Releasing the idea of trying to be something else, something more, and allowing yourself to become one with all that exists is a true possibility for you. It does have to do with believing enough in yourself, that who you are in this moment is enough without reaching any further. It is believing you are ready to release the idea of trying to be a certain way, of pushing yourself, and realizing that you at this moment are ready for everything.

The secret to truly channel the Ascended Masters and Angels, and to bring through clear and pure messages, is to purify your physical, emotional and mental bodies. If this requirement is not given, then the messages coming through will be distorted and as a result illusionary. The clearer we are within self, the clearer a channel we will be. A channel is only as clear as his consciousness. Whatever blind spots and deficiencies we have in our own consciousness, these will be reflected in our channelings.
Personal Statement: It is my belief that as your Official Guide on Enlightenment, I should share some of my personal background and experiences so that you can get to know me and know where I stand. I've had a life full of suffering but if you are to truly know blessings, you need to go through suffering and triumph over it. I personally don't think you can overcome real crises without acquiring spirituality. If anyone wishes to contact me, please email me at jerrypollock@bellsouth.net or call me at 561-735-7958 Summaryr
As Paramahansa Yogananda, the Indian guru, said, “Life is a battlefield.” The ultimate advice to the soldier on the “battle field of life” comes from Krishna to Arjuna in the Bhagavad-Gita, when He said: tasmat sarvesu kalesu mam anusmara yudhya carnmayy arpita-mano-buddhir mam evaishyasy asamsayah Translated into English, this means: “Therefore, Arjuna, you should always think of Me and at the same time carry out your prescribed duty of fighting. With your activities dedicated to Me and your mind and intelligence fixed on Me, you will attai Me without doubt.”
"Blessed our we who can laugh at ourselves for we shall never cease to be amused." I recently went to see Swami Beyondananda, the Cosmic Comic, and he told us, "Imagine that the creator is watching the comedy channel, and WE are what's on." Laughter is a wonderful thing. It is healing and heart opening, it lowers our blood pressure and raises our spirits. Like some of you, I was brought up in a family where feelings of anger, fear and sadness were not welcomed. However, those
For your enjoyment, here are some affirmations that you can work with to generate personal power. Say them out loud at least twice a day, for 21 days – without missing a day. If you miss a day, start over again from day one. It is unwritten law of the mind that whatever we do for 21 days straight, without interruption, becomes a habit in the subconscious mind. Whatever we can make into a habit, it will be ours for the rest of our lives! 1. I own my personal power 100% in service of God and unconditional love.
There has been a Matrix on the Earth for thousands and thousands of years. Many of you may realize this to some degree, yet for most people it remains unknown. From our "normal" state of mind, the realization that we have been living in a Matrix seems quite unfathomable. How can our existence ...
Similarly to our physical sun whose light can be broken up into its seven component colors, the Solar Logos of our system is a source of seven great cosmic Rays of spiritual light. These Rays penetrate our microcosm, building up and enriching on of the higher bodies of our microcosm, our causal ...
The plane next above the buddhic plane is the so-called atmic plane, or plane of Atma. On the atmic plane there is total freedom and bliss. Here even the limitations of the Soul body are broken through. This is a place of beingness where the Soul knows that there are yet vaster realms of beingness to explore. One needs to develop their atmic senses to experience this dimension of reality. The Integrated Ascended Master realizes that integrated ascension is the process of ascending through all these higher planes of reality, which are but signposts on the way back Home to God.
“Evil company demeans and debases an individual.” – Sai Baba It cannot be emphasized highly enough how important it is to choose wisely the company you spend your time with. The people you hang out with will either pull you up or pull you down. As the Hindu guru Paramahansa Yoganada said, “In the company of other truth seekers it will be easier for you to meditate and think of God.”
The Chakras are positioned in our etheric body along the spinal column at major nerve centers. They form a central part of our esoteric anatomy. Their Hindu names are as follows: Crown Chakra: Sahasrarar Third Eye Chakra: Ajnar Throat Chakra: Vishuddhar Heart Chakra: Anahatar Solar Plexus Chakra: Manipurar Sacral Chakra: Swadhisthanar Root or Base Chakra: Muladhara
The sixth initiation is called the “ascension initiation.” From a smaller angle and perspective, the process of ascension begins at the sixth initiation and is completed at the seventh initiation. However, from a bigger perspective, the process of ascension beings with the probationary path and continues into cosmic realms and initiations that are infinitely higher than the seventh level of initiation.
