Where did God come from?
NOTE: This
is an excerpt from the book The
Least You Should Know About Life.
You live in the material universe, which is made from energies that
vibrate within a certain spectrum. Your physical senses can detect only
the lowest range of this spectrum, namely the matter, or physical, universe.
Your conscious mind, conscious self, has the capacity to tune in to
and experience higher levels than what can be detected by the senses.
Above this physical spectrum is the emotional energies, above that the
mental and above that the identity level.
As you go beyond the four levels of the material universe, you reach
the lowest level of the spiritual realm. In this realm there is a large
number of spiritual Beings. Some of these are the Beings who created
the material universe, including planet Earth. A common name for these
is Elohim, a plural name for God used in the Old Testament. Some of
the spiritual Beings have descended into physical embodiment but have
now ascended back to the spiritual realm. When you balance all karma,
resolve all false beliefs by putting on the mind of Christ and fulfill
your original reason for coming to Earth, you too can become an ascended
Being or ascended master.
After you ascend, you become a spiritual, or an immortal Being, meaning
that you do not have to come back into embodiment on Earth. You then
have two options. You can choose to continue your personal growth and
rise up through the various levels of the spiritual realm until you
reach the very highest level of consciousness, normally called God consciousness.
Jesus said, “Ye are Gods” (John 10:34) because you have
the potential to reach the full God consciousness. Your second option
is to temporarily set aside your own growth and serve to help those
on Earth who have not yet ascended. You then become a spiritual teacher
for unascended beings. Jesus, Krishna and the Buddha are the most well-known
examples of such teachers.
As you go up through the levels of the spiritual realm, you eventually
reach the highest level of the world of form. Here you find the highest
possible vibration of the Ma-ter Light. If you go beyond that level,
you reach the Being who created the world of form. This is what most
religions call the supreme God or the Creator.
Most religions teach that there is nothing beyond the Creator. However,
if that is true then where did the Creator come from? In reality, there
is a level beyond the Creator, namely what is called the Allness. The
reason this level is unknown to most people is that there are no words,
images or even concepts in the material realm that can describe the
Allness. In fact, while you are still on Earth, it is not possible for
you to fully understand the state of consciousness that exists in the
Allness. The reason for this will become clear shortly.
In the Allness there are self-conscious, intelligent Beings, but they
do not see themselves as separated from each other or from God. They
know they are God, are expressions of God, for in the Allness everything
is clearly seen as an expression of God. In the Allness there is still
only one God, but there are many expressions of that One. The illusion
that something or someone could be separated from God is impossible
in the Allness. The Beings in the Allness cannot build a sense of identity
as separate Beings and have not experienced anything separated from
the Allness—for nothing can truly be outside of all there is.
The Beings in the Allness determined that there was value in creating
a world in which separation was possible. Thus, an individual being
could start out with a very limited sense of identity as a separate
being. It could then grow in self-awareness until it reached the consciousness
of the Allness. This Being could then enter the Allness with an awareness
of what it was like to feel separated from the Allness, thereby having
a greater appreciation for the Allness.
The Being who created the world of form in which you live was once one
of the Beings in the Allness. This Being volunteered to temporarily
set itself aside from the Allness and create – out of its own
Being and consciousness – a world that seems to be separate from
the Allness. In this world can exist separate forms, forms that do not
seem to be expressions of the One God. Also, there can exist separate
beings, beings who are not consciously aware that they are expressions
of the one God.
These beings can then start out with a limited sense of identity and
self-awareness in which they think they are separated from their source,
from each other and from the world in which they live. By gradually
rising to higher levels of consciousness, they will eventually come
to see the oneness of all life. They can then either enter the Allness
with full God consciousness or they can become Creators of other worlds
of form. Yet until such a being reaches the level of God consciousness,
it simply cannot fathom the Allness. Obviously, you are one of the beings
who was created with a limited self-awareness but with an infinite potential
to expand that self-awareness. That expansion of self-awareness is the
essential purpose behind the creation of the world of form. Thus, it
is the overall purpose of life.
