In the Gospel of Thomas, saying 50,
we have a remarkable catechism in which Jesus tells his followers how to answer
various questions which might be posed to them:
Who are you?
We are
the children of the Living Father.
Where did you come from?
We came
from the light, the place where the light came into being by itself.
What is the evidence of God within you?
It is movement and it is rest.
The second answer is quite interesting--we
came from the light, the place where the light came into being by itself. This
appears to refer to the spiritual light which the seeker has entered. Here is
the place of self-generating light.
This answers the schoolboy's question:
"Who made God?" Answer: This is a category mistake, a kind of fallacy
in which one mixes things of a different type as though they were the same. In
this case, while mankind is finite and limited, God is infinite and unbounded.
Any question which would assume what is true in the finite must be true in the
infinite is an error in thinking. In fact, because God is infinite, the rules
of causality or the laws of cause-and-effect do not apply to God as they might
to a human being. So who made God? Because God is infinite and exists
simultaneously in many dimensions at once, God is self-generating and thus
nothing made God.
The Immortal unites with the Living Father
through union with the resurrected Jesus. This higher level of being or
immortal consciousness is activated as the consciousness shifts
from brain-centered consciousness (the default mode for human beings) to
God-centered consciousness. This implies that the transpersonal consciousness
which is outside the brain has been activated. This shift will activate all the other chakras connected to the body along with a strong connection to the heart chakra.
My approach to shifting to the immortal
consciousness is the direct path: Just do it! Being an Immortal is a
one-step process: Activate the light consciousness--the place where light
came into being by itself!
