We Take You AS You Are

T/R: Mark Rogers

June 16, 2005

 

Prayer: Divine Parents, once again we approach you as the children of yours that we are. We know that you would reach for us and embrace us in whatever state we may find ourselves. We would ask you for your support in this process and at this time, but we are certain of your willingness to provide this for us and we are certain that you are willing to embrace us whenever we gesture to approach you. So thank you in advance for your embrace and help us to stay focused and centered and to glean as much as we can from this communion that we both seek together, thank you.

Machiventa: Well this is Machiventa, and I would extend myself to bring you the assurance that we will in fact take you as you are at any time that you seek to approach us. We are fully aware that you are animal beings as well as spiritual beings and that this state of your dual nature by its very definition implies that you will be navigating between your material needs and your spiritual desires. We will never cease to reach towards you in hopes of your recognition and expect that we will encounter varied degrees of success as the demands upon your physical vehicles are a part of the mix that we encounter.

You see this factor at play when you experience transient states of illness or disease. You find yourselves dwelling more in your physical nature and then at other times with your physical needs having been satisfied, you find yourselves able to engage more heavily with your spiritual component. We are in full realization of this ebb and flow, this innate balance, and even struggle between your material component and your spiritual component and will always honor you wherever we may find you.

The very fact that you are willing to reach out and engage in spirit when the physical demands of your vehicle are great is a tribute to your individual desires of the soul. This life for you is your most challenging encounter in balancing the aspects of your physical nature and your divine nature. The demands on your physical vehicle are great in time and space that you find yourselves in and therefore we find it impressive when you are able to rise above these material struggles at all in your lives and on your world.

Many of the physical demands made upon you are the result of your environment or the condition of your vehicle and also a percentage of your distractions are the result of your personal choices about how you treat your vehicle and what you choose to do with it. We know full well that you are chemical beings and that this balance of chemistry within your vehicle is of great influence to you as you simply attempt to exist. Every factor that you can conceive of influences your stability and balance in this regard from the sights you see, the sounds you hear, the smells you experience, the sensations of touch and the presence of spirit.

All these factors are stimuli which you must process, interpret, encounter and navigate. I encourage you to observe well the interplay of these phenomenon as I have said, this is your most challenging encounter with such stimuli as you will experience on this world. As you progress from this world towards your eventual goal of the First Source and Center, you experience less and less the external pressures and distractions that you encounter in this experience and truly it is said that if you can maintain your spiritual awareness and focus during this intensive trial, you surely will have solid footing as you proceed onward in your evolutionary journey. It may be helpful during these times of navigation for you to realize that each one of these external influences makes certain demands upon you but in the end it is your personal choices and decisions which give priority to these individual demands and therefore take a certain percentage of your available resources to deal with these demands. The more spiritualized you become, the more awareness you have that these are simply external requests for your attention and for your delegation of resources and the decision is yours as to whether you respond to these requests and divert your energies in such direction.

It is not necessarily required of you that you respond to all these external requests, but rather sort them out with an eye toward spiritual priorities over material needs. You have the power within you each to prioritize between these individual demands and decide which ones are worthy of your focus and attention and which ones should be denied access to your energies. You are aware of this in your daily lives, constantly prioritizing which external signals you will respond to, which telephone calls, doorbells, television shows, individual conversations you will invest yourselves in and which ones you decline to become involved with.

Likewise from spiritual vantage point, you will learn to prioritize the signals that you encounter from your material vehicle as well as the environment you find yourselves in and you will gain more control over where your energies become invested and which aspects of your being you choose to foster and which you choose to demote to a level of less significance. As you are coming to realize, your life at this time is all about choice. Your individual choice as to which direction you will go and how you will proceed is what you are here to engage in and this will extend with you as you proceed on your eternal spiritual career.

I encourage you all to become in greater awareness of the many choices you are faced with regularly and how you react to these choices, which ones you give priority and which ones you overlook, realizing that your existence here is a matter of your own choosing, empowers you to make the choices you see fit for your development and forgo those options you see as un-beneficial or detrimental to your overall ascension career. In the end you become known by your choices, you become known by your priorities.

