Teachers: Sondjah Melchizedek and Rayson (TR Daniel)

RAYSON: Good afternoon, this is Rayson. (Group greetings.) It is a pleasure
to be here once again. Our group is blessed by the presence of Sondjah, the
Melchizedek from the mansion worlds, and he will continue the lesson that
he began last time. When he is finished, I will be glad to address the
group and answer any questions you may have.

SONDJAH: Good afternoon, this is Sondjah. (Group welcomes him.) It is a
pleasure to be here with you. Since the last time I was here, I have
learned more about your ways, your language, your culture and your world.
It makes it easier to relate the following subject to you. You recall that
I discussed with you the “Spectrum of Consciousness,” that it is
non-empirical, it borders upon the eternal as you are able to contact your
Thought Adjuster, and through your Thought Adjuster, the First Source and
Center?

I tried to describe this spectrum of consciousness to you without being
overly descriptive, to lead you into contemplation of this topic, to help
your minds distill the lesson and raise your conjecture about what it was I
was speaking to you about. We will fast-forward today to describe to you
the experiences of the spectrum of consciousness as it was probably
experienced and as we have reviewed the records of your Creator, Christ
Michael, who was here as Jesus. You recall that Christ Michael for his
seventh bestowal subjected himself to mortality. This is not unlike death
for you, though in comparison it is much more horrific, we assume, than
your experience with death. As you make your transition from mortality to
your morontial life, you enter into consciousness with a repository from
your mortal experience, and this will be revealed to you slowly as you are
able to grasp the lessons and the classes and the schools that you engage.
These revelations for you, for your own life as a mortal will be triggered
by your teaching/learning experiences, yes even as you discuss your lives
in your private social settings with other students and teachers in what
you would call “outside” the classroom environments. Yet, your Creator,
Christ Michael came into consciousness exactly as you did, without
self-awareness, without consciousness, with no history of thought before
the time of [his] birth. He grew as you grew, in your infancy, your
childhood, your older childhood/adolescence, and young adulthood and
eventually into full adulthood. He developed consciousness as you do. (Pause.)

I pause because many of you forget the life-living developmental,
evolutionary expansion of self-hood in your Creator, when you think of him
compared to yourself. He was fortunate to have been raised in an era, in a
culture without television, without radio, Play Stations, games, movie
theaters, and such. He had time for stillness—stillness that was encouraged
early on in his life, from the time of infancy through his early childhood.
He attended the synagogue and later the temple. You too can go to your
“synagogue” and eventually your “temple” because this is where you achieve
and begin to grasp who you are, or even more immediately, that you are.

Your early French philosopher, Descartes said, “I think, therefore I am,”
yet my friends, that is simply the tip of the iceberg, proportionately
smaller than the awareness of who you are and who you are becoming. Jesus
began to explore himself as you do, and without too many distractions; and
if you, my friends, were you in a similar culture with your education and
your budding awareness of yourself, you too could reach great heights of
consciousness in your life as he did. Your “synagogue” is your stillness.
Your “temple” is your conscious awareness that your consciousness is part
of the eternal spectrum of consciousness of the First Source and Center.
Few of you ever go to this “temple”—we urge you to, it is available to you.

Jesus began to become aware slowly of who he was. He first began with the
awareness that he was the son of Joseph and Mary—he gained identity through
others, just as you do. He learned in his synagogue classes that he had a
relationship with another Father, Yahweh, God the Creator, and this caused
him to ponder and think about this relationship. He was not challenged in
his culture as you are. It was a “given” that each individual had a
relationship with the Divine, albeit through sacrifice and atonement for
the deficiencies of perfection, suffered by mortality in that era. Their
relationship was apart from the Creator. Fortunately for you, Jesus, Christ
Michael, removed that impediment from you so that you have a direct
relationship with God, without need of sacrifices to atone for your sins.

Christ Michael’s consciousness with the divine grew. He began to become
aware of who he truly was and why he was on this planet. You should ponder
this too. His consciousness grew. His consciousness grew as a mortal as
yours does, but eventually to encompass his consciousness as the Creator of
Nebadon. His consciousness grew to encompass his bestowal, the purposes of
that bestowal, and the work that he was to do while he was here.

