Please review the tip from Day 1, and then come back and read this tip.
Conscience, Consciousness and God’s Will:
Conscience is the knowing within that encourages us to choose the highest vibration available. Conscience knows that lower vibrations lead to suffering and higher vibrations lead to freedom.
Today’s reading refers to “Christ” and “Son of God,” which are synonymous. They are religious terms for consciousness. When today’s reading says that John the Baptist was “not yet fully the Christ,” it means that conscience points towards consciousness, but the vibration of pure consciousness is higher than the vibration of conscience.
As pointed out on Day 1, spiritual intuition is higher than conscience. That’s because spiritual intuition is the knowingness of pure consciousness. We reach spiritual intuition by following conscience and by desiring truth realization. Only following conscience is not enough to awaken spiritual intuition. The desire for truth must also be present.
Today’s reading also refers to “God’s Will.” In truth, God has no will. God, as life-awareness, simply is. “God’s Will” is a symbol. It represents truth. It is also used to symbolize our desire to realize truth.
Let’s look at the Four Principles of God using the terms from today’s reading:
First Principle of God – Pure, unmanifest, life-awareness. There is no “will” in this principle, but the term “God’s Will” is a symbol for this principle.
Second Principle of God – Consciousness, Son of God, Christ.
Third Principle of God – The creative principle.
Fourth Principle of God – Manifestation. Conscience operates at this level. It is an intuitive mechanism that can reduce suffering in humans and raise their vibrational level.
Distraction and Specialness:
Yesterday’s reading pointed out two ways we can raise our vibration: willingness and being grateful for willingness. Today’s reading points out two ways we maintain a lower vibration:
- Distraction – Being completely outward-focused and forgetting to pay attention within for the highest vibrational option.
- Specialness – Thinking you are different from other people.
Whenever you notice you have become distracted, simply remember your willingness, and then turn to intuition to find the highest vibration available to you in the moment. Surrender to that vibrational option as guidance.
Whenever you notice that you feel special (different from other people), remember the exercise that we did with molding clay on Day 48. Jesus was a temporary form made from clay. Clay was the essence of Jesus. Clay was a symbol for consciousness. Just as the essence of Jesus was consciousness, your essence is consciousness. There is no difference between you and Jesus. Since the essence of everyone is consciousness, there are no special people. Everyone is the same, regardless of appearance, vibration, knowledge or behavior.
