25.9.2005- DESIRE! Greetings. I am beautifully linked and shall speak in this link because… we wish you to know, that every moment that you yearn to be one with us, that every moment that you long to join with us, we too long; for that portion of self, for that portion of us, that you call you, to be All That Is.
How do we convey it to you, for your words do not permit. But this longing, that you view through your desires, is inextricably bound, with the impetus to BE; the divine desire to BE. It is your universal life force, vitality, the movement within it, so that I maybe all That I Am.
So do not even for a moment consider, that it is only you who desires. How can that be, if you have truly understood that (whom you call) 'you' and 'I' are one. Then our quest is as one, always moment to moment. We are one dearest beloveds, we are one, not in some distant dispassionate realm, but in the here and now. Can water be without its wetness? Can your sunlight be without its warmth?
Do not fear your desires. Do not allow them to confuse and confound you. Because in the larger picture, what you view with such suspicion and such mistrust, is but an aspect, an expression of the divine desire to BE. It is you, who adds to it judgment of good and bad. It is you who adds to this longing, notions of pain and pleasure. But our longing is only Being. You have no words to describe this BEING. We use words like 'doing', we use words like 'experiencing'; We tell you that 'I experience' to be all that I am, because there are no other words. But being is beyond doing, beyond experience, beyond good and bad, and pain and pleasure. There is a certain stillness in Being, all That I (already) Am.
We wish that these words, that this backdrop, allows you to better embrace your desires. We wish that these words that this backdrop, helps you to better understand what you call free will. We prefer to call it freedom of individuated will, a small but subtle difference, because in the larger picture, what you call free-will, is an expression, an aspect of this Divine Will to Be. Come now, some of you are confused, but it is time to go beyond, the obvious explanation...
Ellaeenah: You have spoken that all our desires are the desires of the one desire itself and yet ancient wisdom tells us that the whole path of the spiritual journey is the mastering or the overcoming of desire. This paradox is ...
Come now, all of you are spiritual adults! Seek to go beyond the obvious explanations! It is not so much a question of “Is there free will or not?” “Must there be desire, must there not”. Truth is not to be found in yes and no answers. So of course, there is in your terms, freedom of will; but its deeper implication is its tango with divine will– the perfect unison- whereby ‘your’ free will and its larger divine will, align in perfect harmony. Whereby both are one and the same, and yet to you seemingly independent! Thus does free will and divine will ‘work’ in perfect tandem in your realm: through your so-called desires! Listen if you will at the master plan of divine intelligence that pervades all desire: In what you call the ’beginning’, which we would prefer to call 'before the beginning', a paradox, so that you may intuitively understand, that there is no beginning. But we must speak in linear terms, so in the beginning, yes, I , the One I , Divine, God , whatever the term you choose, chooses to BE (more than to experience) chooses to BE all That I Am. Every potential, every probability, every possibility, every nuance. Your minds cannot even reach there. And I become my own myriad focuses, each focus, what you will thereafter call each 'one', willfully choosing to view, express, experience, expand, contribute to, an aspect of That Whole, That I am. This is how individuation and its free-will, the way you understand it to be, arises. When the larger Divine God focus, becomes, narrower and narrower as higher selves, souls, current selves. And this Divine Desire to BE is narrowed to each individuations desires, your desires, in your current life. Yes? These are always in alignment, part of the desire of the larger that it is but a focus of…what you would call part of...
Now, what happens, when in this larger foray, of I Being all That I Am, I choose as an individuation, you for example, to take part, in a physical tangible realm. This 'focus', your focus to be in its highest terms, is encoded into your energy field, into what you can call the grids of the focus. Because you know at this point, that this large focus, this large individuation that you are, with this focus, with this divine desire are going to multiply into many other points of focus. It is from this then, in what you call each life, you encode into your blueprint, as your free-will, as your life purposes to be; as your desire, an aspect of this larger desire. Yes, and that is what then plays up in your life, which is what shows up as desires! So that when you wear the veils, willfully again (always willfully my dears) you may remember what aspect of Self, you have chosen to ‘Be’, experience, expand and contribute to. Otherwise, how would you remember once you came into the realm where you wore the veil? Do you see how beautifully it works, where your free-will and divine will unite in perfect harmony, become one and the same! How what you call 'your desire' and the 'divine desire' become one and the same. This works in your realm, this magnificent plan where both are one and only seemingly independent, works on your plane through your desires! Whenever you feel within you a desire kicking in, it is your blueprint kicking in. It is a reminder of what you have planned to do. It is the Divine seeking expression through current self! It is the ways you remember, the triggers you have placed, so you remember your plans, and here your question gets answered.