My friends, one day I will meet you on the mansion worlds, and it is my
dearest hope, after delivering this message to you today that you will
ponder these questions long before you ever arrive in my classroom. To
ponder these questions for yourself, and yes, you may not be able to answer
them all, but we anticipate that you will ponder them, and we request of
you and we urge you to examine your intention for doing so, for that is the
most important motivating factor for the full expansion of your
consciousness in the long era of your infinite existence. It is surely not
too early to examine why you are here, what you are doing here, what you
can do, and the importance of that, and how this will influence your
infinite career of ascension. [Short pause.]

(It is good to thirst, is it not? [TR needed a water break.] Thirst for
that which is pure and clean and good, for it refreshes your soul, cleanses
your mind, and energizes your being.)

Pondering these questions, you must surely then ponder why the First Source
and Center would bring mortality into existence in the universe, and why
you would have an infinitely long journey of ascension to Paradise to be
with the Creator, and there reside in the corps of finality waiting for the
eventual completion of the Grand Universe. Why? Simply said,
(chuckling)…well, I do not have an answer for that, but we wish you to
ponder this, to anticipate this journey, to be eager to explore this
adventure, to eagerly look forward to each new step, and yes, to expand and
reach out with your consciousness to that which you have not engaged yet.
How is this possible? I told you, described this to you in the last
session, and it is simply this, that when you still yourself and are in
your consciousness, you can extend that consciousness to almost any part of
the existent universe—even to the borders of eternity. Your consciousness
is not limited to this moment now. You recall that I told you that it is
non-dimensional, non-empirical, non-temporal. Your consciousness is much
like your fingertips going through a cataloguing system—what subject do you
want to examine? What location? What era? It is possible to do this, but
only through the development of your skills of consciousness.

“Skills of consciousness”: For you, these skills are most difficult to
apply and to use well; it is inherent in your mortality. You are literally
physical captives of this planet. Only through your mind and its training
and its clarity can you explore the dimensions of consciousness. You know
from prior discussions by numerous teachers that there are species who
[are] inherently…I would not use the word “flawed”…but limited by the mind
mechanism that you possess. This mind mechanism is greatly influenced by
your DNA structures, by diseases, by mental aberrations, which you have
received through your birth, received from your parents and the lineage of
your kind. The true limitation in your mind inquiries into consciousness is
the ability to ascertain whether what you hear, see and feel are really
truly existent, or whether they are truly a part of your imagination, a
wandering mind. Now this whole topic and subject is not unrelated to your
spiritual development; it is not unrelated to the stillness; it is not
unrelated to the clarity of your emotions; and surely it is not unrelated
to your clarity in your social relationships and particularly your
relationship with yourself.

You must have by now thought, “I am so different from Jesus in this
capacity, that surely, I have none of this ability.” You do have some of
these abilities, but there is almost no one to train you. The beginning
begins with seeking the center, seeking clarity, clarity in your
relationship to yourself, who you are, what you are, why you are, why you
are here, and your relationship to others. In your world population of
approximately six billion people, how many people approach—even to some
degree—the capacity of Jesus for self-consciousness, for the extension of
consciousness into their environment around them, which includes more than
your four dimensions? We perceive that there are less than two thousand on
your planet, who have this capacity—rare individuals! And what would this
look like? If you were in Christ Michael’s mind, if you assumed capacity of
his mind, what would that look like?

First of all, his perceptions and consciousness were multi-dimensional.
During his era as a teacher, after his baptism (when fusion would have
occurred,) his capacity for knowing, for extending his consciousness around
him to know that which was around him, was immense. When you can perceive a
mind that is capable of interaction with others, interaction with self,
interaction with Thought Adjuster, angels, for communication with his
celestial brethren, his staff, with his God, you begin to understand what a
spectrum of consciousness is about. Walking down a path, he comes upon an
individual who he knows has a closed mind, and he utters not revelation and
insight to this man but passes by. The individual who was attending with
Jesus queried him and asked, “Why did you not advise him, teach him?” and
Jesus said—in so many words—that he had a closed mind.

