The Wisdom Channel - Our Higher God Mind

12/31/2013

1 Comment

 

"How do you know? Why do you say?" They ask me as I declare something to be even though I have no physical proof or reason of knowing that can be seen.

My reply came to be "I get the Wisdom Channel." And although it might sound like I was referring to something on TV, I was not. I instead found a way to raise my frequency to a much higher level of thought than I ever knew could be. And the more I attuned to it, the clearer my reception and perception of it came to be.

The following is an excerpt of another's explanation of different levels of consciousness. I highlight here, the ideas that really caught my ear, the description of this which I so often experience, the "Wisdom Channel" frequency. This place is truly a state of Grace and means more than anything in the world to me. Once one truly becomes conscious of it he will desire no less than total union with this "Eye of God" which sees and knows everything. As Jesus Christ said again and again, blessed are the ones whom have ears to hear and eyes to see.

- Debra Clemente

The wisdom mind... is the field of supreme consciousness.  It is the center of bliss; the realm of the Word; the region of the Divine Life stream of the Holy Nahd; the home of the Christ Substance overshadowng each  individual.The Wisdom Mind is a heritage of every individual: the mind which is the God-mind of the individual – his own portion of the Universal Divine Mind of God.

The Wisdom Mind of each man, called the Adi-budha, extends above his superconscious and embraces his divine Monad; it is that mind which becomes the seat of wisdom permeating his mental aura.  It is the field of the supreme consciousness of man – an estate of rare quality of which he is almost completely ignorant. It is the seat of supreme bliss, the realm of the Word, the field of the Christ Substance, the region of Divinity overshadowing each individual.  Adi means supreme, budha interprets to mean wisdom.Adi-budha is in possession of pure truth while all other aspects of the mind are hampered by their imprisonment of the obscurity of life in the physical form. Even the superconscious, an intermediate force operating between the waking conscious and the Wisdom Mind, is tinged with the ignorance, the maya, the illusion of physical life.

Man can no more deny the presence of the Higher Mind than he could deny the presence of animal devotion, even though the animal cannot say the words, “I love you.” The qualities of the Higher Mind are there, but must be perceived by the normal consciousness through Intuitive perceptions. Man must know the love of God just as he must know the love of the animal.

This knowing we call intuition. The rare flashes of communication between the normal mind and the Adi-budha result in our inspiration, our visions, our intuitive discernments, our moments of genius.,. more, rarely yet, the spiritual ecstasies the mystics experi-ence when the veils of consciousness are momentarily parted.

Every mystic, every genius, every scientist, every inventor is aware of temporary penetrations of his consciousness by the Wisdom Mind, He is aware of the action of intuition which darts like a lightning flash piercing his ignorance with knowledge, with understanding and with mental power.

The light of this superior consciousness must act within narrow limits; must subdue and adapt its force to the normal mind substance of the individual; must modify or diminish its dynamo until the original divine luminosity becomes the quality of inspiration rather than pure wisdom. Still the receiver, the mystic, is quite aware of the source of his revelatory vision or his intuitive perception.

One road to attainment of this superior estate lies through the practice of meditation, the inward movement of the mind in constant and ceaseless effort to pierce the web between his external and his super-Self. Breaking this consciousness barrier causes a double action of the cosmic forces of consciousness an upward sweeping of the normal mind into the immutable status beyond and embracing the universal and, at the same time, a descent of light and bliss which, pouring into the lower consciousness, illumines its mental energies.

Only the mystic who has experienced this union of consciousness can be truly aware of the existing gulf between his potential wisdom and his everyday mental level. And yet, the disciple also becomes aware that his higher mind seems to be a reservoir of truth, and that he need not go from his present environment to find the whole of it. He need only unite consciously with his Oversoul in order to find the hidden secrets of the universe.

Receiving the downpour of Wisdom, he is aware of an automatic and spontaneous knowledge flowing in from the higher mind. He is aware of a difference in the process of thinking. There is no need for speculation or for attempting to find answers — the answers are simply there, for the Wisdom Mind is in possession of full truth, remitting vast degrees of knowledge in a single moment. The mystic is aware of the stream of knowledge – energy pouring in like a ray of sunshine, bringing with it true vision, true thinking and true feeling which, for want of a better word, we call intuition,

In this expanded state of awareness the mystic is conscious of the presence of the Adi-budha lying above his normal consciousness like great outspread wings of light. He is aware that the veil of the superconscious, which usually hides the Wisdom from him, has parted.

The mystic is aware, then, of the presence of not only the superconscious but the Wisdom consciousness that lies above it — the seat of the supreme cosmic power of which the superconscious is only an ambassador. The mystic realizes that the superconscious is only an intermediate force between the waking conscious mind and the seat of the wisdom Mind,  acting as a protective screen to shield the waking conscious  from an unbearable light;  for indeed,  the conscious mind is engulfed in a darkness which could not receive the direct
impact of the supreme light, except as it pours down through the shield of the superconscious.