I had been wanting for awhile to experience a day without speaking. I would like to go even longer, but I have three small children and they wouldn’t appreciate it. I did decide to try it for one day. I decided the night before, and only my eldest son (7 years old) was awake. I told him what I had planned for the next day. He didn’t have any questions for me. After he went to sleep, I wrote a little note for him to read to his younger sisters (5 and 3 years old) i
The Kabbala refers to the Elohim as the Divine Mother and to Yod Hay Vau Hay as the Divine Father. Chanting both these powerful and divine names together creates a very powerful, beautiful and integrated mantra. It connects us with Father/Mother God, our Creator. Find a comfortable posture, either lying down or sitting up, whatever you prefer. But be sure to keep your spine straight so the energies can flow unhindered. Close your eyes and follow the natural flow of your breath for a moment or two, as you calm down and settle into the stillness.
One of the most powerful and beautiful prayers in the world is The Great Invocation. It is both a prayer and invocation. It was given to the world by the Master Djwhal Khul through Alice A. Bailey. The Integrated Ascended Master makes this prayer and invocation part of his daily routine. From the point of Light within the Mind of Godr Let light stream forth into the minds of men. Let Light descend on Earth. From the point of Love within the Heart of Godr Let Love stream forth into the hearts of men. May Christ return to Earth. From the center where the Will of God is knownr
The fourth initiation is esoterically called the crucifixion because it is at this initiation that one is crucified in the sense of outer supports being stripped away. All that is left then to hold on to is one’s inner relationship to self, God and the Masters.
Human spiritual enlightenment occurs when your consciousness permanently expands beyond the limits of your body and your mind’s self-created identity. The energetic membranes between the subconscious, conscious and superconscious levels of the mind dissolve. As an enlightened human, you take ...
The longer I live the more I realize that things are always changing around us; whether or not we want to admit it. We don’t like change. It must be in our genetic makeup to want to keep things like they are. Even my five year old grandson hates change. It’s just normal.r

The fifth initiation is esoterically called the Monadic merger. The third initiation is called the Soul merge, for it is this initiation that marks the moment when the inca ated Soul begins to identify itself with the Oversoul. Now, the fifth initiation is called the Monadic merger, for it is as this initiation that the inca ated Soul begins to know himself as the Monad.
The Arcturians are a very advanced and God-pure civilization. They are headed by the Lord and Lady of Arcturus. They have transcended fear and the illusion of separation and have dedicated their life and consciousness to service. Part of their service work includes Planet Earth and helping the human race to evolve. A lot of the advanced technologies that we find on Earth are inspired by the Arcturians. But they are also engaged in helping to raise the collective consciousness of humanity as a whole. They communicate with people mostly via telepathy, channelling or dreams.
It was a cool April evening and I was on my way to the New Hope Metaphysical Societyâs monthly meeting. Driving up there, it struck me that I hadnât had a re-incarnational experience in a long time. This thought was triggered by the fact that the speaker for the evening would be speaking about reincarnation, past lives and her work as a past life therapist. She would also be leading the group into a past life regression. n nn I was excited by this fact, because I knew the
The path of ascension is intimately connected with the path of initiation. Essentially, an initiation is an expansion of consciousness. The higher our level of initiation, the more evolved and expanded our consciousness will be. Our level of initiation is measured in light or light quotient. Building light quotient means to anchor greater and greater frequencies of living light into each of our cells. Light is a key attribute of Spirit. An enlightened being is someone who has anchored a certain measure of light into his consciousness and four-body-system.
During the course of a day, you can have hundreds even thousands of thoughts, each one becoming the “now” of the moment. IBM devised a computer that drew a tie with the human brain of Russian chess champio Gary Kasparov but could that IBM computer be a match for Kasparov’s intelligent soul? Discover where intelligence, wisdom, thought, voice, love, passion, memory, imagination, happiness, fantasy, anger, jealousy, and doubt originate and how they are expressed by our souls and human brains.
The logoic plane is the plane of total oneness. Upon the logoic plane we are put in touch with the Plan of God and are at complete oneness with that divine intent and purpose. We know ourselves to be the God Self or Mighty I AM Presence and have completely transcended the illusion of form. We have become love/wisdom itself. Our will has become the will-to-good which is the will of God. Here even the Soul itself has merged into oneness with all life while still maintaining a sense of individuality.
Essentially, the seventh initiation is the goal of every initiate because it means freedom from the wheel of rebirth. It is the nirvana of the Buddhist, the Samadhi of the meditator, and the liberation of the yogi. So in essence, the seventh initiation marks freedom from rebirth which is a very celebrative moment in the evolutionary journey of the Soul, however, it is important to understand that even though one may take the seventh level of initiation, this does not mean that one has mastered one’s four lower bodies and consciousness. So in a sense, the real work only just begins!
I am not an expert in Feng Shui. I really don’t believe it is possible for a Westerner to BE an expert in Feng Shui. Feng Shui is a Chinese philosophy. It is totally Eastern in nature and, therefore, not easy to understand in our minds.
I rarely write an article that isn't planned out to the inth degree. This one is one of those rare ones so if I seem a little disconnected, excuse me. I don't intend to be disconnected; the purpose of this article is CONNECTION; our's and God's.