You cannot suppress desires. As you fulfill or you explore, yes, you may explore desires 'within', then you do not need to experience them on the 'outside'. Or you must experience them out. It matters not, which way you do it. as each current plan, desire is fulfilled or explored within, these desires then expand and go back to the larger and larger desires to Be, and back to The Divine Will to Be. So do not try and suppress desires: because when you are told to ‘Be’ without desire, those masters are speaking from a higher level, from the larger picture. But for those of you, who still feel desires, do not suppress. Understand that the larger picture exists but that it is through understanding your desires, through exploring them, that there is what you call growth, and their evolution. It is what you have planned to do for spirit. You cannot leave it in complete by suppressing it. That must be understood. But yes, you may see…or explore it 'within' through what we call conscious living, and in that may you not need to view it 'outside'.
And many of you are going to ask, what about the so called negative desires? Of course, there is no thing like 'negative', so we use this word, for your understanding only and what we mean here, is what you refer to as negative. It will be completely relative to each one. And yes, we shall surprise you by saying that even negative desires are part of your blueprint. They are encoded by 'you'. And no it does not mean that you go out and murder your neighbor, because that is your negative desire. It does not even mean that now we have given you permission to 'indulge' in all your negative desires just because we have said its part of your blueprint! Listen carefully: Negative desires mean, they come up, when there is a reason to view, the limiting beliefs, feelings, thoughts behind them. It is to view the limiting impressions, the sanskara's. It is to view that part of the “I am not” that you have chosen to work out. That is the purpose of limiting desires, that is why they are part of your blueprint. That is why they are part of the purpose to be. So that you may remove these limiting impression for self, for humanity, for spirit itself. If you can do that, these so called negative desires have served their purpose; not by indulging in them, but in 'resolving' them within self… again this can be done by viewing them 'within' and thus not needing to be seen OUTSIDE in your physical life, otherwise no amount of suppression will help. You only postpone the inevitable and yes, you learn from viewing the results in your outside…that is fine. It is growth in the larger picture..
Yes, it is a beautiful plan and it works through such a beautiful thing: Through your very desires! Go home and see what are your desires telling you from behind the veil. What soul energies are waiting to be expressed? What soul energies are waiting to be worked out? Use desires and awareness optimally.
Ellaeenah : Thank you. Now this one, negative desires. Now you will say they come up and give me an opportunity to view my sanskara. But supposing, I wish to externally explore that. I have a negative desire to murdering someone, I go ahead and do it. What about the karma then? Divyaa: We shall tell you. These negative desires can either be explored within, through what you call conscious living. Then you become aware of the reasons. You do not need to manifest a murder, outside. But it is ok, if you do not and you want to murder, you want to learn from the outside, you will bear the responsibility. There will come learning. You will learn from that , what the reason behind the murder was. The karma is not the murder. The karma is the reason for the murder. Did you murder out of jealousy? Did you murder out of robbery? The desire is completely different. Murder is inconsequential. The karma is the reason behind it. Sitter: why does God want to experience itself endlessly? How much experience does he require? Divyaa: It is Being. It is far beyond experience. It is the divine which is not really experiencing anything. It is but a moment. We see it as how many experiences. We see it as eternity. It is the glance in the mirror, of how wonderful I am. And the I am not, is one fraction in the mirror. When you see your beauty, when you know what you are not, that one fraction! Sitter: what about negative desires like alcohol or drugs, is it just ok to say its fine.. Divyaa: The reason behind that desire must be discovered. What gives in you the rise, the desire for alcohol? All these cases, that you take, cannot be answered as just one case, because there cannot be a same answer for different cases. The desire-alcohol may be the same, but the reasons, limiting impressions, beliefs behind them are always different and that is the purpose, the ‘i am not’, that you have come to work out! You may take alcohol for a different reason from another that you need to work out. It was explained beautifully through Ellaeenah in reference to our earlier questions. The conditioning is different in each case, person. Conditioning is karma. Conditionings are your belief patterns. When you really understand these truths, we will see, and now I am speaking as Divyaa, that karma, free-will, destiny, desire, all are the same. They are different aspects of seeing the one larger truth. They are only different ways, they are only different focuses, and they are only different pictures. That is why you cannot really talk about one, or the other. And I shall take your leave.
Sitter: please don’t go, just one more question! Is this the same as the Patanjali sutra which states, that if you meditate upon your tendencies, your positive and negative, you know your past life existence. Divyaa: yes... your 'desires' and fears will now tell you what are your past life tendencies. Those which keep coming up like a pattern. Patterns are so important to understand. Because pattern is a picture, a reflection into your past life. They are un-dealt with. They are part of the “I am not”, which is not dealt with. If you can become aware of them, you can change them. Thank you. |