.The Difference between the Wisdom Mind and the superconsciousness is that in the field of the Wisdom there is supreme all-knowing truth existing without any method of thought or action. The superconscious, being subject to the world of Maya, or illusion, is aware of the essential truth of things but must attempt to make this truth operable in the world of matter; must find some method of production, some means of taking the absolute truth and making it amenable to the narrow concepts of the conscious mind.

It must find some process of transforming the dynamic power of the Wisdom light so that it will illumine and not destroy the limited field of the conscious mind. It must, in other words, convert the Wisdom into the ignorance, the light into the darkness, releasing only that portion of Wisdom that the conscious mind can contain.

In our separative normal consciousness, for example, all religions, all philosophies, all political theories exist as opposites. Each of these opposites claims to possess that which is right, to be superior in all ways. Each blames the other with falsehood. Each feels a destiny to destroy the other so that its own truth might survive. Each claims to be in exclusive possession of the true path.

The light of the superconscious, if permitted to pierce the ignorance, would refute this claim to exclusiveness. Reflecting the light of the Wisdom Mind, it would permeate the conscious mind with the knowledge that all are necessary to the whole, and it would assign each to its field of endeavor in order to fulfill its rightful place and attain its own realization.

The superconscious, being in some possession of truth, would destroy the concept that all is false except one’s own affirmations. But the superconscious, being only a delegate of the Wisdom, cannot cause a change in the concepts of the conscious mind. Only a down pouring of the bliss from the Wisdom Mind, only an attunement with the stream of the divine Word pouring down from Adi-budha, can bring an immediate dissolution of the ignorance and darkness, and a complete surrender to truth and right understanding.

Thus we can say that the conscious mind is the mind of ignorance, of illusion. The super conscious is the possessor of partial truth, harmony and knowledge, the “Home” of the waking conscious, the subconscious, and the causal force field. The Wisdom Mind is the possessor of pure wisdom, bliss and delight…the Word not yet made manifest in the world of form, the place of the hidden Mysteries where the divinity of the individual resides, reposing in splendid patience awaiting the Becoming of the transient soul.

It is “the Father which art in heaven” of which the soul — groping its way through the depths of Maya, the world of form and matter — is so completely unaware. When he attains the ultimate awareness, man will no longer be “a god in ruins.” He will no longer beg alms from a universe of which he is master and king.

Christmas Preparations

12/18/2013

0 Comments

 
“Are you ready for Christmas?” The world keeps saying. But the world hardly knows the meaning that the idea of Christmas holds for me. Yes, I am ready for Christmas for I stay awake and ready for God’s Love to be birthed in me. Christmas does not come only one time a year, for within my heart Christmas is always here. I receive the gifts, the gifts the Holy Spirit brings. And I am thankful that I know that this Holy One lives in me.

I am being refined as I keep God and all God’s good on my mind. I do not wander away. I still myself and listen to what God has to say. So there is nothing to get ready for, I am prepared, I am aware. There is nothing I need to do of my own accord to make this Love of God my truth, but allow it to be, allow God’s Love to wash over and through me. And with this Holy Water, I am refreshed, made anew. The joy that was promised becomes me and floods my being with peace.

I am coming to think that the word “pagan” in today’s terms would be equal to the idea of the “worldly.”

Pagan :Anything that is not God begot, that one gives reverence too.

Well, if that is so then most of the traditions we so solemnly keep as our Christmas theme, are actually pagan concepts that we have bought into, as what we are to think, to believe.

Yes, the world tells you what to do but really it is a bunch of hullabaloo. In worldly terms, the whole idea of inviting God’s Love into one’s heart, the true intent of Christmas has become taboo.

The world plays upon the idea of the “Christmas present” as something one must purchase or do, to be “in the spirit” of things. But the true spirit of Christmas is above and beyond all that. It is not about going there or doing that. It is about stillness in fact. It is about the silent night, the holy night, and a star so bright. It is about wishing upon that star with all your might that the Savior may be born unto your heart. That is why every heart must prepare Him room. That is the Christmas preparations all must do.

The Silence

12/5/2013

“Music is the silence between the notes.” Claude DeBussy

"Listen" 22" x 28" oil painting by Debra Clemente
We have forgotten the silence. We have forgotten what it is, what is natural and true. We have forgotten to listen for the silence. We have forgotten to pause, take rests, take breaths. Instead we hold our breath in fear, unable to release our hold on even the air God gives us, not trusting more is there waiting in the silence, in the stillness of the clear.

God is this breath of silence. God is the pause between the breaths. God is the rest. The rest we are to take comfort in, and immerse ourselves within.