When we like someone, we may be afraid to approach them. We may have developed a crush and feelings toward them, but because of our fear of rejection, we haven’t spoken to them about the possibility of getting together. When we really like someone, approaching them feels even hard because they have become something more to us. We may imagine what they would be like or simply feel good when we see them. But how does a person go up to another person and really say what they want to say?
Part of becoming an Integrated Ascended Master is to learn and master our subconscious mind in service of the conscious mind and Superconscious mind. Most people are run by their subconscious mind and react in life based on the programs that happen to be running in their subconscious mind and which are mostly detrimental in nature. A master responds consciously from the conscious mind whereas a victim reacts on automatic pilot from the subconscious mind.

We are at the door to 12/21/2012. What will happen next? Will we open it and step through or will we, somehow, miss the whole thing? I have said in past articles that the fear mongers have used the date of the Galactic Convergence to scare humans half to death. Books are written and sold every day on how to survive the global cataclysm that is about to happen. IS something terrible going to happen to us on that date; probably not. As I have said before, some people won’t even notice any change at all.r
Beloved Presence of God, Christ, Holy Spirit, all the Ascended Masters and Angels of Light and Protection (direct the prayer to whomever you feel guided to) I hereby ask for protection on all levels of my being. I ask for a golden light or golden dome of protection to surround me, day and night, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year, shielding off any and all negative energies and influences on any level. I ask and pray to be protected on a mental, emotional, etheric and physical body level from everything and everyone that is not serving the Light.
This is one of my most important talks because it centers around a commonly misunderstood and ominous topic. Spiritual bankruptcy is potentially terminal for the person with the problem, and it can also destroy the lives of people around them. Everyone, including and especially the person devoid ...
If you are a world traveler and you go from one country to another searching for something you can’t identify perhaps you are searching for your tribe. There is closeness between people of like thought that cannot be explained. It reaches out to others without conscious effort.
Each of us in truth is Spirit, or Monad. The Monad is also called the Mighty I AM Presence or Ete al Self. This is our God Self from which we, as Souls, first spring forth. The Bible actually refers to this occult fact when the Master Jesus said, “No one shall go unto the Father lest they first come from the Father.” The Monad is often occultly referred to as the “Father.” It is our divine destiny to return to that Spiritual state. The path of return is called ascension.
Can you even begin to imagine how you can live forever? God does it. Your God-given soul does it. Could it happen now, if now is the coming of a new evolutionary human being? There is only one prerequisite — live a spiritual life so God will permit your entrance into this second Garden of Eden. Learn with scientist/spiritualist Jerry Pollock who has a series of imaginary interviews with Methuselah's Divine soul in the spirit world while Jerry's wife Marcia's soul joins in on the conversation. Meeting of the Souls:r
A couple were feeling very lonely and prayed to God for a son. The couple were granted a son, and began a great celebration. “You are so fortunate to have borne a child this late in life”, said a neighbor. In the father's stead, a wise man answered with the simple reply, "Maybe".
The core-fear matrix removal program is an exciting program that allows the Ascended Masters on the inner plane to pull out core fear from our subconscious mind and energy system. This is how it works: Call forth Djwhal Khul or any Ascended Master that you feel a strong resonance with, and ask them to install the core-fear matrix removal program in your energy system for the purpose of removing fear-based energies.
Usually, the more we advance on the Spiritual path, the more Spiritual dreams we will have.
The Higher Self is the key to getting in tune with your true purpose in life. nnEveryone has a purpose. nnIt is that which gives your life a deep and true meaning and value. nnThe Higher Self is aligned with your highest purpose and so when you are aligned with your Higher Self you automatically are aligned with your highest, truest purpose.nnFrom the consciousness of the Higher Self you are able to see clearly what it is that you came to this planet to do. nnJust as importan
It goes without saying that if you don’t know who you are, who you really are, you won’t be able to get much out of life or enjoy true happiness. I mean, it’s almost like being completely lost in a daze or a storm or in the middle of the ocean or desert. A lost cause. Now the burning question is…. Are we really aware of our true identities? And what are the positive indications to that? Who’s to say this identity we hold dear now is not an illusion? And according to many eastern philosophies and religions, it indeed is an illusion, and a very short-lived one, for that matter.
Affirmations are statements you say to yourself out loud to program the subconscious and conscious minds with a desired reality. For your enjoyment, here are some affirmations to help you develop God purity. 1. I am unconditionally loving and harmless at all times. 2. I let go of all attack thoughts and judgments. 3. I give up all defensiveness, power struggles and ego battles. 4. I am kind and gentle in Spirit. 5. I am humble and filled with humility. 6. I practice egolessness, selflessness, patience, forgiveness, God-purity and integrity in all ways and all things.r