What would it be like, my friends, for you to have an insight of the
intentions of the individuals around you, whether that was immediately
approximate to you, or at many miles across the earth? And what would it be
like in the spectrum of consciousness to be aware of events that would
occur days, weeks, months and years to come? This is all part of the
spectrum of consciousness. This is not magic. This is not contrived. This
is not outside the capacity for mindal development—even your mind.

For your protection, there are blocks, limits, circuits that are not
connected in your mind that prevent you from these accesses—and why?—in
order for you to develop your own consciousness, your awareness of
yourself. Would you have any business knowing what others intend if you do
not know your own intentions for your life? Would you be privy to what
would occur in the future if you were not able to control your own
decisions in this moment? You are protected from yourself. You are
protected from others, and others are protected from you. Mastery of
consciousness begins right here, with you, right now, in your mind. It
begins by being mindful, of being in the presence of the Creator each
moment. It begins by being aware that you are special, to know that you,
too, are in the spectrum of consciousness of your Creator, each moment, and
that Creator cares about you and urges you on only to the best of your
development. If you had a developed mind as this, farther down the spectrum
of consciousness, you would need to protect yourself from your own-minded
exploration of your universe, to the distraction of your growth. This is
called “focus,” applying your awareness to where you can make a difference.

Yes, there are some on your planet of varying degrees of awareness. Their
consciousness is able to move further along the spectrum than others. Some
are spiritually minded and know that their life is part of the intimate
journey of ascension to perfection. Some are unaware of a spiritual nature
of this ability. They are neither special nor selected. They are not
oddities, but exceptions to the average development of mortals on your
planet. How they use this ability, how they use these abilities is totally
up to them. Some develop these abilities and some do not; some cultivate
them so their awareness expands, and some do not. They are neither better
than nor worse than anyone else. It is not a value judgment against them or
for them —neither a qualitative advantage or not—they simply have skills
that others do not. As with all skills, you can practice them and develop
them. If you have an awareness of skills as these, you can develop them.
TRing is such a skill. Many of you can do this, but many do not wish to
try. Some of you have the capacity, the ability to be aware of things that
will come to pass in minutes or hours ahead. This neither makes these
people better or worse than anyone else.

There is a certainty to this spectrum and that is that when you strive to
engage your consciousness with the eternal consciousness, you have begun
the conscious participation in your journey towards the First Source and
Center. When Jesus came here, was among you, and said, “All these things I
do, you can do as well,” he truly meant that. The limitations you feel
about yourself and your abilities are owned by you when you accept them and
say that you have limitations. You have seen individuals who are devout of
other religions from the East and from the West, who have practiced these
mystical skills—you can too. And to what purpose? The purpose that we urge
you to try is to encourage you to grow, to be engaged in your universe, to
know that you are already part of that spectrum of consciousness.

I will retire from the topic now and give way to your friend and mine,
Rayson, who will address any questions that you may have. Thank you for
this time. (Thank you!)

RAYSON: This is Rayson. Has this caused you any consternation or questions
that you would like to ask?

Student: If, as you described, some of the people who have a highly
advanced consciousness, it seems that that sort of advancement would lead
directly to an understanding of the religious aspects or the cosmic reality
of the Father and the teachers.

RAYSON: You are correct. Isn’t it such an anomaly that even those with that
capacity would yawn and say, “So what?” You have reflected too upon those
individuals on worlds that are settled in light and life, who yawn and do
not engage their “known” journey! It is not understandable to us why
individuals, who know the larger realities of the universe, would
consciously choose not to engage that. Do you have any idea? And my
question is not rhetorical, and it is not insincere.

Students: That is one to ponder! (Certainly.)

Another student: Maybe it has to do with time; you know time weighs heavy
on the mortal in this world, sometimes we try to fill up the time with
“doing” instead of “thinking or being”—I don’t know, it just crossed my mind.

RAYSON: You asked a question?

