss, the soul could spread out its wings for a free-will flight in the air currents of the Father‘s love.
It is to prevent this that I am very earnestly urging you to turn to the Father indwelling you, each of you, and to start a sincere communion with Him.