We see each of you as a result of the choices you have made and the priorities you have established in your lives, not any single one choice but the pattern of priority and the pattern of choice indicates your alignment with spirit and your resolve to take your individual mission seriously, to make those choices to promote such a mission and as well the discipline you employ in abstaining from those choices you see as a drain on your energy. The choice you each have made to be here even in this hour, is regarded as another symbol to those who witness, that you are dedicated, that you are willing and you are ready for such truths such as these in your lives. Therefore do such truths becomes available to you, not to draw you and entice you, but rather as a result of your willingness and your desires. We will take you where you are, when you are, wherever you desire to reach out in spirit. Do not engage in the tendency to consider yourselves unworthy at any time. It is a classic human emotion to consider yourself unready or unworthy as a result of your balance between the physical and the spirit, but I encourage you to never short yourselves by allowing this negative energy drain to be entertained. Forsake that option as it arisies to you and rather choose the option that spirit will always embrace you, never forsake you, always meet you where you are, whether you are ill or healthy, whether you are distracted or focused, spirit will be there if only you will make the choice.

I would conclude my statement there but as I have mentioned before I would willingly entertain questions or dialogue with any of you whom I consider my comrades in this journey as we desire a deeper communication, so I make the offer and myself available.

Comment: I would like to express my appreciation on such clarity on making choices and prioritizing, it was very helpful.

Machiventa: You are welcome. Were it not for your choice to be here that could not have been made so, therefore I honor your choice for being present and listening with an open heart so that these words might be received, thank you [thank you].

Comment: I also appreciate your comments tonight about making choices and in a way it reminds me of some of our religious training which speaks about choices but in different words such as " thou shalt not", and urging us to do good and I noticed you did not use any of that kind of language but approached it from a more internal perspective in that we know that we have these choices to reach upward to spirit or downwards towards the physical and I appreciate a more positive approach which shows me I have the opportunity to do the better way as I have some understanding of evil or iniquity but I appreciate the more positive approach.

Machiventa: I recognize your observation and would draw the distinction more clearly. The human mind frame, the human parental mind frame in particular, is oriented towards the telling of their children the many things not to engage in and while they see this approach as proper and right for attempting to guide their children’s choices, you will discover that such an approach is not the divine approach. Your divine parents will never rebuke you or reprimand you or in any way even make mention of your failures, rather they draw you toward them in the praise and in the love that they would extend to you as a result of your choice to approach them and the choices you would make and position you to receive their spiritual guidance.

Human beings have thought it more effective over time to make definitive rules and commandments regarding what are individual personal choices whereas your divine parents await your choices and them reward your choices with their manifestation of love and their spirit presence of peace. These are such powerful drawing factors that it becomes evident to those who encounter them that truly this is the way and of their own accord without any reprimand, they choose good over the opposite. Therefore you will never hear those on our side of the curtain condemn you or others for having made choices which were unhelpful in your individual processes.

Rather you will hear plenty of encouragement for a more spiritual option to be exercised and you will find over time this approach is far more effective that the stern commandments or rebukes offered by those who would assume material authority over you. I applaud your recognition of this distinction and would suggest that you individually make use of this same approach whether with your circle of intimate individuals or your approach toward your fellow man in general. You will find this more positive, more appealing approach to be the more effective one in the long run than to point out where another has erred or fallen short, thank you.

Comment: Thank you, I hope I can bring this perspective into parenting and to reflect my vision of my heavenly Father as being a Father of love to my children and to get away of the olden concept of a wrathful and angry punishing God which I now know is not the truth but is just a human creation. How easy it is for us to slip into that mode when our children misbehave and perhaps I need to take a deep breath and think of how our Master would always take the positive approach and illumine the truth in another’s point of view so as to blot out their error.

Machiventa: Well said my friend and I would encourage all who would hear these words to adopt such an attitude overall, not just in the role of parent or superior, but to realize that such an attitude portrays a new reality to this world, a new state of being that it is your privilege and responsibility to usher in. The truth is you have the example of Michael in your text how he functioned therein. Now it is your turn, now it up to each of you to portray this new approach, this higher reality, this more ideal state of being.

You who sense it, you who feel it, you who are aware of it in your lives. It is you who are responsible for ushering this new state of being into reality. Do not wait for another to step forward. Assume this as your role. Welcome this as your privilege. portray this as your honor. The desire that you feel in your heart to manifest such a reality is there for a purpose. Avail yourselves of the stirrings of your hearts, the desires of your soul. Therein you will find your strength, your comfort, your peace and therein this world will find a new reality, a greater destiny, an enlarged understanding of the characteristics and nature of your divine parents. What a joy to embrace such a role as is before you and I encourage you all to embrace this in your lives, to seek this in your stillness, to petition this of your parents and then to make it so in your lives. Do this for yourselves and do this for your parents whose desire it is.

I would release you all from this classroom and bid you farewell and peace in your journey and support as you make this new reality, as you fashion this new ideal on your world. I pledge my support to you and I can tell you plainly as you know in your hearts, you have the support of your divine parents. They provide you with everything and they would see this manifestation be made real through you. I will take my leave. Thank you all.