Student: Oh, I thought you asked a question—you said that you wanted our
suggestions of why maybe a highly conscious person or even somebody that
knows what’s going on does not spend more time in consciousness—in God
consciousness.

RAYSON: Thank you, yes. The time element of a limited life is a concern for
some, that they enjoy the limitations of mortality and can be
irresponsible, knowing the outcome and laughing in the face of
death—eternal death. Is that chutzpah or eternal foolishness? Who knows!

Student: Rayson, last time Sondjah talked about the DNA of our mindal
development being corrupted and that our race memory recorded in our DNA is
corrupted by the violence that we see around us. He mentioned that we need
to validate statements of consciousness—I’m not quite sure if I understand
what he meant by that. If our minds are corrupted and ineffectual, then how
can we validate these statements?

RAYSON: You can validate them by your conscious development of your mind.
It begins by knowing and reaffirming the truths that you now know about
your relationship to the eternal. It begins by saying that “I AM one with
the Eternal; I AM part of the Eternal; I AM on a journey of infinite
duration to perfection. There is perfection potential within me that I can
develop and grow through my conscious awareness.” And that is the point of
those statements, that you can consciously overcome many of your mindal
deficiencies through the conscious development of your mind, [by the use of
your will].

This is rewriteable—DNA and race memory is rewriteable. You can do this for
your own life; you have self-will that is sovereign—ultimately sovereign.
Your limitations are temporary, now and in the duration of your infinite
ascension. Accepting those limitations, you are then limited. When you do
not accept them, then you can overcome them and rewrite your life’s journey
and its development. Yes, there are limitations—ultimate limitations for
your mindal development and the primary requisite is that you have a mind
that has capacity for knowing itself. That begins by having a Thought
Adjuster resident in your mind. Through your Thought Adjuster’s influence
and energetic participation, you can rewrite your race memory for your
life, and in doing so, through the transfer of your DNA, and through your
energetic participation in this race now—even though you are past the years
of procreation—you make a positive contribution to your race memory. Race
memory is energetic, it is written in your DNA, but it is primarily
energetic and it is shared around the globe with everyone. Does this help?

Student: Yes, it helps a lot! I hadn’t caught that our DNA could be
rewritten. If we don’t deal with those changes while we are still mortals,
do those DNA problems, the corrupted parts, go with us to the mansion
world—is that part of the energetic body?

RAYSON: They only go with you as to the extent of your energetic memory;
your DNA record does not transfer with you. The record “of your behaviors”
and your limitations go forward. I know this must sound confusing, but it
is much like scanning in documents into a document file and then taking
that with you. The documents, which are your actual DNA, will remain here;
any deficits in the record will be transferred with you. These will be
challenges for you to overcome in your morontial experiences.

Student: That’s very interesting; thank you.

RAYSON: Your thoughtful question is appreciated.

Student: Your answer was so thorough I don’t have to ask the rest of my
questions.

RAYSON: We are pleased that the energetic presence of the group has
expanded. You have attracted many to your forum here, and this will
continue. It is developmental, and as it develops you will see more faces,
more minds, more presence here. We are pleased with the progress that each
of you are making—each of you as individuals is making. You are being
mindful of the decisions you make about what you think, in fact, and this
leads to much progress in your life, in your soul growth and in how you
live. It is a challenge for you to overcome limitations in your thinking;
it is a challenge to expand your thinking in ways that are positive, that
are exploratory, that are adventuresome. These challenge your ability to
feel settled, to feel stable, to feel “one” with everyone else. Yet you are
born unique, you are each an exception in your commonplace, ordinary union
with others.

You make decisions about your life and your life to come; you make
decisions about who you will become by making them today. You can augment
this immensely by clearly declaring your intentions for your mind, for your
life, for your soul growth, and for your journey. We wish you to do this
thoughtfully, carefully. You do not have to wait until you make your
transition to make these decisions effective in your life. Much growth is
available to you now. Though you may feel you have great limitations in
your mind, we advise you that you have immense potential yet unexplored. We
wish you well in your thoughtfulness of Sondjah’s messages; we wish you
well in this life. We look forward to our next meeting—soon. Good day.
(Group gives thanks.)
