Christ’s Experience in the Desert
I was uplifted into inner radiant light and felt vibrant and wondrously alive with power. I was filled with ecstasy and joy and I knew beyond all doubt that THIS POWER was the true Creator out of which all created things had been given their being.
This glorious interior harmony, peace, and sense of perfect fulfillment, needing nothing more to be added to that beautiful moment, was the very nature of the Reality – the Creative Power – giving Life to creation and existence.
What I ‘saw’, realized, perceived when in the desert.
I was lifted into another dimension of conscious perception, which enabled me to see the TRUTH concerning life and existence. I saw, lucidly and clearly, what was real and what was false in man’s thinking.
I realized that this ‘Creative Power’ I was experiencing was infinite, eternal, universal, filling all space beyond sky, oceans, earth, and all living things. I saw IT was MIND POWER.
IT was the CREATIVE POWER of MIND.
There was no point where this ‘DIVINE CREATIVE POWER OF MIND’ was not.
I realized that human mind was drawn from DIVINE CREATIVE MIND but was only a candle lit by the sun.
At times, my human sight was so spiritually heightened, I could see through rocks, earth, sand. These now appeared to be only a ‘shimmer of tiny `motes’.
I realized that nothing was really solid!
When I had moments of doubt that this could be so, the changes in the phenomena stopped taking place, and much later, I discovered that:
- my thoughts, if strongly imbued with CONVICTION
- could effect changes in the ‘shimmer of motes’
(what science presently calls electrically charged particles.) - and therefore produce changes
- in the appearance of the rock or whatever I was studying.
It was at this point, that I came to realize the powerful effect that CONVICTION or unwavering FAITH had on the environment when stating a command or even a belief.
What was even more startling was my mind-opening, ‘cosmic consciousness’ realisation that all I had been witnessing was really the ‘Creative Power’ of Divine Mind Itself made visible in the ‘shimmer of tiny motes’.
Not only this, its appearance could be profoundly affected by the activity of human thought.
I realized there was nothing solid in the universe, everything visible was manifesting a differing ‘state of consciousness’ which determined the composition and form of the ‘shimmer of motes’.
Therefore, all outer form was an expression of the inner consciousness.
LIFE and CONSCIOUSNESS, I realized, were one and the same thing.
It was impossible to say ‘This is LIFE’ and ‘That is CONSCIOUSNESS’.