We have forgotten God exists and that we exist within Him, within the vastness of this eternal presence He is. What He is, we are. But we have forgotten. We have forgotten to pause and pray, to have moments of silence throughout our day. So we don’t hear the music that plays in our ears, the sounds of God, the Silence that says “I am here. Walk not in fear, for I am with you eternally. Call on Me. Be still and know, I am.  Take rest. Take a deep breath. Breath into Me. Breath into all the fullness of Life you can be. I am here. Hear clear, the Silence that is.”

Worth Repeating

12/3/2013

The following are excerpts from the recently published EVANGELII GAUDIUM an APOSTOLIC EXHORTATION OF THE HOLY FATHER FRANCIS that I believe are worth repeating.

"Worth Repeating" 48" x 36" oil painting by Debra Clemente
The joy of The gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus. Those who accept this offer of salvation are set free from sin, sorrow, inner emptiness and loneliness. With Christ joy is constantly born anew.
I invite all Christians, everywhere, at this very moment, to a renewed personal encounter with Jesus Christ, or at least an openness to letting him encounter them; I ask all of you to do this unfailingly each day. No one should think that this invitation is not meant for him or her, since “no one is excluded from the joy brought by the Lord”. The Lord does not disappoint those who take this risk; whenever we take a step towards Jesus, we come to realize that he is already there, waiting for us with open arms. Now is the time to say to Jesus: “Lord, I have let myself be deceived; in a thousand ways I have shunned your love, yet here I am once more, to renew my covenant with you. I need you. Save me once again, Lord, take me once more into your redeeming embrace”. How good it feels to come back to him whenever we are lost! Let me say this once more: God never tires of forgiving us; we are the ones who tire of seeking his mercy.
Jesus himself “rejoiced in the Holy Spirit” (Lk 10:21). His message brings us joy: “I have said these things to you, so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete” (Jn 15:11). Our Christian joy drinks of the wellspring of his brimming heart. He promises his disciples: “You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy” (Jn 16:20). He then goes on to say: “But I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you” (Jn 16:22).
I never tire of repeating those words of Benedict XVI which take us to the very heart of the Gospel: “Being a Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction”.
Thanks solely to this encounter – or renewed encounter – with God’s love, which blossoms into an enriching friendship, we are liberated from our narrowness and self-absorption. We become fully human when we become more than human, when we let God bring us beyond ourselves in order to attain the fullest truth of our being. Here we find the source and inspiration of all our efforts at evangelization. For if we have received the love which restores meaning to our lives, how can we fail to share that love with others?
A renewal of preaching can offer believers, as well as the lukewarm and the non-practicing, new joy in the faith and fruitfulness in the work of evangelization. The heart of its message will always be the same: the God who revealed his immense love in the crucified and risen Christ. God constantly renews his faithful ones, whatever their age: “They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not be faint” (Is 40:31). Christ is the “eternal Gospel” (Rev 14:6); he “is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Heb 13:8), yet his riches and beauty are inexhaustible. He is for ever young and a constant source of newness. The Church never fails to be amazed at “the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God” (Rom 11:33). Saint John of the Cross says that “the thicket of God’s wisdom and knowledge is so deep and so broad that the soul, however much it has come to know of it, can always penetrate deeper within it”. Or as Saint Irenaeus writes: “By his coming, Christ brought with him all newness”. With this newness he is always able to renew our lives and our communities,and even if the Christian message has known periods of darkness and ecclesial weakness, it will never grow old. Jesus can also break through the dull categories with which we would enclose him and he constantly amazes us by his divine creativity. Whenever we make the effort to return to the source and to recover the original freshness of the Gospel, new avenues arise, new paths of creativity open up, with different forms of expression, more eloquent signs and words with new meaning for today’s world. Every form of authentic evangelization is always “new”.
All revealed truths derive from the same divine source and are to be believed with the same faith, yet some of them are more important for giving direct expression to the heart of the Gospel. In this basic core, what shines forth is the beauty of the saving love of God made manifest in Jesus Christ who died and rose from the dead.
Moreover, pastors and the lay faithful who accompany their brothers and sisters in faith or on a journey of openness to God must always remember what the Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches quite clearly: “Imputability and responsibility for an action can be diminished or even nullified by ignorance, inadvertence, duress, fear, habit, inordinate attachments, and other psychological or social factors”. Consequently, without detracting from the evangelical ideal, they need to accompany with mercy and patience the eventual stages of personal growth as these progressively occur.  I want to remind priests that the confessional must not be a torture chamber but rather an encounter with the Lord’s mercy which spurs us on to do our best. A small step, in the midst of great human limitations, can be more pleasing to God than a life which appears outwardly in order but moves through the day without confronting great difficulties. Everyone needs to be touched by the comfort and attraction of God’s saving love, which is mysteriously at work in each person, above and beyond their faults and failings.
